Sorry about the shortness, this actually took forever to think of though, promise the next will be longer.

When she left from her former facility, Aqua received a transmission from Rose telling her to go directly to 'the Yard', which was like their secret place to stash some of Homeworld's ships. Aqua immediately found the nearest warp pad and transported to the Yard.

When she arrived, Aqua noticed a lot of the ships were missing, she immediately feared the worst, that Homeworld discovered the Yard and Rose was captured. However, before her fears could overtake her, a large hand pulled her into the nearest ship with enough force to take an arm off. Aqua was momentarily panicked until she saw her leader, looking significantly more disheveled than usual, "Whoa Rose what's with all the fuss?"

"No time to talk, we had to be loaded onto the ships, we're all leaving for Earth, right now." "Earth, so soon? This is crazy, I'm not ready for this." Before Aqua could even say anything, the ship powered up, lighting up the inside of the dim ship, they were taking off. Aqua looked around noticing several other gems she didn't recognize, but two she did, Pearl was right by Rose's side, gripping onto her like a child would to their mother, and the blue gem, Sapphire, was holding on tightly to a similarly smaller red gem that Aqua believed was a ruby.

Everyone seemed to settle down a little as soon as the ship left from their former home. "Rose, please tell me what's going on." Rose looked down at the confused gem, "Well Aquamarine, the Diamond Authority found out about us, Sapphire gave me a heads up and I summoned all of our soldiers to leave Homeworld immediately. Some of us left by ship while others took warp pads, ships are much safer right now though."

Aqua thought of Lapis, remembering their last moments together, "I-I didn't even get to say goodbye." She may never see Lapis again, the realization of this struck Aqua like a hammer. "What if I have to destroy her on the battlefield? What if I accidently shatter her? I couldn't live with myself if I hurt Lapis.." Terrible thoughts crawled into her mind, the chance of hurting Lapis, on accident of course, was just horrifyingly overwhelming to her already stressed demeanor.

"Rose, what if I hurt her?" Rose nervously twiddled her fingers, thinking deeply on what to tell the young gem. "Well, Aquamarine, do you believe you can be capable of hurting her?" Aqua thought it over, she honestly didn't know, but then she thought of how she left Lapis, without even a goodbye to give her.

"I already did Rose... I already did." Aqua looked out the ship's window, staring into the endless galaxy. She was getting further and further away from Lapis every second. "I hope you're okay Lapis, wherever you are."

Btw this is like before Rosaline had showed up
