Chapter 4: Scuffled

Arctic's POV

Arctic: WHAT'S GOING ON!!

I heard a flashbang go off, which woke me up from my beauty sleep from those such destructive kicks to the face. Still in a panic I tried to grab my machete on my back only to find it's not there. IT'S NOT THERE, HELL NO! I reached as far as possible as I comedically fell off the slab and onto the ground in a panic. How could it be gone... no no no, did I drop it when I had my neck practically kicked a good ninety degrees early. I quickly reached into my coat and whipped out my revolvers and pointed it at a green haired gem person and the red haired one.

Arctic: Where am I and where the hell is my machete!

Everyone's eyes laid onto the gun as they cowered at the sight of my revolvers except for the tall bald man in buddhist robes, I guess he has some balls. My attention goes to that man when he speaks to me.

Bald Man: We mean no harm to you human, please put the weapon away and let us speak.

Arctic: hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, fine

I stash away my revolvers and sit down before cracking my neck which was a bad idea as it started to spasm.

Arctic: ACk!...

I quickly slap it back into place before looking at the bald guy.

Arctic: Alright, please explain the context of where I am Old Man...

Bald Man: Then I'll explain as best as possible to suit your confusion. And please call me Sensei.

Arctic: Ok?

He said thoroughly as he soon began explaining the context when and where I was. Meanwhile all of my brain cells have rotted hearing this knowing that gems inhabit this island, this is the only land out there, gems are immortal, Lunarians come to destroy the gems and collect their parts, and etc. But what scared me the most was knowing I was the only human that exists.

Arctic: So let me get this straight, I'm the only human here... right?!

Sensei: Indeed.

What do I even say at this point, ARGH... I'll just deal with it like I always do.

Arctic: Thank you for informing me of this at least.

Sensei: You're welcome, if you have any other questions, please ask one of the Gems to guide you to me as you do not know your way around here.

I nod as I watch Sensei leave the room. Many of the gems that got... well, flashbanged started to stand back up along with me, today is just too confusing. Welp, I'll just grab my machete and I'll... Where Is My MACHATE? I frantically look around for it as I see a long black hair gem with it on his back.

Arctic: HEY YOU, GIVE MY MACHETE BACK PUNK!

I angrily walked toward this person and tried to snatch my machete back but to no avail as he sidesteps.

Black-Haired Gem: You're a hazard to us all with this sword. You won't be getting it back.

This Bozo, that's my machete, I've had it all my life. You have zero right to have it. He gave me a pissed off look and I wind up my arm and went for a haymaker.

Arctic: And here it comes!

My arm crashes straight into his chest as a loud crack goes off.

Arctic:
