How long was I unconscious?

Just over a month. In fact, we had already dug a hole to bury you.

What?! Are you serious?!

Naw, I'm just kidding. It was less than ten minutes. I'm glad you're okay, man!

My diamond! I need you to know that these gems' tears were only a dishonor to your honorable death, that's why I didn't do that vile act.

Huh?

She did.

That's a lie!! Well, but just inside.

*exhausted chuckle* You know guys? I was very scared, for a moment I thought I'd never wake up from that coma. I also thought my whole life had been a dream and I was gonna wake up in a hospital without legs.

*awkward silence* ...

What nonsense is that?

Steven, are you delirious?

No, it's just... I still feel a little dizzy. *tries to stand up, staggers and falls on his behind* See? I'm weary. I'm drained of energy.

Go ahead, Steven. Just put your arm around my shoulder and you lean on me to walk.

Thanks. *stands up leaning on Connie* I thank you all for caring about me, I–

(Bluebird is there too and at that moment she throws a furious tantrum because Steven is fine.)

*angered* Dammit! Dammit!! Dammit!!! Why did this happen?!

I thought something good had come out after all.

Happiness was short-lived and all because I celebrated ahead of time!

*disappointed sigh* Guys, we'll talk later, apparently we still have to deal with them.

So it seems.

When you passed out they tried to run away but I shackled them before they made it.

*furiously* Grrr, I hate these damn water chains!

Those chains are very practical.

Yeah, a lot.

What do we do with them?

We can't just let them go, can we?

Nope.

Steven? *looks at him worried*

Hmm, I haven't thought about it yet, but I think for now we're just gonna...

(At that moment, the Sun Incinerator ship arrives at the scene and lands next to Steven and the others.)

That ship is...

(Lars gets off the ship.)

Yo, what's up everybody?!

It's Lars and the Off-Colors! Hey, are you okay?

Better than ever, what about you?

We're good. And where have you been?

When we got the sun incinerator back and saw that you needed help, we went into space to pulverize Emerald with her own ship.

What?!

Don't worry, in the end we only destabilize her physical form.

So it was you guys who distracted her so we could beat her.

Not really, that's what someone else did.

Who?

I have no idea, she was a Lapis Lazuli that I didn't know...

*hearing everything* A... Lapis Lazuli?

Do you think he's talking about your–?

Nah, I highly doubt it, You know. she has shown me that she doesn't think of anyone but herself, she would never do something like that for someone else

Yeah, maybe you are right.

Unfortunately she along with Emerald and the three Diamonds were– *stays quiet*

Huh? What happened to the Diamonds? Please don't be quiet and tell me!
