Steven rushed towards the beach house, eager to introduce one of his three guardians-Pearl-to Centipeedle, his new friend, who was following him. He opened the door and jogged over to her.
"Pearl, Pearl, Pearl!" Steven rapidly said towards her.
"Yes, Steven, what is it?" She responded toward her seemingly hyperactive child.
"I want you to meet someone real quick."
"Why, I'd love to meet your-OH, MY STARS!" Pearl screamed upon her discovery about Steven's friend. "Steven, what on Earth is that?!"
"Whoa, calm down, Pearl, It's okay. It hasn't seen our kind before, so it's a little uneasy. But it's friendly, I promise! Come here, Centipeedle." Centipeedle quickly went to Steven's location, much to Pearl's dismay.
"Steven, no! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"
"Calm down, Pearl! It's alright, it's alright!"
"No, get that thing away from me!" Centipeedle then pounced onto Pearl, which further inconvenienced her.
Just then, the warp pad began to glow, meaning Garnet and Amethyst had returned home.
"Heya, Pearl," said the latter. "Wassup?"
"Garnet, Amethyst," pleaded Pearl, "help get this disgusting creature off of me!"
"Whoa," said an impressed Amethyst, running towards Centipeedle. "That is so cool!"
"Wha-?! What are you doing?! Help me!"
"But, look at it! It's so awesome! Garnet! Whadda you think?" Garnet stared ponderously at Centipeetle before deciding, "It's alright."
"Yeah!"
"What?! No!" shouted Pearl in contrast. She managed to push it off herself, and stood back up. She fled from Centipeedle, who began to chase after her. She was willing to run as fast as she would have to, or for how long it would take, just to get away from that darn Centipeedle.
