The Earth was a quiet place, nothing but trash piles among trash piles for miles and miles. All you could hear were the faint noise of trash blowing in the wind and your steps upon the harsh and dry dirt floor. No animals could be heard, not even the sound of the earthworms digging through the rich soil through the intense quite.
The air was dry and usually contained tiny dirt particles within it. Though every time you take in a whiff of the Earth air dirt comes in as well, invading your unsuspecting nostrils.
Nothing was left on Earth, nothing other than towers and towers of neatly stacked trash along side the left over old broken down structures that could fall at any second. They were left by the once Earth ruling race, the Gems.
Gems are human like creatures. Though they have distinct colors that match with the color scheme of their gem. Most gems are created by being grown within the once beautiful and rich earth ground. Some were created by love but sadly, the parents never usually survive.
All gems come with their own personal gem. Their gem can appear anywhere on their bodies from when they are born. The most common places for a gem is on the forehead,chest,legs and back. There is only a few known to have gems on their hand.
The gem race that once ruled the trash ridden planet fled leaving behind everything and taking nothing with them other then a extremely large ship large enough to house thousands upon thousands of gems and materials to create more technology to enhance their race. They left behind trash piles among trash piles and rusty old thousand year old buildings that once peacefully housed gems.
Almost all of them look as if they could fall at any given second and collapse onto the dirt floor. As if the breath of a butterfly could make the buildings fall to the ground. Yea, they are that fragile and old.
Though not every gem left earth for a cleaner planet. There was one in particular that was forced to stay behind to help clean up Earth and survive, she wasn't the only one to be forced to stay behind but sadly...she was the only one strong enough to survive the thousands of years being left behind by her own race. Though she was quite different, in fact she is the only one left of her kind that has stayed alive ever since the gem race left.
She is a Rub-E; A small red gem with a large square like afro. She was quite muscular in her upper and lower body which is why she is so strong. She always wears circular goggles on her forehead for protection from the constant sand storms.
She is the only Rub-E in existence thanks to harsh conditions on earth and the constant work that has been thrown at them. Cleaning up a whole earth is extremely hard even for hundreds of them. She has managed to survive, she is strong and that is why she has made it so far, though now all that's left from all the others are scattered shattered pieces of their leftover gems. Scattered pieces could be spotted almost everywhere you step but she pays no mind. She pays attention to her job at exploring and cleaning up the Earth.
