The Legend of Jade

Chapter 4: Making Plans

Third person's POV

Ricardo, Jamme, Charm, Tina, Mico and Rafael were currently brainstorming on what the Darth Jaders should do. They have seen the gem crack and rain down into different parts of the country.

They were now calculating the possibilities of...

"THAT'S IT!!" exclaimed Rafa, the Jaders turned to him expectantly.

"What is it?" asked Dane.

"The gem each held a part of us. We're lucky we are the first generation, so that means that the gem is only 24 little shards now..."

A series of huhs and what's were heard.

Rafa raised his hand to silence them all.

"Let me explain. Since the Gem was hit by the sword, the force that was inflicted upon it was the reason why it cracked. The gem is a magical thing, so that explains the glowing part. And hence, since it is a magical thing, it can't simply disappear without a trace. So instead of disappearing for eternity as we all thought, it was simply broken into little pieces, shards. But since we are basically a part of the gem, it was broken into the number of all of us. And we are 24 in total, therefore our gem, The Jade, is now scattered over the Land of Pisay." he explained.

Everyone nodded as they understood what they must do next.

"We must search for the gem..." Dave started.

"And we must search for it quickly..." said Charm.

"We need all 24 shards in order to re-create the gem..." finished Ryan.

They all nodded and decided to set out tomorrow morning.

MEANWHILE...

"Ha?!" exclaimed Kyle Trinos. He was a Rubian from the Ruby. The three clans all ate at the same dining room.

Angela nodded. "Yeah, the gem is gone..." .

"What are you going to do?"

.

"That is our priority and not something you should bother..." she replied in a monotone.

Kyle sensed something wrong.

"I figured you know something?" He asked. Well no, he was confirming it.

"Yes." Angela said without a second thought.

"Do they know?"

"He or she knows..." was the reply.

Kyle looked at her questionably.

"The thief, the cause of everything." she said as she drank her water.

"And what do you know about this?" Kyle asked.

"Do you remember Jessie?" She asked.

"The Jaders' imaginary friend?".

She looked at him, her look unwavering.

"Peace. So what? You became crazy from all that reading you do and now you believe in Jessie as well?"

"Who said she wasn't real?" Angela asked.

Kyle tensed.

"No one said she wasn't real. You guys just never got to meet her..."

"And?"

"I saw her, Kyle. I saw her. And she told me to place that book during the fight." She said.

"HEY GUYS!" exclaimed Fiona.

The two snapped out of the serious and tense moment.

"Fiona, don't bother them, they're having a date. And besides, Kyle's enjoying it. C'mon." joked Rainier.

"SHUT UP!" said Kyle.

This was a daily routine of people...

Teasing the two even though they're just friends.

"..." Angela was dead silent...

They all stared at her as she smiled at Rainier.

"Rai..." She said calling him by the nickname she gave him.

"I hope that tomorrow everyone isn't too busy to go to your funeral. I don't want them to not be able to say their goodbyes..." She said as she smiled at him sweetly but everyone sensed the venom in her words.

"Hey hey hey! What about Fiona, she laughed too!!" defended Rainier.

"Don't bring me into this!!" said Fiona.

Angela stood up and left, but before she could get away from them they heard her say something,

"What now, Jessie?"
