The Loud Universe (Part 1: The Burden) (DISCONTINUED)

Night Two

It was getting late. Flickering, dim roadlights escorted us along the way. Me and my sisters were walking back to the motel.

"Lincoln, you're great! This place IS perfect. I love it. Someone finally really adored my rock." Luna said.

"I gotta admit, twerp, it's pretty good hanging out there. No problems out there, at least." Lori said.

"Thanks, guys, really. It's nothing. You guys are the one who made this the night of my life." I said.

"What? No, dummy. You're the one who asks to be here at the first place! Thanks bro. Come here!" Lynn said, hugging me, pressing her fist on my forehead.

I was glad we stopped fighting. "Oh please." I rubbed Lynn's hair as return.

"Hey we're here." Luan said.

"Hope mom and dad didn't get mad. Because I don't want this night got spoiled." Lucy said.

We came into our room, when mom and dad were glaring at us, looking angry.

"Uh.. hi mom, dad, we just walk around the ... you know, bingo bongo!" Leni giggled.

"What were you're thinking?" Mom said.

"No, mom, we stick together. No one goes alone. Just like you said." I said.

"Still this is too late. What are you thinking? You could put yourself in danger!" Dad exclaimed.

"We have some fun with Steven, Dad. Steven Universe. It's Lincoln's dream. This is what we're gonna do right? Making Lincoln happy?" Lynn added.

"Yeah. This is my dream." I agreed

"Still, but you know what they're saying: There's an 80 percent chance you have a stalker on your back." Lisa said.

"See?" Dad said. "Now go off to bed, kids. It's safe only when it's daylight, you only can meet him at that time." Mom said.

"Oh, that sucks." We grunted.

"Well,it's late. Go to bed." Mom said. So some of us, including me slept on the floor again, and as usual, Lori and Lola slept on the bed. This time, Lucy and Lynn slept beside me. This time, before sleeping, I closed the window, in case if something -- like that butterfly figure from previous night -- came in. No one even asked me why did I do that.

"Thanks for the night, Linc." Lynn said to me.

"Yeah, it's fine." I replied.

Surprisingly no more conversation between us, even among the sisters that didn't come along with us. It soon became a calm night.

Calm, quiet night.

I again, couldn't sleep, not because afraid, I had a pretty exhausting night, and it was paid off. I finally could meet one and only Steven Universe.

An hour later, I closed my eyes.

I had a dream, but kinda blurry, I barely remember any moment at that dream. What I did know, was that we were on a beach. Having fun. Beach City.

But then, the waves that rolled got bigger and formed something tall. And so as the shining sun, shaped into a thin but tall figure.

I remembered we ran for our safety, and when I looked back at those strange waves and sun, it became two almost similar but different colored figures.

The Diamonds. Yellow and Blue Diamond.

"Look at this filthy planet. Let's just get this over with." Yellow Diamond said.
