happily ever after, there we were.

Arrogance.

-Margo's POV-

Yellow Diamond shot at Taaffeite, but Red and Jade deflected her attack. Red summoned her flame and Jade summoned her vines littered with thorns. Soon, it'll be a free-for-all. Steven and Connie cleared the way for me to carry Luna onto the Warp Pad. Once we were back on Earth, I looked down and Luna looked wain and powerless. "Luna, a-are you okay? Wake up!" I shook her slightly but she only groaned. We got inside Steven's house and I placed her on his bed. Steven paced his room and Connie and I sat on both sides of the bed. 

"I-I'm gonna go to Little Homeworld, maybe one of the gems there know what to do." We nodded in unison and Steven left the room. I sat on the floor and covered my face. 

I didn't know what to do. 

Am I going to lose her?

I started to cry at that thought and Connie came to my side. "This gem stuff is difficult, trust me." She sat next to me and hugged me. "I promise she'll be okay." I moved my hands and wiped my eyes. 

"I've been with her my whole life. All we had was each other. I know it's not like that anymore, but I'm not ready to let her go... not now." I looked up at Luna and watched as she breathed. 

"I'll let you stay up here with her." She got up and smiled at me before walking downstairs. I scooted closer to the bed and held Luna's hand. All I could do is wish for her to wake up.

On Homeworld, they ceased their fighting and had Taaffeite, Red, and Jade tied up. The diamonds had begun interrogating the trio. 

"What did you do to her?" Blue asked.

They didn't respond and Yellow shot at them again, causing them to scream. 

"Staying silent won't get you anywhere. Speak up." Yellow explained, agitated. 

"I sent her to sleep, she'll need it since she won't have her powers anymore." Taaffeite didn't look at the other diamonds.

"What?" White exclaimed.

"The power she possesses is detrimental to our diamond authority. I will have proper control over it, knowing that it won't be in her hands anymore."

After that, the three of them broke from their binds and held hands. Suddenly, they disappeared, as if they warped without a warp pad. 

"Crystal Gems, head back to Earth and explain the situation to Steven. We'll prepare the course for Andromeda." The gems nodded and warped back to Earth. 

The diamonds were astounded that they could feel so nonchalant about the demise of an organic. 

It reminded them of the arrogance they once had.
