Welcome to chapter 1 of Two Sides of the Same Coin. The way this is going to go is that I'm not going to rewrite the whole series I have not patience to do that so I'm just rewrite a few episodes in each season to completion. Also I know have another excuse for Dimensions crossed to take so long LOL jk. No anyway let's get started.
" Wow, everything has changed since I've been gone," Michael said as they approached Beach City.
" Well of course it did, you've been gone for 5 years now," Pearl said matter of factly.
" Well even so, I wonder if the Big Donut is still around."
" The what?"
" The Big Donut, it's a donut place that I would go to with a group of old friends, who knows maybe we'll run into them."
As the three made their way into town, Michael noticed a kid exit the donut shop and made his way to the beach. He looked to have a cooler or something on his back.
" Hmmm, I wonder what that's about, you two want anything," Michael asked his two gems.
" No I'm fine," Pearl responded
" What do they have," Jasper replied.
" Donuts, Hotdogs in donut, Various other pastries and sweets."
" I guess some donuts."
Michael made his way in and took a look. In the way of inventory it's changed a lot, but in the way of appearance it feels like it hasn't changed since he left. He approached the counter and was greeted by a couple of teens that looked about his age. He looked at the girl's name tag and it read ' Sadie '
" Hey, your last name wouldn't have to be Miller is it?"
" Yes it is how do you know?"
" I thought so, I know it's been a long while, but it's me Michael, Michael Runic."
" No way, it is, it's really you, you've been gone so long, we've missed you so much," Sadie exclaimed as she ran from behind the counter to give him a hug, " you remember Lars right?"
" You think I would be able to forget someone who didn't care i was gone but in fact missed me the whole entire time, yeah I do."
" What can we getcha today Michael?"
" A half a dozen donut, half regular glazed and half chocolate iced, did you guys stop selling Cookie Cats?"
" Yeah we did, kinda sad really, a kid by the name of Steven Universe came in and kinda cute really this kid loved them, he'd come in and get a couple, they weren't selling anyway so we didn't mind so we let him take the freezer home with him, here's your donuts Michael, we should all get back together again and hang out."
" that would be awesome, hey where does the kid live, I just wanted to meet the kid, besides the name Universe sounds familiar anyway."
" Oh, he lives down the beach, you go down the edge of the beach and see a small house with a huge statue that's it."
" Okay, thanks Sadie, see ya later."
" Bye Michael."
So he left and told the gems what he found out. So the group made their way down the beach, while Michael and Jasper ate on the donuts they heard a roar. They ran to way the noise came from and they saw a huge monster surrounded by a few small figures.
" Jasper launch me," he order
" Are you sure Michael," Jasper question.
" Yes I'm sure, Throw me right at it."
Jasper grabbed Michael and preformed a spin dash and launch him right at it. As he approached it he notice it spewed some sort of acid he summoned his shield.
" BEEP BEEP, COMING THROUGH," Michael yelled as he crashed right into the monster right before Steven throw a melted freezer at it cause it it be electrocuted and poofed. Michael got up and desanded himself.
Pearl and Jasper came running over, " My stars Michael are you alright," Pearl said then turning to Jasper she said " you brute you could've hurt him."
" But I didn't though so calm your gemstone," Jasper said shrugging it off.
Michael was walking back over when the others seem to have snapped back to the reality after what just happened.
" Wow that was so cool how you crashed right into it," Steven said with stars in his eyes then noticing his shield before it disappeared, " Oh that's so cool so have a shield too."
The others come over weapons are the ready, not knowing what they just witness, Michael only recognized a couple of them, the two being An Amethyst and a Pearl. The tall one with gauntlets came up to them.
" That was impressive attack, allow us to introduce ourselves I am Garnet and this is Amethyst and Pearl, and here on Earth we are known as the Crystal Gems, a group of rebels that protect this planet from the corrupted gems that exist here, now who do you happen to be?"
" And I'm Steven" the youngster said before Michael replied.
" it's good to meet you gems, I'm Michael Runic and this Pearl and Jasper, they were friends of my mother, you see I'm half-gem, my mom being Pink Spinel," Michael told the gems waiting for one of them to say something about it ' Looks like I'm in the clear…. For now'
" Hmmm, I dont remember any Spinel that Rose could know," R. Pearl asked thinking why he looked familiar, " Where did you live Michael?"
" Oh I lived with my father till I started high school, then he had me move in with with my aunt and uncle who he asked to take care of me."
" I see, well it's a pleasure to meet you Michael and thank you for your assistance today and we hope we see more of you in the coming days."
" Actually I wanted to know if you had some open positions on your little rebel squad, I mean of course you don't know mind?"
" Cool with me."
" I have no objection,"
" Garnet are sure, I mean we just met them, what if their trouble and they take over the temple?"
" I see no future in where that is a possibility, besides who knows what could happen, we could use so help, besides we can take up more missions and round up more corrupted gems."
" I guess so, alright I'm in."
" Thank you, we really appreciate it."
With the choice made Michael and his gem companions were greeted into to the Crystal Gems, quite funny really joining up with a group of rebels that poofed his mother, but he had no intentions of betraying them and contacting Homeworld. As the rest made it into the house took the Pearl that was associated with Rose Quartz aside and talked with her.
" You know who I really am don't you Pearl," Michael asked her knowing he was right.
" I beg your pardon, I've never met you before today I'm sorry."
" Please don't lie to me, I saw a picture of you and my mother in her old room on the Gem Homeworld."
" What do you mean her old room I never was a Spinel's Pearl unless," she thought for a moment and clasped her hands to her mouth, " Oh. My. Stars. You're Pink Diamond's son but that's impossible."
" How so because Steven is here as well, I know that Rose and Pink are the same gem, but somehow their personalies were seperated from each other, but it's too soon for Steven to know of this so don't worry I'll keep your secret."
" Thank you Michael,"
" No need, let's just focus on the days ahead alright."
" Ok."
And with that they returned to the home for the day in which they had actually prepared a bed for him. Jasper and Amethyst were hanging out her room in the temple, Garnet was leaning on the counter, while Steven was sitting on his bed playing a game while his Pearl was walking around taking a look of everything.
She had already placed his luggage by the makeshift bed. He opened his suitcase and got some pajamas. Then opened his duffle bag and got some books out of it and sat on his bed and started reading. Thus ended the first day of a spiral of chaos in the Gem/Universe home.
End of chapter
Just so you don't get lost on which gem is which

Well chapter 1 is done and I think this is going just along greatly. I'm going to jump between this and Dimensions Crossed working on a chapter of each that's just I won't get stuck on either. So until then I'll see you guys in the next chapter.
