I'm at Soup!
A fiction short by DragShot

There she was, a green individual with a peridot gemstone in her forehead. Cybernetic add-ons were present in her arms and legs.

Her battle ship was parked in a beach, in front of a small house and 4 other individuals, which kept themselves in their positions, unmoving, nervous due to the menacing giant green hand pointing with its finger at them. One of them was a garnet fusion, the other was a pearl showing slight sign of defectiveness, next to her was what seemed to be a sort of 'overcooked' kindergarten-made amethyst, and finally what seemed to be a simple human sibling.

Peridot formed a screen with her floating fingers and performed a call. She needed her here. She was supposed to be here in first place.

Where in the gem homeworld was she!?

- Eh... hello? - talked Peridot to the projected image of a orange jasper gem, with fluffy white hair.

- Hey, nerd. What's up? - the Jasper replied.

- I need your help with these gems, can you come here? - she asked, preparing the warship engines to perform a straight shoot.

- E-I can't - the Jasper replied, while scratching the back of her head - I'm buying clothes.

- What do you even need that for? - the shot impacted the beach gems, but they where protected by a suddenly summoned big rose shield - Nevermind, just hurry up and come over here.

- But I can't find them - replied Jasper with an awkward tone - There's only soup.

- What do you mean there's only soup? - asked the green gem, while making the warship fire in dispersion.

- I mean there's only soup! - said Jasper, a bit irritated.

- Then get outta the soup aisle, you clod! - scowled Peridot, jumping down from the ship to land on the soft beach sand.

- Hey, you don't have to shout at me! - replied Jasper, now annoyed.

The orange beefy gem walked in an odd way through the store to a nearby aisle.

- ... There's more soup. - she announced.

- Whatd'ya mean there's more soup!? - the green dorito was growing impatient, watching the garnet fusion run towards her.

- There's just more SOUP! - answered the big cheeto puff.

- Go into the next aisle! - requested her, stabbing the fusion with a gem destabilizer she pulled out in the last second. A crack noise could be heard shortly after, and then the gem fusion was no more.

- There's still soup! - replied the orange gem.

- Jasper, where are YOU right now!? - asked Peridot, while the fingers in her right hand aligned to form an electro canon, charging a shot.

- I'm at SOUP! - was heard from the screen.

- Whatd'ya mean you're AT SOUP!? - an explosion could be head, two of the gems yelling in pain and poofing back to their gemstones.

- I MEAN I'M AT SOUP! - replied an angry Jasper.

- WHAT STORE ARE YOU IN!? - asked Peridot, looking even more green than she was from the irritation while she was walking forward and picking up the remaining gemstones.

- I'M AT THE SOUP STORE! - shouted Jasper.

Peridot stopped dead on her tracks, dropped the gemstones and the scared child, while watching incredulous to the gem at the other side of the video call.

She facepalmed, furiously.

- WHY ARE YOU BUYING CLOTHES AT THE SOUP STORE!? - shouted Peridot in absolute exasperation.

- FUUUCK YOUUU! - was the only response Jasper could shout before the call was cut ended.

NA: Yeah, yeah, the plot wasn't soupposed to make sense in first place. I hope you liked it!
