a redo of my murder of the moon fic!! super proud of this! should i put this on a of 3 one day? TW!!, death mentions, ghosts, shiping First:your here! Next:in the works Last: none The sky that was normally a beautifully pitch black with only the light of the stars shinning, was now lit, up to the nines, full of buildings in the way, and all of the neon lights from the signs, blocking the sky that Gem Taylor was so used to. she hadn't left the comfort of her village in a while, and she was already starting to miss, the sounds of waves hitting the rocks on the side of the light house she lived in, as she stood there looking outside of the hotel she was staying at, how did she even get here again.. she sighed as she knew exactly why she was there just a couple days ago, she was tending to the garden of roses in front of the lighthouse steps, she only went inside for a little bit to grab, some more stuff for the garden, When she heard, one of her dogs barking, and then the sound of the doorbell ringing, gem would put down the gloves she was grabbing, as she walked to the door checking threw the peep whole before opening the door, ¨ hello... is this where Gemini Taylor lives.?¨ Gem flinched a bit, as she would hear the voice, she recognized who it was right away Gem would open the door quickly, as she stared at the The person who was standing in front of her, The person had orange wavy, hair , and green eyes, they were also in a detective outfit Gem would realize, she was zoning out ¨ C Cleo-...?..w why are you here-, its nice to see you again.. but, why..? didn't tell me you were coming-, i mean we haven't talked since.."gem stopped, as Cleo would nod their head ¨its nice to see you to gem..,ive missed you..but i couldn't talk over the phone for this..we should go inside your house gem.. and sit down ¨ Gem would open the door more, shaking a bit ¨ o okay-..um Villie came inside!¨ The white dog would walk into the lighthouse, as gem would follow behind the dog, Cleo behind her Gem would show Cleo to the couches, the inside of the lighthouse, had photos around the walls, thank you notes, books, and much more all around it Gem would sit on a chair across from the couch as villie would jump into her lap, licking her face trying to ease her nerves, ¨ okay Cleo im ready...now whats wrong-..?¨ gem would pet villie as she talked ¨ gem..we need you to come back to the offi-¨ gem would blink as she interrupted Cleo ¨Cleo-, i thought i told you all to not tell me to come back...and even if i wanted to i cant.. Remember impulse suspended me..¨ gem went silent, why after years of not seeing them, why did Cleo have to try to bring her back there..Cleo knew why she couldn't, why was she here asking then she would pick up a teacup siping her tea ¨ Gem..impulse lifted your suspension..and before you still say no again. this case.. its connected to someone i think you know....its connected to someone named Pearl L moon.¨ gem dropped her cup, as it shattered to the ground gem started at Cleo, as the gem was shaking ¨ Pearl...L moon...? a are you sure...?¨ Cleo would nod their head, gem would go silent, as villie would whine a little bit rubbing his snout on gems cheek as she sat there, gems mind going all over the place *no no Cleo doesn't mean her, because the only reason why Cleo would be talking about her being connected to a case means that shes dead no she couldn't be pearl can't be dead, pearl has been taught, self-defense since she was young, she had them to,..* ¨Gem., dear, take a deep breath before you keep talking..il clean the glass up real quick to okay,¨ Cleo would smile lightly at the gem as they would look at villie ¨villie pup, could you bring me the dust pan, and broom¨ villie would jump off of gems lap, as he ran off grabbing, both the dust pan and broom to Cleo, as Cleo took the two items they lent down, petting the pup ¨good boy, vill¨ Cleo would clean the glass up and the tea that splatted as Gem sat there with her mind all over the place Gem would take a deep breath as Cleo finished up cleaning ¨Cleo..a are you sure...that pearls connected?¨ Cleo looked at gem as they nodded their head ¨were pretty sure...if you want i can show you the picture, of her note book..so you can make sure..?¨ gem would nod her head as Cleo opened up her phone, and found the picture of the notebook, gem, stopped moving the little bit of hope she had that it wasn't pearls was gone now, the notebook in the picture was red, and had the name pearl embroider on it, gem would think as she the looked at Cleo ¨wait..Cleo if you know..that pearls connected to me why do you guys need me?, i thought that detectives arent supposed to be on cases connected to them?¨ Cleo would nod their head,
Continued!!! BELOW ¨yes your right gem...normally we wouldn't go to you but we need your power..¨ gem stared at Cleo, as she would nod her head ¨so its that type of case..Cleo-..i haven't used my ability in a while, i was done using it-..¨ Cleo would sit next to gem holding gems hand, ¨gem its okay..this case will be the last time..¨ Cleo went silent, as they mumbled under their voice ¨id rather you not have to go back...but i have no choice¨ gem wouldn't hear Cleo talking, as she sat there thinking, as she took a deep breath *i dont want to go back..seeing everyone would be nice, but having to use my ability again..ill have to see all the horrors again..but pearl..i need to find out what happened* Gem looked at Cleo once more, ¨okay il go...¨ cleo nodded their head not wanting to say anything else, as they stood up ¨okay lets go to the car then, impulse wants to see you by tmr, and im guessing you will want a nap, and you can take villie¨ Cleo and gem, went to the car as Gem put villie into the backseat, as she got in the passenger seat, as the car started as they left the light house and just for a second gem thought she saw, a figure, until it was gone (to be continued!!)
