The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 43.

Steven: I already tried but it didn't work. I can't figure out how, and it's taking forever to reach the ground. Can you guys just keep me company until I land?

The Gems begins to do their best to help Steven pass the night comfortably. Amethyst hurls a soda can at Steven, and then a bag of chips, but it accidentally hits a seagull passing by.

Amethyst: Oooh...

Garnet then begins playing checkers with Steven. Steven makes a move, then Garnet discovers a chain and captures all of Steven's pieces in one fell swoop.

Steven: Wha... (sighs at his loss*)

Amethyst: So, how are going to get up there?

You: I can't, but garnet here. (gives her your pizza*) Give this to steven so he won't starve to death.

Steven keeps descending ever so slowly as the sun begins to rise. Pearl plays a picture-guessing game on the sand with Steven.

Steven: Is it a broom? No, it's a spear!

Pearl gives Steven a thumbs-up. Suddenly in the background, Steven's Cookie Cat alarm goes off.

Amethyst: Hey, Steven, why is your alarm going off?(Steven gasps heavily as he flashes back to the previous night.

Steven: Six fifty five A.M. That should give me enough time to get to the Big Donut right when it opens at 7.Donut
Steven's Imagination in Sadie's voice*)Fresh...

Steven: Oh, nuts, my donuts! (speaks into his phone*) Guys, I need to get down right now!

Garnet turns off the alarm clock while Amethyst holds onto Kofi's phone.

Amethyst: What's the hurry, dude? You got nowhere to be.

Pearl: He's clearly very tired from being up all night, and he's eager to get some sleep.

Steven: (through the phone's speaker*) There's no time to explain, just help me down!

Amethyst: How're we supposed to do that?

Pearl: Maybe we can weight him down?

You: Good Idea, everyone find as many objects as you can, the heavier the better. And don't hesitate to steal from anyone just tell them you need to borrow them for a sec.

The trio: Right

Pearl jumps up and puts a heavy jacket on Steven.

Steven: It's not enough, keep it coming!

Amethyst hands Steven a bowling ball and a giant rock.

Steven: More, more!

Garnet: bring a boat from the sea and places it on Steven.

Steven: Nnnnn, I don't think this is working.

Steven struggles to hold everything while no velocity was gained.

You, Pearl and Garnet climb aboard the boat while Amethyst, as Purple Puma, tries to weight it down.

Steven: Nothing's working, is there anything else you could put on me?

Garnet: Just this alarm clock.

Garnet pulls out the Cookie Cat alarm clock and shows it to Steven. It displays "7:26" as the current time. Steven looks at the time in disappointment.

Steven: It's past 7:00. (sighs*) Thanks for trying guys, but there's no point any more.

Amethyst: Sorry, Steven. (lets go of the boat*)
