"You're on, let's get it over with already," Spectrolite whined before moving next to Blue Pearl at the entrance of the cell to allow me space to make the video.
"Steven!" I began, much to the confusion of Spectrolite and Blue Pearl, "I hope you're able to hear this. There's a gem that's looking for you, she even knew your name. I don't know how, I didn't tell her I swear!"
"She's on her way to Earth, and she's not alone! Steven, Homeworld, it's not the way it used to be. Everything here is SO advanced, I can't even understand it, there's no way anything on earth can stand up to it. Please, don't put up a fight, it will only lead to devastation!"
The entire monitor retreated back into its previous compact form. Before I could let out a sigh of relief, Spectrolite pinned me by the neck to the back wall of my cell. Her strength was incredible, my hands were unable to pull her away.
"What exactly are you trying to pull here?" She growled angrily, "You said you were sending a simple message, not a blasted warning."
"I did what I had to do to warn my friend," I gasped out, "if you were in my place, if you had been through what I have... if he helped you the same way he helped me then you would do the same thing that I just did!"
"You traitor, I should shatter you for this!" She growled. She raised her fists, I was ready for her next move.
"Halt," Blue Pearl interrupted, placing her hand over Spectrolites fist in a calming manner. Spectrolite turned her anger towards Blue Pearl, I could feel her grasp loosen around my neck as she was distracted.
"What are you doing?" She said through grit teeth. I hadn't noticed, but it seemed as if she was somehow, intimidated by Blue Pearl, as if she was afraid to raise her voice in her presence.
"I am under orders from my Diamond to keep the prisoner unharmed, if you were to harm her in any way or even shatter her, you will anger her" Blue Pearl stated in a strangely calm yet intimidating way, "if you anger our Diamond then it will be your shards that adorn her throne."
Spectrolites gaze shifted to the cell floor. I could tell that she was pondering her options in her mind; she seemed deathly afraid of the threat. Reluctantly, she released her grip from my neck, allowing me to fall to the floor. She glared at me with eyes full of fury, only to storm out of the cell not a moment later. Without saying another word, Blue Pearl made her leave, taking her calming presence along with her,
"Thank you..."
