Insert Opening
The Gems and Alex walk towards the direction of the Beach House
"I don't think they are earthquakes, they're too frequent!" Pearl says.
Alex stares at them for a minute.
"You okay, Alex?" Garnet asks her.
"Hmm, yeah I'm fine." She says looking away again.
"You sure? You look kinda ... sad?" Pearl questions,
"Hey Look! Steven's got a bike!" Alex says ignoring the question.
"Where ya going, Steven?" Amethyst asks.
"Just out for a ride." Steven answeres,
"In the sand?" Pearl asks,
"Yup!" Steven says and drives away.
"So, back to my question, what's wrong Alex?" Pearl asks again.
"Ahh, it's nothing," Alex says as she walks faster towards the beach house.
Later in the Beach House.
Alex sits with her arm crossed.
"Alex, are you sure you're okay?" Pearl asks again.
"Yeah, I'm just wondering... where are my parents?" She asks the Gems look at each other nervously.
"You never told me how you found me... why?" Alex continues and looks at them.
"Alex, you are not ready to know that yet... maybe when you're older," Garnet says calmly.
"But.." Before Alex could say anything Steven bursts through the door.
"Whaddup'?" Steven acts casual.
"Who were you talking to?" Pearl asks.
"Huh?" Steven acts confused.
"That girl." Garnet points out.
Alex crossed her arms. They are avoiding the questions.
"You saw?" Steven asks blushing. "She's just a girl I know, except she doesn't know me. We never talked," he says.
"You like her" Amethyst gasps and smushes his face.
"Uhhh... I like Everyone..." Steven says as he pushes Amethyst's arms aside.
"Let's set up play-date! I'll write up and invitation and work out a schedule. Ohh, we'll have to find her favourite kind of tea.." Pearl says.
"No. Just talk to her," Garnet says.
"Okay. But you guys can't watch this time! It'll mess up my funky flow." Steven tells them.
"Funky flow?" Amethyst and Pearl say confused.
"We won't watch," Garnet says as she adjusts her visor.
"Aright!" Steven runs to the fridge and takes out a glowing bracelet.
"What's that?" Amethyst asks.
"Nothing!" Steven shouts as he runs outside.
Alex looks at them angry.
"Why are you avoiding my questions?" Alex asks the Gems.
"Alex... I already told you that we will answer all your questions. When you're older." Garnet says softly.
"But why? What's so terrible about me that you are so afraid to tell me?" Alex says with tears in her eyes.
"Alex..." Pearl says putting her hand on Alex's shoulder.
"Forget it," Alex says as she pushes Pearl hand away and walks towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Pearl asks.
Alex doesn't answer she just walks outside without looking at the Gems.
Time skip.
Alex walks through the city. "What are they hiding from me?" she asks quietly.
Suddenly she sees Steven and some girl trapped inside a bubble.
Sadie is attempting to break the bubble while Lars makes fun of Steven.
"Steven?" Alex says as she wipes off her tears and runs towards them, "What's going on here?" Alex asks.
"Uh. You brother came here inside this bubble and apparently he doesn't know how to get out of there. So I'm trying to help him." Sadie says.
"He made this magic love bubble because he's in looove." Lars mocks Steven and makes kiss noises.
"Stop that, you idiot!" Alex snaps at him as she pushes him away from the bubble.
"Ahh, this is my big sister, Alex," Steven says to Connie.
"You have a sister?" Connie asks.
"We aren't blood-related and that's what bothers her sometimes. But I don't care she is my sister who takes care of me." He says grinning.
"Hey, Alex!" Steven calls her.
"How did you get inside a bubble?!" Alex shouts.
"I don't know!" He shouts back.
"Alex! This is Connie!" Steven introduces Connie to Alex.
"Nice to meet you, Connie!" Alex says smiling at her.
"Nice to meet you too, Alex!" Connie says.
"Alex is also a half gem like me. Oh! Alex, can you try to open this thing with your weapon?" Steven asks her.
"What? Are you crazy? You want me to cut you in half?" Alex yells at him angrily.
"Please!" He begs her.
"Urgh,.. okay... Lars would you stop acting like an idiot!" Alex snaps at him.
"I'm not acting like an idiot! I'm helping your brother on his date." Lars argues.
"You're embarrassing him!" Sadie argues with Lars.
"No, I'm not!" Lars yells.
"Yes, you are!" Sadie yells back.
"I'm going to try something else!" Sadie says as she goes inside the Big Donut.
Then Sadie comes running out of the Big Donut with a stool and hits the bubble with the chair. But it didn't help.
Alex rolls her eyes and summons her hits the bubble but it didn't break,
"What is this thing made of?" Alex wonders putting her weapon away.
"I have a better idea," Steven says with a nervous chuckle. He and Connie walk away with the Bubble.
"Your brother is having fun on his first date," Lars says laughing.
"Keep on laughing and you are going to miss a few of your teeth, Lars!" Alex says angrily at him."Anyway, Thanks for your help, Sadie," Alex says as she follows Steven.
"Where is he? How can he always disappear?" She asks as she walks on the Pier.
She sees Onion shoots a harpoon gun at the bubble but the harpoon deflects and hits another boat. Alex stands there frozen before running up to them.
"What were you thinking?!" She yells at Steven and Connie through the bubble.
"Alex! Can you call Garnet, Pearl and Amethyst?!" Steven asks her. Alex looks at him quietly and shrugs.
She watches him and Connie walk away with the bubble.
Should I go and call them? NO, I don't need their help! Alex thinks and shakes her head. She tries to follow Steven, Connie and their bubble.
"Why is he in Funland?" Alex asks confused and then she saw a monster trying to attack them on top of the roller coaster.
"Steven!" Alex shouts as her gem and her left eyes starting to glow.
She summons her weapons and rushed up there and stops the Monster from hitting them.
"You see? She is very strong!" Steven says smiling to Connie.
Suddenly Mr Smileys hits the emergency brake and the bubble flies off the track into the ocean.
"Steven! Connie!" Alex shouts as she run towards the ocean.
Damit! I should have called the Gems sooner... who cares about my feelings? Alex thinks as she runs towards the Beach house.
She bursts through the door.
"Alex? What's wrong?" Pearl asks her putting her hands on her shoulder.
"Steven is trapped inside some pink bubble and this bubble is on the Ocean floor and a Corrupted Gem attacks them," Alex tells them with panic in her voice.
"Where?" Garnet asks her.
"At the Funland," Alex says.
The gems and Alex run towards the Funland.
As they arrive there, they notice Steven and Connie out off their bubble, The Funland,'s Pier collapsed and the Gem poofed.
"What?" Alex says confused.
"Steven!" The Gems yell as they run to them.
"Steven, what's going on?! What did you do?!" Pearl says accusingly.
"He was incredible!" Connie cheers.
Garnet picks up and bubbles away, the poofed Gem.
"Really? You mean it?" Steven asks and Connie nods." Here's your bracelet... again."
"Thanks." Connie laughs.
Alex stands there and shakes her head as she sees Amethyst and Pearl teasing Steve.
She feels Garnet putting her hand on her shoulder. "You okay?" She asks her softly.
Alex smiles up to her. "I'm fine..." She says and looks down.
"Garnet?" Alex asks suddenly.
"Hmm?"
"I know that you take care of Steven cause you were friends with his mom. But why are you taking care of me? Is this because I have a Gem?" Alex asks her.
"Alex... do you really think that we only taking care of you because you have a Gem?" Garnet asks her surprised.
Alex looks away sadly.
Garnet kneels in front of her and puts her hands on Alexs shoulders. "Alex, we care about you. We don´t care if you are a Gem or a Human...the only advantage of you being a Gem is that you can go on missions with us. But even if you wouldn´t have a Gem...we would still care for you the same way we do now. You are a Crystal Gem with or without a Gem." She tells her gently.
Alex nods blushing and with a small smile.
Garnet ruffles her hair before picking up Pearl and Amethyst. "Hey! Don't mess with his funky flow." She scolds then and walks away with them.
"Funky... flow?" Connie asks confused.
"Don't pay attention to it...anyway. I'm Alex, it's nice to meet you." Alex says smiling brightly.
"I'm Connie, nice to meet you too. But we have introduced each other, already." Connie says.
"Yeah, but it was kinda strange. I hope we gonna be good friends." Alex says.
"You want to be friends with me?" Connie asks surprised.
"Every friend of Steven is also a friend of mine," Alex tells her smiling.
