What It Means To Be (Rewritten)

by AmberDBoss

SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN HIT THE DIAMOND: What if instead of 5 Rubies coming out of the Tracking Vessel, a completely different type of gem came out, looking for a gem she was separated from over 5000 years ago? Who is she looking for? Will she find her? Or will she find someone else she thought died 5000 years ago? Or will you pass up the opportunity to read this story?

4. Chapter 4

Hey Guys! Welcome to WIMTB! As you may or may not know, Steven Floats has been leaked on youtube and Dailymotion, so you might want to check it out! Now this chapter is continuing after Barn Mates only the ship was inactive and no gems came out, so it is NOT in the past like Ch.2/3. You can find Barn Mates and Hit the Diamond on dailymotion. And as always, Thanks to: Thenordic5forever96, Nightshade1712, NightmareOnElmStreetFan, X-x-The-all-seeing-eye-xX and RandomWriter197.

Peridot's POV:

"Wow, thanks!" I said as I smiled at Steven. He bought me a new tape recorder because Lazuli broke mine. "Log Date, 7957. Steven bought me a new tape recorder because Lazuli broke my old one I gave to her. I still don't completely understand why. Maybe she was a little mad about before on the ship. I am very sorry but she just won't listen. She is probably still getting used to Earth. I can understand that. Faucet 5, end log."

"You know I can hear every single word you say, right?" I heard Lazuli say. "And the reason I broke your tape recorder is because you keep acting like I'm overreacting. I don't know if I'll ever want to be friends with you after what you did to me." She said. Then Lazuli flew off to who-knows-where. That was fine with me.

Lapis' POV:

I couldn't believe she still thought that she could just say sorry half-heartedly and give me some garbage to make up for taking me prisoner and doing everything she could to break me for information! She thinks we're the same, but we're really not! I was so glad I had this secret hiding place where no one can disturb me-

"Hey, Lazuli!" A loud voice yelled.

-or not.

"Come quick! It's Steven! He's gone! We can't find him!" She yelled again. "The permi-fusion told me to come get you!" I hurried and flew down.

"What do you mean he's gone!" I asked in a panic.

"Well, the permi-fusion asked me if I had seen Steven, and I hadn't. She told me to get you to help look for Steven." Peridot explained. "Let's go." We walked by the barn. It was fixed. Outside was the tracking vessel, which had not move since I had hit it with my water hand. Maybe the 'pool' Peridot and Steven made me wasn't so useless.

"So Peridot, about yesterday," I sighed "I'm sorry I snapped at you. And broke your tape recorder. And ignored you. And told you to leave. If you still want to, we can live together in the barn. What do you say, Peri?" I asked smiling. She blushed a little, and nodded her head. Then, I tripped and fell. Peridot offered a hand to help me up. I accepted, and then she did something unexpected. She kissed me on the lips.
