#youre outnumbered ~ [ tsh alexandrite rps ]

[two-sides-halved]

Gem's voice escaped the glowing pink form of light has the silhouette changed from Rose into Gem Steven. He tackled his brother out of the way of danger, fusing in that moment of mutual of care and worry for the others well being. The fusion didn't have time to celebrate as Spinel let out a loud sound from her horn shaped hand, the ground shaking as the bio poison was pumped into the Earth. Steven Squared seeing Garnet was frozen in place as she was having her own epiphany in the moment. He knew from Spinel's speech before that only organic life was affected. So in reaction he created a large bubble shield. Garnet's form returned to normal, and she using her own super speed caught up with Pearl and Amethyst, formed Alexandrite picking up Connie and Greg inside the van to keep them safe from the flood of bio-poison that flooded coming up to Alexandrite's knees, while standing in a large crack that had formed in the Earth because of the rushed pumping of bio-poison. Steven Squared saw the bio-poison start to seep into the Earth causing cracks, and making larger canons of glowing pink goop. He took a deep breath, this was manageable, this was still fixable, there was still an Earth and that meant there's still a chance to save it. Steven Squared had renewed his hope simply because now he was here together. "Alright. People have been evacuated, Dad and Connie are safe, gems have their memories back... All we have to do is stop Spinel before the Earth's core is over cooled and the world ends... no pressure." Steven Squared muttered to himself, only for the injector to explode causing Spinel to fly straight up into the air and random bits of injector to fly every which way, the fusion dodging the the bits and kept his eye on spinel before she landed on her feet springing like she was on a pogo stick. Steven Squared headed toward Spinel, hearing the booming thunder of the rapidly changing weather, seeing the rain poor on his bubble shield, seeing that the bio-poison on the water layed on top like it was a thick oil that wouldn't mix with it. Deep inside the fusion, Human Steven still had a feeling he could talk things through with Spinel, while Gem Steven doubted that it would help especially with all the malice in her speech before. He was happy to be back to normal, but he wished that this was all settled and solved, having the sinking feeling in his gut that it was all his fault that it happened in the first place. (3/3)

Raspberry Tart watched as Steven went outside with Spinel, the gems had fully put their trust him to fix things. The sound of heavy metal music had gained his attention.

Steven and Spinel had passed the van that was rocking back and forth, there was loud heavy metal music playing and through the door that was swaying with the music, long pink curls were moving in large waves as Rose was head banging appreciating the music as a human would. Steven was smiling as he walked with Spinel to the injector, Peridot, and Bismuth confused as to why she was ok to be free now that she remembered who she was, but decided if she wasn't harming Steven in that moment it was best not to call it out, in fact, Bismuth had noticed that Pearl and the others hadn't come out quite yet and went to go see if there was a plan for if this all went up in smoke. Then it was just Steven and Spinel, no other bystander's insight. Spinel looked back at Steven, with a deep breath, "Here we are... Steven, you said that I could have a second chance on Earth right?" "Yea, of course. I know the gems didn't give you the warmest reception, but you do have to remember they need sometime to process you're changing for the better too." He smiled. "Right... but what about after I stop the injector... and you get what you want... how do I know you're not going to reset me again..." She asked. "Well, I did that out of self defense before, and I believe you can change... I know you can turn this around Spinel... and..." He replied, paused calling for Lion again, Spinel stepping back knowing how the Lion would tackle Steven with nothing but love like she had seen him do before. Steven went out to take the rejuvinator out of Lion's mane, the sight of the device in his hands made her tense, she watched him like a hawk assuming that he was going to reset her once this was all over, she went to open her mouth, but Steven continued, "As a show of my faith in you." He extended the device and slammed the rejuvinator over his knee and broke the rejuvinator in two pieces they crackled with energy before fizzling out on the ground. "I'm not going to reset you... you deserve to have a second chance with all your memories to know how much you've grown and changed as a person." He smiled. Spinel stared at him, she almost couldn't believed what she saw, he really wasn't like his mother, he really meant what he had sung up in the garden and that wasn't just some catchy tune to convince her. Rose had finally grown tired from all the headbanging in the van, turning the music off, going to see how Steven was doing after his meal since she was still heavily worried about him from before. She looked over to the gems inside unsure of what they were talking about but seeing Steven was absent from the table, and turned to look out near the injector. her eyes set sights on Spinel, she looked more menacing than the little heart clad form she had been sporting for most of the day. Rose like the gems before had assumed that Spinel had reverted to her old personality, and she wasn't about to let Spinel hurt Steven, she summoned the family sword, Greg unable to stop his reset son from charging out of the van at a fast pace.
