QUESTION AT THE END
Steven couldn't sleep that night. He kept thinking about what Garnet said about how Robert was trapped in a hell he made himself. Steven crawled out of bed and pressed his face to the prism cell. "Robert? Can you hear me? It's me, Steven!" he whispered. The cell became colder and there was no response. Pearl put a hand on Steven's back. "I'm sure Robert is handling himself just fine" Pearl stated. For some unknown reason, Steven highly doubted it. "He's probably getting beat up by Jasper...or reliving the explosion...or worse!" Steven stammered nervously. Amethyst hopped up the loft and spoke up. "He's the Merciless Executioner, he doesn't get beat up, he beats up his enemies" She piped in. Garnet appeared behind everyone. "He's been through more than you know. I don't know exactly what, but I know his life was never sunshine and rainbows." She said. Pearl thought about the predicament. "We shouldn't be sitting around letting Robert possibly die, we should go in there and aid him." she said. Lion was pawing at the door. Steven noticed and let him in Connie came in after him. Lion puffed out his mane. Steven thought he wanted comfort. Lion shook his head. "Check his mane!" Amethyst suggested. Steven walked in.
Thirty seconds later, he came out with a royal blue book with gold letters spelling "Robert" on the front. "Robert keeps a diary?" Pearl asked. Connie mimed writing in a book. "Dear Diary, I'm the biggest loser in the whole planet! My mom wanted me to be an abortion, since my dad's condom broke!" She said. Lion glared at her and she gave him the stink eye. "Connie, Why are you here this late at night if you're only going to taunt Steven's friend?" Pearl asked. "I was GOING to have a sleepover, but apparently I wasn't aware this frozen autistic [swear word] more important than our friendship!" Connie explained. She gave Steven bedroom eyes when she said that, which he blushed and got nervous. "You're lucky he's frozen, or he'd kick your butt" Amethyst said. Connie rolled her eyes. "I've got a sword" she muttered under her breath.
Peridot entered the room. "I have knowledge of an ability of Rose Quartz that may help this 'Robert' you wish to aid. She used to attack enemies from inside by going into their subconsiouses and attacking from the inside, and was able to have allies such as Pearl aid her in the attack." Peridot stated. "Yes, your mother was able to go into their dream worlds, usually Greg's when they met. I don't know what they did, but it must have been beautiful." Pearl added. "But I doubt she would ever harm him." Steven understood this and joined hands with Amethyst and Pearl. Pearl joined with Garnet, Amethyst joined with Peridot, and she joined with Garnet. "Don't worry Robert, We're coming!" said Steven
