While Purple Tourmaline was playing around with Steven and Amethyst, still trying not to touch Steven at all, Garnet and Pearl were talking about how to catch Peridot.
"We have to keep looking for her. If we don't find her anytime soon, she could turn the injectors back on. Even though she didn't do anything to them last time, doesn't mean she still won't try to use them."
"I fully agree with you, Garnet. We have to find her soon," Pearl paused as Amethyst came running around her and slapping her in the face. Pearl growled, "Stop running around the house! Anyway, as I was saying, we mustn't waste time. Peridot could still be out there and doing terrible things to Earth!"
Garnet gave a nod. She walked to the warp pad, and signaled for Pearl to come forward. Pearl and stepped on the warp pad and Garnet yelled to Steven and Amethyst, "Come on, you two."
Steven and Amethyst stopped playing and walked to the warp pad.
"And you," she pointed to Purple Tourmaline, who slightly backed away. "We're trusting you to stay here on your own." Pearl interrupted, quickly, "I never agreed to this."
Garnet continued, "So if anything bad happens while we're away, or if we see you doing anything when we come back, you know the consequence."
Purple Tourmaline gulped and nodded, determined not to let the team down.
"Good. Now, bye." Garnet and the others warped away.
Purple Tourmaline felt incredibly awkward alone in someone else's home. She realized that she hasn't explored the home fully yet, and decided to look around some more.
After twenty minutes of opening cabinets and looking under furniture, opening doors and peaking under stairways, she finally finished and plopped down on the couch.
After about five minutes, she started dozing off, when she heard the door open.
It must be the gems, she thought to herself.
But the she realized, when would the gems ever use the door??
She looked up and saw a slim figure, it's head looked triangular and it had largely enhanced arms and legs.
She thought she recognized this figure, like she remembered it from somewhere.
Up... In space.
"Peri?"
The figure looked at Purple Tourmaline, with what she assumed was a surprised expression.
A small, nasally voice called back, "T...Tourmaline??"
