Steven Universe and Alexandra Crystal Gem Universe

Mirror Gem

Steven lies on the couch and talks with Connie on the phone while Alex meditates next to him.

"What? Why not?" Steven asks

"Steven, I told you. I can't hang out today. I have tennis practice. And then Mom wants to go out for a family dinner. But she said I could hang out all day tomorrow, and I can come over all the time now that it's summer vacation." Connie explains.

"What's summer vacation?" Steven asks her as he lies upside down on the couch.

"You know, when school gets out for the summer?" Connie says.

"I've never been to this – how do you say---"school". How does it work?" Steven wonders.

"It's a place where you go to learn. It's full of desks, chalkboards., Books and Maps." Connie tells him.

"I see." Steven says.

"What are you planning to do now, Stev? And please don't say I have to do it with you..." Alex says with her eyes closed.

"We are going to make a school." Steven says.

"We?"Alex looks at him.

"You, me and Pearl." Steven says smiling.

"Why me ?" Alex asks him.

"Well, it would be kinda boring  without you, you know. Please, join us." Steven pleads her.

Alex sighs. "Of course, I'll join you." She says.

"Yes! I'll go find Pearl." Steven says excited.

"This is going to be....just great." Alex says as she rolls her eyes.

Pearl assembles all the things that Connie mentioned on the floor.

"Yep, it's all coming together." Steven says as he looks at the pile on the floor.

"So,how do we begin our „school"?" Pearl asks him smiling,

"Ugh....I....I don't know! That is everything Connie told me. Why do I never ask follow-up questions?! Who will teach little Stevie now!?" Steven says as he holds the locker beside him.

"You are always overdramatic, little Stevie." Alex says with a small smirk on her lips.

"Teach you?! Steven! If only I had known that's what you two really wanted!" Pearl gasps basically jumping with excitement as she summons a mirror from her gem.

"We found this Gem-powered mirror at the Galaxy Warp. It can capture and display any even it's witnessed in all of Gem history." Pearl explains as the mirror twirls in mid-air and places itself in Steven's hands.

Steven gasps while Alex looks at curiously.

She notices a broken Gem on the back of the Mirror, and suddenly she widens her eyes.

A Lapis Lazuli? But there were no Lapis Lazulis used in this experiment, right?

No...So,this gem must be what's left of  Rose's Rebellion. Don't you see it? This Gem has probably done nothing wrong and it was still poofed. How can you still think that what Rose Quartz did is justified? She killed our Diamond.

I'm not protecting Rose and I am angry at her for killing Pink Diamond.But her son...Steven...he has nothing to do with it. You can't just kill him for what his mother did.

He IS Rose Quartz. I am not angry at him...I pity him, cause he has to pay for his mother's mistakes. Even if  I won't kill him  others will try. I'll just wanna see his face when he and the rest of this clods realise that Rose Quartz isn't as good as she pretended to be. Imagine how much it'll hurt them.
