Change is a Good Thing- Turning Tides

Sorry if this is bad, this is my first SongFic or whatever it's called.


After they figured out plans for disaster, Ruby and Sapphire attempted to have a sparring match. All of the gems and Connie and Lion warped up to the Ruins.

"Don't think I'm gonna go easy on ya just 'cause you're cute!" Ruby yelled as Sapphire. Ruby summoned her gauntlets. Sapphire summoned blue brass knuckles with a small star on the handle.

"I wouldn't expect you to. And the same goes for you, Hon!" Sapphire said. Ruby came at Sapphire and Sapphire simply stepped out of the way for all of the swings Ruby could throw. Then Sapphire threw punches with her brass knuckles at a rapid speed and in turn Ruby deflected each one. Steven, Connie, Pearl, Amethyst, Peridot, and Lapis heard a noise outside the Ruins, and, curiosity overwhelming, went to see what it was. Lion was growling and ready to attack a few gems who were fighting a large Ruby. Lion was helping them.

"Black Spinel! Sun Stone! Moon Stone!" Pearl said. They wore stars.

"Turquoise!" Amethyst said coolly as if she were greeting someone she saw everyday on the boardwalk.

"Steven? Explanation?" Connie yelled taking out her sword.

"Ummm, they're gems? I have no idea who they are, why they're here, or why they're fighting!" Steven said.

"The Ruby is from Home World!" Ruby said, being dragged by Sapphire.

"The others are allies! Steven, Connie, stay back! Lion, protect them!" Sapphire yelled as herself and Ruby joined the fight the others had already joined. Soon the Ruby lost control and unfused into seven Rubies. Two went at Ruby and the rest went at the others. A Ruby stepped on Steven's phone and played music.

Said Goodbye, turned around

Sapphire looked for the source of the music and a Ruby poofed her.

And you were gone, gone, gone

Faded into the setting sun

"Sapphire!" Ruby noticed Sapphire's gem at her feet. She picked it up and kept it in her hand as she slid her hand into the gauntlet.

Slipped away

Ruby poofed four Rubies, starting with the one who poofed Sapphire, as a tear slid down her cheek.

I won't cry 'cause I know

I'll never be lonely

You are the stars to me

You are the light I follow

"Is everyone ok?" Pearl looked around and saw a certain blue gem missing. "Where's Sapphire?" Ruby pulled her hand out of her gauntlet.

"Here." she said sadly. "Sapphy's poofed."

I will see you again, oh woah

This is not where it ends

"Well we should warp to the Temple."

I will carry you with me, oh

'Till I see you again

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

"Steven, turn that off." Pearl said sternly.

"I can't a Ruby stepped on it and now it's all wacky."

I can hear those echoes in the wind at night

Calling me back in time

Back to you

Ruby held Sapphire's gem tight against her chest as they warped back to the Temple. "Come back to me quickly Sapphy. Please." Ruby pleaded.

In a place far away

Where the water meets the sky

The thought of it makes me smile

You are my tomorrow

"Don't worry, Ruby. She'll come back. Trust me, it takes time." Amethyst said.

"I know, but how long? I mean, I want her to take her time and come back all fixed up, but I don't know how long I can last without her."

"Didn't you get along without her before you met her?" Pearl asked.

"Yes, but,"

I'll see you again, oh woah

This is not where it ends

I will carry you with me, oh

'Till i see you again

"Back then, I was nothing but an insignificant guard, worthless. And I knew that, I felt that. I had a job to do, and that was all I was made to do. But when I met Sapphire, she made me feel like I actually mattered. Like I could be more than just some weak guard. Without her I feel like a shell of myself when I'm with her. Like I don't matter anymore."

"So you need Sapphire to make you feel strong and worth something, that's it?" Pearl questioned.

"No, no! I love her! I can't stand to be away from her for long! Don't ever Suggest that I'm Using her! I would never! I care about her too much to even hear a suggestion like that!"

"That's what I wanted to hear." Pearl nodded her head once.

Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking

But I stay strong and I hold on

Sapphire's gem glowed and she reformed in the air and fell into Ruby's arms.

'Cause I know

"Sapphy," was all Ruby could manage before Sapphire pulled her into a long kiss.

I'll see you again, oh woah

This is not where it ends-

"Got it!" Steven yelled as the music reached and abrupt stop, drawing the attention of Ruby and Sapphire away from each other. "Now who are these new gems?"


I will have pictures of the new gems in the cover image.
