Chapter 6: The Vision
(Inside her room; Sapphire's POV)
What happened yesterday should only be kept between us three; me, my dad and Ruby. This shouldn't be heard by anyone especially the 'Diamonds.' If they find out about this, dad will get into trouble again and I don't want that. I'm just going to wander inside my room but I can't help but think about my vision.
When I fainted, I can see the fear in Ruby and my dad's eyes. I can hear them shouting my name. My sight became blurry together with my hearing and my eyes became shut. After that, I didn't know what happened to them. I don't know where I was. All I know is that I am inside a dark room and I am stepping on shallow water. I can hear water drops but that's all I know. I walked around and shouted "Hello? Is anybody here?" but no one replied. As I was walking, I came across a white light. I went towards it and I was somewhere across the universe. It was some type of planet. I'm not familiar with it because I haven't seen it. I walked around and it wasn't occupied. Maybe my vision is telling me that the 'Diamonds' will expand their territory on this planet because it is inhabited. As I walked, I saw some gems fighting other gems. A giant pink gem wearing a pink dress holding up a sword and shield. She is fighting against a barbaric purple gem with a helmet and an axe. Looking further, there were gems fighting against each other. What are these sights? Please tell me this isn't going to happen?
I ran back towards where I came and everything became white again. After some time, I saw myself walking. Where am I going? I followed myself and I saw that it was going towards... Ruby. I stepped back and I was shocked to see myself get along with that gem. But that's not the most surprising part. I held his hand and we talked while looking beyond a cliff. What is the meaning of all of this? I am lost. completely confused. I ran back and again the same thing happened.
As I got out, I was crying. I didn't want the things that I am seeing. I walked around while I rubbed my eyes and saw me and Ruby dancing. We were happy together. After watching, a white light appeared and we disappeared. The only thing left was the square-headed girl. I don't know what's happening! I came near but the pink gem from earlier came near them and they talked.
"Ruby... Sapphire..." the pink gem said.
"We are not Ruby and Sapphire anymore. We are Garnet and we want to stay together" Garnet said.
"Garnet..." the pink gem said, "I'm happy for both of you!" she said while tearing. She came to her and hugged her.
She let go and said, "Garnet, You are not two people. And you are not one person. You are an experience. Make sure you're a good experience" the pink gem kissed her forehead.
"But the Diamonds wouldn't approve of this" she replied.
"Once we get to Earth, you can be whatever you want to be" then everything went away and I was back to the streets where my dad was about to punch Ruby.
Now, all I'm doing is how I'm going to tell all these to my dad. I don't know how he'll take this and how he'll react. On top of that, I don't know how I'll tell Ruby. I don't have any feelings for him and he knows that but I can see he does have for me. Maybe the vision was false because nothing happened yet. No spark has formed. Or maybe it is true. Oh no I don't know anymore! I guess I need to find the pink gem I saw from the vision.
I walked out my room and wore a coat and threw the hood over my head. I saw that Ruby was asleep so I slid my way off the door and out. I searched first inside the jail. With my swiftness, I got in and out easily. Unfortunately, there was no one there who has a pink gem. Next stop is a place where there is a big crowd. I am bound to find someone with a pink gem. I searched far and wide and at last I saw her! I went close to her but once she turned around, I figured she wasn't the one I was looking for. I am totally lost. I widened my range but as time past by, I was all out of options. But there was a place I haven't checked yet, but its quite dangerous. I need to be more careful if I were going to do this.
(Back at home; Ruby's POV)
I woke up and looked at the time. It was quarter to 5 so I got up and looked for my master. As I was searching for Sapphire, I began to blush. I wanted to see her. I feel like I'm in love with her already. I just can't help the thought of her wandering through my mind.
"Hey Sapphire! Where are you?" I shouted but I got no response. I got worried because she didn't respond. Either that or she just doesn't want to talk to me or something. I walked back to the kitchen and checked to see if she was there. I searched the whole house but she wasn't there. Her dad will kill me if he finds out that she's not home. I heard someone come down so I ran towards the stairs with a smile on my face.
"Sapphire!" I shouted. But it was her dad. My smile faded and then I became scared.
"What Sapphire? She's not here. She's in her room" her dad said.
"Oh yeah...Uhm. I thought she was upstairs. Okay then bye bye" I ran to the sofa and plopped myself down. How will I say it to him? I'm literally dead.
"Hey, tell Sapphire I'll go out to meet some people okay? Take care of my daughter" he looked at me with a serious face. Thank you! You saved me today.
"Yes sir I will" I said then stood up and waited 'til he was gone. Now, I don't know where to start looking. Oh Sapphire please come back safe. I'm really worried. I sat down and put my head on my hands, wondering where and how she is.
As time passed by, I am still thinking about her. Not knowing where she is really hurts. I decided to go out and sit by the door to see when she comes. I waited. And waited. And waited. After some time, I caught a sight of someone wearing a coat with a hood. I hid behind something then when it came near I said, "Stand right there! Who are you?"
It removed its hood, revealing Sapphire. I was surprised and almost cried with happiness. I hugged her unexpectedly.
"Sapphire! You don't know how happy I am to see you and to find out that you are safe. Where did you go? You got me really worried!" I said while tearing a bit. I looked at her and moved her hair away from her face to see her beautiful eyes. I saw that she was evading looking at me but I can see her blush. It made me smile.
"Let go Ruby. Dad will kill you if he sees us like this. Also, you are my servant and I am your master so you have no business with where I went" she said to me. I frowned and let go of her.
"Yes I guess so. I'm sorry about that. Well, atleast you are safe. I'll go inside to fetch something to eat. You want any?" I said while walking pass by her and going inside towards the kitchen.
"Nothing. You can leave" she said while looking at me. I walked in but got stopped because she held my hand.
"Hey, thanks for caring. I really appreciate it" she said to me while smiling. It sent my heart pounding really fast. I went inside to prepare something to eat.
(Sappphire's POV)
That was really awkward. I didn't know how to react. My heart started to pound really fast and my cheeks became red. It was the first time I experienced that. Maybe this is what they call... 'love.' I couldn't help but think about it. On top if all that, I couldn't help but to think about all the things he said to me. This made me smile even more and blush even more. But this is wrong. How am I going to tell this to my dad? Also, how am I going to tell them my vision. It isn't far from reality because, honestly, I am slowly... falling.
