Candice's eyes slightly narrowed at Bloodstone when he dismissed her question and said that he was there for Mars. She subtly tensed, bracing herself for an attack directed at her without letting him know. However, the gem humanoid seemed to have his attention directed elsewhere and he rushed back to the platform and disappeared. She raised her eyebrow. What could have happened to cause him to leave?
She snapped out of her thoughts when she heard someone fall and she turned to see Mars kneeling. She hurried over to him in concern and she kneeled next to him, asking "Mars! Are you alright?" She could see that he was dazed and confused, so she wasn't surprised that he didn't seem to hear her and instead asked his own questions. She raised her eyebrows at how his voice had changed after suggesting that they leave this place, and how his voice sounded older and wiser than before, when he was much more childlike and curious. She made a mental note to not forget those words, and how he seemed shocked and confused.
She offered her hand to him in order to help him stand up if he needed and she answered him, hoping to snap him out of his thoughts, "Let's get out of here. I don't like this place either. I'll answer your questions along the way,"
After he stood up (with or without her help), she led him out of Kindergarten and headed for Mohs Town, answering his questions, hoping to make him feel somewhat better than he was when he felt shocked. As she walked on and spoke with Mars, she wondered if she could convince him to help her protect mankind. She was pretty sure that she wasn't going to be able to fight all of those gem humanoids off and live if they all decide to gang up on her.
