Purple Topaz and the Colony of Cerusa

This will be a story I will be writing. My first one! :3

Part 1: A (Not-so) Great Start
Purple Topaz was calm. very calm. In fact, one would be surprised that a gem could be calm when bestowed with such an Important task. Purple Topaz smoothed her hair as she thought to herself, " Calm down, this is probably just another easy one, like checking the Kindergarten. No, that's not my job. She stepped in front of the doors as two guard Quartz'  opened them. At the end of the hall, she saw Blue Diamond, patiently waiting for her. She composed herself as she walked down the great hall, followed by the eyes of the rest of Blue diamond's court. "Haters.", she thought. " Oh, well. half of them were too incompetent for this mission anyway." She had finally arrived to Blue Diamond's throne. "My Diamond". she stated, " I'm here." Blue Diamond's massive figure loomed over Purple Topaz. Blue Diamond spoke,

Blue Diamond: Purple Topaz, I have called you here for an important mission.

Purple Topaz: Yes, My Diamond, but why me?

Blue Diamond: You see, our Exploration team has done well, helping Homeworld expand it's territory beyond this star system. But just recently, there leader has been shattered after a failed mission to colonize a new planet.

Purple Topaz: And what does this have to me?

Blue Diamond; We have just gained word of a new planet, Cerusa. The exploration team has told u it does have resources for gem production. but that was all, we could get, since they died shortly after that. Now, the exploration team needs a new leader. You'd be perfect.

Purple Topaz:(unimpressed) Mmmmhmmm. What's in it for me?

Blue Diamond: Well, I don't know if helping Homeworld colonize another planet is enough for you.

Purple Topaz; Well, since I haven't anything better to do, fine.

Blue Diamond: Good. Your ship and team will be waiting for you outside.

Purple Topaz bowed to Blue Diamond and left the hall. A Tourmaline who was part of the court, walked up to her.

Tourmaline: Why in the name of the stars above would she pick the likes of you? Last time you were assigned a mission, you sat on the ship and "supervised".

Purple Topaz merely turned and said,

Purple Topaz: Because I was available. And I wasn't the one who almost misplaced the Diamond communicator when we were on the Moon.

Tourmaline:(sweats)

Purple Topaz:(cocky) Now, if you'll excuse me, i have a ship to get to. And by the way, fix your ribbon. It's on the wrong way.(smiles)

Purple Topaz left they courtroom, and her pearl was waiting there.

Purple Pearl: How did It go, master.

Purple Topaz: If not for the occasional idiot bluntly insulting me, I'd say it went all right.

Purple Topaz and her pearl walked out to the ship, where Purple Topaz gasped in horror.

Purple Pearl: (confused) what is the matter, master?

Purple Topaz: She gave me a band of misfits!

Sure enough, on the deck of the ship, she had a jasper, an amethyst, A Jet, an Andesine and a Rubelite waiting.

Rubelite: Oh! miss High and Mighty decided to finally show up!

Andesine: You shouldn't be so rude.

Rubelite: Excuse me, but did I ask you to speak?

Andesine:(bluntly) You were talking to the air as if you were crazy.

The two glared at each other.

Purple Topaz: Everyone get on the ship!!!!

The gems boarded the ship, as the jet began to close the door. Purple Topaz rubbed her head in frustration.

Purple Pearl: Will you be ok, master?

Purple Topaz: As long as I don't get my hair or clothes dirty, I should be perfectly fine.

She glances at the team as the ship takes off.

Purple Topaz: Maybe.
