By the time the first gem was coming out of her gemstone, Steven had already fallen asleep.

Luckily, Garnet woke him as soon as a bright light started emanating from the gem.

The darker blue gemstone started floating up towards the ceiling, but stopped halfway.

Suddenly, the light started forming the shape of a body, and after a moment, you might catch a glimpse of a blue dress.

Another moment and a gem floated to the ground.

She had light blue curly hair and dark blue skin.

Her dress was a lighter blue than her skin, yet darker than her hair, and her gem, which was on her neck, was the darkest and bluest of all.

"Who are you?" she asked, no sign of a threat in her voice.

"We are the Crystal Gems, guardians of Earth." Garnet replied.

"So you don't work for Homeworld?" asked the gem.

"No" said Garnet.

The gem hesitated. "Hmm… you aren't lying." She said.

"Who are you?" asked Steven.

"I am Lazulite." She said with a smile, "And who might you be?"

"I'm Steven, and I'm a Crystal Gem too!" he replied enthusiastically, holding up his shirt.

"Careful Steven, we don't know if she's a threat or not yet." Garnet warned.

"I can assure you, I am no threat.

I left Homeworld a long time ago, thousands of years, in fact.

I wanted to study planets with living creature on them.

I've seen creatures evolve from bacteria in the water to five-legged animals with complex machines and buildings.

I had grown very fond of these creatures, and they me.

Unfortunately, a gem known as Peridot came, and re-activated an old kindergarten, thus destroying all life on that planet.

I tried to fight back, but her body guard, a gem named Jasper, proved too much for me, and I ended up stuck in a cell.

Fortunately, a gem named Silver found me and helped me out.

I helped her free the other gems.

At least, until Jasper found out we had escaped.

We would have gotten away if it hadn't been for that scorching wand.

They captured us once more, and tortured us until we were forced to retreat into our gems." Said Lazulite.

"Woah…" said Steven, "that same thing almost happened to us! But now the ship blew up and we have to clean it up…"

"You blew up their ship!?" exclaimed Lazulite.

"Well, we kinda crashed it…" said Steven.

"Oh, well, it doesn't matter, their gone now." said Lazulite with a sigh of relief.

"Not exactly." Said Garnet.

"What do you mean?" Asked Lazulite.

"Well Peridot escaped while the ship was going down, and Jasper is trapped somewhere underwater." Steven said.

"We have to find them!" said Lazulite.

"We're looking." Said Garnet.

"Hmm… very well, at least they are outnumbered..." said Lazulite.

Suddenly, the striped gem started glowing and floating to the middle of the room.

It formed the shape of a body, and a gem floated down.

She was short and had stripes along her face and arms.

She looked over at Lazulite.

"Can we trust these gems?" she asked.

"Yes" said Lazulite, turning to Steven and Garnet, "This is Tiger's Eye." She said.

Once more, a gem started glowing,.

This time, the light blue one.

Finally, a blue figure came floating to the ground.

"Amazonite!" she gasped.
