-Back in Quest-

*Amethyst (Indigo Leader)*

Rue had called for an emergency meeting, sitting in my chair I took notice of a few things.

Citrine's eyes are red and his cheeks are red as well, dried tears lay on his cheeks. Bent over slightly, hand folded over his lap, from where I sat I could hear his shaky breaths; he seems to be trying not to cry.

Peridot is in a similar position to Citrine. However she was sitting up straight, he seemed more composed. Eyes and face less red, hands placed in front of him, and his eyes were focused on Rue.

Rue had heavy eye bags, and his hair was unruly. His entire state was a mess, his foot was tapping from under the table.

Sappy, Sappy had a hand gently holding my hand; his thumb comfortably rubs against the top of my hand. Eyes soft, ready to calm me if things get out of hand. His shoulder brushes against mine as he lets me know that he wasn't going to go anywhere.

Light sits silently not making eye contact with anyone. He was quietly mumbling to himself as he wrote down something in a notebook.

Topaz was not present... He was still unconscious in the medical wing.

M, the newest Red Leader looks nervous and uncertain, glancing between the other leaders with worry. The Professor hovers silently by his side along with a robot. I understand why they want to keep their people hidden, it's not safe. I was tempted to just up and leave with my people; alongside Sapphire's people of course, I don't have the heart to leave Sappy behind.

Rue takes a deep breath. "While I was out in the kingdom I lost consciousness and met the Violet King." By those words everyone's eyes widen and stare at him like he's lost his mind, all except me and Sappy who glance at each other confused; not noticing how the Professor flinches back before shaking his head.

"The Violet King told me something was coming. Leaving me with an ominous message." My hand twitches and Sappy presses closer, "Dimensions are crossing, Shackles upon lost memories shall break, the crystal shall find its shards once more, Find the second and third, rise shall be the void and end."

"Second and Third? Could they be talking about the heroes?" M asks with a tilt of his head.

"That can't be possible. The Second and Third hero are dead, we witnessed the death of the third. I lost my own..." Citrine says, small tears leave him. M flinches back but the Professor steps around M's seat.

"We never received or found Colle's body. Besides, Colle wouldn't go down that easily..." Professor Red says, "Besides you are forgetting that the Third hero was not one but two. You can't just go about forgetting about Sabre. He was as much a hero as the Third."

Light snaps a pencil just to take out a second and continue writing. When the pencil snapped Citrine jumps and stares before bringing his attention back to Professor Red. "He has a point, we wouldn't have had a hero if Sabre wasn't here." Light says, shutting his notebook to look at M with a small nod. I wonder what that was about.
