The Diamonds make some big decisions.
Again, like 29383884388484 going on in this chapter, but everything is SUPER important!!
——
Several weeks went by as the Diamonds repaired their empire. However, despite everything, Homeworld didn't feel like home anymore.
It really didn't.
"I don't know," Yellow said. She, Blue, and White were sitting in a circle together. "But I don't feel the same. Homeworld isn't where we belong anymore."
"It will feel strange leaving here again," Blue said.
"But we can come back any time," White said. "We'll have a Galaxy warp built right in the beach house to make travel more convenient."
"Of course," Yellow nodded. "And this isn't where Steven belongs either. He deserves to be back home, and we should be there with him."
===
"So we're moving back to Earth?" Steven looked at the Diamonds.
"It's what feels right," White said. "We'll be installing a Galaxy warp inside the beach house for easy travel between our two planets. This will allow us to not only live on Earth, but frequently visit homeworld."
"That's awesome!!" Steven said.
===
Steven packed up his things, and brought them back to Earth. After doing so, the Diamonds followed closely behind.
"Steven!!" Connie ran up to him, bringing him into a tight hug.
"Connie!! I didn't expect you to be here!!" Steven said.
"When I got your text, I couldn't wait," Connie said.
"Yea," Steven said. "We'll technically be living here on Earth, but we'll be on homeworld frequently to, Y'know, run the empire."
"Feels good to be home," Yellow said. "Homeworld is wonderful, but Earth just feels... right."
"Indeed it does," White said.
Suddenly, Steven thought of something. "White, remember when you showed me the extraction chambers?"
"Yes, what of them?" White asked.
"Our 'essences,' as you call them, they make gems. What if we use them to cure corruption?" Steven asked.
The room was silent.
"I... I never thought of that before," Blue said.
"Where could we test this?" Yellow asked.
Steven gasped. "Mom's fountain!! Let's do it there!!"
===
After grabbing a random bubble to test their theory on, the group headed to Pink's fountain.
"This place is amazing!!" Connie said.
"It really is!!" Steven said before turning to the Diamonds. "So, I think we should get into the water like we do in Blue's bath."
"Alright," Yellow said. Steven and the Diamonds then went into the water, Connie joining them. White gently put the bubble in the water, popping it.
Suddenly, the gem began to glow as a form burst from it. However, the form was not corrupted. Once the light faded, the gem looked around, confused.
"Unbelievable," White breathed.
"Wh... what?" The gem then saw the Diamonds. "A-AH!!" She saluted. "Nephrite! Facet-413 Cabochon-12!"
"I can't believe it worked," Yellow said. "Welcome back, Nephrite."
