Ocean Crystal Gem (a Steven Universe AU)

chapter 1 just another day in beach city

Disclaimer, the following is a non-profit fan-based AU fanfiction Steven Universe is owned by Cartoon Network and Rebecca sugar, please support the official release.

Hi everyone! Welcome to my first solo Steven universe fanfiction. This will be an alternate universe like what if lapis lazuli, in a twist of fate, ran into rose quartz and inspired lapis to grow beyond her tera forming purposes as a normal civilian, to never give up and protect the planet earth alongside her fellow crystal gems and takes care of rose's son, Steven, as a sister figure alongside amethyst,

here are the changes in this AU fanfiction

lapis never got trapped in a mirror for 6,000 years and thus doesn't have PTSD

lapis never got her gem broken and still has her water wings

lapis has met rose quartz and the crystal gems

lapis Is less willing to run and more willing to fight to protect her loved ones and Is more emotionally open and friendly to others than in the canon series

lapis has received training from the crystal gems and is more in control of her hydrokinesis powers, including her ability to make water clones, water creations, and controlling water temperature

lapis has her own personal twin gem weapons forged by bismuth

the diamonds use shapeshifting to vary their height (either human-sized or giant, perhaps further beyond)

the Diamond's powers are effective on humans (excluding destabilization from yellow Diamond)

garnet, pearl, and amethyst have a good relationship with lapis, and they live together and would often go on missions together

Steven and Connie are just friends (I'm not good at romance)

Greg teaches Steven homeschool.

Steven has been taken to the hospital before and has met dr maheswaran.

this may cover the entire series with lapis lazuli having a more active role, and things may turn out different,

and now, let's begin our story

It was a beautiful day in a small town in Delaware, Maryland, called beach city. It was a beautiful place. It looked like the perfect place for a vacation, quiet for the most part, but a great place to live,

on a sandy part of the beach, a young boy, dressed in a pink-red t-shirt with a star on the middle, had fluffy black hair, wore jeans and pink sandals were walking along the beach, towards a large mountain-like structure on the coast with a smile on his face he was turning around a corner when he felt something wet touch him from behind, the young boy's eye widened and spun around, but saw nothing, he then felt something wet again, and the boy turned towards the source, and again, saw nothing, he started walking again, when suddenly he felt a stream of water spray all over him,

"hehe, hahaha!! No...!!" the young boy started to giggle, enjoying the water "stop! Hahaha!! there's water all over me...hahaha!!"

There was another giggle as a slim but considerably tall female figure with cyan skin and cobalt blue chin-length hair with long bangs walked over from the corner. Her cyan-skinned hands waved open as her eyes remained closed as she giggled. She wore a backless blue halter crop top with an upward-facing navy triangle that is held together by a blue sash ribbon on the back of her shoulders. She also wore a flowing cobalt blue skirt that is calf length with a downward-facing navy triangle around her waist, and she wore no shoes.

"I sure got you there, steven!" giggled the girl, her eyes closed with happiness as she kept the water jet spraying on steven, almost as if she was controlling the water with her hands.
