The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 39.

y/f: y/n..

You started to cry seeing your first friend and greatest teacher for 17 years. You couldn't contain it anymore and you started to run at him. As soon as you reach up at him, you hug him and y/f hugs you too. You cry at his shoulder.

You: (crying*) Y/F, i miss you! I I really do!

y/f: Y/N, I miss you too. And look at you, you've grown so much. So strong, so healthy, it makes me proud like a father.

You: (crying*) Thank you y/f, even though my parents are the worst. You were the one who taught me, who trained me, raised me right. To me, you are a better parent than my actual parents.

y/f: It makes my heart warm, y/n.

You: Y/F, I killed so much people being the shadow assassin. The crystal gems even hate me for what I did to them. But I am trying so much to redeem myself to them. Y/F, what do I do?

y/f: It was never you're fault y/n, you were corrupted. You are just an innocent person being drag on something you didn't know.

Y/F grab your face and wipe your tears.

y/f: Y/N, what you're doing so far is right. Keep trying to redeem yourself to them, prove to them you change. But, if they can't move on from what you did to the past then they don't deserve you. In short, they are not your true friends.

You: How shall I know if they are my true friends?

y/f: A true friend doesn't care what you did in the past, instead they accept you for who you are now.

You: Woah.

You are taken back from one of your friend's wisdom. It really hits you hard knowing something that they despite.

y/f: Come on, I will tell you a secret.

Y/F started to walk away and you instantly followed him. As you two are walking you keep seeing a bunch of human statues at the side of the walls.

You: What's with the statues y/f?

y/f: Y/N, ever since my spirit left my body. I have been curious about the universe. I have been searching about my family bloodline. And after decades of searching I find out we are related to each other.

You are shocked for what you hear.

You: What?!?!

y/f: Yes, that was my same reaction when I first find out.

You: So, doest that mean you're my cousin?! Holy sh*t!

y/f: Yes, my father has a long lost brother and your biological father is the lost brother.

You and y/f stopped walking.

y/f: Y/N, this is my monument.

You looked at y/f's statue and you are amazed at how cool it is.

You: That is so cool y/f! You have your very own monument! But, what does that mean exactly? (rubbing your chin*)

y/f: This statues, are our dead family members. And if you try to talk to any of them, they will appear.

You: That's so cool, let me try summoning the pirate one.

You tried to run back to the pirate statue

y/f: (grabs your shoulder*) Wait, you can only summon one at a time. If you really want to summon him that means I need to dissapear if you want to talk to another one.

You: Why can't I summon everyone though? And can't you talk to our fellow dead family members?

y/f: I don't know, I tried to but it didn't work. Here, find a guy named "ethan". Maybe, he can answer all of your questions about our family.
