Gem Love and Adventure chapter 4

Homeworld

At the Diamond Headquarters on Homeworld there was a Gem patrolling the halls of Homeworld as the Gem was Soren Spessartine who was a part of the Rebellion, the Crystal Gems once before believing they were all wiped out by Homeworld, which lead to him joining Homeworld in order to avoid getting shattered, as while patrolling halls he then sighed and said to himself.

"I can't believe I have to patrol the halls again, it's like this almost everyday." After saying that he then looked at the ground and then said. "I just wish to be back with the rebellion again." As soon as he said that while he was walking he then began hearing talking and became curious of what it was as he began to head towards a doorway as he began to listen closely noticing it was two Gems speaking as they were each saying.

"Hey did you here the news?"

"No, what's the news?"

As they were talking Soren then began to listen closely as he then heard them then say. "The Rebellion back on Planet Earth might be alive."

"They are, but I thought they were gone after the war was over?"

When the Gem said that, Soren then became surprised as he then began to smile as he was glad that to find out that the rebellion were possibly alive, which also means that the leader has to be alive as well, as he was smiling he thoughts were then interrupted by Peridot who was in Limb-Enhancers as she said. "Soren what are you doing?!"

Once she asked Soren then snapped out of his thought and then said. "Oh, uh Peridot, I was just patrolling the halls like the Diamonds told me too, when Soren said that, Peridot then nodded looking at him suspiciously as she then said.

"Okay, but your going to need to stop right now, the Diamonds need you right now and it's important that you go immediately."

When Peridot said that, Soren then nodded to her and began to make his way towards the Diamonds room where all three of the Diamonds are at right now as after a few minutes Soren made it to the place where the Diamonds are at as once he made it there he then began to head inside of the Diamonds room and began seeing the three Diamonds and their Pearl's along with the Gem Jasper as they were all waiting for Soren to arrive to them.

As once Soren arrived he then began looking up at the Diamonds as he then asked. "Diamonds I'm here, I was asked to come here by Peridot, is there something wrong?"

When he asked that Yellow Diamond then began looking at him as she then said to him. "There is something wrong Soren, we have you, our Pearl's and Jasper here to give you all the news that the Crystal Gems and Crystal Gem Leader Pearl, of the Planet, Earth might be alive, possibly along with the Leader and the first born gem might still be alive too."

As once Soren arrived he then began looking up at the Diamonds as he then asked. "Diamonds I'm here, I was asked to come here by Peridot, is there something wrong?"

When Yellow Diamond said that, the Pearl's and Jasper then looked surprised or shocked that the Rebellion are still alive as when they were surprised, except for Soren who saw the Pearl's and Jasper surprised and shocked pretended to be surprised as he then said. "Wow, that's surprising news. Is there anything else?"

Once he asked that the leader of Homeworld then shook her head no as she then said. "That's all, for now, we are planning to have you and some others to soon be sent to Earth to stop the Rebellion from protecting the Earth any longer and to get the first born Gem, if the first born Gem is alive you will get her and bring her to me, as for right now, go back to patrolling the halls and will make sure to get you when it's time."

After saying that Soren then nodded and began to make his way out of the Diamond room as once he was out and away from the door he then took a deep breath and then gave a smile as he then said. "Okay, now that's done I can now try to find a way off this place and head back to Earth to rejoin the team."

As Soren said that, he then began walking towards where the Escape Pods and ships are at, which are going to be tricky as the room filled with ships and Escape Pods was heavily guarded with security as it's hard to escape but Soren was going to take the chances and try his best to get to an Escape Pod to escape without alerting anyone or anything in the room, as while Soren began to make his way to where the Pods and ships are at, he then began hearing running and then stopped.

When Soren stopped he then began looking back and began seeing what appeared to be Blue Pearl running towards him as he stopped as Blue Pearl then said.

"Soren, wait!" As Blue Pearl said that Soren then began turning around and began standing where he stopped at as he waited for Blue Pearl to make it to him, once she did she then looked at Soren as he then asked.

"Yeah Blue Pearl?" When Soren asked Blue Pearl then said.

"I know your leaving to go back to Earth to see if you can rejoin the rebellion if they're alive. And I want to help you escape to get there...Can I?"

When Blue Pearl said that as she began to give a small smile, Soren then looked Blue Pearl with a smile appearing on his face as he then said with a nod. "Sure Blue Pearl, you are the only Gem I known that's nicest around here, and what your going to be doing for me is the nicest thing to do for anyone like me." When Soren said that, Blue Pearl then smiled as she began walking in front of Soren as she grabbed him by the arm gently and said.

"Thanks Soren, now follow me, I'll lead you to the armory room, that's where all the Escape Pods are at." As she said that Soren then nodded to her and began following her as they make it towards the armory room where Soren must get to as Blue Pearl's helping him, as after a few minutes they got to the room as they began to look inside of the room carefully.

As both Blue Pearl and Soren looked inside the room carefully they were able to see all of the Ships and Escape Pods that were in the room as not only that there was also a few large, medium and small boxes that were weapons and other things that are suppose to be deported to other parts of Homeworld that need it as while Soren and Blue Pearl looked inside Blue Pearl then spotted a Escape Pod all the way at the end on the left part of the room as she smiled and said quietly as Soren listened to Blue Pearl and looked at the Escape Pod she points at.

"Look Soren, that looks like the right Escape Pod to use to escape, from the looks of it it's less guarded out of all the others, it should be possibly easy for you get to as long as you stay in the dark and out of sight." After Blue Pearl finished, Soren then nodded to her and then said.

"Got it, thank you Blue Pearl, wait, your not coming with?"

As soon as he asked Blue Pearl then nodded and then said to him. "I can't, Blue Diamonds expecting me to be back soon, if I leave with you, she'll become suspicious from my absence and will possibly soon know that I left Homeworld and will have a few Homeworld ships chase after us, it's best for me to stay here to make that doesn't happen."

After she told Soren that he then nodded understanding that's true before saying. "Okay, but thank you for leading me here Blue Pearl and for the advice where to go to." When Soren said that, Blue Pearl then said to him.

"Welcome Soren, I'll possibly see you and the team soon by any chance."

When she said that she then began leaving back to her Diamond to as Soren smiled and then nodded before he looked inside the Armory room and began to go inside and make his way into the room quietly and began to sneak his way towards the Escape Pod without being spotted, but unaware to him he didn't know that one Gem has already spotted him when he began making it to the room as the Gem was Peridot.

As Peridot was making her way to the door she then began looking inside as she began to look around inside as she then said to herself. "Okay, where are you?" When Peridot said that she then began to keep looking before seeing Soren as he was in the shadows of the room sneaking his way towards the Pod as Peridot continued watching.

While Soren was getting to Pod still unseen he then began looking and saw how close he was getting to the Pod as he smiled and then said. "Yes, I'm almost there, just a few more feet and I should be able to use it to Escape this horrible place called Homeworld." As Soren said that it then took him a few minutes before he finally made it to the Escape Pod unseen by the Gems inside the room as he began to get inside of the Escape Pod.

Once Soren got inside of the Pod he then smiled and said. "Yes, now that I'm inside of the Escape Pod I can send it coordinates to the Planet Earth, after that I just have to wait until I get there and then when I land I'll go and search for the team, if they're possibly alive and around the Earth still?" As Soren said that he then began typing in the Coordinates to Earth, but as he did that Peridot began to watch him closely as she then said.

"Why is he in that Escape Pod? Wait...He wouldn't." As soon as Peridot said that the Escape Pod then began starting as Soren who was inside then began smiling as he began sitting back as the Escape Pod began aiming itself to where the Earth is at before seconds later blasting off towards the Planet Earth as while he blasted off Peridot then began looking mad as she then said.

"That traitor, he's not going to get away with this, I need to follow him and then bring him and possibly the Leader, the first born Gem and the team back to Homeworld to where the Diamonds are at, but how?" When Peridot asked that she then began to look around before stopping as soon as she saw a ship that she can take to go after Soren

When Peridot saw the ship she wants to take she was able to see that it was a one-seated ship which she can be able to use as she's allowed to use any of the ships to transport herself or anything she's carrying to the parts of Homeworld that are far, as when she saw the ship she then began smiling as she said. "It's perfect." When Peridot said that she then began to head towards the ship she's taking for herself.

Once Peridot made it to the ship she's taking she then began to make her way towards the entrance as she began to open it before getting inside of it as once Peridot got inside she then began to turn on the ship as she began to grin as the ship began to activate, once it was starting to float off the ground a little bit she then said. "Good, now that this is working I can follow him as he makes his way towards Earth, but just in case."

As Peridot said that she then began to press a button on the ship as the entire ship began to wave as it started becoming invisible of camouflage as once it was invisible Peridot then began smiling as she started to fly off from the room of ships and Escape Pods as she started to fly after Soren as she was behind him, while she followed him, Soren who was in the Escape Pod then began pressing a few buttons making sure the Pod stays locked on the location of Earth.

While Soren was doing that he then began to smile and lay back as he said. "Now that everything's set, I can now wait until this Escape Pod gets to Earth." As Soren said that he then began to relax while waiting to make it to the Earth as while he was doing that he was unaware of Peridot following him from behind disguised as the air, sky and atmosphere around her and the ship as she followed Soren back to Earth.

Meanwhile on Earth

Back at the Beach House on Earth everyone who were inside of the Beach House for a moment were doing different things together as Steven was with Lapis as they were watching a show together, as Pearl, Onyx and Jewel were having a family conversation together as they're happy to be one family again, Garnet was reading a newspaper smiling as she was able to see no attacks or anything bad occurring as Amethyst was in the kitchen eating one of her sandwiches that she likes.

As while the Crystal Gems were all doing different things, Amethyst who was in the kitchen eating then began to look at everyone and began noticing something, Steven has Lapis, Pearl was with her husband and daughter and Garnet, well, was with herself as she's a fusion, which made Amethyst notice that she's the only Gem that doesn't have anyone to love as after she found out she then began to stop eating for a moment and began to place a elbow onto the table as she began thinking as while she was thinking she then said to herself.

"Oh man, I can't believe I just realized that I'm the only one that doesn't have a lover." As Amethyst said that she then let out a sigh as she began to look back down at her sandwich she has as she began to take another bite of it before thinking as she then said to herself humming. "Hm...Maybe it's time for me to go out and find a lover? Yeah, that way I won't be alone, if I find the right Gem that loves me as I'll love him then..."

Before Amethyst could finish she and the others then stopped doing what they were doing as they felt a Earthquake happening as they began to either hold onto each other, hold a nearby walls or try their best to stand as best as possible as after a few seconds the Gems then gasped as they saw what looked like a large ball coming down from Earth before landing into the ocean water nearby the Beach House where Steven and the team were as after that happened Steven asked.

"Whoa what was that thing?"

Once Steven asked that curiously Pearl then began to summon her Spear as she then said. "I don't really know Steven, but by all guesses, this looks like something sent from Homeworld, possibly a Homeworld Gem, we all need to get ready." As Pearl said that, Steven and the others then nodded as they began to get ready as they summoned weapons they need to help them during battle.

When Pearl and her team have summoned all of their weapons Pearl then began to head towards the door of the Beach House before opening it as when she opened it she then looked back at the team and her Husband and Daughter before saying. "Come on everyone, we have to stop that thing that came from Homeworld."

When Pearl said that the team then nodded as she ran forward and jumped off the porch and onto the sand of the beach as the Crystal Gems either did the same thing or walked down the stairs or flew off from the porch as once they were on the sand of the beach they then began to make there way towards the area of the Beach that's closest to where the thing landed at as once they made it there they then stopped before Pearl said to them.

"Keep your eyes open everyone that thing could be coming out of nowhere from the ocean or the beach itself." When Pearl told them that they all then nodded and began searching as they split up as Onyx and Jewel were with Pearl, Steven was with Lapis as both Garnet and Amethyst split up alone as while they were searching Amethyst who was by herself then spotted something emerging from the water nearby where she's at as she then shouted.

"Hey everyone over here I think I found it!" When Amethyst shouted that to the leader and the others, Pearl and the others, Onyx, Jewel, Steven, Lapis and Garnet then arrived as they began seeing the thing emerge from the water as once it was out the team were then able to see that it was a Escape Pod as it was walking out of the ocean as it then stopped as the window part of the pod began to move as if it was looking around for something.

As it was doing that Steven then asked curiously. "Guys, what is that thing?" When he asked that Onyx then looked at Steven while holding his Sword as he then said.

"Even though it's been a long time since I was trapped in that prison, that's a Escape Pod Steven, but it's different from the ones I've seen back long ago." As Onyx told Steven that, Steven then nodded as Pearl began to summon another Spear as she then said.

"And there's a Homeworld Gem inside of it, it's probably here to get us and my daughter Jewel, I'm not going to let another Gem take away anyone of the team or my family again." As Pearl said that she then aimed and threw one of her Spear's at the Escape Pod piercing it as it began to stumble from the hit of the Spear as when it did that Pearl then said. "Everyone prepare yourself, we need to take it down before the Gem can call for backup."

When Pearl said that, her family and Crystal Gems then nodded as they began getting ready as once the Escape Pod began to regain balance it then began to turn around and begin facing them before Garnet blasted one of her Gauntlets at the Pod making a dent appear on it's shell causing it to back up from the it before Onyx attacked as he threw his Sword at the Pod making it lose balance again as it tried to regain it before Jewel ran forward and then swung her Sword at the Pod.

When Jewel did that the Escape Pod then fell back and began spinning around in a circle from the hit as it did that the team then began to watch for a moment before it stopped as once it did that they then began waiting for the pod to get up as once it did, just in a few seconds it then began to have steam come out of it as it began laying on the sand before shutting down as it was too damaged to continue on, once it stopped Pearl then looked at the Gems before saying as she gestured her hand.

"Follow me everyone, we need to proceed with caution, there's no telling if the Gem will attack as soon as it leaves the Pod." Once Pearl said that they then looked at each other before Jewel said with a smile and a nod.

"Got it mom." After saying that they then began walking slowly towards the Escape Pod as while walking towards it Pearl then stopped as the others did too as they began hearing a steam like sound come from the Pod, as they began looking closely they then saw the window of the pod open. As they saw it they then began seeing a figure begin to come out of the Pods window sticking their hand out first before pulling out of the Escape before landing down onto the sandy floor as when the Gem began sitting up, Pearl and the others then began getting closer to the Gem as it was hard for her and the others to find out who the Gem is due to all the smoke coming from the broken Escape Pod.

Once they were close to the Gem Pearl then pointed her Spear at the Gem who began looking up at the weapon she has at it as Pearl then asked. "Don't move, who are you?" As soon as Pearl said that the smoke then began to clear up revealing the Gem as once the Gem was revealed, Pearl along with Onyx, Jewel, Lapis and Garnet then began changing expression to surprised or shocked as the Gem they were able to see was Soren Spessartine as he began seeing who they are.

When Soren's eyesight became clear he then noticed the Leader of the Rebellion/Crystal Gems, Pearl and her family, Onyx and Jewel along with the remaining team which are some of them he knows who are Steven Lapis, Amethyst, and Garnet as he then said in surprise. "My Pearl, Onyx, Jewel, Lapis, Garnet, is that really you guys?" When Soren asked that Pearl, Onyx, Jewel, Lapis and Garnet then smiled and nodded as Pearl then said.

"It is us, but please there's no need to call me that, just call me Pearl, and it's been a long time since we saw you ever since the Gem war back 5,000 years ago." When Pearl said that Soren then nodded with a smile as Steven began tapping the side of Pearl's hip as she looked at Steven as he asked.

"Pearl who is this Gem?" When Steven asked that curiously Amethyst then nodded as she then asked.

"Yeah and how do you and the others know him?"

When she asked Pearl then smiled and began to she clear her throat before saying to them with a smile. "Well I'm glad you two asked that, Steven, Amethyst, this Gem here is Soren Spessartine, he's one of the first Gems to join in the Rebellion about 5,000 years ago, not only that, he was our friends." As Pearl said that she then began to become curious as she then said. "Wait, what happened to you Soren? We thought you were captured, or worst...Shattered."

After Pearl finished her sentence she, and the others began looking at Soren who then looked at the sandy beach ground he was sitting on when he got out of the Escape Pod before saying. "It's a long story, but to put it short, back long ago when I couldn't find you guys I thought you the entire team were either taken or wiped out from Homeworld itself and I thought I was the last one." As Soren told the team they then began to listen closely as Soren continued.

"I pleaded with the Diamonds to work for Homeworld to avoid shattering or prisoning, and it worked, I was working for Homeworld for about as long as I remember but then hours ago on Homeworld when I was patrolling the halls of the Diamond base I heard two Gems talking about you all possibly still being alive and protecting Earth, so after a Diamond meeting I went too, I snuck my way into a ships and Escape Pods room and used a Escape Pod to escape Homeworld undetected, it took hours for me to get here, and after landing in the water, coming to shore, before you attacked the Pod I was in, here we are talking to each other."

As Soren had finished telling the team what happened they, mostly Pearl, Jewel, Onyx, Lapis and Garnet then began looking surprised of what had happened to Soren when he thought the team were gone long ago as they along with the leader, Pearl then understood that what Soren did was the only way for him to stay alive, as after that Pearl then walked over to Soren and began lending a hand to him which Soren noticed as Pearl said.

"Soren, me, Onyx, Jewel, Lapis and Garnet understand what you've been through, and we're sorry you had to go through all that in order to live, but don't worry, your back here now." As Pearl said that she then said. "And now that your back you can rejoin the team if you want to."

When Pearl asked that holding her hand out for Soren, Soren then began to look at her hand before looking at Onyx and then Jewel, Lapis, and Garnet, before he began to grab onto Pearl's hand as she began to help him up to his feet as once Soren was on his feet he then smiled and then said. "Thank you, Pearl."

As Soren said that Pearl along with, Onyx, Jewel, Lapis and Garnet were glad to have a old friend of theirs who is Soren, to rejoin the team again as when Soren smiled, he then stopped and began looking at both Amethyst and Steven as when he did he then asked Pearl and the others minus Steven and Amethyst as he said confused. "Pearl, Onyx, Jewel, Lapis, Garnet, who are those two? Are they a part of the Crystal Gems?"

When Soren asked that, Pearl then began looking behind her, seeing Steven and Amethyst as she then looked back at Soren as she then smiled and then nodded as she said. "Yes, they are part of the team Soren, and I'm glad you asked about them." When Pearl said that she then began to walk over to Steven first as she then went down on one knee and began placing her hand around Stevens shoulders as she then said. "This is Steven, Soren he's a kid that's half-Gem and half-human."

Once Pearl said that, Soren then looked surprised after hearing what Pearl had said and then said. "Wait, Steven's half-Gem and half-human?" When he asked, Pearl and the others then looked at Steven before looking Soren as they and Steven nodded to him as Soren walked to Steven getting the note as he said, handing him the note.

When he asked, Pearl and the others then looked at Steven before looking at Soren as they and Steven nodded to him as Soren walked to Steven as he said, holding his hand out.

"It's nice to meet you Steven." As Soren said that, Steven then smiled and then grabbed Soren's hand and began shaking it smiling, after that Soren then began to look over at Amethyst as he then asked curiously. "And who's this Gem?"

When Soren asked that as he looked at Amethyst, Amethyst then began to look at Soren too as she began to blush a slight tint of dark purple as Pearl then said. "This is Amethyst, Soren, she's a Gem that joined the team after the war that was 5,000 years ago, and she can be very helpful with her weapon that she has."

When Pearl said that Soren then smiled and nodded as he began looking at Amethyst with a smile as she began to smile a bit too, after that Pearl then began walking towards where the Beach House is at as she began to look back at the Crystal Gems before saying with a smile. "Come on everyone, let's go back for Jewel's Birthday Party."

Once Pearl said that the Crystal Gems then began to nod with a smile as they began to follow Pearl back to the Beach as while they did that Onyx looked at Soren confused of why he's not following them as he stopped and then said to him. "Come on Soren, just follow us and will bring you back to the Temple, where we have Jewel's Birthday party set up."

When Onyx said that, Soren then smiled and nodded as he began to follow them back to the temple where the redo of Jewel's Birthday party is at as it was outside near the Beach House, the reason it's a redo is because Pearl and Jewel want to show what a birthday is and all.

As the Crystal Gems began to head back to the Beach House where the redo of Jewel's Birthday Party is setup as while walking Soren who was following them then began to walk by Amethyst as while he walked by Amethyst, she then began to look up and noticed Soren was aside her while they and the others continued walking as when she began looking at Soren she then began blushing again as she thought to herself. 'Why am I blushing everytime I look at Soren?'

In a few minutes the Crystal Gems have then made it back to Jewel's Birthday Party as they were outside where it was set up as they were going to enjoy their time together outside, as outside Pearl was having a nice conversation with her husband and daughter Onyx and Jewel as she was happy the family is back in one as while in the conversation, both Pearl and Onyx then noticed that Jewel was beginning to head towards the stairs of the Beach House as Pearl then asked curiously.

"Jewel why are you going back to that Beach House?" When Pearl asked that Jewel who was about to go up the stairs then looked back at her mom and then began to smile as she said.

"I'm just, going to get something real quick, I'll be right back as soon as I'm done." When Jewel said that, Pearl then smiled and then nodded to her daughter as Jewel began to head upstairs of the Beach House before opening the door to it as she entered the Beach House as the door closed behind her, as it did Pearl and Onyx then began to have conversation together while they waited for their daughter to come back.

As Pearl and Onyx were talking to one another, Garnet was leaning against the wall of the Temple as she was smiling enjoying the view of the ocean and sky itself as while she was doing that, both Soren and Amethyst were both together on the beach both staying silence not knowing what to say to each other as they stood quiet for a few seconds before Soren held out his hand to Amethyst as he then said. "Hi, Amethyst, I'm Soren."

When he said that, Amethyst then looked at Soren's hand and began to hold out hers as she began to grab onto Soren's as they began shake hands as she said. "Hi Soren, it's nice to meet you." After she said that both her and Soren then stopped and began staying silent again as they didn't know what else to say before Amethyst noticed that Soren's Gem was nowhere to be seen as she then became confused and curious as she then asked. "Where's your Gem at?"

After Amethyst asked that Soren then began to look at Amethyst before smiling as he was glad she asked as he then said. "Oh, it's right here, see?" As Soren asked that he began to open his mouth and began letting his tongue stick out showing Amethyst his Gem as it was in the center of his mouth of his tongue as when he showed it to Amethyst she then began to look at it in amazement as she then smiled and then said to Soren.

"Oh dude that's cool that your Gem is in your mouth, you don't have to worry about anything trying to shatter your Gem." After Amethyst said that smiling Soren then began to smile to before becoming curious of where Amethyst's Gem is at as he wasn't able to see where it was as he then looked at Amethyst and then asked curiously and confused.

"Where's your gem Amethyst?"

When Soren asked that, he then began noticing that Amethyst started blushing as her face nearly looked like a dark purple as she never thought he would ask her that, when Amethyst began blushing she then looked away for a moment before grabbing the neck rim of her tank top as she then said. "It's uh...Right here."

As she said that she then pulled it down and began showing Soren her Gem that's in the area where her chest cavity is at as when she showed it to Soren, he began to look closely at it going down on one knee as he then examined it before smiling as he said. "Wow, your Gem look amazing, and the texture of it looks smooth." When he finished his sentence he then lifted up a hand and began placing his finger onto Amethyst's Gem.

When Soren did that he then began dragging his finger down on Amethyst's Gem feeling it's texture as it was defiantly smooth, but after he did that, he then became confused as he noticed Amethyst began to shiver as she gave a slight moan before realizing that she did that because he was sliding his finger on her Gem as he then stopped and brought his hand away from her Gem as he then asked her confused and curious. "Are you okay Amethyst?"

When Soren asked that Amethyst then let go of her top letting cover her Gem again, realizing what she just did as she blushed again before saying. "I'm okay, it, just felt good when you brushed your finger on my Gem, sorry." When Amethyst told Soren said that he then became surprised as he never thought a Gem can feel good from something or someone touching their Gem as he then said.

"It's okay Amethyst, what you did wasn't anything wrong, it's a natural thing that happens." After Soren said that, Amethyst then began to smile before she and Soren began to go into a conversation together as they were starting to begin to get along, but while they did that Steven and Lapis who were close to the Beach House were talking to one another as while talking Lapis then said to Steven. "And Steven, thank you again, for saving me from the mirror I was trapped in."

When Lapis said that she and Steven then began to smile at each other as Steven then said to Lapis. "Welcome Lapis, and thank you for becoming my Gf, I love you Lapis, and I'll make sure nothing bad never happens to you, I promise." When Steven said that, he and Lapis then began to look at each other as Lapis began to have a blush appear on her as they gave each other a small smile, as they did they then close in ready to go into a kiss, but before they could do that a explosion went off.

During the explosion Steven immediately closed his eyes as he felt something hug him close, after the explosion was done, Steven began to open his eyes he then saw Lapis, holding him as she covered him from the blast with not just her body but also her water wings too that she summoned as she was out cold from the explosion, as she's out cold Steven then began holding her as he began to make his Gem glow as he put himself and Lapis in a pink bubble.

but while he did he and the team, except Jewel and Lapis, then looked up at the direction of where the explosion came from as they saw what appeared to be a ship coming out from behind the clouds that looked to be able to only carry one person like the Escape Pod Soren was in, when the ships nose began pointing down Steven, Pearl, Onyx, Soren, Amethyst, Garnet, were able to see who was attacking them as it was Peridot who was in her Limb-Enhancers controlling the ship.

As Peridot's in the ship she's controlling she began chuckling as she then said to the team who were outside.

"I knew it, I knew you were going to come back to the Crystal Gems and betray Homeworld!" When Peridot said that with a grin knowing that Soren was going to do that she began to leave the ship and land feet first onto the sand, standing under the ship she's controlling as it's still flying, as Pearl and Onyx then began to look at each other before Soren as Pearl then asked him.

"Soren did you know she was going to be following you back here?"

When Pearl asked, Soren then looks at her and Onyx and shook no as he then said to them while looking back at Peridot. "No I didn't, she must of camouflaged the ship she's in when she began to follow me here?" When Soren said that Peridot heard him and then said smiling.

"That's right, thanks to you Soren I was able to find everyone of the Crystal Gems here, now that your all here I can take you all out and bring you back to Homeworld to the Diamonds myself!" When Peridot said that she then began to get ready to attack the team as she began turn her ship that's above her to attack mode as two blasters came out from the sides of the ship as when Pearl saw this she then summons her Spear as she looks at the others and said.

"Get your weapons ready everyone, she's going to attack." When Pearl said that to the team except her daughter and Lapis, the team then nodded as Steven kept the bubbled up to protect him and Lapis who's still out cold, while Onyx began summoning his Sword, Garnet summoned his Gauntlets, and Amethyst summoned her Whip, but when Amethyst summoned her Whip, Soren then opens his mouth revealing his Gem.

As his Gem glowed he then began to summon his weapon which is a Sword, into his hands as when he did that Amethyst then looked at his Sword, amazed as she then said. "Whoa dude, that's cool." When she said that, Soren then smiled at her before Peridot began to attack as she said, "Now stand still!"

When Peridot said that she then began to attack the team with the blasters on her ship she was controlling as Pearl the leader and her team began trying their best to block out all of the blast attacks as best as possible against Peridot as Pearl used her Spear to block out some of the blasts that came to her as while she began getting openings to attack Peridot's ship she began charging her Spear before blasting a plasma at the ship Peridot's controlling.

When she did that it doesn't do any necessary damage to the ship Peridot's controlling as while Pearl continued blocking, Onyx began to block as well as he was using his Sword to reflect each blast coming towards him s he also dodged the ones he couldn't reflect in time, while doing that Soren and Amethyst were both using their Whip or Sword to slice or break apart the blasts that're coming to them as some of the Gems were getting some damaged from the attacks Peridot was giving them from the ship she's controlling as while she was doing that Steven was doing all his best to keep his bubble up as he looks at Lapis who's still out cold and asked worried.

"Come on, please Lapis, please wake up, we need you, I need you." When Steven said that he then began hugging Lapis close to him as he hoped for her to wake up, which happened as Lapis gave a groan as Steven stopped hugging when he noticed the groan as Lapis was beginning to wake up, as she was waking up Steven then began smile seeing his Gf wake up as he began hugging her again before saying.

"Lapis I'm so happy your okay." When Steven said that happily, Lapis then began to stir before shaking her head as she began to look at Steven as she gasped and began hugging Steven as she then asked in a very worried tone.

"Steven are you hurt, are you okay, did Peridot hurt you?" When Lapis asked looking at Steven after the hug, Steven then shook his head no to Lapis with a smile as he then said too her.

"I'm okay Lapis, Peridot didn't hurt me with any explosion or blasts, but me and the others need your help they're getting hurt by Peridot from her controlling that ship and Jewel didn't come back out of the Beach House yet to help, we need your help." As Steven said that, Lapis then looks up to where the ship is and then began to look down to where Peridot's standing at as she sees the ships above her as she then looked at the ocean she begins smiling having a idea before saying to Steven.

"Don't worry Steven I got this, you can get rid of the bubble now." When Lapis said that smiling Steven then smiles and nods as he began to make his bubble vanish around them as when Steven did that Lapis then began to walk over to ocean before stopping as she began to lift her hand up in the air as her Gem was beginning to glow a bright blue as while doing that, Peridot who's firing at the team as her ship's almost close to her as she was making it go down a bit for better aim then said.

"Die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die!" As she shouted that she was unaware of the water that's rising right behind her and the ship from Lapis who was controlling the ocean water as when the water's above Peridot and her ship from behind, Peridot then began noticing the shadow of the ocean itself and became confused before looking up seeing the water in the shape of a hand as she said. "Uh-oh, this isn't good."

When Peridot said that she then began to look down at the control panel in her Limb Enhancer arm as she immediately began pressing a button on the panel that's called, 'Backup' as it was both Yellow and Blue Pearl she called backup for that were back on Homeworld, after she hit the button Lapis then made the water slam down onto the ship crushing it as during the process of crushing the ship, it went down onto Peridot, but mostly her Limb Enhancers as they were broken during the crushing.

After that was done, Lapis then began to make the water she was controlling returned back into the ocean as after the water was back, Pearl, Onyx, Steven, Lapis, Soren, Amethyst and Garnet then looked and were able to see Peridot laying on the sand of the beach in front of the rubble of the ship with her Limb Enhancers around her but not connected to her true arms and legs as when they saw her laying on the Beach floor Pearl then looked at he team and her husband and then said.

"Come on everyone we need to stop her." After saying that the team then nodded to Pearl as they got ready, but as they did Jewel who was in the Beach House then began to leave through the door as she began looking from the porch to see what her Mom, Dad and the others were doing before seeing her parents and the team running towards the broken ship as she looked confused before asking.

"Mom, Dad what are you and the others-" Before Jewel finishes her sentence she then saw that they were charging at Peridot who was on the ground as she then gasped and then jumped and landed in front of Peridot in time as she then said. "Mom, Dad, everyone stop!" When she said that, Pearl, Onyx, and the others then stopped as soon as Jewel told them all to as she then said to them as she is protecting Peridot.

"What are you all trying to do to her?" When Jewel asked that while looking back at Peridot who was laying on the beach looking to be out-cold as Jewel looked back at her parents and the others as Pearl looked at her and then said.

"We're trying to stop Peridot, she tried to poof all of us with the ship she had until Lapis broke it, we need to poof bubble her just to make sure she's not able to do all this again."

When Pearl said that Jewel then shook her head no to her Mom and the others as she then said. "There's no reason to do that to her, look at Peridot now." As Jewel said that she then moved out of the way a little bit letting her parents and the others see Peridot as they saw that she was out-cold on the sand as her Limb-Enhancers were both broken and fried as Jewel then said to them. "she's defenseless and her Limb-Enhancers are destroyed there's no reason to bubble her."

"But she knocked Lapis out-cold and tried to poof us so she can take us back to Homeworld for the Diamonds, if she saw you and found out your the first born Gem she would of taken you back to Homeworld too." As Pearl said that Jewel then shook her head no to her mother as she then said to her.

"She wouldn't of done any of that to all of us, plus she could've been following orders from the Diamonds that she didn't want to do, but had to because she didn't want to be prisoned, shattered or anything." After Jewel finished her sentence her Mom and Dad and the others then began listening to her as she is right, the Homeworld Gems do follow orders from the Diamonds, and some of them don't like following orders all the time, like Peridot.

As they knew Jewel was right, Jewel then began to walk over to the out-cold Peridot as she picked her up from the sandy floor and held onto her as Peridot was small as Jewel then said to her mom, dad and the team. "Mom, Dad, everyone, we should let Peridot join the team." When Jewel said that, her Mom and the others then looked surprised, curious ad confused as Pearl then asked.

"Why do you want that Jewel?" When Pearl asked her daughter that, Jewel then began looking down at Peridot she was holding in her hands as she then looked at Pearl and then said.

"I want that because Peridot's defenseless, she doesn't have anywhere else to go, plus if we get Peridot to join the team that means will be getting extra help and another member in the team, and I could watch over her all the time if you want." When Jewel said that with a smile, both of her parents then began thinking as they don't know if they should let Peridot stay or not, as after a few minutes they both then began noticing Steven smiling as he then said to Pearl and the others.

"Listen to Jewel guys, if we do what Jewel told us to do will be able to have another Gem in the Crystal Gems, us, there's even a possibility she can help us with somethings that we all can't be able to do like if there's something broken or that we can't get through she can help us with all that."

When Steven finished his sentence, Pearl and Onyx along with Soren, Amethyst and Garnet then began looking at each other as when they did that both Soren and Amethyst looked at the leader and Onyx as Soren said. "We should go with Jewel's idea Pearl and Onyx, Peridot could be helpful for all of us." When Soren said that Amethyst then nods agreeing as Pearl and Onyx look at Garnet who looks at Onyx and Pearl the leader as she then nodded to them both signaling that they should listen to Jewel.

After that Pearl and Onyx then looked each other and then nodded as Pearl then said. "Okay Jewel, we can have Peridot on the team, but promise me and the others that you watch over Peridot to make sure she doesn't do anything wrong, please." When Pearl asked that with Onyx nodding, as Jewel then smiled and then said to her parents.

"I promise Mom and Dad, and don't worry I'm going to look over and make sure Peridot becomes part of the team." When Jewel said that she then began to look at Peridot who was in her arms as she then began to smile at her seeing how cute Peridot looks as she then said to her. "Don't worry, I can heal you and get rid of all those injuries you got."

As Jewel said that smiling she then begins to place her hand on top of Peridot's forehead where her Gem is at as she began making her Gem glow as she was healing Peridot up Steven began to also heal his Gf Lapis as he began starting by removing Lapis's dress as he began untying the back of Lapis's dress top as once it was untied he then let go making it go down as Lapis was then topless for the moment before Steven began taking it off completely.

While he did that he began to grab both Lapis's dress and undies before pulling them down, teasing Lapis a bit, making her moan until he fully got her clothes off, when he got Lapis nude he then started to kiss her body to heal the injuries she has as he started by kissing her neck, then her chest, sides, belly, and then pelvis as while doing that Steven asked.

"How're you feeling Lapis?" When he asked, he then began to kiss Lapis's pussy as she then said to him through her moans, smiling.

"I'm feeling much better Steven~" As Lapis said that Steven then smiled and continued until all her injuries were gone as while he was finishing, Jewel then took her hand off of Peridot's forehead where her Gem is at as she then looked at Peridot who was still out cold as she then said to her.

"Peridot? Peridot are you okay, can you hear me?" When Jewel asked that curiously she then felt Peridot beginning to move a bit as she was fully healed as while she began to move a bit she then began to open her eyes as she gave a few groans before saying.

"Huh? W-who's saying my name?" As Peridot asked that she then opened her eyes fully and began to see better as she saw Jewel looking at her as Jewel then asked again.

"Are you okay Peridot?" When she asked that, Peridot then began to rub one of her eyes as she then looked at Jewel and then said to her.

"Yes, I'm okay, but who are you and where's my ship?" As Peridot said that she then saw the ship in pieces and broken as she then said while beginning to look at her arms and legs. "Oh, that's right, those clods destroyed it, that's...Wait, where's my Limb-Enhancers and-?" before she finished she then looked and then saw Pearl and the others as she immediately became fully awake before giving a scared yelp as she then held onto Jewel who then began trying to calm her down as she said.

"It's okay Peridot, they're not going to hurt you, I stopped them from doing that, I'm Jewel, and I have to say sorry, your Limb-Enhancers broke when they stopped you." As Jewel said that Peridot then saw her Limb-Enhancers that're broken as she then said.

"Those clods broke the only things I had for weapons." When Peridot said that looking a bit upset that her only weapons were broken before Jewel began comforting her as she said.

"Don't worry Peridot, I'll find a way to help you fix them, plus your with us now, and you no-longer need to follow orders of the Diamonds anymore." When Jewel said that Peridot then looked at Jewel and said and then asked confused.

"Thanks Jewel, but...Wait, what do you mean by that last part?"

When she asked, Jewel then smiled and began looking at her Mom, Dad and then team before looking at the Beach House as she then looked back at Peridot and then said. "I'll explain to you when we all head back into the Beach House, Mom, Dad, everyone, let's head back inside the Beach House."

After Jewel said that to her Mom who's the leader, and her Dad and the others that's when she began to pick up the Limb Enhancers holding them in one hand as she held Peridot in the other as they head towards the Beach House holding onto Peridot still as while heading back Lapis began looking at Peridot and began glaring at her as Steven noticed and asked. "Lapis are you ok?"

When Steven asked, Lapis then said. "Yes, just I'm mad at Peridot for what she tried to do."

As they walked to the Beach House Pearl then stopped and looked at Soren as she said. "Wait, Soren, take Peridot's ship into the temple, we can't have it out in the opening like that." When Pearl asked, Soren looked at the ship and then nodded to Pearl as he went to get it, as he did, the others went back inside of the Beach House as Jewel's going to be talking to Peridot and explain to her what she meant.
