Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Water Angel and Commander. Enjoy the 800-word story. I don't own Steven Universe, Cartoon Network and Rebecca Sugar do.
(Solar Eclipse, During Barnmates.)
Cordierite sat in the command chair, crossing his arms, he had wanted to help Lapis fit into Earth more, but he hadn't the chance, he had to speak with the officers under his command.
And unlike the other officers who knew who Lapis and cared about her, they hadn't known who she was, and they didn't seem to care.
"Hessonite…. What are you doing on my bridge?"
Cordierite grunted out as he turned around to look at the commander, he looked her right in the eye.
"I have come to see you… We haven't talked to Blue Diamond yet…. This is so… Out of protocol…"
Cordierite heard from the Commander Gem and he was annoyed to say the least.
"This is my ship, Hessonite… I will deal with things the way I desire… If you don't like it, you can deal with another of my officers…"
Cordierite said as he turned to look at her, he crossed his arms under his armor, he didn't like dealing with Gems like this, Lapis was the closest friend he had over on the planet… And the rest of his officers knew her, and his crew knew about her, they knew what Cordierite she liked about her, why he cared about her and all that.
The officers that he had gotten added to his roster since the war were annoying, rude and had very little idea on the type of ship he liked to run.
He blamed Yellow Diamond… This might have been a warship, but it wasn't her warship… And he didn't belong to her Court either at all.
"Now, if your excuse me… I still have 30 minutes before that meeting…. Like I said, this is my ship… And if you don't like it, you can take it up with Spinel or Axinite…. And make sure you use their names and not their Homeworld Designations… They've been around longer then you… And they've been on this blasted ship longer then you…"
Cordierite hissed as the Hessonite left the bridge, Cordierite rubbed his head in his hand in annoyed and crossed his arms in frustration, it hadn't been like this when the War wasn't a thing of the past.
"Blasted Yellow Gems…. Treating everything like a military operation… First it was that I was 'misusing Homeworld resources…' Like Jasper and Peridot weren't…. Then there was the fact that I came to Earth in the first place… Then there was the fact that I was putting so much attention into Lapis…"
Cordierite stated to himself as he looked off to the side, one of his crew, a Quartz Gem walked up to him and saluted.
"I've sent the report to Blue Diamond…. She's impressed you managed to find her… She didn't say much, but she did say she would be visiting Earth soon… She wanted us to get Lapis and pull out of this planet… Was there something I should have said, commander?"
Cordierite heard the Quartz state, Cordierite nodded in amusement, he looked out the bridge window before speaking up.
"Perhaps… We do have to deal with Jasper first… She's gone rouge, soldier…. We need to find her and take her down… Then I will take Lapis to the Solar Eclipse and we will leave… Not before… But it's after we deal with her… We have more stuff to deal with…"
Cordierite stated, he hid the fact that he wanted to hunt Jasper after hearing what she had done to Lapis… This wouldn't help anyone, he didn't want to involve the crew, this was his personal mission.
"It's sad to see such a soldier fall from grace… Ok, commander, we will attend to Jasper… I'm guessing we should let soldiers go to the surface and try and hunt down Jasper, sir?"
Cordierite heard and he shook his head, Jasper was a strong soldier, and he didn't want anyone to get hurt over the Quartz.
"No, no… I'll deal with her, just make sure Jasper is found so I can handle her… She's dangerous on her own…. Ok?"
Cordierite ordered, the Quartz soldier nodded and then left the bridge, Cordierite crossed his arms and looked off to the side.
He briefly wondered if Jasper had any idea what she had done… She would know soon.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter done! Yes, sadly this will be the last chapter, not because I ran out of ideas, but I wanted to point out that I will be handling other stories. Until then, this story will be on hold. I am sorry… I will also be doing more for the Silver Diamond story more. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
