As Steven and Yellow Pearl were walking to the Yellow Diamond Control Room, Steven had a question and he couldn't keep it in.
"Pearl?" he asked slightly sad.
"Yes, Steven?" she asked in a slighly nervous voice.
"Do you guys ever wish that my mom never gave birth to me?" he said not hiding his sadness.
"Steven!" Yellow Pearl exclaimed. "Don't you ever think that we wish you weren't here," she said as sweet as possible.
"Okay," Steven said with a little more hapiness in his tone.
It wasn't long before they came to the door of the control room. Yellow Pearl told Steven to stand back so she could open the door. Once Steven had done what he was told Yellow Pearl's gem started to glow and activated a gem on the door to open it.
The two walked in both equaly nervous. In front of them was Yellow Diamond's control chiar.
"We're here as you requested," Yellow Pearl said with as much confidence as she could gather.
Yellow Diamond turned her head slowly to see Steven and Yellow Pearl right behind her. She smiled slightly and asked Steven to come closer. Steven ran up to the side of the giant chair. Yellow Diamond lowered her gigantic hand down to the floor allowing Steven to step on to be raised up. Yellow Diamond rose Steven up and placed him in the armrest of the chair.
Yellow Diamond showed a bright smile for seeing Steven.
"You know Steven, you get bigger every time I see you. You're going to make a great diamond some day," Yellow Diamond said with great pride.
Stven started to blush as soon as this was said.
"Aww. You're buttering me up," he said shyly.
"Anyway," Yellow Diamond said to get to the point. "You remember when you told me that you wanted to go to Earth?"
"Yeah?" Steven said a little confused.
"Well, I have a group of gems heading out to Earth tomorrow. I think you should go with them," Yellow Diamond said with a grin growing on her face.
"Really? You're letting me go to Earth?" Steven said excited but still unbelieving.
"Yes, Steven. That planet needs help, and I think that you are best suited for the job," she said placing her hand on Steven's head.
"Oh, I forgot to ask," Steven said remembering. "Who am I going with?"
"You will be going with a Peridot, Jasper, Lapis Lazuli, and an informant," she said.
"My Peridot, Jasper, and Lapis?" he asked getting more excited.
"Yes, Steven," she called down.
"What about the informent?" Steven asked.
"What about her?" Yellow Diamond replied.
"Who is she? What does she know?" Steven asked getting more anxious.
"She is another Lapis Lazuli, and we have reason to believe that she has spent time with the rebels," Yellow Diamond explained.
"Whoah, cool. Two Lapis Lazulis in one trip!" Steven called.
"Be careful around her, Steven" Yellow Diamond informed.
"Why?" Steven asked. "She's just one Lapis and my Lapis and Jasper will be there to protect me," he said a litgek confused.
"This particular gem has hydrokinesis. She can control any amounts of water from miles away," she told hoping to get through to him.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. I won't let you down!" Steven cried more excited than ever while jumping off of the control chair.
Steven landed with a thump on the floor.
Yellow Diamond looked down with a worried expression.
"Steven, are you alright?" she asked a little alarmed.
"I'm okay!" he called getting back up to his feet and ran out the control room door.
Once the door closed, Yellow Pearl looked over at Yellow Diamond with a confused expression.
"You are seriously letting him go to that dangerous planet?" Yellow Pearl asked more confused than ever. "You bearly let him out of your sight, but now your letting him leave Homeworld? Why did you all of a suden change your mind?" she asked getting more tense.
"He deserves to see his original home before it's gone for good," Yellow Diamond said very soft.
"No luck with the other missions? But we've already sent nearly 150 flask robinoids!" Yellow Pearl exclaimed.
"They have all been destroyed and we'll have no chance of saving the Earth if this mission fails," Yellow Diamond explained as calm as possible.
Yellow Pearl understood and left the control room.
Once the door closed, Yellow Diamond looked back where Steven wasn't standing anymore as a single tear fell down her cheek
