Run

A small Ruby was looking at the Crystal Gems with a horrified expression. It took sometime for her to realise what she should do, but soon she summoned a zapper (aka a gem destabilizer), and started running at the gems while shouting for an unknown reason. The Crystal Gems had no other choice but to run. Well, fly, in Small's case.

F: "I blame you for this!"
LL: "You were the one shouting!!"
F: "Shh!!"

They continued to run, but the hallways seemed endless. Everyone was starting to get a little tired, even Ruby. But she kept running like the brave soldier she was.

RC: "We need to get out of here! My legs are going to go numb!"
PD: "Don't worry, Red! Just keep holding onto Cherry. We'll get out soon."
LL: "Jeez, she still hasn't come back? I wonder what's taking her so long."
F: "We don't need to worry about that now! Let's focus on-"
PD: "Look!"

There was finally an exit, but it didn't quite look like an exit. It could do for now, since everyone was getting so tired. Fluffy opened the door for the others. Everyone rushed in, as well as Fluffy. Just split second before Ruby could get in, she closed the door. A loud thump was heard from outside the door. After a moment of silence, Ruby yelled.

Ruby: "I'll get you someday, Crystal Gems!! I'll stay outside this door until you come out!"

Ruby sat down in front of the door and waited patiently.
Red Coral sat down onto the ground.

RC: "Finally!"

She sighed in relief.

F: "Yeah I gotta say that that was a pretty tough ruby."
PD: "Indeed.."

Fluffy looked around.

PD: "Uh, I think we might be pretty screwed."

The room was huge, but there was nothing inside. It was kind of murky, and unsettling.
Fleck coughed.

F: "Sooooo, who wants to explore?"
RT: "I do! I do!"
LL: "I think I should do it. I'm the quickest."
PD: "Sure. Just be as fast as you can. This room has to belong to a diamond, judging by its size, so we must be quick."

Small nodded, before flying off deeper into the room. He got to the other side when Yellow Diamond entered the room alongside Yellow Sapphire and Yellow Pearl. It seems this room was very similar to where Emerald's glass jail was. Everyone started panicking.

E: "Shh! Maybe she won't see us if we're being really quiet and don't move."
LL: "She's not a dinosaur! This is not Jurassic Park! Let's just r-"
YD: "What do you mean you didn't see it coming?!"

Yellow Diamond's voice echoed in the room.

YS: "I swear! It wasn't even possible! The lapis lazuli couldn't have possibly known where we were!"
YD: "Silence!"

Yellow Sapphire got silent instantly. After a minute of unsettling silence, the diamond spoke.

YD: "You've become rusty, Sapphire. I'd almost call you defective. "

Yellow Sapphire looked away, quite irritated. She then noticed the gems in the small entrance. She smirked.

YS: "Maybe, my diamond, you'd like to release some stress by shattering those rebels?"
YD: "What rebels-?"

She noticed them.

YD: "Oh, it's you."

Yellow Diamond frowned. She pointed her hand towards the Crystal Gems. A yellow electric blast was shot at them, but instead of hitting them, they were fast enough to avoid it so the door behind them was broken. Ruby had seemed to have taken a hit since the only thing left of her was her gem. The Crystal Gems started running on the hallway again. Yellow Diamond wouldn't be able to get them from there.

E: "What are we going to do?!"
PD: "Ahh!! We have to get Small! He got stuck in there with Yellow!"
F: "Oh for heaven's sake."

Fleck turned around and started running back to where they came from. It seems that Yellow hadn't noticed Small, as he was still fine. Yellow seemed to have left the room.

LL: "Missed me?"
F: "Ew, no. Fluffy just got worried is all. She doesn't want you to get shattered."
LL: "Well that's delightful."

Small flew through the huge hole that was on the door. Fleck followed.

It seemed the others hadn't wasted time, and had ran away. Fleck groaned.

LL: "Why didn't they wait for us? Did someone start chasing them or something?"
F: "I bet it has something to do with the ruby. I didn't see her gem anymore."
LL: "Well that's just great. I hope nobody got poofed. That would suck since we'd have to wait even longer for everybody to reform. Cherry and Amethyst are taking way too long. And I think Citrine is still away?"
F: "At least she was when I last saw the others."
LL: "God, they really should hurry up. I hate it when it takes like days for gems to come back."
F: "Yep, but they could be planning on something."
LL: "I doubt it. The only thing they could be planning is new outfits."

Fleck rolled her eyes. They got to the end of the endless hallway but no one was still visible. It's like everyone had disappeared.

LL: "Come on! How can it be so hard to wait for us?"
F: "Well I wouldn't wait if someone was chasing and tryna poof me. Just saying. Something must have happened."
LL: "Great. But I'm not going to wait for your slow butt so lemme fly you around."
F: "I'm not that slow. Give me some credit for running the whole way here."
LL: "Yeah yeah you're amazing n' all. Now take my hand."

Fleck grabbed Small's arms. He began to fly, but noticeably slower than earlier.

F: "Damn, you're weaker than I thought."
LL: "You're just fat."
F: "Excuse me?"

They argued pretty much the whole time they were flying. After about 10 minutes, Small dropped Fleck off. They argued for a few more minutes, before their argument for interrupted by Topaz.

IP: "Hey! Over here!"

She waved at them from behind a corner.
