With no time to lose, Pearl and Sapphire followed the trail, the footsteps and marks left by the various gem creatures paving a clear path for them. Eventually, these steps came to a dead end right outside of a small pod--a Homeworld vessel! Before they could reach it, the ship took to the skies and darted away, Pearl firing bolts of energy from her lance, yet to no avail. Anguished, Pearl slumped against a rock, murmuring, "Maybe I am no good." Before all hope was lost and despair set in, Sapphire lifted her head.
"They are headed to the Communication Hub."
Pearl chuckled, lifting herself up, "Sugilite destroyed it. They'll find nothing there..."
With determination filling her, Sapphire turned back towards Beach City, "...except for us, waiting. Come on."
