What was most surprising, however, was the reason for her scolding; attacking the Seraphinite? If anything, Clinohumite would have expected fault for her rashness and lust for battle, but instead she is verbally assualted her abuse of the tiny shouting gem? Was that not proper punishment for traitorous behavior in a gem, or had Homeworld educated her insufficiently? Furthermore, what was this talk of [color=f6989d][i]"Seraphinites aren't a gem to be thrown around!"[/i][/color], but the great super-soldiers of the Clinohumites are? It was all just such a confusing mesh of punishment for such a weird reason in the clouded, strictly loyalist eyes of the orange gem. As the shield engulfed the Newborns and their Homeworld protector, Clino could hear fragments of the rebel's dialogue as Tugtupite tried to retreat as best she could. First was the blabber from the Aquamarine, a senseless essay on how personal freedoms blah blah blah. If anything, personal freedoms is what leads to such traitorous ways and deeds! Second, was the Moldevite's shameless try at insulting the orange gem and her gracious superior. [color=8dc73f][i]"Hey you Tugtupite. I'd recommend dropping that shield of yours. It wont protect you from us and giving those little ones a cage to fight that bear of a Clinohumite who looks like shes ready to shatter a few of them. Get her to settle down before I have to come down there and discipline the lot of you with science."[/i][/color] Such a statement only fueled Chloe's scalding, emotional flame, bringing her to shout a biting response. [color=f7976a][b][i]"And how many gems have you 'accidentally' shattered with your perverted science, traitor!?"[/i][/b][/color] Clino would've continued if it were not for a certain, emerald blur flashing throughout the cavern. Its speed and ferocity was impressive indeed, causing Chloe's fellow newborns and even Tugtupite to dodge quickly in order to avoid being poofed. Razor wings and deadly weaponry flashed about as the protecting barrier surrounding Clino and her colleagues disintegrated with ease, leaving only the orange gem and her opponent standing; Seraphinite. Chloe was nearly speechless, suddenly realizing the power that she had been messing with before her outburst. It was no wonder she was so severely scolded. Putting her head in her hands and chuckling loudly, Clinohumite greeted the green gem with muffled, anxious happiness. [color=f7976a][i]"Oh, goodness, you really don't pull any punches, do you? Straight to your 'final form'. I really like it Seraph"[/i][/color], Clino complimented, her eyes gazing over the waiting gem with a more respectful viewpoint this time around. [color=f7976a][i]"I'll be careful to not disrespect you so hard next time"[/i][/color], Clino said as she graded up her enemy. The Seraphinite was almost soulless this time around, but from this unnatural callousness their rose such a singular intensity; so much like that of Clinohumite's want to destroy the rebels in front of her. All of this passion, from a thing that was so confused and sassy before? Something so confused about where they are? What they are? What their going to do? What they... they... [center]Chloe teared up a little bit.[/center] The Seraph had been feeling so much of what the Clinohumite had been feeling, hadn't she? So confused, angry, and now in such a mixture of both. What a shameful thing was it to arrogantly disregard those insecurities and just yell at the vulnerable gem. How could she have done all that, just out of frustration and anger towards someone other than them? The Clinohumite's pride fell away for just a moment as she talked to the Seraphinite gem. [color=f7976a][i]"Hey... I-i'm sorry for what I said and did. You've obviously been through a lot... a lot that I have been through also... maybe... I really am at fault here... And, really, I deserve what's coming..." "But... Damn it, you know what, let's blow off all that steam right now! We'll start off clean, and have an equal chance to injure each other all we want. We both need something to punch at, and we're both riled up, so let's get to it! Don't keep anything back, and I won't either!"[/i][/color] [color=f7976a][i]"Tugtupite, regard this as my punishment for disobeying orders and attacking a colleague" [/i][/color] [i][color=f7976a]"You [b]filthy[/b] rebels also should keep your heads out of this. Science won't be able discipline two, angered battle-ready gems. I assure you of that"[/color][/i] [center][b]The [i]Beautiful~[/i] Battle Begins![/b][/center]
