“Brother, come inside!”
He didn’t answer, so Sapphire climbed toward him, wincing as a tiny rock struck him and drew blood.
“The meteor shower’s already starting,” he warned as a slightly larger rock hit close enough he could feel it go by.
“I’ll be in soon,” Diamond finally answered him.
“It’s dangerous.”
“Then go inside.”
“What are you doing?”
“Nothing. Don’t be annoying,” the young prince told his brother.
“Sorry.”
After a while he said, “I’ve heard that on Earth there’s water that falls from the sky.”
Sapphire thought of someone throwing a bucket of water into the air and letting it fall down. “Why would anyone do that?”
“The planet does it. Like hitting an asteroid field for a meteor shower. They must have clouds of water in their orbit.”
“Oh. Isn’t water soft?”
Diamond turned around and looked at him for the first time. “You’re bleeding.”
“It’s nothing,” he said, even as a new slash formed on his cheek. “My wards as weak. I’m not.”
“I’m going in now. Come on.”
Blue Sapphire scowled that his brother thought so little of his toughness. “Did you not want to go to the cavern party?”
Diamond sighed. “I was scarce going to avoid it until the meteor shower lets up.”
“Cousin Emerald wants to dance with you.”
He sighed again. “Yes, I know, brother. Maybe I’ll spend the night with Yellow Citrine, she’s empty-headed enough not to be involved in the plotting. You stay with Cousin Topaz and far away from Green Emerald.”
