Chapter 10: Reunited

(Homeworld Forest; Nobody's POV)

"Because I learned many things from her. And I'll do anything for her because I care for her" Ruby said. Onyx quickly stood up and hopped back to get some distance in between the two of them. Onyx shrugged everything off and summoned his scythes.

"I can see that I still can't beat you yet. I'll go hunting for the other mice first then. 'Ti next time Ruby!" Onyx said as he flew up and away from Ruby.

"Come back here you coward!" Ruby said as he followed Onyx. Ruby withdrew his gloves and ran as fast as he can to catch up to Onyx. Its the same as earlier. Chasing then getting chased. The only good thing was it was already night time. Ruby ran but stopped when he lost sight of Onyx. He then searched around for a place where he can at least recollect his strength.

"I wonder where Sapphire is. I want to see her or at least know if she's okay" Ruby said. He then found a big tree surrounded by more trees. He found it a little more suitable for him to rest a bit because he won't be located easily. Little did he know that Sapphire was on the opposite side, thinking the same thing.

"I just hope Ruby is safe" Sapphire said. They were both clueless that the one they were worried about was on the other side of the tree. Midnight came and they were both resting when they heard a rustle in the bush. They both stood up and headed over the bush and noticed each other. They both got scared then Ruby summoned his gauntlets.

"Who are you?!" Ruby said.

"Ruby?" Sapphire said as he went near Ruby. He noticed her and quickly withdrew his gauntlets and ran over her to hug her. Sapphire's cheeks became red but she still hugged Ruby back.

"Are you okay?! Any bruises, scratches, anything? Are you hurt?" Ruby said as he swept Sapphire's hair off of her face.

"I'm fine Ruby. Did he hurt you?" she asked while kissing Ruby's palm.

"Just knowing you're okay will make me better" he replied. He then swept Sapphire off his feet and they spun around together. As they were dancing, their hearts were in sync. Its like they have danced before together. They were both happy, smiling at each other while looking at each other's eyes. It was a view of romance.

"I love you, Sapphire" said Ruby with his cheeks becoming red.

"I... I love you too, Ruby" she replied with her cheeks red, too.

They both laughed and they were both happy. Unexpectedly, something happened. From where they both danced appeared a tall girl with a square head. She is the same color as Ruby but much taller. Another unexpected thing is that Ruby and Sapphire our gone.

"What? What is this?" the girl said.

"I don't know you tell me!" the girl said once more but in a lower voice.

The girl stood up rather wobbly and looked at her hands. It has the gems of Ruby and Sapphire.

"Oh no! Ruby! Sapphire! Where are you!" the girl said.

The girl became nervous, thus, splitting into two gems. One was Ruby and the other was Sapphire. They both looked at each other with shock on their faces as they stood up to get near to each other.

"What happened?" they both asked each other and they were both clueless. They both talked about what happened and discussed how it happened. The feeling, the moment, the happiness, it was all there. They were both happy being with each other that they forgot about what they were talking about. They talked for the rest of the night until the sun peaked out of the mountain. They both looked at the sun and laughed because they talked all night.

"Well then, let's go back home. I think we've lost Onyx by now plus your dad's probably worried sick" Ruby said as he stood up and held his hand out.

"Yeah it would be better if we go now. Its more safe. Anyway, what's with you and Onyx?" she asked as she grabbed Ruby's hand and stood up.

"I'll tell you everything on the way home" Ruby said as they both walked heading home. Or so they thought.

(Few moments later)

"And that's pretty much about our story nothing much to it though" Ruby said.

"It was pretty interesting. Did you even miss him or bother looking for him?" Sapphire said.

"Oh no, of course not. Why would I look for him? He's nothing to me"
