The air reeks of smoke and salt. Dark clouds churn over Beach City, the evacuation complete. On the sand, the Crystal Gems stand ready. Jasper charges at Steven, and you leap to block her—your body slams into hers, a flash of red. Her gem destabilizer hits you, and pain explodes through your form. You retreat into your gem, a Red Beryl crystal, as it crashes onto the sand. The only witnesses: Steven, Pearl, Garnet, Amethyst, Jasper, Lapis, and Peridot. Your friends scream your name—you! Then they fall too. You wake in a cell, a yellow forcefield humming before you. Silence. No one answers your calls. What do you do?
