24-Yes
Spinel and Steven were revolving in a kind of giant and pink trampoline, the duo has fun while jumping in any direction, as they shoot at high speeds just to fall back on the trampoline, although this was certainly dizzy. In that place the gem and the hybrid shared the same dream due to the powers of the second "This is great! How did you say this was called?" Spinel asks excitedly before taking a giant leap.
"Trampoline!" Steven exclaims as he falls back to the trampoline, so the friends duo continued playing for a while until the hybrid remembered something "Hey. We forgot to tell Peridot of my idea" Steven suddenly mentions, he falls on the trampoline once more, facing the surface.
"Oh, yes. Well, we can tell her later," Spinel says calmly, she lifts the hybrid, which in turn sits down to think "What do you think?" The pink gem asks instantly, stretching her neck to have her head next to Steven's.
"Do you think my idea could work?" The hybrid asks Spinel, who for her part scratches her chin thoughtfully, on the one hand the pink gem goes to stand in front of Steven a few moments, before raising her shoulders with innocent ignorance, which makes Steven sigh with doubt.
"We have no way of knowing, maybe the rejuvenator works or doesn't" Spinel Sentence with simplicity "In the best case, we recover Ruby, in the second best, it does not affect her at all and in the worst result we could lose Ruby forever "The pink gem states simply, but the hybrid is baffled.
"Forever?!" Steven asks worried, to which Spinel explained her point quickly.
"Well, corruption seems to be a phenomenon of the Earth. If it affects the physical form of a gem. Would the rejuvenator send it at the beginning of its corrupt form or send it at the beginning of the gem as such? I mean that in one Ruby does not it would change its corrupt state at all and in fact it would lose her memories, and in the other we only lose Ruby's memories.In the case that it is the first of these scenarios, it would mean that we have a corrupt gem unable to remember Sapphire, Pearl , Amethyst or you, and perhaps there is no way to return the memories to a corrupt gem the same way we did it with you" Spinel tries to explain, although the movements of her stretched arms make it all more confusing for the hybrid.
"Losing Ruby ... losing Garnet" The hybrid exclaims sadly, to which he feels Spinel's hands gently patting his head.
"Hey, don't put that long face" Spinel sentence bringing her smiling face to Steven "Do you want to see how I touch my elbow with my tongue?" The pink gem offers moving her face away from the hybrid quite surprised by the question, Spinel stuck out her tongue normally but then stretched her elbow towards her tongue "Ta da!" Spinel exclaims as a kind of achievement.
"That was great Spinel" Steven exclaims with a small smile, a gesture well received by the pink gem that happens to jump on the trampoline "I think we should wake up" Steven mentions calmly, but then comes the confusion of the gem.
"How do we do it?" Spinel questions curiously, to which Steven looks for a way to explain his answer.
"Well, sometimes you wake up for something that happens in the real world, sometimes you wake up for yourself and sometimes what happens is that the dream is so scary that it wakes you up" Steven explains to the gem, which in turn tries to wake up giving herself a blow in the dream, but it does not work, meanwhile the hybrid tries to concentrate but they did not get anything.
The duo continues trying to wake up, but it seems useless until finally the place begins to turn a bright red color, Steven was a little terrified, he did not like that situation, while Spinel was between expectation and sudden panic. The trampoline begins to stretch in front of the hybrid and the gem, taking a form similar to a blanket that seemed to be on a humanoid figure, Steven realized that the blanket looked like his mother in contour but he knew she was not under the blanket.
On the other hand Spinel took a few steps forward, trying to uncover the blanket, but under it a pink glow began to appear, in the silhouette you can see a shape, with fluffy hair, a comic attire and a thin complexion. But the glow had finally blinded the hybrid and the gem. An almost inaudible shout rumbles in their heads "She's goneeeeeeee!"
******
Steven and Spinel had suddenly woken up, causing the head of the gem to collide with the head of the hybrid, both falling down the ground where there was no straw, the only thing that cushions the duo's fall was a blanket that had previously been on them " If that had not been as weird as that was, I would like to sleep a little more "Spinel exclaims a little cheerful and with a smile, she sticks to the straw she had used as a bed.
"I'm glad you liked it but we have to go see Peridot" Steven sentences and smiles as he charges Spinel down in his arms, to his misfortune the pink gem began to tickle him, leading the hybrid to quickly laugh. Both fall from the second floor on some of the pieces of machinery in the barn. They scare Peridot, who was sitting waiting near the drill "Peridot!" Steven greets leaving the scrap, although he has to take out Spinel who had become entangled like a ball of ribbons.
"Oh, it's only you" The green gem sentence after having overcome the fright trying not to be ashamed, but in reality Spinel had only stuck out her tongue while Steven looked inside the barn.
"Where are Ruby and Sapphire?" Steven asks Curiously about Peridot, who was actually the only gem inside the barn to surprise the hybrid, that corner where the blue and red gem had been entrenched was now vastly empty. For its part, the green gem had the answer.
"Ruby seems to have tired of being still, and Sapphire pursued her. Ruby is currently banging her head against a tree, or chasing squirrels, the truth, I don't care," Peridot explains indifferently, the hybrid at this nods with some joy, to consternation of Peridot. The green gem takes a short time to also notice a smile in Spinel also "What's up?" She asks a little nervous about her safety.
"We need your help, we believe there is a way to be able to bring Ruby back if we rebuild the gems rejuvenator" Steven exclaims hopefully, but Peridot is blunt with a quick hand movement.
"No" The green gem responds simply, she surprises the hybrid that turns his face into a grimace.
"Why not?" Steven asks perplexed, his heart going up his throat in a sudden panic.
"I don't have time Steven! We're at this, from the end of the world" Peridot screams as she makes a small space between her fingers to point out how close the awakening of the Cluster was "We can't waste time to stop The Cluster!" What does it matter if Ruby is corrupt about the end of everything on Earth ?! " The green gem recriminates him alarmed, but for his part Steven seems increasingly nervous.
Spinel for his part stretches to lift Steven and pat him on the back "Hey don't worry, surely when everything about The Cluster ends Peridot is going to help us" The pink gem sentences with joy as she approaches the hybrid in a hug, meanwhile Steven clung to Spinel with some tears. Spinel's response resonates, as she watches Peridot directly while giving her support to the hybrid, a small, uncomfortable smile formed on the face of the green gem.
At the beginning the only sound was Steven's occasional groans and Spinel's pats, but suddenly Amethyst enters without giving much importance to the matter until she sees Steven tearful "What happened here?" The purple gem asks worried, before Spinel points to Peridot who was trying to deny quickly. Amethyst jumps to crush Peridot, Spinel takes Steven out of the barn.
"Inhale ... exhale ... Well, that's how it is done" Spinel exclaims as Steven began to calm down, quickly the hybrid focuses on regaining composure. Outside, Lapis can be seen even on the barn silo, while Ruby banged her head hard against a tree, to which Sapphire was no longer trying to stop her.
"Hey, Lapis!" Steven draws attention a little curious, to which the blue gem low flying to see the hybrid.
"What's up Steven?" Lapis attends with curiosity.
"Where is Pearl?" The hybrid questions a little worried, but on the other hand he was relieved that Lapis did not seem very emotional with the subject, so nothing unusual should have happened. Fortunately that seemed to be.
"Pearl went with your ... Dad? I think that Amethyst said it was, he came a few moments ago and ate with Pearl and Amethyst, but they ran out of food, and your dad went for more to give you a little. Pearl accompanies him "Lapis explains simply, to which Steven kindly thanks him.
"Why don't we go with Dad and Pearl?" Steven offers Lapis and Spinel, the pink gem extends an affirmative smile, both to the hybrid and to the blue gem, but it was already back in the grain silo. Certainly that behavior made Spinel remember the birds.
"No thanks!" Lapis affirms while she remains in her elevated position, Steven understands and says goodbye to her with his hand. The hybrid tries to go to Sapphire then, but it does not even let him speak before rejecting the offer as courteously as possible, on the other hand reasoning with Ruby would have been useless, so it was only Spinel and Steven who headed towards Beach City
While they walk Spinel sees how the hybrid was somewhat distracted "What do you think?" The pink gem asks with curiosity, to which Steven is a little surprised because of the pink gem's look on him, but the hybrid does not take long to answer honestly.
"I still think about using the gem rejuvenator to recover Ruby" Steven exclaims simply "I really miss Garnet" The hybrid laments.
"... Do you want to see a trick I've been thinking about?" Spinel offers Steven trying to clear the head of the hybrid, which looked at her with interest for a few moments. The pink gem stretches her fingers and ties them around the waist, using her free hand to scrape with the tips, then imitating the chords of a harp.
"Wow!" Steven exclaims in wonder "Can you imitate any string instrument like that?" Steven asks excitedly, to which the pink gem seemed to smile with pride.
"I would not like to show off as Peridot, but it probably is. Do you want to make a duet?" Spinel exclaims enthusiastically changing the shape of her fingers to start imitating other instruments, at that time the hybrid did not have his ukulele, but accompanies with his singing and some chords to Spinel, who imitated a guitar.

Greg had paid for some donuts and some coffee for Pearl, it really turned out that that human drink was particularly addictive for her, after Amethyst had finished most of the food Greg had brought, he decided to go buy some of Steven's favorite donuts "Thank you very much for joining me Pearl." The human kindly exclaims, to which the gem nods.
"There is nothing to thank Greg" Pearl calmly sentence as he began to walk from the Great Donut to Greg's van "Do you want me to drive?" The white gem offers, she finishes surprisingly quickly her drink, seeing that the human had his hands occupied with a box of donuts.
"Do you have a license?" Greg asks in dismay, to which he receives no answer "I will throw the coffee in the trash, take the box and I'll be right back" The human sentences with simplicity, he grabs empty container that Pearl had taken, while now the gem held the box of donuts.
After taking care of the garbage, Greg gets behind the wheel while Pearl is in the passenger seat. When driving there is silence, there was nothing that Pearl had to add, but the human yes "Hey Pearl, I spoke with Amethyst yesterday and I think you should talk to her too" The human mentions at the beginning he is somewhat insecure, but genuinely worried about the purple gem.
"What happened?" Pearl asks in dismay "Did something similar happen again like when ... Rose left?" The white gem is encouraged to inquire worried, but Greg rushes to deny.
"No! ... Eh, sorry" The human apologizes after his initial exaltation "No, it's just that Amethyst has problems that I think you should address since you're her friend and Garnet ... she's not here" Greg mentions simply, to which Pearl nods after a few moments of silence, Greg could not say that she was committed to speaking truthfully.
"Thanks for saying Greg," Pearl sentences simply, to which Greg only gives a small nod. Silence takes over the van again, perhaps because Pearl was thinking or simply because Greg had nothing to say that she might be interested in at the time.
"Pearl ... I have a question. Do you blame me for Rose's death?" Greg suddenly inquires, to Pearl's surprise, she feels at that moment the closest thing to "choking" or the cat biting her tongue. The gem simply doesn't move its mouth because of the fear of letting go an irreparable babble or a "Yes" "Sometimes I think it would be easier if she were here" Greg sentences sad for a few moments.
"Yes," Pearl replies looking at her hands, but the human is curious.
"To what?" Greg asks in dismay, but before the gem responds, something chases them from behind, which Pearl looks through the rearview mirror, which reflects the windows of the van doors, a mass that spins at high speed in the direction of both. Pearl makes Greg with a sharp turn and narrowly dodge that blow, although the van ends up sideways on the floor.
