"Steve, the Gems just thought it was okay to leave you here? You're not even old enough to stay home alone!" Connie said.
Steven replied "I don't know Connie, but I have no idea what is a duplicator even though it was my mother's."
Steven and Connie then continued to suck they're Popsicles, and Steven led Connie into his room to watch a cartoon.
Steven and Connie then continued discussing about their life since they considered themselves as best friends.
"Connie? I have something to tell you." Steven asked. "Yes Steven?" Connie replied looking at Steven with eyes twinkling like the stars. "Oh my gosh" Steven though as he began to say what he was going to say to Connie "Um, I have had a-"
Then a sudden smash was heard.
Steven projected his shield and his Rose-Quartz bubble to protect him and Connie.
"Who are you?!" Steven yelled.
The voice replied "Human-Gem and Human-Girl, long time no see."
Steven said to the lime-green colored dust of smoke "Show Yourself!" Steven now took out his sword.
The voice replied again "You know who I am." Steven's eyes suddenly widened and whispered "Peridot."
"Steven? Who is that?" Connie asked his friend.
"Stay Back!" Steven said as he bubbled Connie and threw her in the air back so that she could be safe.
Peridot wasn't herself, she had red glowing eyes and her fingers were outstretched.
Steven then used all his powers to combine the power of his shield to his sword creating an all powerful Rose-Quartz sword-spear-gun.
Peridot then used her finger-gun to take out Steven, but Steven kept dodging.
"Argh!" Steven yelled as he swung his sword at Peridot, which took out her right-hand finger gun.
Peridot then switched to her left-hand gun and continued to shoot Steven, which accidentally took out the bubble that was around Connie.
Connie then grabbed the nearest sword Pearl owned and started slicing Peridot along with Steven.
But then, Peridot returned her hand back to normal since all of her limbs were almost gone, she punched both eyes of Steven and used her finger power to blow Connie back as she escaped through the hole she smashed through the wall.
Steven was knocked out, and rolled outside and landed from the top of the cliff and lay still.
"Steven, Steven, Steven where are you? Steven!" Connie's voice said as it echoed through his ears.
Steven whispered to himself as he was bleeding hard "At least you're safe." And his eyes closed.
