《Steven Universe: The Return [FanFiction English]》26. Did It Work?

[Twenty minutes later.]

*speaking through the communicator* I did it! I've finally managed to tap into the security cameras, they've been turned off; you can go in without any problem!

Copy that, I appreciate it.

Five minutes, my ass.

We've got a clear path now, let's go!

(The entrance to the storeroom opens and the dropship flies in smoothly. Once inside, they find Peridot as the site manager of the place.)

*looks out the windshield* Wow, look at Peridot. I'd forgotten what she looked like in those limb enhancers.

*looking out the windshield* So did I. Look, over there! *points to a group of Pearls* There are lots of Pearls.

True, but I don't see ours.

That's odd, she was supposed to be here.

(Peridot walks up to the pilot's side of the dropship.)

Alright, Nephrite, just hand me the report and have your crew bring the shipment down for the Pearls to sort and stow.

Sure, we'll get right on it.

*looking out t a window at Peridot* She's distracted, now's our chance!

*summons her whip* Let's go!!

(The doors of the dropship burst open, taking Peridot by surprise. Amethyst lashes her whip at Peridot and manages to wrap it around her body.)

*shocked* Wh-what the heck?!

I've got her!

(Amethyst ties Peridot up the same way she did in "Jailbreak" way back when.)

Well done.

Who the hell are you?! *struggles trying to break free* What are you doing here?!

We're your friends, and we're here to save your butt, you... CLOD!

Hey, don't steal my lines!

Shoot. I thought her favorite word would bring her back to normal.

Me too. Still, there must be a way to fix our friend.

Friend?! I don't even know you clods! I don't need anything fixed either, I feel great!

Mmm, what if we try with Camp Pining Hearts?

You're right. *turns to Peridot* Hey, Peri, do you remember your favorite show?

My favorite what?!

The classic great northern teen drama, Camp Pining Hearts.

Doesn't that name sound familiar, big P?

Not really.

Don't you remember Percy and Paulette? The best pair in the whole show.

...

(Peridot gasps as she flashes back to the day she saw Camp Pining Hearts for the first time.)

On the last episode of Camp Pining Hearts...

I don't care if you're on the yellow team, Percy. We can make this work.

It's the color war, Paulette. Does that mean anything to you?

(Paulette and Percy close in for a kiss as the brief flashback ends.)

Come to think of it, the reebot of the show wasn't too bad to say the least. What's more, Rodrigo and Jasmine were characters full of charisma, and-

How dare you say such a thing!?! *she shouted in anger*

Did it work?

It did.

(Peridot begins to glow, returning back to her current self.)

*enraged* I thought it was clear to you by now that Percy and Pierre are the most compatible and superior pair in the whole show! And don't give me that Rodrigo and Jasmine has more charisma than the original characters!

Chill out, Peridot. I didn't mean it.

(Peridotmakes an angry face and grunts.)

*sarcastically* "Oh, guys, thanks for saved me." - "Of course, Peridot, that's what friends do."

Oh, sure... Wow, thanks.

Welcome back, Peridot.

You know, being in this position brings back certain... memories of the past, so could you untie this whip on me now?

Oh. Sorry about that. *unties Peridot*

And now... *looks around* Where is Pearl?

*stands up* The Pearls ran away in panic when you attacked me, now they must be hiding around there.

(All the Pearls are hidden in a corner of the storeroom due to fear caused by what has happened.)

Guys, I just have found them! *points to the Pearls* They're in that corner.

What about our Pearl?

*looking for Pearl* I already saw her, she's here too!

Good, bring her here then.

(Amethyst walks up to Pearl and carries her in her arms.)

*trembling in fear* Wh-who are you? What are you going to do to me?!

We're not going to do anything to you, just keep quiet, will you?

*in tears* Please don't hurt me, I'm absolutely worthless! I'm just a mere, insignificant Servant Pearl!

Oh, c'mon! Since when are you a drama queen?

(It took them quite a while to get Pearl to have her memories back. They did it by doing something similar to what happened in the movie, and then they filled her in on the situation they are in.)
