"How do we find Dawn though?" Steven asked as he followed the Gems home.

"That's where you come in," Garnet said to the young boy. "You are Rose's son, your gem can help transport messages and ways into other worlds."

"It can?" Steven asked, sounding a little thrilled and surprised. "I never knew that!"

"We were waiting for an appropriate time to tell you and I think now might be a good time..."

There was rumbling heard.

"The Gem Eaters are coming!" Amethyst cried.

Those were the new threats of Beach City. They were dragons that somehow made it into their dimension. These dragons were interesting, they breathed fire and could fly just like any other dragon. But these dragons eat gems such as sapphires, rubies, opals, you name it. Who knwos what they might do to these Crystal Gems? Especially Steven?

"Come on, Steven, we have to move!" Pearl picked up the boy, running with him, acting like his mother, but in reality, she was not, neither were Garnet and Amethyst of course.

Greg came out of his van with a bag of potato chips. "What's going on here?"

"Greg, we need to get out of here, the Gem Eaters are coming!" Pearl told him, her voice panicked and filled with warning.

"Gem Eaters?" Greg didn't sound familiar, of course, unlike his son and wife, he was not a gem.

"No time to explain, Dad!" Steven told his father, sounding mature and responsible for his age. "We gotta go!"

"Steven is right, these monsters won't stop until their hunger is satisfied or we can find a way to get them out of here and have Beach City live in peace and harmony once more." Garnet added.

Greg was a little scared, but looked serious a moment. "Hop in."

It was then, everyone got into Greg's van and drove off. There were loud stomps heard and Greg flipped out once he could see the Gem Eating Dragons. They didn't look friendly at all and very hungry.

"Hey, uhh... Do these Gem Eater things eat people?" Greg asked, a little frightened for his life.

"They might since you have us in your hostage..." Garnet didn't even know for sure.

"Steven, take off your shirt," Amethyst told the boy. "We need your gem to send this message to find Topaz's descendant!"

Steven lifted his pink/golden starred shirt to show his rose quartz gem passed down to him from his mother after she gave birth to him. Garnet showed her gem, Pearl did the same, and so did Amethyst. They weren't going to fuse, they were going to send a call through to another world. This was the only way to get Topaz's descendant to help them defeat the Gem Eaters. If it didn't work, then the Crystal Gems would be no more and they wouldn't be able to save the day like always, because they'll always find a way.

There was a pale blonde haired girl with very long flowing hair, deep ocean blue eyes, purple lips, an argyle green sweater with a sky blue collar, dark-colored skirt, blue tights, and black shoes. She sighed as today was an anniversary of something that made her feel most sad. It was Mother's Day, a holiday she happily celebrated with Mother Earth, but never her biological mother.

"Hi, Mom..." the girl muttered as she kneeled by the tombstone of her late mother named Molly Evergreen-Medrek. "I really miss you..."

Dawn had always had a keen interest in Mother Nature like her parents. But mostly her mother, Dawn's mother was the true nature lover. Especially when she was under Rose Quartz's influence. Dawn didn't understand her mother's death sometimes. Her father often told her that her mother died in childbirth, meaning she died giving birth to Dawn.

This made the moonchild teen feel guilty and she devoted herself to the great outdoors to possibly make up for it. After all, her cousin Arnold didn't cause his mother to die when it was time for him to be born. How could that be?

"Mom... I miss you..." Dawn sighed, her eyes slowly shutting as a tear rolled down her cheek.

Dawn looked up at the sky as the clouds seemed to grow darker suddenly. Was a storm coming to strike her down now on a day like today that made her feel haunted? The cloud seemed to open up somehow. But how could that be possible? It wasn't... Wasn't it? The clouds seemed to shape and form slightly and they turned a bright pink color like rose tulips. In fact, they formed into a beautiful pink woman with pronounced lips and very large curly pink hair. Her bright eyes opened up, then the woman seemed to smile.

"Dawn... I've been meaning to see you for the longest time..." the cloud woman said with a gentle and motherly voice.

"Wh-Who are you?" Dawn asked, a little alarmed to see this pink woman in the clouds.

"My name is Rose Quartz, child," the gem woman replied. "Your mother's mentor..."

Dawn blinked, a little taken aback, trying to absorb that in her mind.
