Isabella and Steven stood in a room by theirselves.

"I know Mom did something really bad. Whatever Homeworld has in store for us... I'm ready!" Steven says as silence ensues, "I said, I'm ready!"

"Hey! It's us, Rose Quartz!" Isabella shouts.

"Hello? Anybody?"

"Lars? Are you there?" 

"Is this the punishment?" Steven asks.

"Come on! We know it's going to be worse than this!" Isabella yells.

"So whatever you're going to do... Would you just do it already?" Steven slumps against his sister.

A door opens in the wall and a blue gem walks in, panels floating all around her as she looks nervous, "This is ridiculous! 4,000 years of loyal service to the court, and this is what I get? Oh, I'm the unluckiest Zircon in the galaxy!" she then gasps in surprise as she notices the two, "Wait, are one of you... Rose Quartz?"

"Yeah..." Steven trails off.

"We both are." Isabella adds.

"...Really?"

"It's a long story." Isabella says.

"Then I don't have time for it! Ugh! We only have this brief moment to prepare your case."

"Case?" Steven asks.

"Ugh! Who am I kidding? This is pointless! We've all heard the rumors about the demise of Pink Diamond, but I can't believe these files." Zircon scrolls through the floating panels, "Shattered by one of her own soldiers? Ugh! In front of her entire entourage!?" she turns to the two siblings, "And look at you now! Those ridiculous disguises are only going to make you look more guilty!" she curls up in fear.

"That's fine, because we are." Isabella states.

"Whoa! Wha- Don't say that! Especially when you're out there!"

"Out where?! What's going to happen!?" Steven asks.

Isabella places a hand on his shoulder, "I think we're going on trial."

The door opens again as Zircon freezes in shock.

...

Isabella and Steven were sitting in the middle of a triangle shaped platform, along with Zircon, who looks nervous. Three pathways light up in blue, white, and yellow, and another Zircon warps into the room, the color yellow and acting as the prosecutor.

"Defending a rebel? Isn't that... treason?" Yellow Zircon chuckles.

"I was assigned to this!" Blue Zircon told her as two lights, blue and yellow, emerge, Blue and Yellow Pearl warping in.

"All rise for the luminous Yellow Diamond!"

"And the lustrous Blue Diamond."

Another light beams in behind the Pearls, and Yellow and Blue Diamond warp in, with Blue Diamond resting on Yellow Diamond's shoulders. They both gaze down towards Isabella and Steven, as both Zircons make the Gem salute.
