Chapter Fourteen: Made of Love
Wolframite's claws WERE his weapons. A swipe would shoot sand from the tips of his fingers, and his bite was more dangerous and venomous than a komodo dragon's. And his eyes were so evil they could petrify you for ten to twenty seconds.
Tiger's Eye heard his roaring and the sand shuffling. She knew that Onyx and Altaite were fighting a Chameleotyle, which she could kill easily, seeing as they share similar traits. But they could kill her just as quick.
She summoned her glove and started lashing out at the ugly beast. Its scales excreted a pungent gas which almost knocked her out. The purpose of the gas was to make an opponent faint so the Chameleotyle could retreat.
She accidentally scratched Wolframite, who was gliding around the Chameleotyle in circles, hitting any weak spot he could find. The Gems unfused and fell to the ground unscathed.
Onyx hadn't had enough of fusion, though.
He'd grabbed Tiger's Eye by the waist and started to dance.
Halfway through, Tiger's Eye almost fainted from what Onyx did.
Onyx had kissed her.
A real kiss.
Finally, she thought, shocked.
Rose Zircon once more emerged from the magnificent pink glow.
And then they heard Garnet calling out to them.
Rose Zircon hit twice before Garnet's voice came through to her.
She paid attention to her message while dealing hits to the Chameleotyle at the same time.
She made out the words,"They're attacking! Two other Diamonds, it seems like Black and White! Pearl and Amethyst are down!"
The Chameleotyle poofed at that instant. Its gem had a spiraling effect inside, possibly the knock-out gas.
The two now-lovebirds unfused and Tiger's Eye bubbled the gem in a small orangey-yellow and light brown bubble.
They told Tourmaline, who was trying to figure out how to make fire.
And then, they decided.
They had to get Altaite and Tourmaline together.
Right now.
And they did.
They did, and apparently the fight with the Chameleotyle lasted six or so hours, because as the four Gems kissed their special one, the sun was setting.
They knew it.
They did.
They knew it was time to face the other two Diamonds.
Formidable opponents.
