The girl ran kicked her kickstand, parking the motorcycle, and ran over to where Pearl was standing. Pearl conveys a nervous smile trying to be nice but inside she was terrified. She didn't know why, but she always feels this way around the girl. "C'mon lets go" The girls says grabbing Pearl's hand nearly yanking her from where her feet were planted.
Pearl blushes. She feels that this is wrong somehow but she can't pinpoint exactly why it felt so wrong.
I don't even know her name. Maybe that was it?
They walk a short distance until Pearl stops still holding onto mystery girl's hand. The girl turns back being stopped short.
"What's up?" Mystery girl asks.
"It's just..I don't really..You never really told me your name." Pearl hesitates to say.
"Oh," the girl laughs "I'm so sorry, it's Storm."
Pearl blushes immensely. What a beautiful name. Humans have such unique names unlike gems. We all share the same names corresponding with our gems.
The girl smiles, "C'mon!"
Pearl and Storm walk into Fish Stew Pizza. The two girls behind the counter turn around in zest. "Storm," Kiki shouts, "what are you doing here?"
"I'm just taking my friend Pearl out to dinner..Thought we'd drop by ." Storm responds.
"Your friends with Pearl?" Jenny (Kiki's sister) asks not expecting that they could possibly be friends.
"Storm is friends with just about everybody" Kiki replies for her.
"True" Storm sums up in one word.
They walk up to the counter and Storm turns to Pearl.
"I hope your up for pizza cuz I'm gonna order a few pies if that okay with you"
Pearl nods nervously. She knows that secretly deep down the idea of eating food disgusts her. She can barley tolerate eating breakfast with Steven and the other crystal gems but she takes one or two bites to make him happy. "We'll take five pepperoni pies. You like pepperoni?"
Pig? She actually eats sliced up animals? That's disgusting. "Uh yeah" Pearl says out of panic. She feels the need to impress Storm, but why?
After ordering the pizza, Storm and Pearl look for a table. Pearl was surprised when Storm had already pulled out a chair for her. She politely says thank you as Storm sits in the chair across the other side of the table. "..I've been meaning to ask you..What are you? I mean I've heard stories of these
gem-human-like-alien-creatures but I never would have thought they'd be so..Beautiful.."
Pearl's face turns light blue than gets back on track stating her purpose..
"...Well..My purpose is to fight for the earth and protect humanity.."
Fascinated, Storm leans in and puts both elbows on the table "Wow thats really cool! Tell me everything!"
"Well..It's a long story..I don't know if-well, okay.." Pearl clears her throat
"It all started with pink diamond.."
