Yellow Sapphire woke up to two voices.

"Shhhh! Do you want to get caught?"

"It doesn't matter if we get caught! We're not even doing anything wrong. We're just looking to see what Garnet brought back."

"Okay….Rubies…Jaspers…what does this look like?"

"It kind of looks like a Sapphire." Amethyst observed. "A Yellow Sapphire…it's kind of small though. Like your gem."

"Sapphires don't come that small!" Tanzanite replied. "Have you seen our Sapphire's gem? It's the same size as everyone else's."

"It's probably a Citrine then." Amethyst guessed.

"You've never even seen a Citrine! They're more orangey than this! It's a Yellow Sapphire!"

"It's a Citrine!"

"Yellow Sapphire!"

Amethyst grabbed the red bubble and popped it. They watched as the yellow gem rose into the air, and found its place on a tall, thin body. Tanzanite glanced at Amethyst. "It looks like a Pearl…"

"Pearl Gems don't look like that…"

Gold hair bloomed from the gem, falling past its knees. An intricate yellow dress materialized a moment later. Yellow Sapphire landed daintily on her toes. Then she fell over.

"Ow..." she mumbled, turning over and brushing her hair out of her face. She was greeted by a pickaxe and a whip pointed at her. She screamed and jumped to her feet.

"We have to get her back inside!" Amethyst yelled. Yellow Sapphire quickly scrutinized the room, searching for an exit. Luckily, Tanzanite had left the door open, because she's a god damn idiot. Unluckily, the only way to it was an opening between the two gems

Yellow Sapphire shook her hair back and pulled a sledgehammer out of her gem. Amethyst tried to grab it with her whip, but Yellow Sapphire was faster. She slid past Amethyst, slamming the hammer into the back of her knees. Amethyst yelled in pain and fell to the ground. "Ow! Crap! Don't let her get out!"

Tanzanite swung her pickaxe at Yellow Sapphire's gem. She missed and instead took out a chunk of the rock behind her. "I don't think this is a Citrine!" she yelled before the sledgehammer smashed into her body. "I got this!" Amethyst replied, hurling her whip at Yellow Sapphire. It wound around her thin body, but before either Gem could grab her, the whip became covered in a thick coat of ice and shattered.

Tanzanite and Amethyst watched in shock as Yellow Sapphire ran out of the temple and onto the beach.

"Told you." Tanzanite punched Amethyst on the shoulder.
