Hello everyone and welcome to chapter two of my fanfiction. First of I wanna thank everyone for the reviews, follows and favs like I said I was scared to do this originally as I thought no one would like my work. But I'm no longer scared now as I know some people like my work. I know there will be some who don't and might try to put me down but hey If every pork chop were perfect we wouldn't have hot dogs :). Well enough of that heres chapter two.


In the very northern part of California there was a small town known as "Beach City." From an outsider's point of view, it just seems like your typical town by the beach, a board walk with some restaurants and attractions, some business's like a gas station a car wash and the mayor's office. So other then the beach, not a lot to write home about, maybe a good place to vacation for a while but nothing special.

However, if you lived in beach city "normal" would be the LAST word used to describe this town by the ocean. For at the very western side of the beach there was an odd statue and a giant, two faced, eight armed women with a bunch of curly hair. At the very bottom of the statue sat a small wooden house which (other then the giant statue above it) seemed normal. However, inside the house laid a temple (well a door that leads to a temple) and the inhabitants of the house are what truly made Beach City special as they were known as…The Crystal Gems.


First there was Garnet the leader of the team. Garnet was a cool-headed mono toned gem who was quite the strong silent type. She was also quite tall with a square afro and spiked shapes with the colors blue and red on them, they also hid her three eyes'. on her body she had pink and red markings which resembled a star, she also had a lot of pink, red and black around her body and in her palms, were gem stones. On her left hand was a gem stone that resembled a ruby and on her right a gem that looked like a sapphire on her right, however despite looking like said gem stones they were both the same color.

Secondly there's pearl. Another tall gem (inches shorter then garnet) with peach hair, a pointy nose, blue eyes and big oval pearl in her forehead. She struck and elegant appearance with a sky-blue top with a star in the middle, a sky-blue skirt with a sash around her waist with amber leggings, pink socks and a pair of blue slip on ballet shoes. Along with her elegant appearance pearl was a bit of a neat freak and had a stern and over protecting attitude, often overreacting to the smallest of things like using her spear to get something off an area she wanted to be symmetrical.

Then there was Amethyst a short, purple gem with long light purple hair covering her left eye. She's tied for being the shortest crystal gem (being just a few feet tall), she wore an oversized, off shouldered black tank top (much to Pearl's annoyance), a black bra, black leggings with stars on the knees and white boots. She's very carefree not really caring how things go and usually does things without think and rushing into fights her mess's. She's also very stubborn as when she's able to get something for herself she usually just does what she what she wants with it not caring or thinking of the consequences (once again to Pearls annoyance).

Lastly there's Steven Universe who's a bit of an oddball in the gems. Unlike the others Steven is a boy AND a human. He wears a dark pink shirt with a star in the middle, blue jeans and pink sandals. His hair is also in the shape of a rose however most people confuse it for a small black afro. He's a very nice and generous boy often trying to make friends with everyone and everything he meets. However, there's more to this boy then meets the eye. For where ones naval would usually be he had a pink gem stone, a Rose Quartz. Steven is both half human AND half gem gaining it from his mother who had to die in order give birth to him. Although he still doesn't have hang of his powers (being able to summon his shield in desperate situations only so far and his healing spit being…finicky) he doesn't let it get him down as he tries to make the most out of each day as possible. In fact, the young gem is currently doing that right now.

"Hey Pearl I'm going out for a while." The young gem told his guardian. "Oh, and where are you heading off to?" She asked. "I'm going to the car wash to hang out with my dad. After the whole incident with Lapis and his broken foot and my healing spit I realized I haven't been spending as much time with as we both would look to, so I'm going to try and hang out with him more."

"Oooooh well just make sure to not bring him back…again…ever." The tall gem replied nervously as she remembered the whole ordeal with Greg just two day's ago." This gained a confused expression from Steven who simply shrugged it off as he knew Pearl and Greg had a…complicated relationship after the stuff with his mom went down. "Um ok. Tell Garnet and Amethyst I said bye." He told Pearl as he went out the screen door to head towards the car wash.

However, before he ran to the car wash he stopped to pet his pet, a pink lion named...Lion. "Hey Lion want to head to head to the car wash to hang out with my dad?" The young boy asked as his lion simple opened one eye to look at him before closing it again and rolling over as he rather continue his nap then go hang out with his master's father. "Aw you're just a big sleeping pile of cotton candy. Well suit yourself see ya later Lion." The young gem told his feline pet as he began running toward the car wash.


Greg Universe was the name of Steven's father and he couldn't ask for a better life. Sure, he worked at and owned just a simple car wash a lived in a van, but he was happy. He had an amazing son who loved him as much as Greg loved him, He ways always able to support his son and keep him well feed and happy, and he always looked on the bright side of things as his catchphrase "If every porkchop were perfect, we wouldn't have hot dogs" implied. Honestly even 10 million $ wouldn't improve his life all too much if you asked him. As for appearance he was rather sloppy looking, with a wait tee shirt, ripped blue jeans and tan lines on his body. He was had extremely long light brown hair however none of it was on his forehead. Currently he was washing a car that had a paint job to look like a pizza that was owned by an old Asian man until he heard someone calling his name.

"DAAAAAAD IM COMING FOR YA!" Steven yelled playfully as he was running towards his dad as he tackled him with a big hug. "hey there shtoo-ball what's going on?" Greg asked happily as he look down at his son who was hugging him. "nothing much just thought I'd come hang out with my favorite dad." Steven happily answered as he looked up at his dad with a big smile. "Sure buddy I'd love to hang-"Greg told Steven before he was loudly interrupted. "GREG WHAT ABOUT MY CAR! I need it to deliver pizzas and I cannot deliver pizzas with a filthy car!" The Asian man told Greg. "Sorry Kofi. Sorry Steven can ya wait till I'm done?" Greg asked his son. "Sure, dad in fact why don't I help you." Steven offered. "Sure, buddy that'd be a big help, just grab a sponge and start scrubbing the glass." Greg told his son.


After about 15 minutes of washing the pizza car Kofi thanked Greg and Steven and gave his pay to Greg. "So, since were done with that can we hang out now?" Steven asked his father. " while we were washing that car, I remembered I gotta close up early I got something important I'm working on, sorry buddy." He told Steven with sad tone as Stevens smile disappeared. "Ah man I was really looking forward to spending time with you today." Steven claimed sadly.

"Hehe now what brought this up?" Greg asked his son with a small chuckle. "Well its just, after the whole thing with your leg and my spit I realized, we aren't spending as much time with each other as either of us wanted to so, I thought I'd mix that and start hanging out with you more often." Steven explained. "aw how'd I get some lucky with you? Although know that I think about maybe we can spend time with each other the project I'm helping with is down and were just making minor adjustments."

The smile returned to Steven's face "I'm great with minor adjustments." He claimed while jumping up and down in excitement. "Well then your perfect for this job buddy." Greg told his son. "So that's this project about dad?" Steven asked his father. "Well…I was going to keep this a surprise but since your helping me I suppose can tell you. I'm helping build a house by the beach about the opposite side of the temple, a big family's and the man moving with his family is an old pal of mine from college, his name is Lynn Loud."

Steven thought about what his dad just told him "wait didn't you drop out of college?" Steven asked his dad as he remembered his dad told him he dropped out of college to become a one-man band while traveling the U.S. "Well I was there for about a year and a half before I dropped out. But while I was there Lynn was pretty much my best friend, we were actually in a band together and he rocked the cow bell unfortunately our jerky band leader kicked him out because he didn't think he was 'good' enough but I quit as he was kicked out, no way I was gonna be in a band without my best friend." Greg explained. "Wow dad that was really cool of you I can't wait to meet him, hey maybe we can start a band together? Also, you said he was part of a big family how big exactly, six people, seven people?" Steven asked.

"hehe try thirteen people shtuu-ball." Greg told his son as Steven gave out a loud gasp "THIRTEEN PEOPLE HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?" Steven asked his dad excitedly as he couldn't wait to befriend all the new people moving in. "That's exactly what I asked. Apparently, him and his wife Rita have been pretty busy hehe, because out of those thirteen people, eleven of them are there kids." Greg explained to Steven as had stars in his eyes at imagining all the new people coming. "Wow dad that's amazing how many of them are girls and how many are boys?" Steven asked. "Well I didn't get any specifics just that he had eleven children so he's gonna be asking for a big house, so the city board started building and as seeing as how he was and still is my friend I'm helping at the house he's moving into and it's almost done, just making minor adjustments to make sure everything is 100%. In fact, they should be here within three or four days." Greg told his son as he was beaming with excitement and anticipation. "If that's the case ill defiantly help you dad this is gonna be great, Beach city's population is gonna almost double!" Steven claimed excitedly.

Greg was happy seeing Steven so excited over meeting his old friend's family and hoped they would like him. "Hey dad before I help you with this is it ok if I call Connie and tell her the news." Steven asked his dad with buddy dog eyes. "You can put the eye's away son." Greg replied with a chuckle. "This was really a surprise for you, so you can tell her. I'll be in the driver's seat, come on in when your ready." Greg told his son as he went to his van and got in.


MEAN WHILE AT THE MAHESWARAN HOUSE.

A Long haired dark-skinned girl was playing violin on a fancy looking couch as the phone rang which caused her to stop playing. "I'll get it Connie." A woman in her late thirty's that looked like an older version of Connie told her. This was Connie's mother Priyanka Maheswaran a traveling doctor which made it, so her family had to move quite often (thankfully they were in Beach City for a good long time). The woman picked up the phone and spoke to the person on the other line "Hello this is the Maheswaran residence, this is Mrs:Maheswaran what do you want, and make it quick?" She sternly asked the person on the other line. "Oh, hello Steven." The doctor greeted which got Connie's attention. Connie's usually has a hard time making friends, however of everyone she knew Steven Universe was her absolute best friend (and although she wouldn't admit it she had a bit of a crush on the half gem).

"Connie it's for you" Connie's mother told her daughter as she ran up to her mother as she handed her daughter the home phone. "Hey Steven, what's up? No, I don't know the big news, what's happening? Oh, a new family is moving in. Wait…HOW MANY PEOPLE!" Connie responded as she was talking to Steven. "Connie no yelling in the house!" her mother demanded. "Sorry mom." She apologized. "So, wait two parents and eleven kids are you sure?" Connie continued to talk to Steven as her mother over heard the conversation. 'wow that women's been through A LOT' Priyanka thought to herself. In the other room Connie continued her phone call with Steven. "Wow that is a big family where di you hear about this? Your dad huh, well do you know when they are coming? Three or four days huh wow this is gonna be crazy. Sure, I'd loved to go meet them with you, man I haven't heard of a family that big in a long time."

Connie told Steven as she remembered spending first grade in Royal Woods Michigan as her mother worked at a hospital in Hurley at the time. She recalled being able to make a friend with bucked teeth white haired boy who she went to the same school with. She remembered the boy telling her that he had 6 sisters, 5 older and 1 younger. Including the parents, it was a family of nine people. However due to her extremely shy nature (more so at the time) She never meet them as she was two scarred to come over to his house.

"Well that was good to hear Steven ill see ya later I got Violin practice right now, but I'll definitely come with you to meet them, since its summer I almost always have free time. Ok sounds great talk to you later." Connie said goodbye as she hung up the phone. She walked into the living room and sat on the couch and saw her mother on a sofa chair reading a newspaper. She was about to pick up her violin and start playing again when something came to her. She looked at her mother and asked, "Hey mom can I ask you something." The mother put down the paper and looked at her daughter with eye contact "Yes Connie of course you can." The mother told her daughter as she waited for the question.

"Do you remember a boy named…Lincoln Loud?"
