Chapter 1: Lapis Lazuli Part 1: From Humble Beginnings

(Disclaimer! I own nothing of Steven Universe!)

The crowds were cheering for a band's name.

Backstage, people were getting ready for the action.

Legends, poets, rebels; They heard all of the possible names.

But the greatest story of this band is how it all began.

One person was tuning their bass, another was tuning their guitar.

And another one was hitting her drum kit.

That's me, its Amethyst. Nice to meet you all.

That's right. I'm the drummer of our awesome band, The Misfits.

Lapis is the one on vocals and rhythm guitar, Pearl is our bassist.

And Peri is the guitarist. Not to mention a spectacular genius.

The four of us met each other, formed a group, and the rest is history.

We were starting to walk to the stage ready to perform.

We had just earned a spot playing in Madison Square garden.

You're probably wondering, 'How did a group of misfits become a successful band?"

Well if I'm gonna tell this story right, I might as well start from the beginning.

(1 year earlier)

The story begins with Lapis Lazuli.

Lapis is known to have an amazing singing voice, but is often shy.

Also has an attractive figure hehehe.

(Lapis' POV)

I was walking around campus singing to myself.

While I was doing so, I didn't know that somebody was listening to me the entire time.

I was spending the entire day going through a lot of classes.

None of them particularly interesting, just boring.

Each class I had a deadpan face, like God just let this end.

It was early afternoon. The sun beat down on me aggressively but there was a pleasant breeze. I hummed a familiar tune as I made my way to class. I felt a tug at my shoulder.

"Pardon me, but is your name Lapis?" I heard is a raspy voice. I turned around to face Jasper, Gemstone University's idol.

"Who wants to know?" I asked annoyed

"Me of course" she chuckled

"My name's Jasper, and my band and I have been looking for a singer for our group," Jasper said.

I gave her my deadpan look.

"Soooooooooooo, what exactly does that have to do with me?" I asked uninterested.

"Well don't take it as stalking but... I overheard your beautiful singing voice," Jasper explained as she scratched her head.

I snorted and laughed.

"Sorry but that's stalking. Anyways, I'm not interested."

"Why not?" Jasper asked, "I mean honestly its something you like to do."

I gave Jasper a strange look.

"Sorry but you don't know a thing about me."

"Well, doesn't mean I can't get to know you," Jasper said brushing her hair away.

"To be honest, I couldn't care less what people think," I said putting my hand out, "My name's Lazuli. Lapis Lazuli."

"Jasper," she said shaking my hand, but… you already knew that."

I chuckled and shook her hand.

"Well in case you change your mind," Jasper said looking at me, "There's an audition for the band I'm putting together."

Her eyes were going down to my chest.

"Damn those are huge," She thought to herself.

I covered my chest with my arms, as I was a bit self conscious about my body.

"Eyes up here soldier," I said blushing, "So, where's it gonna be?"

Jasper snapped back to reality.

"Sorry. anyways, the audition is gonna be held in the practice room on campus. 6:00 pm sharp. Just pick a song of your choice and sing."

"Alright, maybe I'll come, maybe I won't," I said shrugging my shoulders, "Depends on my mood."

"Great, welp I gotta roll," Jasper said walking away.

I looked down to my chest.

"Are they really that attractive?" I asked myself
