Steven Universe and Alexandra Crystal Gem Universe

Alexs' Lion

A sandstone column collapses and forms a pile of sand.

The Gems begin to climb over the pile.

"W-water. Water. So thirsty. For water." Steven says as he crawls on the piles of sand.

"You are being overdramatic, Steven," Alex says with an amused smile.

"It'll be safer if you stand up and walk," Pearl tells him.

"You don't...understand. This. Is how. You're supposed to act... in the desert." Steven pants.

Alex rolls her eyes, but doesn't say anything to him.

"Is this the right place, Garnet?" she asks as she looks up at Garnet.

"Yes. The power in the structures has turned aimless." Garnet answers with her hands on her hips.

"It's building columns with no roofs, stairs that go nowhere! This is out of control!" Pearl exclaims.

"Then I guess we better roll on over there. Hehehe" Amethyst jumps over Steven and rolls down the sand pile.

"That was a bit unnecessary," Pearl tells her.

Amethyst mocks her.

"Excuse me?!" Pearl exclaims.

Suddenly a roar sound comes out of nowhere.

"What was that?" Steven asks frightened.

"Let's go!" Amethyst cheers excitedly.

"It'll be best if you and Alex stay here, Steven," Garnet says adjusting her Sunglasses.

"Fine with me." Alex shrugs. (hiding her pout and failing at it badly)

"What if something eats us?!" Steven asks worriedly.

"Do not worry," Garnet wipes the sweat off his face and flicks it back at him. "Wet One. There's nothing out there that can harm you. Besides, you have your sister who protects you. See you soon."

"Ok," Alex says as she leans against a pillar.

"It's. So. Desert." Steven puts his shirt over eyes.

He and Alex hear a growl.

"What was that?" He asks as he scans his surroundings.

"Nothing that can harm you. Wet One." Alex says as she still leans lazily against the pillar.

The column collapses and a pink furred Lion is standing there.

Steven falls in surprise and begins to panic.

"Calm down, Steven. This Lion is harmless." Alex says as she pets the Lion.

"Aw, you just wanted attention." Steven starts to pet the lion and to talk with it.

Alex rolls her eyes as she leans against the Lion and closes her eyes.

The Lion nuzzles her.

"Aww, it seems to like you," Steven says with stars in his eyes.

"I guess, it does," Alex says as she smiles at the Lion.

"Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl are coming. Quick, put my head in your mouth!" Steven gasps as he opens Lion's mouth.
