“Creator!” The door opened and a voice called for me.

I turned around from where I was standing on my balcony. Beau Sancy ran up to me, smiling widely. I couldn’t help but smile too. “What is it, dear?”

“Come to the throne room! The moissanites have a surprise for us.” Beau Sancy grabbed my hand and started to drag me over to the door.

I giggled. “Okay okay. I’m coming.”

I followed her out of my room. Beau Sancy turned out to be a very happy gem. She had a lot of energy and was eager to learn how to be a leader. I left the moissanites to teach her since they had been more involved with running the court then I was. They knew more then me at this point.

Beau Sancy let go of my hand and ran into the throne room. I walked in after her. Pink Moissanite stood on the other end of the room, next to the throne. She held two bubbles in her hands, a round gem in each. I couldn’t tell what gem it was, even after getting closer.

Moissanite giggled as Beau Sancy bounced. It was an odd sight. Beau Sancy was a few heads taller than Moissanite. It was amusing to watch.

“I got Creator now tell me what’s in the bubble!” Beau Sancy pleaded.

Moissanite smiled then looked at me. “The kindergarten gems have made a new gem type. They are meant to be an assistant of sorts. Very obedient and will do everything you say. They can also be used for entertainment, singing and dancing. Or, I guess they could just stand to the side and look pretty. Either way, they won’t complain.”

I stared at her. A gem with no free will? Why would they make a gem like that? Things had really changed since I first formed. “Oh? What are they called?” I asked

“Pearls. Here is your’s.” Moissanite handed me a bubble.

I took it and popped it. A pale pink gem landed in my hand. It was so small and round. Moissanite handed the other bubble to Beau Sancy, who popped it immediately. She had received a light grey one.

“I thought you would like some help and company for when you leave to start over.” Moissanite said softly to me.

I smiled. “Thank you, Moissanite dear.”

Leaving was still something I planned on doing and time was growing near. Beau Sancy was almost ready to take over. She had been working hard over the past few decades. She would soon take over and I would leave to start over.

I left the throne room, holding the small pink pearl in my hands. Company would be nice and the help would be appreciated. Perhaps this gem would still have a mind of their own. Last thing I wanted was to be controlling.

Once inside my room, I set the gem down on a cushion and sat nearby. I knew it could be awhile until they formed. I loved watching new gems form for the first time. It was beautiful.

It wasn’t long until the small gem glowed and lifted into the air. A petite body of light formed around the gem. Tall and skinny. Details formed. Short hair and outfit that resembled mine, only that there was no poofy skirt. The long skirt went to her knees and the smaller skirt on top was sheer, along with the ruffles on the shirt. She shared the same gem placement as me.

The glowing stopped and she landed on the floor. She turned to me and put her arms up, making a diamond shape, saluting me. “Greetings, My Diamond. I am your pearl.”

I smiled. “I’m Creator Diamond. You can just call me Creator and no need to salute. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”

She slowly put her arms down. “Yes, My Creator.”

I giggled. “Just Creator.”

“Creator?”

I nodded and she smiled.
