The Dragon Gem

Casper

Was he my brother? Well, from all the sings I've seen I think he is! I need to be sure.

"Garnet! Emily! TJ! I need to talk to you , NOW!" I yelled

This could not wait.

"what is it?" said TJ in a very blank and robotic voice.

"guys wake up already! I think I found our brother, Garnet you do you remember when me and you are walking to Starbucks and we talked about our loss siblings?" I asked desperately

"Yes I do. But why would I care?" said Garnet

It looks like my whole family has been turned into zombies! I had no idea what to do. It just made me so sad, to see them so lifeless and soulless.

Wait, Soulless.

I remember the day that I learned that Toby was a rebel. The stuff that he sprinkled on the ground it had an effect on humans. To make them feel emotionless, or Soulless.

This is probably the rebels doing! I don't know why but I was still in tears. I had no idea what to do about the whole situation itself. How did somebody do this!?!? I think by this time I was crying my eyes out.

Emily patted me on the head as I was on my knees. What am I a dog now?!?

I decide to go back to the beach so I could see Caspar, I know it would be a little weird because he tried to flirt with me last time I talked to him. But I had to give it a shot. I needed to know more about him.

>>>>><<<<<

I finally made it to the boardwalk and I see Caspar eating ice cream all. alone.

I walked up to him and took a seat.

"okay look just don't hurt me!! I'm sorry I complimented you!" Caspar shrieked out

"Why would you think that I'd want to hurt you?" I said a little confused

" I wouldn't hurt you. I just want to get to know you dude, that's it. You seem pretty cool." I said nodding

He seemed pretty cool from what I saw. He was actually confident enough to walk over to a complete stranger and say they looked nice. But, the weird thing is, if i'm right, the way I met my brother was that he started flirting with me on the beach in Hawaii...

Wow, this is all so confusing. Do I just ask him? I don't know what to do. I have lost my grip on the situation, and I think how hopeless this was in the first place

By this time once again I was crying. Caspar sat next to me and said, "look I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you feel bad or anything. But.....,"

that's it! I had to tell him. I didn't know if it was true or not but from what happened I think it is.

This is so risky and I don't know if my family will hate me for this. But maybe he can help, maybe he can help my family not be zombies! This could be a beacon of hope for me!!! I needed to tell him now!!!!!

" So, I know we don't really know each other. So tell me 'bout yourself. " I said looking into his dark brown chocolatey eyes ( its like looking into a mirror from an alternate dimension)

" Well, I guess I want to know more about you also. you seemed so mysterious when I first saw you. So I walked over you to say hi, and I'm not that good at saying hi to a stranger. So I complimented you." Caspar said turning a little red

"Well, for starters. My name is Sapphire, Sapphire Jewel." I said smiling

" My name is Caspar. I never had a last name, which is a little sad. I was born, but I was left by my family. I grew up in an orphanage, until i started to get bullied. Then i ran away to live in an alley way. Until some people found me, they took me through some sorta for portal." said Caspar.

He just looked like he got 5 tons off of his shoulders.

" A portal?" I asked curious

" Ya, they call it the Realm. But to me it just looked like a white world, filled with nothing more than air to breath. " said Caspar

I thought for a while and looked for some clues to see if I should tell him. Well, for one he talked about the realm, and that he seemed to have a dragon. before I realized it, he began to speak again.

" A person named Pyrite raised me. and as I kept going in and out of the Realm, I saw more and more things appear, day by day. The first day if school, was terrible!" Caspar said angrily

" I was a joke to the class! I was bullied the first day...." he said never finishing his sentence

" I'm sorry I didn't mean to talk this long....... I just have a ruff past." He looked into my eyes and I stared into his eyes

I could feel the pain he was feeling, and it seemed that he has been holding that in for a long time. I really did know his pain. School was no where near just a walk in the park for me.

" Don't worry, I understand completely." I said with sympathy

" I didn't mean to tell you that much about me. I mean I barley know you, but yet I feel I'm able to trust you. You know, I get that feeling like you'll listen and actually open up to me" Caspar said turning toward me

" Ya! I totally get what your saying Caspar, so since you said that could you please answer me one thing" I didn't know how to ask at all if you couldn't tell...

" What is that thing on your arm?" I asked

" Oh, this. I don't know, but depending any emotions, it changes color. but mostly its color is yellow. I'm pretty sure its not a tattoo. What is that on your arm?" he asked

" This is my Dragon Symbol. I represent The Sapphire Gem, and I basically have powers of electricity. and before you say I'm crazy, check this out." I said

I stuck out my hand in front of him and showed him my spark.

He just sat there in his chair, with his wide mouth open.

" Wow, a little unexpected. but I could do this. "

He waved his hands in the air and a rainbow appeared. Is that suppose o be a power of natural destruction...

" I don't know if I have a power, but I could do that." he said smiling

Wow, its so beautiful. I'm really speechless!

I have never seen a really rainbow, but this was better.

I told him about all of the Dragon Gem stuff and that we had 2 lost brothers.

" So your my,......... Sister?" he said trying to take it all in

" Yup." I said popping the "p"

He looked at me and I'm pretty sure he could see our resemblance. He jumped out of his chair and bear hugged me.

I found my brother

>>>>><<<<<<

Of course, now knowing that we are related I asked my family if he could live with us.

And the said yes, yet again with their same boring monotone.

Me and Caspar talked basically until 1 am.

" Night Sis" he said before shutting my door

" Night bro." I said

I was so happy I found him, and only by mere luck. I wish everything could stay like this, just happy.
