Here's some Alexandrite for ya. Enjoy this even crappier chapter.

Steven jerked awake from his sleeping place. Peridot, now helping the gems defeat a new enemy, started worrying.

"Did you feel that?!" She asked.

"Feel what?" Amethyst asked her.

"The ground shake! It's the Cluster! First, there will be small tremors, then full scale earthquakes, and then the end!" Peridot said.

"No, it's not that! It's Bronzite!" Steven said.

"The fusion can shake the ground even from miles away?" Peridot asked.

"She is pretty big." Garnet said.

"When I was dreaming, I was in a watermelon Steven! While I was on their very nice island, I saw Bronzite!" He said.

"Sally has lost control. Who knows what Jasper would do to the Earth with a fusion as big as Bronzite." Garnet said. "All right, gems. Amethyst, Pearl and I will warp to Mask Island. Steven, you will stay here with Peridot. It's too dangerous for you." The gems ran to the Warp pad, and warped away, leaving Steven and Peridot.

The gems got to Mask Island, and saw Bronzite chained to the ocean with sand.

"Just give up! You're getting weak! I'll escape one way or another." She yelled. She broke loose of the chains and laughed. "I'm surprised how long who kept me prisoner. I didn't know you could be this strong since you're so defective. But, since we're going to be this abomination together, why don't we have some fun?" She said turning to the gems as if she could sense them.

"All right, let's put an end to this." Garnet said. Amethyst and Pearl knew what she meant and began dancing. Their forms combined into Alexandrite.

"Well, look who joined the party." Bronzite cackled.

"You're outnumbered!" Alexandrite yelled.

"I may be, but you're out of your league. You can't defeat us. And I can't wait to tear you apart!" She said raising giant hands made of sand. Alexandrite roared and charged after her. She dodged her punched, but Bronzite was able to grab her. Alexandrite spit fire, escaping. Bronzite laughed. "You think you're the only one with fire?!" She said raising her hands. She blasted fire, but Alexandrite used Opal's bow to shoot it down.

Bronzite jumped high into the air and summoned Jasper's helmet. She shot down at Alexandrite and they crashed into land. Alexandrite punched her in the stomach, causing Bronzite to fall backwards. She groaned standing back up.

"You really think you're something, huh? Like you can beat us? Like you can beat Homeworld? Well, we'll find a way to stop you. We always do!" Bronzite said punching Alexandrite. She took her by the left and slung her into the water. Alexandrite glowed, breaking apart, but she stayed together.

"Keep it together." She said to herself. Bronzite raised two sand hands and trapped Alexandrite in it. She turned it into strong glass, holding Alexandrite encased in it.

Just as Bronzite was winning, Watermelon Stevens came running out, attacking. At first, Bronzite found this funny and cute, until they started attacking from the air. They knocked her visor off, revealing for eyes. Two small top ones the color of Sally's, and two large bottom ones, the color of Jasper's. They punched her in the eye.

"Rah!" She yelled trying to get them off. After a minute, she got them off and started yelling at them, crushing them. "You think you can take me down?! You think you miniscule weaklings can harm me?! You're wrong! I'm the strongest fusion in existence! Nothing can take me down!" Bronzite shouted crushing the watermelon people. Alexandrite broke free and summoned Sugilite's flail. She slung it towards Bronzite and wrapped it around her. She pulled Bronzite towards her.

"Don't forget about me!" Alexandrite yelled punching Bronzite in the stomach. She summoned Sardonyx's hammer and knocked Bronzite into the air. She then summoned Opal's bow. "You two should spend some time apart." She said shooting it towards the falling fusion. The light pierced Bronzite's stomach, and she blew up.

Sally and Jasper, both knocked out, fell to the ground. Alexandrite caught them. She then crashed to her knees on the beach and unfused. The gems laughed, happy to defeat Bronzite. One watermelon Steven ran up and hugged Pearl.

"Steven?" She asked. He nodded. The gems laughed, happy to know he helped defeat her.

The ground started shaking, cracking up. Jasper slid through one of the cracks into the ocean. Garnet stopped Sally from falling though.

"The Cluster! Peridot was right! Steven, you have to wake up and stop the Cluster! The Warp was destroyed! We won't make it back!" Garnet said. Steven shook his head. "You have to! The Earth is depending on it! We'll be okay! We believe in you." Steven, on the verge of crying, nodded. As he slowly faded away, Garnet said one last thing. "We love you."

Steven closed his eyes and the body went limp. Garnet set it down and grabbed Sally.

"Let's go!" They were just about to jump into the ocean when someone flew up.

"Lapis?" Amethyst asked.

"What are you guys doing here?!" She asked.

"We had to separate Sally and Jasper!" Garnet said. She then realized how Lapis could help. "Take Sally back to Beach City! Take her to Steven so she can be safe!" Garnet said handing her to Lapis. Lapis placed her on her back. She shot into the air, leaving the gems.

"I just hope she's okay..." Pearl said, although she wanted to say 'I hope that even is Sally.'... But she didn't. She didn't want them to worry that she would kill them all, including Steven.

They jumped into the ocean, starting their journey back to Beach City.
