INVADER PINK- THE PINK NIGHTMARE
PART 3
(Note: This part will setup more of the status quo of this universe and show you a few more altered characters. I had fun with this one and I hope you enjoy. :)
THE NEXT DAY
Beach city Middle school was like any other school you'd see. Kids were making their way out of their parent's cars and into the school building, pretty normal stuff. Or somewhat normal until a brightly colored Van with MR. UNIVERSE on the side. All the kid's eyes were immediately on the van and the boy who just exited it.
"Have a good first day of school Stu-ball." A slightly balding long-haired man said poking his head out of the car
"I'll try dad." Steven says with a small amount of enthusiasm
"Hey Steven, your gonna do great. I know it." Steven's dad says
"Thanks, I'll do my best." Steven says getting a smile from his father as he drove away
Steven then turned and faced the school, plus all the kids who were currently staring at him. He gave a small smile and wave letting out a "Hello" in hopes of making a good first impression. All the kids immediately turned away from him and started whispering amongst themselves. Steven let out a nervous laugh as he slowly made his way to the school steps. He was halfway when another van pulled up, this one more normal. And he turned to see who it was.
"Connie do you have everything for school?" a woman says
"Yes Ma'am." Connie says exiting the car
"Books, pencils, notebooks, phone, ID?" The woman asks
"Yes Ma'am." Connie says taking her backpack
"You Remember your class schedule?"
"Yes Ma'am." Connie says checking its contents
"Okay I'm gonna be late at the hospital tonight, so you will have to walk home. You remember the way right, I set a route on your phone just in case." The woman yes slightly worried
"Yes Ma'am." Connie says as she begins to walk away
"OH CONNIE! Your book!" the woman says holding out a book, Connie immediately turned around to go and get it, and as soon as she did the woman gave her a kiss on the forehead
"I love you Connie. Your gonna do wonderfully." The woman says smiling
"Thanks mom." Connie says with a blush and smile
Steven watched as the car drove away and the girl Connie opened her book. She became totally engrossed in it walking and reading seamlessly making her way up the stairs with no trouble.
"H-Hi I'm Steven nice to-." Steven said fumbling with his words as the girl passed him without paying him any mind
"O-okay then." Steven said with a sigh as he made his way inside
Steven made his way to his class U-213, he took a deep breath and pushed the door open. He was greeted by a rather chaotic scene or kids sitting on their desks, talking, using their phones, and throwing paper. Steven closed his door behind as he entered watching everybody go. He stood in the front silent nervously as everybody did their thing no paying attention to him
"I-um-excuse me-I wanted to ask-." Steven said quietly not getting anyone's attention
BAM
Everyone turned as the door slammed open. In walked a woman in her late 20's she had brown wavy hair with a blue Highlight in it. She was wearing short sleeve light blue button up shirt and jeans with sneakers. Her eyes were heavy and bored as she walked to the desk in front of the class everyone looking at her. Steven watched as she sat down with her cup of coffee, Steven focusing on the mug which said 'LIFE'S A BEACH AND THEN YOU DROWN'.
"Um-Hello I'm-." Steven said trying to introduce himself only for the woman to raise a finger to stop him.
She took a large swig from her mug before looking over the class. She then raised her head taking in a deep breath, and then letting out a long groan as she lowered her head onto the desk. There was a full minute of silence with everyone looking at her as she just rested her head on the desk.
"And I'm ready. Hello class I'm Ms. Lazuli, I'll be your teacher for this year. You work with me, I'll work with you, and this will be less painful for all of us." Ms. Lazuli says looking over the class with her bored expression
"I know every single one of you here so let's not waste any time on that. However, we have some new students. You with the Star, introduce yourself." Lazuli says
"O-Oh right, hello everyone my name is Steven Quartz Universe. It's nice to meet you all." Steven says enthusiastically some of the kids snickering at his name
"Quite the colorful name, your parents were really into peace and love when they had you huh?" Lazuli says
"I am pretty sure they like Peace and Love, I do a lot. Do you to?" Steven asks with a smile getting a look from Lazuli
"Take your seat, it'll be the one your butt gets used to all year." Lazuli says pointing to the desks
There were only 3 desks left near the center. And Steven took the one dead center locking eyes with Ms. Lazuli. She couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at the boy who seemed to be exuding optimism. Then the door opened again.
"I am really sorry I'm late Miss." Connie says entering the room
"Trust me kid it doesn't matter…... nothing really does." Lazuli groans
"I promise it won't happen again, I just needed to talk with the main office about-." Connie says in a rushed toned
"Kid, Kid, stop before you bite your tongue. New kid, introduce yourself, take a seat." Lazuli says pointing to the desk
"Hello my name is Connie Maheswaran, it's a pleasure to meet you all." She says like it was rehearsed bowing her head to the class. She then took the seat to the left of Steven as he looked at her nervously
"Okay then, all that's out of the way we can get started. Please pay attention, I won't repeat myself and take note so-." Lazuli says getting up and picking up some chalk only for a knock at the door to get her attention another adult standing outside
"Uuuuugh, what now? I'll be back don't cause a ruckus," Lazuli says going to the door and walked out
As soon as she did the room went into chaos again Steven and Connie the only ones remaining in their seats. Connie however took out her book and started reading again, while Steven drummed his fingers on the desk. His mind raced as he tried to think of something to say to her, she was a new kid like him this was his best chance at making a friend. But he didn't know what to say, plus she didn't seem interested in talking at the moment. His eyes then went to the book she was reading.
WHEN SPACE LOOKS BACK: TRUE ACCOUNTS OF EXTRATERRESTRIAL ENCOUNTERS
"Oh, you're into aliens?" Steven asks
"I know what you're about to say, so please spare me the jokes and taunts I've heard them all." Connie says almost annoyed not looking away from the book
"Wha?" Steven asks
"I'm used to it; everyone thinks I'm weird. Calling me the crazy girl for believing in aliens, so if your gonna start just save it and keep to yourself." Connie says gripping the book tightly
"Wait, Wait I'm not gonna make fun of you. I believe in Aliens to." Steven says making Connie immediately put the book down and lock eyes with him
"What game are you playing? This is supposed to be the long con or something?" Connie asks
"Why would I, I'm new here to?" Steven asks as Connie looks at him curiously
"So, you don't think that aliens are just for conspiracy nuts and were alone in the universe?" Connie asks him quizzically
"Well if the universe is a big as people say, it wouldn't really make sense if were the only functioning species. There's gotta be something else out there." Steven reasons
"FINALLY, SOMEONE ELSE GET'S IT!" Connie yells surprising Steven
"So, you… wanna meet an alien?" Steven asks smiling
"Meet no, I'm preparing." Connie says
"For what?" Steven asks
"For the Invasion of course." Connie says
"Invasion." Steven says
"Yeah, of course someday an extraterrestrial threat will descend upon us and try to take over our world. And we must be ready to fight them off and defend humanity." Connie says
"What if their friendly?" Steven asks
"If they come in peace, we'll extend a hand of friendship, but we still must be ready. Who knows what terrifying powers they have or advanced technology thousands of years ahead of our own or their incredible intellects?" Connie says
"What if they aren't super terrifying or really that…... intelligent." Steven says thinking back to last night
"They would've perfected space travel of course they're smart." Connie says
"Well not everyone can be a rocket scientist, I mean we aren't right. Maybe it's the same for them." Steven says surprising Connie
"Heh, I guess you're right." Connie said smiling making Steven smile
"So, are aliens your thing or?" Steven asks
"Not just aliens, I'm completely into the Paranormal as well. I'm gonna be an investigator of all the unexplained mysteries of the world and beyond…... or I could be as long as it doesn't affect my grades or my extracurricular activities." Connie says
"Oh, cool you believe in Ghosts and Monsters to. I swear once when I woke up I night I saw eyes looking at me in my closet and when I woke up the next morning my socks were gone." Steven says
"I've heard about similar cases before, it's most likely a small level 1 roaming specter. They can only manifest small parts of themselves in dark areas and usually make mischief than be actual threats. The worst case I heard is about a guy losing all his teeth." Connie says
"OH WOW! How did you know that?" Steven asks amazed
"Just some friends I have online, we keep each other up to date on all the cool stuff. Like last night one of my cohorts found some strange disturbances from satellites over the U.S between 8 and 9 pm." Connie says
"Heh, ain't that something." Steven says nervously
"Anyway, what's your interest in aliens. Have you had a close encounter?" Connie asks with a smirk
"O-O-Oh well ya see." Steven says nervously until the door opened again
"Alright class due to a technical mix up our supposedly EXPERIENCED COMPUTER EXPERTS BOTCHED! We have been given another new student instead of the one who was supposed to be, and is late either way." Lazuli says
"What happens to them?" Steven asks
"I don't know they wander I guess or something. Anyway kid, come in and introduce yourself so I can finally get this class started." Lazuli says walking to her desk leaving the door open.
Steven smiled excited that another new kid was in this class, he managed to start a conversation with Connie and seemed to be going well. Maybe he could do it again he could make friends on his first day. But that smile soon fell as a weight filled his heart as he saw the silhouette behind the door. Then a Pink ballet shoe with a white poof at the end stepped out from behind it. Steven felt his eyes widen and his heart stop for a moment as he looked at what was before him. Pink now being Steven's size still with her hair that was twice the size of head, her pink skin, and Diamond Irises. She wore a Dark Pink shirt with the words 'I Love Earth' on it and a light pink skirt with a white trim that went to her knees. She smiled as she holds up a white and dark pink backpack with little nubs on the bottom.
"Hello friends, my name is Pinkamena Diamandis. But everyone calls me Pink Diamond or just Pink for short." The chibi Pink says with a smile as everyone looked at her like weirdo she was.
Steven almost broke out in a sweat when he saw Pink, everyone was looking at her. But Steven saw Connie was looking at her the most intently her finger raised and shaking, single eye twitching and mouth slightly open.
"As you can all clearly see I am a completely normal human worm baby, who has lived on this wonderful planet for… 12 years." Pink said taking a moment to think of the last part
"There is nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing you should find suspicious about me and there is no reason to look into my background or history. And if you do think there's suspicious about me YOUR WRONG AND YOU'RE A FILTHY LIAR!" Pink screams the last part pointing at everyone before her like a crazed maniac
This of course got a whole lot of looks at her, at which Pink realized being her hands back to her chest.
"Anyway, I'm normal, so just ignore me and we'll be fine. I hope we can all be friends." Pink says with a large toothy smile
"I just got all the characters here huh? Take the last seat next to star kid there." Lazuli says pointing to the desk right of Steven
Pink with her large smile takes her seat next the sweating Steven and the glaring Connie oblivious to both. Steven was trying not to lose his cool as he looked at Pink and felt Connie's eyes going past him and to Pink.
"Okay now that we've wasted enough time, we can finally get things started. Our first subject is… yes Pink?" Lazuli starts but stops with a groan seeing Pink raise her hand
"Yes, education giver, I have a question. Let's hypothetically say this planet was to be suddenly attacked by an alien armada, how prepared would humanity be…... TELL ME NOW!" Pink says growling the last part
"…. Right." Lazuli says annoyed ignoring the question making Pink frown
"So, who has pencils?" Lazuli asks as Steven and Connie are the only ones to raise their hands
"Do you have enough to share with everyone?" Lazuli asks as the two shake their heads no
Lapis slams her palm on the desk taking a deep breath before walking out of the room to retrieve pencils for her class. The room was left in silence with Steven nervously sitting between Pink and Connie.
"… okay I'm not the only one seeing this right." Connie says
"Hello their fellow child-human, my name is…." Pink starts turning to Connie
"Yeah, no stop that. You're an alien." Connie says blatantly almost making Steven gag on his own spit
"What are you talking about?" a random boy asks
"ARE YOU SERIOUS LOOK AT HER!" Connie yells pointing at Pink
"I have no idea what you're talking about, I am a normal 11 cycle old human." Pink says defensively
"You said 12 before." A girl says
"That's what I said 12. I am normal so why don't you be a pal and SHUT UP!" Pink yells the last part
"I will not shut up and you are not normal! Look at her freakish Pink skin and eyes, her irises are Diamond shaped nobody has that!" Connie says
"MY SKIN IS PERFECT YOU INSOLENT LITTLE… I have a skin and eye condition which I am very sensitive about. And my eyes are a Proud part of my organic heritage you DISGUSTING DIRT MUNCHER!" Pink says seething on her desk
"Oh, for the love of just give it up! That is the worst disguise I've ever seen, and I cosplayed at Familiar-Con last year! You just asked if the planet would be prepared for an invasion! Everyone heard her right, she's not normal!" Connie says pointing at Pink
"Yeah she isn't and neither are you!" a boy says making the other kids laugh which made Connie blush in embarrassment
"Connie maybe you should calm down for a bit." Steven says trying to stop her before she does something drastic
"Why don't you listen to the adorable Human-boy, who I never met before. You should sit down and shut that mouth of yours." Pink says sinisterly
"I WILL NOT! Steven you see it right! She's not human!" Connie says looking to Steven
"Oh w-w-well I think…." Steven stammered fiddling his thumbs as he looked between the two who were glaring at each other
Steven's eyes then wandered under Pink's desk and saw she had a watch like device on her wrist. Steven watched as she dragged her finger across it in a circle making it glow. His eyes then went to the window and the tree outside the building. He saw the leaves rustle and then 5 small red figures start to emerge. He almost let out a gasp as he saw the rubies in the tree looking like they were ready to jump into the class and attack. He was in full panic mode as he sat in the middle of this dangerous situation.
"Okay here we go, they aren't sharpened so deal with it." Lazuli says entering the class with a box
Connie immediately sat down politely once again hands on her desk, and Pink brought her finger in the opposite direction of her watch turning it off. Steven saw the rubies hide in the tree once more making him sigh in relief.
"Okay so English was supposed to be our first class, but since we've wasted so much time today, we'll just go to math. Pay attention." Lazuli says going to the chalkboard
"Um, Ms. Lazuli! I can't see past Pink's massive hair!" The boy sitting behind Pink says
"Tough luck kid I ain't a barber… well not anymore. Pay attention now." Lazuli says as she starts
Steven tried to focus but was mentally gone as he sat between the two girls who were glaring at each other. He slightly sunk in his seat as his first day got a little more chaotic.
"Enjoy our school's delicious food." Lazuli says sarcastically as the bell rings and the kids leave the classroom
Pink made sure she was the last the leave making her way out of the classroom with a peaceful smile on face. She made her way halfway down the hall coming to a door. And as she did a hand shot out and grabbed her by the arm. She let out a yelp as she pulled into an empty classroom.
"PINK WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Steven yells in a panic
"Oh hello, fellow human. How are you? I was just going to… um." Pink says trying to remember what it was
"Lunch." Steven says
"Lunch. That's it, just needed to remember, we said it at the same time so I knew it." Pink says
"Pink what-?" Steven tries asking
"Oh, by the way what is your name? Since we've never met before." Pink says
"Pink, we've met last night you know my name is Steven." He says
"Hello Steven nice to meet you." Pink says making Steven grunt in annoyance pinching the bridge of his nose
"Although perhaps I may seem familiar to you." Pink says smirk
"Pink it's you." Steven says
"As if we have met before one cold Earth night." Pink says
"Pink I know it's you." Steven says deadpanned
"Something so strange you could've sworn it was only a dream." Pink says trying to keep up the mystery
"It wasn't, it was last night. You landed on my front lawn." Steven says
"Behold! Your eyes do not deceive you it tis I! THE RADIANT PINK DIAMOND!" Pink says as with a flash of Pink she shape shifts to her normal form towering over Steven
"Oh-wow-what a surprise." Steven says feigning amazement
"Yes, yes your tiny human mind is reeling. But make it quick I have to-." Pink says as she turns only to hit her head on a light
"AAAAARGH! STUPID-HUMAN-BUILDING, WITH YOUR LOW CEILINGS AND HANGING LIGHTS! WHY IS EVERYTHING SO FREAKING SMALL!" Pink shrieks
"Because I've never met a human who's a big as you. I mean my mom might have to duck to enter this room, but still." Steven says as he takes Pink's hand pulling her down into a kneeling position
"Ah, whatever, this whole place is dumb anyway." Pink grumbles sitting on the floor before Steven
"Okay two things 1. You can shape shift? And 2. What are you doing here?" Steven asks
"Yes, one of the amazing skills my race possesses. We can bend our light construct bodies into any shape and size of our choosing. Allowing us to be masters of disguise and infiltration." Pink says as with another flash she transforms into her 'Human' form
"As for why I am here this is just phase 1 of my world conquests plans. I first must gather all the information I can on your world so I can begin forming my plans for takeover and how to properly cull the masses of this world to my reign." Pink says
"You want… to take over the world by going to middle school?" Steven says
"You said it was a place human go to learn about the world. Plus, my gems are doing their own research as well." Pink says
"Yeah I did say that. Though it may take a while for you to learn everything you want." Steven says scratching his head.
"Oh, I can wait as long as I need to." Pink says
"Hope so, also how did you end up in my class specifically?" Steven says
"Oh, we found your name in the registry saying you would be in that room. So, I moved the other guy and put myself there." Pink says
"Why?" Steven asks curiously
"Well… um…... well because… I-wanted-to see you… again." Pink says embarrassed blushing
"Awwwww~" Steven says blushing as well with a smile
"Y-y-yeah I mean you are my minion! You can help me better acquaint myself with this Middle School." Pink says
"Yeah, I'll help you, don't want you getting hurt or hurting somebody else. And on that point, why are those short angry people in the trees?" Steven asked pointing out the window
"The rubies are here for my protection. And to silence any humans who get in my way, like that annoying visor girl." Pink growls
"Yeah. You gotta tell them to leave." Steven says
"WHAT WHY?" Pink asks
"Pink you can't have a hit squad on call outside our class in a tree. What if somebody sees them?" Steven asks
"Oh, please they're highly trained soldiers, with centuries of experience. They aren't gonna get caught." Pink says with a laugh
Outside a school maintenance worker carried a ladder to a tree while whistling a tune. He sets up the Ladder on the tree and takes out some trimming tools. He continued to whistle as he scaled up the ladder with the leave trimmers. He then reaches the top and takes the trimmers getting ready to do his job. He then parted the leaves only to be greeted by a scowling Ruby. In a moment of pure surprise, he dropped his trimmers wide-eyed and silent. The Ruby then punched him in the face knocking him out and making him fall off the ladder onto the grass. The Ruby then retreated back into the tree pulling the ladder up as well.
"Yeah. You also can't go around attacking people!" Steven says
"Steven, I'm not gonna attack everyone. Just People who cross me, Like Dirt Muncher." Pink says simply
"Connie." Steven corrects
"I know what I said." Pink says seriously
"Okay, you two got off on the wrong foot. But I'm sure if you just sit and talk you two can become friends." Steven says optimistically
"No. Never. To the day my light leaves me gem. To the day the last star dies. And Beyond that. No." Pink says simply with narrowed eyes
"Okay then think about this pragmatically. Connie has a family, people who care about her, people who would worry if she suddenly vanished. So, worried they will call the police to try and find her." Steven reasons
"Po-leze?" Pink asks with a raised eyebrow
"They are humans who enforce the law. And a big law on Earth is that you don't hurt people. And if you break the law they'll come after you." Steven says in a warning like tone
"Pfffft, what do I a Diamond have to fear from some scrawny humans?" Pink says with a laugh
"Numbers." Steven says with a smirk
"What?" Pink asks with an annoyed look
"You have 5 of those little red guys, while the police have dozens and dozens of officers." Steven says as Pink looked slightly worried
"And you don't have to just worry about the police. There's also the FBI!" Steven says
"Wh-what's the FBI?" Pink asks worried
"The super police and they have even more guys than the regular police. And they always catch people who break the law!" Steven says pointing at Pink's nose
"What am I, supposed to do? I can't get caught!" Pink asks
"First don't hurt Connie…... don't hurt anyone. Tell your guys to get out of the tree, and back to wherever they came from. And if you are doing this infiltration thing, try to just fit in. Be nice and get close to some people, and try to be low key about it." Steven asks
"Okay then, any suggestions." Pink asks
"Okay then first the Shirt…... what is that?" Steven asks looking at Pink's 'I LOVE EARTH' Shirt
"What about it?" Pink asks
"I-It's just too much, it's to on the nose," Steven says making Pink examine herself
"…. Ugh, you know what you're right. I asked Pearl to be honest with me, she said it looks great. Of course, she did." Pink says with a sigh as her upper body flashes pink and the shirt is changed, it now having a light pink upside-down diamond.
"Okay that's good. I'll walk you through the rest of it as we go on, but we gotta get some lunch." Steven says as he starts to leave
"ALRIGHT!... What's Lunch?" Pink asks
The school's lunchroom was about what Steven expected loud, kinda cramped, and smelled funny. Still Steven walked into the main hall with a smile as he held his tray filled with what he guessed they called food here, again another thing he was expecting. He made his way down the aisle looking for a spot to sit amongst the tables. He could make out that certain cliques sticking together nerds, jocks, music, the usual. Steven found an open spot and rushed towards it, only to have another person take it immediately
"Um, hey could you scoot over a bit? I-." Steven said before everyone at the table glared at him making him back up
"Okay, Okay. New kid, means I don't have a table." Steven says as he walks away, until he notices an empty table
"Alright!" Steven says going to the table, many of the kids watching and whispering as he did
Steven made his way to the empty table and sat, the lunch room getting noticeably quieter as he did. Steven even swore he heard a gasp, but didn't pay it any mind as he sat down. He put his tray before him and took a spoonful of what he guessed was beans and prepared to eat.
"Yo." A voice said from behind stopping Steven in his tracks
Steven turned around to see a girl his height with wild purple hair which has a baseball cap over it. She had dark skin and black eyes, she wore tattered jeans and a loose T-shirt that said RUNT on it.
"Oh Hello, there." Steven says turning around
"I'm Amethyst." Amethyst says not breaking eye contact with Steven
"Oh well I'm Steven, nice to meet you." Steven says extending his hand to be shaken as everyone in the lunchroom was looking at them
"You're in my spot." Amethyst says
"Oh sorry." Steven says as he scoots to the side
"This whole table is my spot." Amethyst says seriously
"You…... have a whole table?" Steven asked curiously
"Yep, everyone knows this table belongs to me." Amethyst says sitting beside Steven with a malicious grin
"O-Oh well I am new here." Steven says nervously
"Yeah…. You smell new. You wanna know what happened to the last guy who tried taking my spot." Amethyst says with a sly and evil grin
"A-um…" Steven stammered nervously
"I broke his nose. Blood splattered everywhere, I got suspended, guy didn't come to school anymore." Amethyst says simply playing with a plastic fork
"Oh…... well… I guess I don't have to worry about you doing that to me." Steven says with a nervous smile
"And what's stopping me from clocking you right now?" Amethyst asked leaning in
"You…. Would…. Get blood all over your nice table." Steven says with a sheepish leaning back
There was a heavy silence that filled the lunch room as Amethyst stared down Steven. A sweat drop rolled down his forehead as he locked eyes with her.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You're alright Steve-O, call me Amy dude." Amethyst laughs patting him on the back
"Heh, alright. That was a nice joke you pulled, that was-that was really…... terrifying." Steven says honestly
"Heh heh, yeah, that wasn't a joke. Ya see all those whispering faces looking at ya right now." Amethyst says pointing out to the cafeteria and all the people who were looking at Steven and whispering
"I got a bit of a reputation and school, and the fact your sitting next to me and I didn't sock you means ya got a reputation to." Amethyst says smiling
"Is that a good reputation?" Steven asks
"Your gonna have to find out by yourself bro." Amethyst says with a laugh before eating her lunch
Steven gave a confused grunt as he looked at his new 'friend' eat the school lunch. He looked out to the lunchroom and saw that most had returned to their own activities with only a few looking back at him. Steven shrugs and get comfortable ready to eat his lunch
"STEVEN!" Connie yells slamming her food in front of him
"CONNIE!" Steven says happily
"Amethyst!" Amethyst says raising her spoon for a second but going back to eating
"So, who's your new friend?" Connie asks
"Oh, this is Amethyst…... Oh right! Amethyst you're not gonna punch Connie, right?" Steven asks
"Don't care, eating." Amethyst says between chews
"Wait was he gonna punch me?" Connie asks
"Well she said she isn't." Steven says
Connie was confused but sat across from Steven, trusting the boy. He had a genuineness to him that Connie found friendly and comforting. He meant what he said and what he said was nice.
"Steven there's something I wanna talk about." Connie says
"Oh, I do to." Steven says smiling
"Oh, you do? Then please go first." Connie says politely
"Well where are you from?" Steven asks
"Wh-what?" Connie asked surprised
"Where are you from? Now is a good time to get to know each other, I wanna know more about you." Steven asks with a smile
Connie stares at Steven once again surprised by the genuine niceness coming from him. She takes a moment to compose herself and then answers.
"Well I am new to town, my family had to move here cause my dad's a private security guard and my Mom's a Medical scientist." Connie says
"Cool I'm new in town to and my mom is also a scientist." Steven says enthusiastically
"Well ain't that convenient?" Amethyst says between chews
"What about you Amethyst you new too?" Steven asks
"Nope lived here all my life. As much as I would like to be a part of this exchange, I am super hungry." Amethyst says still chewing
Steven shrugs and continues
"Did you have friends in your old town?" Steven asks
"N-no, we move around a lot. I don't really…. Get the chance to." Connie says sheepishly
"Oh, will you be moving again soon?" Steven asks a little disappointed
"I don't think so, the place my mom is working really wanted her so she says this could be permanent residence." Connie says
"THAT'S GREAT!" Steven says happily nearly coming out of his seat
Connie yelped at his enthusiasm but smiled still happy that he was happy.
"What do you like to do, aside from reading Alien book?" Steven asks eagerly
"Oh well I also like reading Unfamiliar Familiar, I play tennis, I like watching Under the Knife." Connie listed
"YOU LIKE UNDER THE KNIFE TO?! HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEWEST THE EPISODE WHEN THEY HAD TO GET THE DIAMOND…!" Steven said excitedly
"OUT OF HIS BRAIN YEAH!" Connie replied happily and the two started to laugh
Amethyst continued to eat but smirked at the two
"Aren't you two a cute couple." Amethyst says smirking
"AH-WHA-?! A co-couple, w-w-we just met we can't…..." Steven stammered as Connie blushed
"…. Oh, Steven that reminds me, I wanted to talk to you about-." Connie says wanting to change the subject
"Oh my god! Check out the freak show." Amethyst says laughing looking away from the table
Steven didn't need to look up to know what Amethyst was talking about, but did anyway just to be sure. And as he predicted at the end of the aisle stood Pink holding a tray of food looking at it confused. None the less she took a deep breath and made her way down the aisle head held high trying to give off an air of superiority. Most of the students either gave her a passing glance or ignored her. Pink then made her way to the end of a table to a girl eating her meal, until she noticed Pink.
"I eat food! Just like you!" Pink says smiling holding out her tray
The girl gave her a look before scooting away from Pink. Pink gave a small frown, but continued on her way. She then stopped at a boy who was eating.
"I HAVE A STOMACH!" Pink yells in a shrill voice with wide eyes and a manic grin. The boy gagging on his food from the surprise
Pink clicked her tongue before locking eyes with Steven a smile growing on her face. She quickly made her way to Steven's table sitting across from him, shoving Connie a bit with no regard getting an annoyed grunt.
"Hello Steven." Pink says happily
"Hi Pink." Steven says equally happy
"Hello Squealing Flesh bag." Pink says with a sly grin and condescension in her voice, making Connie growl
"Hello Space-Girl." Connie says back making Pink's eye twitch
"And Hello… you." Pink says confused looking at the eating Amethyst
"Yeah, good old…... you…. Yoooooou~" Pink says as if she was buying time to think of something
"She wasn't in our class; you haven't met her. This is Amethyst." Steven says
"Oh, thank the stars!" Pink says relieved
"Sup, your hair looks funny." Amethyst says
"S-so does yours…... also, you look kinda familiar." Pink says looking at Amethyst with narrow eyes
"What she looks like your BFF, back on your home planet?" Connie says with a smirk
Pink grinds her teeth a bit with a strained laugh
"Well, despite your RUDENESS! I am so happy to join my fellow humans to be in this smelly hall to enjoy… this?" Pink says looking at her tray of food the smell making her nose twinge
"Those are beans, this is lunch time where humans eat food…... which I think this is." Connie says unsure looking it
"I KNOW WHAT FOOD IS MAYWEATHER!" Pink yells annoyed
"Maheswaran." Connie says
"Whatever. I know that organics, WHICH I AM! Need a constant intake of substances in order to keep functioning, WHICH I ALSO DO! And I have partaken in many delicacies." Pink says proudly
"Nobody talks like that." Connie says
"Oh, you've eaten stuff before." Steven asks smiling
"Totally and this just happens to be my favorite flavor, FREE!" Pink says taking the spoon and digging in to the food with a joyous expression
Pink took a spoonful of the beans and shoved it into her mouth without care. She chewed on them letting out a simple grunt as she did.
"Hm, not to bad…... Little rough… and there's a bit of a funny afterta-AAAAAAGRRH!" Pink starts calmly but then lets a pained scream her eyes nearly bulging out of her skull.
Connie and Steven looked on surprised leaning back bit as Pink slammed her head onto the table and fell backwards under it. The two humans looked at each other concerned as Pink pulled herself panting some of the beans still on her mouth.
"Wha-H-How can you put that in your bodies?!" Pink yells horrified
"Eh you get used to it." Amethyst says taking another spoonful as she chewed her body jerked a bit for a second as if she was just poisoned before going back to Normal and taking another spoonful.
Steven and Connie looked at Amethyst concerned and then to their trays. Both kids share a look before pushing their trays away.
"You know she's an alien, right?" Connie asks Amethyst leaning over
"So am I, my family from Chihuahua." Amethyst says simply
"DON'T LISTEN TO HER! I am a completely Normal human being like you with your flesh, various bodily juices and odors, and… other stuff." Pink says trying to be convincing
"You talk funny." Amethyst says
"You know, you're actually making consider that while there is life out there it's not intelligent." Connie says bored looking at Pink
"You know, I'm actually impressed you can keep your head up with that Massive Visor you have. Seriously it takes up ¾ of your face." Pink says with narrowed eyes
"These are prescription and to help me see." Connie says offended
"You need help to see? What are you defective?" Pink asks confused
"WHAT?!" Connie yells angered by what Pink said
"PINK?!" Steven says equally shocked
"WHAT?!" Pink says not understanding why she was being yelled at
BRING-BRING-BRING
The groups attention was brought to Amethyst who reached into her pocket and pulled out a phone. I was old and pretty beaten up looking, the screen cracked, wires sticking out, and there even being tape on it.
"Ah this stupid thing." Amethyst says shaking the phone
"Someone calling you?" Steven asks as Pink and Connie continue to stare each other down
"Probably not, this thing has been busted for months. I'd cover your ears if I were you, this things speaker is busted and it does this really annoying-." Amethyst starts but stop once it lets out a horrible high-pitched sound
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Steven and Connie immediately covered their ears with a hiss as Amethyst shook her broken phone and slammed it on the table to stop.
"Wow, that is annoying! You ever hear anything like that before-?" Steven went to ask Pink but stopped as he looked at her
"Ah, AH, AAAAAAAHHHHHHGRRRHHHAAGRH!" Pink yells as she holds her eyes her eyes going wide and apart
Steven, Connie, and Amethyst watched as Pink screamed holding her head and flailing in the seat kicking her legs. Steven got up from his seat worried for his friend as she fell back once again. Suddenly there was a massive pink flash followed by the sound of a CRACK. Worried Steven peered over the table slowly, followed by Connie and Amethyst. The all looked on shocked as Pink laid on the ground spread eagle breathing heavily. Though what drew their eyes was the massive what they can only describe as a crack going across her face pink light glowing from it. He chest rose and fell quickly as her left eye was milky white, looking like she was in a lot of pain.
"Dude, gnarly." Amethyst says surprised
"OH MY GOSH, PINK!" Steven yells terrified
"OH MY GOSH EVERYONE LOOK!" Connie yells joyously
This got everyone's attention as they looked to the table the three were at. Steven looked on in a panic knowing how bad this situation, Pink was going to get outed and who knows what would happen to her.
"I told you she wasn't human! Just look at this, that is not Normal!" Connie says pointing over the table as everyone approached
Steven's breath quickened as the people got closer and his mind raced a mile and second. He couldn't think of a way out.
"PINK, YO-!" Steven said looking over the table back at Pink only to find nothing, he looked up just in time to see the doors swing open after Pink ran through them. Everyone came just in time to see the same nothing Steven saw not noticing the doors
"You're Crazy." A student says as Connie gave an annoyed look
A few minutes later Steven left the lunchroom with an excuse to use the bathroom, though he was now scouring the halls for his new friend.
"Oh, I hope Pink is okay, she looked really hurt." Steven says
As he walked down the hall, he passed the janitors closet and a Pink hand shot out and grabbed him pulling him in with a yelp.
"Pink can you not yank so hard, it feels like your gonna pull my arm out of it's so-OH MY GOODNESS YOUR FACE!" Steven yelled terrified looking at Pink's face
The Diamond's face looked like a rock that was splitting open, she was sweating intensely looking like she was dying. Her left eye looking like a TV screen on the fritz as her pupil shook and crackled.
"St-Steeeven." Pink groaned like an undead
"PINK WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?! ARE YOU DYING?!" Steven yelled in panic looking at his friend
"S-sound from th-the purple girl's device. It's dis-dis-disrupted my f-f-form." Pink says holding her head as the crack got bigger
"OH MY GOSH-OH MY GOSH! Y-YOU NEED HELP! YOU NEED A DOCTOR! I'LL BRING YOU TO THE NURSES OFFICE!" Steven says trying to pull Pink
"N-No! C-c-can't be exposed. N-n-n-need you to h-h-help Spinel!" Pink stammers
"Spinel?" Steven asks
"HELLO!" Spinel yells happily her head popping up behind Pink
As expected, Steven jumped back and screamed his back hitting the door. As he did Pink's backpack unfurled revealing Spinel in full as she vaulted over Pink and landed before Steven as Joyous as ever.
"Your backpack can talk!?" Steven yelps
"I'm Spinel. Pink's Bestest Best Friend, EVER!" Spinel says with a happy pose
"Um, I'm Steven. Human and Pink's…... friend." Steven says
"Pink told me about you, it'll be so cool to have two friends now! The others don't like the games I do and I when I asked Sapphire to play hide and seek, she froze my feet to the ground. A cunning strategy." Spinel says
"So, you were disguised as Pink's backpack?" Steven asks
"Yep it was Pink's idea. She saw that all you little humans had those back thingies so she figured it would be a good idea to have one of her own. And Pearl thought it would be a good idea to have me around." Spinel says
"You were really quiet." Steven says surprised
"Oh, it's Pink's favorite game 'The Quiet Game'. I don't make a sound until she says I can and then I win! And I always win." Spinel says
"The-Quiet Game." Steven says surprised
"Yeah, it was something the other Diamonds played with her a lot and now we play it together." Spinel says
"Uhuh." Steven says with narrowed eyes
"H-head hurting, help me." Pink slurs trying to get their attention
The two turned to face Pink who was leaning against the wall. Steven looked on worried as Spinel happily jumped over to Pink.
"S-spinel, my head it's, it's-." Pink says gesturing her head
"It's Grotesque." Spinel says
"Yes, help me put myself back together." Pink asks
"Okie Dokie!" Spinel says with a salute
As soon as she did Spinel stretched out her arm wrapping it around Pink's forehead 4 times. Spinel then reached out for Steven who looked on surprised.
"Shake my hand, new best friend!" Spinel says wiggling her fingers
Steven hesitates but grabs onto Spinel's hands giving it a decent squeeze. Her hand felt like squeezing taffy squishy with some firmness.
"Now Pull." Spinel says as she pulls on her arm with Steven doing the same
The two pulled putting Pink's head in a vice, the monarch helping by using her hands to push the crack close. With enough effort the crack was closed, Pink then began to grunt and strain as the scar began to vanish is a Pink flash. Pink let out a gasp as it was finally sealed, Pink giving her head a few whacks so her eye became normal.
"Ah, well done the both of you." Pink says relieved touching her complete face
"That's what friends are for." Spinel says giving the thumbs up
"I'm just glad you're okay." Steven says
"Indeed, I'm gonna have to dispose of that weapon the purple girl has." Pink says
"Her name is Amethyst and it's not a weapon, it's a phone." Steven says
"Yeah whatever, Spinel let's go." Pink says pointing to her back
"Pink I'm glad you're okay, but we need to talk about Connie." Steven says
"What? Is she annoying you? You reconsidering my idea?" Pink asks
"No, about what you said to her earlier. That was very mean and you clearly offended her." Steven says
"What about being defective? If she needs those things to see, she clearly is. I mean you don't need help seeing and I haven't seen any other human needing help." Pink says
"There are plenty of people who wear glasses, they can't help it sometimes they were just born like that. You need to apologize to Connie." Steven says
"WHAT?! I am not apologizing to that mouthy little clod! Why should I care if I hurt her feelings?" Pink says defiant
"Pink, what you did affected her even if you didn't mean it. An apology is the least you can do, I mean how would you feel if someone called you defective?" Steven asks as Pink visibly flinches her eyes widening Spinel looking worried
"Don't you think it's wrong for someone to be made fun of just because they're different?" Steven asks as Pink's fists clenched and she bit her lower lip
"Pink. Buddy. I think you should say sorry." Spinel says taking her hand with a smile
Pink looks at Spinel and then to Steven. She lets out a sigh as she unclenches her fist and slouches a bit.
"Fine I'll…... I'll say sorry to her." Pink says defeated
"Thank you Pink." Steven says happily
"YAY! Can she be our new friend?" Spinel asks
"No! Now let's get out of here this place smells." Pink says as she opens the door
Later that Day
DING-DING-DING
"Okay everyone remember your homework and have a-." Lapis says as all the kids ran out of the classroom not paying her any mind
"Eh day." Lazuli says bored slumping in her chair
Lapis groans reaching in her desk and pulling out her phone and headphones. She scrolls through her phone and starts to put on her earbuds. Reaching into her pocket and pulling out a small container filled with gum
"Um, Ms. Lazuli." Steven says standing in front of the desk surprising the Teacher
"Oh… your still here?" Lazuli says very surprised
"I, um have some questions about the math we did today." Steven says nervously
"Can't you just look up videos online?" Lapis asks with a raised eyebrow
"I-I-I could, but I-um-I have-w-well-." Steven says nervously as he plays with his fingers not looking at Lapis
Lapis's face soften as she saw that Steven looked visibly nervous and upset biting his lower lip. Lapis let out a sigh as she sat up on her chair.
"Okay, Okay kid. What are you having trouble with?" Lapis asks
"…. IMSORRYIDONTUNDERSTANDALLTHISSTUFF! ITRIEDTOLISTENBUTYOUWEREGOING REALLY FASTANDITHINKIMISSEDSOMESTUFF! PLEASEDONTTHINKIMSTUPID!" Steven says in a hurry as he holds out the paper
"Whoa there! You're not stupid." Lapis says trying to calm him down
"W-why is math so hard! I always have trouble with it! It's the first day and I'm already flunking." Steven says upset looking down at the ground
"Listen…... Steven, I'm gonna let you in on a secret. Math SUCKS! It's needlessly complicated beyond the basics and most of this stuff has no function in the outside world. The only thing it's good for is confusing and upsetting kids like you." Lapis says leaning forward making Steven look up
"Trust me, you probably aren't the only one feeling like this right now, I bet you at least ¾ of the class are as just as confused as you are. But the difference between them is that you had the courage to come to me and ask for help." Lapis tries to reassure him
"Really?" Steven says with some hope in his eyes
"Yeah really! Now tell me exactly where I lost ya before I'll talk slower this time. Do you have anywhere to be? Are your parents coming to pick you up?" Lapis asks
"No, I'm walking home. And my dad won't be back till 4." Steven says sitting beside her and putting the paper on the desk
"Well that's more than enough time. Trust me, this is a lot easier than it looks." Lapis says
"Thank you so much for taking the time to help me." Steven says
"Hey I'm a teacher it's…. heh-what I'm here for." Lapis says with a small laugh realizing what she just said
As children flooded out of the school in a happy rush, Connie slowly plodded her way down the stairs grumbling to herself. She was conflicted, on one hand she befriended Steven and was happy to do so, the boy was very friendly and his optimism was infectious she couldn't help but smile when around him. On the other hand, she just met an alien and yet nobody could see that or believed her, not only that the alien was rude calling her names defective being something that hurt her to her core. She's been made fun of her glasses before on multiple occasions but defective was a new and very hurtful one for her. She fumed and growled thinking about it until a voice from behind got her attention.
"Hey." Pink says from behind
Connie kept walking
"Hey!" Pink says again
Connie walked faster
"HEY!" Pink yells
Connie walked faster
"HEY!" Pink yells louder
Connie was almost on her way to a full sprint
"HEY MALIWAN!" Pink says
"It's Maheswaran, you hibiscus looking jerk!" Connie yells turning around angrily
"Whatever. I have something to say to you." Pink says waving her off
"Well 'Whatever' it is I don't want to hear it. So why don't you jump in your space ship and…..." Connie yells turning around
"I'm sorry." Pink says gently
"… What?" Connie says turning back around
"What I said was during Lee-unch inconsiderate and ignorant and I am sorry." Pink says getting Connie's full attention
"I am a totally normal flesh human and I should know that…... I should know that you shouldn't make fun of people just cause they're different. It hurts, it hurts bad, feeling like you don't belong. Nobody deserves to feel like that…. S-So I swear on my Human life that I will never again intentionally or unintentionally take your physical differences and make them the object of ridicule. So…...there." Pink says standing up straight Connie looking at her surprised
"…D-do people make fun of you?" Connie asks curiously
"WH-WHAT?! NO! I'M FINE! I'M PERFECT, BY HUMAN STANDARDS! TOTALLY NORMAL AND FITTING THE MOLD! YEP I CAME OUT RIGHT! AND PEOPLE LOVE ME, AND TOTALLY DON'T TALK ABOUT ME BEHIND MY BACK! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Pink says in a panic laughing hysterically
"Right… well thank you I accept your apology." Connie says
"Good, now get out of my way." Pink says as she tries rushing past Connie down the street
Connie raised an eyebrow at Pink, there was something up with her. Connie knew she was alien, but her apology seemed genuine. And her reaction clearly showed that she was hiding some issues. Perhaps she was a refugee escaping an oppressive world, Connie needed to know more.
"Hey Pink wait up!" Connie yells running behind Pink
"I said sorry, what else do you want?" Pink grumbles annoyed
"Well as a normal human-." Connie says deciding to play along
"Finally, you get it!" Pink yells exhausted
"Mhm, so you live in town?" Connie asks
"Yes." Pink says as she keeps moving
"Where?" Connie asks
"None of your business." Pink replies
"Got any friends?" Connie asks
"Steven…... and many others you don't know about." Pink replies
"Got a family?" Connie asks
"Nnnnnnn-yyyyyyessss?" Pink says unsure
"Mother, Father, grandparents, siblings?" Connie asks
"Yeah, yeah sure got all that stuff." Pink says
"Are your parents employed?" Connie asks
"Yeah totally." Pink says
"What do they do?" Connie asks
"You ask a lot of questions; you think your entitled to answers." Pink says annoyed
"Hey, I'm just curious. I mean my mom's a medical scientist and my dad is a cop." Connie says
"A…... cop…... police?" Pink says stopping in her track's eyes widening
"Well he's not actually a cop, I just kinda say that. He's more like a private security guard." Connie says not paying attention to Pink's reaction
"As in the police with dozens and dozens of soldiers who look into strange happenings?! And if they are really bad call the FBI who have even greater numbers and always capture the things they're looking for!?" Pink says in a small panic
"Well I think this town has like maybe a dozen or so police tops and they can only call the FBI if-HEY!" Connie starts but stops upon noticing Pink in full sprint down the street running from her
Connie immediately takes off after Pink, but just as she left Steven exited the school with Ms. Lazuli by his side.
"Wow it really was that easy." Steven says amazed
"Yeah books make it look a lot harder than it actually is. But you gotta keep practicing with it that's the trick." Ms. Lazuli says
"Will do Ms. Lazuli." Steven says happily
"Hey Steven, outside of class you can call me Lapis." Lapis says with a calm smile
"Oh-okay, Ms. Lapis, See ya tomorrow." Steven says smiling as he leaves the school
"Yeah and you have a…...Nice day. Heh, Nice day." Lapis says with a laugh surprised by her own words as she re-enters the school
Pink breathed wildly as she ran down the sidewalk going past other students and their parents. A quick glance behind and she saw that Connie was chasing her, Pink let out a terrified yelp as she pushed passed a girl and ran to the crosswalk. Pink ended up stopping in the middle of the street looking for an escape route as a car screeched to a stop before her.
"HEY GET OUT OF THE ROAD! I COULD'VE HURT YA!" The man driving the car yelled
Pink looked at the car and then ran towards it. The driver yelped as Pink jumped onto the hood of the car and onto the roof. The driver watched as Pink scanned the area seeing Connie come at her. Pink then jumped off of the roof of the car onto the hood of the car behind it. Pink then leapt from that back onto the sidewalk and continued to run.
"WHY ARE YOU RUNNING!" Connie yelled as she chased after
"I'M NOT RUNNING! YOUR RUNNING! I'M JUST JOGGING, NORMAL HUMAN JOGGING! LEAVE ME ALONE!" Pink screams as she passes a trash can
Acting on instinct Pink grabbed onto the trash can and lifted it up, unaware that it was bolted to the ground. She easily pulled it out of the concrete taking some of the sidewalk with it and then threw it at Connie. Connie screams in terror as she sees the metal can flying at her, though she luckily ducks at the right time letting it fly overhead and crash into the side of a parked car. Connie looked in shock at the car before looking at Pink who ran again, taking a moment to gather herself Connie continued the chase.
Pink panted as she weaved through the people trying to get away. Connie was behind but saw that Pink was incredibly fast and didn't seem to be slowing down. She knew she couldn't keep up with her for long. Just then a jingle filled the air and Connie turned her head to see an Ice Cream Truck. Pink continued to run a smile coming across her face as she felt that she was getting away. Then she heard the jingle and turned her head to see the Ice Cream truck and Connie riding on the back of it.
"AYAGAH!" Pink yells as she flails and turns a random direction down a street
But she unknowingly turned down a dead end, before her was a bar fence blocking her path. Connie had just jumped off the truck and continued to chase Pink, thinking she had Pink cornered. But Pink did not slow down as she ran full speed to the fence.
"Try catching me now idiot!" Pink yells as she jumps towards the fence
Connie watched as Pink's body glowed lightly and started to slim. Her body was now thin enough for her body to slip through the bars. And she did…. Halfway till her gem got stuck between bars. Pink yelped as her upper half was on one side of the fence with her lower half on the other side.
"St-stupid thin bars!" Pink yells as kicks her legs
"Wha-how did you do that? Is that a Diamond?" Connie says astonished as she looks at the trapped Pink reaching for the gemstone
"DON'T TOUCH ME! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE! I WILL BE THE RULER OF THE PITIFUL DIRTBALL! I AM AN CONQUEROR AND DEMNAD TO BE TREATED WITH RESPECT!" Pink shrieks angrily
"….. Did you say conqueror?" Connie asked
"… You didn't hear that." Pink says realizing what just came out of her mouth
"It's an Invasion. You're an Invader! I knew it! You just said your here to take over the Earth! And you said it in front of every-!" Connie says ecstatic as she turns around only to see no one was there
"Oh there's no one here." Connie says disappointed
Just then Pink kicked Connie in the face sending the girl to the ground. Just as Connie picked herself up Pink reached for the bars and then pried them open allowing her gem to get through. Connie followed the hole being big enough for her to get through. Pink continued to run down the alley with Connie hot on her trail.
"SPINEL! HELP ME! WE NEED TO GET BACK TO BASE NOW!' Pink yells
"Gotcha buddy!" Spinel says as her arms unravel around Pink
Spinel wiggled her fingers a bit before her arms stretched out and reach to grab onto the roof of a building. Connie was surprised once again as she saw Pink's backpack come to life, but then watched as like a slingshot Pink was shot screaming into the air. Pink soared high into the sky and flailed as bit as she started to slow down. Pink then reached into her hair and pulled out her disk once again and formed a bubble in the center. Pink grabbed onto the bubble as she rocketed towards the ground. She landed on a house yard creating a small crater before being launched into the air again with a SPROING. Pink screamed as she held onto her bouncer and spun in the air as she came back down to the earth again.
In an alley a teen with orange hair and a purple donut shirt just threw trash into a dumpster. He was about to walk away until he heard screaming. He turned around just in time to see a Pink blur crash into the dumpster with a large BOOM. The teen fell onto his rear as the wheels on the dumpster flew off and it crashed into the ground. The teen picked himself up just as a Pink fist crashed through the side of the dumpster. Another Pink hand came out and pried open a hole letting trash spill out along with a small Pink child. Pink panted and breathed hard as she stumbled out of the dumpster and leaned against the wall trying to gather her senses.
"Y-huff-You saw nothing!" Pink panted as she ran past the shocked teen
Pink ran breathlessly upon the Beach before she finally came up to the three houses collapsing on the sand.
"I-huff-I did it! I made it! AHA! Take that Con-e! Thinking you could capture a diamond!" Pink yells happily as she kneeled in the sand
"So that was a Diamond?" Connie says
"AAAAAH! How'd you get here so fast?" Pink yells scrambling to her back
"I took a shortcut. Now your gonna tell me what your plan is before I-!" Connie says threateningly pointing as Pink until Pink grabs a handful of sand and throws it at Connie's face
As Connie yelped wiping the sand from her glasses Pink got up and ran towards the house on the right of Steven's. She ran up the stairs and opened the front door. Pink ran inside as Connie followed and locked the door behind her.
"YOU OPEN THIS DOOR RIGHT NOW!" Connie yells slamming on the screen door
"I don't have to do anything you say! Get lost, I win! VICTORY FOR PINK!" Pink yells through a window as she sticks her tongue out at Connie
"WOW! That was fun!" Spinel says appearing behind Pink
"Spinel not in front of the flesh bag." Pink says pushing Spinel back down
"You think you've won? That this is over? It's far from over. I don't know what you're planning, but I'm not gonna let a jerk like you take over the world! I'll stop whatever you have planned and then I'll expose you to the world! AND THEN-!" Connie yells
"Hey Connie, Hey Pink!" Steven says as he makes his way up the stairs of his house
"Steven?" Connie and Pink says confused
"What are you doing here?" Steven asks looking at the two
"I-well-I…... wait a minute…. I live here." Connie says taking a moment to look at where she was
"WHAT?!" Pink yells
"Oh really?" Steven says amazed
"Yeah I live right there." Connie says pointing to the house on the left from Steven's
"Wow looks like were neighbors, Hey Pink are you living in that house? When did you move in?" Steven asks
"Um-last night." Pink says
"I moved in last night." Connie says shocked
"Ain't that a coincidence, me to. Must've been asleep when you both came in. Wow all of us living so close together. It's almost like, Fate or something, though my mom doesn't believe in fate." Steven says as the two girls were in shock of their current situation
"Well I'd love to chat, but I got some math exercises to do. We all should totally hang out together, see you guys later." Steven says smiling as he walks inside his home
"I-we're-same class-how…. I'm going to lay down." Connie says defeated as she walks down the stairs of Pink's home onto the Beach and to her own
"Y-yeah you better run! That's right retreat for you are no match against my might!" Pink yells pushing her face against the glass as Connie walked
"Shut up." Connie says exhausted
"YOU SHUT UP!" Pink yells back angrily
"Hey Mom, it's me Steven. I know your busy, so I'm sending this to let you know how I'm doing. My first day was… interesting. I made three whole friends today, on the first day. They are a little weird, but I can tell they're good at heart. There's this girl named Amethyst who is super tough, but is kinda chill about…. Everything. And there's Connie's she's really smart and is into Aliens and ghosts and stuff, I think you'd like her if you meet her. And finally, Pink, probably the weirdest and also my first new friend. She…... thinks highly of herself and has really, really… really big dreams. I think she might be a little insecure and is trying to overcompensate, but I didn't ask and even if I did, I don't think she would answer. She tries to act mean, but is kinda goofy and she's like if I was trying to act like an adult. Also, I don't know why but…... she kinda reminds me of you, it's just a weird feeling ya know. But she is like Super new to everything, so I'm gonna try to do my best to show her around. She and Connie got odd on the wrong foot, but I think if they sit down and talk, they could be friends. Anyway, you probably got super cool science stuff to do, I hope we can see each other again soon. I love you mom." Steven says into a phone before hanging up and petting his cat
"Connie's Log #1, I have started to record these logs because I am on a mission. I have discovered and alien is living in my town and plans to try to take over the world. I will keep notes on everything I learn about this creature and my attempts to stop its conquest. It calls itself Pink and has the ability to shapeshift taking on a human…...esque appearance and can alter its body in many ways. She is incredibly strong and fast, seemingly having limitless stamina, she is my physical superior in every way. However, her intelligence seems to be somewhat lacking, that will be my way to victory. I will continue to update the more I learn…. also, as a reminder ask Mom if it would be possible to explore more of the town on the weekend, it could be a chance to hang out with Steven a little more. Okay end of log." Connie speaks into a tape recorder before shutting it off and focusing on her work.
"Earth Conquest log Day 1, my infiltration of Earth went of perfectly as expected. No one suspects my true origins…... except for Connie, but she's dumb… And Steven, but he's a minion. Oh yeah, I also successfully coaxed a human onto my side, first try and success. He will be instrumental in my understanding of human society in order to better disguise myself, plus he's like Super nice. Anyway, once I am fully integrated into human society, I will begin my conquest of the miserable dirtball!" Pink say into a small device as she sits on a throne
"Wow, how are we gonna do that?" Spinel says peaking from behind the Pink throne
"Oh-well-I d-don't know. But I'll think of something, one step at a time!" Pink says
"My Diamond, if you want, I have some suggestions." Peridot says standing beneath her
"Peridot if I want your suggestions I'll ask. Just focus on getting us this Wi-Fi and Cable, humans can't seem to live without it and we must know what secrets it has. None of these flesh bags will know what hit them, soon all will bow before PINK DIAMOND AND HER COURT! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Pink started to laugh maniacally
"My Diamond we have returned and we have brought you an Earth Device." The commander Ruby said as she held up a ladder
"Watch your step." Sapphire says walking past
Before Ruby could question why she said that Ruby foot got caught in a wire and she fell forward extending the ladder. As Pink leaned over her throne to see what was going on the top of the ladder hit her head and she fell off the throne onto the ground. The rubies came in and started to check on Pink as Pearl walked by into a dark section of the room. She pulled out the glowing device once she was sure she was hidden and activated.
"I require an update Pearl, how is Pink doing?" Yellow says appearing on the screen
"Pink is in good spirits; recent developments have really livened her mood." Pearl says
"What developments?" Yellow asks with a raised eyebrow
"Well Pink found a planet and…..." Pearl started but stopped when she heard Pink
"Of course, I'm fine, don't worry your little red head. Just today I crashed into a weird smelling receptacle after being chased by a human. Not only that they had some strange noise weapon that nearly exposed me, but I was able to get away." Pink says
"You've must've been terrified my diamond." The leg ruby says
"TERRIFIED, HA! That was the most excitement I've had in the last 57 cycles, today was awesome. I can't wait for tomorrow!" Pink says happily a huge smile on her face which Pearl saw and felt her eyes sparkling for a moment
"PEARL! What developments, you said something about a planet?" Yellow asks annoyed
"Oh well the planet… we full of the air spouts that launched Pink into the air she had fun jumping in them. She wasn't hurt." Pearl says screaming internally as she realized she was lying to a Diamond
"And is the planet suitable for colonization?" Yellow asks
"No, my Diamond." Pearl lies again internally banging her head against the wall
"Well as long as Pink isn't bored, good job Pearl keep her happy and keep us updated." Yellow says as the device shut off
Pearl leaned against the wall and slid down with a groan hiding the device as her mind ran with what she had just done. It was in the spur of the moment. She didn't know why she did it.\
"Keep her happy." Pearl groans curling up
"Pearl what are you doing down there." Pink says finding Pearl
"Oh-I was-um-." Pearl stammers
"Whatever come on I got a story to tell about this Earth School." Pink says as she gently picks up the surprised Pearl and carries her to the others
"Now check this out, these humans have to learn how to do math not only that it's like level 1. It's freaking hilarious!" Pink says as she sits Pearl next to Spinel and sits on the ground
"Um, my Diamond. Don't you want to be up there?" Pearl says pointing to her throne
"Wha, nah! It's cool here, besides I wanna see you guys reactions to what I got. And it's just us here, no need to be formal." Pink says
"B-but you're a Diamond and were your court and-." Pearl says panicked
"Pearl my court is like 9 gems, not a thousand. It's not like Yellow and Blue are gonna shatter you for not bowing they're not here. It's just gonna be us for a while and we might as well get comfy as we take over this world." Pink says relaxed as Pearl looked at her wide eyed
"But I am still your Diamond, so not to relaxed okay." Pink says sitting up with a rather goofy grin
"Yes, My Diamond." Pearl says with a calm smile giggling a little
"Heh, you have a cute giggle." Pink says
"And you have a radiant smile my Diamond. I think you're going to be a great ruler someday." Pearl says smiling
"O-oh wow…... thank you Pearl." Pink says genuinely happy
"Hey I wanna ask what're we supposed to do with this?" Sapphire asks pointing to the ladder
"Study it of course, based on earlier it's obviously some kind of weapon." Pink says as Pearl's mind wanders off
"Keep her happy, I'll keep her happy." Pearl thinks happily as Pink goes off on the ladder
(Invader Pink Opening-Invader Zim theme song)
A massive group of gems stands before a stage and the flag of the Diamond authority before saluting.
Pink jumps onto the stage presenting herself with a huge smile before the gems, just as three massive shadows loom over her.
Pink looks up at the shadows of Yellow, Blue, and White who looks at her curiously as Pink gives them a smile Spinel popping up behind and waving
Yellow and Blue look at each other worried as White smiles reaching down and picking up Pink dropping her onto her leg ship.
Pink falls into the ship and it takes off sprinting before leaping into the air and vanishing with a twinkle, the ship then quickly appears over Earth.
From the ship a pink object is shot out towards the planet, the object crashes on a beach and from the Crater Pink shadow emerges with an evil grin with other shadows backing her as crystals and wires emerge from the ground
Spinel is then shown frantically running towards the screen with a smile on her face before smashing into it causing it to shatter.
Finally, Steven is shown on a table kicking his legs casually as Pearl scans him with a device and Peridot looks at screens showing his body and vitals.
A ruined Beach City is shown with fire spreading and crystals coming out of the ground as thousands of people start to kneel and bow their heads. They are shown to be bowing to Pink's Leg ship which stands proudly on the Beach, panning up to show Pink on top laughing manically over her Colony with Steven by her side.
Pan out to show that this was all in Pink's head as she is standing in the playground in her human disguise. Steven is shaking Pink's shoulder trying to get her out of her fantasy, but finally jumps out of the way as a dodge ball comes flying. It hits Pink square in face making her flip and land on her face with an annoyed groan
INVADER PINK
(Note: Here we are the End of theBeginning for INVADER PINK. For this series I hope to post a bunch of individual stories instead of putting them all in one place. Maybe some will be single chapter, others will be multi-chapter, depennds on the content I'm writing. Still I hope to bring more of the is AU, because it is a lot of fun. And if you enjoyed this story and have ideas for this AU, please leave a review I will reply ASAP. Till next time. ;)
