Rhodonite woke up with a splitting migraine.
"Aw, what happened?" She asked groggily, trying to lift her hand up to hold her head, but both her arms, legs, and neck were chained to the floor. She was stuck sitting on her knees, her back slightly bent because of the weight of the chains on her neck. She was wearing a gray tank top and black, spandex-like leggings. "Oh come on guys, more outfits? I just want consistency, ya'll." Rhodonite scoffed to herself.
The chains suddenly came off and disappeared into the floor, much to Rhodonite's surprise and pleasure. She stood up, stretched, and cracked her back, neck, and knuckles, groaning with relief. She then sat back down with her legs crossed. "Okay, now why am I here again?" She asked, looking around the plain white room with no windows or any sort of color or interesting features whatsoever. She finally noticed a window with a control area a ways up the wall, where Yellow and White Diamond were waiting along with a Fluorite working all the computers. "Plain white?" Rhodonite asked, looking up at the Diamonds. "Boring!" She said in a sing-song tone.
"Enough jokes, fusion. After your discovery, we need to see how well you do in the battlefield, if you have all the capabilities of a real fusion." Yellow said through a loudspeaker.
Rhodonite wasn't sure whether she hated or didn't care when she wasn't considered a real fusion. She really wasn't, but "fusion" was also sort of her identity to cling on. If she wasn't a fusion, and she wasn't a real Gem, what was she? She hid all these emotions and simply replied with, "Bring it on."
A giant door opened and an 11-foot tall woman stomped her way into the room. Rhodonite kept thinking of how grateful she must've been that the room had high ceilings. The woman was unbelievably muscular, and she flexed every one of them as she walked in. She had emerald green skin, and dark jade, poofy, mountainous hair and plump lips of the same color. She wore an "Office" green body suit with a yellow diamond symbol in the center of her chest, along with golden armor booties, arm pads, shoulder pads, breastplates, and knee pads. She had a cocky smirk on her face, and she wielded a giant shillelagh, basically a giant stick with a heavy "hitting end" to club things with. Her Gem was located on her cheek. Rhodonite looked up at the Gem, terrified, since she was only slightly bigger than a Pearl.
"How about you bring it on, little girl?" The green Gem said in what sounded like a Southern accent as she swung her club over her shoulder.
"This is Amazonite, the strongest Gem in our entire military. We train our Quartz by fighting her every day. Good luck." White Diamond introduced the green Gem through the loudspeaker.
"Yeah, and I wipe the floor with those pathetic Quartz too." Amazonite chuckled.
Rhodonite was shaking now, because Quartz were always intimidating for her, let alone Amazonite.
Amazonite set her club on the floor for a second in order to crack her knuckles, then her neck. She picked up the club again and took a swing at Rhodonite. Rhodonite tried to dodge as quickly as possible, but didn't make it out completely in time, because the club came down with a loud boom and caught her leg in the process. Amazonite cackled as she lifted up the club only to slam it down again, this time, her aim was a lot better and it took out both of Rhodonite's legs. Rhodonite was already bleeding all over, and was in tears from the pain, she could barely stand, and just wanted it to end.
"GET UP!" She heard Yellow Diamond screech through the loudspeaker.
Rhodonite didn't get up out of fear of Yellow, but out of her own determination to defeat Amazonite. She summoned her tomahawk and ran toward the Gem. She had heard a story of Pearl poofing a giant three Gem fusion before, so she knew that she could do it too.
"Oh, looking for a tussle I see.." Amazonite cackled. Rhodonite leaped to try and jab her tomahawk into Amazonite's leg to begin climbing up to her Gem, but Amazonite slammed Rhodonite against the wall with her club, knocking Rhodonite's tomahawk out of her arms and causing bloodstains to actually get on the wall and drip onto the floor.
"It's gonna take more than your weak tomahawk to poof me, hun." Amazonite scoffed before allowing Rhodonite to lay on the ground and bleed.
"That's enough...for today," Yellow said over the speaker, clearly disappointed in Rhodonite's performance. Amazonite left the room, smiling at her victory, and three healers came with a stretcher, picked up the now unconscious Rhodonite and carried her to her room...
Dang...things are getting serious up in here...
The experiments get worse, as Yellow gets more curious.
Oh gosh, I feel so weird since this is so short! The next ones will be longer, and I promise some more Blue in the near future. :D
