章 25: Introductions and character
"I really,,, should have given you a handicap without Onyx 7 and Schorl 9."
I then proceeded to forcibly manipulate the constructed chain out of the shadow binding and slapped the spinning sword away. This is anti-climatic isn't it?
Wow! The look of despair, exhaustion, and disappointment on the female Schorl's face when a I slapped her sword away was disheartening. I could feel the self blame the twin Schorl's feel for failing at their task and for failing the female.
There was a slight pause before I threw a spear straight into the chest of the female Schorl and she created a loud poof as I threw a pair of swords into the twins causing both of them to poof simultaneously. As I heard the gems clatter to the ground I began to cancel my constructs and black particles like dust began rising in the air as my weapons, walls, and other objects began dissipating.
"Okay Head! You guys can come down now!" I yelled at the pebbles to come down as I walked forward and used my telekinesis to lift the gemstones off the ground.
My pretty little pet project shimmered behind me as Head gave me the conformational tapping sound to inform me that the Pebbles are ready. I then called for my usual chair and layed down and put my right hand to my chin and held the three six inch schorl gems in my hand with the black pebble like onyx gem with them. I proceeded to bubble them and sent them off to their respective quarters. They'll pop in thirty minutes.
This was a neat little trick I learned based on the Gem Archives notes on a Gem's ability to bubble objects and transfer it across a specified space. Based on the show, Gems would send the objects they bubbled to places they recognize as home, and since I view anything I own as mine I can bubble anything to anywhere on Homeworld. It's more subconscious than anything so I just had to change my perspective.
I then began to speak to the invisible entity behind me.
"So then, I finished making you around a week ago so I should give you a name huh?"
I brought it out of its invisibility mode and a machine with an appearance to the Project Bunny 19C with a colour scheme of black plates instead of white, outlined in blood red metal, and gold glowing eyes. What separates it from the young kuudere's weapon is the addition of four arms that hover just behind the back of the machine.
I made this as an assistant to help me along with my day to day tasks in information gathering, managing the troops, and combat with the help of an AI. Now for the big question, Black how do you know that your own AI won't betray you? Easy, I did a shitty move when I created her.
"Are you okay? Did you overexert yourself? Do you need medical attention?!?" She asked in a feminine robotic voice, did she watch my fight? The entire goal was for them to touch me! I was holding back, apparently not enough so, and any advantages such as terrain, platforms, and training I gave them.
This does make sense since I made myself the centre of her existence and her interests are the improvement of myself and my goals. She exists to serve me… does this make me a shitty person? Is something alive if it has a soul or is it alive if it has a consciousness?
I'll just… keep moving forward.
"I'm fine and I actually just thought of a name for you." I offered a playful smile as my little child spoke in an excited stuttering voice.
"R-r-really!?! Wh-wh-wh-what is it?"
"From this day onwards I will give you the name..."
ONYX FACET-7KL CUT-4BG (ONYX 7) P.O.V
"Sooo that was Pink Diamond huh?" I began to strike up a conversation with Schorl (9) as we walked to the training/analysis centre that my Diamond had set up. Aaaahhhh she is so amazing!!! She is so intelligent, she created and advanced Homeworld technology by so much and the techniques she circulated brought huge benefits for us.
Of course she gave martial arts and other kinds of techniques to the rest of the Diamonds, but I and six figured out that we had more variety. She plays favorites and I'm pretty sure I'm one of the Gems that are winning! Her strength is insurmountable, the last few months of training has proven that.
Schorl then brought me out of my inner dialogue.
"Yep, that was her. I really didn't know what I could expect from the other Diamonds, but with Pink Diamond she seems so much similar to our Diamond but... "
"But?" I questioned.
"More approachable? I'm not saying that our Diamond is scary or distant, you met her and you know that's not the case. However, Pink Diamond… has this air around her that puts Gems at ease in her unique, fluffy way."
I put my hands behind my back as I began to slowly skip ahead of Schorl and kept pace a step ahead of him. I then answered in a playful tone.
"Don't you have a way with words." *Clears throat* " 'My Diamond, your presence as always brings radiance into whatever room you're in.' Hahahaha!"
Schorl looks irritated as he begins to speak.
"I fail to understand your point Onyx, I am merely giving the respect to the Diamond authority as we should as their lessers."
"But did you have to be so..." I spun my hand in the air "Cliche?" Schorl in response just rolled his eyes as I continued the conversation.
"Well anyway, you're right she seems much more social than any of the other Diamonds I heard about and she seems just as capable, so I would say she is the second best Diamond for company. First being Black Diamond obviously."
"Obviously." He agreed.
We continued our conversation/banter until we arrived at the training centre with multiple rooms dedicated to multiple training simulations and Requirements. We found out Black Diamond's Pearl's location from the jade at the desk. We walked into the room and went near the Pearl who is currently doing target practice with a pair of black and silver guns created by Black Diamond.
They have a length of 39cm (16 in), looks like it has a weight of 16kg (35lbs), and a black gunmetal construction, and uses massive 13mm explosive rounds that can be refilled directly from the gem to the gun.
Its unique design makes it seem as if it doesn't have a pistol slide; however, the entire upper assembly is the slide, and moves only a minimal distance compared to other primitive guns', making it appear as if there is no pistol slide. The Jackal has its silver ejector port on the left side.
I'm jealous, we direct combat units, do not have access to such weaponry and yet a Pearl does! I'm sure my Diamond has a valid reason for this but I'm still upset that a Pearl has such a weapon for combat. The worst part is she is getting good at it.
She learned combat techniques and spent the last few months in training to get to the point where she can fight newly made Jaspers. Those guys would be good brutes so needless to say she can fight common fodder up to a point.
She paused from her practice in order to greet at us with her uniform clean and unblemished from the hard practice she does for hours everyday allotted by our Diamond.
"Schorl 9 and Onyx 7, what brings you here?"
Schorl answered this time.
"Black Diamond sent us in order to help with your training."
"I see, thank you so shall we start where we left off then?" Pearl answered with a smile.
"Yes I instruct you on foot work" With that he then walked to position a few meters away from Pearl..
I walked to the side and leaned against the wall with my arms crossed as Pearl began to speak.
"So anything of interest happened while I was away?"
"Yes actually.." Schorl brought her up to speed and Pearl had a thoughtful look on her face as she replied.
"So Pink Diamond visited today, what do you think of her?"
Schorl put his hand behind his back as he replied.
"She seemed amazing and flawless as all Diamonds are, but I would much prefer my Diamond. While Pink Diamond seems to have this air of acceptance and inclusion I would say our Diamond is much more distinct in her presence."
I joined in on this.
"Yes, because of how she is so..."
Pearl: "Beautiful"
Schorl: "Intelligent"
Me: "Commanding"
???: "Sexy"
Who!?!?!?!
