Baby of mine

Chapter 14

Rose Quartz's POV

I knew one day this would happen but i never knew it would be this bad.

The destruction I've caused for change...the gems that gave their lives in my name, I have their blood on my hands that I never wanted.

I know this war is just more than change in the system that was created by our ancestors, but for other planets miseries. The death of more living things, planets and living beings combined, that I could ever imagine.

I'm trying to right my wrongs.

On a past mission before Jet was brought to this world, I traveled to a planet. A planet with beauty that almost rivaled Homeworlds inner glow. To its native species, it was called earth, oh I loved it s much, but knowing my sister she would've destroyed it. Setting her gem implants to slowly infest it into a kindergarten. Maybe even something worse.

If I could do anything to add to my cause, it would be to save this planet and the gems that see the same light as I.

Where I was stationed in my strategy was far from the capital, in fact my troops and I were on planet Earth.

As much I hated this feeling I had, I was billions of miles away from Jet. The poor thing,the longer I'm away from her the closer Yellow Diamond was to her. I desperately wanted to bring the gemling with me but I decided against it in fear that she would have a worse fate here.

After thousands of years at war with the people I once knew was, it was finally coming to a close. Homeworld had a few troops and brigades around the planet. Nothing that we, the crystal gems, can handle, but I still had one thing left to do.

Get my darling Jet by my side.

Thought of course I cannot personally I must lead my resistance...well....whats left of it to victory. Many gems had joined and many of them were crushed.

We vaugely experimented about new fusions, ever since we found the two gem fusion. Who now calls herself "Garnet". Has been a good addition to the resistance.

In a moment of silence of the field, looking out onto the land of shards and rocks. It was hard to tell who was once my friend and not.

Sighing, I walked around to find a certain gem and lo and behold I did.

Stabbing a gem into smaller...and smaller pieces.

I understood her rage, thousands upon thousands of years in captivity.

Me being under Yellow Diamond.

And Pearl..for existing.

Setting a hand on her shoulder she gasped and stopped. Jerking to look at me with a frightened expression. Realizing it was me, she relaxed and fully turned to hug me. Seeking comfort from me.

I let her stay there, letting one hand free to dismiss the rest of my rebellion is the area to head back to the temple. The other, soothing her hair and back as to let her have a moment of rest.

Bur as much we wanted this moment to last forever, I pulled away. Both mt hands on pearls shoulder, staring deeply at her. I sighed and rubbed one shoulder.

"Pearl....I ask so much of you to do this...bur I have one last mission for you before we fight the last wave.."

I said, holding up a hand and leading her to the temple. The walk was long but I talked to pass the time
