Outnumbered

I immediately thrust a fist at Doc, charged with electricity. Doc yelps and immediately lets go of my shirt. I now stand face to face in a one on four battle with the Rubies.

"Lucky. Let's see you try to get out of this!" Doc grabs one Ruby's arm and then another's. The last one holds the Rubies up. I smirk. I just defeated Malachite. There's no way I can lose to THEIR fusion.

The Rubies fuse into a giant Ruby. Only this time, Eyeball isn't fused with them, leaving two eyeballs behind Doc's visor. The giant lets out a roar as I spin dash towards her.

I get underneath her and I pull out my trusty whip. I spin dash around her, making a figure eight. I then pull and the fusion lands on its stomache. "Oof!" The giant growls. I jump up onto it's back.

I then run towards the head. Suddenly, light engulfs the Ruby and Doc strikes the destabilizer towards my chest. I gasp and another Ruby pushes me out the way. Another Ruby starts punching me across the face.

I jab an electric fist into her stomache, making her poof. I get up and two more Rubies charge towards me. "Pfft!" I lash out at the Ruby with the gem on its leg. The whip latches onto her leg and I send her flying into Doc.

Doc gets knocked over as the other Ruby shoves me down to the ground. She summons a weapon. I gasp and I move my head out of way as the ground breaks next to me. I then try to jab another fist in.

The Ruby catches it and she chuckles. "They don't call me a good arm for nothing!" She smashes her arm plate into my face. I can feel my face burning from the impact.

The Ruby does it again as I charge my fist with electricity. Each hit feels like another weight added onto my cheek. I can hear Rubies screaming nearby. I hear...poofing? Suddenly, the Ruby laughing above me also poofs.

In her place, stands Eyeball. She picks up her gem and places it over to a pile of Ruby gems. I press a hand against my face as Doc walks up to us. "You've got a lot of nerve talking back to me."

She glares at Eyeball. "I can't believe you had the absolute gall to go against your own team and fight against us like that. You truly are one worth shattering." She whips out the distabilizer.

"I'M GOING TO SHATTER BOTH OF YOU!" She raises the distabilizer and I zap Doc, knocking her back. Eyeball then strikes her...knife? Into Doc's chest, poofing her. I walk over to Doc and I attempt to bubble her.

"No! Don't. Put her on the pile with the other Ruby gems." I pick up the gem and I take it over to the pile. I then place it down. "Ok. Now you can bubble it." I pick up the pile and I create a single bubble for all of them.

I tap the top and the bubble dissapears. I look over at Eyeball. She smiles. "Uh...thanks for saving me back there."
"Eh, it was nothing." Peridot runs towards us with Lapis right behind her.

"What happened? Who is that?" I look over to Eyeball. "It's okay. I'm on your side. The others are...somewhere." "They're bubbled. All of them." Lapis walks towards the barn as Peridot walks up to us.

"So you came back, huh? I knew Steven's Neptune excuse wouldn't last." She shakes her head. "Yeah. We're kind of stupid." I give Eyeball a nudge.

"Not you, Eyeball! You totally annihilated them! A stupid Ruby can never do that." I give her a reassuring smile. She smiles back...and then she frowns. "Where's Jasper? I saw you with her gem. It was bubbled and you sent it off somewhere."

Peridot raises an eyebrow and faces me. "Amethyst, what happened while I was gone this morning?"
"Uh..."
"Hey, guys, we got an entire pile of gems in a bubble inside the barn!"

Eyeball looks over to me. "The barn?!" She facepalms. "Of course! Where else could she have went?!" She runs towards the barn and I follow right behind her. "Eyeball, wait!"
