Bloodshed
Welp, reunion's over. How am I going to answer this one? If I mention that I'm helping Jasper, Steven and Sapphire will probably lose it. Sapphire is already not smiling. She knows. I'm trapped. I can't lie.
What do I do? Should I chance it? No. Yes! Maybe. Oh geez. I sigh. "I..." I already notice my voice shaking. This isn't good. If this gives Steven the wrong idea, Ruby will be set loose on me once more.
I hold my arm for support. I take a deep breath. "I..."
"Amethyst, spit it out."
"I've been...I've been...helping Jasper." Steven's eyes widen. "WHAT?!" Sapphire remains silent. "You. You would never do that!"
He summons his sheild. "You stole my spit...for that creep?! She's terrible! Why did you do that?!" I gulp. "Steven, I can explain!" I look over to Sapphire. She turns away. It was nice seeing your smiles again, guys.
But as always, as the old saying goes, all good things must come to an end. Steven steps up to me and I back into the end of the bubble. "I can't believe you. I'm sorry, Amethyst. But I'm afraid, that was a really bad thing for you to do."
I start sobbing again. "No, Steven. Please. Not now! Steven, please stop! I don't want to hurt you! Just back away and calm down. I can explain everything." Ruby roars with fire coming out of her mouth.
She breaks free from the ice and she charges towards me. Steven steps aside for Ruby to finish me off. I tear up as I pull out my whip. "I'm sorry, guys." I lash out at Ruby. I zap her and she stumbles backward.
She jumps onto me and she punches me left and right. She then summons her gauntlet for extra damage. I try to punch her. But she catches my hand to stop me. She punches me an excessive amount of times over and over and over again.
There is only one way out this mess. I have to attack Steven and defeat him to let me out the bubble. I also have to get Lapis back as well. Peridot would be very upset if I lose her. I zap Ruby first a few times until she finally poofs after she gets another good hit on me.
I then get up and I pick up Ruby's gem. Steven and Sapphire gasp. "RUBY!"
"Amethyst, don't do it!" I throw it at Steven and he screams. Through tears, I lunge into him.
When we land, I punch him in the face and in the nose a few times as I also get punched as well. Sapphire rushes up to try to freeze me. I roll off of Steven for a moment as he coughs up some blood.
Nothing could destroy me more than seeing Steven, beaten up with blood pouring out of him. I close my eyes and I zap him. I could hear him screaming in agony. "STEVEN!" I open my eyes as Sapphire rushes towards me.
I zap her as well and I pull out my whip as Sapphire summons her own gauntlet. I lash out at her. She catches the end of it as I pull out another whip to catch her off guard.
She screams as the whip wraps around her. The spikes pop out and Sapphire, with a tear streaming down her face, poofs. I walk up to Steven and I reach down to pull Lapis out of his pocket.
He opens his eyes and he grabs my arm. He pulls me in and he punches me again. I really, really hate myself right now. I zap Steven once more and I keep doing it until he closes his eyes with his head slamming into the floor below us.
The bubble pops and we are underwater. I start sobbing again and I scream. I let out a torrent of bubbles, yanking my hair. I quickly grab Lapis' gem as I pull it out of Steven's pocket. I put it in my own and I look down at Steven.
If I leave him here, he'll die. He'll not only drown, but he will bleed to death as well. Blood seeps into the water as I stare down at Steven's fallen body. I can't bare to let things end like this. I really am a monster.
I look away to see Sapphire and Ruby's gems. If I leave them here, they can't regenerate. I would have murdered three innocent beings. "Leave them to die." I look around for Eloc...but he isn't there.
Even though I know I will regret it later, I grab Ruby and Sapphire's gems and I place them in my pockets with Lapis. I then grab Steven and I hoist him up over my shoulder. I start swimming back up to the surface.
