If Spinel had ever had a nightmare to know what one was, she could honestly say seeing Bloodstone stand there with Aquamarine's gem, immediately after another one had just been destroyed, was her worst.  She was shocked when Bloodstone handed her Aquamrine's gem with no explanation as to why, just orders to go home.  "Th-thank you..." she managed to stammer out.  It was unsatisfying, but that was all she could think of to say.  "I'll pay you back for this, I'm sure you'll need me to someday."  Feeling like she didn't owe Bloodstone- or at least that she wouldn't owe him forever- was important right now, as Spinel needed as few things on her mind as possible. 

  She fought hard to maintain her composure and not get emotional, not now.  She found something like a pouch in her clothing and carefully tucked Howlite's shards away, but she kept Aquamarine in her hand.  The constant confirmation that Aqua was still there helped keep Spinel together.  She walked back to the warp pad, which she had only moved so many paces away from and stood there.
