Azurite yawned tiredly. They still hadn't found Chrysocolla yet, even though the group had been searching for weeks. The blue-eyed gem suggested a weekend's break for everyone to relax and get back to their prime. They ended up going to a pizza place just thirty minutes from home.
Vexus took a bite of Azurite's pizza just for the heck of it, but it burned her tongue, "Hot!"
"Well yeah," Azurite said, "It just came out of the oven."
"I know, human food is evilly delicious," Vexus said, smiling toothily.
"So tomorrow did you guys want to go to the beach?" Azurite asked after finishing her pizza and writing the check.
"Sure," Jewel said, looking to Emerald, "That sound good?"
"Yeah," Emerald communicated with a smile, "We can train on the beach, can't we Tiger?"
Tiger nodded, she still felt at blame for not telling the others about Chrysocolla. She guessed that she just felt sad for the gem and thought it was best for her to stay in her bubble forever.
Azurite stood up and everyone followed, making their way out of the restaurant. Vexus bumped into a being slightly taller than her.
"Hey watch it you -" the small green gem said angrily, "Oh, it's you."
The group pulled out their weapons as Chrysocolla's eyes opened wide. She blinked several times and ran as fast as she could into the street. A large truck attempted to swerve to avoid the human-like gem, but it smashed into her, sending her gem to the top of the truck. It continued to move through the street as if nothing happened as the group stared.
"Uh… What just happened?" Vexus asked.
"I don't even know," Azurite replied as Jewel and Emerald put away their weapons.
"Let's go home, guys, she's gone," Emerald communicated, "Besides, we got to go to the beach tomorrow."
"But-" Tiger Eye began to say.
"No buts, come on," Emerald smiled.
