Chapter 3-Recouperating

Aquamarine's triangular gem was found not too far from the flotsam and jetsam of Peridot's ship. Perfectly preserved, I could tell she had undergone quite an ordeal. Gingerly, I cupped my sister into my hands and kissed her, knowing that I could grant her an embrace and kiss in no time before long.

'So, did you actually fight with the Gems at one point and time ?', Stephen asked me, eagerly wanting to more about me. It was so amusing the way he studied me and how he was so awed over my travel pan flute.

'Yes, and I even used music to assist them. It sent the enemies into a slumber or put them into a trance. My sister's penny whistle has the opposite effect. It causes you to dance until you are exhasted.', I said, chuckling. I had missed hearing my sister's whistle. She and I were quite the force to be reckoned with when we fought in unison.

'I can imagine she was quite popular at parties.', Stephen observed. I had no idea what a 'party' was, but I was soon going to learn. This plane was different from where the Gems and I had come from, but oddly enough, I knew I was going to enjoy it here. It would be my home away from home.
