Lady Jade sat behind the safety of her shield, on the asteroid she commanded towards the third planet in the Sol system
It was not long ago she arrived in the solar system, ad slowed dwon his "ride"
With a speed Humans only dared to dream about, she passed the outer Gas giants, passed Jupiter, navigated through the Asteroid Field and entered the inner regions
The green Gem watched Mars.... she was almost there
Then from the darkness, the litte blue planet emerged
Earth
Sol 3
Lady Jade's asteroid slowed down, obeying her will, then stopped in the shadow of the the Moon
The noble matron was cautious... Earth was far away from the Empire and she heard stories.
The Rose Quartz's transmission was disturbing, and the situation on Earth was basically unknown to her...
She had plans... and at the moment a "Rebel" ship would have been a nasty surprise
But she always had patience... so Jade waited and watched
The green Gem expected some Rebel ships... patrols, or anything
...but there was none
The absence of the Empire's ships was somewhat logical... this little Planet was never that important, mostly thanks to her efforts, and the eternal Gem politics...
But thanks to Rose Quartz she feared the situation might change
Jade watched the orbiting satelites... watched as the nights came and the lights of the little cities... then her "ride" started to move
It was time to arrive; Jade calculated, the asteroid would not hurt the planet and it would not cause a disaster
The small space rock entered the atmosphere... it was a bumpy ride
She tageted an uninhabited bay
The impact was an unpleasant experience (with a deafening rumble), but her shield protected her
In the middle of the smoking, smoldering crater Lady Jade stood up
