Chapter: 1 The Crash

Jasper pushed the piece of wreckage off of herself and stood shakily looking at the crystal gems and growled out seeing that they were relatively unharmed. "Damn traitors, ready to get your asses kicked again?" she smirked and cracked her neck as her helmet materialized on her head. Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl held their ground Steven was behind them leaning on Lion a little winded from holding the bubble up around them threw the crash. Pearl stood in front of everyone, the only one without a scratch but her legs shook subtlety showing her fear and making Jasper grin. "We aren't afraid of you Jasper!" she shouted her voice barely keeping from shaking, "I'm going to enjoy crushing you almost as much as when I tear that fusion behind you apart!" Amethyst stood in front of Garnet who was barely able to stand from the previous fight with Jasper. Jasper smiled and started to rush towards them but when she made it mid-way she was cut off my a piece of wreckage crashing a few feet in front of her and Lapis fell down on top of it her water wings disappearing as she fell. "Lapis are.. are you ok?" Steven yelled as he started to walk closer but garnet held out her arm to stop him, "S.. Steven wh.. what happened?" she rubbed the back of her head and looked up her face fear struck seeing Jasper looming over her "oh crap" her wings started to re form as she backed away from her and jumped away only for Jasper to grab her by the ankle and pull her down to her. "Lapis here's a thought, fuse with me, we could destroy these damn rebels and go back to home world again." "Don't do it Lapis!" Steven shouted clambering over Garnets arm and running towards the sea gem with tears in his eyes as Pearl and Amethyst grabbed him and held him back, Lion walking towards the destressed boy. "I.. I'm sorry Steven" she nodded at Jasper who started to laugh wickedly and set Lapis down and stretched out her hand for Lapis to take it but before she could Steven raised up both of his hands ad formed a shield between the two gems then it grew into a bubble around Lapis and started to lift her up and pulling her towards the young boy "Steven what are you doing?!" Yelled Lapis as she was floating over to him "You little hybrid shit!" Jasper yelled and turned into her spinning ball mode and quickly rushed at the gems. "No one touches my Lapis!" Steven roared as he jumped onto Lion and rushed right at jasper whispering something into Lions ear making her roar cutting open a rift in front of them making Jasper roll right into it as she franticly turned back to normal but felt herself getting pulled into it "no no nooo Damn You Rose!" she was sucked in and the rift closed as everyone simply stared at Steven who collapsed on top of lion making his bubble around Lapis pop and sending her gliding down next to him "Steven?!" shouted the crystal gems who rushed over to the young boy as Lapis wrapped her arms around him hugging him tightly "Steven im so sorry" "mmmmm" he relaxed into her nuzzling his cheek to her chest making her blush a navy blue and carry him over to his beach house with the Crystal Gems. Amethyst giggled and hit Lapis softy on the shoulder "looks like some ones got a crush on you bluey" Lapis blushed an indigo blue now and carried him over to his bed and laid him down sitting beside him as she pulled the covers over him smiling. "thank you Steven.. you kept me free.. just like you promised" she leaned down and kissed his cheek waking him from his short respite "Lapis.. are you ok?" "yes Steven, thank you for protecting me" she smiled sweetly down at him making him blush. "well I had to jasper was going to force you to fuse with her.. and I know that that's something special for gems.. I didn't want her to take you away from me .. i.. I mean us like that" he was blushing almost as much as she was when they realized they had an audience. "Steven sorry to interrupt.. whatever that could be called but where did you send Jasper?" he gulped and rubbed the back of his head "sooo I may of kind of.. sort of… sent her to the moon" he looked at them and they all looked at him in shock, Garnet spoke up "so you sent her to the moon.. with no way off" she grinned "serves her right" said Lapis as she hugged her little hero once again. "guess that's one less gem to worry about" shrugged Amethyst and pearl rolled her eyes and walked away "surprised I agree with Amethyst here but good reddens to bad rubbish I say" as the others left to there rooms Steven and lapis were left alone blushing and sitting next to one another. "h.. hey Steven do you mind if I sleep next to you tonight?" she asked looking down at the blankets so he couldn't see her face flush from embarrassment, "Shure Lapis of course you can her lifted up his blanket and she climbed under it cuddling up to him smiling as he started to drift off again "goodnight Steven" she said smiling her eyes closed ad her head resting on his shoulder, "goodnight my sea angel" he yawned out resting her head against hers his words making her eyes open with happy tears running from them. "My lovely rose." She held him close as she drifted off to sleep alongside her little hero. A white glow surrounding her as she slept changing her blue diamond insignias into pink roses before she cuddled more into him pressing his face into her chest as they slept contently together.
