Hello again let's get started now. Also sorry for the bad Spanish.
At the Galaxy warp Peridot was moving ruble around. "First the communication hub and now this place is trashed. Ugh how can this get any worse?" She groaned before a warp-pad activated revealing Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, Prism, Lava, Litch, and Steven.
"Hello Peridot." Lava said with a wicked smile.
"Wha how did you find me?" Peridot asked in shock.
"That's a secret and we'll never tell even if you aske nicely." Steven said sticking his tongue out at her.
The group then charged at Peridot making several attempts to grab her but Pearl kept jumping infront of each attempt or Peridot was able to counter their attacks somehow. These actions lead to Peridot getting to a working warp-pad. "Haha see ya later clods." She said sticking her tongue out at them before warping away.
"Bye have a good day." Steven called making the other glare at him. "I mean I hope she doesn't have a good day."
After a quick warp the group was back at the temple and Pearl was quickly working on the pod Peridot had arrived in.
" Just a second and we'll know exactly where she went to." Pearl said tinkering with the pod. As she worked the pod came to life with lights and beeps. "Ah I've got it off we go." Pearl said getting on the pad and quickly activating it and taking them to the location. They then arrived at a giant crashed space ship.
"Geeze she must be desperate." Litch said looking at the ship which was covered in vines and plants.
"What is it?" Steven asked.
"Well-" Litch started before Pearl cut in.
"Well Steven at the beginning of gem invasions-" She started before Lava then cut her off.
"It's a transport ship." Lava said walking to a nearby door of the ship before forcing it open and everyone following. They then found themselves in a room where Peridot was standing.
"Hello clods." She snickered.
Pearl charged at her and ran her through with her spear but nothing happened.
"Hologram." Garnet said moving her back and forth through said hologram. Peridot began to laugh as the hologram disappeared and a large screen appeared with her face on it and...no sound.
"Uuh...are we supposed to hear her?" Amethyst asked scratching her head.
As they watched Peridot on the screen begin to talk without them hearing anything till Steven waved his arms getting her attention and pointed to his ear indicating they dont hear her. Peridot then looked to be pressing a few buttons before the screen went away but her voice came through.
"How do you? Stupid old tech. Stupid clods. Can you hear me know?" She asked.
"Yeah but we can't see you." Steven said.
"WHAT? SPEAK INTO THE VOICE RECEIVER." Peridot yelled.
Steven saw a small device on some kind of table with a red gem on it connected to a long white wire. He then picked it up and spoke into it. "Hello?"
"Ah yes finally now prepa-" Peridot started before Steven spoke again.
"Uh sorry to interrupt you but we can't see you."
"Ugh! Hold on. stupid little." She grumbled before coming back on the screen. "Is it on now?" Peridot asked Steven giving her a thumbs up. "Now then clods any last words before I end you?"
Amethyst leaned over to the mic. "Uh yeah this is Amethyst and I don't appreciate being called a clod ya clod."
"Well then take this." Peridot said hitting a button and...nothing happened till she pressed it again and several lazers popped out of the wall and started firing. "DIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIE!" She yelled.
They all began running to avoid the lazers till Steven summoned his shield and held it over his head deflecting the lazers everyone huddled under it for protection as the lazers seemed to slowly stop firing looking at the walls they noticed all the lazers were gone. "What where'd they go?" Peridot asked confused as was everyone else till they heard a cough. Turning toward the sound and saw a gem wearing black shorts about as tall as Amethyst and same build but had a red body and black stripe like markings his hair looking slicked back red with black lines. His gem was on his right shouldet it was a deep red with faded black stripes.
"Hola, ¿puedo guardar estos?" The gem said holding up the now broke devices in his arms.
"Uh...okay?" Amethyst said.
"Hurra!" He cheered doing a little dance.
"Friend of yours?" Garnet asked Prism who chuckled.
"Yeah that's Tigereye or Tiger he's like our Amethyst." Lava answered.
Tiger pouted droppes the devices and bowed up to Lava but barely came to mid-thigh "¡No hay nada como yo, '' cept conmigo!" He yelled.
"Why does he speak Spanish?" Steven asked.
"Oh he can speak English he just like Spanish, Oi Tiger English time amigo." Lava said giving Tiger a little conk on the head.
"Fine...Pendejo." Tiger gumbles rubbing his head.
"Okay enough chit chat we have to get to Peridot." Pearl said running out a door and further into the ship to look for where Peridot might be.
As they walked on Steven looked at Tiger who was humming 'la cucaracha'. "So why are you here Tiger?" Steven asked.
"Oh nada just looking for teroso, treasure." He answered pulling out a collection of small broken gears, springs, and colorful glass. To Steven these things looked like just bits of junk.
"Treasure?" Steven asked.
"Don't read into it too much." Litch said walking past as the group walked down the hall of the ship. They soon came across a hallway that lead to a door. "That's the control room if she's anywhere she's there." Litch said pulling out his sword.
"I'll handle this." Pearl said running towards the door.
"Pearl wait!" Garnet yelled running after her but as she caught up the floor dropped out from underneath them and closed up.
"Pearl, Garnet!" They all yelled running to where they had fallen.
"Hahaha finally something goes right!" Peridot cheered showing up on a screen. "Now watch as your friends meet their demise." She said as the screen changed showing Garnet and Pearl trapped in a square room that was slowly starting to close in on them.
"They won't be able to break out of there unless they form Sardonyx and fat chance on that." Prism said watching the screen before looking behind it seeing a set of large gears turning. "We have to stop those gears." Prism said summoning a trident and throwing it at the gears jamming them.
"That won't hold." Tiger said jumping up to the gears. "This might." Tiger said his arm glowing before turning into a black armored full-arm gauntlet but the hand was a large spiked ball. "¡toma esto!" He yelled slamming the ball in between the gears making them moan with stress.
Meanwhile the room Pearl and Garnet were in was closing in on them slowly. (I'm not doing the speach between the two because I'm not changing in it.)As everyone up top was keeping the gears from moving as much as they could but they still moved. Even now with Lava, Prism, Amethyst, and Steven pulling on a few whips Amethyst had made while Litch and Tiger were on the gears trying to jam them with their weapons. Suddenly the ground shook and Sardonyx emerged from the ground and quickly split into Pearl and Garnet.
"Well that's solved let's get Peridot." Lava said and walked to the door Garnet and Tiger joining him all summoning their weapons.
--inside ship control room--
Peridot was stressing over the controls as they sparked and malfunction. "Stupid clody old tech." She cursed before the console blew up and blew smoke in her face. "Ugh shards what else could go wrong?" She said as a explosion happened behind her.
"Knock knock." Lava said.
"buena mañana dama verde." Tiger said.
As they all entered Peridot readied to fire making them all stop. "This isn't over clods it's just the beginning...of my escape!" Peridot yelled shooting the ceiling and began to fly off laughing till she felt weight pulling on her foot. As she looked down she saw Steven holding onto her foot.
"Haha I caught a Peridot." Steven laughed as Amethyst grab him then Pearl grabbed her and Garnet her then Prism, Lava, Litch, and finally Tiger was weighing them down with his gauntlet.
"Let go!" Peridot yelled trying to get away but she then pressed a button on her foot and after a small explosion Steven noticed he still had Peridot's foot.
"Okay ew." Lava said seeing the foot.
"Can I have it?" Tiger asked.
"Later Tiger I want to let the techs look at it." Prism said taking the foot. " Anyone up for a trip?" He asked as a portal opened up behind them.
--Hidden city (tech center)--
As they arrived they noticed that it was very different from what they saw last time they had been there. instead of the look of a wealthy Japanese village it looked like a huge laboratory with Gems coming and going from Peridots and Critinites to Quartz and even what looked like a Lapis or two.
"Woah look at this place." Steven said stars coming to his eyes with pure amazement.
"Yeah little technical for my taste but I like the lights." Lava said watching a tall machine that blinked on and off with multiple colors.
Then a tall gem that looked like a carbon copy of Peridot but even taller walked up working with some sort of tablet device in hand. "Hello and welcome to the tech center..." She said in a very droning and bored voice. "If you have a request please file it and we will...what is that?" She asked looking up pointing at Steven who was holding Peridot's foot.
"Which one?" Prism asked.
"I know what that is..." She said pointing to the foot. "What is that?" She asked pointing to Steven.
"I'm Steven. What's your name?" He asked holding out his hand to shake.
"I'm Dezy and no thank you." She said gently pushing Steven's hand back to him with one finger. "Now back to the subject at hand what are you? You seem human but..." She lifted his shirt revealing his gem and began to poke and prod it making him giggle a bit. "But I see a gem."
"hehehe stop it...it tickles." Steven laughed before she grabbed his face.
"Hmm interesting you appear to have traits of both races. You must let me study you." Dezy said holding up her tablet and taking photos and notes. She was then stopped by Prism who covered her camera.
"Dezy, not now." He said holding up the foot imfront of her. "We just need you to tell us what this is."
"It's a limb enhancer." she said trying to get another picture of Steven but was stopped by Prism getting in her way making her groan. "Ugh it allows gems who lack abilities to keep up so to speak." She started before pulling up a hologram with her tablet and simulated what she was saying. "If a gem lack height, powers, etc. the limb enhancer allows them to do things that compensate like shooting plasma, magnetize them to a wall, and so on." She explained as the hologram showed them. "From just this foot I can't tell much but it's more advanced than anything we have around here. If you get anymore bring them by and I'll see what I can do." She said before kneeling down infront of Steven and opened his mouth. "Huh you have 33 teeth, odd."
"Okay that's it." Litch said pulling Dezy away from Steven. "Dezy stop it, Tiger you get the goot till we need it, and Steven let's get you home your bed time will be soon." Litch said as he, Prism, and Lava escorted him and the Gems to a warp-pad.
--Gem Temple--
Once at the temple Steven began his nightly routine he showered, brushed his teeth, and polished his gem. As he left the bathroom he noticed Prism was still there. "Hey Prism what are you still doing here?"
"Waiting to give you this." Prism answered holding up a silver necklace that what looked like a black four-sided diamond on it. "If you ever need help just grab this and push that little button and a black gem will be there." Prism said putting it around Steven's neck and fist bumping him before going to the warp-pad and leaving.
Steven then began to settle into bed saying goodnight to all his stuffed animals and the ominous dark shape at the end of his bed. When suddenly he was grabbed and pulled toward the warp-pad but was able to push the button on his necklace before he and his captor warped off.
--galaxy warp--
Steven was harshly dropped on the Homeworld warp and looked up seeing Peridot scowling down at him while trying to keep balanced on one foot. "Fix it." She demanded.
"What?" Steven asked.
"Fix the Homeworld warp-pad NOW!" She growled.
"U-um okay." Steven said licking his palm he slapped it onto the floor but after a few minutes nothing happened.
"WELL?" Peridot almost screamed.
"Sometimes it doesn't work." Steven said a little crestfallen. Steven then heard sobbing and looked up seeing Peridot before she dropped to the floor pulling her knees up to her face.
"Perfect just perfect." She sobbed. "I'm stuck on this miserable doomed planet, I can't call for help, I don't have a foot, I-I-I-I *crying* I WANT TO GO HOME-!" Peridot cried until she felt something wrap around behind her.
"It's okay." Steven said hugging her soothing her as much as he could.
"*sniff* Wha-What are you doing?" Peridot asked looking back at him.
"It's called a hug. You looked like you needed one." Steven said as Peridot began to calm down.
"It feels...nice." She said relaxing a bit until the warp-pad activated revealing the Crystal Gems, Prism, Litch, and Lava. Peridot screamed and hid behind Steven.
"Peridot give Steven back now." Garnet said summoning her gauntlets.
"Or else we sick Lava on you." Prism said as Lava cracked his knuckles (which sounded like a bag of rocks dropping.)
"Guys wait!" Steven cried as Peridot paniced behind behind him. "She's scared." Litch charged forward to try and attack Peridot but Steven threw up his bubble protecting them both.
"Steven, step away." Pearl said standing just on the other side of the bubble.
"No she's scared and didn't want to hurt me." Steven yelled. "Come on give her a chance."
"Garnet." Prism said motioning for her to come over. The two then began to whisper back and forth before they nodded. Prism walked over and tapped on the bubble. "Okay we'll leave her be but on one condition. Now drop the bubble." Prism said and Steven dropped the bubble then turned to Peridot but was met with a green cloud and Peridot's limbs falling to the ground.
"Ugh I'm gonna vom." Lava said looking at the limbs.
"I've got them." Litch said picking them up and walking to the warp-pad and warpping away.
Steven was in shock and looked at Prism who was holding Peridot's gem. "Condition met." Prism said putting the gem on the ground. "Sorry about that Steven but now I want you to get her on our side she may know something important."
"But for now It's bed time." Garnet said walking over and bubbling the gem and picking up Steven cradling him carrying them to the warp-pad and going homehome.
"Ugh he's gonna hate me." Prism groaned looking up into the stars.
So there we go again sorry for any bad Spanish and I changed 'catch and release a bit but now I've intrigued myself on how I'll do it. But until next time.
