[In the distance, amidst the ravages of battle, Holly Blue Agate and Spinel find themselves in trouble as they try to get away from such devastation.]

Peridot: Did you see who's there?

Connie: Yeah, I did.

Lapis: What do we do with them?

Connie: Let's go get them, we'll take them with us too.

[Connie, Lapis, and Peridot fly quickly towards Holly and Spinel.]

Peridot: Hold it right there, you clods!

Spinel: *surprised* What the hell?!

Holly Blue Agate: You!? What the fuck do you assholes want now?!

Connie: You two are coming with us too.

Lapis: Rest assured.

[Lapis catches Holly Blue and Spinel with water chains.]

Holly Blue Agate: Let me go right now!

Lapis: Another one to the list.

Spinel: Hah! This won't stop me.

[Spinel shapeshifts her body into a smaller one, getting free from the water chains.]

Spinel: *laughter* Try and catch me, you fools!

[Spinel escapes by jumping and stretching while slithering through the rubble with great speed and dexterity, as if she were a snake.]

Lapis: She hid in the rubble.

Connie: That Gem is quite elusive.

Lapis: Her elastic ability is also annoying.

Peridot: It's going to be a real pain in the ass to catch her.

Connie: So it seems.

Lapis: I could-- No, I'd better not.

Peridot: Do you think you can handle her?

Lapis: I might. I'd rather not risk it, though. You must have an idea why by now.

Peridot: No, it's okay, we trust you. If you think you can handle her without losing control, then stop worrying about it and go get her.

Lapis: Ok then, just hold these Gems for me, please.

[Lapis says as she freezes the water chains, which hold Holly, Bluebird, Mean Lapis and Jasper, the latter two still unconscious.]

Peridot: Good luck.

Lapis: Thank you. It'll be a piece of cake anyway.

Peridot: If you say so.

[Connie and Peridot hold tightly to the ice chains, Lapis then flies off in search of Spinel.]

Lapis: Tch. Where could she be?

Connie: *shouts* Lapis, look out!

Peridot: Behind you!

Lapis: Huh?!

[Spinel suddenly appears behind Lapis, she is seen wielding the rejuvenator, so she then attacks Lapis with it.]

Lapis: Damn it!

[Lapis performs a maneuver and barely dodges Spinel's attack, losing both water wings in the process, as Spinel managed to cut them off with her rejuvenator. As a result, Lapis now finds herself falling to the ground.]
