This was the actual ending Amethyst was talking about. Apparently, Garnet exaggerated the ending.

==================

The earth started shaking, the gems staying firm in the ground, while Connie and Steven started bouncing to the rhythmic pattern of the ground's shaking.

"Uh… Connie? I have one teeny weenie question to ask you…" Steven asked, grabbing Connie's shoulder, and bubbling them both to keep them from bouncing.

"What is it, Steven?" Connie asked.

Steven looked over the horizon, then back at Connie. "When you fell out of the forest, how did you end up bruised?" Steven asked. Connie's eyes widened, as she realized what was causing the rumbling.

"*gasp* Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, there's another gem approaching your way!" Connie yelled.

Steven whimpered; "In this case; two!"

Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl turned to face the children. "What?!" they exclaimed.

Indeed, the children were correct. On the right side of the horizon, appeared a yellow gem in full body armor. Instead of the whites of her eyes, they could see it being engulfed in green flames.

And on the left side of the horizon, appeared a blue gem in a light blue dress wearing a sash, holding weapons. That gem too, had green eyes instead of white, and the usual color of her eyes.

"Steven! What is up with their eyes?" Pearl yelled.

Immediately, Steven recognized what was going on based on the color of the gem's eyes.

"Connie! Remember that encounter we had with that lime green gem earlier today?" Steven yelled over the rumbling. Connie nodded.

"Those gems were hypnotized!" Steven yelled as the Crystal Gems charged at the approaching gems.

With a whip gripped in her hand, Amethyst slashed at the blue gem, which just kept dodging her attacks. Amethyst's weapon of choice did not limit her to just a whip. She shook the whip, and it simply vanished. Amethyst reached into her gem, and out came a lavender sword.

The blue gem would not put her at ease. "You're an amethyst, right?" the blue gem asked. Amethyst was confused at this statement, but continued to slash at the gem, who merely kept dodging.

"You're supposed to be bigger than this, no wonder my master had called you defective!" the blue gem taunted.

Amethyst stopped slashing, and realized who this 'master' was, it was the person who had left her and the gems, and Lapis Lazuli, to be something 'greater'; Peridot.

Getting lost in her thoughts, Amethyst could not concentrate. For she had not noticed that the blue gem, was slowly reaching into the her own gem, which was located on her forehead, her own weapon.

Pearl, who was close by, had seen the whole scene.

She threw her spear at the blue gem's hand, and out came, flying, a light turquoise bow and arrow. Indeed it flew out, but upon hitting the ground, it proofed and simply vanished.

The blue gem watched as the bow and arrow vanished, and turned to look at Pearl. Amethyst wasn't her only target now.

The blue gem was enraged. She charged at Pearl without her weapon, but simply used her fists. Pearl kept dodging, but wondered one thing; what was this gem called?

"Hey!" Pearl called, who kept dodging the enraged gem's attacks. "Bet your not too powerful, people who don't know you simply call you 'the blue gem!'" Pearl yelled.

This had snapped at the gem's mind; what had this puny gem called her?

Her eyes also had reached its limit; her eyes glowed from green to red. This could not mean a good sign.

"Zircon IS a powerful gem! What are you supposed to be, a Pearl? My master had talked about you! You're just a pearl, who is supposed to be a servant under the most powerful gem, which IS ZIRCON!" Zircon yelled as she charged at Pearl, with the weapon of choice.

Pearl had reached her limit in her mind, but did not let it distract her from her mission. After all, she was plainly used to being called 'just a pearl'

Pearl leaped behind Amethyst, who was still moping and staring at the ground, thinking about what Zircon had said to her, minutes before.

"Amethyst, snap out of it, what that gem had said doesn't matter, you are stronger than this! What happened to the Amethyst who doesn't let anything get to her?" Pearl said, griping Amethyst by the shoulders, and vigorously shaking her.

This snapped Amethyst back to reality, Pearl was right; She was the Amethyst who doesn't let anything get to her. She looked up, and drew her weapon from her gem.

Pearl did the same, griping the spear in her hand. Pearl looked at Amethyst, who had a determined look on her face.

Simultaneously, Amethyst and Pearl charged at the stronger, hypnotized Zircon.
