Top of the day to you readers, my name is JACK-SEPTIC-EYE and here's another chapter of The Truth, I was thinking of making it a short one chapter story but since you guys want more, so I'll give you what you want. Please review.

Steven had just left Beachcity, for a place to find comfort and trust because he had misplaced his comfort in Pearl. Steven and Lion travelled far and wide, from jungles to deserts to forest and Steven was getting tired of run from one place to another, Steven finally gets to an empty space in a forest, and decides to set camp there.

"Hey Lion, are you hungry?" Steven asked just getting a small roar from Lion.

"Okay, here's some lion lickers" Steven said feeding Lion the snack, but then there is a snap that came from the bushes.

"Who's there?!" Steven said summoning his shield to protect himself, then a big bulky form steps into the light, she had long white unruly hair, orange skin with some darker orange marks on her arms and face, and she wore a sleeveless tight jump suit that had a yellow diamond in the middle of the outfit, plus her gem replaced her nose, it was Jasper.

"Oh it's just you Jasper, well I don't have time for you right now, so please just disappear" Steven said dispelling his shield, ignoring her and getting back to watch his fire burning.

"You little brat, don't you have respect?" Jasper shouted angrily.

"Like your even worthy of my respect" Steven said still ignoring her.

"How dare you, don't ignore me" Jasper said getting more angry and clenching her fists.

"You sound like that long nosed bird faced idiot, what's her name again, Pearl yes Pearl, such a useless name for a useless gem" Steven said surprising Jasper, because from her point of view she always knew that Steven liked Pearl and he was always cared for her, but now he was just acting like Pearl was a bad thing.

"Brat, you're not yourself, what happened?" Jasper asked calming herself down.

"My name is Steven and I am myself" Steven responded.

"Okay Steven, what really happened because you always liked Pearl but now you're just acting like she's a bad thing" Jasper said sitting beside Steven, there was a moment of silence then Steven finally spoke up.

"Have you ever thought of the people that you think that care about you, but just care about what is best for themselves?" Steven said placing his hand over the fire, then retracting his hand back.

"No, not really" Jasper responded.

"Pearl is just a bad dream to me right now, she just told me something that I couldn't take, so I just ran away" Steven said.

"What could that little weakling say that could you make you run away from home?" Jasper asked.

"She called me 'a mistake', she wished I was dead" Steven said with a tear roll down his face.

"You can see what I told you, they don't care about you, they just care about themselves and what's best for them" Jasper influenced seeing doors of opportunity had opened up to her.

"I guess you were right, they don't care about me, they care about themselves and they all deserves to die" Steven said stretching his hand and withdrawing smoke from the fire.

"Yes, they all deserve death, and it is better served at the hands of the one they once protected" Jasper said with an evil smile.

"I have to go now and do what I have set as a goal" Steven said standing up.

"You can't go now, you're not fully trained and equipped" Jasper informed and that was the truth, Steven would be beaten at the fact that he had dirty clothes, scars and wounds on his body from being attacked by wild animals, and he would have been dead if it wasn't for Lion.

"Then what do you suppose I do?" Steven asked looking at Jasper for a response.

"I can't believe I'm doing this, but I will train you to become the ultimate fighting gem warrior" Jasper offered standing up, though she was like 'This brat is going to get himself killed'.

"I accept" Steven responded.

"Good, now follow me" Jasper said leading Steven to her ship, leaving Lion behind, but Lion ran back to Beachcity to inform the Crystal Gems.

Oh My Gem, Steven has found Jasper and he has begun training with her, what will happen to the Crystal Gems when they find out, will Lion inform them on time. Tune in for the next chapter coming soon, Jack out.
