As the dust clears, a large shadow takes shape. The Rubies stiffen in unison, their eyes widening in recognition as the silhouette solidifies into Jasper's imposing figure... Standing there in silent and still, despite having no expression but her figure was enough...

The Home-world Rubies all cheer and mumble excitedly. The Eye Gem pushes through the other Home-world Rubies and approaches Jasper.

Eyeball: Jasper! I'm Ruby 1F4 Cut 4ND. I fought in the war for Earth. 

Soon after perform what seem to be a salute.

Jasper said no words as she would only look down at this Ruby, despite the uneasy feeling that the Eye Gem felt, she would continue with sweat pouring down her face.

Eyeball: A-Apologies, If I... We have cause you any trouble already! 

As the Rubies had began to feel more nervous by the second, the barn beside of them began to fall to pieces and crashes down on itself, catching the attention of the Rubies team off guard.

Taking notice of the barn as well realizing that the gems that their ship had fired at was completely gone as Jasper was in their location.

Arm Ruby: That was....

Chest Ruby: AMAZING!!!

Eyeball: You completely destroyed those gems instantly and destroyed a large structure at the same time?! You're truly are the greatest Quartz there ever was... No, the greatest and strongest Gem! 

When Jasper had appeared, there was not a single trace of the previous gems that was in the dust cloud beside of Jasper, meaning.... Jasper not only out speed their ship barrage of beams but during the barrage, She took down 4 gems and even destroyed the large structural base at the same time before they could even registered what happen!

Jasper was more then the rumors, She was better!

The other Rubies nod fervently, their faces lighting up with awe and relief. They gather around, their postures still straight but their expression was like kids at a candy store or looking at their idol.

Navy Ruby: Truly amazing~!

Chest Ruby: She must've taken down the Crystal Gems already. Of course she did... She's The Jasper!

The Rubies collectively puff out their chests, their morale skyrocketing in the presence of the most decorated elite in the Yellow Diamond corp. 

Eyeball: I was on the ground in Facet 6 when I heard the tale of the Facet 9 Kindergarten Quartz that could. They said you popped out of the ground with your helmet on, and took out 80 Crystal Gems before the sun went down. When I found out the primary mission was to look for you before the signal, I nearly dissipated my form! It is... an honor to finally meet you.
