I'LL WAIT 4 U

Garnet and Pearl stepped off of the warpad. Steven ran to Garnet and hugged her legs, then did the same to Pearl. He looked around for the third gem. Steven looked behind Pearl, behind Garnet, in Garnet's hair, and on the floor. He stopped looking and put his attention back to Pearl and Garnet. "Okay...where's Amethyst?" Steven said suspiciously. "She got poofed during the mission" Garnet said, looking at Pearl. Pearl showed Steven the purple gem in her hands. Steven gasped.

"Is it cracked anywhere?" Steven said worriedly. "No" Pearl answered. Steven sighed in relief. "That's good" Steven said. "Yeah. I'm gonna go in my room" Pearl said as she turned to the temple door. "Pearl..." Garnet said, making Pearl stop. "Amethyst is going to be fine, ok?" Garnet spoke. "Yeah....I know..." Pearl said as she walked into her room. 'I know Amethyst is going to be fine. I mean all she did was poof. I'm pretty sure she's going to be fine. Why would Garnet tell me that, though?' Pearl wondered. She gracefully jumped to the center platform in her room.

Pearl looked down at Amethyst's gem. "I'm so, so, so sorry" Pearl whispered softly to the gem in her hands. Pearl laid down on her back, placing Amethyst's gem on her chest. She traced her finger over the outline of Amethyst's gem while staring upwards. A tear slowly strolled down Pearl's right cheek, followed by another. Pearl began to close her eyes, until she heard her name being called from outside her room. She grabbed Amethyst's gem and sat up.

Pearl wasn't sure if her name was really being called, but just to be sure, she replied. "Yeah?!" Pearl called out. "We have another mission! Com'on!" Garnet's voice called back, from outside Pearl's room. Pearl sighed and sat Amethyst's gem on the water. "I'll be back, ok?" Pearl said while looking at Amethyst's gem and standing.

Pearl jumped off the platform and landed on the water below it. She ran to the door, while opening her door with her gem. She ran out her room and onto the warpad. Steven greeted her with a smile. Pearl smiled and placed a hand on top of his head. Garnet placed a hand on Pearl's shoulder, getting Pearl's attention. "Amethyst will be fine....." Garnet said. Pearl became confused. 'Why does Garnet keep telling me this?' Pearl thought. Garnet warped them away to their mission location.
