Chapter 11: Fusion Fight
"Alright everyone the human Greg, clearly thinks that their is something useful on the beach, so fan out and do your best I guess," grumbled Peridot. Alex and Amethyst were told to watch her, for she still was untrusted by the others. Greg and Steven were checking behind rocks and Lapis, whose water was her major element slowly lifted up the waves and before them were many objects.
"Why would anyone throw away a tire asked Steven, rolling it up to the shore.
"Hey if we can't use that for the drill could I have it?" asked Amethyst excitedly.
"Why would you need a tire for?" asked Pearl.
"Stuff," replied Amethyst. Pearl just rolled her eyes but didn't say anything. Luna helped bring stuff up to the shore, every now and then she could feel Alex's eyes on her.
She couldn't blame Alex for being concerned, heck Luna couldn't believe she almost shattered herself, she didn't remember ever feeling that bad. Maybe it was seeing Jasper again, hearing about how she was seen on Homeworld, her past was coming back to haunt her. Yet, she would never ever take the easy way out whatever happens she would face it.
"Hey Luna are you okay?" asked Jasper placing a hand on her shoulder.
"Just have a lot on my mind," replied Luna.
"Hey no worries I am sure everything will be okay, but if you ever want to talk I will listen," Jasper told her with a smile. Luna smiled back and unbeknowst to her, Garnet saw this display of affection and a frown formed on her face. Yet, Garnet gritted her teeth and continued looking for stuff for the drill. Luna scanned the area, but didn't find anything too interesting, Jasper was luckier she actually found some old scrap metal.
"Man people literally will throw anything away huh," commented Luna.
"I guess so, they really shouldn't do that," Jasper said picking up the metal.
"Some humans don't respect the planet," Luna commented. She was about to look at another area, when she felt the ground shaking. Garnet stood up suddenly alert, as did Pearl. Luna stood up straight and in the distance saw a massive wave coming at them. "GET TO HIGH GROUND!" Luna yelled and with lightening speed grabbed Steven and Alex as Jasper grabbed Greg and they scrambled to get to high ground.
Lapis who was near the water tried to push it back, yet she struggled. "This is no ordinary wave!" she shouted trying to hold it back.
"Lapis get out of there!" Steven yelled racing to her.
"Steven!" Pearl shouted going after him. Just then a massive gem monster came out of the water, looking like a crab monster mixed with a sea serpent. It's head was a crab face with pinchers yet the rest of it's body looked like a massive boa constricter.
"Pearl, Amethsyt, with me!" Garnet yelled and even though Pearl wanted to grab Steven, she nodded and joined Garnet.
A massive light erupted from them and a new fusion was on the beach. This fusion was huge even by Sardonyx's features, the fusion had magenta skin, with six arms. Her face was plumps like Garnet's and Amethyst's yet looked primarily like Pearl's face. The hair color was a mane of turquoise, and she wore big shades like Garnet's but it looked way different for these shades were indigo and oval shaped. The outfit was a mix match of the gems. Luna just stood there in amazement unable to say a word.
The fusion looked down at her and in a gruff voice said," Get them to safety, I will handle this". Luna only nodded and began to gather up the others but the monster sent a huge tidal wave seperating everyone. Greg and Steven were on the side of the beach groaning, and Alex on the other side holding onto Peridot. Lapis landed with Luna and Jasper ontop of the cliff. This made the fusion mad as it roared and Luna saw another mouth coming from the fusion as it leaped at the monster.
A fist fight began as the fusions began to battle each other. "Alex, Steven!" Luna called trying to get down to them.
"Hold on Luna, I am coming too," Jasper said. Lapis followed for Steven was down there, but the ground was shaking and it was hard to stable themselves. The creature grabbed the fusion crushing it with it's pinchers as the tail wrapped around the fusion.
"AWWW!," the fusion yelled in pain trying to get free. Luna stood there frozen trying to figure out what to do.
The fusion broke free as a bow and arrow formed and shot arrows at the beast, yet, it's pinchers broke them easily and swam like lightening and rammed the fusion. The fusion slammed into the side of the cliff. It slowly got up but the monster was still on the attack, again using it's massive pinchers grabbing both sides of the new fusion. trying to pry them apart. Again the fusion's screams echoed and Luna had to do something. She decided to do the only thing she knew that would work.
"Jasper, Lapis, fuse with me," Luna said.
"What!" both gems said shocked looks on there faces.
"Please we have to help, and together we can be strong enough to save our friends," Luna told her.
"No I can't not with her not again, I can't, no," Lapis said backing away. Tears filled her eyes as she hugged herself.
"Lapis please do this for Steven," Luna said gently.
"Steven," Lapis said looking up.
"He is down there, and if that creature gets to shore it will hurt Steven. Look, I am not going to try and understand what happened when you fused with Jasper, but Jasper has changed and I will be there. Lapis, I give you my word that once we beat the monster, we both will let go, you won't be trapped," Luna told her firmly.
"I swear to let go Lapis, please help us," Jasper said knowing they had to help. Lapis bit her lip but once she saw Steven trying to get up and form a bubble around his dad, the poor kid fell looking real hurt. A serious look formed on Lapis face and she nodded her head.
"Thank you," Luna said. "Okay um how exactly do we do this?" she asked still not used to fusion.
"I could try spining both of you, maybe that will work," Jasper said.
"Okay, you ready Lapis?" asked Luna worrying for the water gem.
"For Steven I will do anything," Lapis said and took Jasper's hand as did Luna. Jasper twirled them and brought them both closer to her and then a flash of light appeared and their fusion was born.
