Steven: *terrified* Wh-wh-what'd you just do?!
Emerald: It's over, Steven! *laughs*
[The Diamond blast slowly approaches the planet until it collides with the atmosphere.]
【In Homeworld.】
[Hundreds of Gems are horrified at such an event, so they embrace each other expecting the worst.]
Amethyst: *in fear* G-Guys!
Pearl: *in fear* Here it comes!
Garnet: Guys, brace for impact!
[Teary-eyed, Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl embrace each other tightly.]
Pearl: It was a pleasure to have met you.
Amethyst: Same here. You guys have been the best thing that ever happened to me.
Garnet: It was good while it lasted, the time we spent together is irreplaceable.
Pearl: Whatever happens, I will always love you guys.
Garnet: Me too.
Amethyst: I love you guys!
[The Crystal Gems hug each other tighter, ready for what's to come.]
【At the same time.】
[Bluebird unfuses back into Aquamarine and Eyeball.]
Aquamarine: It's all over for us.
Eyeball: Yep. The worst thing is we couldn't carry out our revenge on Steven.
Aquamarine: That's a shame. At least I'll get to see your silly face one last time, my dear.
Eyeball: Same to you, my silly.
[Aquamarine and Eyeball embrace each other, bracing for impact.]
Spinel: *terrified* Six thousand years waiting in a lonely garden, and only for it to end like this!
Pink Pearl: *terrified* Eight thousand years being controlled, and only for it to all end like this!
Spinel/Pink Pearl: It's not fair, I couldn't enjoy my new life at all!
[Pink Pearl and Spinel look at each other and then hug.]
Spinel: *crying* Who would have thought that two of the Pink Diamond's Gems would end up just like her?
Pink Pearl: *tearfully* Yes, it seems that now we'll keep her company, wherever she is.
【Meanwhile.】
Jasper: So this is how it ends, huh?
[Jasper looks around, she then spots many Gems hugging each other and trembling in terror.]
Jasper: Hah! No fears and no regrets at all 'till the very end! *makes the diamond salute* It's been a pleasure to have served you... My Diamond! *she said looking up at the sky *
【At the same time.】
Peridot: Hey, Connie, you'd better get off the planet as soon as possible!
Connie: Huh?!
Lapis: You won't be affected by the diamond attack!
Peridot: But we don't know what could happen to us.
Lapis: This place will get dangerous, you better not be here when that happens.
Peridot: Yeah! Find a ship and get back to Earth as fast as you can! And for your safety, don't even think of coming back here! Ever!
Connie: No way! I can't just leave you guys here!
Peridot: I understand how you feel, yet this time there's absolutely nothing we can do to get out of this.
Lapis: But you still can!
Peridot: Exactly! Steven wouldn't want you to stay here to die!
Connie: I know, but–
[The diamond blast is already very close to everyone.]
Lapis: *in fear* Oh, no!
Peridot: It's too late!
[Lapis suddenly hugs Peridot.]
Lapis: *in tears* Peridot, after all I've been through, I never thought I'd say this but... I think I love you!!
Peridot: *tears up* Wow, thanks!
[The glow completely engulfs the whole place, including all the Gems present. It is a blinding light, literally nothing can be seen around.]
Connie: *covers her eyes* G-Guys!? Oh, gosh! I can't see anything!
[Connie desperately shouts up to the sky.]
Connie: Steven!!
