Emerald gave Garnet long thoughtful look.

"I know I look different. Every one dose.", Garnet says then waves her hand. "Step back.", she warns the quiet gem who did as she was told. A heart beat later a portal appeared then a pink cat like animal hoped out. On it's back were two small figures.

"Garnet!", Steven shouts happily.

"Connie Steven meet Emerald.", Garnet says pointing to her. Emerald still wore a startled look as the boy turned his eyes on her.

"Oh wow! You're a Crystal Gem too so cool!", he says hugging the startled gem who looks up at Garnet confused.

"This is Rose's son we lost her.", Garnet says quietly. Emerald looks sad for a moment then hugged the boy back.

"Your mom was awesome. ", Emerald says.

"Wow another gem why haven't I heard of you?", Connie asked.

"long story. Her story. We need to get back. Steven can you land us near water? Emerald should clean up.", Garnet says as she hops onto Lion's back then patted the space in front of her. "Let's go home the others are waiting.", Garnet says when Emerald looks hesitant. Steven waves encouraging her to hop on. Connie smiled from her spot then looked forward. Emerald hopped on then felt herself jolted forward in seconds they land at a beach.

"Steven go on ahead remember Emerald is a surprise.", Garnet says to Steven who takes Connie's hand then they walk down the beach with Lion. Garnet turns to Emerald then points to the water. Emerald walks into the water until she can no longer be seen. After about two minutes she came out looking way cleaner. "Much better. Now follow directly behind me until I step aside. Trust me it will be worth it.", Garnet says with a mysterious grin. They started to walk towards a barn. True to nature when Garnet had told Emerald to follow directly behind her, to surprise everyone, the quiet gem made sure to do so. The sound of worried arguing filled her ears.

"I'm home!", Garnet says with a smile

"Garnet!", everyone shouts.

"We were so worried. So Steven and Connie did find you.", Pearl says relieved. Garnet nodds then turns her full attention to Pearl.

"Hey Pearl look who I found.", Garnet says taking a side step revealing Emerald. Pearl stared for a long time unable to speak.

"Emerald?", Pearl says softly. Emerald smiled softly nodding. "EMERALD!", Pearl says then rushes the quiet gem. She hugs Emerald close as the quiet gem hugs her back. "I thought I lost you. ", Pearl whispers mostly to herself. Emerald looks on the verge of tears she had missed Pearl so much.

"I missed you.", Emerald whispered back.

"Emerald's back whoo!", Amethyst says finding her voice. Emerald and Pearl pull away from each other blushing slightly.

"Wait you guys had an emerald on your team?", Peridot asked.

"Yes she's been lost and is now home", Garnet says.

"Something tells me this is a story I have to hear.", Peridot says sitting down. Every one followed suit. Connie and Steven join looking at Emerald expectantly.

"It's okay I'll help you when I can.",Pearl says softly earning a smile as Emerald sat own and looked thoughtful.
