Log 2238. It's been approximately 144 rotations since I've been dumped in this horrid prison. Thank the Stars they let me keep my holograms, though there's not much to do with them with no connection. No matter, I am glad the Diamonds kept me, though I'm not sure how much longer I will be considered useful. Maybe-
Zircon's log was interrupted by a tapping outside her cell field. Another Zircon stood outside, one she'd never met. This Zircon was clearly green, dressed much like a standard Zircon but with several differences. For one, this Gem did not wear a hood, and her unkempt hair was brushed forward, much like Yellow Zircon styled hers. The Zircon's front teeth poked out from under her upper lip, making her look slightly comical. Oh dirt/em, Zircon thought. This ought to be good.
"Excuse me, you are Blue Zircon facet 8I2D cut 0IR, correct?"
"Yes, that would be me."
"Well, Miss Blue, I have been sent by Yellow and Green Diamond to get you out of here!" Zircon was shocked.
"E-excuse me?"
"You're coming with me! Once I figure out how to let you out..." The other Zircon turned to face the cell's control panel. "Hmm, now let's see... Uh- Hey, you! Yes, the Topaz with the gem in her eye! Do you know the password to this thing?"
A pair of Topaz guards came down the hall, looking at the other Zircon with suspicion. "We weren't informed that this prisoner was getting let go. Who are you?" One of the Topazes, the one with the eye gem, asked.
"I'm Green Zircon, and I'm here to bring this prisoner to exile!" Exile?! I thought she said she was getting me out of here! Zircon thought in a panic. She shrank back to the corner of her cell.
"Ha, right. How about you join her instead?" One of the Topazes made to grab Green Zircon, but she jumped out of the way, leaving the Topaz stumbling into the control panel. The cell field fizzled out and disappeared, but the other Topaz blocked the way. Meanwhile, Green Zircon was swiftly dodging Topaz's attack, and had apparently summoned a pair of brass knuckles to fight with. She slammed her first into the Topaz's cheek with a yell, and managed to knock the guard out cold. The other Topaz suddenly looked afraid and ran away, yelling for reinforcements into a communication device.
"Easy peasy. Now, where was I? Ah yes. Come on, Miss Blue, we have to find your travel companion." Green Zircon said, dusting herself off and walking down the hall. She's completely out of her mind... Zircon thought, but she still followed. "Miss Blue, quick question: do you happen to know a Yellow Zircon, facet 8O5S cut 3YY?" Zircon nodded. "Good, because you two are both getting exiled together!"
"E-exile, huh? Also, stop calling me Miss Blue. I'm flattered, really, but just call me Blu."
Green Zircon nodded, a soft blush creeping onto her cheeks. "Of course, Blu. And exile isn't as bad as you think! You're going to be part of Green Diamond's Court now!"
"Green Diamond? I thought there were only four..."
"Well, more about her later. I'll explain on the way there. Hey, is that Yellow?" Green Zircon stopped in front of a cell. Inside sat a very bored-looking Yellow Zircon.
"Yellow! Yellow it's me, Blu!" Zircon tapped the outside of the cell. Yellow turned to face her, eyes widening at the sight of her. Her head tilted as she saw Green Zircon.
"Who is-"
"We'll explain later. Let's get you out of here!" Green Zircon summoned her brass knuckles and got ready to strike. Zircon and Yellow Zircon barely had enough time to cover their ears before Green smashed the control panel, deactivating the field.
"Come on!" Zircon grabbed Yellow and pulled her along, as an alarm suddenly went off.
"Oops..." Green looked around warily, picking up speed and running in the direction of the nearest port. "This way," she said, pointing to an emerald green ship. The three dashed inside just as a squadron of Quartzes burst out of the prison behind them.
