(Steven Universe Intro)
(Wings of the Cloudrunner)
When the group regained their senses they were in the giant hand of the WarpStone as he set them all back on the ground.
"Wh-Why-How did we-WE GOT TO GET BACK TO STEVEN!" Pearl shouted hysterically, looking back up at the WarpStone. "Take us back there!"
"I can't. The Krazoa sent you back and if I send you to Krazoa Palace without a spirit they'll simply send you back." The WarpStone replied.
"Please, just try! We can't leave Steven back there!" Pearl begged.
"Find another spirit and I'll send you back. It's time you guys got goin' anyways. One Spellstone down and three more to go. The next place you ought to look is Cape Claw, where the Ocean Force Point Temple is located." The WarpStone answered. "There might be a Krazoa Shrine somewhere around there."
The Gems and Connie all wanted to argue but the WarpStone turned away, deciding that the conversation was over.
"Let me at him." Amethyst pulled out her whip.
"Wait!" Fox held up his hands as he got their attention. "Look, you guys are all upset and worried and you should be but hurting the big guy who is the only one who can get us back to the Krazoa Palace is not the answer."
The Gems all looked extremely reluctant but stood down.
"So what do we do, Fox?" Connie asked.
Fox shrugged. "Well, if only a Krazoa spirit can get us into the Palace we'll just have to find one and the big guy just told us where to go next."
"But Steven-" Pearl started but stopped as Garnet put a hand on her shoulder.
Garnet was silent as she looked at the other Gems. "I know how you all feel. We should go back and help Steven but…This is planet whatever's driving it is out of our control. We tried to help Steven but we failed and we were pulled back and if we can't go back to try and free him…We'll have to do as Fox suggests."
"But Garnet-" Amethyst protested.
"I know, Amethyst!" Garnet cut her off harshly. "I don't want to go running around the planet while Steven is trapped but…I don't know what else to do."
The Gems all seemed to understand from the looks on their faces. They all wanted to argue but none of them had the strength to do so.
"Let us go." Garnet looked at Fox. "Lead the way, Fox."
Fox nodded and brought up a holographic map and looked at the display, the location of Cape Claw being close to the ocean. "Okay, I know where to go next."
With that said they left the WarpStone's hangout and Fox led them to the sign pointing to Cape Claw. Going in the pointed direction they entered the stone tunnel that was ahead and followed it all the way to the end to find a new area.
"This way." Fox turned right and once he reached the end he jumped into the water.
Garnet picked up Connie and Peridot and jumped down, keeping them safe from landing in the water. They climbed out on the other side, following the obvious path that went through the next tunnel. On the way they found signs that pointed to a place called LightFoot Village.
"The Lightfoot village?" Connie asked. "Must be another tribe."
"Maybe they're called that for being light on their feet." Amethyst remarked, trying to make a joke in the wake of everyone learning Steven's fate.
They reached an area with trees and two Sharpclaw patrolling. Garnet walked forward and knocked them out without saying a word. It was obvious to anyone, even Fox and Tricky that she had a lot on her mind right now.
At the end of the area was a gate with a golden Scarab statue. "Give me 60 Scarabs to reach Cape Claw."
Fox quickly gave it 60 Scarabs and the group then proceeded through the gate behind it. The next area was a maze.
"Great. A maze." Amethyst groaned. "Let's just punch through it."
Fox held up his map display. "Or we follow this map."
It took only a moment to get through the maze and the next bit is relatively straightforward, and at the end of it, they found a ladder. Fox climbed down first, and then follow the ladder/cliff-jumping trail to the bottom.
"That map says Cape Claw is just beyond this." Fox said as the Gems and Connie climbed down. "We need to go that way." He pointed to the ladder on the other side leading to a tunnel.
Making their way back to the second level, they went right and climbed the ladder before following the tunnel to reach Cape Claw. The place they had been walking to over an entire day looked like a beach paradise.
"Wow." Connie said as they walked down the path, noticing the giant Krazoa statue near the waterfall. "This place looks amazing."
"And the Ocean Force Point temple is behind the statue of the Krazoa." Tricky said before suddenly stopping and looked around.
"Tricky?" Fox asked.
"I…I thought I heard something." Tricky answered before shaking it off. "Never mind, let's go."
Fox shrugged and continued on, stopping at a waterfall with no bridge.
"We can jump across with anyone who can't make it one at a time." Pearl suggested before looking at the waterfall, seeing a red switch. "Wait…Fox, do you see that?"
Fox pulled out his staff and aimed at the switch, hitting it with his Fire Blaster. This caused a bridge to extend out, connecting the two cliffs.
"That is a very interesting weapon. If you don't mind, Fox I'd like a chance to you look if you're willing." Peridot said as they crossed the bridge.
"Maybe another time." Fox said as they walked in front of the statue. "So this is the Ocean Force Point Temple. We won't be able to get in without a SpellStone."
Connie looked around and saw a cave with bars on a beach next to the statue. "Look! I think that's a cell and someone's inside it!"
The Gems and Fox looked in the direction Connie was pointing and followed down the path to the beach.
Garnet grabbed the bars and pulled them apart. "Is anyone in here?"
Out of the cave came, to Connie's shock, a large red skinned pterodactyl with a blue robe like cloth around its neck, a golden collar around its neck and a crown on its head.
Tricky was more vocal. "Whoa! A Cloudrunner! Shoo, Shoo! Go away CloudRunner, get away!"
Fox looked down at Tricky who hid behind his legs. "Have you two met?"
The Cloudrunner glanced at Tricky and she answered. "He is an Earthwalker. I am a Cloudrunner. Our tribes don't see eye to eye. His father's probably been saying terrible things about me."
She walked past Fox as he glanced at the cell. "Who locked you in there?"
"General Scales. Who else?" The Cloudrunner answered, sounding annoyed at the question. "You see I am the Queen of the Cloudrunner tribe and also the Gatekeeper."
"That guy needs to be taught a lesson." Fox said sternly. "Where is he now?"
The Cloudrunner Queen looked up at the sky. "He used my power to open a path to the Cloudrunner Fortress. I must return there and help my tribe."
"I'm gonna need that Spellstone." Fox brought his communicator. "Peppy, make sure the Arwing is ready when I get back to the hollow."
"Wait a minute! There's no way I'm going up to her fortress!" Tricky protested.
Fox looked down at Tricky before sighing. "Fine, you can sit this one out. We'll head back to the hollow and you can wait there."
"We haven't much time." The Queen Cloudrunner lifted herself into the air. "I'll meet you at the fortress."
She shot up into the sky, opening the portal to the Cloudrunner Fortress.
"Lapis, can you follow the queen to her fortress?" Garnet asked the water gem.
Lapis glanced at the gems for a second. "I don't like this idea."
"Huh?"
"We should have just gone back to the Krazoa Palace to help Steven." Lapis argued, looking at the Gems. "You gave up too fast."
Pearl glared and walked up to Lapis, looking her in the eyes. "No we did not and if I had my way I'd be back at the palace trying to free Steven but we were forced away and we're being forced to look for these stones and spirit."
"And Lapis, if Steven was here he'd want to help the dinosaurs." Connie spoke up, earning everyone's attention. "You know it and you know he wouldn't want you to abandon the dinosaurs and us when we need you the most to help us."
Lapis stared at Connie before sighing and reluctantly nodded. "Fine, I'll help…For Steven."
She sprouted her water wings and flew up after the Cloudrunner Queen through the portal.
