Where was I?

The last I remember was...

Lazuli and I were fused, and we were fighting the fusion Alexandrine.

The arrow hit us and...

I studied my arms. We must have been unfused. But where was I?

I stood up and glanced around. We, no I reminded myself, I was in a cavern. There was a opening and I pulled myself through. I was still on Mask island. As I gazed into the water I gasped.

My gem, it was cracked.

What could I do? the only gem who could heal cracked gems was Rose Quartz...

"No!" I thought. "It's not worth it!"

But I had no other option. With a heavy heart, I journeyed to find the crystal gems.

I walked up mask island, trying to find the warp pad, assuming it was still intact.

I stumbled and fell, my limbs responding to the crack.

I crawled up the surf.

I needed to get to the gems before I became corrupted.

The warp, damaged but still intact, was just a few feet ahead of me. "The Crystal Gems must of fixed it" I thought,even my thoughts wavering. I crawled up to the pad and warped myself to the gems.

Amethyst and I were walking out on the boardwalk. I counted the change in my pocket. "Hey Amethyst?" She turned to look at me. "Yeah?" I pointed to the untouched donut in her hands. "Can I have your donut?" She tossed it in her mouth, napkin and all. "Sorry none left." We walked back to the temple.

"Steven!" Pearl gestured me over. "You too Amethyst!" From her urgent tone of voice it was clear something was wrong. "Is that..." My voice trailed off. I gulped. "Jasper?" Amethyst finished. Pearl nodded.

I stared at Jasper. Her gem had a long fixture on it and her limbs were thinner and the stripes seemed to be almost fading. "Pearl, poof her," I said. "Then she won't have her gem crack further than it is." Pearl nodded, and plunged her spear into Jasper's back. Her body poofed in a cloud of mist. I picked up the gem and bubbled it.
