*phone buzzes*

Celestial: What now....Dad?

[silversims]

Peridot: Celestial! Oh, Watcher, Cel--

Celestial: No--no, leave me--

Peridot: Cel it's me! It's Peri!

[silversims]

Celestial: I'll be dead before I ever listen to you again!

Obscuro: That can be arranged!

[silversims]

In another world...

Celestial: We're out of time! You two keep going! I'll stall them here!

Peridot: What--no!

Edelweiss: Peridot!

[silversims]

Celestial: ...okay, yeah, no, this isn't working. But where can we get swords on such short notice?

Fern: Uncle Mantis left a cache from when I was your age. we'll need the shovel and a map.

[silversims]

Celestial: Come on! Where are you guys...

Citrine: Could Vita or Morte have...

Fern: Maybe? Caly and Papa Cal are still in the Realm so it's not them...

[silversims]

Citrine: I really don't like this. Even when we were fighting she'd at least text she was safe...

Fern: It's not like Peri to be this quiet...are the others answering?

Cel: No! No one's answering. I'm getting left on unread on everything!

[silversims]

*thud*

Obscuro: Fool girl. No Light can vanquish the Dark. They will always be parts of one another.

[silversims]

Obscuro: Fighting me only delays the inevitable. Spare yourself the pain and make this easy. I take no pleasure in needless suffering, girl.

[silversims]

Peridot: No--erk--

Obscuro: I have waited lifetimes for this moment...you shall not defeat me again...

[silversims]

Peridot: I don't know if we can even slow him down, forget stop him. And undoing it--

*rasping sound*

Peridot: Who's there?

[silversims]

Peridot: …Lady Lucera I don't know if you can hear me…but, please. Help us through this. Help us to undo the damage the Shade has wrought. …sigh who'm I kidding…

[silversims]

Peridot: ….place feels…different now. Edie I'm here! sigh Great…where is she?

[silversims]

Celestial: Out of everything I've seen and done, everything? The thing I'm most scared of is losing you!

[silversims]

Celestial: One year and a day...*sigh* I can't wait.

Peridot: Mm. It'll be perfect.

[silversims]

Celestial: No, I want to. I really, really want to. I love Mom, but...Watcher, leaving all this mess behind...that'd be perfect.

Peridot: Then...it's a deal. As soon as we're old enough. That's just a year away now.
