Alright, I am sorry it took so long to update. I wanted to finish my RWBY story before I ended this one. I know it has been more than month but thank you for baring with me :) I had some problems going on and I needed a break everything happened so suddenly. Thank you for being patient.
"Are we ready to leave?" Yellow Diamond asked looking at Blue Diamond.
"We are still waiting for White Diamond."
She groaned.
"She has been waiting for this thousands of years. You have to be patient."
Yellow Diamond just rolled her eyes and walked back into the spaceship.
"This is going to be hard on all of us, especially since this is Pink Diamond's planet."
"I don't give a damn about who's planet it is. I want it destroyed no matter what."
"I go there and mourn sometimes. I can't help it but I'm sure White Diamond misses her too."
"There's no point in feelings. We have a job to do."
Blue Diamond sat down without a word.
All three of them had become distant since Pink Diamond had been shattered but White Diamond was almost isolated herself. That left Blue Diamond to mourn alone since Yellow Diamond didn't seem to care as much. They had grown apart but it didn't help that White Diamond could over throw them at anytime and it fueled the hatred Yellow Diamond had for everything.
"I'm here."
Blue Diamond jumped a little looking at her. White Diamond had a sick look in her eyes.
"Are you ok?"
"I'm fine. I'm just anxious."
"How can you be so anxious about something so minor?"
"Well, you have no feelings so you wouldn't understand."
"Please you two stop it already. You act like lesser lifeforms," Blue Diamond turning around in her seat.
"It should take us a day or so to get there," White Diamond said ignoring the comment.
"And how do you know that already?" Yellow Diamond asked looking suspicious.
"I have been waiting for this for years and I often would plan what I wanted to do. It gets boring alone."
"Whatever. Let's just get this over with."

"It's really pretty here."
"I agree."
Jasper and Amy were sitting on a cliff of some unknown island that the Crystal Gems had taken them. Steven, Lapis and Peridot were playing in the ocean out front while the couple watched from above them. Amy felt like she was more nervous than actually enjoying what could be their last day together. Tomorrow everything could change for them- for the world.
"I care about you a lot Amy."
"I care about you too Jasper."
"Can... can I be honest with you?" the orange gem asked.
"Yes."
"I won't say anything to them and I know some of them know this already, but I don't think we are ging to make it. I think whatever we do will fail and we should just leave the planet now."
Amy looked shocked.
"What?"
"I know."
"Why do you think that?" Amy whispered growing upset and it was obvious to her girlfriend.
"I shouldn't have said anything."
Amy got up, "Do you not believe in us? In me?"
"I do but- you don't understand! You have never been in a battle!" Jasper cried looking pained, "You lose friends- your partners! Do you know what that's like?!"
"I did when you became Malachite! I thought you were gone! You became something horrible because her conscious was taking control of you instead of it being you and Lapis!"
Jasper placed her large hands on Amy's shoulders squeezing them a little too hard, "That is nothing when you watch them get shattered! You don't know!"
"I don't know but do you know what it was like being alone all this time and finding out the one being in the world you knew was gone?!"
Jasper dropped her hands looking angry.
"Do you miss her that much?" the ex solider hissed glowering at her.
Amy clamped her mouth shut and turned away.
"Well?"
"Why are you so jealous? She's been gone all this time and I'm here with you now? Isn't that proof enough that I'm here for you and only you?" Amy asked looking more hurt than she had ever been.
Jasper rubbed her face angrily.
"I don't know what to say or do. I don't know how much more I can show you I care only for you. Please tell me how I can fix this please. I need you to tell me because I don't know! I've been alone all this time and I like you, I care for you- I love you!"
"I just can't."
"Jasper! Why do you have to fight with me when we are spending our last day together?!"
Jasper shook her head and stomped away leaving Amy alone. Steven, Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl looked at each other. They had been fighting a lot but it was understandable to some extent but it seemed like Jasper was nitpicking for no reason. How were they going to fight the Diamonds when they were fighting amongst themselves?
Amy sat down and hugged her knees to her chest.
Maybe Jasper was in love with the idea of her than actually being in love with her? Amy had already proved herself loyal to Jasper- if anything Jasper was the one who wanted to be with her until Malachite started taunting her. Jasper was the one who spent her time waiting on her to come out and if she didn't actually care she should've left Amy in the care of the Crystal Gems. Amy was having a hard time understanding Jasper's feelings as they more complicated that her own.
"You alright?"
"If I said yes would you believe me?" she whispered.
"No."
Lapis sat down.
"Talk to me."
Amy smiled sadly and shook her head.
"You forget I was trapped with Jasper for some time."
She raised her head staring at the ocean gem.
"I did."
"Tell me... What's wrong?" Lapis asked smiling at her.
Amy bit her lip and looked down at the green grass.
"She's scared."
"Jasper just seems angry to me," the multi color gem said with watery eyes.
"She is and she's afraid. You have to think that she fought in the war thousands of years ago. She lost a lot of friends and now she has someone she cares about a lot."
"I think she would still would like to Malachite more than trusting me."
That stung but Lapis recovered quickly.
"When we were Malachite she was angry- more angry than before. Jasper couldn't hide her feelings in the fusion because they were too strong. Do you think she wants to poof you? To be honest... All of us are afraid to see you corrupted because we know you are more powerful than all of us. I don't think she has it in her to hurt you physically."
Amy's face was stained with tears.
"I don't know."
Lapis took a deep breath, "I also think she's angry at herself. She's angry she didn't have enough self control to stay away from me when you trusted her so much. Jasper is angry because she can't control her own emotions enough and she wants to hurt you so you stay away. She feels guilty and trust me... I feel the same towards Peridot but she always assures me that it happened and it's in the past."
"I don't understand a lot of these emotions."
"I know."

White Diamond stared at the screen before her. It had been a long time since she felt this alive with everything going on. She was growing bored with her existence and this is just what she wanted- some excitement. She would be free from the bullshit that the others had set in place as rules. She could leave the Milkyway and travel the universe, discovering the meaning behind everyone's existence.
She tapped her long, flawless fingers against her leg waiting. Pink Diamond's planet was still hours away and it had to be night time where Amy/Violet was at. She was anxious to meet the gem who had shattered and fixed her. She was infatuated with her power and she was even more eager to see it in action against the other two. She wanted to see Pink Diamond cured of her corruption after all these years.
"Are you ok there?"
White Diamond looked to her side to see Blue Diamond smiling sweetly at her.
"I'm eager is all."
"I'm glad."
She frowned and turned back to her screen.
"The last of the rebels will be gone so we can rest easy after this. I would like to do space missions again."
"That is for the lesser gems to do and not us. That's why we got into this mess in the first place," Yellow Diamond snapped adding in her two cents.
"No one asked you did they?"
Yellow Diamond glared at her.
"Some of us are curious as to why we are here."
"We know why you're here," she hissed making White Diamond angry.
"What does that mean?" she hissed back standing up, "What is your problem with me anyways?!"
"Some of us were just here while you were created on purpose along with that horrible half breed of gem."
"I'm glad my fucking existence irritates you enough to make my fucking day. I live everyday just you I know you're aggravated by just knowing I'm not too far from you."
Yellow Diamond grinded her teeth, turning her yellow hands into fists.
"We can go outside and finish this if you want."
Blue Diamond stopped the ship and waited for them to finish fighting. Sometimes it would be an hour before Yellow Diamond would back down.
"Every time you two are in a room together!" she cried as White Diamond got into Yellow Diamond's face.
"Yellow Diamond, why were you made? I'd really like to know honestly."
"I don't know."
The three of them became silent.
In the time they had talked, the three of them weren't sure why they were they in the first place. Many there were other Diamonds in the universe and they had created experiments making Blue, Yellow and Pink Diamond but it was unsure. At some point in time White believed her parent gems along with Violet's created them and deemed them failed leaving them in space somewhere.
Pink Diamond had a great memory and if she had any idea that she knew how they came to being she never said anything to anyone. She probably had some idea and didn't want to say anything to anyone. White Diamond sat back down in her chair shocking the other two. She couldn't get into a fight carrying Pink Diamond's shattered remains- none of them were strong enough, even together to defend themselves from a corrupted Diamond.
"Are you ok?" Blue Diamond asked reaching out towards her.
"I'm saving my energy and anger for the right one. Shut up and sit down."
They followed her order and sat. Blue Diamond started the ship back up.

"Why are we stopping here? It's almost freezing to the point it could kill Steven!" Pearl screeched looking around at the icy wasteland.
"I heard of gems that came here and died upon freezing then shattering by contact. The Diamonds thought it was clever to have a base here but I had never been here myself," Jasper said.
"It's not too bad Pearl. I always wanted to visit Antarctica," Steven said through the fabric of his wool face mask.
Amy looked around at the ice and snow.
"I have no idea why we would be here. Humans don't even like it here," Peridot said.
"There's a few hunts here and there with generators for people who get stranded by accident," Garnet said.
"I like it here. It's actually very pretty here," Lapis said.
Steven nodded in agreement.
"Ar you getting cold feet?" Amethyst asked.
Amy turned to look at the purple gem, "What does that mean?"
"She means, are you trying to avoid the Diamonds, as in you no longer want to fight them?" Pearl asked looking suspicious.
"It's not that."
She was nervous. Amy had every right to be. If everything was successful, she would meet her parent gems- the ones who created her. She would find out if White Diamond was telling the truth. This was the end to see if the older Diamond would betray her as soon as the others were out of the way. Amy was scared of the possible outcomes but she wasn't going to say anything to them about it.
Amy desperately wanted to shove them into a ship and send them into space until the deed was done but they wouldn't have any part of that. The Crystal Gems wanted to fight with her to the end. They wanted to help finish what they started thousands of years ago. What Rose helped start. Amy's eyes laid upon Steven. In some odd way if they failed, she hoped they would all be destroyed including herself if it was possible because she couldn't bare the thought of any of them staying alive and fighting the Diamonds for eternity.
She placed a hand on her face and took a deep breath.
"I'm sorry for crashing onto your planet," Amy said looking at Steven.
"It's our planet now," Steven said, smiling behind the mask, "We are the Crystal Gems. All of us."
The wind started to blow making Pearl shiver.
"I can't believe we came here as if this was the last place we were going to see."
Amy hugged herself.
"I don't think this will the last place we see."
Without warning Amy swung her fist connecting with Garnet's stomach poofing her. Everyone screamed, alarmed. She bubbled Ruby and Sapphire separately. Amethyst went to summon her whip but she was too quick. Within a minute Amy poofed Lapis, pearl and Amethyst bubbling them all. Jasper, Peridot and Steven backed away from her. Amy swung her arm poofing Peridot and her gem hit the snow. Steven grabbed and headed for the little shack yelling.
"Have you gone mad?" Jasper yelled, afraid.
"No."
The orange gem stared at her girlfriend. Amy had tears in her eyes.
"If I fail, you guys will be protected from the destruction of Earth and you will be safe until I reform. Jasper, I love you and you have no reason to feel guilty. I'm not mad about you becoming Malachite- I love you."
Amy hit her in the chest poofing her too and bubbled her. Amy picked up the bubble and headed to the little shack. She opened the door and Steven was hiding behind an old, blue couch shaking with fear. He had gathered the other bubbles without her seeing making her smile. She pulled the couch out and he cried out.
"I have to do this alone Steven. You'll be safe ok?" Amy said.
"We were supposed to do this together!"
"I know, but if any of you are shattered... then... I... I can't forgive myself."
Amy reached out and bubbled Steven. He looked afraid but she couldn't blame him.
"I'll turn on the heat for you. If you happen to get out... Re-bubble yourself with the others."
"Amy!"
Amy stopped and hung her head, "I've made up my mind Steven."
"I understand why you did what you did but you shouldn't have to do it alone!"
"I hope everyone isn't mad at me later," she said and shut the door.

Amy sat on the beach waiting as the sun rose over horizon. She saw a giant, white hand ship coming through the clouds. She stayed in her spot as it hoovered over the ocean. She didn't have to do anything because about thirty seconds later a bridge extended out and a door opened. She saw three tall bodies coming out. Amy continued to sit her spot unfazed by their arrival.
"That is her?" the yellow asked and White Diamond nodded.
They locked eyes, not moving.
"I figured she would be taller, like a Diamond is supposed to be."
Amy smiled and her body glowed, making her grow a couple feet but she was no where near as tall as them.
"It's been a long time," she said and White Diamond nodded.
"Well, shatter her ass so we can get on with this!" Yellow Diamond said looking impatient.
"Where are the rebels?" Blue Diamond asked, "We know they are here."
"I made them leave Earth."
The three Diamonds looked shocked.
"How did you know we were coming?" Blue Diamond asked.
"Pink Diamond warned me a long time ago when she helped me escape."
"Figures, traitor."
"I think you were more the traitors to your own race than she was."
"What the hell do you know?" Yellow Diamond yelled growing angrier by the second.
Amy finally stood up, "A lot more than you."
