[OOC: This takes place after Garnet's liberation from the IRS building in Unexplainable things. Evasto had allowed himself to be blown to bits, and Garnet was removed from the IRS building by an unknown individual who apparently has connection to Evasto. So now, we join Garnet as she's brought to Evasto's ship, the Mitternacht. Also, this plot is intended for characters at or under Tier 5 (following Shau's Tier system) Anyone over Tier 5 can only serve as NPCs & not fight in any battles, since I intend this to be reasonably balanced.] *Garnet lay in a daze. Because of the injuries dealt to her by Agent Clark, the events that transpired after she was removed from the Agent's presence were a blur to her. She remembered that Evasto was, all this time, the very man she had been dating for several months now. And now she found herself on a medical cot on a ship. She never saw who grabbed her and removed her from the IRS building, so she had no clue what was in store for her. Not too long ago she had been medically treated a bit, but why they didn't treat all her wounds she wasn't quite sure of, but figured they did so in order to keep her steady for the trip. She wanted to get up and see where exactly she was and find out where exactly she was going, but she felt too drained, too weak.* Garnet: Uhh....I don't get it...I felt fine before...Well, as fine as one can feel after getting swatted around by an Agent... *Garnet attempted to sit up, but due to her weakened state, she fell back heavily and groaned* Garnet: Fuck...well I don't think I'll be getting anyplace at this rate.. *With a sigh, Garnet just let herself relax, and due to her drained and exhausted state, she quickly fell unconscious. When she awoke, she found herself immersed in a bacta tank, hooked up to a breathing apparatus, and also was pretty much nude. Through the refraction and slight haze of the bacta, Garnet could make out a 2-1B medical droid attending to the controls of the tank nearby, and a FX-10 droid stood close by, and beyond the 2-1B droid was a window, behind which Garnet saw three forms: The forms of Avya and Xiata, who had her arms folded across her chest, and a third, taller form behind them, swathed in black. Yet, she couldn't make any details out on the third observer, for the instance she blinked, the form was gone. Garnet moved her hand up to the glass of the tank, then looked at her arm in reaction the resistance she felt due to the bacta's viscosity. Beyond the glass opening into the treatment room, Xiata turns her head to one side slightly, noting Garnet's movements* Xiata: It appears our visitor has finally woken up. Avya: She sure took one hell of a beating. -she looks to Xiata- Did you hear the 2-1B's diagnosis before she was placed in the bacta tank? Xiata: Yes, I had. Moderate head trauma, apparently caused by a fast-moving blunt object, and two severe wounds, one in her right shoulder and the other on the side of her left hip. The bacta should make short work of her injuries, but she may need to be in the tank for a day or two for the two severe ones to fully heal. *Avya nods and looks back into the treatment room, clasping her hands behind her back. Two long days then pass by, Garnet watching from the tank as Avya and Xiata returned every so often to check on her progress over those two days. Garnet also tried to keep herself reasonably active while she remained in the tank, in order to prevent her muscles from atrophying a bit from disuse. At around noon on the second day, the 2-1B droid drained the bacta tank, which the droid had done before to replace the used bacta, but this time it wasn't replaced. Garnet folded her arms across her chest, clasping the sides of her upper arms as the bacta drained away. After it did, the clasp on her breath mask detached itself and it came loose from Garnet's face. She jumped a little when it did this, but, after a pause, she removed it. She the coughed a couple times and furrowed her brow a little, using one hand to push aside her hair, which was slick with the bacta and stuck to her face.* Garnet: Au...Man, so thats what bacta smells like...I'm gonna be smelling that for a while..Geez, I can taste it too. Never would've thought it had such a sickly sweet smell and taste.. *After a moment the tube rose up into the part of the tank that was over Garnet's head. She watched it go up, looking at the top of the tank, before..* 2-1B Droid: Miss Garnet Keely? That is your name, correct? *Garnet looked down at the 2-1B droid, which had moved from the controls and was standing in front of the tank* Garnet: ...Yeah, yeah it is. 2-1B Droid: Excellent, you seem to be in working order now. Would you be so kind as to step down onto the floor? Garnet: Ok. *She steps off the platform of the bacta tank onto the floor, still holding her arms across her chest. After she exits the opened tank..* 2-1B Droid: Please lower your arms. *Garnet looks at the medical droid, and after a pause she moves her arms to her sides. After she does, the droid checks the status of her injuries, as well as her overall body state. After the droid finishes..* 2-1B droid: Your injuries have healed without any negative results, and you appear to be functioning just fine. Now, please follow me. *The droid heads off to a door, leading to another part of the room. Garnet follows the droid, ending up in a shower room. In there, she showered, removing the remaining bacta from her body. After she finished and dried off, the droid handed her a comfortable white shirt and pants, which Garnet changed into, before she was escorted to a sort of recovery room, where she sat down and back against the wall, while the droid left. Garnet sat on the bench, trying to make sense of the events that wound up bringing her here. Before she could get any further thought in on the subject, the sliding doors of the room opened, and in walked Avya and Xiata. Garnet quickly snapped out of her mind-wandering on seeing the two Sith enter, nearly jumping to her feet, but she didn't manage to accomplish that, since Xiata lifted one hand, pushing Garnet back onto the seat with the Force.* Xiata: Lets not begin jumping around, you've been in a bacta tank for two days, the last thing you need is to injure yourself. Garnet: ..Holy fuck, you're still alive?! But you squared off with that Chinese Agent, I figured she killed you! Xiata: She came close to doing so, but I have my methods of getting out of such..sticky situations. *She folds her arms, moving to Garnet's left side, Garnet watching her.* Garnet: So why am I here? Are you going to torture me or something to find out about the Magnus Crystal? Xiata: If we had gone through the trouble of treating your injuries, why would we inflict more? Garnet: ...Touche. *Xiata uncrosses her arms, bringing them to her sides* Xiata: Lord Evasto has given us express instructions to ensure your stay here is comfortable. He wishes to speak to you, but it will be approximately a week from the day you got here before he can. Since you've recovered, we'll be escorting you to the quarters Lord Evasto has set aside for you. Avya: If you need anythin' to eat or drink, there's a holodevice in the room that has a map of the ship, and the food and drink storage is indicated on the map, as well as how to get there. If you have any other inquiries you can ask the trooper patrol nearby, who'll also be checking on you periodically. Garnet: All right. This is...weirdly hospitable for Sith. Xiata: As I said, Lord Evasto wished your stay here to be comfortable. Now come with us. *Xiata turns, her cloak flowing outward as she does, and heads out the door. Garnet gets up and follows, with Avya close behind. They wind up at a small, 6 person tram. Xiata steps inside, Garnet following as she looks around the interior, before she sits down on one of the seats, Avya doing the same. Xiata pushes a button near the door, which shuts and the tram starts off. Eventually they reach Garnet's quarters.* Avya: Here y'are. Xiata: Now, before we leave, is there anything you want to know? Garnet: Yeah...Why did Evasto go through all the trouble to get me here? Xiata: I'm afraid I do not know, but when Evasto returns he'll be able to answer that himself. Now, I must be off. *With that, she turns and leaves. Avya turns to follow, but after a couple steps, she stops and turns* Avya: Hey, uh.... Garnet: Yeah? Avya: ..How is Angie doing? Garnet: Free spirited and bubbly as ever. *Avya smiles* Avya: Thats good. Well, make yourself at home, I'll see you around. *With that, Avya leaves too. Garnet then heads into her room and sits down on the bed, her mind wandering off....* -------- *One week later, Garnet is lying on her bed, sorta zoning off. In the time between her arrival and now, not much has occured aside from a few things. Garnet observed Evasto's stormtroopers target practicing, and along with that met Varessa. She had also watched Xiata and Avya spar a few days afterwards. Garnet looked up as the door to her room slid open, and Varessa enters the room. Garnet then sits up* Varessa: Lord Evasto has returned, and he wishes to speak with you. Please, come with me. *Garnet nods slightly and gets up while Varessa turns and leaves, Garnet following close behind. After some time, Garnet and Varessa arrive in a darkened room, in which Garnet can sort of make out a black chair, gothically designed, ahead of her, with the back facing them. Varessa bows, before straightening out* Varessa: I've brought her as you requested, my lord. Evasto: Thank you, Varessa. You may leave us. Varessa: As you wish. *She nods while saying this, before turning and leaving, Garnet watching as she does. Once the Nightsister is gone, Garnet turns her attention back to Evasto's chair. Evasto then turns his chair around to face Garnet, one arm across his chest, the other resting on it and he has his hand near his mouth (hidden behind the darkness of his hood and mask) in a sort of a pondering manner.* Garnet: ...Even though I've been here for a week I still can't believe that you never told me the truth. I knew you were a little weird but..God, a Sith Lord!? Why didn't you ever tell me?! Evasto: I needed to get to you somehow, I found entering a relationship with you was the best course of action, as well as the most subtle. I did not need any extra attention from your friends. Garnet: But...why me?! You could've chosen anyone on the White Blade to date..well, except for Darth Magnus and Annakin..but instead you chose me. Out of everyone, you singled me out, and now I'm here on your ship. You saved my ass from that Agent, but for what reason? You could've just let him use my body to take out my friends... Evasto: Yes, I could have, but I didn't. I did not save your life to end it. I've gone through all this trouble to get to you, Garnet, for a very specific reason. Garnet: And what might that be? The Magnus Crystal? If that's the case I do- Evasto: -cutting her off- The Magnus Crystal is not my concern right now. *He grasps the armrests of his seat and stands up before going to Garnet, his 6'6 form towering over her.* Evasto: You remeber Idious, don't you? Garnet: ..Yeah, I remember him. Some crazy old man Sith lord, right? Evasto: Unfortunately. You see, Garnet, he was my apprentice. Garnet: He is?! Evasto: Was. He was my apprentice. He no longer is now, because he had exhausted his usefulness with his buffoonery, and so I found it necessary to...remove him. *He waves his hand slightly, violet electricty crackling up his arm as he says "remove him"* Garnet: Good Christ...Why'd you even take him as your apprentice? Evasto: When Idious was young, I saw great potential in him, but I did not foresee what the power would do to his mind. He became arrogant, but strangely, when he got older, he became more eccentric, clumsy, and for some odd reason became beset with bizarre misfortunes, especially after he constructed his lightsaber. Most of his misfortunes were, I admit, particularly amusing, but I don't keep apprentices for their entertainment value, only their usefulness. And since he had exhausted his usefullness, I eradicated him. But, in doing so, I left a space that needed filling, and so I sought an individual to fill that space. *He grasps Garnet's chin gently and lifts her head so she's looking up at him* Evasto: That individual is you, Garnet. The reason why I did what I did was not to get to the Crystal, but to get to you. Garnet: ...Me? But...Idious was a powerful Sith Lord, how could I possibly replace him? The only thing I could hold my own against is a badly made robot using a florescent lightbulb for a lightsaber. Evasto: Even the greatest masters have had bumps and ruts in the path to their current standing. You're no different, except you're virtually just starting out. But I see immense potential in you, Garnet, potential that could make you stronger than even Idious was or could ever hope to be. You just need the proper training. Garnet: But..How can I even use the Force? I know you're able to and all the other Sith and Jedi in this reality, but...how is it even possible? Evasto: The Force is generated by anything living. Plants, animals, humans, the list goes on. The energy field created by all these creatures is the Force, and exists everywhere, even here. Planets devoid of life are not devoid of the Force, because it's not a single planet or universe that generates it, it's generated by the inhabitants of the universe. It just goes under different monikers depending on the realm of existence. Here, someone who can use the Force to some extent is referred to as "psychic". Your friend Nariko is an excellent example of this. However, in the years I have used the Force, I have noticed it is more complex than a simple energy field created by living beings. In learning this I figured out how to invent my own, customized powers, instead of the familiar ones. Magnus has learned this as well, and Annakin to some extent. Garnet: Oh.... *Garnet seems to be unsure of what to think. Before Austin murdered her, she never would have expected to be standing here, on a ship from the Star Wars universe, face to face with a Sith Lord who she was sure could use Palpatine as a mop. She always expected she would go to college and eventually get a job, maybe even get married and have kids, before dying in her bed when she was 70. But no, apparently fate had more in store for her, so now here she stood, resurrected as a Nerocerian after being dead for nearly seven years, and now felt like she was Luke being tempted to the Dark Side by the Emperor, minus all the goading and emotional manipulation. So after a long pause, Garnet pulled back* Garnet: I..don't know right now, Evasto. I'll think about it... *Evasto straightens out, lowering his arm to his side* Evasto: As you wish. It is your choice to make, Garnet, so I will allow you think about it. Your friends may be worried about you so I will send you back to Earth. When you come to a decision, call for me and I will come. Garnet: All right. Thank you. *Evasto folds his arms, and Garnet quickly finds herself engulfed in darkness. In the Metropolis park, behind a tree that's part of the woods, an egg-shaped form of darkness phases in, before disappearing in tendrils, leaving Garnet standing there behind the tree.* Garnet: Holy shit, that felt weird. *She checks her clothes. During the week on the Mitternacht she had changed out of the recovery clothes to similar, shadowformed clothing she was wearing when she was in the IRS building. After checking her clothes, she sighs and steps around the tree, resting her hand on it before heading off, running her hand down the trunk lightly as she leaves. She eventually comes to a bench and sits down, leaning back and staring up at the blue sky.* Garnet: -sighs- ..I don't know what to do... |

Auron: well the good news there is that learning a specific combat style or element does not, and cannot, spontaneously change a person's moral or ethical beliefs by itself. well, there are some exceptions, like entropy, that can make ya go batshit...but that's a question more of that you've literally got pure chaos in your brain, but you know what I mean, dark power does not necessarily mean dark personality. |

Auron: you're half right. the power itself is harmless. it's been known to have odd physical effects, but you're a shapeshifter, I wouldn't worry too much about something changing your appearance, you can always change it back. hell, Ebony gave one of her forms a boob job a while ago. what's dangerous is the training style of the sith. I'm all for 'use your anger', but anger is a bottomless pit, it can sometimes be quite a trick to go in deep and come back out again, a lot of people lose their grip on the edges and fall. |

Auron: if you just want power, there's plenty of other ways to get it if you're not comfortable with this Sith stuff. if you just like this guy, and don't wanna do the whole apprentice thing, just be his girlfriend, tell him that. if he doesn't accept that...well come on, a guy who'll only date you if he's your master? control freak much? I'd say that'd be a sure sign you don't want this guy for a boyfriend. |

Auron: I'm not saying he is, but you have to consider the possibility that he is manipulating you by making everything your choice. a lot of people you know treat you like a kid, and he probably knows this, so if he treats you like an adult, you may be more likely to go his way. or it could be a lot simpler, he treats you like an adult, so you act like an adult, vis a vis... *Auron makes a little loop with his left thumb and index finger, points his right index finger, and pokes it through the loop repeatedly.* |

Auron: I'd ask if you trust him, but the guy's been lying to your for months about who he is. if you answered yes I'd seriously wonder where your brain is. so, more importantly, are you really in love with him, like, want to spend the rest of your life with him and it's worth the risk, or do you just like him because he treats you like a competant grown up instead of everybody's kid sister? |

Garnet: I actually do love him, and not just because he treats me like an adult. He may have kept the truth about him under wraps for all these months but...before I died I did date a few guys, and compared to him, they're...well, kinda lacking. He's intelligent, has good taste and knows how to treat a woman. He's not afraid to be open about things, and not only that he doesn't act like the word "sex" is bouncing around in his skull like some rabid lemur with JATO rockets strapped on it. He's never made me do something I didn't want to do at the time either. And yet...when you know what he truly is, you don't know whether all that he did was truth, or just a facade. |

*Auron laughed* Auron: oh, a lot of that, even if it is a fascade, may have little or nothing to do with him being a Sith. he's an older guy. a lot older, older than you realize. take it from a guy who's a hell of a lot older than even him, some more years, some less raging hormones, you learn some charm and some game. |

Auron: well, this....is kinda out of my area of expertise. God of War, not love. power, I know a lot about. your feelings...not so much. I will say this though, just as someone who's been in love a few times himself, if you're not comfortable with sith training, don't do it. just tell him you want to be his girlfriend, but not a sith. if he can't handle that, he doesn't love you, he just wants to manipulate you so he can use you to get the magnus crystals. |

Auron: and also, if you think doing this sith training, even if you can handle it, is gonna impress Kara or make her treat you differently, it's not. Kara doesn't like you. she doesn't like Ebony either. and that has nothing to do with your lack of power, or you at all really. it's Ebony's whole "I'm immortal, I'm invincible, look at me" routine, which she sees you as an offshoot of. |

Auron: really I think the most important question is, do you WANT to be a sith? assuming you could control it, is that even a path you're interested in? because if you are, there's always tomorrow so to speak, always time to learn some anger management techniques and all that so you can go into it with a clear head at a later date. it's not like you're getting any older. and if you're not interested, the whole thing is quite moot. |

Garnet: Yeah, good point. I think I'll give myself a day or two to think this over fully. Right now though I oughta get back to the White Blade. I've been gone for at least a week, so.... |

Garnet: -muttering- I wouldn't be surprised... *After Auron faded away, Garnet got up from the bench and walked off, sliding her hands into her pockets. As she walked, she ran over all that had transpired in her mind, from facing off with Clark, up until this point. She looks up to the sky, before looking back down* Garnet: Well there's no way I'm coming to a decision right this moment. I'll worry about it later, or even tomorrow. Right now I think I'll go pop over to a cafe and get something to eat. *Garnet heads off down the street, eventually finding a nice cafe in a public square. She heads inside and gets a sandwich and something to drink, before sitting down and starts on the sandwich. Outside, walking by the cafe is Sakuri. As she passes the window she looks in and stops in midstep the moment she sees Garnet* Sakuri: Is that Garnet..? But..how could it be? She died 7 or 8 years ago... *After standing there in silence for a moment, Sakuri snaps herself out of her stupor and heads into the cafe. Garnet puts her sandwich down just as Sakuri approaches* Sakuri: Excuse me. *Garnet turns in her seat, looking up at Sakuri. She raises an eyebrow, apparently a little surprised at the sight of the blue-haired woman.* Garnet: Uh, yes? Sakuri: I know this might sound a little weird but...would your name happen to be Garnet Keely? Garnet: Yeah, it is. How did you... Sakuri: -smiling- Garnet, its me, Sakuri! Garnet: Sa..Sakuri? Sakuri Nyoko? *Garnet gets up, before breaking into a grin and embraces her friend closely, Sakuri returning it.* Garnet: Oh my god, I didn't think I'd ever see you again! Sakuri: Neither did I. *They pull back* Sakuri: When I heard you had been murdered I thought I never would see you again, but it looks like I've been proven wrong. Though it seems quite impossible you would be alive... Garnet: Well, in normal circumstances, yeah, but I wound up getting ressurected by a couple new friends. Ever heard of Ebony Nerocerian? Sakuri: Mmm...Ah, yes! Yes, I have. She's a detective in the MPD, isn't she? Supernatural division. Garnet: Yeah. You seem to know quite a bit about her. Sakuri: -giggles- Well I like to keep up with the news. That and she had actually paid a visit to my massage parlor fairly recently. Garnet: Ohh, you're a masseur now? You always talked about how you wanted to be one someday. Looks like you followed through with that. *Sakuri nods with a smile* Sakuri: I do acupuncture as well, among a few other things. Garnet: Ha, wow, you've gotten quite a few facets. *She then finally notices something about Sakuri* Garnet: Hey...You look different than when I knew you. Sakuri: Oh? How? Garnet: Well...You used to be a bit shorter than me, but now you're virtually eye level. Not only that...your hair's blue, hell even your eyes are, kinda. You seem a lot happier than you did then, and to cap it all off... *She looks at Sakuri from head to toe* Garnet: You look, for a lack of a better word, gorgeous. Have you been working out or something? And what happened to your glasses? *Sakuri smiles* Sakuri: I'll answer all those questions in due time, Garnet. C'mon, lets sit down and talk, we should catch up on one another. *Garnet nods and sits back down, Sakuri manuvering around the table and sits down across from her* Sakuri: I should tell you this right off the bat, Garnet. Garnet: What? Sakuri: -leaning back a bit- I'm bisexual. Garnet: Really? Wow, I never would've thought you'd be. Though I'm not like thunderstricken or anything. A few of the girls at the place I live at are bi, too, so I'm pretty used to it. Sakuri: -smiles- Thats good to know, I was a little worried about how you'd react to that. Garnet: Heh, no problem. So are you with anyone, or...? Sakuri: Yes I am in fact, I've been in a relationship with a woman named Crystal for some time now. Garnet: Crystal? Does she have short, reddish hair? Sakuri: No. Why? Garnet: Oh, I know someone who has the same name. Different person apparently. Sakuri: What's the Crystal you know like? Garnet: Well..She's an angel. Literally. Sakuri: She's a real angel? Well, thats interesting. Who else lives with you? Garnet: Well, there's Ebony, who I mentioned to you already. There's her mother, Sakane, then there's Vive, a few guys.... Sakuri: Really? How many? Garnet: Four. Kash, Kedren, Annakin and Darth Magnus. Sakuri: Hold on, Annakin? Darth Magnus? Are they hardcore Star Wars fans or something? Garnet: -laughs- No, no there not. They're actual Jedi, from a different reality. Magnus looks like Darth Vader but he's got a blue outer and inner cloak, plus he's a little shorter and has a slightly higher voice. Annakin looks a lot like Hayden Christensen but he's a little taller, plus he's got a different eye color and he seems a lot more level-headed than Anakin was in the movies. He looks how Anakin did in Episode II, but his clothes are darker. Plus his lightsaber is green instead of blue. Sakuri: Real Jedi? You certainly live in a weird house. Garnet: Heh, well..actually, its a ship. Its called the White Blade. I think you probably might've seen it in the harbor if you've been around there. Seeing as how its a massive, white ship it wouldn't be hard to miss. Sakuri: Hm...Now that you mention it I have seen it a few times when I was down near the harbor. I never would have guessed you lived on it. Of course I had no idea you were even alive, so... Garnet: -giggles- Yeah. So how did you meet Crystal? Sakuri: Well I first met her when she came to my massage parlor. She recently lost her previous girlfriend, among other things in her life, so she was fairly stressed. She enjoyed the massage enough that she gave me her number before she left. Unfortuneately I didn't manage to call her, but it became moot after I encountered her in the park days after. So we talked and went for coffee, then eventually we went to her house and, well.. *She blushes* Garnet: -giggles- Say no more, I think I can interpret the rest. Sure sounds you like this girl, and that your affection is returned. I'd like to meet her sometime. Sakuri: -smiles- I'm sure you will sometime. |

At this point, Crystal (the person, not the angel) was on her way back from the grocery store. She wore her hair in its usual ponytail fashion, complimented with tight-fitting blue jeans and a "Math is delicious!" T-shirt. She was in the mood for something to drink, so she headed into the cafe, singing a little tune to herself as she did. "Seven rings in hand speed through nights with feet in sand/ Seven rings in hand wonders all under command..." As she approached the counter, she spied Sakuri out of the corner of her eye. Grinning, she came up and gave her a hug from behind. "Hey, fancy running into you here," she said sweetly. |

*Sakuri, feeling Crystal hug her, looks up and grins on seeing who it is* Sakuri: Crystal, good to see you! Heheh, funny, we were just talking about you. |

"Really? It is funny how that happens," said Crystal. "Who's your friend here?" |

Sakuri: Oh, this is Garnet Keely. Garnet, this is Crystal. Garnet: Hiya. Heh, I was actually hoping to get to meet you sometime. Looks like that happened sooner than I thought. |

"Hi there," replied Crystal, letting go of her hug on Sakuri. "Nice to meet you. I hope she's been telling you some good things." |

Garnet: Oh, she has. Its nice to meet you too, Crystal. *She smiles* Garnet: It's kinda weird to me calling you by that name since I'm so used to addressing someone else with the same name. |

"Heh, small world," remarked Crystal. "Hang on, let me get a drink and I'll rejoin you. You girls want anything while I'm up there?" |

Sakuri and Garnet: Water will do fine, thanks. *They look at each other before they start laughing* Garnet: Heheh...man I actually missed us saying things synchronously. Sakuri: -giggles and grins- |

Crystal giggled a bit to that herself, then went to the counter, returning a few minutes later with two waters and a medium glass of coffee. She handed out the water to the other two before seating herself. "So, Garnet, how'd you end up meeting Sakuri?" she asked. "It seems you two know each other pretty well." |

Garnet: Yeah, we do. She's been a friend of mine for quite a few years, alongside two other friends of mine, Nariko Sascha and Clarice Thadra, the latter of which I haven't seen in a long time. Sakuri: She's still around. -chuckling- She's still as selfless as she was when we were in high school. *Garnet smiles* Garnet: Thats good to know. Anyway, you probably wouldn't know it, but Sakuri used to be pretty anti-social. Not much of a talker and the kind of person who'd spend hours in a library rather than go home. In fact thats how I met her. When I was in 7th grade I was in the library with my class, since we were doing some class project type deal, and I saw Sakuri sitting all by herself some distance away. She was in my class and I never really noticed her until then. Seeing her all alone like that...well, I felt sorry for her since she seemed so alone, so I went over and talked to her, and eventually I wound up helping her with the project and, eventually, other things. She didn't talk much at first but as she grew to know me and my friends better, she opened up more. Sakuri: I came from a broken household, which is why I was like that when Garnet first met me. Like she said I opened up more as I got to know my friends better. But that blew apart after Garnet got murdered after her 19th birthday. I had begun to heal because of her and losing her like that....needless to say it was a heavy blow. |

Crystal found herself nearly choking on her drink in surprise as she heard the term "murdered". She gulped down her in drink and gasped in surprise. "Murdered? You were dead?" she asked. "How did that happen?" |
