Chased

Well, looks like that's it. It's not. My form finally gives away. I bail and ditch the plan. I collapse in my normal form right in front of Steven. Everything stood silent for a moment.

Steven widens his eyes, gasping as he takes a step back. "What the-!" He steps up to me and he reaches for my mask. He pulls it away from my face and he grits his teeth.

"Amethyst?" I gulp. "Heh heh heh. Whoops." I grab the pan and I run. "It was nice playing with you! Goodbye, Steven!"
"WHAT?!" I run back to the temple as I hear Steven chasing me from behind.

We both pant as we race to the temple. "I'm not letting you get away, Amethyst! Not this time!" I can hear him summoning his shield. I keep running and I don't look back. I duck as the sheild flies right over my head.

The temple isn't far now. "Why do you want my spit?!" I can't answer. If I do, I'll lose speed or worse, stamina. I run up the steps. "AMETHYST!" Steven stomps on them as I get on the warp pad. I pick up the bubble and I immediately warp away to safety.

I pant as I hold the spit pan and the bubble. I breathe heavy breaths as I hold the bubble to my chest. "There, Jasper. I risked everything for you. You owe me big time!" I let go of the warp and I collapse on the barn's warp pad.

Lapis and Peridot run up to me. "AMETHYST!" I get up, grunting and panting. I step off the warp pad. "I...I'm never...doing that...ever again." "What happened?"
"Why is Jasper's gem cracked?"
"What is that thing?"

I pop the bubble and Jasper's gem starts glowing. The two gasp in anger. "What did you do?!"
"Why did you do that?!" I reach into the spit pan containing mine and Steven's spit and I slap it on Jasper's gem before she completely reforms.

She gets up and looks around. She sees Lapis and Peridot. She then turns around to face me. I collapse again, panting and coughing. I bubble the pan and I tap the top to send it into the barn.

I stuggle to get up and then I see Jasper offer me a hand. My eyes shine in the the sunset. Jasper smiles. "Looks like I underestimated you, Amethyst. Thank you." I smile back as I cough.

Lapis and Peridot just stare at us, speechless by what just happened. "I can't believe it."
"Did she really reform her?" I take Jasper's hand to get up from the ground. "Heh. Welcome to the barn, Jasper."
