Ruby snapped awake, her muscles becoming easier to move. She glanced around the room, Sapphire was awake and was peering out the 'window'. Ruby walked over to her, she glanced around.
"You're awake." Sapphire said quietly, trying not to be heard. Ruby looked out the window, the thick substance made it hard to see and thankfully the window was lowered unlike the others so they could see it without jumping. She narrowed her eyes, there were hundreds of gems, walking onto of tiles hovering in mid air towards a large broken down building farther below, their cells were on a large metal sidewalk type of area, right in the middle of the direction the tiles were headed, Ruby glanced from gem to gem, noticing their gems all guarded by a thin gold barrier just lying on top of them. Ruby was tapped on the shoulder and then lightly pushed aside by Sapphire who began peering out again.
"Where-" Ruby began just as Sapphire turned around to face her. Sapphire rose her head to look at Ruby.
"Home world." She finished for her. She tied up her light blue hair in a curly ponytail, it was too warm in the cell, Ruby handed Sapphire her headband to use to tie it up with. Sapphire then glanced around the metallic cell. "Home world prison to be exact..." She said, although it wasn't entirely a prison it was just a cell in the middle of nowhere. Ruby got the idea and glanced out once again, noticing the cell to be moving, it lifted just a small bit off of the sidewalk type area and began to float towards the broken building, there were several other cells connected in a garage like place down below, it was huge, it could fit about five hundred cells inside. Ruby then noticed something, most of these gems looked familiar... The kindergarten gems... And the cell right in the middle of the area was Amethyst's.
"I thought all kindergarten gems were wiped out!" Ruby cried. She clutched her hair in stress.
"No, a large portion of the gems were taken back to home world I suppose.." Sapphire said quietly, now noticing there were no more floating tiles, they's been dragged from its view.
Pearl had been taken to the large place long before she saw the cell pull in, she glanced out, seeing the two kids pull in, she saw through the window that it was Ruby and Sapphire...apart? Why didn't they fuse and break out? Pearl shook her head, there was something off. She glanced over to Amethyst's cell, it sat right next to her, it pulled in from the middle, next to Pearls cell.
"Amethyst!" Pearl cried as she went to the window. Amethyst caught Pearls eye. She nodded, getting her whip, she swung at the substance and door as hard as she could, but only succeeded in tying herself up with her whip when it recoiled. She lie on the floor with a tiny taste of blood in her mouth. She ran her finger over a huge mark her whip had given her across her arms and waist. She sat up, resisting the urge to fall back down due to the sharp pain in her ribs.
Pearl couldn't see anything through the window, it was fogged with smoke, a fire perhaps? No maybe a cell was coming through and smoke erupted from when it landed. Either way Pearl couldn't see her hand in front of her. She curled up against a corner, refusing to breathe in the smoke. She coughed, resisting the urge to take a deep breath. She clutched her sides as the smoke inched closer. Amethyst watched the smoke approach her cell too. She coughed and retreated to the corner of her cell too, covering her face with her hands buried in her knees.
Steven awoke with a start, Pearl, Amethyst, and Garnet were gone. He glanced around, trying to make out the figure holding him.
"Pearl?" He asked, using the voice of Amethyst when she'd called for Pearl a few days ago, he couldn't remember exactly when. The figure glanced down at him, a shadow creeped over its face, and was then replaced by light, their features were unfamiliar, Steven couldn't tell who it was. or what they looked like, he'd sure never seen them before...possibly... He squinted his eyes and the figure shifted to the left, revealing tanned skin with long white flowing hair, illuminated by a neon green making her look similar to Peridot, only bigger and more hostile looking. She had a rhombus shaped gem on her nose with her head tilting to the side, hair fell over her left eye like Amethysts hair except on the left instead of the right. Her face was twisted in a puzzled look, she turned the mirror over causing Steven to slide into an invisible wall inside the mirror, the gem had such a powerful force. Steven struggled to get back up, noticing he was facing the floor, he saw bright bands of light shoot around the area like sound waves. He glanced behind him seeing his gem creating the bands of light. The gem was violently pulled away from the wall, creating a hollow hole where the gem once was, it sunk further into the hole and a beam of light appeared where it once was, Steven watched as the area around him began to crumble and break into thousands of pieces.
"Rose..." Jasper muttered. She clenched the rose quarts gem tightly, smirking as the figure formed the gem. Jasper clutched the broken mirror tightly, holding the gem up by its shirt. "I finally found you..."
