Story
The story begins with the gang at Red Fork's house, discussing about a plan on what they should do if Cosmos becomes a threat to them. Suddenly, Gary Garnet detects a distress signal somewhere in Echo Creek from his OPhone. ''The gang runs to the source of the distress signal, arriving at the coast. However, instead of Cosmos, they find Captain Blowhole and his army raiding the coast for its treasures.'' The electric dolphins stop whatever they are doing and immediately draw their swords, before charging towards the gang. Boom grabs large boulders nearby, and starts tossing them at the electric dolphins, while flying out of their reach. ''The electric dolphins continue charging towards the gang, while dodging the boulders thrown at them. In almost no time, they reach the forcefield and begin to attack it with their swords.'' ''Despite the number of attacks coming towards them, the electric dolphins continue to attack the forcefield with their swords, dealing heavy damage to it. Amelia Amethyst activates a forcefield to further fortify Blue Ocean's forcefield.'' Blade tosses even more cutting blades, Scorch shoots even more fire blasts, and Boom comes out of the forcefield, and flies around quickly, delivering powerful punches and knocking out some of the electric dolphins, while moving around fast enough to dodge any sword attacks. ''Captain Blowhole charges up front, deflecting the cutting blades with his sword and rolling forwards to avoid the fire blasts. He proceeds to fire an electric water jet at Boom. Boom simply dodges the electric water jet.'' The electric dolphins continue attacking the forcefield, until they eventually destroy it. ''Red Ruby throws dynamite sticks at the electric dolphins, only for them to quickly extinguish the fuses, rendering the dynamite sticks useless.  Red Fork rams into the electric dolphins, defeating several of them in one hit.'' ''As Captain Blowhole says this, several electric dolphins appear behind Red Fork and quickly fire electric water jets at him. Red Fork hears them, and teleports to above them before the electric water jets hit them. He then smashes them with his weight.'' Suddenly, everyone stops fighting as they realize that the sea level is rapidly rising, covering the grounds of Echo Creek. A mysterious hooded figure appears out of nowhere, causing the electric dolphins except Captain Blowhole to be immediately frightened. The electric dolphins, however, are too afraid to fight back against the Water God. ''The Water God creates a giant tidal wave, sending Captain Blowhole and his army flying all the way back into the ocean. The gang are surprised to see how quickly the Water God took them down with a single attack.'' The Water God creates a hurricane around himself, before disappearing, causing the water level to return to normal. ''The gang returns to Red Fork's house. Meanwhile, Captain Blowhole is back in his underwater base, expressing his anger over his quick defeat by the Water God.'' Captain Blowhole takes out blueprints of some of his previous plans to raiding the Peakea village and reads through them, only to find the common factor that his army are too afraid to fight the Water God, which led them to their defeat every time. ''Captain Blowhole proceeds to write a motivational speech on a piece of paper. About half an hour later, he gathers his army outside the underwater base and begins his speech.'' Captain Blowhole angrily swims back into the underwater base and into his office. Captain Blowhole proceeds to call Re-Peat Boss, who is meanwhile working on another machine. Suddenly right after that, Thornabelle appears through teleportation, with the emotion-extracting machine with her. Captain Blowhole inspects the emotion-extracting machine, and begins smiling evilly. ''Captain Blowhole laughs maniacally, which can be heard all over the underwater base. Meanwhile, the rest of the gang are back at Red Fork's house discussing about what happened earlier.'' Suddenly, Gary Garnet's OPhone detects another distress signal. ''The gang goes towards the source of the distress signal. This time, they see Rooto, Shiitake and Thornabelle robbing a bank in Echo Creek.'' The gang approaches the three plant villains, in an attempt to put an end to their robbery. Rooto shoots out a barrage of flying Hotheads at the gang, while Shiitake and Thornabelle continue grabbing the money from the bank vault. Amelia Amethyst points to a huge hole on one of the walls, as the gang realizes that the plant villains have already escaped with the loot while they have been arguing the whole time. ''However, Red Ruby doesn't say anything. He gives a death stare at the gang, leaving them speechless as he shows extreme levels of anger and hatred in his silence never before seen by anyone. This is not the same hot-tempered and reckless Red Ruby that they have always seen or knew, in his place is the Red Ruby whose anger has risen to a whole new level, ready to let loose at any moment. In his mind reads the words "BREAKING POINT REACHED", as Red Ruby's face turns bright red, with boiling hot steam and flames being emitted from his body, and nothing but boiling hot ruby blood in his body. Finally, with his anger at maximum, he breaks loose and gains a fiery aura, before setting fire in the bank and throwing his explosives everywhere, which starts to intimidate most of the gang members.'' As Red Ruby causes even more destruction, the entire bank starts to crumble. ''The gang quickly evacuates the bank, before a huge explosion completely destroys it, leaving behind nothing but rubble. Red Ruby steps out of the rubble and towards the gang.'' The gang gasps, Boom rolls his eyes, Electra looks away from Red Ruby, Scorch is looking at a butterfly pass by, Blade gasps along with the gang, and Emily, affected by Red Ruby's words, has her eyes filling up with tears. ''The gang sees how Emily Green runs away, really hurt by Red's words. They all start staring at Red Ruby in disapproval of his behavior.'' ''Red Ruby throws a dynamite stick at the gang in anger and frustration, before storming off quickly from them. Red Fork grabs the dynamite stick with his magic, and Lemon Glass tosses a glass of water on it to turn it off.'' (W.I.P.)
 * Red Ruby: Explosives! Definitely explosives!
 * Gary Garnet: Come on, do you really think that's going to work against that technologically-enhanced gemstone?
 * Red Ruby: What, do you think the power of science is any better?
 * Gary Garnet: Well, at least it's a smarter move than throwing your explosives everywhere!
 * Boom: Still a better idea than Spandroid...
 * Red Fork: Now's not the time for that discussion, Boom, and you know it.
 * Boom: Whatever...
 * Red Fork: Red, we have to be smart. We're facing an enemy we don't know, with technology we don't understand. This isn't the time to go berserk with explosives.
 * Red Ruby: What? Are you saying that explosives are a dumb idea?
 * Gary Garnet: Yes, they are. That is why we must come up with an actual brilliant plan.
 * Sean Sapphire: Yeah, instead of throwing explosives everywhere.
 * Red Ruby: Come on, I was just trying to help and you know it!
 * Emma Emerald: Unless you have a better idea on how to handle Cosmos in case he becomes dangerous, I suggest you stay out of this conversation and let us handle it.
 * Red Ruby: What?! But...I...I was only trying to help!
 * Electra: We know, but you see, blowing up things mindlessly isn't exactly... helpful.
 * Emily Green: Maybe we could try to calm down a bit? Everyone should be able to share their opinions, right? We're all just trying to help.
 * Red Ruby: (is about to rage but prevents himself from doing it) Alright, I'm calm, I'm calm. I've been trying self-control, but I don't know how much longer that will help. Now can we please continue?
 * Amelia Amethyst: Sure thing! So what have you guys got in mind about handling Cosmos?
 * Blue Ocean: Well, I'm trying to find some sort of loophole in the contract. I haven't found anything, though...
 * Starcade: Me too. I couldn't comprehend anything about the technology Cosmos uses in his spaceship, even with the help of my assistants.
 * Amelia Amethyst: So we got nothing? Well, that's a bummer. Oh well, I guess we'll have to think of alternative ideas on handling that guy. Let's see...
 * Gary Garnet: We got ourselves a distress signal.
 * Sean Sapphire: Looks like Cosmos might be up to no good after all. Let's go find him!
 * Red Fork: Come on guys, let's go!
 * Amelia Amethyst: But what about the plan?
 * Sean Sapphire: Forget the plan! Let's go!
 * Sean Sapphire: So much for dealing with Cosmos. We have another problem in our hands, Captain Blowhole!
 * Blue Ocean: Hey, Captain Blowhole! Whatcha doing here!?
 * Captain Blowhole: (to his electric dolphins) Keep it going, my dolphins! Load the ship with em' loot! We're going to teach those pesky...(hears Blue Ocean and notices the gang) What are you doing here, Locked Room Gang? This isn't your business!
 * Blue Ocean: Well, you're messing with the coast, so yes, it is.
 * Sean Sapphire: Now give back the loot you've stolen or else!
 * Captain Blowhole: I have dealt with you fools several times, do you think you can ruin my plans again?
 * Red Ruby: Of course we do! We've defeated you before and you know it!
 * Captain Blowhole: But not this time. Without the Water God's presence, none of you stands a chance!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Who's the Water...
 * Captain Blowhole: Get them!
 * Green Shadow: Here they come!
 * Blue Ocean: Ready! (creates a forcefield around the gang)
 * Boom: Let's knock them out of here.
 * Captain Blowhole: Electric dolphins, remember your training! Show these landlubbers what we've got!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Huh, they're stronger than I remember.
 * Sean Sapphire: Makes sense. It's been quite a while since we've last seen Captain Blowhole execute an evil scheme. That captain must have used that time to train his own army.
 * Amelia Amethyst: I guess that's true. I hope this forcefield Blue Ocean activated can hold them.
 * Electra: Well, I won't take any changes. (summon an electric forcefield to help fortify Blue Ocean's forcefield)
 * Scorch: Fire! The flames of justice will burn them down! Fire! (shoots large fire blasts at the electric dolphins, burning them)
 * Blade: (shoots cutting blades at the electric dolphins) We'll cut them down to size!
 * Captain Blowhole: Well, look who it is! Opposite Blast's gang, the traitors who foolishly decided to betray us villains. This is going to be even more fun than it's supposed to be. Electric dolphins, take them down!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Hope this is thick enough to withstand sword attacks.
 * Boom: Alright guys, time to blast them down!
 * Red Fork: Well, they sure did come in handy after all.
 * Captain Blowhole: Grrr!!! Must I do everything by myself?
 * Captain Blowhole: You ex-villains were always weak even before you left us.
 * Boom: You're just jealous we're better than you.
 * Captain Blowhole: (to the other electric dolphins) Alright, boys! The coast is clear, now we can strike!
 * Toby Topaz: We're exposed! What do we do?
 * Red Ruby: Simple! Let's use explosives, that outta kill them!
 * Electra: Do anything!
 * Boom: Hey, Captain fish breath! I'd still here, you know! (punches Captain Blowhole in the face)
 * Captain Blowhole: Soon, you'll be gone! (fires another electric water jet, electrocuting Boom)
 * Red Ruby: Well, this is why I said these ex-villains don't deserve to be in our team! Let me show you how it's done!
 * Toby Topaz: Red, wait!
 * Gary Garnet: So much for showing off.
 * Red Ruby: Why you...
 * Sean Sapphire: We need to think of other ideas to deal with Captain Blowhole's army, being reckless is not going to work!
 * Red Ruby: What? Are you saying that was reckless? I was trying to solve this mess by attempting to kill those dolphins with my explosives!
 * Emily Green: I think it was a good idea. Too bad it didn't work out...
 * Red Fork: Alright, time to bring in the heavy weight!
 * Red Fork: Ahem, Captain Blowhole? Think you can hit me? Or are you too slow?
 * Captain Blowhole: There's no need to run, Red Fork. (gives an evil smirk) Don't look back now!
 * Red Fork: Not bad, not bad at all.
 * Captain Blowhole: Oh, there's more where that came from. You see, I've trained my army harder after studying more about your strengths and your weaknesses. It's only a matter of time before you're defeated, as long as he doesn't appear.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Who's...
 * Starcade: The water's rising? What's going on?
 * Gary Garnet: Well, that's bizarre.
 * Blue Ocean: This isn't normal.
 * Green Shadow: What could this mean?
 * ???: Put your weapons down, Captain Blowhole. You're not raiding this city today.
 * Captain Blowhole: Oh no, he's here...
 * ???: For attempting to perform an unauthorized action against this city, you shall be punished!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Are you the Water God Captain Blowhole was talking about?
 * ???: Precisely. But there is no time.
 * Amelia Amethyst: What's the hurry?
 * Water God: The captain and his accomplices must serve their punishment for his actions. And I'm glad to deliver it to them.
 * Captain Blowhole: Just when I thought you were annoying enough to stop me from raiding the Peakea village, you have to stop me from raiding Echo Creek too?
 * Water God: I will not waste any more time with this nonsense, now face the consequences!
 * Captain Blowhole: Oh, you're not going to scare me again! Electric dolphins, attack!
 * Captain Blowhole: Come on, you cowards! Did I train you to fight or fear?
 * Water God: You have trained them for the wrong purposes, Captain. All evil must be punished.
 * Captain Blowhole: (gets sent flying far away) I'll be back, Water God! And I will have my revenge! (crashes into the ocean)
 * Red Fork: Wow...
 * Blade: That was amazing!
 * Water God: You're welcome, citizens. I shall return should you need my assistance, but I have other matters to attend to now. Farewell.
 * Red Ruby: Great! What a way to ruin my explosives idea! Thanks a lot, "Water God"!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Come on, Red. I'm sure there'll be one time when that idea will come in handy.
 * Red Ruby: (mumbling to himself) And just when the others have stolen enough of the spotlight from me...
 * Sean Sapphire: Well, that was weird. We still can't find Cosmos.
 * Bonk Choy: What do we do?
 * Blue Ocean: Go back home, I guess?
 * Boom: I suppose so.
 * Sean Sapphire: I guess so, hopefully we can find him sometime.
 * Green Shadow: Good idea, Blue Ocean. Let's go.
 * Red Ruby: And hopefully my ideas will be useful in the future.
 * Captain Blowhole: (slams his fist on his table) That meddlesome Water God has interfered my plans once again! Why does he have to poke his nose into my business? I was so close to my victory and he had to come at that very moment! My army didn't even try to attack him when he showed up, despite my orders and all my hard work training them for that very moment! And to be humiliated in front of my sworn enemies by him, ugh, that's just unacceptable! That's going to be the last time I'll ever let that happen! The Water God may be powerful, but that won't stop me from trying to get rid of him! But the question is, how do I do that? Let me look back at my previous plans.
 * Captain Blowhole: It's just like what happened in all of my raids in the Peakea village! The Water God was there, and that's when everything went wrong! My army was too afraid to fight back, the Water God quickly defeated all of us and it's back to the drawing board! So the main problem isn't only the Water God, but it's my army too? But I trained them hard to fight...unless...(a light bulb appear above his head), I've got my training methods all wrong! I shouldn't train them to fight, I should train their emotions! I should make them motivated enough to join me to take down the Water God! Only with pure anger in their hearts will they have the desire to fight without mercy! Yes, that's brilliant! I need to start writing a motivational speech to get the blood of my boys boiling!
 * Captain Blowhole: Gentlemen, you're not here because you're the best. You're here because you're all I've got - a battalion of soldiers that show no fear to all dangers and enemies! You may be upset because we have lost to the Locked Room Gang this afternoon, but let me hereby ask you a question: Do you electric dolphins want to win?
 * Electric Dolphins: (makes loud war cries in unison)
 * Captain Blowhole: Do you electric dolphins want treasure?
 * Electric Dolphins: (makes louder war cries in unison)
 * Captain Blowhole: Do you electric dolphins want to do our species proud?
 * Electric Dolphins: (makes even louder war cries in unison)
 * Captain Blowhole: Yes! (to himself) This motivational speech is working! Now it's time to go for the kill! (to his army of electric dolphins) Then let's band together as an army and show that meddlesome Water God that he has no right in interfering with our attacks and humiliating us with his presence! Who's with me?
 * Electric Dolphins: (falls silent in unison)
 * Captain Blowhole: No one? Come on, what did I train you for? Don't you electric dolphins want to win?
 * Electric Dolphins: (remains silent)
 * Captain Blowhole: You miserable cowards! Ugh!
 * Captain Blowhole: Those electric dolphins...I was doing so well and they immediately turned on me when I said that we'll get rid of the Water God together! Now they won't listen to me anymore! Unless...(another light bulb appears above his head)...I don't have to make their bloods boil with a motivational speech, I can do that by force! With a machine that will feed the anger that they need! Yes, I suppose that will do well with that awful speech I pulled off earlier.
 * Re-Peat Boss: Oh, it's you, Captain Blowhole. What do you want?
 * Captain Blowhole: Long time no see, Re-Peat Boss. I'm calling you for a favor.
 * Re-Peat Boss: I'm sorry, but I'm quite busy to deal with you now. I'm working on another machine.
 * Captain Blowhole: Well, that's perfect! I need one of your machines.
 * Re-Peat Boss: Why?
 * Captain Blowhole: I have a nemesis to deal with. I'll need a machine that can change the emotions of my boys, from fear to anger.
 * Re-Peat Boss: A nemesis? Who is it?
 * Captain Blowhole: Someone who self-proclaims himself as "Water God". He's not a real god, that's just his nickname.
 * Re-Peat Boss: Never heard of him. Oh well, if you need my help, I suppose I can give you something.
 * Captain Blowhole: Yes, I need an anger-inducing machine and I need one right now.
 * Re-Peat Boss: I don't have a anger-inducing machine, that will take weeks to assemble. But I do have an emotion-extracting machine ready. Would you like that instead?
 * Captain Blowhole: That would work too, I suppose. I need to get rid of the Water God as soon as possible
 * Re-Peat Boss: Perfect. I'll send Thornabelle over with the machine. I'm too busy right now to go for some underwater trip.
 * Captain Blowhole: Will do. Thanks again, Re-Peat Boss. (hangs up)
 * Captain Blowhole: (gets startled by Thornabelle's sudden appearance) That was fast. So you're Thornabelle?
 * Thornabelle: Precisely, Captain. Here's the emotion-extracting machine you've requested. And here's the bill.
 * Captain Blowhole: Speedy delivery? Much appreciated. (makes his payment)
 * Thornabelle: Of course, I'm perfection. However, there's a bank heist that I have to attend to. I must leave now. Please put this machine to good use. (teleports away)
 * Captain Blowhole: Not exactly what I'm going for, but this should do nicely. Once I extract the anger out of someone with this machine, I can use it again to make my army blood-thirsty and war-hungry! Now all I need is a hothead, and I know exactly who to go after. The Water God will disappear once he comes across my new and improved army and all these days of humiliation and defeat, they will be over!
 * Sean Sapphire: Well, that was easy. We could've been dead meat if it wasn't for the Water God.
 * Red Ruby: That guy? He showed up and stole my opportunity to blow the electric dolphins up! Now I'll never be able to prove how useful my explosives are!
 * Amelia Amethyst: I'm sure there'll be a next time, Red.
 * Red Fork: Don't forget Red, the point isn't to show off your skills. What's really important is that the villains were stopped.
 * Blue Ocean: (sarcasm) Yeah, because you'd "never" show off your abilities, right?
 * Red Fork: Touché...
 * Red Ruby: Just like all those times you abused your magic on me! (about to get angry, but calms himself down again) Alright...I'm fine, I'm fine, how about we continue that discussion on dealing with Cosmos, huh?
 * Blue Ocean: Well, I've still been trying to find a way around Cosmos' contract...
 * Electra: If only "someone" hadn't signed it...
 * Amelia Amethyst: What?
 * Red Fork: Now's not the time to be blaming others, Electra. We have to focus on getting solutions here.
 * Green Shadow: We still don't have any for now, so yes, we need to focus.
 * Red Ruby: I got it! I have an idea that doesn't involve explosions! It's...
 * Gary Garnet: Whoops, looks like we've got another distress signal! It must be Cosmos this time!
 * Red Ruby: Great, what a way to throw my train of thoughts off! Thanks a lot.
 * Lemon Glass: Don't worry, we can continue later. Right now we have to take care of this.
 * Red Ruby: (to himself) Now I'm starting to wonder if the others begin to treat me like a real member of their team...am I really part of the Locked Room Gang, let alone the gemstones? Why do I feel rejected? Why does no one listen to my ideas?
 * Amelia Amethyst: Come on, Red! What are we waiting for? (drags Red Ruby with her)
 * Sean Sapphire: Oh, come on! It had to be these guys?
 * Starcade: Wait a minute, I recognize these three plants.
 * Green Shadow: Me too. But they're not just any plants, they're Re-Peat Boss' team of plant villains. And they're robbing a bank?
 * Red Ruby: Come on, we had enough trouble with Captain Blowhole! Now we have to deal with these fools too?
 * Red Fork: No worries, we can handle them easily. Let's stop them in their tracks, what do you say?
 * Green Shadow: Let's do it.
 * Rooto: (notices the Locked Room Gang) Hey, look, it's those guys!
 * Shiitake: Rokkurūmugyangu? Karera wa koko de nani o shite iru nodesu ka? (Translation: The Locked Room Gang? What are they doing here?)
 * Thornabelle: They must be here to stop us! But that's not going to happen today, after I've replaced that foolish self-absorbed Black Planter as leader.
 * Electra: Well, you're not any better, to be honest...
 * Thornabelle: You're just pushing your luck, girl. Rooto, show them the door.
 * Rooto: Time to serve some hotheads with urm...hot heads!
 * Rooto: Coming in hot!
 * Amelia Amethyst: (activates a forcefield to protect the gang from Rooto's attacks) Alright, we need some ideas! How do we take care of them?
 * Red Ruby: Like I said, explosives!
 * Gary Garnet: You idiot, we'll be causing further unnecessary destruction with it!
 * Red Ruby: What do you mean? I say explosives will do the job faster than any "scientific" methods of yours!
 * Gary Garnet: Well, that's just so you, Red! Reckless and incompetent!
 * Red Ruby: How about you, Gary? You're just arrogant and helpless! Unlike you, I actually do things instead of talk about them!
 * Gary Garnet: And unlike you, I actually solve problems instead of cause more of them!
 * Red Ruby: Look who's talking, after that time you caused several problems to Echo Creek with that junk scrap-metal android of yours!
 * Gary Garnet: At least I fixed them in the end! What have you done that is actually useful? Nothing!
 * Red Ruby: Nothing?! (gets angrier to the point that he becomes even redder than usual) NOTHING?!
 * Electra: That's true though. Most of the time you're nothing but a liability. You just mindlessly threat villains with your explosive toys, only to get them even angrier and more aggressive. Do you have any idea of how many villains consider you the most annoying being in existence? There's Miss Bloomina, Ink Burst, Cosmos, Emily Gree- (Red Fork stares at her) ahem, excuse me... even my group thought you were the worst. And we still think so. I'd even go as far to say you're more annoying than Alice to me, and that's saying a lot!
 * Red Ruby: What?!
 * Blue Ocean: Red, your problem is that you never consider the consequences of your actions. Whenever you try to "help", all you do is blurt out as many threats as you can, and toss explosives without thinking. I think it's obvious that this approach isn't effective at all. Tell me, has that defeated even one major villain before? Most of the time, it only ends up with the villain getting angry at you, and making you shut up somehow.
 * Red Ruby: But...
 * Electra: Which I'm very thankful for when it happens...
 * Emily Green: Guys, could we try to take things easy? I don't think this is helping...
 * Blue Ocean: Not now, Emily, not now.
 * Emily Green: Ok...
 * Gary Garnet: Exactly. See, Red? You haven't done anything for us but make things worse! All you do is cause even more problems for us, and we end up fixing them for you!
 * Red Ruby: You shut up, Gary! (to everyone else, getting progressively angrier) I've been trying to help you all this while, I'm the voice of reason but you're all too blind to see that! You guys think you can team up on me just because you think otherwise? Well, I say we're going for the explosive approach, and I'm going to use that to teach the plant villains a lesson!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Um...Red?
 * Red Ruby: What!!!
 * Boom: (claps sarcastically) Way to go, blockhead. You let them escape!
 * Electra: We would already had them defeated if we hadn't had to stop to argue with you!
 * Lemon Glass: Red Ruby, do you think next time you could try to not let your emotions control your actions?
 * Boom: No hope. This blockhead with never learn.
 * Emily Green: Guys...
 * Amelia Amethyst: Uh oh.
 * Toby Topaz: This is bad, way bad! I'm scared...
 * Sean Sapphire: I've seen Red get angry, but not this angry...
 * Bonk Choy: Ah! The bank's on fire!
 * Lemon Glass: Yikes! (hides)
 * Blade: What got into him? (hides)
 * Boom: Red Ruby, stop this. It's making matters worse.
 * Green Shadow: It's no use, Boom. He has lost it.
 * Red Ruby: ARGH!!!
 * Bonk Choy: We gotta get out of here!
 * Gary Garnet: Fine by me!
 * Boom: Well, I guess when the police arrests him for destroying the bank, it'll be his problem.
 * Electra: I'd be relieved if they sned that screwloose to jail for a while. He really needs a good time-out for his behavior.
 * Emily Green: I still think you shouldn't be so hard on him...
 * Blue Ocean: Not now Emily, not now.
 * Emily Green: Ok...
 * Red Ruby: I could've used my explosives and easily stopped those plant villains from getting away with their robbery, but no, you're all stupid enough to prevent me from dealing with them! Look what just happened, we just let those villains get away! And they're probably even the most minor of villains we've dealt with as a gang, that's just...UNACCEPTABLE!
 * Green Shadow: Red, we all make mistakes. This is...
 * Red Ruby: That's what you always say! And every time I try to help, you stop me, thinking I was being reckless by coming up with an idea that will actually help! You know something? Ever since Starcade and Kyoji invited us gemstones to join you, I've always thought you were my friends who I can trust in. Perhaps even my second family! But no, ever since you took in ex-villains and started befriending freaks, you ruined everything! I mean, that's not how things are supposed to go! Now we have more problems coming our way thanks to those who were never supposed to be a part of us in the first place! Opposite Blast...
 * Amelia Amethyst: You mean Boom?
 * Red Ruby: I shall call him whatever I like, Amelia! Ever since you guys brought in Opposite Blast and his team, they have been nothing but trouble! It was already bad enough for that two-faced shadow ninja girl, whatever her name is, to join our team. But you all had to invite Opposite Blast's team in and even that jerk Emily Green too? And every time I get into an argument with them, you had to take their side and not mine, thinking that they are right just because they used to be villains while I have been in the gang longer than they do! That alone proves how much you have been neglecting and mistreating me as a gang member ever since you took the ex-villains in, and I'm not cool with that! In fact, I can say that you have betrayed me and treated me like how you used to treat them as villains! Opposite Blast is just acting like a self-centered punk, Electra is just an arrogant brat who has been giving me nothing than pain, Scorch isn't even bothered about what's going on, Blade is simply weak and Emily Green...I mean, Emily Green? She's a psychopathic jerk who only cares for herself and you know it!
 * Red Fork: Emily? Are you ok?
 * Emily Green: Leave me alone! (runs away, crying)
 * Red Ruby: (notices the gang staring at him with disapproval) What?! Am I wrong?
 * Green Shadow: Red, I understand how angry you are, but you've just gone too far by hurting Emily's feelings.
 * Starcade: You crossed the line, pal. You should go apologize to her!
 * Red Ruby: What? Me, apologize to her?
 * Red Fork: Yes. What you said was very rude. Look, she might have been bad in the past, but she's changed. She isn't the same person she was before. These days have been really hard for her because she's still very regretful of what she did in the past. She even told me she has nightmares about it.
 * Blue Ocean: We're trying to help her let go of her past so it doesn't haunt her anymore, but what you've done isn't helping at all!
 * Red Fork: She's trying hard to change, and you know it!
 * Blue Ocean: Look, I know you're usually rude to people, but hurting someone's feelings to the point of making her cry is going way too far.
 * Red Ruby: I rather leave this gang than apologize to that psychopath! And you know what? That's a great idea, I might as well just do that! Since you started bringing in ex-villains, none of you have ever treated me like an actual member of your gang! None of you cared if I was angry, none of you cared if I had a different opinion, none of you cared if I was in need of help and none of you cared if my feelings were hurt! And I bet none of you even care after you have pushed me up to this point, where I am just letting it all out! All you do is team up against me and take the side of the other party whenever I'm involved in a conflict! So what, you may be more powerful than me but that doesn't mean you can abuse your powers to take advantage of me! Especially you, Red Fork! Huh? A big glutton and a show-off with no sense of respect for his friends, always using your magic on me whenever I try to solve problems!
 * Green Shadow: Hey, that's Red Fork you're talking about!
 * Red Ruby: See? That's exactly what I'm talking about, you guys start teaming up on me! I'm done with you guys telling me what to do, I will not apologize to that psychopathic jerk Emily Green and I'm leaving the gang forever! Good luck collapsing without my presence, and stay away from me! I'm never coming back!
 * Toby Topaz: Red...
 * Red Ruby: FOREVER!!!
 * Blade: Wow... that escalated quickly.
 * Lemon Glass: Do you think he really means it?
 * Sean Sapphire: Well, Red usually means what he says, so that's most likely.
 * Toby Topaz: Does this mean that he left us?
 * Amelia Amethyst: Red told me a few times about how he felt like leaving the gang. I didn't really think he meant it. (sheds a tear)
 * Toby Topaz: Oh no. Did we really lose him as a member?
 * Diana Diamond: I'm sure he'll be back, Toby. I hope.
 * Boom: I wouldn't take that guy seriously if I were you.
 * Electra: And if he does decide to leave for good, well, I guess it'll be one more thing that improved in my life.
 * Red Fork: (uses his magic to lift Boom and Electra) That attitude isn't helping.
 * Boom: What? You're going to play your tricks on us too?
 * Blade: Guys, I think we should calm down. An argument already made us lose one member of the gang. Let's not let another argument take away more members of the gang.
 * Red Fork: (lets go of Boom and Electra)
 * Red Fork & Boom: Ok...
 * Amelia Amethyst: So now what? We go back home? I'm kinda not in the mood to do anything right now, after you know, Red left us for good.
 * Diana Diamond: I think that's the best we can do. I'll try to convince him to return to us when I have the chance.
 * Blue Ocean: Ok.
 * Red Fork: Well, let's go back home, I guess.
 * Electra: Shouldn't we try to track down the plant villains and recover the stolen money from the bank?
 * Sean Sapphire: After dealing with two problems and losing a member? I'm not so sure.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Yeah, let's go home.
 * Diana Diamond: You all go ahead, I'll look for Red Ruby and see how he's doing.
