The First Gem

Chapter 2- Introductions

Zachary POV

Zachary: "Hey, are you alright?"

Stuck in the stony surface, a purple skinned girl was staring at me.

She was about four feet in height, with light lavender hairand dark violet eyes. She was wearing a white baggy tank top, the ends being torn up, along with black spandex tights, as stars were cut out at the knees. Underneath her tights were what looked like mauve kneesocks, matching her boots of the same color.

Snapping out of her daze, she grins at me.

A???: "Yep, completely fine."

...

Zachary: "Well, do you need help getting out of there?"

A???: "Nope, I can do it."

As she grunts, she moves slightly, side to side for about a minute before settling, looking at the ground.

Zachary: "... so, do you wa-"

A???: "Yeah, now don't go rubbing it in."

Smiling softly, I nod, letting her know I won't, before standing in front of her.

Looking at how she got in the first place, that being slammed into the wall by a giant monster with the strength of 15 men.

Wanting to get her out the quickest, I know where I would have to grab, blushing at the thought, looking to the side.

A???: "Hey, why're you flustered? *Wiggles Eyebrows with a big grin* Embarrassed you can't find a way to get me out?"

Deciding to get it done and over with, I grab her sides.

A???: "H-HEY! W-W-WHERE DO YOU THINK YOUR GRABBING?!"

Looking towards her, I notice she has a large blush encompassing her whole face.

Zachary: "S-sorry, this is where I can get the best leverage."

Getting it done and over with, I start pulling with some force.

Three tugs, and a bit of help on both sides, the purple girl was now hanging from my hands, which were directly under her arms.

A???: "Uhh, thanks."

Zachary: "Y-yeah, don't mention it."

Setting her down, we stood there for a few short seconds, until we both hear a groan.

Looking over, I see the boy from  before, Steven I think, rolling onto his side, before standing up, abit shakily.

A???: Steven! Connie!

Running over, I notice the amount of worry evident in her eyes, as she inspects both him and his friend for anything serious.

A???: *Phew* Only a few scratches and bruises, besides that, abit tired, you're both good as ever!

Standing there awkwardly, I just think to myself as they talk about their other friends, who are probably half a mile out in the ocean, at least from what I saw.

Zachary: 'Hmm, I wonder if there are any hotels around here. Afterall, it is the weekend, I doubt the mayor is in his office right now, especially on a Saturday.'

As I stood there, I failed to notice the trio approaching me.

???: "Hey!"

Looking up, I see Steven running up to me.

Steven: "Thank you so much! I really thought I was done for there!*Nervous chuckle, scratching neck*

Seeing the boy in front of me, I could see his features fully As I thought, he was about 12 or 13, though very short, the same as a certain 4 foot purple skinned girl. Looking at his features, notice he has dark brown, curly with a somewhat feminine set of brown eyes and a rounded face.
