Footage is playing out throughout the halls, allowing many to witness the following
"Wait guys please!"
"No. I'm sorry but we can't let you go unpunished. You can't wander off somewhere without telling us"
"Why!? What's the big idea-"
Blue – What a big idea!? I thought I lost you Spinel! For a however short were those hours, u thought we lost you like we did Pink! But never again!
Spinel is seen in a dark isolated room. Most didn't recognise it but few who did looked on in terror.
It was Pink Diamond's old prison...
She is seen bashing and smashing against the walls, screaming for release.
"Let me out! Please! I can't do it! Please! Please! I-I won't do it again! I can change! Please don't leave me alone here!"
Apparently according to the time on footage, she spent few hours there.
Blue – Should we release her now? She seems-
Yellow – No. She misbehaved like Pink , you remember what happened when she did. And if this time, we bend the rules for her, then we'll have to bend them for everyone. She will have to deal with it just like everyone else!
Blue – These "time-outs" are really needed...
Yellow – You chose the punishment Blue, I prefer you have the final say... either your option or White's way... And I know she loves Spinel but should she find her behaviour unacceptable, we both know what she may do... even if Steven will be against it.
Blue – Oh, right...
Yellow – We have no choice, neither does she whether she likes it or not.
And all while a crying Spinel laid against the walls...
The footage then goes to the Pink Diamond's Palace where Spinel goes on a brutal rampage yelling about her mistreatment as she carelessly vandalised everything in her way. So much that it led to the dome coming down on her and her rubies...
One of them Aby now remembers something on top of that dome but it is all too late now as the gems and guests see what has transpired.
Before anyone can say something it then shifted elsewhere , this time in a forest with one of Spinel's guardian Jasper standing around the rocks and a cave.
With someone standing in front of her, emanating wave of pink energies.
For few moments straight, she was fighting the figure who tries to push her back before she bashed them in the head.
They then screamed at her to back off causing shock waves.
The figure was revealed to be human gem hybrid Steven Universe himself... although he wasn't looking like his usual self.
Unfortunately it formed a different impression of him, sweaty and rat-like.
All muscle, dressed up like a homeless punk.
Ramming Jasper with rocks and hexagon shields at the speed of sound throughout the forest.
The fight heating up in the skies with Steven laughing like an unhinged maniac.
He then throws her down on the ground and trapped her with hexagons, she is unable to escape.
"You're right Jasper!!"
A giant wall with numerous spikes on it appear before Steven as he declares "I HAVE BEEN HOLDING BACK!!"
And with that, descended down upon a shocked and horrified Jasper, crushing her to pieces.
There was certainly silence in some places, some were whispers... there was overall a sense of dread...
Olivine – You are confused, I assume. I can understand, I was also when I first heard of this Era 3. I was a capable scientist, doing my duty. Bringing some use... but then that was gone. Because of your beloved Steven Universe, who gave defects and traitors new chance of life... Well, how does it look like now? Is he still that example of trust that you have admired so much?
Olivine turns off the screen, leaving the people watching in shock and disbelief.
Some were appalled by the images, some were concerned if they were even real...
Some were rather calm about it but still saw what was coming
Star Sapphire – I see nothing but bloodshed ahead. Do you?
Onion looked at her, nodding his head. He agrees.
Nora – What was THAT?!
Connie – I-I don't know.. where is Steven?
Then there came another footage. This time with another person in it, seemingly a human...
"HAHAHAHA Olivine really had a good time showing all this, I hope you all appreciate"
Connie – Otto?!
"Don't worry, I assure you. You have a lot of surprises to come. However, first let me make something clear to the gems... we humans will NEVER truly be your friends. This so called "ball of unity"...We will betray you, we WILL kill you... Not many of you will get out of here alive, much more in pieces... Starting right now."
The footage ends with a lot more questions added on top of everyone's minds...
Suddenly throughout the Palace multiple gas bombs were thrown in heavily populated areas.
Causing huge smoke, and in response panic.
People were running around trying to understand what's happening.
And this all happens as Steven is watching, his celebration call was turning into a madhouse.
He didn't notice but he already left the hall where Connie and the diamonds were in, too scared to look Connie in the eyes...
Too enraged at the diamonds for their abuse of Spinel... like with his mom... They did again. Again.
He then bumped into Jasper who watched him leaving.
Jasper – Where are you going my Diamond? And what is your plan, we can't let that peridot and that human traitor to ruin everything here.
Steven didn't know if he should go back, he definitely didn't feel like it... but now he had two options, either go back and get to the bottom of this, meaning also face them about his condition.. or leave them at this moment with his problems like Pink did...
Part of him wondered now if she also felt just as pathetic, weak and unworthy when she did that...
"Well, well look who we got here. A powerful hero now running to his office..."
The two looked at a familiar gem fusion.
Steven – Bluebird!
Bluebird – Well all the better, thanks to Jasper showing your fight to all those fools was an easy feat. Now let's remove you from office once and for all.
Jamie – Okay this is getting crazier by the minute...
Why would Otto do this? And how is he here after days of absence?
He then hears Spinel collapsing on her knees.
Spinel held herself nervously.
Jamie pats her on the head.
Jamie – Spins?... I wont lie, I have some questions to you... but I don't think this confusion is the time for that-
Spinel – The know... Jamie they know... they know I've shattered rubies. They'll leave me now! They won't want me anymore!
Jamie remembered 'Of course, abandonment issues... they're more serious than I thought...'
That's why she didn't say anything...
Then they hear a voice nearby
"...Don't worry... Rest assured you won't be alone..."
He looked at her and she looked a bit ominous if not creepy...
James – Wait what are?-
Priyanka – What is it this time?!
First it was the gem Olivina that shown some very disturbing images... then that kid Otto/Otar with Vertebrobasilar insufficiency and burned face, though strangely here he had none of scars...started threatening them with murder. She knew there was something off about him.
Now there are smoke grenades here...
Priyanka - And what is this smoke?
Doug – Could be a tear gas. It's not used often...but why it's a green colour?
She watches as Yellowtail and his family are gassed along Zoomans and many other guests.
At first nothing but then they begin to cough and later, yell and scream in fear and panic.
Kicking around other people and throwing food around in a crazed frenzy.
Some began to go wilder as they hit each other and attack gems as well.
Doug – That's not good, things escalate into violence.
Jimmy – You don't say. When a party turns into fight, there'll be broken bones and missing teeth!
Rachel – There's another one incoming!
She mentioned the grenade that now fell near them before they could stand back
Priyanka smelled something odd about the gas... then it clicked
It's a chemical toxin!
Priyanka – Don't breath! Don't inhale it!
The warning came too late it was already within their systems.
As the toxin sets in so does their fear...
Most if not all beings has something to fear... they tell themselves not anymore but thesimply subsides and crawls under their skins, waiting to be remembered...
Clarence/Yellowtail
Running through the forest, sweating heavily...
It was close behind him, getting closer to him...
He can't get caught, he CAN NOT GET CAUGHT at any cost!
He put up some speed before stumbling, he then sees a knife thrown in nearby wood...
It missed him by luck, he immediately gets going again.
Only to then fall into the deep river, he's trying to swim back but sees the doll guy waiting there for him..
It was his Lil' Buddy doll that traumatised him in his childhood... it reminded him of misery and death...
Now it's coming back for him...
He then sees a crocodile in the river swimming towards him.
He swims away trying to get out somehow but each time Buddy is there...
He can't get out!
Doug
Ever since he was fifteen, Doug Maheswaran had had a deep acrophobia – a fear of heights.
He was reluctant to tell anyone; he only ever told his wife.
His friends, his co-workers, his daughter?
They didn't need to know of his fear.
It was a silly thing, really, and it wasn't like they ever really needed to know.
But that fear is still chewing off his mind, especially now when he's held by the neck up high from the building by mobsters.
"What is it cop? Not a lovable job anymore?"
He looked down as the ground was so far away... It looked like it further away as he was looking.
Then they decided to make it "funnier"
They started holding him by the necktie as he struggled to escape...
But there is no escape
Sara/Pryianka
Like her own mother, she was always protective of her daughters, as much as with her patients.
With all their oddities like a gem in Nora's head or Connie's strife for knife training.
Still ever since that hospital incident 3 years ago, a scary after thought was worrying to her.
One can't help sometimes but think and ask what would happen if we did or didn't do the actions that were being considered.
Sadly she couldn't escape that question and it is being answered before her very eyes.
Those frankenstain creatures roamed the asylum following them, their intent was clear...
And unfortunately they got caught...
They held her down, possibly wanting to do something even more inappropriate...
Steven was stabbed in the head and wasn't moving...
While Connie? Oh Connie, she was being ripped apart by these amalgamations...
With her insides coming out, she was barely uttering a word..
"W-why didn't you give me the sword?!"
She had to step in when her children are in over their heads... but who steps in when she gets too stubborn?..
She now knew regrettably... and she has none to blame but herself.
Kofi
Kofi didn't like watching dark movies as he often had scary thoughts of what could happen in times of civil unrest, which in Beach City may get out of control.
Just like the situation he is in right about now...
Kofi and his daughters, in a destroyed Beach City, are threatened by angry thugs to have some "fun" with them.
One pointed a gun at him while his buddies held his daughters at gunpoint...
"Where are the other two ladies? Talk old man or else..."
Kofi – I don't know! Please don't hurt my daughters!
"Oh we won't hurt them yet. You? I wonder"
He's now a hostage, and he can't do anything about it.
Greg
"Hello there Gregory"
Greg now sees a little frog that he hasn't seen for many years, whether he was called George or Funderberker. A little companion him and his brother had...
Greg – Hey there didn't see ya in a while... Haven't seen ya since... since...
The unknown... the forest labyrinth...
Greg – Wait, where were you? Did you get lost or ... died... I'm sorry if so. I've all but forgotten about you..
"Oh Gregory, you may have forgotten me but I've never forgotten you..."
His mouth was opening wider and wider, spewing out a ton of black turtles.
His eyes then glows in a familiar and frightening colour.
The frog then dissapeared into darkness only for a sound of shriek to come out.
He was lured into this forest again, Greg started to freak out as he felt like someone was behind him...
A shadow of a deer...
He looked over to see who was there but the shadow shifted, darting from side to side...
He knew who that shadow was...
The beast, the tempter, great deceiver, the entity roaming the Unknown who tried to kill his brother, who lied him into being a tree... he remembered it now...
Greg – No no it's not possible! The woodsman! He took you down! He blew off the lantern!
"Did you think that would stop me?! Did you think I'd forget the one child who escaped my grasp?!"
All the light now shrunk all around him as dark closed in.
"Your brother won't save you this time! Neither will your son!"
Greg – N-no you can't there must be a way out! I'll find it again!
He was surrounded by the woods with crying faces...
Woods that were once humans...
"Ever the helpless lost boy, there is no other way. Only me, only my way only the forest...
ONLY SURRENDER!"
Hi again, finally back! My studies are done so I hopefully may be more active now. We shall see.
Aside from that, the party riots yep. Welcome to the madhouse! Fear Toxin isn't something new, expect lotta mayhem coming up.
