A/N: Hey everyone. So I decided that this story has way too many people viewing it for it to be just removed so I decided I should continue with the story. I also deleted the other chapter that was named "When Dawn Hits" because that literally ruined the entire point of the story. So yeah, it's gone. I hope you all enjoy this brand new chapter. Also, the first part of the deleted chapter with Homeworld will still be here because it was the only part I liked about the chapter.


On Homeworld...

"My Diamond, I was going through some files and saw a Peridot was scheduled to check on the cluster back on the planet...Earth. She hasn't contacted us since and it's quite concerning seeing as how the last time she reported in she insisted that she'd be given a high ranking Jasper unit. Ever since then, no word from her." Yellow Pearl explained, looking up to the giant figure known as Yellow Diamond.

Yellow Diamond sighed in uninterest. "Which Peridot?"

Yellow Pearl gulped at Yellow Diamond's cold personality. "U-uh it's Peridot Facet-2F5L Cut-5XG."

Yellow Diamod sighed and opened up her hover pad and went through all of the files that held the tab with all the Peridot ranks. She soon found the Peridot that she wanted.

"Hmm, what a low ranked Peridot. I'm sorry, but who ordered this Peridot for a mission this important?" Yellow Diamond hissed.

"I'm afraid I don't know, my Diamond."

"Hm, I'll have to talk to her employer about this. Anyways, she took a high ranking Jasper, right? I'm pretty sure I know the one you are talking about. In fact, that certain Jasper is my third in command. The thing that intrigues me is that seeing as how Jasper is a powerful and ferocious Gem, it seems kind of strange that she hasn't handled this situation yet." Yellow Diamond spoke in a monotone voice.

"What are you implying, my Diamond?"

"I believe things are more complicated on Earth then it seems. The rebellion is over on Earth, so I don't understand what's going on over there that's making this mission so difficult... Pearl, send a scout to investigate the planet. Something is going on over there and I don't like it one bit." Yellow Diamond commanded.

"Y-yes, my Diamond." Yellow Pearl stuttered, a little frightened.


Steven walked back to the Temple so he could try out his new clothes. It wasn't exactly his style and he wasn't a big fan of plaid shirts but it'll have to do.

Once he got to his room he took off his usual attire and put on the black undershirt first. Afterwards, he put on his plaid red and black shirt but he didn't button it up, seeing as how he wanted the black undershirt to be seen as well. So basically the plaid shirt would act more like a jacket.

He grabbed for the jeans and soon put them on. Once he got all of his new clothes on he looked at himself in the mirror. He thought the clothes looked good on him, but he wondered how everyone else would react to his new attire.

Suddenly one of the temple doors opened and out came Amethyst. Amethyst glanced at Steven and suddenly her eyes widened and a huge grin formed on her face.

"Whoa, Steven! Nice clothes! When did you get them!?"

"Today. I bought them with the allowance my Dad gave me." Steven calmly explained. He wasn't really up for conversations right now.

"Oh wow Steven. Got sick and tired of your normal outfit, huh?" Amethyst questioned.

"I guess..." Steven just ignored everything Amethyst was saying and walked out on her. It was rude, but he really didn't feel like talking right now. What he wanted to do now was to find out more about Cassiterite's whereabouts. Steven got out his phone and started texting Connie.

Steven: Hey, do you wanna scope out the Kindergarten with me later? I wanna see if there's something we missed.

It took awhile for her too respond but soon he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. He took out his phone and read the message.

Connie: Yeah, sure. I have a bit of homework I have to finish up but once I'm done I should be able to go.

Steven: Alright, cool.

Steven now had to think of what to do for the next few hours. He heard his stomach growl and decided that he should go to the Big Donut.

Once he made it there, he opened the door and was greeted by Sadie. Sadie had a bored expression on her face. Her and Lars obviously weren't getting a lot of customers that day.

"Hey Sadie!" Steven greeted. Sadie looked at him in surprise.

"Hey Steven! Gosh I haven't seen you in forever! Nice outfit." Sadie complemented with a warm smile on her face.

"Thanks." Steven thanked, happy to know that another person liked his new outfit.

"No problem. So what can I get you today?"

"Oh, just the usual. But hey, have you seen anything..."weird" lately?" Steven questioned, wanting to know if anything seemed out of place in the city.

Sadie chuckled. "You're gonna have to be more specific than that. Weird stuff happens everyday for me."

"Like...anything strange or out of place?"

"Well, yeah, actually. A few nights ago I was locking up the store when someone passed by me. I could definitely tell she was a girl based on her body shape along with her hair. I couldn't get a good look on her face but she started running down the street in a real hurry. As if someone was chasing her. I looked at the place she came from and nothing was there. Ever since than, nothing out of the ordinary."

Steven's eyes slightly widened. She's here. She's in the town. Or was.

All the memories of the replica and Cassiterite started rushing back to him and he honestly couldn't handle it. He started sweating nervously, as if he was about to panic.

"Steven...are you okay?" Right as Sadie asked that, Steven busted out the door.

Sadie looked on in utter confusion. Lars came from the back and looked at the now panicked Steven running away.

"What's his deal?" Lars asked in his normal, "I don't care what's happening", tone.

"I dunno, but it must be something bad because..." Sadie trailed off.

"Because what?"

"Because he forgot his donuts."
