A Gem at Crystal Prep

by Shadow Hero


Prologue

I am your narrator of this story Moonstone. I have peach skin with short blond hair , my eye's are orange and I am wearing a black tank top with a star on the it and and navy blue jean's. My gem is well a Yellow Moonstone it's placed on my right shoulder, am also a  Home World gem turned Crystal Gem. Yep you heard me. But my story starts long before I attended Crystal Prep. It start's at a field full of giant strawberries, were I was  trying to fight back Home world's to save this planet, but one gem gave me trouble, a Jasper. As we were toe to toe, my katana and her clamor clash a bright light shines down from the sky. As I looked up I felt something touching me before passing out.

After some time I woke up on what looks like a beach somewhere, I decided to look around to see if I can find someone, but screaming caught my attention and I ran towards the sound

As I ran around a corner I saw two female people, both with pink skin, but the one that looked five had magenta hair with streaks of gold and rose, and the other one just had magenta hair with a single gold streak being attacked by a giant dog like creature with what looks to be gem for a nose.

Seeing this I rushed forward pulling my katana out of my gem blocking the creature's paw. "Run!" I yelled as I looked back I saw them do just that.

"Now then it's just you and me doggy." I said to it as I jumped over one of its paws as it swept at my feet. As I landed it charged at me knocking me back.

"So you want to play like that then." I said as we both charged at each other. As I got close I dodged to the left and slashed one of its legs off. It looked like it did not faze it at all because it just turns around and charged at me again. I took my stance and duck under the 'dog' and slashed it stomach.

As I landed on the other side as it puffed into its gem. "That's new." I said as I walked up to the gem and bubbled it, looking into the refection of the bubble I saw the two from before staring at me.

"Am not going to hurt you." I said putting my weapon away.

They slowly walked up. "Th-thank you." The woman said as she held the little girl tight.

"No problem." I said as I tried to send the gem back to the temple. "Ok that weird."

"Um mister what are you doing?" The little girl asked.

"Nothing.." I said shaking my head. "So where am I?"

"Manehattan beachfront. Are you lost?" The woman said.

"Never heard of it.." I said before closing me eyes to sense my surroundings, that is one of the things a Moonstone made on the moon's of Ugla prime can do. Pretty handy to scout locations to build 'Kindergartens'. Feeling nothing I shock my head.

"Is something wrong?" The little girl said

"Nothing big but" I said as I kneel down, which scared the women abit. "It seems am far from home."

"Maybe we can help. Can we Mommy?"

"I don't think so, it's too far." I said to her.

"Look if you need a place to stay.. Maybe you can stay with us for abit, till you get on your feet." the little girl’s mother said as she looked at me, proble thinking am homeless. Which I am, sort of.

"Sure, my name is Moonstone. Just call me Moon." I said as I stood up.

"Am Cadance and this is my mommy." The little girl said.

"Amor is fine with me." She said with a smile


15 years later

I was walking to the school that I have attended for the past three years now thanks to  Cadence.She said it should help me understand human's a bit better. Watching everyone walking the same way wearing the same thing as me, reddish-purple blazers. That made me a bit uncomfortable due to me gem being hidden.

"Good morning."Cadance said to me as I walked up to the stairs to the school, it look like it was something made by Home World.

"Good morning Dean." I said

"You don't have to call me that, how long do we known each other." She said as I just shrugged it off as walked past her.

I dodged the people in the hallway as I made my way to see a friend of mean before class, and see if she is still trying to get into that stupid program. She was been at it for as I can remember.

After nearly bumping into Fleur as I came up to a door at the end of a hall and knocked on the door. The only answer I got was barking from the other side of the door.

I took a step back as the door opened by a girl with light purple skin and moderate sapphire blue hair with a one violet and one bright rose streak wearing a lab coat over her uniform and she is wearing a skirt. “Oh Moon, it's nice to see you. How was your weekend?” She asked.

“It was ok, Twilight. Still at it?” I asked as I walked into the room, it had many science instruments all over.

"Of course. I can't take a break, I need to find the best project to insure that I get in to  Everten.” She said as she sat down in front of her computer.

“Look. I said this before, I will help the best I can. But try not to get your hopes too high.Ok.” I said to her right as the bell rang

“Why are people saying that. Am sure if I find something great it will be a guarantee entry.” She said as she collected her things for class.

“We just don't want you to be to sad if you don't get in.” I said as she proble rolled her eyes at me.

“Let's  just get to class.” She said as she walked passed me and waited too me to leave so she can lock the door.

"Fine. See you at lunch then.” I said as I rush to my first class of the day as it was on the other side of the school. Why they gave me a locker far away from home room is beyond me.
