umi ryuzzaki1 -it was awesome! I hope to get to see more of her like that but it's just the best way to see her and I wonder what blue and yellow do when they find out what happened

Ok, I don't know which 'her' your talking about, but Yeah, this over protective version of White diamond is cool, because I mean it's taking an already naturally creepy lady and channeling that into something good!
As for Alex, she is innocent, this is the best way to see her, as a child.

Demon Elsa -oh oh oh the diamonds would have destroyed them
that was a really cool move in the story cant wait for more!

Of course they would have, but what's cooler; Blue and Yellow showing up after the fact and giving Clairie something she wouldn't forget
OR
White appearing out of Alex's gem and giving a total buttkicking threat that sent chills up my spine when I was proofreading it.

Thank you all for the following and favoriting!

Chapter 12: a simple request


Over breakfast Friday morning just a week after, Alex asked Yellow Diamond a simple request, who had been supervising her lunch preparation.

"Sunshine?"

The golden gem hummed, nodding her head in acknowledgment.

"You remember those kids I told you about? Opal, Rubin, and Saffron?"

"Yes."

"Can they come over for a slumber party? Please?"

Yellow turned from the counter where her pearl had been finishing up the child's lunch, and looked to the girl with a skeptical arched brow. "And just what is a 'slumber party'?"

"Opal says that its... it's like a party where your friends come over and you get to spend the night together. She has a lot at the twins' house because her mommy works overseas and because her daddy sometimes has to work overnight. And there's pillow fights, and yummy snacks, and movies! Oh and you get to stay up later if it's on weekend!" Alexandria chirped, finishing her bowl of cereal. The amber gem hummed, she didn't like the idea of it, but the girl had been exceptionally good as of late, and was eager to do her schoolwork.

"I'll think about it and talk to Blue about it."

Silver eyes sparkled, and black painted lips let out a high pitched squeal that cracked a few of the glass cups and plates in the dish pan.

Alex got up and ran over to Yellow and hugged her leg tightly, repeating: "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

"I said I'll talk with her about it and that I'll think about it" Yellow said, shaking her head at the girls enthusiasm. "And Connie will be taking you to school today. So, I'd get ready so, your not late."

Alex stopped her enthusiastic assault, looking down at her clothing, or more correctly, her pajama's. She looked to the wall where a large clock hung, tick, tick, ticking away the moments. Grabbing her bowl from the table, she tossed it to the sink, and ran through the halls up towards her room.

Yellow chuckled, shaking her head, she would talk to Blue about it, but maybe, just maybe she would say yes. She the ordered her pearl to add a diamond communicator to the girl's lunch bag.


Alex had ran up to her room, and quickly changed into her outfit for the day, a White turtle neck with lacey silver sleeves, that were beaded with white, yellow, blue, and pink beads around the sleeves, black leggings, and her normal silver sandals.

She double and triple checked her backpack as she ran down the winding halls, towards the door, shouting her goodbye's to Blue and Yellow, as Yellow pearl met her at the door with her lunch bag.

Dashing out the door, where Connie was waiting for her. The girl ran down the boardwalk, not even bothering to greet the young woman as she jumped into the back seat of her car, quickly buckling herself in, and telling the dark haired woman: "Let's go!"

A stunned Connie shook her head, and got into the drivers seat and taking off down the roads of beach city.


Alexandria almost didn't wait for the car to stop before she jumped out, running to the door.

"Blue'll pick you up later! Have a good day Alex!" Connie hollered out her rolled down window before the gem child disappeared from sight.

The little girl had just barely made it to her class room in time, and had to hide her lunch on her lap as she had sat down.

Ms. Buttomes's hard grey eyes scanned the class room, and then the clip board on her desk. The prim woman pursed her lips and began reading off the names of each student; the student calling out when their name was said.


Alex found it hard to focus on the numbers and how to spell them on the black board, as the impeding thought of weather Blue and Yellow would allow her to invite her friends over that evening.

From her seat near the back of the room, she could see Rubin's red fire-man backpack and how bulky it was, she could only assume that, that meant his parents had allowed him and Saffron to come over.

Opal noticed her best friend's antsyness and did her best to write: 'we can, u ok?' without looking away from the black board too long. The platinum haired girl fidgeted further, she didn't even know if it would be ok for them to come over, her heart pounding in her ears making focusing almost impossible, and the lunch bag on her lap felt like an anvil crushing the black clad limbs.

Then, from her lap, a beautiful chiming sound emitted, drawing the attention of everyone in the room. The young empress looked like a deer caught in the headlights, her blood freezing. With trembling clammy hands, she opened her custom lunch bag and saw the golden diamond prism glittering and chiming Yellow's diamond chime.

Her already pale skin turned milky white, and silver eyes shrunk like pinpricks as it continued to chime in her hands, a bead of glistening sweat dancing down her brow.

"Do, you need a moment, Ms. Alexandria?" Ms. Buttomes asked crisply, glaring at the child. Alex swallowed the hard lump in her throat, and nodded, eyes glued to the crystal item clasped in her palms. "Well, whatever it is, it can wait until lunch."

The girl placed the prism under the table and twisted it halfway, and carefully typed her message to the golden gem who had been asking her presence. "Can't talk now, in class, will get back to you over lunch, promise." With that typed, she twisted it back to its original position.


When the lunch bell rang, Alex scrambled to get up and out of the room making sure to stay well hidden amongst her class mates.

The Diamond line in her lunch bag still felt warm, and her heart still pounded, hoping and praying to the stars that Ms. Buttomes would not ask her about the gemtech device.

When the door was opened, she followed the rest of her group to the cafeteria, sitting next to her friends, wishing to cower away from the judging glares of her piers.

"So, what was the gem thingy?" Opal asked, leaning over her friend's shoulder.

Alex clutched the diamond communicator tightly, and twisted it to call Yellow back with a smaller screen than normal. "It's called a Diamond line, kinda like a phone sort of." She muttered amongst the chatter of lunch hour.

With a beautiful chiming tone, two figures came into view; Yellow and Blue.

"Alexandria." Yellow said crisply, nodding her head out of respect.

"Hello Alex." Blue smiled gently, waving softly to the girl on the other end of the screen.

Alex could barely utter a greeting before Opal, Rubin and Saffron had made themselves known, waving wildly to the remaining pure Diamonds. Yellow straightened, and her harsh amber eyes she regarded each child carefully, noting Rubin's bright brown eyes, Saffron's soft blue eyes that glittered in the golden and blue light.

"My apologies for calling during class, but I believe you would find my news delightful." Yellow said, folding her hands in front of herself as she remained stoic upon her throne of gold.

"I mean, it's ok, I didn't get in trouble-"

"She just got the major stink eye from EVERYONE in the room except us!" Opal chirped, drawing down her eye lid as she cut off the young Diamond, her attitude eager and bubbly.

"So, what's the good news?" The platinum blonde questioned, eager eyes regarding both Diamonds before her.

"Well, Yellow talked to me about your request, and I believe that it would be interesting to meet your friends personally." Blue spoke, her own eyes of the ocean regarding each child, from the highest hair on their heads to the bottom of their shoes.

"Both Blue and I believe it's fine for your friends to have this 'slumber party'." Yellow said with a pause. "But, I don't want any of you to act like wild animals while your here, which means; no pillow fights."

The four children looked to each other, looked to the screen, then back to each other. A chorus of laugher and cheers of delight emitted from each child.


So, Yellow said yes! Yeah!

But how will the Diamonds react to meeting this small group of our Alex's friends?

How will the kids react to the Diamonds?

My, my, I wonder what will happen in the next chapter?

Review your guesses, because who knows? You might just guess what'll happen next ;)
