I SAW the GEMS ch. 2
I OWN AND REGRET NOTHING!
…...
When the gems woke up, the first thing they noticed was wrong was that their was now 4 of them. Ruby panicked and desperately tried to fuse back together...and that's when they found out the second problem...Their gems were gone! Quickly Pearl set up a scan which concluded that-
Were human! Screamed Pearl. Amethyst looked at her confused. "What do you mean were human?" Pearl was starting to shake now.
"It means exactly that...Were not crystal Gems anymore...were normal humans...w-we can't fuse, summon weapons, or anything."
"NO!" Screamed Ruby. "I can't- We can't- I need- I- I-"
Suddenly, Ruby just completely broke down and rolled up into a fetal position crying. Sapphire desperately tried to consul her. She looked at the other two sadly.
"Sorry guys, I think your going to have to do this without us." This was another blow to them, they'd be without Garnet! Amethyst and Pearl felt more lost then ever...Then their eyes feel on the picture of a tortured Steven; and just like that their resolve was steeled.
They then also noticed that the clown had opened it's mouth, revealing a second disc. They plucked it out of the mouth causing it's eyes to shift into a clock-
24:00
Which begins to count backward. Quickly, they put the disc into the TV. And soon the clown was back on.
Hello, Gems.
Longer than human history, you have been the guardians of earth...Yet your attitude towards humans puzzles me-
Suddenly the picture changed. And to the gems horror, it was a recording! Of them! In their own house!
- "Humans just live short, boring insignificant lives, so they make up stories to feel like they're part of something bigger. They want to blame all the world's problem on some single enemy they can fight, instead of a complex network of interrelated forces beyond anyone's control"-
Human life is insignificant, is it? Boring are we?
What dose that make Steven then?
Or his dad?
Or Connie?
Or all his other friends?
Did you ever even stop to consider how your words would make Steven feel?
Pearl was completely floored by this! "What!? No! I- That's not what I- I was just- I didn't mean it like that! Steven knows that!"
Dose he pearl? Dose he really?
Said the clown as the picture began to change again- "Ooookay, that was creepy." Admitted Amethyst.
Pearl could only dumbly nod. The next recording was that of Steven telling Connie about their adventure to Roses Fountain. For the first couple of minutes Pearl didn't understand what she was supposed to be hearing...Until-
-"Oh, Steven. You don't have healing tears. You'll never have any real magic powers, and we don't want anything more to do with you."
Once more Rose was floored. T-this is what Steven really believes? What he believes we think of him?
While she thought this, the picture changed again. This time of Steven driving with the cool kids-
-"I'd talk to the gems about it...But I'm pretty sure they blame me for my mom's death."
Pearl felt her face become hot with tears. S-steven. I-i'm so sorry! Amethyst was just pale.
-The chemical I gave you will only last a week.
This should give you more than enough time to walk a mile, run a mile ,jump a mile, even fly a mile in our shoe's
Learn what it's like to be "insignificant"
what it's like to be unable to make yourself "whole" whenever you wish.
(Ruby and Sapphire flinch at this)
More importantly you'll have all the time you need to see what it's like to be at the bottom of the food chain...
Steven on the other hand...dosen't have the time...
The Gems pushed aside their tears as they leaned forward to hear what came next...
