Sorry that this took so long despite the fact it's so short! I keep forgetting to get on this site, and school started, not letting me have much time to write. Again, I am dearly sorry and I am sure to be updating this more often!

Zircon laughed as Amethyst ran upstairs, staring daggers at the fusion.

"Zircon? It's been forever since I've seen you."

Zircon glared at Amethyst before giggling. "Indeed! It sure has been awhile!"

The purple gem was blankly staring at Zircon's hands. "You have... two... arms..."

Zircon looked at Amethyst before looking at her shoulders, noticing the lack of another pair. She gasped, her eyes widening. "Wow, it really has been quite a bit since our last fusion."

Steven sat down, staring at Zircon in amazement.

"Zircon..."

Garnet and Pearl ran upstairs to look at Zircon. Garnet's face lit up in happiness.

"Garnet!" Pearl stared at the huge smile.

Garnet was smiling. Pearl continued to stare at her.

"It's... a perfect fusion."

Zircon's eyes widened before she split apart, her components falling to the ground. Peridot was visibly embarrassed, blushing hardly as possible. Lapis was still keeping herself in Peri's arms before she noticed that Zircon unfused. She got off the ground, awkwardly looking at everyone as she quietly stood there. Peridot got up, smiling happily before she held up Lapis, twirling her around in the air as she laughed.

When she let the smaller gem go, Amethyst ran up to Peridot and gave her a high-five, laughing from happiness. "Congrats, man!"

Peridot was still grinning, despite the fact she had no idea what Amethyst meant. "What?"

"Congrats on the perfect fusion!" Amethyst grabbed some glitter and threw it around the area, getting all over Garnet and Pearl. Pearl groaned as Amethyst blushed, the glitter sticking in her hair.

"AMETHYST!"

Amethyst laughed. Steven was amazed by the scene, watching everything happen from a distance, glitter landing on his hands.


In the space of her gem, hearing everything going on despite not being in her humanoid form, Jasper sat down quietly. She sighed, looking through her memories.

"We used to be so close," she whispered to herself, "what happened?"

"I did everything. Maybe I'm just-"

She punched the neverending space inside of her gem, nothing being there. "I CAN'T FUCKING DEAL WITH THIS SHIT! MALACHITE HASN'T BEEN SEEN IN YEARS AND YEARS! NEITHER HAS EMERALD! GAH!"

She groaned loudly, sobbing into the void of her gem. As she was left alone with her overwhelming thoughts and issues, her urges to escape her gem prison got stronger and stronger with each breath. She couldn't just reform like this; no, she would try to murder someone. She would tear down something.

Her arms on the sides of her head and her legs scrunched up, she tried her best to completely deposit all feelings, all memories, and all plans.

As she was distracted by trying to wipe out her mind, her anger and urges wormed in silently through the depths of her mind, eventually making it. Her eyes opened, letting off a faint glow as she stood up.

The being stomped while laughing insanely, eventually letting the light on the walls of the sharp gem consume her.

She felt herself get larger, as if her spirit was finally returning back into its body. The gem began to glow, fitting right onto Jasper's nose in a series of bright, cold flashes.

Jasper, the gem who had tried to destroy Pearl earlier, was reformed, brought back into the "real world".

With the loud noise of feet slamming against a ground vibrating through the house, the light finally disappeared as Jasper's eyes opened. She pushed herself off of the ground.

A single speck of glitter was falling through the air, landing on Jasper's gem. She brushed it off, growling as she looked up to the source of the glitter.

Upstairs.
