"ꡅꡔꡂꡊ. ꡅꡔꡂꡊ. ꡅꡔꡂꡊ. ꡅꡔꡂꡊ. ꡅꡔꡂꡊ. Useless piece of ꡒꡇꡈꡓ." Achroite was on a ship that was about to crash. She'd done her job; she's defeated the bad guy. However, she defeated the bad guy after accidentally setting off self-destruct mode. "ꡒꡇꡈꡓ. How do I go back?" She randomly clicked buttons, and eventually pulled a lever that stopped the ship's power completely. It was pitch black everywhere, as there were no lights in space and the ship was no where close to any star systems. Achroite curled up into a ball and cried.

"Schorl, you're being unreasonable." Watermelon Tourmaline said to her new counterpart.
Schorl rolled her eyes.
"There's no way in Hope Diamond's Black Star that I'm going to let you get away with LITERALLY LEADING A REBELLION in exchange for not killing me! There's no way you could actually do anything to me, not before I report you at least."
For a second, she forgot the black Tourmaline was the only thing stopping her from toppling down a deadly torture device originally made for rebels. Ironic.
Anyway, Watermelon was not about to kill herself because she told off a rebel, so she changed her tone.
"Please find it in your heart to serve your rightful owners and creators. It'd save more people than it'll hurt. And I know the Painites aren't always the best, and honestly sometimes the cons outweigh the pros, and they don't always make the best decisions, but it's honestly kind of annoying when other gems refuse to power through these troubles while literally everyone else is. So please don't do this. There are still so many things worth complying for, like friends, or faith, or...whatever! You're going to spend your life regretful and bitter because you'll be sulking in some cave on an abandoned planet all day, only stopping to fight and disrupt loyalists to feel some kind of purpose in life."
At this point, Schorl was getting tired of holding on to Watermelon's hand.
"Wow, cool speech. Too bad I wasn't paying attention."
"You're- UGH! Fine, I won't tell."
Schorl nodded.
