The Perfect Union

*Amethyst is shocked*

Amethyst: Rena that wasn't...

Rena: Leave me alone.

Amethyst: "..." *her thoughts receeding away while rena was left with amethyst using her body for the time being.*

*Amethyst ponders this*

Amethyst (thought): The way PP spoke to me, manipulated me...I need to speak to Sal!

Amethyst: "Is...sal okay?"

*Rote sighs*

Rote: She's badly shaken up. But if you make the effort you can still get through to her.

Amethyst: "thank you.." *trying to shuffle her weight along to see Sal.*

*Sal is in tears, eating from a packet of cookie dough*

Amethyst: "...Sal?" *she speaks.*

*Sal doesn't look at her*

Sal: Leave me alone.

Amethyst: "...I can't...not while You're the only one who knows how to handle PP..."

*Sal laughs bitterly*

Sal: Thanks...I needed a good laugh!

Amethyst: "Sal LOOK at me..."

*Sal looks up in horror*

Sal: Oh crap you are actually serious.

Amethyst: "..." *she hangs her head.* "yeah... to think 'my mother' did this to her own ooze and circuits..."

*Sal then realises*

Sal: She...she's like my mother.

Amethyst: You need to help me.

Sal: I'm no help to you. I was her prisoner.

Amethyst: "...and so was rena... and so was I. You don't think we don't feel the same way?"

*Sal sighs*

Sal: For years she made me feel worthless. Like without her I had no powers.
      
*Amethyst looks sympathetically at her*

Amethyst: And she did that to me. But you got over it.

Amethyst: "wouldn't that mean that I would be you in this scenario with PP being the same as your mother? ... I need to get over mine..."

*Sal ponders this*

Sal: I...I guess so. Though in all honesty I...I kind of ran away from my Mum...

Amethyst: "...I was thrown away from mine in a sense. You at least had a choice of leaving your mother ... i didn't."

*As Sal looks at her Amethyst her form starts to resemble her more*

Amethyst: "I just wanted to feel like I mattered. Not for my mother, but for me... yet she'll just beat me down again until I do what she says. She can do anything she wants with me but... she won't stop until I comply and turn out the same as her. I don't want that."

*As Amethyst speaks she suddenly realises*

Sal (thought): This...this is me...

Sal: You have to stand up to her.

Amethyst: "...I tried...I fought her..threw my powers at her ... took whatever she could ... I even tried to hold back on her making me hurt rena..."

Rena (thoughts): "...."

Amethyst: "...now rena won't even talk to me and i'm stuck with her body and a feeling of guilt with this being all my fault I couldn't stop PP and Sebiv..."

*Sal looks at her*

Sal: Fuse with me.

Amethyst: Are you serious?

Sal: I've destroyed Platinum before. I can do it again.

Amethyst: But what about Sebiv?

Sal: We've got someone else who can deal with her.
