The area was warm and soft around the the green gem. Thoughts were swimming around in the gem; random and jumbled. She felt calm and serene, not caring about what was going on around her. Yet the ground began to grow cold to her. She felt a lack of nutrients being absorbed. The shock of this began to align the thoughts of the gem. She began to think.

What was she? Oh... She remembered that she was a gem. The gem also realized that she was in a hard rock. A little annoyed by this, she desired for a bit more space. But what would she do? What was she made for? Maybe these thoughts will come to her in a moment. Right now, she wanted to break out. Concentrating, the gem began to take her form. The rock around her began to crack and light seeped from the fissures. The rock crumbled away and the gem shot out. Taking form, the gem fell to the ground. 

The gem rubbed her eye as she began to remember. Her name was Serpentine. Or she was a Serpentine. She placed a hand over her gem; right where her left eye should be. Smiling, Serpentine pushed herself up and stretched. She was glad that she was out of the ground and it was high time that she left. She lowered her arms slowly when she took noticed of her surroundings. It looked dead. She felt lost. Within herself, Serpentine began to realize why she was made. She was made to take orders. She was made to hide. And... She was made to kill. But who? And who does she take orders from? 

Sighing, Serpentine began to look around. She didn't see anyone ore anything around, just big machines. The lanky gem started walking, searching for somebody. Yet she felt a bit afraid. Maybe she should hide and wait? Serpentine grimaced and continued on. She had to find somebody. [color=598527]"Hello? Anyone?"[/color]
