The first place you guys check is the flower meadow. Taking a brief glance around, everything seems to he virtually unchanged. You sniffed the air and found that it was just as flowery as it ever was.
"Nothing unusual." Garnet states.
"Achoo!"
"Bless ya." Spinel handed Steven a tissue from your bag.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your next spot was the geode, which was surprisingly still holding out, thanks to the tape still plastered across it.
"Nothing here, either." Pearl notes. "And the geode is holding nicely."
"Incredible." You rumbled, your brow lifted. Funny how some things so simple can be so strong. You thought.
You made a mental note to give Greg credit next time you saw him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your next destination was an extravagant looking mountain of sorts called the sky spire.
"Whoa! Now that's something!" Ameythyst exclaims pointing to a goat with a pair of goat kids around it.
"Heh, Steven Jr.'s been busy." She smirks, with a sly chuckle. She then elbows you. "This makes you a great-grandma, Mama B!"
You blinked, furrowing your brow in confusion. "What now?"
Garnet pats your shoulder. "Congratulations."
Spinel squinted in confusion. "How did you-?"
"Hey, we're getting off task here!" Steven quickly exclaimed.
"We've looked all over!" Pearl exclaimed with frustration. "There's nothing here to find!"
Steven rolls his eyes, annoyed with pearl's insistence, and lowered his voice to a mutter. "But you're wrong."
Unfortunately, his voice wasn't low enough to he unheard by pearl. "EXCUSE me?!"
Steven shrank back, upon realizing he was heard. "I-I mean-"
"Steady pearl." You growled, making pearl tense up. "Don't snap at him like that."
"(Name), I've already stated to him, nothing on earth can use these warps but us!" Pearl explained, trying to keep her tone in check.
"And what if it came from space?"
Pearl stared at you, her eyes darting back and forth. "I- ...apologize for my outburst."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally you come up to the galaxy warp.
"These are the warps that once connected us to other planets. If something tried to come from space, it would be through here." Pearl explained walking towards one of the larger warps.
"But wait! This warp pad is broken!" There was a tone in pearl's voice that made your skin crawl. "Marked inactive by the very "depressed" cartoon breakfast sticker you placed here yourself!"
Steven walks over to the warp and places his hand on the sticker.
"Look, pearl's right, like usual." Ameythyst teases, nuzzling against Steven. "Ugh! You get used to it."
"I guess so." Steven states, seemingly defeated. Then the gems sighed.
"Oh man! Finally! That took all day!" Ameythyst exclaims.
"It was important to make Steven feel secure." Garnet assures.
"Yes, Steven feels much better now." Pearl assures, seemingly satisfied with herself.
