Chapter 46: Making New Friends
The Crystal Gems were leading Revenger to the mountain area where Gien's Ship is located.
Revenger: Are we almost there?
Pearl: We are, but we're telling you this is a bad idea.
Revenger: If none of you want to go in that's fine. Leave him to me.
Soon they made it to where it was supposed to be. But there was no ship to be found.
Revenger: Well, where is it?
Garnet: It was supposed to be here.
Revenger: Supposed?
Peridot went closer to examine the area.
Peridot: Hmmm. Judging by the markings on the ground it seems he's moved the ship to a different location, making sure that we don't break into his base again.
Revenger: So where did he go now?
Garnet: We don't know. I can try and find something with my future vision of their new location, but it could be anywhere on the Earth and it will take some time. Until then, you'll probably have to wait for his next attack.
Revenger gets upset and punches a boulder right next to him, causing it to crumble. Then he just walks back to the warp pad upset. The others follow him from behind.
Amethyst: ( whispers) The dude really needs to take a chill pill.
Peridot: ( whispers) Seriously.
Steven: ( whispers) I know, but he's anxious. He said this is his main purpose.
Amethyst: ( whispers) I know, but he doesn't have to be so grouchy.
Even though the Gems knew about Revenger's story, they weren't so fond with his attitude.
Little while later.
They warped back to the house and Revenger marched outside.
Steven: Revenger, where are you...
Revenger: Let me know when Gien comes. I'll be outside.
Revenger walked outside and jumped up high in the air. Steven went out to see where he went. It was a bit hard to see but he could see Revenger standing on top of the head of the temple statue. He just stood their like a statue with his arms crossed. Steven wanted to talk to him, but he knew he wasn't in the mood to talk and so let him be for a while.
Three days later.
Revenger always stood on the same spot never moving just waiting for the Gara Droids next attack. Steven would check on him now and then since so far, he's the only one Revenger will talk to. Steven kept offering him to come inside and hang with him and the others, but he kept declining. The only times he would come is when no one else was home and to check on his cat who settled inside with Steven. One day no one was home, except Garnet who just came from her room. Revenger's cat got up and saw her. She approached her with her paws up.
Garnet: Hi there cutie.
Garnet took a liking to the cat. She found her to be cute and playful. Garnet picked her up and sat down on the couch petting her. As this was happening, Revenger entered the house but paused when he saw Garnet.
Garnet: Hello Revenger.
Revenger: I'll leave.
Revenger was about to leave until Garnet stopped him.
Garnet: No, no, you don't have to go.
Revenger: I think I should.
Garnet: But this cutie wants you here as well.
Revenger looks away for a moment and then back.
Garnet: Go on. Sit down.
Revenger walks to Garnet and sits next to her. He doesn't know what to do since he never really talked much with the gems.
Revenger: Have you um, found any whereabouts on the Gara Droid base yet.
Garnet: Not yet. I can't find anything clear yet. I'm still trying you know.
Revenger: I see.
Revenger looks at the cat snuggling with Garnet.
Revenger: It seems she likes you.
Garnet: She does. I've been spending time with her whenever you weren't around. If that's okay with you that is.
Revenger: It's fine, I mean I only come down here whenever no one is here.
Garnet: Why do you keep avoiding us?
Revenger: No reason.
Garnet: There has to be a reason why. Come on what is it?
Revenger: I don't... I don't know, I guess I just don't feel comfortable here.
Garnet: What do you mean?
Revenger: Look at me. I'm made of different parts of dead droids. People out their called me a monster because of this.
Garnet: You're not a monster. We're all different here, but we accept one another.
Revenger: But you're all gems, I'm not.
Garnet: That doesn't matter. Steven is half human and his friend Connie often helps us and she's human, you don't have to be a gem. The fact that you're a droid who doesn't serve the Gara Droids is really intersting.
Revenger: I don't serve the Gara Droids, but I'm not on you're team either.
Garnet: You don't have to be, but can I ask you something?
Revenger: What is it?
Garnet: If you manage to kill Gien, what will you do next?
Revenger: Then I would fix the pod I used to get here, leave this planet and then assasinate the Diamonds.
Garnet: Why the Diamonds?
Revenger: Because we droids hate them as well. All Gara Droids do and one day plan to kill them.
Garnet: Okay, then what?
Revenger: What do you mean then what?
Garnet: What else did you want to do with your life.
Revenger looked at her confused and then looked down.
Revenger: I-I don't know.
Garnet: You don't know?
Revenger: The only reason I'm here was just to avenge those that were killed by him. I'm only here for them, not for myself. I never thought what else I wanted to do.
Garnet: Well, maybe you should start a new life here.
Revenger: I told you I don't care about this planet or the life here.
Garnet: You like this cat.
Revenger: That's different.
Garnet: How?
Revenger: Because... because she was about to be killed by someone who kills for no reason, just like me, I mean the fallen.
Garnet: So you found her relatable.
Revenger: Yes.
Garnet: I get that. But don't kill anymore humans here. It's the worst crime here, well actually on any planet really.
Revenger: I know, I promised Steven not to kill anyone else here.
Garnet: Good, also I've been meaning to ask you something. Are you a fusion?
Revenger: A what?
Garnet: A fusion. It's when two or more gems form together in a new being. But to do it, they have to be in perfect sync mentally, physically and emotionally. Most gems back on Homeworld would only fuse with the same type and fuse just for power.
Revenger: Are you one?
Garnet shows him her hands, he never noticed her gems.
Garnet: I made from two gems in a relationship. Ruby was assigned to be Sapphire's body guard, while Sapphire was willing to accept her deadly fate, Ruby refused and tried to save her. But suddenly they fused into a new being. At first we were confused by this. For some reason they wanted to keep being together and be well me. Soon I realized why, it was love. I am made from their love.
Revenger: That's why you stay like this?
Garnet: Mmmm-hmmm.
Revenger looks down.
Revenger: That does sound like me, but droids can't fuse with gems.
Garnet: Has it ever been attempted?
Revenger: From what I can remember from the fallen memories, we're incompatible of that kind of technique since we're machines. Maybe I am the first droid fusion, but I'm not made of love. I'm made from hate and pain. That is all I feel and think of.
Garnet: You don't always have to feel that way. We can help you.
Revenger: How?
Garnet: Well we're doing it now. Talking to me and letting me get to know you.
Revenger: It seems you and I aren't so different after all uh... um what was you're name again?
Garnet: Garnet?
Revenger: Garnet, yes. We're not so different after all Garnet.
Garnet: No, we're not.
The cat moved over to him as he petted her.
Revenger: Good cat.
Garnet: What's her name?
Revenger: Name?
Garnet: You never gave her a name?
Revenger: I thought cat was her name.
Garnet: That's just the name of the animal. You need to name her to distinguish her from others.
Revenger: Well, how about you name her?
Garnet: Is it okay?
Revenger: The names I had in mind might me too complicated. You know better.
Garnet: Alright then, I will name her... Steven.
Revenger: Isn't that going to be confusing.
Garnet: Alright then, how about Cat Steven.
Revenger: Fine then. Cat Steven it is.
Garnet and Revenger continued talking as they got to know each other more . It was his first step into making new friends.
The next day.
Revenger was standing on top of the temple again just waiting and it was getting dark, back on the ground Steven heard a knock on the door and went to answer it. It was Peridot and Lapis along with Charlie. It was their weekly game night and Steven's house.
Steven: Hey guys.
Lapis: Hi Steven, sorry we're late. Peridot kept holding us back.
Peridot: Well excuse me Lazuli. I had to prepare for this game night by finishing watching players fighting skills on this Super Smash Bros. I am prepared to beat you this time.
Lapis: That's what you said last week, and the week before that, and the week before that and the...
Peridot: Okay, okay I get that. But I am ready this time.
Steven: It's alright, Amethyst is still making snacks.
Steven saw Revenger standing up there still, but he didn't want leave him up there alone. Steven tried to call out for him.
Steven: Hey Revenger! You want to come inside? We're having game night!
Revenger didn't respond.
Steven: I don't think he heard me.
Lapis: I'll go get him, you guys head inside.
Lapis flies up to the top of the temple to talk to him.
Lapis: Hey.
Revenger: What do you want Lapis Lazuli?
Lapis: In case you didn't here, Steven invited you to come down and hang with us.
Revenger: Is that right, well tell him I'm not interested.
Lapis: You just want to stand here for the rest of the night? It's going to be fun.
Revenger: I'm not here for fun. I'm only here just to kill Gien and that's it.
Revenger looks away.
Lapis: ( sighs) Can I just say one thing?
Revenger: What is it?
Lapis: This isn't healthy for you.
Revenger: What's not healthy?
Lapis: Distancing yourself from everyone, holding onto your anger and hate. It will cause you to do things you will regret.
Revenger: What do you know about how I feel?
Lapis: Because I did the same exact thing.
Revenger now looks at her.
Lapis: For over 5,000 years I was trapped in a mirror. I was trapped and scared for years and when the other Crystal Gems found me, they didn't set me free because they thought I was a threat. I had so much rage and hate building up for so long. When Steven found me and made me smile, I wasn't exactly a good gem. The first thing I did after he freed me was attacking him and his friends, stole the Earth's ocean and nearly destroyed the whole planet all because I wanted to go home. But the weird thing about is, Steven still befriended me and healed me. I didn't derserve to have a friend like him, but somehow I did.
Revenger listened to Lapis's story. He didn't think anyone else would have gone through something horrible like he did as well.
Revenger: I had no idea.
Lapis: Well now you know.
Revenger: So then, he healed you and then you joined his side.
Lapis: Well, not just yet. I was taken prisoner for trying to send him a warning message and then I was forced back here by another gem named Jasper. She wanted me to fuse with her so she could kill him. I fused and we became Malachite but not to attack, but so I can keep her trapped and dragged ourselves to the bottom of the ocean. I took my entire rage and fury onto her.
Revenger: I don't know what this Jasper is. But she sounds just like Raditz.
Lapis: Who's that?
Revenger: Uh, no one special, just a really weak elite I killed on the way here. Anyway, isn't what you did a good thing? You said she was bad. She deserved to suffer.
Lapis: But when I fused that showed how bad I would be if I fused with someone I love. I'm scared that if I fuse with someone else, I'll end up doing the same thing over, taking my anger out on them. I don't want to do that anymore.
Revenger: But you fused with that Peridot when we first encountered.
Lapis: Well, Peridot and I had the same goal and that was saving someone we cared for.
Revenger: It's funny, Garnet was talking to me the other day about fusion and wondered if I were one as well. Is fusion a major factor in you're team?
Lapis: Well, sort of. Steven told me that fusion is more of a choice and when I'm ready I can fuse with him.
Revenger: So how did you join the team then?
Lapis: So after keeping Malachite down for a while, I couldn't hold it anymore. Jasper took full control of her and then fought against the others. Thankfully they managed separate us. Once I regained conciousness, I made amends with them and decided to help in any way I could, but Peridot was with them also. At the time I hated her because she was with Jasper and kept me prisoner. But all she wanted to do now was change and be my friend and I kept pushing her away. Eventually she and I officially became friends.
Revenger: How can you befriend her if she was bad to you? Especially if it's true that she was once Gien's apprentice.
Lapis: Because Steven said that people deserve second chances. Which brings me to my point. Holding onto your anger and distancing yourself from everyone will make you regret not making any friends. If you keep doing this, oe day you're going to be all alone with no there to be by your side or to back you up. I'm lucky I didn't end up like that.
Revenger looked at her confused.
Revenger: Are you saying I deserve a second chance? Even after what I did?
Lapis: Of course, besides I think Peridot was a lot worst then you.
Revenger: No one is worst than me.
Lapis: ( chuckles) Sure, so do you want to come inside or what?
Lapis reaches his hand for him. He was a bit nervous going down with the others, but if this team really is about love and acceptence, he should do so. He takes Lapis's hand.
Revenger: Well, it gets boring standing here all day.
Lapis: Okay, come one.
Revenger: Oh wait one more thing, um... I uh...
Lapis: What?
Revenger: I uh... I'm sorry for almost killing you that day.
Lapis: It's alright, it would have been quick and painless unlike my past treatments.
Revenger: R-Right.
The two of them flew back down and met with the others upstairs.
Steven: Hey Revenger, I'm glad you could join us tonight.
Revenger: Yes, Steven I uh...Lapis told me what you guys were going to do and it sounds uh, fun.
Steven: Yeah we do this every week. We're about to play Super Smash Bros Ultimate.
Amethyst hands him an extra Joy con.
Amethyst: Here you go Rev.
Revenger: Thank you purple one.
Amethyst: It's Amethyst.
Revenger: Right sorry. Still trying to memorize all your names.
Amethyst: It's cool. Just ask us our names again if you can't remember.
Revenger takes the the joy con controller and looks at it. It seemed tiny but wasn't uncomfortable and still managable.
Amethyst: Okay dude, turn on the game.
Peridot: Yes, I am about to smash you all with my favorite character, the bubblegum absorber!
Steven: Um, don't you mean Kirby Peridot?
Peridot: Oh yes that his name.
Lapis: I'd love to see you try Peridot.
Peridot: Oh I will Lazuli.
And so the five of them selected their characters and they were either in teams fighting or just fighting each other. Revenger took some time adjusting to the controls, but soon found himself enjoying it and was pretty competitive.
The next day.
Revenger was starting to be more comfortable around the gems. After getting to know Amethyst and Peridot better by hanging out with them and looking at the latter's meep morps, he has also been helping Pearl around the house and took interest in Bismuth's forging. But he still hasn't been comfortable around humans.
It was sunset and Steven got out of the house holding a container of what appeared to be snack sushi. He head towards the Big Donut and entered. Sadie was alone and was just closing the register.
Steven: Hey Sadie, are you ready to go to the potluck yet?
Sadie: Almost Steven, just closing up.
Steven: Hey where's Lars?
Sadie: He needed time to bake the cake he wanted to take so I let him go early to do so. But it's okay, it's a slow day anyway.
Sadie was just done and she and Steven exited out and locked the doors. She was bringing a box of donuts for the potluck. But then a yellow car pulled up in front of them. The door opened and it was Kevin.
Kevin: Pffft, this is the best place I can find to get a snack?
Steven( angry face) Kevin.
Kevin: Huh, oh it's you again twerp. Where's your little girlfriend huh? Did you wanna be Stevonnie and race me again? Cause like I said, once people meet Kevin, they can't get enough of him.
Steven: I really don't have time for this.
The scene shifts to Revenger overhearing this from the top of the temple. He turns around see's what's going on.
Kevin: Well neither do I, I'm just here to get something to eat.
Sadie: I'm sorry sir, but we're closed.
Kevin: But you barely got out, just open the door and serve one last guy.
Sadie: But I already closed the register and put everything else away.
Kevin: Okay fine, but I see you with that box of donuts, why don't you give that to me. I'll pay you.
Sadie: What no.
Kevin: Are you defying me? Are you defying Kevin?
Sadie: These aren't for you, it's for a party we're going to.
Steven got in front of Kevin.
Steven: Just stop Kevin. Go somewhere else.
Kevin: Stay out of it!
Kevin pushes Steven away, knocking him down along with his snack sushi. Revenger see's this and is now enraged.
Sadie: Hey back off man! What's your deal?
Kevin: My deal? No, what's your deal? A fat dwarf like you is refusing to serve the one and only Kevin. You should be honored that a guy like me would venture to this dump. Now be a good girl and give it to me.
Sadie: No!
Kevin: Why you...
Kevin now looked mad. He raised his hand was about to slap her. Sadie shut her eyes fearing she was about to get hit, but a moment later she opened up and saw someone grabbing Kevin's arm. Kevin felt someone grabbing onto his arm.
Kevin: What the?
He looked back and saw Revenger firmly grasping his arm. Steven got up and saw what was happening.
Steven: Revenger?
Kevin: Who the hell are you?
Revenger: You hurt my friend.
Kevin: ( to Steven) Oh who is he supposed to be, your body guard? Are you that scared of me that you hired someone to protect you?
Steven: I am not scared of you.
Revenger: Silence. You were about to hurt that girl as well.
Kevin: So? She refused to serve me. I'm the one who should be offended. Now why don't you get lost already.
Revenger really did not like his attitude and slowly began crushing arm.
Kevin: Ow, hey, ow! What are you...ow, ow, ow! What are you doing, do you know who I am?!
Kevin puched him in the chest, but ended up breaking his hand.
Kevin: AURGH!
Revenger lets go of his arm and then grabs him by the front of his shirt and lifts him up.
Kevin: Hey. W-What are you...
Revenger: I don't like people that harm other's for their own amusment or greed.
Revenger with his other arm forms his wrist blade. Kevin now looked scared.
Kevin: Whoa, uh. Come on man this is not cool. You don't want to kill me, not Kevin. If you let me live, I'll, uh, I'll give you this car. It's the best one I got too.
Revenger was not listening and was about to kill Kevin.
Steven: Revenger stop! Don't do this!
Sadie: Yeah don't do this mister. I appreciate what you're trying to do, but you don't have to kill him for it.
Revenger: This scumbag should pay what he is done, with his blood!
Steven: He's a jerk yes, but he's not worth it. Don't do it. You promised remember?
Revenger stopped what he was doing as he rememberd his promise to Steven and that was not to kill any people. He sighs and retracts his wrist blade. Kevin sighs in relief, but Revenger wasn't done with him yet. He was now holding him from the back of his shirt and held him in front of Steven and Sadie.
Revenger: Apologize.
Kevin: What?
Revenger: I promised not to kill you, but I never promised on hurting you. Now if you don't want me to break your arms and legs, you will apologize in the count of five.
Kevin: I don't apologize. Kevin never...
Revenger: 1, 2, 3...
Kevin: Okay, okay. I'm sorry.
Revenger: ( shakes Kevin) LOUDER!
Kevin: AAAAAH! I'm sorry! I'm sorry I assaulted you! I won't do it again!
Revenger: Good.
Revenger drags Kevin to his car. He opens the door and throws him in. Before Kevin drove off, Revenger had one last thing to say.
Revenger: Now drive away. If I ever see you treat others bad again, the last thing you will see is your heart beating in my hands as you die.
Kevin gulps and nods his head as he quickly drove away. He turns to Steven and Sadie.
Sadie: Wow, you really scared him, especially with the whole ripping his heart out threat.
Revenger: I was serious on that.
Sadie: Oh well, thanks saving us uh...Revenger right?
Revenger: That is my name.
Sadie: I'm Sadie.
Revenger nods and turns to Steven, but he looked a bit upset for his snack sushi was ruined.
Sadie: Oh Steven, I'm so sorry.
Steven: ( sighs) It's alright I can make more. You go on ahead.
Sadie: No it's okay, I can wait for you.
Revenger: What is this for Steven?
Steven: Well earlier today we were invited by our friend Buck to go over to Sour Cream's house for a potluck.
Sadie: It's like a party and we bring some food over.
Revenger: Oh I see.
Steven: Yeah I need like another 10 minutes to do this, but hey why not come with us?
Revenger: I rather not.
Steven: Come on why?
Revenger: Going to a party with humans? Gems are one thing, but they are another. They're barbaric, cruel and evil.
Steven: No they're not Revenger.
Revenger: Did you already forget that guy that pushed you?
Steven: Okay that was Kevin, he's known to be a jerk, but not all humans are bad.
Revenger: So far every human I've met is bad.
Sadie: Well, I'm not bad.
Revenger: Because you're differnt.
Sadie: And how is that?
Revenger: Because you were threatened and you seem to be good to Steven.
Sadie: Exactly, not all people are bad. This potluck we're going to has some great people.
Revenger: But...
Steven: Revenger, this is a good chance for you to learn more about humans. Being friends with us was the first step and now getting to know humans in a better light is the next one. Just give it a chance.
Revenger looks down for a bit, then turns to Sadie and then to Steven.
Revenger: Fine then. Once chance.
Steven: Alright. I better get started on making a new batch.
Steven went back to the house to make a new batch of snack sushi, leaving Revenger and Sadie alone. Sadie looks at him and places her hand onto his arm. Revenger looks down at her.
Sadie: It's going to be okay trust me. You'll love my friends and I'll guide you through this okay?
Revenger: ( nods) Alright.
Soon Steven came with a new batch of snack sushi and the three of them headed to Sour cream's house. Steven also brought with him an extra package of paper plates and gave it to Revenger so he can give it to the party. Soon they made it there and entered. Steven and Sadie entered the living room first where Buck, Jenny and Sour Cream were at.
Steven: Hey guys!
Buck: Sup.
Jenny: Hey Steven. Hey Sadie.
Sour Cream: It's about time you guys got here.
Steven: Oh if it's okay with you guys, we brought another friend. It was a last minute thought actually.
Buck: Oh it's cool. Who is he?
Steven looks back and see's Sadie talking to Revenger who the latter is off screen.
Sadie: It's okay, you can come on out.
Revenger enters the room and the coo kids had mildly surprised expressions on their faces.
Sour Cream: ( whistles) Nice look man.
Revenger: Hello uh cool humans. I am Revenger, I'm Steven and Sadie's friend.
Buck: Sup, I'm Buck.
Jenny: I'm Jenny.
Sour Cream: And I'm Sour Cream. Welcome to my house!
Revenger shows them the package of paper plates.
Revenger: Um, Steven told me you're supposed to bring food to these type of things. I didn't have any, but Steven...
Sadie nudged at him reminding him that it supposed to be from him.
Revenger: I mean I brought these paper plates. I'm not sure if you're supposed to eat them or what, but you might need them for something.
Sour Cream: Did you say paper plates?
Sour Cream turns off the lights and throws a handful of glowsticks and then turns the lights back on.
Sour Cream: Hooray! Now I don't have to do the dishes. Thanks man.
Revenger: Oh you're welcome. ( in his mind) So humans like these paper plates as peace offerings. Weird.
Buck: I like this guy. Why don't you take a seat with us?
Revenger: Um okay.
Revenger turns to Steven and forms what he was told a thumbs up. Steven gave him a thumbs up back. He sat right next to Jenny.
Sadie: Wait, but where's Lars? He should have been here by now.
Steven: He's probably running late. I'll go get him.
Steven exited out of the door and in moments he bumped into Lars holding is ube cake.
Lars: Whoa careful! This took many attempts to make.
Steven: Oh sorry Lars, we were just wondering when you would get here.
Lars: Sorry I'm late. I just wanted to make this the best I could.
Steven: Well come on. Everyone else is waiting.
The two of them entered the house and into the living room.
Lars: Guess who brought the... ah!
Lars face turned into horror when he saw Revenger sitting by the cool kids. Everyone else noticed him and greeted him casually.
Buck: Yo Lars. How you doing?
Jenny: Oh hey Lars, who what's that? Some kind of cake?
Sour Cream: Come on join the party.
Lars just slowly approached the them placing the ube on the table and began sweating when Revenger stared at him.
Sadie: Are you okay Lars?
Lars: Can I talk to you guys for a moment?
Lars pulls Steven and Sadie out of the living room.
Steven: Lars what's wrong?
Lars: What's wrong? Isn't that one of those Robotmen that Ronaldo talks about in his blogs?
Steven: Revenger is not one of them. He's actually here to fight against the Gara Droids.
Lars: But isn't he the one that robbed the grocery store this week?
Steven: He didn't know better. I talked to him about this.
Sadie: He's not going to hurt anyone Lars. He'll do as we say.
Lars:( sighs) Alright, I'm trusting you two on this.
They went back into the living room. Revenger was staring at Lars, which creeped the latter out a bit.
Lars: Um, why is he staring at me?
Revenger got up and approached Lars. He reached his hand to him in the form of a hand shake.
Revenger: Hello human. I am Revenger.
Lars: Uh, I'm Lars.
Lars tries shaking his hand, but Revenger's grip was so tight it hurts. After shaking hands, he noticed Sour Cream having some technical problems on his laptop.
Steven: Something wrong Sour Cream?
Sour Cream: I'm trying to get the rythm beats working on my laptop, but this thing got a virus last week and I haven't got time to get it fixed.
Revenger: Allow me.
Revenger takes the laptop. He forms his finger into a usb port and inserted it into the laptop. His eye's glowed green and so did the computer screen. In a minute he stopped and gave it back to Sour Cream.
Revenger: Now try.
Sour Cream tried running his computer again and runs much better.
Sour Cream: Whoa. Dud what did you...
Revenger: I simply hacked into your device and exterminated all the virus in it.
Steven: ( star in his eyes) You can do that?
Revenger: One of the souls that made me was a professional hacker named Chuzuubo. I possess his knowledge.
Sour Cream: I don't know who that is, but you man...you man deserve the bean bag as a thank you.
Jenny: Yeah that bean bag is sick. You should try it.
Sour Cream put out the bean bag for him. Revenger sat down and sank a bit.
Revenger: Hmmm. Comfortable.
So they spent the rest of the night talking and chilling and eating whatever they brought. Everyone seemed to like Lars ube, making him feel proud of himself. Revenger was the only one who didn't eat, simply because he can't for he is a droid, but even if he could he doesn't have a mouth. Towards the end, they were trying to make some music and sang.
( They began singing the potluck song)
Buck: Pizza potluck Potluck, potluck
Sadie: Potluck Potluck Po-ot-lu-u-u-u-uck Po-o-otluck Potluck
Revenger listened to her singing. He really enjoyed hearing the sound of her voice. Once she was done, everyone applaud to her.
Sour Cream: Whoa nice!
Jenny: Nice, nice ending.
Buck: That was fresh Sadie.
Steven: Yeah Sadie that was great.
Lars: Hey I enjoyed it too, really.
Sadie: Oh, well thanks guys. Revenger?
Revenger: ( nods) Beautiful.
The party ended and Steven, Revenger, Lars and Sadie were the first to leave.
Jenny: Bye guys, see ya.
Sour Cream: You have a good night.
Buck: I'll see you all again soon, especially you Revenger.
Sadie: Later guys.
Steven: Bye thank you.
Lars: Yeah see ya.
Revenger: Thank you.
The exited out of the house.
Steven: So what did you think Revenger?
Revenger: I will admit, these people are cool.
Sadie: I told you, not all people are bad, it just depends on who you meet.
Lars looked nervouse and wanted to ask Sadie if he could take her home.
Lars: Hey Sadie...
Revenger: Sadie do you need me to walk you home?
Sadie: Oh why, sure if it's okay with you.
Revenger: It's fine.
Sadie: Okay, sorry Lars what were you about to say?
Lars: N-Nothing, I'll see you at work tomorrow.
Sadie: Oh well okay, good night guys.
Steven: Good night Sadie.
Revenger walked with Sadie back to her home, leaving Steven and Lars behind. Lars had an upset look on his face.
Steven: Wow, Revenger really is learning a lot here.
Lars: Yeah, but he doesn't have to be a show off.
Steven: What are you talking about?
Lars: I mean you saw him, he made a better impression to the cool kids than I did and Sadie chose him to walk home instead of me.
Steven: You could have told her that you wanted to take her home.
Lars: She chose to go with him first, it's already done. I mean, he seems to be strong and would keep her out of trouble if she went alone.
Steven: Come on Lars don't be jealous.
Lars: I'm not jealous! I'm just... forget it. Bye Steven.
Lars walks back home. Steven nods his head and he heads home.
Meanwhile back with Sadie and Revenger.
Sadie: I'm glad you had fun tonight.
Revenger: Yeah, I did. I really liked you're singing.
Sadie: Oh well thanks. I mean not many people know I like to sing.
Revenger: Why is that?
Sadie: I just, I just thought that nobody would be interested.
Revenger: Well I'm interested.
Sadie: That's good, but I don't know. There were many times I always dreamt to be a rockstar, but I don't think I have what it takes.
Revenger: Sure you do. Isn't there someplace you can do it?
Sadie: Well yeah, but even if I was fully determined to do so, I can't just leave my job. Lars would be alone and he can't even handle that. Maybe someday if I ever find a replacement I can, but I still need time to think.
Revenger: Think about it. Because Steven and his friends told me how this planet is a place where they choose to be what they are. You have that same will don't you?
Sadie: Well, I guess. If I ever do become a rockstar, would you come and watch my shows?
Revenger looked at her for a moment. He was in a deep thought for a moment, finally he responed.
Revenger: Yes I will.
Sadie: Aw, thanks.
Sadie hugged him which took him by surprise, but he hugged her back. Finally they made it back to her house.
Sadie: Well, thanks again for walking me home Revenger. I'll see you later.
Revenger: Thank you for you're time Sadie. Good night.
Sadie entered her house, leaving Revenger alone. He walked away and thought to himself.
Revenger: What am I doing? I came to this planet for one reason only, to kill Gien. But now I'm befriending and spending time with these gems and humans. What do I do now? Should I leave once I'm done? Do I even have the spark to leave them? What do I even do after I accomplish my mission?
Revenger kept thinking and wasn't sure if he could stay here or leave. Maybe he should talk to Steven he thought, but he will wait tomorrow to do so. He flew up into the air headed back to the temple.
Meanwhile at Gien's ship.
Gien has moved his ship to the top of Mt. Fuji in Japan. Huntress and Viggo enterd his lab.
Gien: Huntress, Viggo. Have you finished settling things in the new location?
Viggo: Everything is all set and we cloaked the ship to keep humans away from it.
Gien: Excellent. Soon we'll begin our next attack on those Crystal Gems.
Huntress: But my lord, that rouge droid. He's out there looking for you. What do we do if he comes with them?
Gien: Not to worry Huntress. No droid goes rouge on me. He will make an excellent addition to our team.
Viggo: My lord, I don't think he is willing to join us after what he did.
Gien: Of course he's not willing to.
Gien takes out what appeared to be a small device with a small red light.
Gien: He'll have to.
To be continued...
Author's Note: That's it for this chapter. What do you think of Revenger so far? I'm trying to add new heroic characters into the story. Not too many that it would be hard to keep up, but I thought I should do so since I have too many villains. Special thanks to Lady Shadow92 for suggesting that Revenger should be friends with Lapis and Sadie. I hope you enjoyed. Please read and review. Thank you.
