Alyssa was walking to Greg's car wash with the part she ordered for him when she noticed she was being followed by a purple cat. "Hello kitty, you following me, you want some food?" Alyssa asked as she was petting it. She continued to walk to the car wash with the cat, when Alyssa finally got to the car wash Steven and Greg were having a water fight. "Hey you guys your wasting water and with that busted drain line your going to flood the street!" Alyssa told them. "Sorry Alyssa you know us, if there's water we have to have a water fight." Greg told her as he and Steven dropped the hoeses. As Alyssa was giving the part to Greg the cat that followed Alyssa ran over and picked up one of the hoeses in its mouth and sprayed all three of them. After the cat stopped spraying them it started to glow and change shape. After the light died the cat was gone and Amethyst was in its place. "Ha. I got you guys good." Amethyst gloated.

"How did you do that Amethyst?" Steven asked. "I just used my shapeshifting powers, all gems can do it." Amethyst told Steven and Alyssa. "So your saying we can alter our form like you just did?" Alyssa asked. "You should be able to." Amethyst said. "Please show us how." Steven asked. "Shere." Said Amethyst.

Back at the house Amethyst was trying to show them how to shape shift. "It easyist to start with something simple and familler." Amethyst told them. "Something simple huh, ok let me try." Alyssa said. She was focussing on what she wanted to turn into and clapped her hands, she was eveloped in a Brite light and when it died down she was a perfect replica of Amethyst. "Hey it worked, check it out Steven. I'm Amethyst and I want to eat all the food." Alyssa said. "That's totally like Amethyst!" Steven said. "Ya ya, that's real funny. Now change back." Amethyst said with an iterated tone because Alyssa was making fun of her. "Ok but you got to admit it is funny." Alyssa said as she clapped her hands to change back. "Uh-oh!" Said Alyssa in a worded voice. "What do you mean uh-oh?" Amethyst asked. "I think I'm stuck as you, Amethyst." Alyssa told her.

"We need to get Pearl, she'll know what to do." Steven said. After Steven found Pearl she examined her and said "Alyssa will be fine her body will pop back into its natural state in a few hours." Pearl said. "Just go about your normal routein." She said. "That's going to be kind of hard to do as Amethyst, I was going to hang out with some old friends from back home that are in beach city on vacation." Alyssa told Pearl. "I want to meet your friends, Alyssa." Steven told her. "Well there's nothing you can do but wait it out." Pearl told Alyssa. "Great, just great even though James and Kathy know I have gem powers how am I going to explain this to them." Alyssa said with an irritated tone. Just then Garnet walked in the room from the temple and said "Your friends will understand if you tell them about it. Oh and take Steven with you, just a hunch." "If you say so Garnet." Alyssa said.

So Alyssa and Steven went to beach city fun land to meet Alyssa's friends James and Kathy. When Alyssa saw her friends she and Steven ran up to them. "Hey you must be Steven and Amethyst, Alyssa told us all about you and the other gems." Kathy said. "Where's Alyssa?" James asked. "It's me guys, Alyssa. I was messing around with my shapeshifting powers and got stuck as Amethyst." Alyssa told them. "It's true, this is Alyssa." Steven said. "If your Alyssa tell us something only she knows." James asked. "You had a crush on me seince second grade, James." Alyssa told them. "It is Alyssa." Kathy said. "Sorry for douting you Alyssa, so how's your training going?" James asked. "It's going well exspet for the current situation." Alyssa told them. "Well lets go on some rides." Kathy said. "I'm banned from all the rides forever because of the tea cups." Steven said sadly. "Oh ya, I forgot about that. Why don't we play some games instead?" Alyssa told all three of them.

So the group of friends and Steven went around the midway of fun land playing the games like the ring toss and the shooting game and such. Alyssa won a giant stuffed bear for Steven and James and Kathy both won baseball caps with batman's logo on them. "That wasn't fair at the shooting game Alyssa, given how acurite you are with that gun of yours." James said. "It was still hard with those old air soft rifles." Alyssa told him. Just as they were going to leave the amusement park to get some food at beach city fries someone screamed. Alyssa turned to see what was going on and saw that a gaint gem monster was snaecing up all the people on the boardwalk in its many arms. It looked like a huge pudding blob with tenticals for arms. It then grabbed Steven, James, and Kathy in its arms and started to wave them around. "Alyssa help us!" Steven, James, and Kathy screamed.

"Hold on guys, I'll save you!" Alyssa shouted. As she started to run to save Steven and her friends she kept tripping over her self becuase of her legs being shorter than they normally were since she was stuck as Amethyst. How does Amethyst run and fight like this Alyssa thought. As she summoned her gun to fight she was slammed into a wall by the corrupt gem. As Alyssa pulled herself out of the wreckege she was throwien in the air by the gem again becuase she couldn't douge. As she crashed into the boardwalk she plowed a crater about seven foot wide. As she laid in it she started to cry. "Why can't I save Steven and my friend!" Alyssa shouted out loud and slammed her fist into the ground. She pulled her self out of the crater to try and save thous importint to her. As she pull herself up Alyssa body started to glow and with a loud pop she looked like herself again. "Alright I'm back in the body I'm used to." Alyssa shouted as she pulled some of her more dangerous toys out of the pocket deminntion that was in the pocket's of her duster left to her by her mother. She ran back to fun land and got there just as the gem monster was about to eat Steven.

"Hey jerk, I'm back!" Alyssa shouted as she lobed a frag granaed into its mouth. She pulled out her gun and shouted as she shout the corrupted gems arms holding her friends " Steven form your bubble around James and Kathy when you hit the ground!" As the monster dropped Steven and Alyssa's friends Steven formed his bubble just as the granaed went off. The corrupt gem poofed dropping everyone. Just then Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl showed up. "Steven, Alyssa are you alright?" Pearl asked frantically. "Ya, were fine Pearl." Steven answered. "Looks like you saved our bacon again Alyssa." Kathy said. "We loved caching up but we probly won't be coming back to beach city." James said as everyone started to laugh.
