Y/n was walking through the Gem battlefield, covered in strawberry bushes, with the Gems, Steven and Lion.
"This place is even bigger and more weapon-y than I remember." Steven says as he looks all around.
"This was a site of a historic battle. Every weapon here was left by a Gem over 5,000 years ago. I don't like to disturb it, but Garnet said we can't just leave these lying around." Pearl explains.
Y/n just watches as Garnet picks up a giant battle-axe and hoists it over her shoulder.
"Never know when you might need one of these." Garnet says.
"I need one of those all the time!" Steven says in awe of the axe.
"Why don't you look for one that's more... you?" Pearl tries to suggest.
"Well, I already have the rapier you gave me." Y/n comments as he looks around the battlefield.
"Hmm It's still missing it's protective covering." Pearl hums. "Oh, Perhaps their is a scabbard lost amongst these weapons that could hold it." She now suggests.
Y/n just looks out to the large field of littered weapons. "If you say so Pearl..." He sighs. "Come on Steven, Let's at least try find a good weapon for you."
"Okay!" Steven says cheerfully. "Lion, come help me look." He then calls to Lion but Lion starts to look at a butterfly and walks away after it. "Aw, come on."
"You really need to train that thing better." Pearl comments.
"Oh, we've been making progress, now he looks at me when I say his name!" Steven says and he begins to repeatedly call Lion's name, but Lion ignores him and starts digging in the ground. "Uh, sometimes..."
"It looks like he's found something." Y/n says as the three look at ion's digging and it reveals a pink object in the dirt.
"What's he got now?" Pearl asks.
Lion lifts the object up in his mouth, revealing to be a scabbard.
"I don't think that will fit my sword I'm afraid Lion." Y/n chuckles.
Pearl gasps however as she sees it properly now. "That's the scabbard for Rose's sword!" She says in shock and tries to snatch it from Lion's mouth. "Gimme! Gimme!" She takes hold of the scabbard and waves her hand at Lion. "Shoo, shoo."
"Lion lets go and grunts at Pearl, unamused.
"Mom fought here?" Steven asks now.
"That's right! And I fought alongside her." Pearl says proudly.
"Man, I wish I could've seen it!" Amethyst sighs.
"No, you don't." Garnet says a little annoyed. "Countless Gems were broken here. It was a maelstrom of destruction and death."
"But we won!" Pearl jumps in. "Steven, Your mother led us to glorious victory! The odds were against us, and our hearts were uncertain. But we chose to fight alongside Rose, and here we made our stand against our Homeworld!"
The group warp back home now, with the weapons they have gathered from the battlefield.
"This is great! My room's been needing another pile.
"Amethyst! Help me with this axe." Garnet says.
Both Amethyst and Garnet try to fit the battle-axe through the Temple Gate, conversing and making a commotion in the background.
