The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 30.

Pearl: How did you find this place? I recall, we didn't tell you this place. At least, not yet.

You: I was just looking at the moon on my balcony and I saw you guys creeping around. I thought-

Garnet: No, what we mean is how did you enter here?

Garnet: How did you know about the password to enter this place?

You: It was lucky guest. But that's enough question for the three of you. Now it's my time for some questioning.

The crystal gems shake in fear.

You: What is this place? Where are we?

The crystal gems look each other for ideas but they don't know what to do.

You: Playing dumb eh? Well, how about this?

Your gem lights up and your diamond eyes are back.

You: If you don't tell me what exactly this place is, I will destroy it with my diamond powers. Got that?

Pearl: Y/N wait!

You: 10..

The crystal gems are super overwhelmed about their situation. You just smirked knowing your next count will make them submit.

You: 9-8-7-6-5-!!

Amethyst: What?! Y/N is isn't fair!! Give us some couple of minutes first!

You just ignored amethyst, and keep on counting. They are overwhelmed, they don't know what to do. They don't know if they can trust you or not. Garnet was starting to unfuse, pearl is crying, and amethyst was getting angry at you. Finally pearl snap and couldn't bear it anymore.

You: 4-3-2-1-!!

Pearl: Fine Y/N we will tell you!!

You: (smirks*) Finally, I don't want to destroy this place anyway since it is fascinating.

Your gem stopped glowing and your diamond eyes are gone.

You: So, speak up.

Pearl, looked at garnet and amethyst and they nodded at each other.

Garnet flips a switch and the entire room was lighten up. The bright was so intense, it was blinding your eye. After a few seconds, you open your eyes and saw a lot of tombs. You actually aren't surprised because you know this place. But, you decided to play along since they will suspect you if you told them you know this place.

You: Woah, what is this place?!!

Echo's saying "place" is filled in the room.

Garnet: This my friend, is non other than the tomb of the fallen.

You are actually surprised by this. Sure you know this place but you don't know specifically what is the purpose of this place.

You: Wait what?!!

Pearl: (sigh*) I knew this is how you would react...(talks to herself*)

Pearl: Y/N, what you're witnessing is the ancient tombs of the fallen. Or the tomb of the humans that partake of the war.

You are amazed and shocked at the same time of this place. The place was huge. The color of the walls is just plain white, there are like thousands of names written in the wall. And not only that, you are standing to your very own descendant's grave, this is what an honor for you. The wall was like 100m long and it's width is super large. You couldn't describe it.

You: (looking up*) So this is the graveyard of the fallen.

Pearl: That's right y/n. 5,300 years ago, arrow ackerman or the leader of humanity suggested to build this massive tomb  in honor for our fallen comrades. Of course, there are no gems here.
