POV: DoubleLife!Pearl

The group walked out of the cavern, and the winged Grian they'd come out of the rift to see. Pearl still hated this. Suddenly there was another her as well, who also had wings out of the blue? It all felt too... convenient. Just like the Enderman was too convenient.

She tightened her fists as the winged Grian began to speak.

"Okay, hello everyone. First, we need to set names. I'm Grian, and this is Pearl, but we also have Grian, and Pearl, from different universes." The winged Grian pointed to the Grian who seemed one step away from a mental breakdown at all times... Pearl smiled. She could easily kill him... He didn't have a shield up, and looked like he'd fall apart at the first sign of violence...

She mentally cursed. She'd thought the instincts would disappear when she won the game, as their violent urges were from her red life status... But they still were clawing at her brain. The whispers were gone, but the instincts still wanted her to plunge the axe into someone's skull. She wouldn't, as that wouldn't be diplomatic, and she was trying to listen.

But she still imagined the feeling of the flesh parting beneath her blade, and couldn't help but grin. The scent of blood, the crimson liquid dripping out of Bdubs and Cleo's corpse... Revenge at its finest...

"Uh- Alternate Pearl? Earth to alternate Pearl-" The winged Grian called.

"She's just as bad as you when it comes to spacing out-" The other Pearl chuckled.

The winged Grian sighed."Oh shut- Okay, we have people's attention again. Alternate Grian, Alternate Pearl, do you have any nickname ideas?"

She didn't like the fact they were forcing her to get a nickname, like they were better than her... And she especially hated the term 'Alternate Pearl', as if she were an inferior clone...

"Pearl, Calm." Jade barked quietly. "I know you're mad about everything that's been going on, but you're making friends again. Please think about it."

"I don't need friends..." She muttered to Jade. "They'll just backstab me. Again. That's all friends are good for. Betrayal."

"... Okay then-" The winged Grian's eyes widened. "Well, other Grian, do you have any nickname ideas?"

"... It just came to me, but Xelqua?" The other Grian spoke quietly, tilting his head.

The winged Grian stiffed, freezing.

The alternate Pearl flinched, glancing at the frozen form of her friend, before replying quietly. "Er- How about something else..."

The other Grian glanced down, looking ashamed, before replying. "... I'm sorry... I'll go by... Sun... I guess?"

The alternate Pearl sighed. "No no it's not your fault... It's... Just... Nothing. Nothing at all. And that should work. " The alternate Pearl turned to the other pearl in the area. "So, other me, do you have anything we can call you?"

She glared at them.

"You can be Scarlet! Like what we used to call you!" Orchid barked energetically.

"That would work..." She mumbled. "Good idea Orchid, but I still don't like this. I still don't trust them, especially not Scott."

"Think of it from their point of view. We all appeared randomly." Jade barked quietly. "They clearly think we're the alternates, while we see it the other way around."

"I don't even think that weakling is my alternate self." She whispered, looking up at the other Pearl.

The other Pearl tilted her head. "Well, if your done talking to yourself-"
