How on Homeworld I got stuck helping these clods, I don't know.

"Remind me again why I'm doing this?"

"I have a spear." Charoite called, unfazed.

"Right." I hate it when other people are right. "Wait a minute." I hate it even more when I'm wrong.

"What? What is it?" Charoite shouts.

"We can't get back! All the warps on Earth are cracked! We're trapped with no way to heal your friend!" Charoite growled.

"You mean to tell me all this was for nothing?" She ran at me, spear ready.

"Hey, don't make this my fault!" I screamed, scurrying up a nearby tree.

"Well who am I supposed to blame?" She challenged.

"BLAME ROSE QUARTZ FOR ALL I CARE!" In the distance, I heard a warp pad activate.

"See, I told you it would work!"

"Where are we?"

"Ugh, how to we know Peridork's even here?"

"WHY THE HELL HAVEN'T WE GONE LOOKING YET?"

"Well, I'm sure she knows we're here now, Ruby." Lapis's stern voice said. Charoite's focus faltered, and I took the chance.

I dropped from the tree and landed atop her.

"LAPIS JASPER HELP!" I screamed. Seconds later a Yellow flash flew past, and Lion stopped with the gems on his back.

"Peridot!" Lapis called, hugging me in relief. "Wait, Peridot." She slapped me.

"Ow!" Jasper chuckled.

"WHO'S SHE?" The tiny flameball asked?

"This is Charoite. Her friend Bloodstone is cracked. We need to get her to the fountain." Lapis nodded.

"Can Lion get us directly there?" She asked Connie.

"Now that we know where we're going, yeah."

"Great." I led Jasper to the cave, where she picked up Bloodstone and brought her to Lion.

"I hope this works..." Charoite muttered.
