A/N: Well, here's chapter two! This fanfiction will be uploaded every Thursday. I hope you enjoyed the first chapter. Started off on a rough start but I'm slowly getting to where I want this to go. I don't own any of the characters except the one I created.
The gems and Steven walk to where the living room is. The green gem looks around in confusion as she sat on the couch. She carefully poked at the cloth as the other gems sat on the floor around her, like children ready for story time.
"Well, I'm not really sure where to start," the gem began, "I'm an Emerald, if you couldn't tell by the color. Obviously you know my kind. It's true I don't look like most of the others, but you guys are outcasts too so I guess you can't judge. You know of the Emeralds' place in the rebellion, but I wasn't one of them. I was Rose Quartz's emerald. She confided in me. She treated me differently than the other Emerald's were treated. She told me of her plans… of her… studies…"
At this the Emerald looked around at all of the Crystal Gems. "She told me of some sort of perma fusion that she had obtained. Of some, runt-like Amethyst. And of a Pearl who didn't listen profusely to her owner. It was all very intriguing. I offered to help her cause, but she refused. She didn't want an Emerald to get into it and destroy her own kind. To destroy anyone. I accepted her refusal. But…" Emerald closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Anyway, when we won the rebellion the remaining crystal gems celebrated, myself included. Rose came to me and gave me a 'hug' as she called it the first time. We talked and we both decided that since the risk of me corrupting would have disastrous effects, she would bubble me and bring me out when she needs someone else to talk to. Every few years she would come to me and tell me the sights of the world, of the greatness of humans. I met a few, but one made more of an impression. One by the name of Greg Universe.
He seemed like a cool guy, and I liked his style. So I decided to adapt to the humans and dress like they did one of the last times I was privileged to see a movie. Plus it makes me look different. That's always a perk. The last time she let me out however, she was talking of some sort of experiment. But honestly I can't remember the details. But I wasn't let out for fourteen years, so I never knew how it turned out. And now the temple is a home and Rose has given herself up for a boy. Neato." The gem finishes as Pearl clenches her fist.
"How can you speak of her so fondly? How couldn't she have told us about you? Why did she keep her secrets?" she started yelling, but Steven put his hand on hers and she quieted. "Well, I'm glad to have met one of mom's friends. Would you like to stay here for a while?" The young child asked as Garnett and Pearl look at one another with caution.
