Gems on island 36
Gems on moon 40Recently Aquamarine and Phos had started making paintings of spring and summer weather for Antarcticite as a little present for her when she returned to solid form. but that didn't deter Phosphophyllite's obsession over the Lunarians and it had begun to make Aquamarine increasingly worried. she had to see similar things happen to other gems and it never ended well. Today Aquamarine and Phosphophyllite wandered throughout the island talking about the gems and their various secrets. "Yeah Zircon came by earlier asking me to help her with Bort because she wouldn't talk to her".
Phosphophyllite had a calm expression painted over her face as they walked through the island's limits and admired views before seeing a sunspot approaching the two Blueish gems at a slow but steady pace. The liquid alloy from phosphophyllites used the alloy from her heels using it as a platform and enveloped one of the Lunarians into a ball of Gold and Plutonium alloy. Muffled sounds came out of the ball as Aquamarine sliced through the line of Lunarians and jumped off the sunspot as it evaporated. The ball that Phos and the Lunarian were in fell to the ground. Aquamarine quickly sliced through the Lunarian Phosphophyllite had entrapped as Phosphophyllite began blabbering about how it spoke. "That Lunarian it spoke i-it spoke", "what do you mean it spoke like what did it say". "It said Ah then Ngh", "Phosphophyllite those are sounds bit words.
Phosphophyllite gave an Aquamarine the death stare and continued explaining what she heard in better detail. "Um Phosphophyllite come with me to the library Lapis Lazuli and Ghost Quartz are on patrol duty right they allow anyone to come in and borrow a book as long as they return it but we have to report to Sensei first", "uh alright Aqua".
After the report to Sensei Aquamarine and Phosphophyllite headed to the library and searched for the books about Lunarians speaking or making noise. Aquamarine and Phosphophyllite continued searching through the books before getting the presence of ghost quartz. "WHAT THE FUCK!!!!" screamed Aquamarine and Phosphophyllite as they fell to the ground in terror. "Ghost don't sneak up on me and Phos like that"," "Are you really that Startled". Aquamarine gave Ghost an unhappy look as she sat up and began putting the books on their shelves. "Weres Lapis Lazuli" "she with Morganite and Goshenite I had to come back here because I forgot my scythe". "Not surprising", "what did you say Aquamarine". Aquamarine stumbled over but quickly composed herself and replied that she "didn't say anything" but Ghost Quartz and Phosphophyllite knew dam well she was lying. Aquamarine watched Phosphophyllite stare out a window laughing as Zircon tried to enact a proper hair routine with the four Diamonds trailing close behind giggling a the scene before them. The moment was interrupted by Neptunite and Benitoite rushing to Sensei." three sunspots one in the northeast one due east and one south by southeast". Sensei's calm expression transformed into a fearful one "ill Handel this Benitoite will join the Diamonds with sunspots". Sensei quickly ordered certain gems to the sunspots and began walking toward one of the sunspots, Aquamarine was shocked by the thought of a triple sunspot being here the last time they had come she was still partnered with Crocoite and she also remembered they lost Larimar, Spectrolite and Black Opal that day. But those thoughts were cut short when Phosphophyllite began following Sensei with Ghost not far behind and Aquamarine had a gut feeling that whatever was going to happen was not going to end well.
As the gems tried to lure the sunspots but plans were cut short when one of the sunspots dissolved causing Phosphophyllite, Ghost, and Aquamarine to backup from the Sunspot preparing for it to go back to the moon at intense speeds. Phosphophyllite was utterly dumbfounded at the sight of the sunspot before her enveloping into a ball of mush and began asking Sensei weird questions that were blocked out as Aquamarine watched Ghost Quartz hop onto the Sunspot with little to no care. Sensei turned to face Ghost who was currently poking the sunspot with her scythe. "Sensei nothing in here its just mush", Aquamarine noticed a hole forming behind Ghost Quartz. hands erupted out of the hole and grabbed Ghost Quartz before she could even turn around and the sunspot began to head to the moon. Sensei suddenly began breaking tiny pieces of his arm off as Phosphophyllite tried reaching the sunspot with her Gold and Plutonium alloy. Sensei used his shards as a weapon to quickly dispute the Lunarians. Aquamarine watched as pieces of Ghost Quartz fell from the sky and landed on the ground with sickening cracks. Sensei quickly dealt with the other sunspot as multiple gems began collecting Ghost's species and taking the piece to the medbay for Rutile to piece back together as Phos snapped her head towards Sensei in shock. "Sensei those things you've been throwing are those you're shards" Sensei turned to face Phos, "you noticed that". "How could I not" Sensei chuckled slightly and looked toward Phosphophyllite again "there are just tiny pieces of me I usually just use tiny slivers". "So wait you always break pieces of you when getting rid of sunspots", "Phosphophyllite makes sure you keep it a secret just between you me an,d Aquamarine".
Aquamarine felt a rush of confusion melt throughout her mind as she headed back to school and took a seat next to Phosphophyllite to process her thoughts. Two hours later Ghost Quartz had been fully reassembled and muttered the words "thank you", "yeah nice work Rutile", and "Phosphophyllite I was talking to you". Phosphophyllite was stunned for a moment but began to crack a smile around her face. "What do you mean I didn't do anything", "yes you did". Ghost creaked her head to the side for a moment "you reached out to help me I saw you and even though Sensei was the one to save the day it was still nice to see you try to help so thank you". Aquamarine felt happy when Phosphophyllite smiled getting some genuine appreciation but that was interrupted by quick pitter-pattering footsteps approaching the med bay. Aquamarine was shocked to see a furious Lapis Lazuli enter the medbay with her sword drawn ready to strike down Phosphophyllite. "Lapis wait no", "Ghost gets out of my way this tower of useless fucking rocks is about to see some real rage right now". Phosphophyllite raised a wall metal alloy to protect her from Lapis Lazuli's sword. Aquamarine scooted away from the Lapis as she clashed her sword against Phosphophyllite's alloy. Aquamarine sat up and managed to find Rutile And Sensei heading back to the medbay due to the racket being made by Lapis and Phosphophyllite. "LAPIS ENOUGH!!" The earth-shattering words from Sensei caused Lapis to stop her attack on Phosphophyllite. "My Apologies Sensei but this Idiot nearly got Ghost and her inner crystal taken and I've already lost one partner and I'm not losing two at the same time". Sensei looked down for a moment pitying Lapis for a fraction of a second
"Lapis you know better than to attack you're fellow gems just go back to you're room you to Ghost Quartz you need some rest". Lapis cooled down for a moment and did as Sensei said and headed to her room and Ghost did the same after putting on her uniform. Aquamarine looked over to Phosphophyllite with tired eyes "Phosphophyllite imma go catch some rest you should do the same you look more stressed and worn out than Yellow Diamond". Phosphophyllite groaned as she sat up and dragged her body to her bedroom to get another night of restlessness. Aquamarine was woken up early to Ghost Quartz looming over her head with a kind but creepy smile. "Aquamarine Sensei wants to talk to us it's about Phosphophyllite", Aquamarine felt nervous as she sat up and put on her uniform wondering what Phos had done this time. Aquamarine and Ghost Quartz stood in front of the great sensei, Ghost, and Aqua from my observations you two seem like you can partner up with Phosphophyllite. Ghost quartz's eyes beamed up in surprise " really", "yes Ghost, and don't worry I asked Lapis lazuli beforehand and she had some mixed feelings but in the end, she agreed". " Thank you Sensei I'm going to find Phos right away", Ghost Quartz ran throughout the school as aquamarine waved Sensei goodbye and followed Ghost Quartz around the school looking for Phos. Eventually, Ghost and Aqua found Neptunite peeking around the corner of the door. "Hey, Neptunite have you seen Phosphophyllite around", " yeah she's right their Aqua". Ghost quartz appeared next to Aquamarine holding a book . " so Phos here's that old war diary". Phos grabbed the book and quickly ran to the library. "Ghost should we follow them"," probably the idiot might trip and smash her head to pieces" Aquamarine turned to face Ghost Quartz as Neptunite and Benitoite chuckled in the background. "If you ever make a joke like that about Phosphophyllite again I'll break your arms off, and give them to the Lunarians now let's just follow Phos he looks to be heading to the library". " okay Aqua sorry"
"Blue Moon day four sunny they're lively today in warmer weather. On the Blue Moon day five, the typhoon sent the jellyfish to the southwest corner. their tentacles got all tangled together, it was utter chaos. It took me two nights without sleep to get them loose." Phosphophyllite had a confused and disappointed look on her face but continued flipping through the pages of the book and reading the words out loud. "Once again it was a battle all the food was gone in an instant, and we had a small crop of fruit this year, so I mixed it with the jellyfish food but they noticed and didn't touch the food that got mixed with the fruit now I have extra cleaning to do in the front of the pond". Phos slowly closed the book with the same disappointing face. " who wrote this cause when I find them I'm going to give them a piece of my mind". Ghost gave phos the side-eye, "well Pyrope wrote that and she's on the moon currently she was Ruby's old partner". Phosphophyllite's eyes widened and her face contorted to a remorseful expression. , " I'm sorry for putting you through all that trouble just for a book with a misleading title Phos also do you want to meet by the beach me and Aqua want to tell you something ". Ghost Quartz faced Aquamarine with a cheeky smile, Aquamarine tried to keep a straight face to contain her composite but cracked a small smile. But Phos told Aqua and Ghost that she was going to go to talk to Cinnabar. This caused Ghost Quartz and Aquamarine's smiles to fade quickly so they were going to have to wait a bit to tell Phos the news
