That's it, then. There's no hope of saving Greg. And no point in holding back anymore.
Her grip tightens around Peridot's throat- and the stone compresses around her limbs. And then with one quick twist of her hand, she snaps Peridot's neck- her gemstone falling to the ground.
That's not enough, though. Not nearly enough for what she's done.
Rose raises her arms up, and lifts a boulder up into the air, one bigger than she is- and slams it down, crushing Peridot's gem. And then again. And again, and again, and again, screaming and crying all the while, shaking the earth. And by the time she's done, there's just a massive crater, and a tiny green smear in the center of it, Peridot's gem practically reduced to a fine powder. And now...
Now there's nothing. Nothing for Rose to take her emotions out on, nothing to distract her from the fact that the person she's loved more than anything else was suddenly, painfully ripped away from her.

Nothing to do now but just break down and cry.
