Aquamarine took a deep calming breath before letting it all go, her sights determined on figuring out how to get onto Bloodstone's ship or at least hoping they found a way off of it. She would be there waiting for them either way, hoping that none were hurt or that Blood would be lenient on them just this once. It was probably a long shot but he hadn't attack her earlier...he had even spoken to her a bit so maybe...no, she couldn't afford to think that way. She shook her head to rid her thoughts,now that she had finally calmed and set some of her emotions of the past aside, she felt the hand on her shoulder and saw the look of confusion on Melanite's face. The other gem hadn't seen Bloodstone's not so nice side or how he was when fighting so of course it would be a strange reaction to see from Aqua, getting in such an upset. 

She smiled at the young gem, giving the hand on her shoulder a light squeeze before her attention turned to Spinel and she nodded. [color=7bcdc8]"Thank you Spinel, please lead the way and we shall both follow."[/color]Aqua replied. They walked a good ways, following Spinel until they had reached the last spot they had been seen. She noticed there was no warp pad and frowned a bit, bending down to touch the Earth that had been disturbed by Chromite's warp. She didn't like the thought of another HomeWorld gem being around or helping Blood but there was nothing she could about that. Aquamarine stood, looking at the two young gems before her and shook her head softly,[color=7bcdc8]"I know you can be out of the way of danger if need be though that will never stop my worry over your safety but I need you to watch over Melanite right now. I need someone to protect her and get her to the safety of the temple since she cannot summon her weapon yet. I am counting on you to protect her for me and do what I can't since I need to try to get to Sodalite, Evenkite and even Reggie. I promise that I am tougher than I look and I will be alright without back up. Night is falling fast, I would be more at ease if you made it out of Kindergarten before it gets darker than it already is."[/color]
