It was midnight at Steven's house. Steven and Garnet just came back from their day of looking around Beach City. "WOOOOOO, that was a fun day wasn't it Garnet?" insisted Steven with a big smile on his face."Yeah."Replied Garnet while smiling back at Steven. There was a moment of awkward silence. "uh,what now?" Wondered Steven while thinking on what to do next. In a snap an idea already came to him. "Oh I know, Garnet tell me a story,pleaseeeeeee, it's been a long time since you told me one." Exclaimed Steven with little stars in his eyes. "Haha,ok,ok calm down, here sit down."Garnet replied happily. Steven sits down on his bed and Garnet sat down next to him. Garnet was thinking for a minute. "Mmmmmm, lets see, I know,Steven it's about time you know about this one… alright, throughout your whole life steven you only seen female gems, right?" Asked Garnet. "Female gems?,you mean there's guy gems too?!" hastily replied Steven. "Yep and the reason why you haven't seen one up until now is gonna be the story I'm o'bout to tell you." Announced Garnet. Steven stares at Garnet excitedly.

A long time ago, way before the Crystal Gems were formed there was both men and women gems living together. Until a war broke out between them. The women wanting to have more power than the men and the men wanting to keep the "old ways". After years of warfare, the men eventually lost, so they tried to escape. The women's leaders Blue Diamond, Yellow Diamond, and White Diamond attempted to chase them down, but was stopped by the last remaining diamond of the men,Black Diamond. Black Diamond sacrificed himself to save his few remaining people so that they can escape. Many years later right after the shattering of Pink Diamond, in Homeworld there was a special gem named Jacinth. A gem whose gender was a mistake caused by a injector that malfunctioned in a unique way. The diamonds, disgusted was about to shatter the jacinth, but instead one of the diamonds saw true potential in him. She saw skills of worthy leadership, a future tactician, a master of combat, and the one who can lead Homeworld's armies against their enemies.

Somewhere in Homeworld.

"Grand General Jacinth, the diamonds request your presence right away in the council room." Reported a pearl.

Jacinth was a young adult looking 8'6'' feet tall gem, very broad shaped, was wearing a memorial general's armor, with his gem on his right shoulder, he had a reddish orange color to him, and he was the only known male gem in Homeworld. His pearl, like most pearls, was a thin looking, pointy nosed gem, her gem was on her right cheek, and was wearing a custom dress like a diamond's pearl, fit for being the Grand General's pearl.

"Understood, Plare wait for me in my ship." Replied Jacinth.

The name Plare was given to her because Jacinth wanted to call her by a name instead of just a pearl. Jacinth now heads to the council room. Nothing out of the usual,just another meeting for the general.

*15 minutes later*

Jacinth arrives to the council room. In the room sat down was all of the council nobles line up in rows down from the lowest ranking noble,up to the diamonds with their pearls. Looking grand as always.

"My diamonds, have I been requested my appearance?'' Inquired Jacinth

"Ah, Jacinth, welcome, and yes we have. We have an important matter to tell you." Yellow Diamond Greeted.

"Is it the matter of the shattering of Pink Diamond?" Asked Jacinth.

There was a pause of sadden silence. Then a blue power wave came from Blue Diamond causing all other gems in the room to tear up. Blue Diamond covered her face and started to cry grievously.

"My Diamond, I'm sorry I should've never said that!" Apologized Jacinth.

White Diamond wiped her own tears away and said.

"Don't despair general, that just shows you care about what happen, but Blue will you?"

While Blue Diamond was crying she nodded and was swallowed up by a bluish light that teleported her away.

"Now let's cut to the chase." Blurted Yellow Diamond.

"Jacinth, I'm deeply sorry for the misfortune news I'm about to tell you, but you're getting demoted to a captain, surely you can understand." Declared Yellow Diamond.

"WHAT?! My Diamond, I must ask why have I been demoted?" Contented Jacinth.

Before Yellow Diamond can answer, one of Blue Diamond's higher ranked nobles stood up, a jadeite and snapped.

"It is because you are a filthy male!"

Jacinth turns to the noble and said.

"Give me one example why does that have to do with this… jadeite."

The jadeite barked up a reply.

"I'll give you an example you nimwit, when you put my poor diamond into tears just a moment ago! UGH, you men has always been like that, rude, insensitive , and really just unthoughtful. The reason being why they're no longer here, until you showed up."

Most of the council gems nodded in agreement. Until one of White Diamond's lower ranked nobles stood up,a tanzanite and protested against the statement.

"I disagree, believe Grand General Jacinth is a honorable gem,in the past he has shown great leadership and it has been proven ever since he has been in control, the military has been at it's best in all of gemkind history!"

"You ignorant tanzanite! He's a male, unworthy of leading us!" Raged another Noble.

A argument was started and the council room was in chaos. Then Yellow Diamond shocked everyone who was fighting with yellow lightning demanding order. "Order in the council!" Everyone stopped. Then White Diamond started.

"It is true that many gems respect you, I personally do too, but there are far too many gems that antagonize you and want you to be shattered, we simply just wanted to address the problem, consider this mercy from me, if I have never respected you, you would've been shattered without question, a much worse fate than demotion. Now, you will leave with topaz and she will show you to your new home. Hopefully you'll still serve us with the same pride like you have been doing for all these years."

"I….I understand. I will go now." Said Jacinth knowing that he has no choice.

A topaz opened the council door signaling Jacinth to come. While following topaz to his new home, gems started to stare at Jacinth, as the demotion has been broadcasted in Homeworld, they saying cruel and hurtful things.

"Oh look it's that masculine freak."

"Ha! This MAN should've been shattered."

"Look at this fool, a new poor excuse for a captain."

"Shame, too bad he's a male."

When Jacinth reached his home,he fell on the floor and started to cry.

*Jacinth's mind*(In a sobbing voice)

'I'm just a male… I knew this would happen I've even prepared for this but why does it hurt so much still? I have no home, no right, no place in Homeworld. I-I might just- no I won't, I still have a purpose. It's just not fair at all. Not fair...'
