The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 12

You: Steven, But why?

Steven: I need you y/n to help pearl feel better. You did the same to amethyst, and i need you to do it to pearl. Please...

Steven looks at you with a sad and worrying eyes, and you felt guilty for questioning him. Steven keeps begging you to come with him and you finally agree. Pearl really loose someone that is special to her. And you felt the same with y/f. Now, it's time to be there for her because you know what it felt like when you loose someone that is dear to your heart.
You now grab your sword and ready yourself

You: Okay steven. I'm ready.

Steven: Alright, (turns to Lion*) lion. Do you know where she went?

Lion growls in response at steven's question.

Steven: I'm going to assume that means you do. (hops on Lion's back*)
Come on y/n, Let's go find Pearl!

You now hop at the lion's back and you are in the behind of steven, preparing to rescue pearl from her own misery. Lion now opens a portal with his magical roar and jumps in with you and steven.

Garnet: Good luck.

At the Gem Battlefield, Night time*

You, Steven and Lion arrive at the Gem Battlefield and spot Pearl standing alone, embracing Rose's sword.

Steven: Pearl?

Pearl: (quickly runs off*) Leave me alone!

You: (gasp*) Steven, come on...

You, Steven and Lion begins chasing after her, catching up to her with Lion's portals.

Steven: Wait for us!

Pearl runs in a different direction and jumps off a cliff onto floating chunks of earth.

Pearl: Get that thing away from me!

You and Steven gets off Lion.

Steven: You better sit this one out, y/n and Lion.

You: But, Steven i can do it. I can jump very far. If anyone should be worried. It should be me, if you can jump very far to reach that other rock?!

Steven: Y/N, i have done this before and that is why i can do it now. Y/N im not forcing you to sit this one out. But are you sure you can do it?

You: (chuckles a bit*) Steven, don't ever underestimate...

Steven is now getting worried at you that you might accidentally fall, but you've been worse during your days as an assassin. For you this is just a little work out, but you need to keep it slow. If steven notices that you are good at this things, he could tell this to the crystal gems and be suspecious about you.

You: Here I'll go first.

You now jump and land perfectly at the chunk of earth.

You: See...

Steven now gets excited and starts jumping across the chunk of earth too.

You: Come on steven, let's go and find pearl...

Steven: Okay, So uh. Me and y/n I've had a talk with Lion, he's gonna, uh, chill out here, uh, we're alone now, nice and private.

Pearl ignores Steven continues to jump higher, while Steven struggles to catch up. You on the other hand are catching up on pearl and slowly getting near her.

Pearl: Y/N WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING HERE?!GET AWAY FROM HERE!! IT'S DANGEROUS!!

You: Pearl, I just wanna help you! I know you miss steven's mom and she is very important to you and to the crystal gems as well. And I know we can't bring her back or do something about it, but please just let steven help you...
