[NOW OPEN] Assassination!
Warnings: Death and blood and violence
Location: The park
Characters: Peridot, Rose Quartz, and Greg Universe
When: Three days after Peridot gets Shadowed.
Summary: A romantic evening walk is interrupted by a violent stalker and it all goes to hell from there.
Peridot had waited long enough. Three days of avoiding the sun, of practicing until she collapsed on the spot, of seething in an anger that was acute even for her with the whispers in her head egging her on, she managed one. A jagged shadow, long and thin and sharp, jutting up out of the concrete. She did it. She made one.
Eventually, she could make a few more. Eventually, she could throw them.
All she needed was one perfect shot, right through the gem. It would be easy enough to get close if Rose was hunting her. If her encounter with her in the shops was any indication, she'd believe anything. Any story would do. Of course it would. The whispers had stopped arguing with her about this. Just this one thing. If she got to do this one thing, then she pay attention to what they wanted.
Helicopter fingers fluttering, she scanned the city for Rose until finally she found her in the park with her pet human. The sun was setting, the shadows would get stronger and stronger in the waning daylight...perfect. She taxied down to the ground behind the couple.
“Well, well, well...Isn't it getting a little late?”

She'll be fine on her own, after all. Even though the other Gems aren't here, it won't be all that different. She's lived apart from humanity for a very long time, until she met Greg. There's no reason she can't just go back to that, and keep people from getting close to her and getting themselves hurt like this.

Shit.
He needs to tell Casey. And Wash. Jesus christ.
