The three gems entered their physical forms, landing in unison. They slowly took steps forward to the temple. Everything they did was coordinated to be in unison, without thinking, they stepped together.

Muffled words were heard from the door, followed by the door opening and peridot coming out and looking at the two gems knocking on the door. The gems outside stopped walking, looking at peridot. "What do you clods wa..." She made eye contact with the gems from the pods for about half a second before running back inside, screaming. "Garnet! They're here, they're outside!" Garnet looked outside from amethyst's room, and the door shut. The gems outside continued to approach the door.

"Oh boy..." Lenny said, intimidated by the new trio that arrived. He grabbed a stick and held it as a bat. "Stay back!"
"Yeah!" CJ showed absolutely no fear as he picked up a rock and threw it at the middle intruder.

The gem in the center, unhased, is hit in the shoulder with the rock to no avail. The rock falls to the ground. The gem stops, looking them over. It then summons a knife from it's gem, and continues walking. The door to the temple opens and pearl throws a spear from the temple interior. The gem on the left, to which the spear was thrown, sidesteps behind the center gem, and jumps into the air, throwing a knife down at CJ and Lenny.

Rhodonite trailed behind the trio with apprehension and curiosity before the screams of a green troll diverted his attention from the newcomers. Soon after, a band of misfits attacked the foreigners, "Hey!" Rhodonite shouted from a few feet away.

The gem on the right turned around, running at the interrupting figure. Apparently, there were more gems on this planet than originally thought. This would have to be reported. The gem summoned a few knives, trowing them. The gem in the center readied a knife as well, but didn't follow.

Lenny stepped in front of CJ, the knife lodging itself into his arm as he yelped in pain. Meanwhile, the Gem that was still airborne was hit with a red particle blast, knocking him into the grass.
It was Ira, who closed his beam emitter and unsheathed his arm blades before charging at the remaining two intruders.
"You aren't welcome here!" Ira proclaimed, leaping in front of CJ and Lenny before taking a defensive stance.

The gem flew back, landing hard. It got up, running back at them. Then gem that was in the center energized the knife, projecting a blade, and took a defensive srance as well.

Ira kicked the center Gem in the abdomen, knocking him down the stairs and into some rocks, quickly following up by blasting the remaining one in the face with a particle beam. Ira jumped down after the final gem, his foot poised to land on its face.
"How do we get ourselves into this kinda crap, bro?" Lenny sighed.
"I'm just wishing I had superpowers like Nick..." CJ said, holding his shoulder.

The center gem stayed down, the one hit with the beam was retreated to it's gem. The third gem threw an energized knife at Ira, and the resulting explosion forced the it into it's gem as well. The remaining gem backed up slowly, looking between it's fallen companions and the ones who defeated them. It continued backing up until amethyst ran from inside the temple and detained the gem with her whip.

From the debris and smoke of the aerial explosion, came a black, round disk that landed with a heavy pang on the sand. Nick, keeping his drill poised at the last Gem, walked over and picked up the metal disk.
"Whoa, he's like the other ones we fought," Lenny thought out loud.
"Not exactly," Nick observed, "All of those were monsters, like animals, and they had some sort of gem or crystal...this...it's like a giant coin."
"And the black medal goes to!" CJ grabbed the disk and held it high with pride, "US!"

The Crystal Gems exited the temple and confronted the gem. The gem, realizing it had failed, attempted to summon its weapon and shatter itself, by it was stopped by garnet, who crushed the knife and was ready to keep doing so. The gem was able to free itself temporarily and shattered one of it's comrades, severely cracking the other, before it was sent back to it's gem. "What on earth was it doing? It just destroyed it's partner?" Pearl said, and picked up the gem. Garnet turned to the boys "Thank you for your help". Amethyst interrupts "you guys wanna come inside?"

"I dunno, we smell pretty rank," Nick said, before being promptly interrupted by CJ.
"Dude are you CRAZY?" He said, "Plumbing, electricity, furniture! Stuff we could only DREAM OF!"
"Right, sorry," Nick snapped his head up, "Just a bit shaken...sure, we'll come inside."

"Amethyst, we are not letting them into the temple" pearl pushed amethyst back a bit, but garnet stopped her "come on, you guys can come in". The gems went into the temple, pearl looking over the gem.

While the Gems were inspecting their captives, the three boys were looking over their "Medal."
"Think it's worth anything?" CJ said absentmindedly.
"Dunno, but it looks pretty." Lenny said, as Nick emerged from the washroom.
"Alright, CJ, your turn," Nick stepped out of the doorway as CJ rushed in, "So, did anyone figure anything out about this...Medal?"
"Just that it looks pretty," Lenny shrugged, "Maybe we've been in a videogame this whole time and this Medal is a powerup."
"Aaaand how would you know that?" Nick eyed Lenny suspiciously. Lenny responded by squirming like a worm under a pigeon's talon.
"Well...maybe we...found a few quarters..." Lenny avoided Nick's gaze, "Aaand we spend them at the arcade..." Nick breathed a sigh of relief.
"Whew, I thought you'd have done something illegal."
