*Steven*
Just when we thought it left, the dragon came strolling back. It was probably because of what I said, which I highly regret. Lion let out a growl, and so did the dragon. They constantly did it for about five more minutes.
Then Lion started to push me towards the exit.
"Lion" I said, trying to stop him from pushing, but he just kept walking like my efforts were useless. I sighed, just letting him push me. He stopped at the portal, and made sure I was on. He roared in the cave, perhaps calling Amethyst and Pearl. Then, like I thought they came walking out. They walked on the portal without saying a thing, and we went back.
Is was around 9pm so I decided to go to bed. I walked over, and fell on my bed, grumbling to myself about how tired I was. I then actually got on the bed, and got under the covers, then I closed my eyes.
But the problem was, I couldn't sleep. I lied down on my back, staring at the ceiling, watching the clock slowly tick. I didn't know what was bugging me, until I thought about it.
It was that girl.
I had no idea who she was, or why she was there. That dragon wasn't kicking her out, it was following her orders to kick us out. But the question to me was why? Why did she want us out, we weren't doing anything wrong. Then a thought popped into my head.
Was she afraid?
Living alone for years, she was probably afraid of people. More Gems, then humans probably. I got up from bed and slipped my coat on. I put on my shoes, and walked down the small set of stairs. I walked past the kitchen and to the portal. I stepped on it, and thought where I wanted to go. And off I went.
*Silver*
I looked at Sapphire,
"But what if they come back..." I said.
"They won't, I told them that straight and forward" Sapphire said. "Now I'll only be gone for the night, no one ever comes so don't be afraid, alright?"
"Ok" I sighed. Sapphire nudged me, then flew off. I shivered in the cold and lonely entrance. I sat on the ledge, staring at the portal. I was so afraid that it would light up and someone would be there. Then my nightmares became reality, and it lit up. I got up and ran for the cave. I heard the little boy from ealier calling for me, but I kept running. I didn't know where to go, so I ran into the gems room and shut the doors behind me. For a second I thought I had lost him.
But then a pounding came at the door. I backed, as the doors burst open. That's it, I was sick and tired of this.
My fist glowed a white color and I smacked it in the ground, causing rocks to burst out of the ground, running and running until they met the boy and flung him in the air. The rocks came back down, and I panted, the boy lay a little bit in front of the door. His arm looked well broken and his nose was bleeding/ Now was my chance to-
"Steven!" A voice yelled. In came running the two Gems from earlier, along with a new one I hadn't seen before. Now I was terrified, they obviously cared for the boy. I just severely hurt him, I couldn't imagine how mad they were gonna be at me. The new one, picked up the boy and ran back towards the portal. The other two pulled out their weapons, panning to attack me.
A purple whip flew at me, and whacked me in the face. The taller one ran at me, and whacked me with her sword, in which I flew across the room into the wall.
I sat there in pain. I had no chance, at winning this so a stayed where I was. I saw the purple whip break through the dust towards me. Growing longer it wrapped around me, making me immobile. Then it lifted me up and pulled me out of the dust, to the Gems. They didn't say anything they just looked and nodded. They didn't let me go, hey took my to the portal, most likely planning to take me with them. The other one stood at the portal, when the others walked on, it started up and we teleported.
I pretended to be asleep, so I could hear the conversation.
"Why didn't you leave her?"
"Because, this thing needs to learn it's lesson"
"That's not going to be up to us, it'll be up to Steven"
"In that case, we have to be nice to her"
"I know, but it's nothing we need to get into. It hurt Steven, it's his decision if this thing lives or not" I suddenly got really scared now, this boy was most likely mad at me, which meant a death sentence for me. I felt the vibrations stop, I was brought to a small cage, and I was thrown in. I just lied down there. As I watched them take care of the boy, he opened his eye, and looked at me. At the point, I looked back and mouthed,
"I'm sorry"
