Rebecca "Bex" Universe

By: Adazula

Story Description: Most people know the story of the only magical son to Greg and Rose Quartz. What people don't know is that they have another child twelve years before him by the name of Rebecca. A.K.A Bex. However unlike Steven, she's completely normal. But that doesn't stop her from being an important person to Steven.


Chapter One: The Normal Child.

" She's beautiful Rose." Pearl compliments the bundled up child in her mother's arms and she means it. In the past, she has had her sight of ugly children over the thousand of years she has existed here on earth. This one looks like an angel. Just like her mother.

Rose has just given birth to her daughter not too long ago in her room in the temple. Greg and Rose knew that having the baby at a hospital would not be in everyone's best interest since Rose is technically an alien. They didn't even have a midwife. They decided to do the birthing themselves with only the knowledge of birthing books and advice from many people. Luckily nothing went wrong.

The baby girl looks a lot like her mother in terms of looks. Her hair was beautifully pink. Though it was more wavy like her fathers instead of curly. The child also inherited Rose's pale skin with a rosy hue in her cheeks.

" Wow. Nine months for a little you?" Amethyst says. " I always wanted a little me."

" Well we don't." Pearl says. " That would be double the disaster."

" Yeah.." Amethyst admits.

Garnet stares down at the gurgling baby and can't help but tugs a smile to herself. She is certainly a cutie pie.

" Where's Greg by the way?" Pearl asks.

" He says he's just going to get the last of the baby stuff we need. I think he's honestly freaking out about being a dad now." Rose says as she strokes her tiny daughter's cheek gently.

" So what are we going to do now that little Rosie is here?" Pearl asks.

" She's not going to be called Rosie Pearl. Greg and I decided not to call her that. I think it will be too confusing for all three of us."

Pearl sighs. She thinks nothing but a version of Rose would be deserving to a child of Rose herself. Even if she was the child of Greg as well.

" So what is her name." Amethyst asks.

" We thought long and hard about it. We decided on Rebecca." Rose announces.

" Rebecca?" Amethyst says the name. It sounds weird to her, but if Rose wants to call her daughter Rebecca than it is Rebecca.

" What's going to happen if Rebecca develops her powers? We are we going to do when that time comes?" Pearl asks.

Rose sighs. She's trying to figure out the best way to explain the situation to her dear friends.

" What?" Pearl asks noting Rose's hesitation.

" Rebecca is… not like us. She's half human, but she isn't a gem. She doesn't have gem like us. She has a heart like Greg's"

All three of the gems look at her and the baby in dumbfound.

" She's…. human?" Pearl asks in shock. " How do we even know that's the possibility? We don't know that!"

" Pearl. Garnet. Amethyst. I didn't want to tell you this because if I told you, then you would not have supported me and Greg of having children. I didn't even tell Greg. There was a chance I would have given up my physical form forever in order to have Rebecca." She confesses.

" What?!" The gems shout.

" We don't naturally reproduce. You know that. If I was to have Rebecca as a gem baby. My gem would have past onto her and I would no longer exist as my physical could not exist without my gem. Because Rebecca is a human baby, I am able to keep my gem." Rose says.

The gems don't say anything, but they look at each other and nod in agreement of how they feel about this situation.

Pearl finally says to Rose, " Well at least we have you and this beautiful little girl. We're happy for you."

" Thank You." Rose smiles.

It was then that there heard knocking out the gem door. It must be Greg. Rose does a hand gesture and the door opens to a panting Greg.

" OK!" He pants loudly. " I got everything and I'm totally ok!"

Rose laughs in response. " Oh. Greg. You are always so funny."

" Well anything for my family." He smiles as comes over. The gems decide to leave as well to give the new family some time.

As Pearl passes Greg, she sneaks a comment to him, " Count yourself lucky."

Greg stops in confusion of what Pearl has just said to him and looks back before the temple door closes behind the gems. He decides to shrug it off and goes over to be with his beautiful family.


" Dad!" An eight year old Bex runs over to the car wash after school. " Dad!"

Greg peaks from behind the car after finishing up another job for a customer. " What it is Bex?" He asks his daughter.

She has gotten older over the years, Greg can't believe it. Right now she is at that age where she has shoulder length hair with bangs in order to keep her hair low maintenance and out of her face since she is more like a tomboy with a bit of baggy pink shirt with a yellow star and jean shorts with orange flip flops.

" Jamie was talking about his brother the other day and I want to know why I don't have brother or a sister?" She asks.

"Oh." Greg blushes. It's one of those topics that he doesn't want to have with his daughter, but he chooses the best answer he can think at the moment. He doesn't want to have to explain the situation of her mom already.

" Well…" He starts. " Mommy and I are happy with just you Bex."

" Oh. Ok." She says accepting the answer before running towards the town. " I'm heading to the temple to see Mom. See you later!"

" Look on both sides of the road!" He shouts as she dashes across the street without doing so. Luckily no cars are really there to hit her. He can't help smile as he watches her running form disappear.

She runs through town and across the coast of the the beach and to the Crystal Cave to see her mom waiting for her. " Hi Mom!"

" Hello Bex." Rose says as she greets her daughter with a hug.

" Where's Amethyst? I thought of the sweetest trick she can do." She says excitedly.

" Well… they have a mission go on today." Rose explains.

" Aw…." Bex says in disappointment. She always love hanging with the gems. They are strange, but she loves them for that and she knows they love her.

" I know." Rose says. " But luckily you and I can have quality time together."

" Sweet!" She says happily.

The mother and daughter spend the afternoon playing on the beach and talking. It wasn't extravagant, but Bex loves the fact that she gets to spend time with her mom. Even if her mom is busy with trying to protect the earth. As long as she makes time for her worth the times away from her daughter then Bex is happy with the situation.

" I wish I could go on missions with you and the gems." Bex says as the two of the sit on the beach looking at the sunset. " I want to do what you do."

" You know there is a reason why I can't take you on missions." Rose says.

" I know!" Bex scoffs. " You're protecting me from danger. I just want to do more than be a human. I feel like I'm less than you and the gems because I'm not like you.
Rose suddenly sees how much her daughter does feel like she needs to serve a purpose. She maybe human and only eight, but she isn't oblivious.

" Bex. I want to show you something. This will be our little secret." Rose says. With a wave of her hand a portal appears and a pink lion comes out.

" Whoa!" She says in surprise. She sees her mom climb onto the lion. She holds out her hand to her daughter and Bex takes it. She is suddenly put onto the lion's back and the lion runs back into the portal.

After an exhilarating ride through the portal. One of which made Bex scream in excitement. They pop out on the other side to another cave like place nearby a strange metal platform.

" What is this place?" Bex asks her mom.

" This is my weaponry. Only Pearl has been here once. I made something for you when you were a baby. It will be here for when you are old enough." Rose says as she goes onto the platform and it starts to glow pink.

Bex cautiously follows her mother and soon they are in the center where a podium raises from the floor.

She watches her Mom working the control center like podium and it was then an pink ornate box comes with her mom's symbol on it.

" Go on. Open it." Her Mom assure her daughter. Bex slowly walks over and opens the box. She gasps at what she sees.

It was a sword. No two swords. One of them longer and more broader. The other short and slimmer. The swords are designed to look like wings. They are connected by a silver chain. Making them as one weapon.

Bex gawks at the wing blades and couldn't believe they are meant for her. That her mom has made them for her.

Her mom comes over and says, " These blades act as one. Even if they are two. Understand that Bex."

" I will." She says. " When will be able to use them?"

" When you are ready. Right now is not a good time. They are weapons." She chuckles.

" So the gems don't know about this?" She asks.

" No. This is between you and I. I don't think it's a good idea to mention a human fighting fighting with us just yet. Little steps at a time." Rose advises her.

" Oh." She says but then smiles. " When I am ready to fight, can you teach me?"

" All of us will teach you." Rose says.

" Cool!" She says.

" But first things first. You must take a vow." Rose says.

" A vow?"

" You want to be a Crystal Gem, you must take a vow." Rose says. " Repeat after me: I, Bex Universe, pledge to protect the earth now and forever more. To preserve it's natural state. To never harm it in anyway and protect all living things that come from it."

" I , Bex Universe, pledge to protect the earth now and forever more. To preserve it's natural state. To never harm it in anyway and protect all living things that come from it." Bex repeats.

Rose could never be any more proud of her daughter when she says it.

She presses a button on the podium and the wing blades go back into the armory along with the platform darkening.

" Now that you are a Crystal Gem, let's go home before Dad finds out we're missing." She laughs.

Bex laughs as well as they head towards the pink lion to head home.


This is a test chapter for an idea I had that was inspired by kinda Frozen but not really. The only thing is that Bex is the normal sibling to a magical one. I thought it would be a cool idea to have. Don't know if I will continue. It depends on how many people are interested in story. Hopefully enough of you guys will support the idea because I do have so many ideas to go along with it. It might be short stories of Steven's early childhood with Bex that follows into the shows' events.

Please tell me if want to see more of this. Bye.
