A sandstone column collapses and forms a pile of sand. The Gems begin to climb over the pile.
"W-Water...Water...So thirsty...For water." Steven crawls onto the pile after Garnet as Isabella and Pearl walk after them.
"It'll be safer if you stand up and walk." Pearl told him.
"You don't... understand. This. Is how. You're supposed to act... in the desert." Steven pants as Isabella rolls her eyes and helps him up. He leans against her as she pats his head.
"Is this the right place?" Isabella asks.
"Yes. The power in the structures have turned aimless." Garnet explains as a sandstone column collapses in the distance.
"It's building columns with no roofs, stairs that go nowhere! This is out of control!" Pearl exclaims.
"Then I guess we better..." Amethyst jumps over Steven and rolls down the sand pile, "... roll on over there. Heheh."
"That was a bit unnecessary." Pearl told her.
"Nuh-nuh nuh nuh nuh, nuh nuh nuh nuh." Amethyst mocks her.
"Excuse me?!"
All of a sudden, there was a loud roar out of nowhere.
"What was that?" Steven asks.
"It sounded like it came from over there." Isabella points.
Amethyst stands up, "Let's go!"
"It'll be best if you stay here, Steven." Garnet told him.
"We'll be quick." Pearl adds as she and Amethyst walk ahead.
"What if something eats me?!" Steven says worriedly.
"Do not worry," Garnet wipes the sweat off the boy's face, flicking it back at him, "Wet One. There's nothing out here that can harm you. Your sister will protect you. See you soon." she jumps off to catch up.
"Okay."
"Let's get under the shade." Isabella leads him under a column.
"It's. So. Desert." Steven puts his shirt over his eyes.
"Tell me about it." Isabella ties her hair up in a ponytail.
A growl causes the two siblings to look around.
"What was that?" Steven looks around.
"I don't know." Isabella scans her surroundings.
"Nothing can harm me. I, am the Wet One." Steven says.
"Are you kidding?" Isabella snickers as they both look and see a shadowy figure looking at them with glowing eyes.
The two siblings gasp and run behind the column.
"Good thing this column was here." Steven says as the column collapses.
"You had to say it!" Isabella panics.
