The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 19.

Jenny: Okay, ready! 3, 2...

Jenny takes more pictures of Steven in the pod, when he accidentally activates it.

You: Om my god!!

Sour Cream: Dude!

Jenny: Oh my gosh, Steven! Whaaaaaa. This is so cool!

Steven: (starts controlling the pod*) Whooooaaaaaaa

The pod climbs out of the crater and tumbles on its head. It then begins spinning around with Steven inside, as the cool kids climb out too.

Jenny: Steven, how are you doing that?

Steven: (rustling inside the pod*) I think it listens to what my hands do. I really shouldn't be playing with this. I have to take this back to the Temple immediately.

Jenny: No way, you just got it working!

Buck: C'mon, aren't you your own mom? You can do whatever you want.

Sour Cream: Yeah, you gotta do some donuts in that thing!

Buck: At least a dozen, baker's dozen.

Jenny: You should have fun with us y/n. After all, all you did to us on this trip ia to miss all of the fun.

You: I don't know jenny, it's just that i have so many to think right about now.

Jenny: Seriously, y/n, you've been under a lot of pressure. Don't you think you deserve to have a little fun?

You think for a sec. You and Steven now proceeds to have some fun inside the pod with the cool kid: Giving them a ride, racing with Jenny's car, crop grattiti, dancing etc.

Jenny: Steven, You really got the hang of that thing, huh?

You: Yeah, i know.

Steven:(laughs*) Yeah, it always hooks to the left. I should really get it back to the gems though.

You and the Cool Kids : Nooo...

Steven:...Right after I jump that haystack!

You and the Cool Kids: Yeah, do it! Go, Steven! Yeah, whoo! (laugh*)

Steven (jumps over the haystack and tumbles*) I'm okay! (giggles*) It's not actually so bad if you give it a little-

Steven nudges the dented ceiling of the pod, and it closes up. The inside of the pod begins to light up.

Steven: Aah!

The pod then begins levitating off the ground.

You: Steven?

A shockwave emits from the pod, knocking the cool kids backwards.

Steven: Guys?

Green transparent goo begins filling up the pod. Steven holds his breath, thinking he cannot breath inside the goo, but exhales shortly, discovers he can breathe normally. The pod starts shooting lasers and its arsenal everywhere. The jerk causes Steven to accidentally activate a panel, sending out a flare. The cool kids run everywhere and scream, trying to escape from the pod's barrage. You meanwhile are dodging it with many many backflips,sideflips etc. The cool kids look at you, as they see you as some sort of paid action star.

Jenny : Steven! What's going on?

Steven: Guys! Can you hear me? (gasps*)

You: Don't worry steven I'll gah!!--

You were just about to save steven But suddenly the crystal gems then emerge from the smoke, caused by the laser barrage.

Pearl: I knew it! That flare led us right to the escape pod!

Amethyst: What's going on here?!

Cool Kids : Help! Over here!

Steven: Garnet! Amethyst! Pearl!

Pearl: We'll save you, humans! (hurls her spear through the pod, barely missing Steven inside*) I can't believe it. Peridot's still inside.

Garnet : She's probably weak from the landing. Don't hold back!

Amethyst' Got it!

You: (gasp*) WHAT?!?! NOO!!

Pearl throws another spear through the pod, while Amethyst grabs it with her whip.

Cool Kids :Wait! No!

Steven: Whoa!

Garnet : You got a lotta nerve taking refuge here. Of all places! (grabs the whip and starts pulling the pod down*)

Steven: Garnet?

Garnet : But I don't know where you get off attacking defenseless humans in your dead-beat escape pod. (continues to pull it down*)

Steven: Garnet! It's me, Steven, can you hear me? Garnet!

Garnet : And if you think you're safe here, well I got news for you. You lost! Now! (summons her gauntlets and prepares to punch the pod*)

Steven: Garnet, Garnet, Garnet!

Garnet : Stay off my planet! (throws her fist at the pod*)

You: (steps in front of Garnet's gauntlet*) Stop!

Garnet halts immediately.

You: Garnet!! Steven's in there.

Garnet then notices Steven inside and breaks the pod open, releasing him.

Amethyst & Pearl: Y/n and Steven!

Amethyst: What were you two doing?

Pearl: You two found Peridot's escape pod and didn't come get us immediately!?

Amethyst: Dude, we almost wrecked you. Especially you y/n.

Garnet: Y/N and Steven, this is unacceptable. I'm very disappointed to the both of you.

Steven: (sighs*) You're right... I should have just listen to y/n instead.

You: (nodded*) Yeah, sorry guys.

The Cool Kids run up in front of you and Steven
.
Jenny: Hey, cut them some slack!

Buck: It's not their fault!

Sour Cream: Just let him be a deejay!

You and pearl: ...Wha?

Sour Cream: We just wanted Steven and y/n to have some fun. I don't know what's going on with aliens trying to abduct them, or steven being his own mom And y/n having the worst parents of all time. But it sounds like the two of them got a lot on their mind.

Jenny: I'm sure whatever you're having them do is important, but everyone needs a break once in a while.

Buck: Steven is just a kid. And even though y/n is a teenager just like us, he still needs time for himself or at least a break .

Pearl: (sighs*) Maybe we have been a little hard on them.

Amethyst: The two of them did just break us out of space jail.

Garnet: (sternly*) Steven! (smiles*) You're ungrounded from TV.

Steven, astonished, smiles and runs up to Garnet to hug her. Jenny then takes another series of selfies with you, the cool kids and the Crystal Gems. Sour Cream then  throws another rock at the wrecked escape pod, shouting "I'm invincible!" while you are chuckling, with a sticker reading "Earth Forever!".
