Ruby pulled out her boxing glove and stared down her opponent, whom was a Jasper.
"Why do you always think you're stronger then any of the gems here?" Jasper barked in anger as she formed her crash helmet.
"Because your stupid weapon is a helmet!" Ruby snapped, swinging her boxing glove straight at Jasper.
So many homeworld gems are watching, Yellow Diamond might be showing up! I cannot lose this battle!
Jasper grabbed Ruby's other arm and swung her across the crystal-studded battlefield like a ragdoll.
"Reckless tiny gem! Y'know that Jaspers are stronger then Rubys and Sapphires!" Jasper laughed while Ruby was weakly getting up.
"S-Sapphires?" Ruby muttered under her breath. "Are they-"
"Do you sumbit defeat?" Jasper interrupted.
"No! I wanted to ask if-"
Jasper gave Ruby no time to answer as she lifted Ruby off the ground and shook her senseless whilst Ruby struggled to aim blows at the gem on her face.
After an hour of Ruby trying to beat Jasper, Ruby gave up. She didn't want to have to regenerate again.
I should soon...my headband is all torn up from the battles I've done for dominance, Jasper must have a lot of Gem-mates from all the battles she's won.
Ruby spotted a medium sized black gem with a long black dress and poofy black hair walk away unamused of the battles.
"Um, so I guess none of us are impressive to you?" Ruby asked. She and the black gem were the only ones still there.
"Star Sapphires built, they don't fight" the gem replied.
"Are you one of the Sapphires Jasper was talking about?" Ruby asked.
"No, whole different species." And with that, Star Sapphire left.
Ruby found a Sapphire and fought her till she lost and went to her gem.
That Sapphire was full of spirit...she would make a great Gem-mate.
After a while, Ruby finally regenerated and she looked to the Sapphire that beated her.
"You watched out for my gem, thank you."
