The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 36.

Iron: Hmm, seems easy enough (iron was about to throw a ball*)

Mr. smiley: Wait!! Let me finish! (mr. smiley clears his throat*) You two must knock down atleast half of the men before time runs out. The timer is set to just 1 minute. If 1 minute has passed and you didn't knock out half the men you loose the game. Now, any questions?

You: No questions for me.

Iron: Same with me.

Mr. smiley: (smiles*) Let the game begin!!

Mr. smiley pushed a button and the little men starts moving. Iron is shocked because mr. smiley didn't said anything about this.

Iron: Hold on, you didn't tell me those little humans will move. That's unfair!

Mr. Smiley: Well sorry (chuckles*), guess I forgot.

You: Come on Iron, time is running out.

You started to throw some balls and you hit a couple of men down.

Iron: Tchh, fine.

Iron started to throw as many little balls as she can. Unfortunately the little mens dodged all of the balls that iron throwed. Iron is also getting overwhelmed because time is running out and she didn't even knock out atleast one men. You noticed iron getting angry at the game a little and you thought for a second.

You: Hmm, iron give me all of your balls.

Iron: What?!?! Shouldn't we help each other?!

You: Just trust me on this. I can win this for us.

The timer is almost at 30 seconds.

Iron: But I-

You: Just please trust me.

Iron sighs and gives you her balls. You smirked knowing what you have to do. Suddenly, you throw your balls and iron's balls at the same time, knocking out a lot of the mens. Mr. smiley is shocked.

Mr. Smiley: Wait, you can't do that!

You: (to iron*) Just give me a lot of those balls and I can win this.

Iron nodded and grabs as many balls as she can and hands it to you. And you continued throwing as many balls as you can and knocking off those little men.

You: Why? You didn't told me before we started the game. And also, what's wrong with my technique? This is just how I throw, and besides you didn't told us that the little mens are gonna move and dodge all of our attacks, caughting us off guard. So, I think this is legal unless, this game is rigged and you want us to loose, right?

Mr. smiley is speechless, seconds has passed and the game is over. The times is finish and you successfully won the game by doing your technique and iron helping you.

You: The prize please. The big teddy bear one.

Mr. smiley rumbles to himself and gets the huge teddy bear and handed it to you.

You: Thanks mr. smiley. Here you go iron. (you hand it to iron*)

Iron: Thank you for winning this y/n!!

Iron hugs the bear tightly.

Mr. smiley: (forces a smile*) No problem!!

You and Iron left and decided to check on the other games on funland.

At the barn*

Steven then looks awkwardly away and presses the rewind button, rewinding the tape all the way back to the beginning of Peridot's logs on Earth, cuing in several flashbacks
