She had escaped. With a triumphant stomp and one final smirk she had beaten Lapis. She knew she couldn't keep her there for long yet she tried to put up a facade of heroism. Now standing on the edge of the ocean, her salt-flecked hair gently swayed with the breeze that rolled in and out from the stirring sea. She clenched her fists, a loud laughter erupting from inside of her. She was free. No longer constrained to her watery tomb. She was infuriated, she was enraged, she was drunk with power. She would make them pay. Every single one of them. No one would be spared. Nor the humans or the gems.

From her observations she wasn't on that same beach she had crashed Peridot's ship into on that faithful day. She was in a much more, confined area. The edge of the beach only spanned maybe 40 feet, and then blended into trees. Those trees swayed lightly, short but stout and halfway grown into the water. For a moment, she had lost herself in Earths beauty. Earths sickening beauty and she absolutely hated it. Not because she wasnt fond of beauty, even if that was what she was claiming her feelings to be. It was the fact that she was jealous of something such a puny and weak race had. She never acknowledged that. Only her intense desire to harvest the resources of this planet, and make hers what it once was.

Jasper felt the sun warming her skin, the salt dust appearing on her orange pigmented body. She sat down, first looking about to make sure no one saw her. It was quiet here. Lonely almost, but she embraced the feeling of heat. The most alive feeling there was. She was never willing to admit this, but she had missed everything about warmth. Her stern face wouldn't allow for such feelings of longing inside of her but Jasper felt the affects of being trapped in the coldest part of the ocean. It was a constant struggle in her bindings, where she lay, fused with another gem who had grieved and felt the same pain. Jasper looked back on the situation with great disdain. She was happy she shattered that blue gem once and for all.

lost in thought, she fell back onto her hair. Over the horizon, the sun seemed to be setting an odd pink glow over the sky. Jasper rolled her eyes and scoffed, another sign, reminding all of humanity what Rose did for them. Pathetic.
