Origins, Part 1

**Origins, Part 1** is the first episode of the first season of *Pandora Squadron Gems.* It is the first episode overall, as well as the series premiere.

## Official Synopsis

Amazonite and the others stop a rebel movement at the Crystalline Palace.

## Plot

The episode opens up to a montage of Homeworld, with a narrator talking about current life and the Diamond Authority. The narrator focuses on Green Diamond, specifically, and her role, as well as her court of gems.

The scene and speech later goes to focus on one of the gems in Green Diamond's court, Amazonite, the main protagonist, along with his comrades Snowflake Obsidian and Teal, high-order subordinates of Green Diamond. The narrator then states that "things will change on this very date".

In present time, all three gems are conversing on how to win back the Crystalline Palace, which has been invaded by a rebel gem movement lead by an Aquamarine. While Snowflake and Teal are uncertain about the situation, as this has never happened before, Amazonite quickly comes up with one.

Later, at the Crystalline Palace, an Aquamarine is giving a speech to all of her followers, saying that this is their hugest victory, and how "Homeworld won't see what's coming to them". When all of Aquamarine's followers are cheering, a huge dust explosion goes off in the crowd, which reveals a battalion of Topazes, Amethysts, and Jaspers. Aquamarine stands in horror for a second, then pulls out her weapon, a rapier, and begins to fight. She manages to take down a chunk of them, but is interrupted when another explosion happens in the crowd.

This time, a glowing mass appeared, growing larger and larger until it eventually morphs into Cat's Eye Chrysoberyl, the fusion of Amazonite, Teal, and Snowflake. She takes out Teal's mallet, Amazonite's saber, and Snowflake's electric whip to create her weapon--a large Kusarigama, in which she begins to thrash around violently. Tons and tons of gems are poofed and shattered, creating large clouds of dust.

Aquamarine, who gets large amounts of dust into her eyes, loses her sight and falls over her podium. After the clouds clear up, she regains her sight and gazes in horror to see all of her followers shattered gems in bubbles, which all shoot up into the sky and disappear.

Cat's Eye Chrysoberyl looks down at Aquamarine, who is now leaking tears and trembling in fear, She bends down and clutches her by the neck with uncertain intent, and warns her to "NEVER, EVER think of trying to do this type of tyrany again". Cat's Eye slams Aquamarine into the ground, instantly poofing her. She picks up her gem, bubbles it, and defuses back into Amazonite, Teal, and Snowfkake, who celebrate their victory.

Later, at the Crystalline Palace, a cloaked gem secretly makes his way inside the palace, where he finds a bubbled Moonstone gem. He releases the bubble, and Moonstone forms. He asks the mysterious gem who he is and why did he set him free. The mysterious gem reveals to be Sard, the leader of Steampunk Island on the planet of Pandora, and that he freed him only to recruit him and another gem, "An Amazonite".
