So, I descended to the planet, feeling the heat created by the friction made by my body and the gases of the planet's atmosphere. This heat made my wtare wings to get evaporated.

-OH MY STARS!!! This can't be happening! This can't be happening!!!- I said as I panicked while falling.

I thought that my end was near, feeling that I have done everything just for dying in a planet far away from Homeworld. I, silently, while dropping some tears from my eyes (or "vision spheres" according to my lovable Peridot), resigning myself to my, apparently impeding death.

But, then I remembered that I was also some steps to accomplish my objective. To finally meet the Great Mew. Remembering that, I decided to make a last effort. I won't permit myself to give up.

So, I opened my eyes, dried my tears and made a last effort to save myself by accumulating some water from the environment to use it to recover my wings using that water. However, I didn't had much time. I was about to crash into something blue, which was moving all the time. I slowly, started to recover the water of my wings thanks to the humidity of the environment. But, I was just some meters to crash with the blue soil. Desperate, I pulled my wings like never before to elevate once again. I thought that I wouldn't make it.

But, for my surprise, I made it. I saved my life.

-Whoaho! I made it!- I said flying again, over the blue floor.

I then saw my reflection in the blue soil, noticing that was water.

-I can't believe it. All the amount of water on this planet. Is beautiful!- I said entering the water to refresh my body. I loved water, in fact because I am a Lapis Lazuli.

I there saw the beautiful world of the ocean, which was blue due to it's reflection of the blue atmosphere. Full of coloring creatures, big and small. Moving and static. It was simply amazing. I never saw something like that before. I got out of the water and raised my wings to fly again, flying above the ocean.

I flied for some minutes until I noticed some sea waves. Their movement was graceful and I couldn't resist to fly inside it, seeing it's beauty. And then I saw another sea wave, and another one and another one... I lose control of time and I got calmed myself until the sun came down and the night took over the day.

I looked at the sky. For my surprise, I could see that the natural satellite of the planet was visible. It appears that, somehow, was reflecting the light of the star. Also, the stars and the constellations were visible and, the white star of the Homeworld was the brightest of all. It was beautiful, a sight of the space that you can't get on Homeworld.

Without pressure, and feeling with all the time of the world, I fly at normal speed, searching for the Great Mew. However, because it was the night, and also that my Gemstone was in my back and I couldn't use it to illuminate my way, so, I decided to wait until the sun will arise again to search in the ocean. While flying I played with the water. It was an easy water to control, since it was almost pure. Is harder to control the water if the water is contaminated.

After some time, the sun raised and illuminated the sky and the ocean. I searched for the Great Mew, but I couldn't find her. However, I was enjoying the search. I was fascinated by the creatures of the ocean. I could never imagine that such amazing and beautiful creatures were in only one part of the planet.

-If the Great Mew lives in this planet, I now can understand why- I said while seeing some creatures of blue color swimming away from e.

The days and the nights passed, one by one, but I couldn't find the Great Mew. I thought to put together all the water of the planet in one point to search better, but I discarded the idea quickly, because that could damage the ecosystem of the planets and it's living beings, which were very pretty and I considered that the nature of the planet was worthy to protect.
