You forgot
Chapter 1: an oddly nice routine day
Darkness, silence, nothing, a void engulfed amethyst; she looked around trying to find someone.
"Huh, this is weird, usually he would have shown up by now" Amethyst thought "YO STEVEN!YOU THERE?!" she shouts at the void expecting an answer, none came.
She begins to think, with a weird mix of relief and terror, that maybe he finally grew tired of asking her when are they coming back. relived that maybe she no longer has to doge his question about what happen the day they left, the day she saw horror in Garnet's eyes for the first time, how she saw Peridots hypothetical heart shatter before her, the pure rage in Lapis' eyes, and heard the unbelievable sobs of Pearl. Maybe now she can start to forget about all that.
Terror comes from the thought that maybe he figured it out, that the reason he can only talk to her and not the others is because she is the only one left? That she had something to do with what happened.
A loud shrieking sound echoes in the darkness, taking amethyst out of her thoughts a blue lights consumes her has the sound gets louder.
She opens her eyes to a very bright, very loud and very obnoxious screen.
"Amethyst, provisional number H20-1666FG i'm complying with your earlier request to 'wake you up' from your…earthly ritual known as 'sleeping' said the gem on the bright screen.
Amethyst groaned "Good morning to you too BP", she said as she rubbed her eyes.
The gem on the screen groaned in frustration "I told you already for the hundredth time… MY NAME IS NOT "BP" OR "bluedot" OR "berrydot" IT IS BLUE PERIDOT FACET 789 CUT 4 , AND YOU SHOULD ADRESS ME HAS SUCH!" screamed the gem in the screen
Amethyst pushed away the screen floating in front of her face, annoyed from Blue Peridot's screams "Geez I get it, I get it, stop screaming already…no need to be so mad about it"
Blue Peridot was about to scream again when a few grunts and a shuffle beside Amethyst called her attention "ugh…is that berridot?" said a pearl under the sheets. Somehow Blue Peridot got even bluer as she tried to form words, the pearl simply stared at her, and then she stuck her long tongue out of her mouth and winked at the gem on the screen, causing her to fall from her chair.
Amethyst snorted at this, "nice one dude.", she said while looking under the sheets. There she found a pearl with a long violet mane that covered her naked body, a playful smile adorned here face, hazel eyes half closed look back at Amethyst "Greetings my brave warrior." she said sleepily. Amethyst smiled back at her "morning polvoron."
"That's one of those…sweets? Things, right?" asked the pearl.
"You know it babe", responded amethyst, she then leaned in and kissed her cheek, to that the pearl chuckled.
"Looks like you fried BPs brain", said amethyst.
The pearl frowned a little "I…guess? What's brain?" asked the pearl.
"Nevermind",responded amethyst "Ready to go back to work?"
"Certainly! Would you like me bring you that soupy liquid you like?" She asked amethyst while standing from the bed.
Amethyst smiled widely at this "OH YES PLEASE" she said beaming.
The pearl gem flashes brightly and her clothes appear over her, it was a black crop top with purple ovals over her breasts, and a long purple skirt that stopped at her ankles, were one could see pink heaters around her feet "Oh? Someone woke up in a good mood" the pearl teased.
Amethyst looked to the other side, hiding her blush and smile, she has to admit she feels oddly well compared to every other day she gets enough free time for a nap,wich wasn't common…at all. But she did get to have anything she wanted!...as long it didn't interrupted her job, wich was …boring. Just standing around, keeping an eye out for trouble that never appeared, and that's when she got to be out of her office, she hated her office.
"Yeah…I guess I just woke up on the good side of the bed this time." sighed Amethyst.
"There is a good side of the- oh, is that another phrase of yours?" Asked the pearl.
Amethyst nodded, the pearl smiled at her and proceeded to prepare herself for her job, which consisted of sitting on the floor beside Amethyst's chair, serve her motor oil in her glass and take notes of whatever Amethyst needed her to take notes of, which reminded her.
"Hey Blue Peridot, you still there?" asked Amethyst to the screen that floated beside her bed, the screen showed the technician rising from under her desk "Is she gone?" she asked, embarrassed.
"She is getting ready for our turn." responded Amethyst while picking her nose.
Blue Peridot frowned in disgust "Honestly why must you train your pearl to act like such a…freak?"
To this Amethyst snorted "First of all. The only thing I taught her so far are nicknames, and second, come on! Don't tell me you don't like it." teased Amethyst.
The technician blushed as she turned her head away from the screen, she cleared her throat. "Anyway...shall I inform you of this cycle schedule?"
"Shoot them, dot!"
The technician groaned at the nick name "Right…well this cycle will be surprisingly quiet." she said has she looked at her scanner.
"One of Blue Diamond's pearls will arrive at the hangar station on 1.5 fractions of cycle in preparation for the return of our beloved Diamond" sighed Blue Peridot.
While BP gave her the details of the arrival, amethyst looked back at her pearl who was about to leave to wait for her at her office, she lazily waved good bye at her , and the pearl waved back before leaving her quarters.
"Later we will receive some prisoners from one of the colonies of sector beta 2. Their gems will be on custody of amethyst number 832 cut 4 and 833 cut 4."
"Ugh…the jerktwins"interrupted amethyst. "You shouldn't insult your comrades in that manner", reprimanded blue peridot.
"Insult? Have you heard what those two idiots call me when they think I can't hear them!?" amethyst raised her voice.
"Well…they aren't saying anything false…you are a defective gem that managed to get a high rank…I suppose they are expressing their frustration in the only form that is accessible to them, for now…you should be thankful they can't do anything else." stated the technician.
Amethyst frowned and huffed through her nostrils, this wasn't the first time someone here mentioned her defect, she's gotten used to it, she simply flip's them off and carries on with her duties, but the one thing she still got to her was when someone doubted her capabilities.
"What? You think I can't kick their butts?"
"I think you wouldn't have a chance…yes that is correct." responded Blue Peridot as a matter of fact.
"Do you want me to go there and prove it to you personally?" said Amethyst in a cold tone.
"EEP-eh that won't be necessary."
"Thought so… so where am i stationed today?"
"Hmm… this cycle you are assigned to office work"
"Ugh can't you give me something else? I'll die of boredom in the office."
"You know im not in charge of the schedule; please stop asking."
A defeated amethyst responded "fiinee."
Blue peridot nodded as a response "That should be all for this cycle, if something out of schedule appears I will let you know… peridot facet 789 cut 4 out." the technician crossed her arms to make the diamond salute at Amethyst, she saluted back and closed the screen before her.
Amethyst sighed and relaxed back on her bed, she has received her assignments from that gem ever since she was assigned here, she is so similar to peri, but she is…colder, she noticed from day one.
Amethyst looks around her room, a complete mess, just like she likes this was all fake, she knew, this room can change its appearance at her will, like Rose's room. Amethyst stands up from her bed, the bed immediately disappears, her gem starts to glow and her clothes appear around her body. A jumpsuit with white boots, her top was a deep blue and her lower half was black, at her center stands the symbol of her new leader, blue diamond. Amethyst pressed a button beside her and the wall in front of her faded away showing a panoramic view of the city, in the background was homeworld, a planet she thought she would never see in her life, at least not in this situation. Honestly she used to fantasize about it when Pearl or Rose told her how the planet was. Maybe one day she would lead an invading force, now she is on one of their moons working has a guard.
She looks outside the window, contemplating how she ended up where she was now, the things she has done and the life she left behind, she reminds herself why she is doing this, she sighs softly "It will be worth it." she promises to herself.
