Hey guys, back like I promised. One thing I realized is that In chapter one I referred to Blue Topaz as Aquamarine and as you know aquamarine is now a character. Blue Topaz was her original name but I changed it to aquamarine before because it's my birthstone. But oops, Rd can't figure out how to change it so let's live with this mistake. Sorry.
"Please pearl! I promise I'll be good! Plus I could help! C'mon please!" Steven said begging Pearl to let him go on this mission. "No steven! As much as I know you want to go, you can't! It's too dangerous for you and I don't want you to get hurt." Said pearl in response to Steven's pleas. "I'm sure I could help!" He said back "Garnet, back me up here." Garnet stood leaning against the wall of the shack, near the door frame. She was silent for a moment, reaching to all possible conclusions. "Steven is right, Pearl." Said garnet after a minute or two. Steven got a huge grin plastered onto his face while pearl was simply flabbergasted. "W-what?! Garnet think, this creature we're going after is... well.. Dangerous! Steven could get hurt." Said Pearl. Now it was her turn to plead. Meanwhile Steven was doing a small victory dance. Garnet put a hand on Pearls shoulder. "Yes, he may get hurt. But I know I'm the end he can help. Trust me, trust Steven." Garnet said, not letting her voice waver in any way. Pearl was still before letting out a big exasperated sigh. "Alright, if you say so." Said Pearl. "Aw yus! My man Steven going on a mission!" Amethyst said from behind him, picking him up. "Who knows, maybe we'll need a fusion." She said and winked, causing Steven to laugh and agree. "Yes!" He said laughing. "Oh no no no! I'm letting him come on the mission but you two are not fusing for no reason. Your fusion can be a bit reckless." Pearl said instantaneously. "Aww cmon P, ya never know. Plus Smoky Quartz is a legend. Not a reckless child." Retorded amethyst. "Calm down amethyst, now we better get there before it gets dark, so get the inflatable raft and let's go." Garnet said before walking away. "Ya! Let's go!" Said Steven running after her.

"Okay Steven, me, amythest and Pearl are all going to dive in and look for the creature, if you see anything contact us immediately." Said Garnet, once they we're out in the open ocean. "Don't forget to keep wearing you're life vest." Added Pearl. Amethyst rolled her eyes. "Alright gems, let's go." Said Garnet before jumping straight into the ocean, follow suit by Pearl and Amethyst. Now Steven was left alone. "Good luck guys!" he said waving them off.
Now what?
Steven was bored out of his mind in a couple minutes, the gems would be here for a while and he forgot to bring anything to entertain him. "Ugh" he said lying down on his back. "I knew I should've brought my copter-dog card set." He said sighing. Just as he was about to close his eyes he heard a rumble that seemed to be coming from under the boat. Curiosity pecked at him and he leaned over the side of the boat. Nothing was there. "That's weird." He said to no one. He was about to report what he saw.. or heard to the team when a giant splash was heard behind him. Startled he turned around and screamed "AAAAH!" A giant horrific monster was there. It let out a horrific ear screeching scream and lunged at him with its snapping jaws. Steven, horrified, rolled out of the way, but unfortunately, the boat popped as the monsters giant jaws ripped it apart, along with the claws tearing it even more. "GARNET, PEARL, AMETHYST HELP!!" He called out to the ocean. The giant monster, now finished with the boat turned to Steven. Steven now noticed, that this monster had four eyes and... A gem? On the side of its face. No wonder Pearl didn't want him on this trip. They we're dealing with a corrupted gem. Panic light up inside Steven as he tried to swim away but was no where near fast enough to get away. The monster was easily One of the biggest things he's ever encountered. The monster started swimming circles around Steven screaming at him. The gems were on they're way now, that's for sure. Steven tried to approach the corrupted gem. Putting his hands out in front of himself. At the sudden movement the creature lunged at him its jaw Wide open ready to shred him. In this moment is when Steven noticed a glinting stone on the side of this beast. Two corrupted gems? Fused together?! Oh no... Suddenly the beast shrieked. Garnet! The strong gem had punched the disgusting creature in the back, causing it to snap at her. Two arms wrapped around Steven lifting him out of the water onto a boat. Wait a boat? When he was on the boat he gasped for air. "Steven!" Pearls worried yell made him flinch. "Pearl! Where's amethyst?" He asked. "Your standing on her." Said the boat...err amethyst. "Now, stay here Steven" Pearl ordered and she dived back into the water.
Moments later of splashing, screeching and hard work. Garnet got onto boat amethyst with one cracked gem in a bubble with Pearl following suit. "Steven!" Pearl seemed to activate mother mode. "Are you okay? What happened?" She yelled panicked. "I'm fine, the gem attacked me. Where's the other gem?" He responded. Pearl said "other gem? What do you mean, there was only the one." Steven pondered. "I though I saw another gem on it..." he said. Garnet spoke up "if there is another gem we'll look for it in the morning, but let's head back to shore." She said firmly. "...Okay." Said Steven
