Tch, I know there must be some other way. *turns to Peridot* Do you have any idea?

Hmm, how about we talk to her?

I know that. But as long as Lapis is in that form, I don't think she wants to listen to us.

Let's try to show her then.

What do you mean?

I have stored my tablet in my gem, with it I took many pictures of our life on earth. If we show her that, she might remember who she is.

Even so, we would've to approach her to show them to her, and that's very dangerous.

There's no need to do that.

Why not?

I can transfer the pictures from my tablet to the limb enhancers and project a giant hologram of the picture so she can see it from afar.

I see. Do that then!

However, the transfer will take a long time.

It doesn't matter, just do it!

(As Stevonnie and Peridot were talking. Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl fuse into Alexandrite.)

*looking for them around* Damn! Where are those traitorous clods hiding?

(Alexandrite appears behind the Lapis' giant water clone.)

Hey, over here!

*turns around* You fused, huh?

*roars* We don't have to fight, I don't want to hurt you!

Too bad, because I can't wait to tear you Gems apart!

Oh please, you're outnumbered.

Am I outnumbered? You sure about that?

(The whole area begins to rumble and shake as a large amount of water gushes out of the ground, destroying much of the site.)

I suggest you look around before you speak.

Hm? *looks around*

(All the gushing water forms three giant Lapis-shaped water clones.)

I see. Four-on-one, huh? It's not fair.

I'm the one who should say that. I only got one gem and you got four. But of course, it's only unfair when it happens to you, isn't it? We're four on four now... well, not exactly. I'm still one Gem, but I made four clones in my image and... I think you get the point, don't you?

I do.

Good, because I find it fair enough. Although if you wanna make it even fairer, just unfuse and go back to being four Gems so that each one takes on a clone.

No way, that's not gonna happen.

Then, don't complain. If I wanted to, I could easily make a whole army of water clones.

... I'm beginning to think Stevonnie was right. Anyway! I've just got to focus on the main water clone, which is the one Lapis is in.

Ha! You're out of your depth.

(Lapis' four water clones make and hurl a lot of water balls at Alexandrite, she destroys some of them and charges at the main water clone, Lapis dodges her and suddenly the whole area begins to shake and rumble again.)

Now what? *looks down* W-what the-?!!

(The ground Alexandrite is standing on begins to crack and a giant ice spike made by Lapis pop out of the ground in order to impale Alexandrite, she moved out of the way just in time, but the spike managed to graze her slightly.)

*surprised* What was that?!

You're fast, but...

(More and more giant ice spikes begin to emerge from the ground, Alexandrite dodging them with difficulty.)

*breathless* Tch! How difficult this is!

(Suddenly. The ice spikes stop emerging.)

*confused* Hm?

(Lapis's four water clones swiftly surround Alexandrite, and beginning to beat her incessantly.)

*screams in pain* Argh!! Gahh!!

(Alexandrite tries her best to fight back and manages to punch the clones, but her fists just phassed right through the water, causing no effect.)

*gasps* No way! *takes a big leap back*

Hey! Don't run away!!

Melee attacks are useless against water, and the worst part is that Lapis has extraordinary control over it.

Take this!

(Lapis makes several ice spikes from some water balls and immediately throws them at Alexandrite. She, however, destroys them with Amatist's whip.)

*summons Opal's bow* Then let's try long range! *fires a barrage of energy arrows*

(The energy arrows simply pierce right through the water clones, causing no effect.)

Hah! I don't even have to dodge, water doesn't have a physical body you can hit.

Oh gosh, that's right! There's no way to damage the water with physical attacks, either from close range or long range. Water is almost intangible!

Exactly. Now let's see if you are too!

(Lapis' four water clones make a water bow and arrow similar to Opal's)

Think fast!

(Lapis's four water clones fire a barrage of water arrows at Alexandrite, she does her best to dodge them, but ends up getting hit straight on because there were too many of them.)

*in pain* AAAHH!! *drops to her knees* That hurt... pretty bad. *moans* I didn't expect it to hurt so much. *stands up*

I can see you're hungry for more, aren't you!?

(Lapis' four water clones fire another barrage of water arrows at Alexandrite. This time she jumps up into the air as high as she can to dodge all the arrows.)

Ha! You can't fly, so you won't be able to dodge!

(Lapis' four water clones fire a barrage of water arrows at Alexandrite as she remains suspended in midair.)

Yep, I thought so too!

(Alexandrite summons Sardonyx's hammer and twirls it to ward off arrows.)

Phew! That was close. Now... *dives from the sky towards Lapis's main water clone* I have to separate her from the water!

What?!
