Steven, Lapis, Peridot and the Crystal Gems all gasp as the Ruby starts looking around.
"Ruby?" Steven asks. "Whoa.." Garnet grabs the back of Steven's shirt and pulls him away. Everyone retreats back inside the barn as the Ruby lands on the ground, growls, and walks away. Another Ruby jumps out of the hatch and begins making fighting noises and poses.
One Ruby picks up a flower and kicks it. "Hi-ya!" She cartwheels away.
Another Ruby pops out and gasps with excitement. "What a lovely planet!" She walks away happily.
A third Ruby sticks her head out nervously. "Wait! So we just... get out and walk around? Whoa-!"
She gets shoved out of the by a fourth Ruby. "Now, where's the Gem the scanners locked on to?" She looks around. "Let's fan out and search the area!"
Steven peeks out of the door from inside the barn to look at the five Rubies from Homeworld. "Whoa, look at 'em all!"
Peridot peeks over too, on top of Steven. "I knew it. They're after me! This is THE END of the line!"
"You really weren't kidding." Lapis says to Peridot as she looks out.
"I disobeyed a direct order from Yellow Diamond, and I called her a clod... to her face." Peridot says remembering.
"Oh, honestly, you call everyone a clod." Pearl says.
"She's got a point..." Y/n shrugs.
"Yes, but not everyone has command over all the armies of Homeworld waiting for the word to shatter me!" Peridot stresses.
Peridot scampers to a box of baseball equipment, dumps out the contents and hides inside the box.
Y/n walks over to the slightly shaking box now as he crouches down. "Peridot." He lifts up the box. "After all we've been through you think we're going to abandon you now?"
"But haven't I caused you enough trouble?" Peridot asks.
Garnet chuckles as walks over and puts her hand on Peridot's shoulder. "Don't worry, Peridot. It's our sworn duty to protect anything that calls this planet home. And that includes... clods like you."
"That's my word..." Peridot whispers.
"Listen up, everyone. I have a plan." Garnet says as everyone looks at her. "Or should I say... We have a plan."
Garnet holds up her hands and giggles. She then begins to unfuse, separating into Ruby and Sapphire, holding hands with each other.
"Hello everyone." Sapphire says.
"Ruby! Sapphire!" Pearl and Amethyst say happily.
"HUUUGS!" Steven cries as he runs up to Ruby and Sapphire and hugs them.
"Hello, Steven!" Sapphire giggles.
"Hello again you two." Y/n says as he crouches down too now.
"Hi." Ruby says as she hugs Y/n.
"Hello Y/n." Sapphire smiles as she joins in the small hug and Y/n lets them go.
"So, what's the plan?" Y/n asks.
Sapphire turns to Ruby. "You got this. Just act casual." She says and kisses Ruby on the cheek.
"Yeah." Ruby bumps her fist against her palm. "Casual."
