hey guys i wanted to put this chapter up ,despite probably no having much support for the story as of yet, but i just wanted to get this out to have 2 chapters up, this is mostly going to be a filler cliche "meet the cast" chapter but for some of the stuff i'm planning, its kinda needed to show the people that live in beach city. I will be using songs from eh show as well as maybe putting in my own, i still son't know also in case you didn't realize ,its all in obsidian's POV.

also whoever gets the joke in the title gets to put in an idea for a chapter

some chapter notes

sorry about the lack of amethyst in the last chapter, i will work on that

also in case your saying that Steven doesn't' have a GameCube, eh actually has a GameCube and a Nintendo 64 ,

this is not really set at any distinct time, just say it happens after "sworn to the sword" which will explain why Connie knows how to sword fight , and in the title sequence she has the sword so HA!

also the song sung in this chapter was the pilot version of the theme song

on with the chapter!

THE TEMPLE

as the warp pad shimmered we stepped into some sort of house , "where are we?" i ask to which Steven replied "this is the temple, its where em and the other gems live " Steven replies" isn't it awesome!?" He asks, and oh crap he has the starry eye look again. Before i could say anything pearl interrupted , " well before any of that we need to check the mountain for that gem, Steven you stay with obsidian and make sure he doesn't do anything, violent " which gave him an idea " hey obi i can show you around beach city!" "obi?" i ask to which amethyst started laughing " HEY OBI WAN KENOBI , AHAHAHAHAHAH" "whatever" i mutter and walk off, " well lets check out beach city"

i open the door leading outside, starring out into the beach , "haven't seen this view in years" i think when Steven runs out with a guitar " oh yeah obi, there's gonna be a big concert today and anyone can perform, wanna come?" Steven looks at me holding out his hand "you know what ,why not i'm up for a song " i say and and grab his hand, throwing him up, in the air.

BEACH CITY

"STEVEN" a young girls voice called, i turn around and see a young girl about Steven's age with a sunhat and glasses, and a blue dress the shade of the sea, and she was carrying a sword. "Connie!" Steven ran up to her and they hugged, "i heard you screaming , and then i saw you up in the air and then and then" she started muttering to which Steven replied" No no its ok" .

They were off int there own little conversation for about a minute until i interrupted " so Steven you gonna introduce me to your gf over here?" i ask and Steven blushes "this is Connie, my friend , and just my friend , Connie this is obsidian ,hes a super cool gem which can have like 5 bazillion weapons" Steven said to which Connie looked amazed " YOUR A GEM! , where is it?" i showed her my shoulder gem and then i asked

" hey Connie ,how come you have a sword?" she swings the blade with a few quick motions and says "pearl taught me" , "hmm interesting," i note doing the holding chin head nod motion "sorry Connie i can't hang out right now, i gotta show obi around beach city"

after he says that i slap him on the back playfully "can you stop calling me that and besides i'm all for some extra company , why can't she come?" Steven looks up and says "YEAH LETS GO!"

we start running around the beach until we a doughnut store with the words "big doughnut" on the front we enters the store and see two teenagers having an argument over something about payer 2 "oh get a room you two " i snicker when Steven runs up and asks for the usual plus 1 and gets 3 donuts and runs up to me and says "what did you mean about getting a room?" i kinda blush and say "its complicated, are they dating?" Steven opens his mouth but Connie says " no they're not" "oh well i ship it" i remark before Steven starts running again and we chase him , we see most of the faces of beach city, the " cool kids" , the fryman family and this neat little arcade where i helped Steven at some meat dance game,

finally we come to a car wash where seven runs up and hugs a man yelling "DAD!" "oh then that means, she moved on" i think before heading up to meet my replacement "hello sir" i say before putting out my hand "wow so formal , i'm Greg and you are?" he says before shaking my hand "i'm obsidian , oh and by the way i'm roses ex" he takes a step back "oh, no hard feelings , right?" ,i shrug " for now" mocking anger . "oh is it okay if i play with Steven at this concert? " Greg looked up for a little bit, "yeah , i'm cool with it i'll be there so i guess why not" great and Steven can you show me your gem" Steven lifts up his shirt and shows me his gem , to which i place my hand on it and pull out "hey obi what was that all about?" Greg asks " oh god you too?" i mutter and then say "i just essentially placed myself into all of Steven memories and essentially learned his favorite songs and i know just the song to sing" i smile and summon my other 'weapon' a guitar and begin to play one of the random songs form Steven memory.

If you're evil and you're on the rise

You can count on the four of us taking you down

Cause we're good and evil never beats us

We'll win the fight and then go out for pizzas

We are the Crystal Gems

We'll always save the day

And if you think we can't

We'll always find a way

That's why the people of this world believe in

Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl and Steven!

while i'm singing, Steven and Connie began to dance then suddenly they fused into 1 being . " you two can fuse?!" i ask , "yeah , this is stevonni" the fusion bows down then starts laughing,

"unfuse" i say " wait what?" the fusion asks "UNFUSE NOW!" i scream and pull out my staff , the two unfuse and look at me, and Steven asks "obi , whats wrong?" Steven asks, concerned i look at him and just say "i don't want to talk about it" Steven just nodded at that and let me be .

After about 5 minutes Greg sat down next to me on the beach and said "you alright man?" i looked at him and said " i could be better , but i have an a question" Greg looks at me quizzically and asks "what is it?" , i look up and chuckle "why is that kid so god damn nice?" Greg laughed at that and then says "he's his mother in every way, caring , loyal , fun-loving, and a real good friend, " he responds and then we hear a scream and Steven yelling "CONNIE!"

i got up and said to Greg "stay here" and i ran to Steven , who was looking up to some sort of creature ,

the thing was about 25 ft long and 10 feet wide, it had 6 winglike appendages, with a long gem along its center wingspan and had a set of talons , and was holding Connie and heading into ocean

"Steven, can you help me out here and." i started but here interrupted and said " fine i'll wait here" i laughed a little and said ,"no i need you to use your shield, i'll attack it and lure it to you, then you ram it with your shield, got it? " Steven nodded and summoned his shield muttering about his "jam buddy"

lets do this , i thought and jump up and get out my staff SCHWISHH my staff hits the beast square in the face and it screams and thrashes me off , as i'm falling my staff grows as i reach toward Connie , she understands what i'm doing and i collapse the staff on itself taking Connie with it , Connie falls into me , and we fall , "are you ok? " i ask "Connie pats herself down and says "yeah" , i nod and see the beast charging toward us , i nod at steven and he gets himself ready and runs slamming his shield straight into the monsters head , stunning it , getting my staff prepared i jump up and slam my entire body into the gem of the monster , with a loud poof , he disintegrates and all that's left is a long orange gem "nice job team" i say and Steven walks to the gem and puts it in a bubble and it disappears, "cool trick , now lets get to the temple before the gems question us" i say and we head up the beach and to the temple

as the gems return to the temple we are in the middle of a game MarioKart on stevens gamecube and amethyst asks "anything cool with you guys" we look at each other and i say " nope ,i got to meet some of steven's friends otherwise it was a normal day on beach city" amyhtest shrugged and said "whatevs" only garnet seemed slightly suspicious , she looked at us , with all three eyes, and walked into her room of the temple. Steven and i give each other a sideways glance and start to laugh its good to be back , i think to myself .
