Stevonnie: No way! Do we really have to fight them all? There's too many of them, the five of us won't be able to cope with so many Gem Soldiers!
Garnet: Stevonnie! Remember that Pearl, Amethysts and I can't fight!
Stevonnie: What the--?! What do you mean, you can't?!
Garnet: Alexandrite used up a lot of our energy in the previous fight.
Stevonnie: But I just healed you guys!
Garnet: You only healed our physical wounds, we need to rest a little to replenish our energies.
Stevonnie: I see. So... I have to take on all these Gems by myself, huh?
[Stevonnie takes a quick look at all the Gems around them and then takes a deep breath, steeling theirself.]
Stevonnie: All right, guys, stay behind me! I'll do my best to protect you!
Amethyst: Wait a minute! Those Gems are...
[Suddenly, some Gems move away from the others in the group and then approach Stevonnie and company, they turn out to be the Famethysts.]
Amethyst 8XJ: Don't panic, guys! It's us.
Amethyst: Famethysts! How's it going?
Amethyst 8XL: Uh, so-so. How are you doing?
Amethyst: I can't complain.
Amethyst 8XL: Ah, neat.
Amethyst: No, really, I can't complain. Just look at the mess we're in.
Amethyst 8XL: Oh...
Amethyst: By the way, what are you guys doing here?
Amethyst 8XL: We know that you told us to stay in one place.
Amethyst 8XJ: But we took the small liberty of helping the rest of our Amethyst friends remember who they are.
Random Quartz: *yells out* You Amethysts, what are you doing?!?!
Amethyst 8XJ: I almost forgot, we don't know most of the Quartz Gems, so we couldn't do anything for them.
Amethyst: Why didn't you say so earlier?!
Random Quartz: Amethysts, you miserable traitors!!! *shouts to her fellow Gems* Get ready to fight!!!
Amethyst 8XL: We're outnumbered.
Amethyst 8Xj: But that doesn't matter, we are soldier Gems and it's our duty to fight!
Amethyst 8XL: Exactly! *shouts* Amethysts, get ready to fight!
Stevonnie: Hold on! Please try not to poof any Gems so we can help them!
Amethyst 8XJ: Roger!
[The Amethysts summon their weapons.]
Random Quartz: Gems, get 'em!!
[The Amethysts and the Quartz Gems yell and charge at each other, starting a pitched battle, all against all.]
Amethyst: You can do it, Famethysts! Good luck!
Stevonnie: If you ask me, this isn't the most appropriate time for a pitched battle, you know.
[As the Amethysts and the Quartz Gems fight fiercely, one specific Gem Quartz pops up out of nowhere and charges from behind at Stevonnie.]
Garnet: Stevonnie, look out!
Stevonnie: What did you sa--?
[Stevonnie gets punched hard right in the cheek, causing them to fall down in pain.]
Stevonnie: *groans* That hurt, who was it?
[Stevonnie turns to the Gem and gasps in shock at the sight of her.]
??????: The hell are you?
Stevonnie: You are...
[The Gem Quartz has tangerine skin with reddish-orange markings on her face and arms. She has amber eyes and plump lips. Her gemstone is located where a normal nose would be. She has thick, beige-white-colored flowing hair.]
Stevonnie: Jasper, it's you!
Jasper: Your gem looks like a Rose Quartz, but your physical form is kinda... different?
Stevonnie: Jasper, please, let's just talk, shall we?
Jasper: Shut the hell up, you amorphous version of Rose Quartz!
[Jasper charges at Stevonnie with a spin dash, and Stevonnie catches her easily in their hand.]
Jasper: Nice catch.
Stevonnie: Jasper, I don't wanna fight you!
Jasper: I wouldn't wanna fight me neither!
[Jasper throws multiple punches, which Stevonnie dodges with ease. Stevonnie looks away for a second to make sure their friends are okay, Jasper then manages to punch them in the jaw, Stevonnie avoids losing their balance by backflipping away from Jasper.]
Jasper: Oh, c'mon, don't be a coward and fight me!!
Stevonnie: I don't have time to fight her, I must protect my friends.
Garnet: *shouts* Stevonnie, don't worry about us! We'll be fine!
Stevonnie: Huh? *turns to Garnet* Are you sure about that?
Garnet: Not entirely, but Peridot said she'd protect us.
Peridot: Of course, leave it up to me!
[Peridot turns her right limb enhancer into a plasma cannon.]
Peridot: I'll protect them with my limb enhancers!
Amethyst: And with your life if necessary.
Peridot: Yeah! ...Wait, what?
Stevonnie: Ok, I leave it up to you, Peridot.
Jasper: Fight me!
Stevonnie: I don't seem to have a choice... Let's fight, Jasper!
Jasper: Good. *summons her helmet*
Stevonnie: I didn't want to fight, but if I want you to remember who you are, I'll have to.
Jasper: Hope you're ready!
[Stevonnie gets into a fighting stance.]
Stevonnie: Bring it on, Jasper!
