Ghost spinel, like any other of her type, was an entertainer. Once upon a time, she was assigned to boost the moral of some quartz soldiers and a few high ranked gems within a sector.

All was going well. The crowd ate her up, not once did Ghosts jokes fall flat, she even got attending agate to chuckle at her antics ! Given Ghosts main audience was the soldiers of the sector, lets call it LX7-1; she stuck mostly to impressions, shapeshifting, and poking fun at a few pearls.

As the audience roared in laughter, her jokes grew to the point of teasing at upper class gems. For most of the act, no issues came up - until a visiting Pyrope took offense.

The gem huffed over the smaller cut, telling her to mind her place. The rest of the high class gems didn't feel the outburst to be necessary, Pyropes happen to be snooty and father uptight to begin with; they made no motion to defend or back her up.

Ghost of course kept going with her usual stunts. She picked at the Pyropes skirt, stretching tall enough to look down on her, even commented on how pretty she would be as a pearl. Quartz soldiers screeched in delight, sapphires giggled under they're breath, and other gems who came for the show were estatic !

However this did not last, Ghost somehow went too far.

Whatever she did to rise the audience to anger wasnt clear, and was hardly explained.

"You just insulted an upper crust !" Yelled a gem in the back.

"How dare she ?!" Yelped another.

"Doesn't that spinel know any better ?" Howled someone else.

Before Ghost even knew it, she was being bleached. Her pigment sizzled to the tones of black and white, she could feel it within her gem.

Then she'd poof.

This continued over and over again, every time she reformed, they'd inject more chemicals; the pain was staggering.

The damage was already doen once Pink Quartz and other rebel gems came to her aid, they were too late.

Her jovial an sassy attitude was signed away, her pigment was completely altered.

That was the day Ghost spinel came to be.
