An: Thank you for all of the reviews! It means so much to me. I'm happy you're all enjoying my fanfic. Please leave reviews, they keep me motivated to write.
"I'm not going to stop you." Pearl sighed as she stood there ready to be poofed.
"Steven wouldn't have wanted this." Amethyst spoke up shocking everyone.
"Don't you try and change her mind!" Lapis yelled wanting Connie to poof Pearl.
"This is unnecessary." Garnet wasn't going to stop anything from happening either.
"I still don't understand this friend thing, but I don't think this is what they do." Peridot was confused.
"Don't tell me what Steven would want! I am his best friend, I know what he wants." Connie knew how he felt about everything.
"What could you possibly know that we don't know?" Pearl wasn't going to fight Connie.
"I know far more than any of you know about him." Connie knew his human emotions. Something the Gems lacked on.
"This isn't a competition of who knows him better." Garnet stoically said as she crossed her arms.
"Just put down the sword." Amethyst saw her family being broken up.
"You're much better than this Connie." Garnet stood a little closer to Connie.
"I am not any better than this!" Connie shouted with tears falling down her face. "This is all of your fault." Connie pointed the sword around at everyone.
"What is happening down there!?" Greg woke up and peaked his head down at everyone.
"Nothing important." Lapis shrugged.
"Why does Connie have her sword ready as if she's going to chop someone's head off?" Greg freaked out.
"We can handle this Greg." Garnet crossed her arms again.
"Don't listen to them! They're liars." Connie warned Greg.
"Connie." Greg walked down the stairs slowly.
"What!?" Snapped Connie.
"Everyone here is a part of Steven's family. I don't think he would appreciate you hurting anyone." Greg explained.
"They let him suffer in there!" Connie explained her reasoning.
"It isn't confirmed that he was trapped in there." Greg was nervous.
"I-I wasn't there for him." Connie started breaking down. "I promised I would be there for him, but I let him down." Connie painfully cried.
"This isn't your fault." Garnet spoke as she carefully removed the sword from Connie's hand.
"I was suppose to be there for him." Connie collapsed to the floor crying.
"We all were suppose to be there for him." Greg spoke.
"But we failed." Pearl blurted out.
"We all are to blame here." Garnet frowned a little while she knelt down and rubbed Connie's back.
"Not all of us." Lapis squinted her eyes and looked around at everyone.
"Shut up." Amethyst looked at Lapis.
"Hey!" Peridot looked at Amethyst.
"I never got to tell him that I love him!" Connie put her face into her knees as she cried the hardest she ever cried before.
"You don't have to worry about that dude." Amethyst responded.
"What?" Connie looked up at Amethyst for a second.
"His gem is glowing." Amethyst pointed at his gem and hopped off one of the kitchen stools.
"Everyone step back." Garnet ordered. "He'll need some space." She explained.
Steven was reforming. Rose never got the chance to see what shape he was in. The gem needed time to go back to normal.
"My son." Greg covered his mouth shocked.
"Steven!" Peridot and Lapis yelled as they looked shocked at one another.
"My baby!" Pearl also covered her mouth shocked.
Steven laid there on the floor lifeless. His eyes didn't open and he didn't move at all.
"He's ice cold." Garnet said as she picked him up.
"What happened to him?!" Connie yelled as she stood up.
"Something went wrong in the gem like I had predicted earlier." Garnet took off her shades.
"He's going to be okay, right?" Greg put his hand on Steven's hair which was stiff.
"It's hard to tell as of now." Garnet felt like falling apart.
"This can't be happening." Connie looked at the love of her life who laid lifeless in Garnet's arms.
"Is there a heart beat?" Pearl was afraid to ask.
"I-I can't hear one." Garnet brought Steven's chest up to her ear.
"Maybe you have bad hearing." Amethyst's voice cracked. "And you said he's ice cold. Heat him up." Amethyst was looking for every possible solution to fix this.
"A blanket wouldn't do much." Connie replied trying to keep her tears back.
"You guys are all stupid." Lapis was freaking out on the inside.
"How so?" Pearl responded.
"Just un-fuse." Lapis started explaining. "You are literally made out of a Ruby." Lapis looked at Garnet.
Garnet split up after Lapis's idea. Ruby held Steven in her arms while Sapphire had her hand on Ruby's shoulder.
"Don't burn him!" Greg felt like he was going bald as every second passed because he was stressing out so much.
Ruby started to heat up. She heated up enough to make Steven feel warm.
"His heart is beating." Sapphire slightly smiled as she hears his heart beating louder than ever.
"That's a good sign!" Amethyst felt a little relived.
"Why isn't he opening his eyes?" Peridot question.
"He needs rest." Pearl answered as she got his bed ready.
"Should we bring him to a hospital?" Greg asked rubbing his hair making sure he didn't get balder from the stressful experience.
"He should be okay." Sapphire watched Ruby set Steven down on his bed.
"I can get my mom to come here. She's a doctor." Connie didn't trust the Gems as much.
"We wouldn't was to disturb her." Pearl blushed a little.
"She told me to call her if I need anything. This is really important." Connie reached for her phone in her back pocket.
"Steven better be okay or I will ruin you." Lapis looked straight into Pearl's big blue eyes.
"We should fuse." Sapphire whispered to Ruby.
"Good idea." Ruby responded knowing that everyone would listen to them if they were Garnet.
Connie went out onto the deck with Greg. She called her mother to come to the Temple.
"This better be important." Priyanka was a little annoyed.
"I promise you it is." Connie worriedly stated.
"I will try to get over there as fast as I can." Priyanka heard the worry in Connie's voice.
"Keep your eyes on the road." Connie replied as she hung up the phone.
"Is your mom coming?" Greg questioned .
"Yes." Connie answered,
"Thank you for calling her." Greg felt relived that a doctor was going to check and make sure his son is okay.
"Don't thank me. Steven needs proper care." Connie felt like it's the least she could do for Steven.
"You're right." Greg responded as they heard bickering from inside.
"Please be okay." Connie wished as she watched a shooting star pass.
Thanks for reading!
