The Missing Diamond

Chapter 17 healed?

We put iris's gem on a pillow while we disused how we could heal her "why don't we jus call her parents can't they heal her?" amethyst asked "well now they think she's shattered and they would shatter us for hurting her" "but we didn't hurt her" "no but they will think we did it" garnet said holding the pillow with her gem on it "how do you know that" "one of the many possibilities for the future" "oh right you see the future" "yes well many possible outcomes" "what should we do then" I asked we all sat for a bit "Oh what about rose's healing spring!" Pearl shouted "pearl keep it down her gem is already cracking but good idea let's go there" we got up and went to the warp pad going to the healing spring "do you really think this will work?" I asked "it's our last resort if this doesn't work then she'll shatter for good" we got to the spring garnet took her gem and gently placed into the water or tears? I really don't know we sat and watched the gem for a few minutes the crack was healing very slowly i yawned "you two take steven home i'll stay with iris" garnet said not taking her eyes off her gem "but garnet" "Steven you need rest" "okay but i'll be back in a few hours" she nodded we left to go back to the temple I played my video game for two hours  "do you think she'll be okay?" I asked "who knows I'm guessing you're talking about iris" amethyst said "well yeah but garnet she hasn't looked away from her gem for hours" "she and iris have a very close relationship they have since iris was a baby she's like garnet's own daughter" I sat on my bed "what about blue and yellow diamond they're her biological parents" pearl looked up at me "as far as they know she's shattered which could be a good thing for us however they could seek revenge" "do they even know I'm back on earth?" "Probably not but they would sure try" I squinted "how do you know so much about the diamonds pearl" "yeah p why do you know so much about them" "I i um" she covered her mouth "come on pearl you can tell us" "yes well you should go to bed steven i'll go check on garnet" she left on the warp pad 

Garnet pov

I was watching iris's gem slowly heal when the warp pad went off pearl walked over "garnet you've been here for hours now if you want I can stay and watch her" "no i'll stay here for as long as it takes besides she's almost done healing" pearl looked over my shoulder "it should be another two hours or so" I felt pearl put something around me "here it's supposed to get cold tonight" "thanks" she left I closed my eyes for a split second then I realized I slept for three hours  I looked at iris's gem it was completely healed I picked it up and dried it off then I placed her on a pillow and brought her back to the temple steven was asleep "garnet is she alright?" Amethyst asked "she's fine now all we do is wait" "how long would that take?" I sat down the pillow with her gem on my lap "it could take weeks it's her first regeneration" "you should rest garnet you look tired" I hummed "I'll rest with iris's gem in case she reforms" I went to iris's room and laid down in her bed I put my hand on her gem and fell asleep hours later I woke up steven was watching me "steven how long have you been there" "a few minutes ago" I looked down and noticed iris and the pillow was gone "where's iris has she reformed?" He shook his head "no I put her gem under a heating lamp" I got up and went to the living room I saw her gem on the counter with a lamp overtop of it I sat on a chair and watched her gem "garnet you need to do something other than watch her gem all day" pearl told me "I will when she reforms" "garnet it's not healthy to just sit and watch her all day and night" "I'm not a human pearl I'm fine" "you're paranoid" I looked at her "I am not pearl" she sat beside me "I know you worry about her you both do but it's going to take longer the more you watch her" I sighed "I know pearl it's just her first time and I'm worried that she won't reform" Steven pearl and amethyst hugged me "it'll be okay she'll reform" Steven said "I hope so" "we all do"
