This is my last chance at beating the thumbnail challenge, because I don't think I'll ever get better than this.

Guys, I found this cute picture of White Diamond on the internet, and I really like it. 

I might deliberately make a part in this story where White Diamond wears this type of clothing and try to live like a human on Earth

3rd Person P.O.V.

Steven continued his walk to the injector, blood drooling from the corner of his lip. He finally made it there, wiping the sweat off his head. 

"Steven!" Peridot cried upon seeing her friend with his skin color fading. "Your skin is grey!"

"Don't worry about me. HG, the injector, how do we stop it?" Steven asked. 

Huge Gigantacus shifted in his chair. "We can't stop it." 

Steven's eyes widened. "What?!"

"Perhaps I should elaborate." Huge Gigantacus pressed a button on his chair, projecting a screen, showcasing the injector's blueprints. "The clown has modified the injector and bypassed the security overrides I've implemented into my injectors."

"Can't we just move it?" Steven asked, wondering if it would be possible to simply remove the injector from the Earth.

"No." Peridot answered.

"Disturbing the injector will cause a failsafe to execute, which will dispense every single ounce of that bio poison into the Earth, and kill every organic creature on this planet." Huge Gigantacus explains. "As well as it has the potential to explode, eliminating anyone within its radius."

"Then how could we remove it from the ground?" Steven asked. 

"The only way to move the injector is to have someone who bypassed the security move themselves remotely. And that someone is the clown. Who appears to not be so kind to do such a thing. So, you and all of humanity are doomed." Huge Gigantacus explains.

"There's got to be another way." Steven said.

"There is no other safe way to remove the injector." Huge Gigantacus said. "Causing the injector to explode will stop it from destroying the Earth, but that will kill you and any poor soul near it."

"What if I use this to blow it up from a distance?" Steven grabbed his Explosive Gel from his pink jacket.

"So that's where it went..." Huge Gigantacus commented on Steven being the one who stole his gadget. "That'll help, but it's going to take a lot more than that to obliterate this machine."
