After their unfortunate defeat, the crystal gems returned to their country house, they had lost in a stupid and basically humiliated way, everyone was with their heads down sad, peridot had one of her hands on lapis's back, when they entered the through the door, the energy seemed darker in that place, the weather was still gray and threatened by rain
"Man he is strong" said amethyst leaning over the table
The others just looked up, and turned their heads down just accepting her comentary
"If he really is... what he says he is ... I don't know how ... but we have to find a way to stop him" said Steven returning to his adult form
"first we have to know what we are facing of, there has to be something that mentions him" said pearl
Everyone was silent again, lapis went a few steps forward
"A god gem ... I didn't know that it was even possible" said lapis with an emphasis on her last sentence
"Whatever he is, I imagine it is a very bad thing, we have to ..." garnet said
Soon a voice cut her off
"No ..." said peridot
They all looked at her in surprise, even steven looked in a strange way at his friend
"It will not work, there is no way to stop him ... we will not win against god" said peridot
They were all horrified by the words of the little gem
"Do you want him to destroy everything on earth?, you won't do anything?"screamed pearl
Peridot soon got up and faced pearl with an angry expression in her eyes
"If you want to fight him that's all right ... do as you want, but I will not involve my family on this" said peridot
Then peridot walked off and went up the stairs, pearl just crossed her arms looking to the side with sadness, lapis opened her mouth to give her opinion, but soon she closed herself when she saw her child in the arms of peridot descending the stairs again
"Peridot" shouted pearl
Soon peridot opened the door, and turquoise was on her arms, she looked at everyone again
"Come on lapis" said peridot in a serious tone looking at her wife
Lapis put a hand on her arm looking to the side
"Peridot I ..." replied lapis with a sad tone
Peridot just arched her gaze with sadness and seriousness, her eyes shone as if it seemed to be showing power, then peridot went out the door and took her garbage lid and flew away
At that time a gem enters through the door, that gem was bismuth
"wow, I leave you for a few days and everything goes off rail_ said bismuth
Soon bismuth realized that everyone had their sad looks on, she approached slowly, her clothes were a white office shirt and jeans
"Look guys, I know there is a huge destruction outside ... but what is the real damage?" Asked bismuth realizing the situation
"God ... this is the real damage" said garnet
"But what?" Almost shouted bismuth
After a long conversation, everyone explained what had just happened and what would come next, it was as new for bismuth as it is for them
"Let's see if I understood, a powerful mega top power being, came here said he was our creator, beat everyone up, and now he will destroy the world?, wow a lot to digest" said bismuth with a hand on her forehead
"I'm worried about peridot, I haven't seen her so upset since ..." said lapis with tears about to fall
Everyone looked down again
"lapis, go with peridot, she needs you" said pearl
Lapis just wiped her face and went outside, spreading her wings and took off at a tremendous speed, steven had his hand over his face leaning over the table, then he took a big breath
"Okay, god gem, what do we know about him?" Asked Steven
Everyone remained quiet
"come on, someone has to know something" said Steven irritated
At lapis and peridot house, peridot was inside their house finishing some of her meep morps, her mind was tired and confused, her daughter was already asleep, so peridot heard a landing outside, but she didn't even bother to go see who it was
Soon the door was opened and with small steps inside the house, lapis went to the meeting of peridot, but peridot did not even turn
"Hey, do you want to talk?" Asked lapis gently
Peridot just sighed
Back at the crystal gems country house, steven soon had the idea
"Listen, obviously god gem is so old for any one of us to know him" said Steven
"And obviously he is not a gem" said pearl
Steven pointed to pearl with a length sign
"So we will have to do a super research, we will have to go where no other gem had the curiosity to go, and I already know where to start" said Steven pointing upwards
Soon the gems started raising their heads
"We can talk to the diamonds" said Steven
Everyone looked confused
"God gem mentioned that the white diamond was his first made, she must know something about him" said pearl
Everyone started to make sense of what they were hearing
"The chest!" Replied steven
Everyone made a sound of confusion
"In the lion's mane, there is a chest that I never managed to open, and if ... there is something inside it that talks about the origin of the gems" said Steven, remembering the chest
"Pearl go and warn lapis and peridot, we have a plan" said garnet adjusting her glasses
AT THE HOUSE OF LAPIS AND PERIDOT
Lapis and peridot were sitting outside their house, with a confire in front of them, peridot had a serious look on her face, lapis had her head on peridot's shoulder
"Peridot, I'm sorry ... it's just that, everything is very confusing, the pumpkin, a god who created the gems, our child ..." said lapis
Peridot eased her gaze a little
"Lapis?" She just said
"Yes?" asked lapis
Peridot after a few seconds replied
"Us ... we have a child now, everything we have now is nothing like before ... you two mean a lot to me, us ... i, as a father, will protect my family, even if it means, that I have to let you two hate me for my decision" said peridot turning her face
Lapis couldn't believe it, peridot really had matured a lot, her appearance was a little bit taller and apparently she looked like she had more muscles in her arms, she really had matured in age too
"I know peridot, he is god, how we do we fight against god, but know that our daughter and I love you very much ... and we can never hate you for wanting to protect us" said lapis rising
Peridot looked at lapis and in some shelves her lips were touched together, they enjoyed the kiss with their eyes closing slowly, then they parted and peridot was a little flushed in a green tone
"I'm going to sleep, see you in the morning" said lapis with a smile
Peridot just turned her face to the side, lapis felt a little frustrated, but soon she went on with her walk, and peridot sat there with the confire
AT THE COUNTRY HOUSE
Steven was still sitting at his desk with his hands over his face, then connie came down the stairs and gave steven a hug, steven soon turned to his wife and hugged her back
Soon they separated and connie went to the kitchen, because she saw steven's family approaching him, everyone took a chair and sat down, it was already late at night, steven soon felt his hands being touched with all the hands of the gems
Steven just gave a weak laugh
"This is great, everything was so perfect" said Steven tired
Everyone was silent a little longer
"First, the diamonds, then spinel, and finally ..." said Steven
Everyone made a surprise face
"'sigh"' 'Me ..." replied steven completing his sentence
"And now? ... god" finished steven
"it was a long day, we all need to rest, tomorrow we will talk to the diamonds and hope they can solve this" said steven
And soon everyone went to their rooms, ending that dark day, and getting ready to face the next morning.
