"Ugggh what just happened" Ruby got up from the ground she looked around the area and she was very unfamiliar with it, where was Luffy and the others? They were supposed to be working together to drive "Garp" away? The gem tried her best to retrace what has happened and then all of a sudden it all came to her!

Xxxxx

:flash back:

"THE PLAN DIDNT WORK RETREEAAAT!" ruby screamed in horror! they were right about Garp the human was strong, brutal and relentless!

"COME BACK HERE YOU BRATS AND SAY HI TO YOUR GRANDFATHER!"

The group tried their best to get away from the lunatic but they had no chance of losing him; They needed a way to slow him down but how?! Ruby thought of the best answer she can come up with.

Instead of following the group she turned around and started to charge at Garp but the old man didn't have time to fight the square so he wacked her out of the way and sent Ruby flying!

Xxxxxxx

Ruby shuttered at the memory, she was defeated that easily without a second thought; she needs to make sure the humans are ok! She sprang up from the ground and began her desperate search

"LUFFY! SMART HUMAAAAAN WHERE ARE YOOOOUUU!" She was getting very angsty, what if something bad happened to them both; then she would have no purpose again! No Luffy said that she makes her own choices, she could just make her own purpose again! But that's hard! She has to stop thinking about that she must find humans!

"HUMAANS! WHERE ARE YOU! LUUUUFFFYYYYY" Ruby called out once more but then heard yelling in the distance it could be them! Did they escape Garp?! The gem dashed over to the source of the noise and was severely disappointed of who she found was in fact not the humans she liked.

"Sabo?" ace turned around hopeful that his friend escaped Garp "Oh its you" Ace was royally pissed off that it was square that found him

"Feelings mutual!" Ruby spat out and turned around, stomped right back into where she started. sure she could have asked Ace where he last saw the other humans but she hates him!

As she kept moving forward she heard rustling in the distance the gem went to investigate it hoping it would be Luffy this time

"Luffy?!" Ruby peaked through the bushes but saw that it was Ace that she found again.

Ace quickly noticed the Gem and was not happy about it"STOP FOLLOWING ME!"

"YOU?! YOU STOP FOLLOWING ME!" Ruby defended; she then turned around and went the other direction

They end up running to each other a few minuets later

"DANG IT!" both the childish hot heads remarked

This was a cruel act of fate because it kept on happening over and over again.

Dispite the run in's with the human the gem wasn't giving up her search to find the other two humans. Ruby heard a snapping of a twig not too far from where she stands it could be the just the earth wild life here or it could be ace but there was a chance that it could be Luffy or Sabo she was willing to take that risk.

As she investigated the surrounding area she spotted the unlikable human again. The gem was about to turn back but her basic instincts cried for her to stay; but she didn't want to since Ace might notice her. As She was about turn back again but then she heard creeking she turned to look at whats causing the noise and saw a vulnable tree about to collapse; she quickly realized it was about it collapse on Ace!

Ruby ran as fast as she could go, she didn't care about her hatred of Ace right now he was in danger and it would make Luffy really sad if Ace got badly hurt! She rammed into Ace and the tree slammed right onto her instead

"The hell-OH CRAP" Ace quickly got up from the ground and started to push the giant tree off of Ruby

Ruby didn't have enough strength left to keep the tree back any longer she promptly let the giant piller crush her

"HUMAN I TRUST YOU WITH MY GEM! KEEP IT SAFE!" then like that Ruby poofed

Ace was very shocked at what just happened one moment Square was under the tree then she went poof. He investigated all around the tree to see any remnants of square but all that was left was a rock?!

He picked up the stone and gave it a good look; it looked like the gemstone Square was always wearing. She said something about watching it before she dissapeared.

A few minuets passed and Ace is still lost, he needs to get back to the hut because most likely Garp found Sabo and Luffy and he needs to be the one who saves their sorry hides! Ace looked at the gemstone again and wondered what can he do with this? He started to throw the gem up in the air thinking of all the possibilities. He could skip stones with it? It would make a cool paper weight but when is he going to have papers?! he is going to be a pirate not a stupid business man! Maybe a necklace? Nah it would look too girly on him. He threw the rock in the air again but it wasn't coming back down Ace looked up and saw a light coming out of the stone ?

"What in the world?" The boy looked up and squinted his eyes at the gem forming and it looks like its form a familiar shape. Before Ace could say anything the shape fell straight on him

"SQUARE?! YOUR NOT DEAD"

"Eh what?! OF COURSE NOT!" Ruby got off of the Ace whose eyes still wide with just shock

"YOU WERE CRUSHED BY A TREE! AND POOFED! HOW IS THAT NOT DEAD"

"Oooooooohhh that ya~. I just retreated to my gem to heal you were actually holding my physical form"

"Physical? As in your actually a rock?!"

"Ya so what?"

Ace couldn't call her out on being a liar because he actually saw her being an actual rock maybe he could make fun of her later right now he needs to focus his priorities on finding the guys.

Ruby saw Ace leaving she didn't want to be alone anymore and it seemed that Ace knew these woods pretty well. She could follows him? Maybe he could lead her to Luffy those two always seem to find eachother? She settled on it she will follow the human!

As Ace went on the path he heard extra steps he looked behind him and was angered and surpirized that square was following him

"WHY ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME!"

" YOU COULD LEAD ME TO THE OTHER HUMANS"

"GO AWAY!" Ace really wished he set some traps here

"NO!"

"GO AWAY!"

"NEVER!"

After hours of trying to get Ruby away Ace finally gave was stuck with square but maybe now he could get some answers on why square saved him

"Oi square I got to ask you something"

"What?"

"Why did you save me back there when the tree collapsed?"

"Because Luffy liked you and if you were to die he would miss you and be... Sad"

"But you could have died back there too!"

"It wouldn't matter, there is tons gems exactly like me back on homeworld you could just find another to make defective"

"Wait exactly like you?!"

"Ya. Well Sort of? All rubies behave the same way but we have slight differences; like my squadron commander is more compassionate and our lutenatate is slightly smarter and harsh at times but other then that all of us are exactly alike"

Ace was sort of shocked, there are millions of squares?! He could handle one but a million of those hot heads he gets a head ache just thinking about it. He just kept on walking "There is a chance that the others are at the hut"

"Really?! Is that where your going human?"

"WHAT DO YOU THINK!" Ace angeredly wacked the back of squares head

An hour passed and the reluctant pair was met with a log blocking their path

Ace charged straight at the log and leaped on to it, almost reaching to the top but slipped off. Ruby then followed with the same tactic Ace used and slipped as well

Both were stuck with a big problem they were too short. Ace tried charging at the tree again but Ruby had another idea in mind

Ace was about to charge at the tree again but Ruby quickly did a slide kick straight at Ace

"WHAT THE-" Ace reflexively jumped but then Ruby forcefully grabbed his legs and stuck him in her afro

"PUT ME YOU LITTLE-oh" Ace realized what Ruby intended. With the boost of height he could reach the top of the log. He got off of Ruby's hair and got on to the log. Ace then went to tear off a branch and held it down to Ruby for her to get on

"Next time ask?!"

"Pfft no! it would have taken forever"

"NO IT WOULD NOT!"

"IT WOULD!"

"WOULD NOT!" Ace took a deep breath and decided to drop the conversation "the hut shouldn't be too far now. We just need to pass a river and a ditch "

"That's great!"

"ya but the Garp might still be there"

Ruby tensed with the meer thought of that human "what are we going to do about it if he is?!"

"We'll cross that bridge when we come to it!" Ace marched on forward trying to ignore all the horrible possibilities

"GOOD IDEA" Ruby followed Ace's lead on ignoring the problem

After trudging through the woods the pair managed to make it to the hut. But then a booming laugh can be heard from the hut Ace quickly realized whose laugh belonged to

"Sh!%! He is still there!"

"What! What are we going to do?!"

Ace thought about it if he went in the hut then ether Garp would take him for training or pummel him with the fist of love or most likely both but if Square gone in there she just has the most likely chance of getting an earful of crappy marine stories and remarks on her head, she has more of a chance of finding him then he does! "Square I need you to go in there!"

"WHAT! Why?!"

"Garp doesn't know you! you have more of a chance of getting in and out then I do! all that Garp knows about you is that your some square that got in his way. He'll probably ask some stupid questions about your head and listen to some boring story about how fun marines are just get in there, see if Sabo and luffy are in there and head back out!"

"alright Ill do it!" The gem reluctantly marched straight inside hut

Once inside Ruby tried her to quietly sneak past the bandits and Garp but it was to no avail because she was quickly noticed

"DAHAHA- oh Luffy is this the friend that you were talking about!"

Ruby slowly turn her head to meet with the rather tall human and Sabo and Luffy right by him

"Sorry about throwing you in the woods; it's just that Ace and Luffy won't say hi to their lonely grandfather and you were in my way" the old man then looked at Ruby and noticed her hair "Your head is a square?! Cool!" He proceeded to touch and squish her hair without permission

"stop touching my hair" Ruby calmly said as the wood floors below her smoked

but garp ignored her request and kept on squishing until he noticed Ace trying to sneak in"AHH ACE! Come over here!" Garp cheerfully called out

Ace was shocked that the old man notice him trying to sneak in; he begrudgingly walked over muttering curses mad that the lunatic noticed him

"yes?" Ace crossed his arms trying to be tough

"Squares hair is incredibly soft; did you know that? She no wait- he? wait square are you a boy or a girl?"

"I am a Gem"

"Ya ya I get it you think your great but are you a boy or a girl"

"I am not familiar with those earth terms I am a gem for crying out loud!"

Garp decided that this conversation is getting nowhere maybe he could get a clue from its name "Ok what's your name again?"

"Um I am a Ruby" the gem proudly stated

"Ok your a girl!"

"what?! How!" Ruby was wordless she just stated that she wasn't ether of those earth terms but he just decided for her! She the only one who decides what she is! The ground beneath Ruby instantly started to catch on fire, Sabo noticed this and immidietly grabbed a pale of water and dumped it on Ruby. The gem looked over at Sabo with murderous intent, Sabo slowly backed away from Ruby

"Luffy you have a weird choice in friends" Garp said cluelessly ignoring Ruby chasing sabo

"You should see her when she is pissed she lights on fire!" Luffy quietly giggled that Ruby was now trying to hit sabo with a branch

"Cooooool" then ringing started to come from Garps pocket "Wait a minuet" he picked up the source of the ringing and it revealed to be a snail with a weird device on it shell similar to a phone. He picked up the receiver end of the snail phone "hello?...What? do I have to? Pleeeeaaassseeee one more day? Wait there will be donuts... Okaaaaay" Garp hung up on the weird snail "Sorry kiddos I gotta go" he got up "oh wait I almost forgot something" he hit Ace and Luffy hard on the head

"I wasn't planning to leave without giving you brats the fist of love! GRAHAHAHA hey where did your friends go? I was hoping the Fist of Love too? Eh its there loss" and with that the crazed lunatic left

"Oh thank god he left!" sabo quickly stopped to catch his breath but then quickly started to run again when a very pissed off square started to gain up on him again

" SABO YOUR DEAD!" a trail of flames started to burn behind Ruby as her anger kept on rising

"RUBY PLEASE CALM DOWN!"

"PHAHA CALM DOWN?! YOUR TALKING TO THE WRONG GEM! I AM AN ETERNAL FLAME BABY!" ruby grabbed to the branch again and it immidietly caught on fire and started to chase Sabo with it

"ACE! LUFFY?! HELP ME!" Sabo angeredly cried out to the two simply cackling their hides off

"YOU BOTH ARE HORRIBLE!

"COME BACK HERE!"
