Treasure Hunt
Last time our new pink friend has told the whole story of him and the weapon. Now Jasper and Comet all gathered up a huge group to cover more ground to find the hole she hid the shield in. It will take a whole day to find it. But once they find it, I don't think their journey is done yet.
Comet stopped and announced everyone"Alright we're here, the prime Kindergarten. Well you know the rules, let's fan out and search the area for that weapon. And remember, if anyone asks." and they all answered, "Tell no one." "Good." Comet said,"Let's split into groups. Prehnite, obsidian and amber will go to the Far East of the kindergarten. Me, jasper and jaime will search for the Far West side of the Kindergarten. We'll be checking the holes from both sides, we'll meet back here if you found it." Then they all nodded, except jasper whose just loitering around the walls. Then two groups of three all went to their opposite directions. While a flying shadowy figure is hovering above them.
The cave gems all searched from top to bottom, was a bit boring for some time. Bluebird Azurite peaked around the corner to see what their doing, however they were kinda taking a bit long so bluebird was kinda impatient, she then decides to look for the other group instead.
"This is such a good opportunity for me, I've always love to go on a treasure hunt. finding ancient artifacts, looking around in a new area. I feel like I'm in my favorite movie. I even packed a lot of stuff I need to go on treasure hunts, I'm technically good at this." Jaime said, but jasper told her,"Just hope that skill of yours backfires. I've dug up holes before back at my kindergarten, I'm sure I'll beat you without using tools." Jaime then said,"Oooh Is that a challenge?" Jasper then talked back at her,"If you wanna lose that is." Comet cut off their argument and said,"You two have your little competition if you want, but check this out-"
"I don't know, I really like the design. And is that actual gold?" Jaime asked while pointing at her new weapons. Comet answered,"I don't know, I never asked her that. Probably just plain old metal that make it designed gold. Like pyrite." Jaime corrected her,"No pyrite actually has less luster and shine than gold. and they weigh less than real gold." "I guess that's true." Comet said. But jasper wasn't listening, once jaime and Comet both turned their heads to jasper all the holes were dug out already. They all have shocked looks on their faces, Jasper leaned to the wall with a winning smile on her face "No sign of a silver shield anywhere, must be farther down." Jasper kept going while Jaime and Comet are trying to catch up to her. Bluebird was buried in dirt and brushed off the dirt of her face, and in her mouth ew. She then floated towards them.
The three all stop to take a break, they're at the center of the Kindergarten where the injectors were shut down. "Yikes, I never noticed how scary this place is until now." Jaime said, "Yeah, and I think it's best not to think about it." Comet said to her, knowing that she finds out this is where gems are made and how they're destroying the environment this could traumatize her. Then the cave gems all reunited with the three and asked, "Any luck finding it?" "Sorry no." They answered. "We'll keep looking, even if it takes a long time to find it." They all sat down to take a rest,"But we're not be able to find it if we don't have any hints of where it's buried." Comet then explains out loud to them,"Well she said she went to the Kindergarten, but it will take a long time to get to there by foot. She must have used a warp pad." Jasper then said,"We're at the center of the Kindergarten, and the warp pad is next us. Then it must be nearby." then jaime talked along with them," And you said that she buried the weapon, so it must be a hole that was already filled up. Look for a hole that's not like the others, they are completely lined up together." 'Then it's settled." Prehnite stood up,"We'll all search this area together." They all nodded and they break out and searched the area. Bluebird Azurite said to herself, "Look for a hole that'd not like the others. Well that sounds easy enough." Then went to join the search party in secret.
Jaime then noticed one hole was missing and immediately dug out the hole with her shovel she packed earlier. She then hits something, she dust off the dust to she a shiny metal. Then she dug out and pull it out of the hole and shouted, "Hey guys! I found it, I actually found it! Told you I was good at this." But then Bluebird snatched the weapon out of her hands, "Agh!" Jaime screamed, her scream alerted everyone and all ran up to help her. "And I'm good at stealing it." She then giggled, "Bluebird! Hand over the shield now!" Jasper shouted, the other three gems first saw her and here are their reactions to seeing her.
Prehnite: Is that a Fusion?
Amber: She looks so odd?
Obsidian: But a little cute.
"Aw thank you" Bluebird politely thanked her, "But I'm also deadly, Let's test this weapon out shall we? prepare for your doom!" She then pointed the shield at their direction to attack. But nothing happened, Bluebird pointed the shield at them again. Nothing happens. Impatient and annoyed she winged the shield around in order to do something. And everyone is just staring at her in confusion. Until she finally stopped, "What's wrong with this thing!? It doesn't even do anything!"
they all turned to obsidian with scared looks, comet then said, "Dang your blaster is more deadly than her?" Obsidian nervously laughed and said, "It's still a work in progress." Amber then used her powers and captured bluebird.
"So, should we tell her that we knew she was following us?" Comet asked, Bluebird act in surprised and asked,"What! You knew I was following you all?!" "I mean it's very obvious, it's soldier instincts." Comet answered, and jasper added,"Yeah I mean we heard you screaming from a mile away." Bluebird then gave out an embarrassed look and shouted like some angry squirrel. "One silver shield found." Jaime then gave the shield to Comet, "This shield doesn't seem to work on her though, maybe it only works when pink zircon holds it." But jasper said,"But that doesn't make sense, it's made from the diamonds how can it not work. Anyone should be able to use it, it worked on her but not on Bluebird?" then comet said,"Maybe she's a heartless monster?" "What did you call me!?" Bluebird shouted angrily, then starts thrashing about. "Struggle all you want, but your not gonna get out of this one." Amber reminded her. "Maybe we should ask the zircon to tell us how this thing works. We could use the nearby warp pad." Then jasper had a sinking feeling inside her like something feels off about this whole treasure hunt. But all of them just went to the warp pad anyway.And took captured bluebird just in case.
Once they came back, Little homeworld was in flames and smokes. And some of the buildings were destroyed, all of them gave out shocked looks. "Um, what happened here?"
