A/N: Hello, new and returning readers! I would like to welcome you to my latest brain child, There's Two Sides To Every Gem! My name is Xeraphan, and you are now a Seraphim, one of the mightiest forces on this website! Now, as with my RWBY Fanfiction, this will not strictly follow the plot. If I deviate from a favorite plot point of yours, suck it up and deal with it. I do not own the rights to Steven Universe, or any of the characters that AREN'T my OCs. That right goes to the Crewniverse, Rebecca Sugar, and Cartoon Network.

With all the legal stuff out of the way, let's get to the fun part: READING!

'These human types are weaklings, even WITH the help of those traitorous Gems. They can't even operate a Prismatic Photon Cannon properly! This was far too easy of a mission.' thought the Homeworld Gem, already smug in her presumably assured victory.

Her vessel, a Red Eye Gem Scouting Robot, had been under consistently harmless assault from an Amethyst and a Gem she had never seen before. However, she performed her duty, and informed Peridot Facet-2F5L Cut-5XG of the remnant Crystal Gem forces on Earth. However, (and 5XG was not pleased about this), she had not seen or picked up the signature of the leader of the Gems, Rose Quartz.

This struck her as odd, and while she was distracted, those pesky Gems had gathered a Prismatic Photon Cannon. Fortunately for her, they were stupid and didn't know how to operate it.

That was what she thought initially, before she heard the sounds of a beam charging, and saw the cannon was active. She could only manage to utter one phrase before her ship was blown to bits, and her physical form was obliterated.

"Oh shit!"

"Bullseye! We nailed that sucker!" Amethyst cheered, jumping up and down. Pearl was relieved, and Garnet was her usual stoic self.

Steven was excited. He had finally helped the Gems win a fight! And it was his dad's silly little cheer up phrase that had done it. "If every porkchop were perfect, we wouldn't have won… Thanks, Mom.." He murmured as he laid a hand over his belly.

He looked back into the sky to find something shiny flying toward them really fast. "Uh, guys? What's that coming toward us?" He asked, pointing the Gems to the UFO.

Garnet grabbed Steven by the waist, and jumped him away to safety while Amethyst and Pearl summoned up their weapons. "Stay here, Steven. It's going to get dangerous soon."

After a few minutes of clashing weapons, Steven looked from behind the corner of the Big Donut to see Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl exhausted, and a fourth Gemstone in the sand. He watched as Pearl bubbled the Gem, and Steven could see the Gemstone better now.

It was rectangular in shape, and had two different colors on either side of the Gem. It was a weird Gem, for sure. But, then again… Everything in Steven's life was weird. However, if he had a choice, he doubted very much that he would choose to be normal. He WAS a member of the Crystal Gems, after all, even if he is still in training.

"I can't believe I lost!" I shouted into the void. "I lost to those filthy traitors! Homeworld is going to have my gem for this, if I can even escape this prison…" I tried to reform my body, but to no avail, AGAIN.

I sighed, and curled my consciousness into a ball. There's no chance of me getting out, so I may as well just disappear from this world, from this life.

OOooooorrrrrrrr maybe not. I uncurled my body and- Wait, BODY?! I jumped up from the floor, and summoned up my weapon. Sadly, I didn't get a chance to use it because the Amethyst wrapped her whip around me, restricting my arms and legs. "Why did you idiots release me? It would be easier to just shatter me and be done with it." I said, with some confusion. We were always told that the Crystal Gems were heartless monsters who shattered all of their opponents, no matter who they were. They had no respect for the Diamond Authority, and no respect for Homeworld.

The Pearl, of all Gems, looked down on ME, an Ametrine! I was appalled, and I felt my anger building.

"Against my advice, we've decided that we need to interrogate you. However, keep in mind that we will destroy your body if you resist or fight us." The Pearl said, like she had any authority

A Pearl speaking with impunity, acting as if she has control over the other, higher Gems in her presence. She should be bowing to us, not tossing around threats! I was livid, and fought to break free of the whip.

Turns out the Pearl wasn't lying. I was destroyed again, and allowed to reform once more, being trapped by the whip again. "Fine, but I won't speak to a lowly Gem like you. Acting like you run the place, like you own it. Have your masters not trained you better?"

The strange Gem slapped me, hard. "Do NOT speak to her like that. She has no Master, and you have no authority here. Now, answer our questions, and we may not hurt you further."

I scoffed. "Like I'm going to believe you. I've heard the stories. Ruthless Gem shatterers, with no remorse or mercy. Well, I'm not going to answer your questions. Better to die without having divulged any secrets."

She smiled, and I felt a chill go down my spine. "Let's see how long you can last, Ametrine. Sooner or later, you'll talk." The three Crystal Clods, to steal 5XG's favorite phrase, walked away from me, just leaving me in a room, tied up.

I took a moment to look at my surroundings, and began to question a lot. There were dozens of bubbles floating around, with Gems inside. None of them were shattered shards, either. Had Homeworld been lying this whole time? 'No,' I thought, 'They would never deceive us. We do far too much for the Diamonds for them to lie so willingly to us…'

Right?
