Lost Love?

The Dark Past of Alexandrite

Aphmau's  POV

"Lord Aphmau, please believe me, I never intended for this too happen, they threatened my life if I refused to tell them whatever they wanted to know, please, I beg of you to spare me." The merchant said.

"You wouldn't be here if you were lying."

"You believe me?"

"I trust you, otherwise you would have left."

"Thank you Lord Aphmau! Any goods that you wish are yours! All yours! Thank you!" He left I needed to speak with Laurance immediatly.

"Lady Aphmau, the conversation we are about to have stays strictly between you and I."

"Damn Zane! I know he has something to do with this!"

"He may have, but we can't point any fingers right now. The Lord of Scaleswind sees us an enemy right now, adding more salt to the wound will only cause more trouble."

"Could Zane have planned this from the start?"

"It's possible, but it makes me wonder, how did he know about Nicole?"

"Katelyn might have told him!"

"With all due respect, I doubt it, she hasn't left her boat."

"Laurance, the other day, a mysterious blind man, threatened both me and Alexandrite with a sword near our throats."

"That day, I saw you, from the tree house... HOW COULD YOU NOT TELL ME THIS? YOU BOTH COULD'VE BEEN DEAD! AND EVEN SO IF ALEXANDRITE DIED WE COULD GET IN SOME SERIOUS TROUBLE! I'LL GET MY HANDS ON HIM!"

"He didn't do anything, we just warned us."

"If he did, he had a very funny way of showing it. I demand you take me too him!" I took him too the exact spot. Laurance tried to attack him. But the blind man pointed a sword at his throat.

"I am not your enemy."

"You held a sword to her throats..."

"I want to help you and Lady Aphmau but I need you to trust me."

"Coming from a man who's holding a sword to my face."

"Just trust me and follow me." 

"*AUTHOR~CHAN'S LAZINESS STRIKES AGAIN. INSERT HERE EVERYTHING HE EXPLAINS." We left but we heard two voices.

Alexandrite's POV

I was walking around the forest with Lu, but me and Lu, felt dizzy and we collapsed. Lu was in my dream we were both looking around. ( STEVEN UNIVERSE REFERENCES UP AHEAD! X3 ) I saw one of mine and Lu's friend. Lapis Lazuli. ( Call me a dork idc ) 

"Lapis!" We both said.

"Lu! Alexandrite! I had to collapse you because of something really important!"

"We're listening." I said.

"A gem! She's coming to the Ender and she's not alone! I didn't tell her your names! But please don't cause any trouble! We don't know if she comes in peace or to harm just be careful!" We woke up.

" AH!" We both screamed.

"Peridot. She must be talking about Peridot." I said. Peridot. A homeworld gem. Homeworld gems aren't neccessarily good. Great. The Ender and the Night O' Sphere might go to war. Me and Sugilite are gems. Damian as a boy wasn't given a gem. Lu isn't a gem either. But she is a demon. 

"She's coming for us!" Lu screamed.

"Good thing. She's not coming for us here. It's at the Ender. Even though my sister, poisoined and killed my parents, locked me up, kicked me, hit me, bullied me, she's still a part of my family, if we don't help her, my cookie will slowly crumble. The cookie that's still left of my family."

"I understand. I'm here for you A. And I myself understand. As a demon. I don't want that cookie to get eaten."

"Thanks Lu. Um Lu?"

"Yeah?"

"I need to tell you something very important, that I haven't told anyone, not even Aphmau, her priority is her village, but this I need to tell you this."

"Go on. Whatever it is, I support you."

"When I moved to the Night O' Sphere. Every horrible thing of the Ender that happened to me, came to me, my locking up, my parents death, my abuse from Sugilite, WITNESSING HOW SUGILITE POISOINED MY PARENTS. I-I found a dagger through my stuff, and I tried to kill myself, I kept saying all the horribles thing, how I wished everything was different, until I couldn't, life flashed before my eyes. I knew it wasn't worth it. And I'm glad I didn't do it."

"Alexandrite... I never knew. * A tear falls down from her cheek* If you never need a shoulder to cry on, I'm here, even if we die, even if Peridot attacks us, I'm here."

"Thanks Lu. Let's go back home."

Laurance's POV 

Wow... I never knew Alexandrite's past was so... sad.

"That's sad... I can't believe she is so happy with such a sad past." I said.

"I know... It must be really hard to deal with that. Let's go before we get caught as eavesdroppers."
