[Chaos erupts around White Diamond's ship as the scattered Famethysts rally together, charging at the Agates as planned.]
Famethysts: Let's go!!!
Random Agate 1: *shocked* What the fuck?!
Random Agate 2: Who are you Gems?!
Amethyst 8XJ: You'll find out soon enough! Amethysts, let's take 'em down!
[The Famethysts clash with the Agates, engaging in battle.]
Meanwhile..
[Nice Lapis and Mean Lapis summon their water wings, soaring into the sky.]
Nice Lapis: *frightened* Pa-Partner, wh-what just happened?!
Mean Lapis: No idea. That fucking ship just came outta nowhere.
[The Battleship's cannons fire again, unleashing a barrage of energy blasts that devastate everything in their path. Within seconds, the nearly one hundred enemy Gems were reduced to just over forty.]
Mean Lapis: Ugh, what a shitshow. I just hope Emerald doesn't pin this on me. I'm not in the mood for another one of her goddamn reprimands.
Nice Lapis: Uhm… maybe we should do something before this gets even worse?
Mean Lapis: Oh, right.
[Both Lapises raise their hands in unison, and instantly, the entire area begins to rumble violently.]
Garnet: Amethyst, restrain them! Don't let them use their powers!!
Amethyst: *summons two whips* On it!
[Amethyst lashes her whips at both Lapis Lazulis, wrapping them tightly around their bodies.]
Mean Lapis: *startled* What the--?!
[Amethyst cracks her whips, sending violet energy waves that strike both Lapis Lazulis dead-on. The ensuing explosion sends them hurtling through the air, slamming brutally into a nearby boulder.]
Nice Lapis: *wincing in pain* Agh... th-that hurt so much
Mean Lapis: *in pain* Tell me about it…
[Both Lapises struggle to get back on their feet, visibly injured after being struck by Amethyst's energy wave.]
Nice Lapis: *weakly* Wow, they're strong.
Mean Lapis: *glaring* Not strong enough to take us down, though! *clenches her fist*
[The ground rumbles violently, then cracks open as a giant water hand bursts from it.]
Steven: Whoa...
[Steven rushes in, followed by Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl.]
Steven: Hey, that's enough!
Nice Lapis: *pointing* Look, partner! It's Steven Universe! He's here too!
Mean Lapis: I can see that.
[She narrows her eyes as she glares at Steven.]
Mean Lapis: So, tell me, Steven... are you the one we have to thank for this little surprise attack?
Steven: Well, uh... sort of.
Mean Lapis: ... Sort of? What the fuck does that mean?! Ugh, whatever. You've saved us the trouble of hunting you down.
[Mean Lapis snaps her fingers, and instantly, the water hand clenches into a fist.]
Mean Lapis: This ends now, Steven! You'll pay for everything you've done! And the price...
[Mean Lapis swings the water fist downward like a hammer, aiming to crush Steven.]
Mean Lapis: …is your life!
[The water fist slams down onto the Crystal Gems, trapping Garnet underneath it and knocking Pearl, Steven and Amethyst aside.]
Steven: Guys!
[Garnet, however, effortlessly breaks free of the water fist and punches it away.]
Mean Lapis: *shocked* No way!
Garnet: You were right, Steven. Their control over water falls far short of Lapis'.
Mean Lapis: Oh, you think so!? Well, let's see if you still think that after you witness what we're really capable of!
[Both Lapises summon their water wings, soaring high into the sky. Suddenly, violent torrents of water burst from the cracks in the ground, surging upward.]
Steven: *shouting* Everyone, watch out!
[The water quickly gathers into a huge sphere that hovers above Steven and the others.]
Amethyst: *in fear* Uh, guys... what's the plan now!?
Garnet: Peridot! NOW!
Steven: *confused* Huh?
In The Distance.
[Peridot activates her limb enhancers, firing a tractor beam that ensnares both Mean Lapis and Nice Lapis, completely immobilizing them in their tracks.]
Peridot: Gotcha!
[Peridot retracts her tractor beam, pulling it back toward herself. The two Lapises, now ensnared, remain frozen in place, unable to move or utter a single word.]
Garnet: Well done, Peridot. Just like we planned.
[The water that both Lapises had gathered suddenly falls back down, flowing back into the ground as if nothing had ever happened.]
Steven: *still processing* What just happened?
[Peridot and Connie walk towards Steven & the Crystal Gems, all of them regrouping in one spot.]
Steven: When did you two come up with all of this?
Garnet: While you were busy talking about nicknames and other nonsense, Peridot and I were putting together an extra backup plan. Just in case.
[Garnet says, adjusting her visor.]
Connie: Guess having two backup plans is better than just one, huh?.
Peridot: *proudly* Most of it was my idea, by the way.
Steven: I see.
Amethyst: So, what do we do with those two now?
[Amethyst glances over at the two Lapises, frozen in Peridot's limb enhancers, their bodies stiff and motionless.]
Amethyst: Do we take them with us?
Peridot: *shrugging* Not like we've got any other option. If we let them go, they'll just come after us again.
Amethyst: Should we just poof them, then?
Steven: Wel--
[A sudden explosion cuts him off, causing everyone to flinch in alarm.]
Steven: What was that?!
[The group looks up at the sky, their eyes widening in shock. The Battleship is now completely surrounded by Homeworld ships.]
Steven: No way!
[Each of the Homeworld Ships fires once again, unleashing a devastating barrage of energy blasts and missiles that strike the Battleship head-on, causing it to shudder violently upon each impact.]
The Battleship's Bridge.
Captain Gem: Fuck! They surrounded us faster than I thought! *to her crew* All hands, brace yourselves and return fire immediately!
[The Battleship strikes back, firing its plasma cannons at the homeworld Ships. The crew manages to shoot down a few, but for every one that falls, two more appear in its place.]
Crewgem 1: *panicked* Shit! Th-There's too many of them! And more just keep coming!
Crewgem 2: *in fear* This is a losing battle! We're completely outnumbered!
[Suddenly, an alarm begins blaring and warning alerts pop up on every screen in the control room.]
Crewgem 3: *checking the control panel* Our shields won't hold out much longer, Captain! What do we do no--?!
[The Battleship shudders violently as multiple missiles strike its hull, sending a wave of explosions ripping through the interior.]
Crewgem 3: *horrified* We're finished! All our shields are gone!!
Captain Gem: *shocked* No... this can't be happening!
[The crew fights back fiercely, shooting down as many Homeworld ships as possible. But despite their efforts, the enemy's sheer numbers prove too much.]
Steven: They...
[Steven watches in horror as the Battleship is engulfed in flames, its structure beginning to break apart as it plummets violently toward the ground.]
Steven: NOOOOOO!!!
[The Battleship crashes into a hill in the distance and explodes upon impact. A shockwave ripples through the landscape, sending rubble flying in every direction.]
Steven: *worried* Those Gems… I have to make sure they're all right.
