Gems on island 36
Gems on moon 40

Recently 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".
