He pulled a coin from his jacket and asked jasmine:
"Heads or tails?"
"Uuuh...tails!" She responded with, nearly shaking with excitement.
He gave her a gentle gentle nod and flipped the coin high up into the air only to then jump up and grab the coin, gracefully floating back down and landing perfectly on his feet.

"Tails, good job." He said
Jasmine giggled, simping as always.
"Do you wanna know my favourite power?" He asked
"You have more than one!!" Jasmine exclaimed.
"I do, and my jacket counts as one of them," He said
I was shocked and confused,his jacket? I mean the jacket is nice, but how is it a power?

Luckily, Cherryl asked my question for me.
"How is that a power? It's just a jacket."
She was clearly sceptical of so-called powers, however he proved her wrong.
He raised his eyebrow, took of his jacket and chucked it. jasmine grabbed it,squealing and bouncing up and down.
Sometimes I wonder how much more of a fangirl that girl can get.
Jasmine was showing the jacket to the other girls when Steven snapped his fingers; And the jacket disappeared, leaving behind pink glitter in Jasmine's hand.
The girls gasped but Steven only laughed.

I looked at his arms and noticed how strong he is. Damn! This kid could take a quartz army with ease!

Anyways, off-topic.

"Where's the jacket gone?" Jasmine asked, stunned.
"Well, its currently everywhere but is nowhere to be found." The hybrid responded with.

He's really good at not giving a straight answer.

Answering Jasmine's question, he popped the collar of what would have been his jacket and just like that:

He had the jacket on!!!!

Majority of the girls gasped, but I just stood still.
"Now, you all must be wondering why you are here." Steven began
"As you can see, my pearl is not with me. Unfortunately, she faced an untimely death a few days ago. Since the reef has decided it just wont generate new Pearls, I've decided for the first time ever to have a human pearl! Which if you haven't gathered yet will be one of you 10 wonderful ladies standing before me."

Chatter erupted between the 9 girls beside me. I yet again stood silently.

"But first, I need to run tests on you all" He said, quieting down the group of exited teen girls.
"I need a girl who is kind, brave, fearless and works well under pressure"
His face grew serious, silencing the group.
He looked into the eyes of each girl, first Jasmine's and last mine.

When he looked me dead in the eyes I noticed a peculiar feature:everything about him was so welcoming; his eyes however,were the opposite. They were quite cunning, they could trick you into letting them inside of you, allowing them to read your story over and over, only to find that you can only read the blurb of theirs.
Steven somehow noticed I had figured him out and smirked.
"10X12" He said,still smirking.
"Yes?" I replied, still staring him down.
"Could you stand here for me please and Jasmine,could you stand opposite" He asked sweetly.
Jasmine and I followed the instructions given, standing opposite each other, the hybrid standing between us.
"So,how long have you two known each other?" He asked
"Not long" I responded
"Yeah, I've seen her a couple times around school, but we only just properly met today," Jasmine told him.

"Perfect"

He was smirking but his eyes had changed colour to a dark brown and his pupils changed to that of a humans.

Something was off, I could tell.

"I have a question for you,(Y/n), if you don't mind me asking," Steven asked me.

"Go ahead!" I replied kindly

He pulled a gun from his gem and pointed it at jasmine and asked me:

"Her in the head or you in the chest"

I couldn't believe he was actually doing this! Jasmine looked me in the eyes, she looked terrified. If he shot her in the head there was a very slim chance of her living,but if he shot me in the chest there's no way of me surviving.
"Uh- I-I..." I stuttered,scared for the both of us.
I didn't think it could get any worse, but then he started counting.

"5"

"Well, I havent known her for long..."

"4"

" ...But jasmine is so kind and bubbly..."

"3"

"...And she would make a great assistant..."

"2"

"...So shoot me and take her as your pearl!" I shouted

"Okay" Steven responded, pointing the gun directly where my heart is,never breaking his eye contact with me.

Everyone else in the room gasped. I noticed lavender had tears in her eyes.

"(Y/n), no!" Jasmine whispered.

I smiled sweetly at lavender and mouthed:

"Thank you for everything, I love you."

I looked back at the boy who stood in front of me.

I wasn't afraid of him or death.

He smirked, winked at me and without hesitation...

pulled the trigger.
