Steven, Homeworld, Danger... Diamonds... Those words don't sound too comforting together, right? Who said this was a comforting story? For Steven and the gems, things finally don't go right. When Steven is separated from Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl during the attempt to retrieve his father from the zoo, he is found, and quickly identified as a rose quartz gem... and not just any, but the rebellion leader's own son. Blue and Yellow Diamond create a master plan to finally eliminate the Crystal Gems, and Steven is the key to doing so. All they have to do is play a game of emotions, and things will soon fall into their hands, due to a very unlikely snitch. Will Steven be able to resist the Diamonds and escape, or will Steven's Universe crumple because of himself? (Rated T, to be on the completely safe side, but I seriously doubt there will be anything too bad in my fanfiction, as I am trying to make it as close to the style of the show as possible! AU, takes place right after 'That Will Be All'. I DO NOT OWN STEVEN UNIVERSE! REBECCA SUGAR DOES! ONLY CHARACTERS NOT MENTIONED IN THE SHOW BUT ARE IN THIS FANFICTION BELONG TO ME! Cover art also belongs to me. By the way, those diamonds look white on the computer, but on the actual paper they are yellow. Just to lead my readers out of the way of confusion.)

He really messed up. That was all he could think as the Diamonds glared coldly down at him. He was going to die here on Homeworld and Lars would be a prisoner, forever. He failed them. The story is based on "The Trial" and exploring the idea of what would happen if Steven and Lars never escaped Homeworld.

What if instead of Steven being born with a Rose Quartz as a gem, he was born with a diamond and grew up on homeworld? This story follows Steven Universe and his adventures as he grows up on homeworld with his diamond family. (Cover art is not mine. All credits go to the original artist.
