Chapter 2

Hey guys! I always give my special thanks to Dreamwalker20, who mainly wrote this. Please give us reviews!

"Well, this is awkward." Scarlet stated lamely.

"Just shut up!" Jade growled.

Green spoke first. "I haven't seen you around here…"

"Just who are you and where do you come from?" Blue interrupted.

Turquoise went a bright pink and Violet nudged her in the side.

"Come on, Turquoise." Violet encouraged her blue wearing friend. "This is no time to freeze up."

Jade filled in, "I'm Jade, this is Turquoise, Scarlet, and Violet. We're from..." and Jade began to explain the situation, but before she could finish, and unexpected cry came from Scarlet.

"Jade!" Scarlet yelped. "We've got company!"

Before anyone could react, a young girl and a deep black tunic lunged towards them.

"Who are you?" Red asked innocently.

The girl in the dark tunic smirked. "It is I, the cat you so called Gari!" she bellowed, directing her gaze towards the girls.

All the girls could do was exchange grave looks. Only Violet could speak up at her transformed cat. "Gari, why on Earth would you do such a thing, do you know how many chances you took, you could have died!"

Gari hung her head in shame, and Vio interrupted this decrepit reunion.

"Sorry to interrupt," Vio turned his head towards Violet "your reunion… We need to focus, haven't you noticed you don't have anything to defend yourself with?" Vio asked.

Violet felt her face grow hot. "I'm sorry." She replied gingerly.

Jade huffed and scolded, "Violet, don't listen to those twerps!"

Blue shot Jade a death glance, Jade returned it.

"P-p-lease guys!" Turquoise stuttered. "Don't fight!"

Blue ignored Turquoise's warning and began to speak. "Fine, if you don't want your help you can get lost! Just see if I care!"

Jade's face started streaming with tears and she began to storm away, Turquoise grabbed her by her arm and Jade stared at her in shock.

"Jade!" Turquoise pleaded. "Please, we need to stay together."

"Turquoise is right." Green agreed with an indignant look at Blue. "Please stay!"

Jade pulled her arm from Turquoise, looked glaringly to Green, and stormed off into the unknown.
