Stevonnie Kills Everyone

Author's note: Steven and Connie are about 18 and 17

It was just another day in Beach City. Greg had just finished making breakfast, when Steven and Connie came in.

"What were you two doing outside so early in the morning?" Greg asked.

"Uhh… nothing we were just watching the sunrise" Steven replied.

Greg was a bit surprised but glad. "Well breakfast is ready if you're hungry"

"Thanks" Steven and Connie said. They then proceeded to eat breakfast with Greg and Amethyst.

But then Pearl came in through the warp pad. "Guys, we have another mission."

Amethyst gulped down all her food at once and ran towards the warp pad with Garnet. Steven and Connie had just started eating so Pearl told them they could stay. It didn't take long for Steven and Connie to finish eating.

Greg opened the door and said "I'm gonna head over to the car wash and get it started for today.
"Can we come with you? I've always wanted to learn how it works." Steven asked.

Greg was surprised again "Sure!" They then all went to the car wash. When they got there, a few cars had just arrived to get cleaned. Greg, Steven, and Connie quickly went inside.

"So you press this button first, to turn on the lights, then this button" Greg began explain how the wash works to Steven and Connie. After listening to Greg teach them, Steven and Connie went to a different room in the in the Car Wash while Greg was busy helping the customers. They looked around until they found a few toolboxes. They took one, went out the back door and walked back to Steven's house.

When they got there, Steven checked to see if the gems had returned from their mission yet. "We're clear Connie."

Connie came in with the toolbox and followed Steven. The two of them went into the basement. The basement wasn't too small. It was big enough that Steven and Connie could walk around in and had a few other boxes and of random items they had hidden in there. Steven turned on the light and made sure the basement door was fully closed so nobody could hear them. Steven then opened a much bigger box.

"All right here's the suit. We just need to finish the jet pack and we're done". After an hour of work, the suit was finished. Connie grabbed a box she'd hidden in the corner.

"What's in there" Steven asked.

"It's a pistol I call the "Ace of Spades". Connie said. "I saw it in a video game somewhere"

"All right now we just need to set up all the bombs to put around the house" Steven said. Just then they heard Garnet Amethyst and Pearl return from their mission. Steven and Connie quickly got out of the basement and went up stairs so the gems wouldn't notice anything.
Pearl saw them and said "How was everything while we were gone?"

"Good, just another normal day". Steven replied.

"Great. Have Peridot and Lapis returned yet?"

Connie looked out the window "No we haven't seen any sign of them today. But I do see Greg."
Greg came inside and said "So are you all ready to start game night?"

"Yes!" Steven and Connie both replied excitedly.

"All right then I'll go get the games while you guys set up the extra table". Greg said as he went to the game closet. Then they heard Peridot and Lapis arrive.

Greg saw them and said "Hey we're about to start a game of Risk. Want to join?"

"What's Risk?" asked Peridot

"It's a war game. You goal is to conquer the world." Greg began to explain to everyone how the game worked. Peridot, Lapis, Greg, Amethst, Pearl, Steven, Connie, and Garnet all went to the extended table. There were 7 people but the game was only meant for 6. Steven and Connie fused into Stevonnie so there were only 6 people and everyone could play. Everyone chose their teams and the game began.

Greg and Garnet got off to a great start. Taking out Lapis first.

Several times Pearl pointed out how some of the continents were not the correct size. "Australia shouldn't be that close to Asia. Iceland isn't that big. They made the U.S. too small."

Peridot was close to losing and asked: "why can't I use any real weapons? This isn't war"

Stevonnie replied "It's just a game. It's not meant to be taken literally."

Garnet took out Amethyst. "Ehh I'll go eat something while you guys finish." Amethyst said.

Stevonnie finally got Peridot. "Oh clod!" Peridot said as she lost.

Greg beat Pearl as she complained about the odds of winning and losing.

Greg's armies were cornered in Australia until he used his cards to get more armies and beat Stevonnie. Eventually Garnet won. She'd been using her future vision to predict everyone's moves. It was getting late so they cleaned up the games. Greg said he was going to sleep soon and told Steven that he should walk Connie home.

"Can I stay at Connie's house tonight?" Steven asked

"If Ms. Maheswaran is okay with it then yes" Greg replied

Steven began packing what he needed into his backpack. When everyone had left the room, Steven and Connie went back to the basement. They filled Connie's backpack with bombs they had recently made. They were going to set them around the town. They'd been using Peridots tools and technology to make the bombs much more powerful. When they arrived at Connie's house, Ms. Maheswaran was okay with Steven staying the night.

That night while everyone was asleep Steven and Connie began making plans for the bombs.

"We'll set one here, behind the Big Donut." Steven said.

"And another under one of the games at the Arcade" Connie said.

Together they mapped out where they were going to set the bombs and packed up everything for tomorrow.
