A gem ship launched from a distant homeworld colony, carrying two passengers. They tried their best to leave the colony as fast as they could, but they were fired at and their ship was damaged. They drifted through space...
...the gem ship fragmented i, the atmosphere, sending chuncks across the ground. One of them landed in the middle of the funland boardwalk, the rest scattered over the surrounding area.

Mercy was walking along Funlands boardwalk, watching Steven, Amethyst and Peridot enjoying themselves. Sol was walking beside her, chuckling at their antics.
"They're so adorabl- MERCY WATCH IT!!" Sol shoved her out of the way as a ship fragment pulverized into the boardwalk, right where Mercy had been. Other fragments started to land near by.
Mercy ran over to the three, Sol behind. "Guys! Come on!" They all got underneath the awning of a snack shack as they watched the fragments fall.

The main fragment was smoking and spouting violet flames. A gem was frantically prying away rubble, and kept from the cockpit before it exploded. She looked around from behind her mask, searching for the rest of the ship.

Mercy saw something purple emerge from the large ship fragment...
"Oh my god, someones in there and they're stuck!" She ran out towards it, Sol and the others yelling after her to come back.
She ignored them as she pushed the remaining rubble out of the persons way. "Are you alright?!" She reached out and pulled the...the Gem out of harms way.

She regained her composure before backing up and taking a defensive stance. She drew her rapier, but her attention was taken by a fragment of her craft, which she leapt at and severed down the middle, causing it to explode.

Mercy tensed up as the unknown Gem went defensive. "Easy, Easy, its oka-AHH!" She flew back as the fragment exploded, landing on her ass and rolling.
She got up shakily. "Ow.." She turned back to the Gem. "Hey! Just calm down, are you alright?"

She ran around, looking through ruined areas of her vessel. She was frantic. "No, come on, you have to be in one of these..." She threw her sword into the wooden planks, thinking for a second.

Mercy saw her scrambling around the wreckage, frantically searching for something as she muttered to herself. She threw her sword to the ground as Mercy came up and started lifting the fragments.
"Let me help you, what are you looking for?" She tossed ship pieces away with an effort as she tried to talk to the Gem.

Mercy threw a couple more fragments away. Then she came over to the Gem and knelt in front of her, speaking gently and motherly.
"Its going to be okay, We'll find your Calicite, I promise. Can you tell me your name?"

Mercy smiled gently. "Thats a lovely name, Cassiterite. My name is Mercy." She held out her hand. "Its nice to meet you, given the circumstances."
She stood up, still holding out her hand. "Here, let me help you up."

She looked up at her, slowly reaching out and taking her hand. "Mercy... Thank you..."

Mercy smiled and helped her up gently. "Not at all." She looked at the wreckage of the ship worriedly. "I don't think shes there, but if you want, I can keep looking for you."
She went over and lifted more fragments, too heavy for normal humans to mess with, although she was a Hybrid, she still had to move them with an effort.
"Cassiterite, could you look around for her while I lift these pieces?"

"I... Thank you, but I'm not sure if flipping wreckage will solve anything... None of these are big enough for her to be in. I'm going to search for larger prices..." she turned and started walking off towards the rest of town.
