Disclaimer: I own nothing.


"D-did you just say...White Diamond?" Pearl gulped, sweat forming on her face. Amethyst looked confused, while Garnet just stayed silent. Steven took note of this.

"Steven, who told you about White Diamond?" Garnet asked, finally speaking up.

Steven looked at Garnet."A gem named Cassiterite. She came up to me at the park, and some how she managed to put my gem side to sleep. She than mentioned someone named White Diamond. Who is she?"

Garnet stayed silent, while Pearl looked like she was very nervous.

"I'm just as confused as you are Steven..." Amethyst stated.

"Uh, well Steven, a long time ago, while Garnet, Rose, and I were living on Home World, their were four rulers over each part of the world. They were called White Diamond, Yellow Diamond, Pink Diamond, and Blue Diamond. Together they made the Diamond Authority. Lapis I think is one of Blue Diamonds citizens. Jasper and Peridot are Yellow Diamonds citizens and warriors. And this Cassiterite gem you are talking about might work for White Diamond." Pearl explained as Steven and Amethyst began to understand.

"And you guys are just telling us now?" Amethyst complained, not liking the fact that they kept this from them.

"You don't understand, the Diamond Authority is filled with the most powerful gem leaders. They could wipe us all out in a second." Garnet stated.

"The only person who could stand a chance against them was..." Pearl trailed off. "Rose."

Steven was shocked. He had no idea his Mother was so powerful to be able to fend off these Gem leaders by herself! Yes, she was in the rebellion and it was stated multiple times that she was a strong gem, but Steven had no idea she was THAT powerful.

"Wait a second, you said their were four Gem leaders, but you only talked about three, White, Yellow, and Blue Diamond. What about Pink Diamond?" Steven asked. Pearl's eyes widened, while Garnet just looked down.

"Well, uh, that's a story for another time Steven..." Pearl stated nervously.

"But why?! What's so different between Pink Diamond and the others?" Amethyst questioned.

"Amethyst, you both are not ready. It's not the time for this." Pearl said.

"No, I think this is the perfect time for this. You guys are hiding something, spill it." Amethyst demanded.

"No way, telling you will just make things worse!" Pearl exclaimed.

"So what, you don't trust me or something?" Amethyst asked.

"No Amethyst, I really don't." Pearl simply stated.

"I don't see what's the problem here! Just tell me already!" Amethyst yelled.

"You know what Amethyst, I don't even think you deserve to know!" Pearl exclaimed. This angered Amethyst.

"Both of you, enough." Garnet demanded.

"No Garnet, it's not "enough". It's never enough for Pearl! She just always wants to be the perfect little Gem!" Amethyst insulted.

"At least I'm well coordinated, unlike you! You always put us and especially Steven in harms way! You're so immature and never take things serious enough!" Pearl claimed.

"At least I'm not an overprotective gem like you! You use to stalk Steven while he slept!" Amethyst retorted.

"Guys, stop!" Steven yelled.

"Stay out of this Steven!" Pearl commanded.

"But..."

"You want to know something Steven!? When you were born, Pearl didn't even want to look at you! All she wanted was Rose! She could care less about you!" Amethyst yelled.

"Amethyst, that's not true and you know it!" Pearl stated. Steven only looked at both of them, tears forming in his eyes. Garnet just looked at both of the arguing gems, not even going to step in to stop it. They needed to get these untold feelings out before moving on.

"Amethyst, you are acting ridiculous! This isn't what Rose said she saw in you!" Pearl stated.

"Ugh, it's always Rose with you! Why can't it be about Steven for once! Pearl, you need to move on! ROSE IS GONE AND SHE WILL PROBABLY NEVER COME BACK!" Amethyst exclaimed. Something in Pearl snapped. Amethyst had crossed the line with that one.

"What about you, Amethyst!? You seem to act all arrogant and tough but you're really just a childish, immature gem!" Pearl yelled.

"SHUT UP! Stop acting as if Rose is some kind of perfect being, she's not! So stop acting as if she was!"

"HOW DARE YOU TALK ABOUT ROSE THAT WAY! Do you know how much Rose has done for you?! I SHOULD HAVE TOLD ROSE TO LEAVE YOU'RE DEFECTIVE SELF BACK AT THE KINDERGARTEN!" Pearl screamed. Garnet, Steven, and especially Amethyst were shocked at to what Pearl just said.

Amethyst's eyes widened as tears started to form.

Pearl than realized what she said and felt the guilt wash over her.

"A-Amethstyst, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it-" Pearl stated as she reached out to Amethyst, only to be interrupted by her.

"Don't! Don't touch me!" Amethyst yelled as she ran back to the temple door, going to her room.

By this time, Steven's tears were flowing down his cheeks as he silently sobbed.

Pearl just stared at the temple door as Garnet walked over to Steven.

"Steven, I'm sorry you had to hear that. Amethyst, and Pearl...have a lot of unsaid feelings..." Garnet muttered.

"I-I know, I just hate seeing my friends argue..." Steven stated through sobs.

Garnet nodded as she looked over to Pearl.

"Pearl, I think we should leave Amethyst alone for now." Garnet advised, opening the temple door to her room. Soon afterwards, Pearl slowly did the same, going to her room.

Steven was soon the only person left in the house. More tears started coming out of his eyes, as he he went back to his bed and cried himself to sleep.
