SkySapphire instincts told her to get them out of the castle. But she knew that it would be pointless. EarthRubys would definitely find them. She thought 'so why brother?' SkySapphire rolled her eyes.

"Where is EarthRubys? Do you know?" SkyDiamonds asked. She answered, "EarthRubys should be in the-" she paused to think the where abouts of her mother "- throne room!... living with your enemy-" she looked up at the roof then back at the SkyDiamonds. Awkward smile on her face "-for a few weeks you will learn. There movements"

Her smile faded when she looked at SkyDiamonds. Still angry at her from that huge that they fight they had. He asked "why?" SkySapphire laughed at this. "SkyDiamonds! I told you I have lived with EarthRubys! For weeks" she laughed. SkyRubys sensing another fight. Stepped in.

"SkyDiamonds listen to her see doesn't know!" Then SkyRedstone sort of laughed. Then SkyRubys gave SkyDiamonds a serious look making him back off.

SkyRubys had gotten the confidence to to ask SkySapphire the truth if she was the daughter of EarthRubys. She brought her to the side. Where SkyDiamonds and SkyRedstone couldn't hear. "Are you the daughter of EarthRubys?" She asked her straight forward. SkySapphire looked down at the floor in embarrassment as she answered "... yes... how did you find out?" She smiled at her as she looked up SkyRubys. Then she modestly said "just how EarthRubys talked to you" SkyRubys answered.

A few hours later. Out of nowhere SkySapphire heard footsteps. "Someone's coming" she breathed. SkySapphire's eyes darted up to look at the others. No one had started panicking, it looked like no one had heard her. So she repeated what she said. Only louder, SkySapphire instructed were each person should hide.

They didn't know where she meant. She rolled her eyes. Then pointed to each persons hiding spot. SkyDiamonds hide near the table. SkyRubys and SkyDiamonds under her bed.

The footsteps belonged to EarthDiamonds. He was in a rather good mood. Surprisingly, he opened the door gently. He looked at her in a straight. "I know your hiding the Sky people! I'm on your side" EarthDiamonds said. SkySapphire stood there in shock as he repeated the last thing he said but slower.

She was speechless, but after a little bit SkySapphire finally spoke. "Why? What... has changed since the last hour to make you change sides?" SkySapphire asked. He shrugged, then smirked exactly how EarthRubys did. This made SkySapphire realise that this wasn't EarthDiamonds. But she didn't say anything. Wanting more proof.

Suddenly he said "I guess I realised how... how _evil_ EarthRubys was" out of the corner of her eye. She saw SkyRedstone comming out from her writing table. She moaned quietly. SkySapphire saw a nervous smile on his face. Confirming her theory. She slowly drew her sword, just like she did in the telporter. When EarthGang attacked. "You lie, EarthRubys!" Yelled SkySapphire anger surging through her voice. 'EarthDiamonds' laughed again confirming her theory.

As the laughter continued 'EarthDiamonds' slowly turned back into EarthRubys. The hair changed quickly. The eyes changed slowly. When the transformation had finished. She turned to face her daughter then said.

"your just like me... EarthSapphire!"
