Insert Opening
Alex, Steven and Greg are washing Mayor Dewey's Van.
"Almost done!" Greg says as he sprays the win with a hose."Alex, Steven get the hubs!"
"Hubbing it up!" Steven says as he rubs hubcaps faster.
Alex rolls her eyes but also starts to rub the hubcaps faster.
"Hub it good! This is a high-profile job" Greg says.
"You mean cause it's the mayors election-mobile?" Steven asks.
"If we do this right, we might get political favours!" Greg tells him.
"I'm not sure what that is, but I like it!" Steven grabs the sprays the van with the hose and hits Greg by mistake.
Greg hits him back, and they start to have a hose, Alex also gets hit a few time. She just crosses her arms and looks unamused at them.
"Hey, hey, hey! I'm not paying for father-son bonding here!" The Mayor says as he walks towards them.
Steven accidentally sprays him with the hose."Universe! Contol that kid." Mayor says wiping the water off himself and then pointing at Steven.
Alex glares at him as she also wipes the water off herself.
"Steven! Hehehe, I'm sorry, Mayor Dewey, Hehe, this one's on the house" Greg says as he stands next to Steven.
"On the house, eh. I like the way you do business, Universe. " Says the Mayor as he climbs into his car and drives away.
"Political favours!" Steven exclaims.
Greg picks him up and noogies him "Ahh, you rascal! Enough with the hose fights!" Greg says. "Aw, okay." Steven laughs.
Alex looks at this with crossed arms and with a sad look in her. Suddenly she gets splashed with some water she looks down annoyed and sees a purple cat.
"What the?" Greg asks.
"Woah!" He and Steven get chased by the cat who sprays water on them.
"What's with this cat?" Greg asks.
"That's Amy," Alex says as Amethyst turns into her normal form.
"Haha! Got you guys!" Amethyst laughs.
"Amethyst!" Steven says with stars in his eyes.
"Uh, pretty cool, Amethyst. "Greg says though Alex notices that he looks kinda intimidated.
"Really cool! I wish I could shapeshift like you!" Steven says.
"You could probably learn," Amethyst says as she ties the hose into a knot.
"Really?" Steven asks.
"Sure. "Amethyst lifts Stevens shirt up. "You've got a gem and Alex too."
"Whup! Magic stuff. Should I get out of here? Is there going to be an explosion?" Greg asks nervously.
But Alex narrows her eyes, she notices that Greg's behaviour was kinda weird towards Amy´s shifting.
"Oh, it's not a big deal dad," Steven says.
"Yeah, it's fine," Amethyst says after she shape-shifts into Steven.
Later at their house.
"Hey, Pearl. "Amethyst says as she shape-shifts into a seal and makes Seal noises. Steven and Alex laugh.
"Do more!" Steven says.
"Check it out!" Amethyst says and she shape-shift in different animals, a wolf, a puma and into a jay.
"Amethyst, you're overdoing it," Pearl says as she walks over.
"Uh, chill it, dude," Amethyst says annoyed.
"Just because you can shapeshift, doesn't mean you should." Pearl scolds her.
"Can you shapeshift, m- Pearl ?" Alex asks her.
"Well of course..." Pearl answers smiling.
"Well, of course, I can, I'm perfect!" Amethyst says as she shape-shifts into Pearl. "WOMP! WOMP!" She says as she hit her butt.
Alex laughs at this.
Pearl looks annoyed by Amethyst." All Gems have shapeshifting powers, Alex." Pearl says as she projects a hologram." We can turn into objects, we can change parts of our bodies or... we could to that. "Pearl explains and points at Amethyst who still does the WOMP WOMP and hit her butt.
"I want to try it all!" Steven says.
"Don't bite more than you can chew, Steven. "Pearl says,
"WOMP! WOMP!" Amethyst says again as she hits her butt. Alex laughs harder.
"Ugh!" Pearl says and walks angry out of the house.
Amethyst shapeshifts back into her normal form.
"Alright! Show me how to change into a, uh, huge lion!" Steven says.
"Actually, for once Pear is right. If you're gonna do this, you've gotta start with something easy." Amethyst says.
"Like that cat, you turned into?" Steven asks.
"That sounds good. Now follow my lead. First, think of what you wanna be, and then, just shake it out. "Amethyst demonstrates for Steven. "See? Haha! Now your turn and Alex try it too." Amethyst says.
Alex rolls her eyes and walks towards them.
"Okay. Caaaat!" Steven tries it.
"Nah, you're too tense. Just relax and feel it. "Amethyst says.
"Like this?" Alex says as she shapeshifts into a wolf instead.
"How did you shapeshifted?" Steven asks her.
"I just relaxed and imagine what I wanna be," Alex says.
"Ehh, if you're not ready, we can try later. "Amethyst says to Steven.
"No, wait! I can do it." Steven tries again.
"Well, it was a good try. "Amethyst says and suddenly meowing noises come out of Steven's palm. Steven opens his palm and sees a cat finger.
Alex shapeshifts back into a human. "That's cute." She says smiling.
"That's so cool!" Steven cheers.
"You should go show it to your dad. He's gonna freak out!" Amethyst says and Steven runs out.
"Aren't you coming with him?" Amethyst asks Alex and looks at her.
"But... I don't a have a dad who I can show it to." Alex says sadly and looks away slightly.
"Well, you have us don't ya?" Amethyst says grinning.
Alex smiles. "Yes, I have you." She says.
Time skip
"Steven? Are you okay?" Alex asks him as he has trouble to hold a sandwich.
"Huh? Yes, I'm fine." He says as he hid his fingers.
"Well, see ya later then. We're taking the Gem Sloop out to sea to fight a living island." Amethyst says as she walks out,
"What? Uh, Amethyst, wait!" Steven drops his sandwich and runs out.
"Steven, wait!" Alex says as she follows him.
Outside of the house
Alex sees Steven in the water trying to catch up the Gem Sloop.
"Steven, what's going on?" Pearl asks him while Alex walks towards them,
"Waah! I-it's nothing! I-just turned all my fingers into cats!" Steven says.
"We have to stay and help Steven," Pearl tells Garnet.
"We can't. This is a tectonic emergency. "We'll deal with Steven when we get back," Garnet says.
"Amethyst, I blame YOU for this. "Pearl scold Amethyst.
"Eh, that's fair," Amethyst says.
"Wait! You're leaving me with Steven and his cat fingers? What if it gets worse?" Alex asks as she tries not to freak out.
"Just calm down you both. Everything will be alright." Pearl says as they were driving away
"You can handle this, Alex. "Garnet says.
"Great!" Alex says as they were too far away.
"Ok-" She turns around and sees Steven running into the house. "Steven!" She runs after him.
The moment she enters the house her eyes widen.
"Alex!" Steven has turned into a cat monster, thing.
"Steven? Dang, it. Let's go see your dad. He'll help us." Alex says as she helps Steven.
At Greg's Car Wash
"Uncle Greg! Uncle Greg!" Alex calls him.
"Huh? Alex? What's going oooon" Greg yells as he sees cat- Steven. "What's that?" He asks.
"That's Steven... the cats took control over him," Alex says.
"Ohh, my life is over! I can't go on magical adventures! I can't even open the fridge! And I'll never get to have another water fight with you dad! Because these things hate-" Steven cries.
"Water!" Alex exclaims." They hate water!" Alex says as she sprays him with the hose.
Then the cats run towards her and Greg.
Steven grabs the side of the car wash to stop the cats.
"It's not enough water!" Steven says. He gasps suddenly. "Turn on the superwash!" he says.
"No, I won't do it! It's too dangerous!" Greg says.
"You've got to! Alex! You've gotta do it then! I'm a monster! I'm an adorable cat monster!" Steven says.
"No! You're not. You are my son/little brother!" Alex and Greg say at the same time as they both turn on the wash.
Steven crawls in. Alex and Greg watch as Steven gets sprayed with jets from all sides. Then he goes through two waxers, and another set of jets.
"Uncle Greg. I would be better if we would take the hose. So, that we'll be ready to attack any remaining cats. "Alex suggests.
Greg nods. He and Alex both take a hose and get ready before the opening.
"Steven!" Alex says with wide eyes as Steven gets pushed out of the Car-Wash.
"Alex, Dad," Steven's clothes were all ribbed."We did it." Steven cheers slightly.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Alex asks him.
"I'm fine, I guess," Steven says and suddenly one of Steven's fingers starts to meow.
Greg and Steven scream as they see the last cat on Stevens' finger. Alex sprays Stevens' finger.
"Steven... you are not allowed to shapeshift again... at least without the other Gems." Alex scolds him. Steven nods.
"Ahh! Another night full of nightmares and no sleeping. Come on. Thanks, uncle Greg." Alex says walking back home.
Time skip
Steven and Alex are sitting on the dock.
"Steven?" Alex says."Hmm?" Steven looks at her.
"You know that I'm not your real sister, right?" Alex asks him."We may not be blood-related but for me, you are still my big sis," Steven says smiling at her.
Alex smiles slightly. "Did... the gems ever told you about my parents? Or how they found me?" She asks him.
"No, they didn't... why are you asking?" Steven wonders.
"It's just... you never met your mother but you still have your dad. And I never met my parents...so every time I see you and your dad playing together I feel...lonely." Alex says.
"But I heard you almost calling Pearl mom. A few times." Steven points out.
"Yes, it does happen. And I kinda see her and Garnet as my mothers... but what if they don't see me as their child... " Alex says looking down.
what if they only keep me here so that I could take care of you... what if I didn't have a Gem or what if my Gem would be completely useless... would they still keep me? she thinks.
"I don't think that Pearl and Garnet would mind you calling them, mom. Pearl always smiles when you almost call her that. You are a Gem .. a half-Gem just like me... so that makes us siblings." Steven says smiling.
"Look they're finally here," Alex says smiling.
"Steven!" Pearl yells as she climbs on the dock and takes his hand. "Okay, let me see it. W-? Y-you got them to go away?" Pearl says.
Steven smiles. "Yes, with the help from Alex," he says.
"I knew you could do it," Garnet says smiling at her. Alex blushes slightly.
"It just goes to show, always listen to me, and never listen to Amethyst," Pearl says angrily.
"That's fair." Amethyst shrugs.
"It goes to show, you should have a little more faith in Steven," Garnet says and Pearl blushes.
"Yeah, it almost turned into a big CAT-tastrophy!" Alex says smirking.
Amethyst and Pearl laugh sarcastically.
"But I'm feeling much better MEOW!" Steven Gem groans while Alex shudders.
"Steven, please stop meowing or I'm gonna meow tonight in my sleep," Alex says.
"Ehhh? What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?" Steven jokes again.
"Okay, that's enough," Garnet says as Alex snickers slightly.
The Gems and Alex walk away, Steven follows them.
"Wait, I've been coming up with cat jokes all morning," Steven says.
"Urgh. Yes, first I had nightmares about your cat fingers and then I have to hear him coming up with cat jokes." Alex says smirking.
"You guys, I'm FELINE fine." Steven jokes.
Alex facepalms." Steven, please." She groans.
"Everything's PURRRRFECT!" Steven jokes again catching up to her and the Gems.
"You gotta be KITTEN me?" Alex says smirking at him.
"Your cat jokes are just terrible," Amethyst says.
"Nope. They're tearable!" Alex says and laughs as the Gems groans.
"Hey, that was a good one, sis," Steven says.
"Thanks, stev," Alex says smiling.
