Plot:

There is a storm raging outside the house, and Steven is laying down talking with the gems who are sad-but-pretending-to-be-fine beside him. Steven is talking trash about Yellow Diamond and the gems are sadly agreeing with fake smiles. They attempt to comfort him more and say that she likely wouldn't attack for days. Steven slowly drifts into sleep, and the gems walk over to the couch where they start to plan. They look over at Steven for a brief moment, and we get a look into Steven's mind where he is in an endless plain made of yellow diamond. He ealks for a while, and casts a shadow that slowly forms the shadow of Yellow Diamond. Steven questions what he is supposed to do, when he looks behind him and sees the shadow. The shadow runs off into the distance, and Steven chases after it. He runs for a while until something grabs him by the leg and pulls him under ground. The shadow lets go of Steven, and he finds himself in a dark room with a dim pink light surrounding him. He sees a small Yellow glow that forms a shadowy figure in the shape of Yellow Diamond surrounded by dim yellow light. Yellow Diamond greets "Rose," and Steven asks what she wants. She says she is going to ignore that question, and she leans down to inspect Steven. She seems disgusted by the form he took and calls him a disgrace. Steven says that if she just comes and picks up Jasper and Peridot, there won't be any problems, but Yellow Diamond just laughs. She talks about how Jasper and Peridot had failed thrir missions, and that she will give them a little suprise when she comes by. Steven gets a worried and disgusted look on his face, and Yellow Diamond explains her plans and how she is coming to destroy the problems that are stopping her plans from succeeding. Steven tells her not to touch them, and he charges at her. He falls through the darkness until he hits soft ground. The darkness clears up a bit and reveals a dark island with puppets of Garnet Amethyst and Pearl (because she does not yet know Lapis has joined the team). She says she is going to show Steven a little example of what she will do when thegems oppose her, and she activates the gem puppets. They all attack at once and we get a sickly depressing yet awesome battle between the shadowy Yellow Diamond and the fake gems, leading to shattered fake gems on the ground. Steven sheds a few tears, and everything around him dissappears into darkness. The faint lights appear again, and Yellow Diamond taunts him more, still calling him Rose. Steven says that he isn't Rose, and he stands up. Yellow Diamond laughs confused, and explains that Rose was the only person who could comunicate from long distances this way, but Steven stands by what he said, and reveals his true identity as Steven Universe son of Rose Quartz and Greg Universe to Yellow Diamond. Yellow Diamond, sickened by the idea of a human gem hybrid, begins freaking out and attacks Steven. His gem flashes a bright pink light giving us a pink-lighted head-turned full image of Yellow Diamond for about a frame, and Yellow Diamond screams. She tells him to prepare for the next day, and Steven's dream ends with a bright yellow flash. When he wakes up, he is yelling and running for the gems. He trips down the last few stairs and the gems go over to see what is wrong. They attempt to comfort him and ask what is wrong, and he stands up to say that Yellow Diamond is coming the next day.
