Cobblestone looked at his new gemling. Sitting in his little room at the mineral gem fortress he just held it in his hand.

"You're cute little one." Cobblestone commented. "I have got to think of a name for you." He pondered. "Meh it will come to me later." He whispered.

Placing the gemling on a table by his sleeping space. "Stay there and sleep." He ordered the tired little gemling. Slipping off into sleep he laid there on his mattress.

Meanwhile the crafty gemling crawled off the table directly onto Cobblestone. Crawling until it was on his chest it curled up into a ball and slept.

Hours passed as the two rested. Until the sirens blared. Cobblestone jumping up almost didn't catch the gemling as it fell. Placing the baby gem back on the table. "Stay here!" He commanded running out of the room.

Running outside he ran to the nearest hangar he could find. Jumping into a fighter he flew off to battle.

"This is Obsidian. All fighter craft we have a 300 crystal gem attack incoming get ready." A familiar voice rang through out the cockpit.

Flying into formation he readied for the air battle. "This is Obsidian all craft group up on me I have the warhead." Obsidian ordered through the radio.

Getting into formation Cobblestone looked around for his friend. Spotting him in the middle he readied the fighter. Engaging the advanced battle systems of his fighter he spotted the enemy.

It looked like a cloud of nothing but aircraft. "Engage!" Obsidian screamed. The guns on the small force of mineral gem fighters lighting up. Ion bolts flying out of the guns faster than the casing could eject.

The heavy fire swatting a majority of the enemy out of the sky. Plowing straight through the attack the fighters started splitting off as they neared their target.

A crystal gem mega carrier. The source of the failed attack. Cobblestone being the last fighter to split off he flew as fast as he could away from the carrier. "Launch!" He heard Obsidian frantically yell.

Initiating the afterburners he tried to escape from the potentially fatal blast. Then a light 10 times brighter than the sun shown behind him. A loud roar boomed as the warhead detonated.

Cobblestone sighed in relief. Then his craft shut down. Plummeting towards the ground he tried to glide to no effect. The EMP from the blast disabled his craft.

"This is Cobblestone! I've lost power I say again lost power!" He cried as he fell from the sky. Ramming nose first into the ground he was severely injured. Glass, metal and circuitry shrapnel imbedded in his armor.

He broke the glass around him and crawled out. Turning around he could see the massive ship crash. After that he could see a mushroom cloud.

Standing there admiring Obsidians work he could hear something faint. "Is that crying?" He thought. Looking around he couldn't find the source.

He looked inside his fighter, around the area, and under rocks. He then checked his pockets. Grabbing an object he pulled out his gemling.

"How! How in the! What! Not possible!" He screamed. Making the gem cry even louder. Taking off his helmet he pulled it up to his face. "Look it's me. It's OK now." He cooed. The gemling instantly crawling towards his face.

Crawling on his face it found a comfortable spot on his neck. Grabbing his neck the gemling hugged it as hard as it could. Shivering as it curled up.

"C'mon lets get you back to my place." He muttered to the gemling. Looking up he saw a rescue craft landing. Obsidian in tow to rescue his friend.

And that is part 1 only 2 more to go. What will happen? Who knows.
