The wind blew Kyanite's sky blue pig tails. In her hands was the latest science fiction novel. She sighed and looked out the window. "Kyan!" Her father called. The girl stood and put her book on the table beside her queen sized bed.

"Yes Father?" She answered like the obedient girl she was supposed to be.

"One day, the universe will be mine. That day will be today. You will join me." He said, with a wide smile. "By the way, who is that at your window?"

"Th-That's Jordan, Father." Kyanite said, with her cheeks turning pink.

"He is human. Gems and Humans cannot be in love. It doesn't end well for the gem side." Her father said, making an angry scowl.

"I love him Father. I can't ignore how he makes my heart jump." the bluette said as she closed her eyes and put her hands over the place where her heart would be. Kyanite opened her eyes to see her father's hand come down. She felt the sting on her cheeks as well as her tears sliding down her cheeks.

"You will join me in the ruling of the universe!" He yelled. At this point, Jordan had run away from the window.

Kyanite stared at her father. "No." She said softly.

"What?!"

"No!" Kyanite said more forcibly. "I'm going to run away and get stronger then you. Then, I will come back and slice your neck until you bleed out and or die!"

Kyanite grabbed her book and took off down the steps and out the door. She slammed the door to prove her point.

"That stupid human made her this way. My daughter will regret this." Her father spat.
