User blog:DoomyBoy/Jet's Origin Part 1: The road to liberation

Homeworld, 3000 years ago
"Ruby facet 3455, returning, Ruby facet 3456, returning, Ruby facet 2457...shattered."

Jet 2147 stood in line with his 30 brothers. This was their first assignment after being formed, and it was apparently important enough for them to be inspected by a Saphire. He had heard a rumor that they were going to be building a kindergarten on Earth. Nothing too unusual for a jet, they should...

The Saphire stopped at Jet 2130 "Jets 2130-2160...none return" and then she kept on walking. 2147 was shocked. None return...not even one? He wanted to force that Saphire to be more specific. He wanted to demand she tell him if they would die or just never leave earth...but that would only get him killed. He and his brothers were Jets...the thirty of them were worth nothing compared to her, or even her pearl. It...it didn't matter, he was nothing more than a means to an end, all he would do when he got to earth was get to work and wait to get killed. A sideways glance to his brothers revealed they had come to the same conclusion.

Earth, 3 months later
"However we get shattered..." Said 2135 to 2147, "I hope it happens soon." 2147 nodded as he dug another chamber "Anything beats an eternity of doing this kind of work."

"Hey, 2147, 2135?" said 2158 as he walked over "I know we aren't supposed to talk to Agate without permission, but should we still report the Pearl whose watching us over the fence?"

2147 grabbed 2158's ear "Are you insane? If she's with homeworld Agate would shatter us! Now shut up and get back to work.
