(I'm sorry X( I don't know what's gotten into me) Steven thought. "Maybe they could even have the same gems as people? Wait a minute..." Steven yelled. "LION!!"
Pearl flinched. She didn't know what on Earth Steven was doing, nor these police officers. She sighed and tried to distance herself from both parties.

Diamond waited; she was curious to see this 'Lion'.
McConnike stepped out of his car, looking over the scene and then turning his attention to the Captain. "Hello, Hank. I see you've got this under control." "Y-yes, Sir." Stanley said. "Well, I just thought I'd check and make sure. Since I'm here now, I might as well stick around a while." Stanley went a bit pale. "O-Of course." Malloy had noticed the resemblance between Chief McConnike and Mac. He decided to change the subject. "Hey, are you two related?" "Huh?" Mac looked up from a report he was working on. It was like looking in a mirror. "Whoa...."

Lion never came. Steven sighed. He's expected that. "He does his own thing. He usually only shows up when I need him." He'd been looking foreword the hugging the giant pink mane with Diamond. But more importantly, he wanted Diamond to help him figure out if Lion had Gem powers. "Would you want a pet?" He suddenly asked. A faint sound could be heard in the background, so very faint you couldn't tell what it was, or even if you were actually hearing it. Steven didn't give it a second thought. It was actually screaming. Believe it or not, there was a black and white dog and a little yellow bird flying across the sky. Not flying in the sense that they had control or anything, it was like they'd been thrown. The dog face planted into the sand a few miles from everyone else. He moaned, and shook his head to regain clear thoughts. Then he sprang to his feet and searched desperately for his little friend. He uncover some sand to find the bird half buried, feet sticking up. The dog freaked and pulled him out. The birdie had a beak bleed. He blew his nose on a tissue the dog had promptly handed him. The dog grinned sheepishly. Well, The dog said in a speak only the bird could understand. We're south. The bird hopped up and down, chirping and making little angry noises. Yes, the catapult was absolutely necessary! The dog defended, folding his arms.

"Oh. That makes sense." Diamond chuckled. "I'd like a pet. I just never found mine."
McConnike and Mac squinted at each other, presumably to make sure they weren't hallucinating. Mac got a bit closer to McConnike and started to reach toward him, then reeled back. "What if he's me from another dimension, though? Or another time? What if we tear the universe apart?!" Malloy laughed, going along with it just because. "Better not touch him, then." McConnike crossed his arms. "No, I'm not from another dimension. We're twins." "But-" "My- er, our mother told me I had a brother." McConnike shrugged, keeping his distance from Mac.
Garnet had become interested. So that's what human twins were like...

(That was RANDOM.) Pearl's eyes got the size of golf balls.
"How would you not know that?" Amethyst blurted out. "Weren't you made at the same time?"
Woodstock refused to let Snoopy carry him. He seemed angry. Snoppy kinda felt bad. He knew his friend felt sick if he was at too high of an altitude. But he thought he'd been helping. Come on, isn't this what you wanted? To go south for the winter like other birds? Woodstock sighed (in a cute, squeaky way.) Snoppy picked him up and the bird gave in, snuggling against his fur. There were some weird people, so obviously Snoopy's natural response was to wander towards them.

Mac's face turned red. "Um.... yes, in a way......" "Humans typically don't retain memories of any experiences they had before they were about two or three years old." McConnike stated.

"Huh." I'm not the only one, Amethyst thought.
Pearl's eyes weren't any less wide, wider in fact, but she was looking at something else now. "Look at that dog!" Steven exclaimed. "He's standing on two legs!" His grin was gigantic, Snoppy took a bow. "He's so cute, isn't he Diamond? Maybe this is your pet! It's the same place I found my pet!"

"Aww, look at him!" Diamond smiled. "Yeah, I've never seen anything like him before, not even on Homeworld. But I wonder how he got here?"
McConnike glared at Mac, who backed away a bit.

Woodstock flew to Diamond's shoulder to get a better look. On his way he went forwards, backwards, up, down, and even upside down. "Aw, he can't fly that well." Steven kneeled down and rubbed Snoopy's head. He read his dog tag. "Snoopy," He straightened up. "I'm sorry, Diamond. He already has a home, it seems."
"Many, maaaany levels of awkward up in here." Amethyst grinned innocently. "I think I'll shift my artetion to the random stray dog." Snoopy made protest noises. Who are you calling stray?!

"Maybe they're lost? We should try to find their owners."
"I've been around here before and I've never seen a dog like that." Malloy said. "I wonder where he came from." "Maybe he's from New York?" Chet suggested. "No way," Wells shook his head. "The news would be all over that. He's gotta be from a small town."

"Garnet! Can we take care of Snoopy and the little bird until we can find their home?" Steven asked in his special Steveny way. Woodstock examined Diamond's face. Animals could usually tell there was something not quite right about Gems.
"Is Snoopy a name?" Anethyst asked, mostly just to herself, while eyeing the dog. Snoppy gave her a slobbery kiss, eager to see how she'd react. Anethyst just froze as if she'd just been shot. Finally, she went "Ah! Ew! Really, man?!" With no paper towels or anything, she lifted the skirt of her dress and wiped her face. (She has leggings and a tank top underneath!!)
Snoopy giggled and kissed Mac and Malloy.

"I don't see why not." Garnet shrugged.
"What do they eat? Or do they even eat?" Diamond questioned.
Mac laughed. "Great. Now we have dog germs." Malloy said. "Lighten up, Pete." Reed smiled. "Besides, he is kinda cute."

Pearl fought the urge to smack Amethyst for lifting her dress up like that. "Now what?"
Snoopy studied the police gear. It was soooo interesting. Soon he shocked himself with the taser. In anger he kicked it, shocking himself again. Steven hoped his accident-proness wouldn't cause Garnet to change her answer, Woodstock jumped up to help him, but a gust of wind set him flying backwards out of control. (I'm trying to set it up so Diamond saves him.)

"We could put an ad in the newspaper, like 'found dog' or something." Wells shrugged.
Diamond gently grabbed Woodstock, then took the taser from Snoopy and pressed the button to turn it off. "They seem a bit clumsy." She giggled.

Woodstock shivered and sighed again.
Amethyst clapped. "The understatement of the day." Steven was scribbling in his notebook. "Found- one dog, one bird, can't fly."
Pearl sensed something. Her panic rose. She didn't want the humans around any corrupted Gems. "Amethyst, why don't you show everybody back to civilization?"
