Kyanite

Kyanite stuck her tongue out in response to Onyx’s grumbling, though it wasn’t quite visible since she was still facing the wall.

“Well, someone’s obviously gotten pretty good at sneaking up on Gems and poofing them.” Kyanite shuddered as the last sensations she had felt before ending up here rushed back to her. Magnetite yelling from up ahead only to be cut off suddenly. Large, metal-coated arms grabbing her from behind. She had flung a barrier up at her attacker’s head and heard something clatter to the ground, but whatever it was didn’t seem fazed by the blow. Her struggling hadn’t helped much either, kicks merely bouncing off of their armor with hollow clangs. The attacker had squeezed the small Gem against their chest plate, tighter and tighter until her form had dissipated.

Kyanite was brought back to the present by Magnetite’s navigational babbling. She crossed her arms and pushed the memory of having her form crushed away. It was actually only one of a few times she had been poofed. Though she doubted it was something you could get used to.

“Great,” She answered, sounding chipper enough not to betray her discomfort, “So we’re in the one corner of this planet you- Eugh! What is that?”

Kyanite recoiled from whatever had just splashed up all over her boots and legs, forgetting whatever quip she had been about to make. Stars, it smelled horrible! “I don’t care what it isn’t, give me a warning if you’re going to keep dumping things all over the floor like that!”

She attempted to pat her tights dry with her gloves, but to her growing disgust only found herself making more of a sticky mess. She gave up, rubbing her hands together to at least get rid of the stick there. “Of course this isn’t the rebels’ fault! We’re the ones getting Gem-napped all over the place!”


Magnetite

The sudden shift in the Gem next to her’s tone struck Magnetite as odd. She looked over, taking in their large size and multiple eyes as they spoke. Some sort of fusion? she thought, but kept the observation to herself. She wasn’t sure why two Gems would be fused in this sort of situation... Really, she didn't know why two Gems would fuse at all unless they had to. Then again she hadn't had the best experiences with fusion in the past.

“I’m Magnetite, and I’m sure you know that's Kyanite by now,” She said, pointing to herself and then the cell across from them. She was still suspicious, but Aquamarine had a point about having to call each other something. And she'd rather be called by her name than something stupid.

There was a prolonged creeeeaaak from what sounded like the other end of the corridor. It was coming from just past the end of the cell Onyx and Kyanite were in. Something clomped slowly into the room, creaking softly but regularly as it moved. Magnetite ran over to the window facing the hall, but cursed when she realized it was too tall for her, even when she stood on her toes. She scowled and grabbed the grate, bracing her feet against the wall. She looked a bit silly, stubbornly trying to pull herself up onto the window ledge that was clearly too high.

((It's fine! I was just scared everyone was done tbh ;>.> Sorry about worrying over it so much))

Kyanite

“If I see to do something that I see to be fit, I’ll do it!” Kyanite repeated, mocking Onyx’s tone. Still, she stepped back to let him do whatever he was about to do.

There was the soft sound a Gem makes when expending a lot of energy at once, and then there was something else in the room with them. It hissed and clattered somewhere in front of where she could hear Onyx’s movements. Kyanite waited tensely, hoping this was some part of the other Gem’s plan. She flinched as the grate was thrown near her, and scampered a few more steps in the opposite direction.

There was suddenly more commotion, but it was directed at the door in front of them. Kyanite relaxed, now certain that whatever it was had to be under her cell-mate’s control. There was a final thump, then Onyx announcing that it was down. Kyanite sent a small pulse out to be sure. She felt the opening, Onyx leaning on the wall next to it, and someone just outside. Onyx himself sounded a little winded, but that wasn’t really much of her concern. He’d be fine.

“Huh, well that was some good work! Whatever that was,” She told him as she walked through the door grinning. She stopped just short of running into whomever was in the hallway. “Aqua?” She asked, guessing from their voice that it was the other Gem from the cell across from hers.

Magnetite

There was a muffled ‘bang’ outside, and whatever had entered the corridor was getting closer. Magnetite’s frustration grew. She had to see what was out there, but the window was just too high. Just a little- The sound of screeching metal ripped Magnetite’s focus from the window.

The door was kicked down, and Aquamarine was staring at her from outside the cell. Magnetite hesitated briefly before letting go of the window and dropped back down. Well sure, if I was that strong I would have just done that too… She grumbled internally. All she said out loud, however, was “Yeah.”

She brushed off the grime the bars had left on her hands as she joined the other Gems in the hallway. There wasn’t a lot of room in the small space between cells, at least, not with three Gems trying to crowd into it. There was one more door they would have to knock down before they could get into the main corridor. Something was definitely outside it, clattering more erratically than it had been before. As if it were in a panic over what to do about the Gems around it escaping their cells….
