The Sun Incinerator is seen drifting through space, its thrusters flickering. Lars is sitting in the captain's chair and the Off Colors are at their respective stations.
"Captain's log. Star date, uh... Thursday. Space... is really big. Everything is messed up. Our nova thrusters are busted. And getting home is taking forever." Lars says to no one in particular.
Rhodonite turns to Lars. "Hey, Captain? Should we be writing this down?"
"Uh, yeah!" Lars replies.
Suddenly, Steven emerges from Lars' hair with a sub sandwich. "Who wants a party sub!?"
"What exactly are we celebrating?" Rhodonite asks.
"You guys beat Emerald. And you rescued me, Y/n and Connie from the Jungle Moon. And you have this super fast ship, so you'll be back on Earth in no time." Steven declares.
"It's only super fast when it works!" Lars tells him as he snatches the sandwich from Steven.
Fluorite emerges from the engine room. "Captain Lars... I've finished... rerouting..."
"Power from the gravity engine to the nova thrusters?" Lars cuts her off. "Great! Twins, floor it on the thrusters!"
"Right away, Captain! Yes, Captain!" The Rutile Twins reply and activate the nova thrusters, the ship begins to pick up speed briefly, when the thrusters falter and the ship's power goes out.
"Aww!..." The off colours all groan.
"Captain Lars, don't use the thrusters! We're going to lose power!" Padparadscha warns him.
"Thanks, Padparadscha." Lars dejectedly replies.
"Hey... If we're going to be drifting a while, there's somebody I'd like you all to meet." Steven says.
Lars looks at his hair and groans. "Are they bigger than that sandwich?"
"Maybe a few pickles bigger."
"Bigger than you?"
"I mean, one of them doesn't have to be." Steven tells him.
"Fine. Bring 'em over." Lars gives in.
Steven jumps into Lars' hair, and shortly reemerges with Y/n and Garnet who had shapeshifted into Steven.
"Twins!" Steven says as he poses with Garnet.
Fluorite looks surprised. "Another... Steven?..."
"There's more of you?!" Lars cries in shock.
Y/n just laughs. "Nah, that's just Garnet." He explains and Garnet shapeshifts back to normal and the others gasp, catching a glimpse of Garnet's eyes before she adjusts her visor back into place.
"Her eyes. A fusion?" The Rutile twins say.
"He's going to bring back Y/n and another Steven!" Padparadscha announces.
"Like I said before this is Garnet. She leads the Crystal Gems back on Earth." Y/n introduces her properly.
"Just look at you all!" Garnet says as she walks up to and hugs Rhodonite. "You must be Rhodonite... a Ruby and a Pearl? That must have been a story." She wraps her arm around Rhodonite and lowers her visor slightly. "I want all the details."
Rhodonite chuckles nervously. "Ehh..."
"And you must be the Rutile Twins." Garnet gasps and wraps her arms around the Rutile Twins next. "I've never seen anyone like you before."
