Steven Universe and Alexandra Crystal Gem Universe

Serious Steven

[Inside the Ward Pad]

"Pay attention Steven, this is going to be yours and Alex's first serious mission. You need to be ready." Pearl says.

"Yes! I'm ready, I'm so ready!" Steven cheers excitedly as he warps upside down.

"Mo- I-I mean Pearl...Are you saying that the mission with the Sea Spire wasn't serious? I mean it was fun...especially the explosion at the end....and the paddling back home," Alex asks her with a grin.

"No, Alex.... almost dying is not fun," Pearl sighs as she rubs her forehead.

Alex shrugs her head as she crosses her arms.

"Steven comes on, you're gonna make yourself sick." She turns him upright and gets hit in the eye by his ukulele.

"Why did you bring that?" Pearl scoffs.

"I don't know! I was excited and i-it's mine, and I like it!" Steven says anxiously. His Ukulele floats away and Steven swims after it.

"Steven get back here! You could get seriously-."

The Gems warp into a former battlefield and Steven warps several yards away.

"...hurt! Steven! Are you-" Pearl says.

"I'm fine! I'm just... gooey.! Steven says as he licks his arm. A bunch of butterflies flies to him and cling themselves to his face.

"Aah! They're in my eyes!" Steven yells as she runs.

Alex laughs slightly.

Garnet swats them away. "They're just butterflies, Steven. "She says.

"Well, they looked a lot bigger when they were on my eyeballs." Steven laughs.

"Steven, you're a riot." Amethyst jokes and laughs.

"Now let's go recover the gemstone," Garnet says.

The Gems, Alex and Steven walk through the filled, the field is littered with swords stuck into the ground.

"Unbelievable, this was once a Gem battlefield, now it's wild strawberries as far as the eye can see! Oh, that is what I love about the Earth! Maybe this will be a light mission after all." Pearl says.

"Eh...I don't think so," Alex says as they stand in front of a Pyramid temple.

Garnet summons a missing piece in Pyramid and places it into the slot.

The temple door opens

Alex looks at the walls and notices some old, weird paintings off...

Is this Steven's mom? Alex eyes widen a little bit, but she didn't ask...yet.

"Steven's the best!" Steven yells and it echoes back.

"Why thank you, temple," Steven says.

"Hey, what's this thing? " Alex asks as she pointed at a triangle thing.

"Whatever it is, you probably shouldn't touch it," Pearl says.

"I wasn't touching it... mo-" Alex starts but was cut off as she temple begins to shake, and the ceiling begins to crumble.

"Steven! What have we told you about touching magical things?" Pearl asks.
