The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 13.

Purple Owl: He was asking about Rose. (turns her head 180°*) Look, there he is!

Greg: Yo~

The purple owl takes off of Pearl's arm, hitting Pearl in the face with her wing.

Pearl Ugh, Amethyst, wait!

The purple owl shapeshifts back into normal, realizing to be Amethyst, whose appearance very reminiscent of a toddler's.

Amethyst: It's YOU! (lands in front of Greg, scaring him*) I've never seen this one around here before... (crawls around Greg*) Aww... I really like your hair!

Amethyst crawls underneath Greg's hair and lifts up his shirt, causing him to blush. Pearl jumps over to pull Amethyst away, as Greg pulls down his shirt.

Pearl: Amethyst! Leave him be! You don't know where he's been! (turns to Greg*) I'm very sorry about this... umm... you.

The temple Warp Pad then glows and Garnet warps in, holding two bubbled gems in both hands.

Greg: Woah...

Garnet: Pearl, Amethyst. (sends the bubbled gems away*) You're with a human. (walks over*)

Amethyst: (happily*) He followed me over the fence!

Pearl: What should we do?

Garnet leans in on Greg and glares at him, reflecting his face on her visor.

Garnet: State your purpose.

Greg: (nervously*) Uhh... I was kinda looking for the mysterious pink lady. Kinda really tall... lots of big curly hair?

Amethyst: See, he's talking about Ro-mmphhh

Pearl puts her hand over Amethyst's mouth to muffle her.

Pearl: (to Garnet*) I don't know how to make him go away.

Garnet: I'll just throw him back over the fence.

Greg: Huh?

Garnet grabs Greg and lifts him over her head. Greg moans in protest as he's carried off.

Pearl: Excellent idea! Humans should stay on the other side of the fence like the sign says.

Greg: Please! No throwing!

Rose:(shouts from behind*) Wait!

The Gems turn around and see Rose, rushing out of the temple.

Rose: Mr. Universe?

Greg: gIt's you. Whoa!- Ow!

Garnet drops Greg quickly and blushes. Rose then jumps forwards, lands gracefully in front of Greg, and offers her hands to him

Rose: Are you alright?

Greg takes her hand, and the two exchange gazes at each other for a moment, until Pearl barges in.

Pearl: You know this human?!

Rose: He was playing a concert on the beach, and I couldn't help myself.

Greg: No one can ignore the Universe. Oh! (holds out the XXL T-shirt*) I brought you this. It's the free t-shirt that came with the free CD!

Rose: (takes the T-shirt*) Why, thank you!

The other Gems crowd around Rose to look at the T-shirt.

Rose: (whispers*) His gimmick is space!

Pearl chuckles at Rose's comment.

Amethyst: Hey, play something, music man!

Garnet: (summons her gauntlet*) Better make it good.

Greg: Aw man, I'm working on this awesome new set, it's gonna kill at my next show! Next show... Aw jeez, what time is it?
