A/N: It's the begging of the second arc! I should warn this arc will add quite a few characters... But I don't think many people won't mind... either way enjoy the arc.

Chapter 11: Make it a Home

As the sun began to rise, Lapis was finally abele to stand up and walk, she decided to leave the house for a bit.

She did she saw that Hinata was standing on water and doing her usual chakra control exercise with the water.

She couldn't help but to stare at her.

Hinata eventually noticed.

She waved at Lapis Lazuli. Hinata decided to take a break from training to get opt know the blue gem.

"Hi…" said Hinata.

"Hi." Said Lapis Lazuli, "So you can control water?"

Hinata shook her head no.

"I only know how to manipulate for a Chakra Control exercise." She explained, "Back on my home planet we can use energy called Chakra to do things."

"I see." Said Lapis Lazuli.

"So what's you're weapon?" asked Hinata, she then blushed, "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to."

"I don't have one." Said Lapis Lazuli.

"You don't." said Hinata.

That was when Lapis summoned her wings.

"I have these" said Lapis Lazuli.

"That's amazing." Said Hinata.

"Why was your weapon?" asked Lapis Lazuli when she banished her wings.

She summoned her kunai, "It's more a backup since my specialty is hand to hand." Said Hinata.

"I see." Said Lapis Lazuli.

That was when the door to the beach house opened.

"Is Mira up yet?" asked Steven.

"I don't know…" said Hinata.

"I'm up." Said Mirajane leaving the Forest Fairy and she was joined by Nami.

"All right! Breakfast!" cheered Steven.

Mirajane started making breakfast, with pancakes.

"Do you want anything Lapis?" asked Mirajane.

"No thanks." Said Lapis Lazuli.

As Mirajane was making break, Amethyst entered.

"All right! Pancake!" she cheered.

"This is out morning traditional after they joined." Steven explained to Lapis Lazuli.

"Hey, I was wondering how you know a Princess exactly?" Amethyst asked to Nami, "It's been bugging me all night. "

"I guess I should tell you, it all started when we got to the grand line, we were blocked by a giant whale." Nami began the story.

The story lasted the whole breakfast.

"And that's how we first met Robin…" finished Nami.

"I wasn't expecting that kind of princess." Admitted Amethyst.

Nami laughed.

Steven looked sad for some reason.

"Is something wrong?" asked Nami.

"I can't believe Laboon's friends would abandon him." Said Steven.

"I said everyone thought they did, we later found out what happened to the crew." sad Nami.

"They died didn't they?" asked Amethyst.

"They did." Sighed Nami, "But one of them came back to life…"

"As a zombie?" asked Steven.

"No… as a skeleton." Said Nami with a smile.

"Wait! You don't mean?" asked Steven.

"Brook was the lone survivor, that's why he joined." Said Nami, "Because of Luffy's promise to Laboon."

Lapis was quiet as she took in the story.

"Is something wrong?" asked Hinata.

"No." said Lapis Lazuli.

"Oh Lapis do you want to go shopping later?" asked Mirajane.

"Why?" asked Lapis Lazuli.

"We should buy you some stuff for your new room." Said Mirajane.

"Oh no thanks." Said Lapis Lazuli, "I mean I don't like to sleep… so…"

"You just want a blank room?" asked Steven.

Lapis blinked when he said that.

"It's understand if she don't want a bed, but you should at least make the room all your own." Said Mirajane.

"Well…" said Lapis Lazuli, "Okay."

"So what do you think you'll want?" asked Hinata.

"I don't know…" said Lapis Lazuli, "Well besides no mirrors."

"Well we can figure it out today." Said Mirajane.

"Can I come?" asked Steven.

"That's probably for the best." Said Lapis Lazuli.

"Hey Nami." Said Amethyst.

"Yeah?" asked Nami.

"Ronaldo." Said Amethyst.

"Oh come!" said Nami.

Nami grabbed the broom and began to chase off the blogger.

"You have to get used to him trying to break in." said Mirajane.

Meanwhile in a field, many miles away from Beach City, Peridot and Jasper waited for the Gem Ship.

"When are they going to get hewer?" muttered Jasper.

"I don't know." Said Peridot, "It might even be days…"

That was when an area began to ripple, the ripple seems to take shape until a Gem Ship in the shape of a foot appeared.

"Stealth ship." Said Jasper.

"From what I heard much of the mission involved stealth." Said Peridot.

The Foot Ship landed and opened up. Suddenly a green blur shot out and stopped at Peridot. It was Amazonite.

"OH WOW!" said Amazonite, "You're hair! It's so pointy! How do you do it?"

Amazonite began to poke Peridot's hair.

"Stop that." Said Peridot.

Before Amazonite could say anything else she saw a bird "Ooooh! Bird!"

She began to chase it.

"Is she the one?" asked Jasper.

"No…" muttered Peridot.

"Well, well, well is it Peri." Said Eudialyte showing up.

"Eudialyte." Muttered Peridot.

"Peri, Peri, Peri." Said Eudialyte, "What was the reason again why you came to earth again? Oh that's right… It's because it was easy… and look at all these problems… Maxixe had to bail you out…"

"Project Conversion has it's problems too!" yelled Peridot.

"It does, but to be fair, we're dealing with planets where the humans evolved amazing abilities…" said Eudialyte, "This is plain old Earth, sure it has a bloody history, but that's it really… they can't use magic, they can't wield chakra and I don't even think they know how to tap into Haki… face it, you screwed up an easy job, what I got is one of the hardest."

Peridot was steaming in anger.

"Eudialyte…" said Danburite showing them in, "Lead them in."

"Fine…" muttered Eudialyte.

"Amazonite! We are leaving!" called out Danburite.

"Okay!" said Amazonite.

The three led Jasper and Peridot into the ship where it once again vanished before flying off.

Back in Beach City, The three conversion Gems, Lapis Lazuli and Steven began to explore the stores nearby, they were now at a tourist shop.

"There certainly a lot of stores that sells sea animal things." Said Mirajane.

"That's the kind of stores they have in these area." Said Steven.

"It is a tourist sea side town." Said Hinata.

Lapis was looking at a painting of whales.

"You like that?" asked Steven.

"Yeah." Answered Lapis Lazuli.

"Wait… I just realized something… how are we going to pay for it?" asked Nami.

There was an awkward silence.

"I'm all out of money after the tangerine tree." Said Steven.

"Wait I have an idea." Said Mirajane.

Back on the foot ship, Jasper and Peridot were led to the control room of the ship. Maxixe was there waiting for them.

"It's quite an honor to meet you Jasper." Said Maxixe she turned to the white gem, "Danburite, set a course for Homeworld."

"What!" yelled Jasper.

"Sorry, but the moment those three stepped on foot on Earth it's now under my jurisdiction." Said Maxixe.

She even brought up a screen to show Jasper the order.

"Signed by Yellow Diamond herself." Said Maxixe.

It was Jasper's turn to get angry.

"Do you really think I'm just going to lay down and take it?" asked Jasper.

"Girls… show them your work." Said Maxixe.

"Very well I will go first." Said Danburite.

There were images of shots of boats as well a globe of the planet.

"The planet I was assigned to watch over is very particular, it has various sentient species besides humans, however we decided to just leave it at humans to keep it simple. it has a human population despite it's interesting landmass..." explained Danburite, "Because of that many people are a type of Sea Fearers. Most of them pirates or marines though there are a few interesting other factions as well."

"So they go on ships…" muttered Jasper, "What's the big deal?"

"The "big deal" are three factors…" said Danburite.

She showed footage of humans fighting, all of them used strange abilities.

"These people have eaten Devil Fruits, strange almost mystical fruits that gives humans and other animals special powers." Said Danburite.

It then switched to people using doing strange things to their bodies, easily dodging attacks in one causing people to faint by just standing there.

"Then there is Haki, the humans found a way to harness will power itself to supplement their own abilities." Explained Danburite, "But that is just the tip of the Iceberg…"

That was when the screens shifted to many ships, just bombing one island… and laying waste to it.

"This is the Buster Call, which I fear is the biggest threat to any Kindergarten that will; pop up." Said Danburite, "Hypothetically if we set up a Kindergarten on and island in the middle of nowhere and the World Government finds it, that is what they will do to the entire island."

"Nami is one of only a handful of non-Marines to survive it." Said Maxixe, "That is why she's valuable, so who wants to go next?"

"Ooh, ooh! Pick me!" said Amazonite.

"All right Amazonite you go." Said Maxixe.

"Yay!" cheered Amazonite ass footage of ninjas fighting played, "Okay, so there's this energy thingy called Chakra that the humans there can use and it gives them awesome powers like controlling water and fire and lighting and transforming and creating balls of swirling energy! Also there's super ninjas that these specials abilities called Kekkai Genkai and the ninja that was turned into White Moonstone is one of them."

Jasper and Peridot looked at each other.

"There's also giant demons called Biju… but I'm not going to in that right now!" said Amazonite, "Now any questions?"

"How were you picked for this mission?" asked Peridot with her eye twitching.

"I'm really good at stealth." Explained Amazonite.

Jasper and Peridot stared at Amazonite who had the biggest smile on her face.

"She has that effect on everyone." Said Maxixe with a sly smile, "But yes, White Moonstone has amazing abilities, which is why she was chosen…"

"Looks like it's my turn." Said Eudialyte.

That was when the footage switched to various monster and large animals

"While humans are common, only a small fraction of animals are those that are common on other planets." Explained Eudialyte.

The footage then switched back to magic user.

"10 percent of the human population can also magic." Explained Eudialyte, "In fact Milky Quartz also known The Demon is one that is very powerful… however… she's no longer in her prime."

That was when the footage sifted to various other strong magic users.

"That's not all, there's the various kinds of powerful magic known as Lost Magic…" explained Eudialyte as the footage shifted to various magic users (which included Natsu, Gajeel and Wendy), "But that's not all!"

That was when the footage shifted 8 Mages. One of them was Makarov.

"These are known at the 10 Wizard Saints…" said Eudialyte, "The 10 strongest legal Mages… and of course there are others are just as strong, if not, stronger than even that…"

"Why are there less than 10?" asked Peridot realizing something was up..

"My information is three years old, at the time, when I gathered it two of them had just lost their positions." Explained Eudialyte.

Both Peridot and Jasper watched the footage, in disbelief of the powers that were on display.

"How can humans have such power!" yelled Jasper.

That was when the footage shifted to fights from all three planets.

"You're so used to Earth humans…" said Maxixe, "We've studied these planets for years, we knew what we were getting into…"

"We can not let you get involved in this, both of you have no idea what we are dealing with." Said Danburite.

"How do you think you're going to handle them?" asked Jasper.

"You got your butt kicked but the Demon… and you were a fusion at the time no less." Said Eudialyte, "you have no right to say that."

"You lost control of those three." Pointed out Peridot.

"We did… but there's something we should show you." Said Maxixe.

Back in Beach City, at Fish Stew Pizza two men were looking at the menu.

That was when their waitress brought them water.

"Have you made your choice yet?" asked the waitress who was Mirajane in her human form.

"Are you new?" asked one of the men.

"Oh I'm just working for a couple hours." Said Mirajane.

The two men blushed.

"So have you decided?" asked Mirajane.

"No… not yes…" said the other man.

"Okay, take you time." Said Mirajane.

One of them took a picture of her and sent it online.

At the counter Steven and Nami were talking to Kiki.

"Thanks for letting Mira work here." Said Steven.

"It's fine… she's actually taking part of Jenny's shift." Said Kiki.

Hinata and Lapis Lazuli were waiting outside.

"You don't have to wait with me." Said Lapis.

"It's okay, it's fine." Said Hinata.

The reason why Lapis couldn't come in was that she didn't wear any shoes.

"I'm going to have to buy shoes." Said Lapis Lazuli.

"You are…" sighed Hinata.

Back on the foot ship, the four led Jasper and Peridot to the room. In side were 6 capsules.

"What are these?" asked Peridot.

"Our back up plan." Said Maxixe.

"Once we get back to Homeworld we'll implement it." Said Eudialyte.

Peridot saw what was inside of the capsules.

"I take it you have a plan for this." Muttered Peridot.

"We learned from our initial mistake." Said Maxixe, "We won't make the same mistake."

"Which was?" asked Jasper seeing what was inside the capsules as well.

"Assuming that they would just agree to join us." Said Maxixe, "We will fix that mistake no matter what."

"Because you know what happens when you assume things." Said Amazonite.

"Do not say that." said Danburite.

"Oh…" said Amazonite.

Jasper's eyes twitched.

"She's excellent on stealth missions, trust me." Said Maxixe.

Back on earth, Hinata and Lapis Lazuli still sat outside of Fish Stew Pizza which was getting more and more crowded.

"Looks like work is spreading about Mira." Said Hinata.

"yeah…" said Lapis Lazuli.

Hinata looked at Lapis Lazuli.

"Lapis." Said Hinata, "Is something wrong?"

"You've been helping to protect this planet… why?" she asked.

"Because it's the right thing to do." Said Hinata.

Lapis Lazuli looked at Hinata.

"This place is my new home." Said Hinata, "And I want to protect it."

"So a new home…" whispered Lapis Lazuli, "But this planet…"

"I know… I've heard about how you were trapped in that mirror." Said Hinata.

Lapis Lazuli was very quiet, "They didn't help me once."

"But they didn't know if they could trust you." Said Hinata.

"What would you know?" asked Lapis Lazuli.

"They weren't sure when we arrived, for all they knew were a trap." Said Hinata, "A trap lower their guard then take them back to home world."

"What changed their minds?" asked Lapis Lasik.

"You can't make up our friends." Said Hinata, "For example you remember how Mirajane mentioned Juvia."

Lapis Lazuli remembering that she reminded Mirajane of her.

"Well… the truth is Juvia's known for being a crazy stalker." Said Hinata.

"What?" asked Lapis Lazuli.

"And the person she stalks, Gray… he's a habit of stripping off his clothes with out realizing it." Said Hinata.

"You're making that up." Said Lapis Lazuli.

"And my cousin… he's normal." Said Hinata, "But his teacher Guy and his teammate Lee… both of them have bowl cuts, where green spandex and orange leg warmers and constantly talk about the flames of youth…"

Lapis Lazuli's eye twitched.

"Let's not forgot Tghat one of Nami's crew mates is a walking, talking skeleton." Said Hinata.

"Oh right… the one that was friends with Laboon." Said Lapis Lazuli remembering the story from that morning.

"And that's only give people we knew…" said Hinata.

"There's more?" asked Lapis Lazuli.

Hinata nodded.

"I think I'm begging to get why they trust you…" said Lapis Lazuli.

"I understand if you can't trust them, it's natural." Said Hinata, "It will take a while for you to earn each other's trust…"

Lapis Lazuli sighed.

"I'm sure it will be fine one day." Said Hinata.

"Yeah." Lapis Lazuli once again.

"Do you want to hear more about some of the ninjas of my village." Said Hinata decided to cheer her up, "For example our current is a noxious gambler known as the Legendary Sucker…"

"What?" asked Laius Lazuli.

Hinata began to tell her about a few other ninjas she knew that were… interesting…

Back on the Gem Ship, Maxixe decided to interview Jasper about the fight.

"So Citrine and White Moonstone fused." Said Maxixe, "I would have thought none of would ever do it… I guess they embraced their gem hood a little more than I thought, thank you for telling me…"

Maxixe began to walk away.

"Get back here!" yelled Jasper.

"What?" asked Maxixe turning around.

"I don't care about any of this!" yelled Jasper.

"You're still going on about this?" asked Maxixe, "You mission is on hold… look I'll try to leave the Rose's group alone, but I make no promises, after all my new team might take them out with no Problems…"

Jasper was about to summon her crash helmet, however Maxixe snapped her fingers and Jasper got an electric shock.

"Why you…" muttered Jasper.

"You just tried to attack me on my own ship." Said Maxixe, "If I wanted to I can lock you up for that! But I don't want to."

"You little…" muttered Jasper recovering from the shock.

"We might be two different types of gems but to be honest you're beneath me." Said Maxixe.

"What?" asked Jasper.

"You might be a strong warrior buy you're no where near you're game here." Said Maxixe, "This isn't a war on brawn but rather brains. I'd trust Peridot with this mission instead of you…"

Jasper glared at her.

"When this all over how about you fight all of them as poof…" said Maxixe, "Then again you couldn't stand up against one and a fusion… face by the time this is over you're going to obsolete."

Jasper began to shake as Maxixe walked away.

"By the way, you have strike one against you, attack me two more time trust me you're going to miss me going easy on you." She said not even turning around.

Back on earth outside of Fish Stew Pizza they heard a bunch of groans.

"Looks like Mira's done." Said Hinata.

The three that went in, were now walking out with Nami counting the money Mirajane made on tips alone.

"You're lucky Mira that word spread so fast." Said Nami, "And they want you back, this will be great."

"Hey Nami whatever happened to those gold coins?" asked Steven suddenly remembering them.

"Um… what gold coins?" asked Nami.

Mirajane and Hinata both glared at Nami.

"Never mind that let's go shooed shopping!" said Nami, "Since Lapis needs them!"

Nami grabbed Lapis Lazuli's arm and headed to find a shoe store so she wouldn't be denied service again.

Back on the Gem Ship Jasper went into the control room where Peridot was helping Danburite.

"What happened to you?" asked Peridot.

"Nothing." Muttered Jasper.

"Do not lie, you tried to attack Maxixe." Said Danburite.

Jasper glared at Danburite.

"You are on her ship that she has hard wired to obey her every command." Said Danburite, "What did you think will happen?"

Jasper was quiet.

"Remember our job is much more dangerous than yours Earth." Said Danburite, "She might be arrogant when it comes to this, but understand she has worked on this project for many years and these three planets that are extremely difficult to invade are a higher priority than Earth."

Jasper glared at Danburite.

"But remember this, there is a chance that her arrogance is blinding her." Said Danburite, "Her plans always forgets one minor factor that all Gems seem to forget about."

"What factor?" asked Jasper.

"I will not tell you… you do not understand it." Said Danburite.

Jasper glared at Danburite.

"It is not wise to attack me, it will count as strike two." Said Danburite, "Although if you wish you may use another room to fight my weapon if you want to get out your anger."

"What's that supposed to mean?" asked Jasper.

"If you do not know what my weapon is then it is your loss." Said Danburite.

Jasper blinked.

"Oh Giant Cheeto! I've been looking all over for you!" yelled Amazonite showing up.

"What did you call me!" yelled Jasper.

"How about you two go play." Said Danburite, "It would be the best idea."

"Really! Yay!" cheered Amazonite.

Amazonite pulled on Jasper's hair.

"Bet you can't catch me!" teased Amazonite who ran away.

"Why you little…" cursed Jasper.

Peridot watched the two leave.

"How old is she?" asked Peridot.

"You do not want to know." Answered Danburite, "But it is true, she is excellent with stealth missions."

"It won't get her in trouble if she gets her hands on her." Said Peridot.

"If does, Maxixe will know that Amazonite did start it." Said Danburite, "But as I jut said, stealth missions…"

Peridot shrugged.

Sometime later in Beach City they went back to the store with the Whale Painting, of course Lapis Lazuli was now wearing a comfortable pair of shoes.

"So what else should we get." Said Mirajane.

"Oh I have a nice idea!" said Steven, "Let's go to the pet store!"

"Why?" asked Lapis Lazuli.

"We can get you some fish for pets! And you can create little home for them!" said Steven.

"Couldn't I just get some for myself." Said Lapis Lazuli.

"For free too." Said Nami.

Both Hinata and Mirajane glared at her when she said that.

"Actually I don't know if fish are a good idea." Said Mirajane after she stopped glaring, "But maybe we get some water to use it to decorate the room however she likes."

"I guess we could try it." Said Lapis Lazuli.

They got back to the beach house. Steven managed to get some bucket, which Lapis Lazuli quickly filled.

They carried the bucket to a room that was painted blue.

"We painted it last night." Said Mirajane.

"After all that happened it was hard to sleep." Admitted Nami.

"Thanks." Said Lapis Lazuli.

They hung the panting and Lapis Lazuli began to shape the water into furniture.

"You know…" said Lapis Lazuli, "We could have avoided all this fi we can up with this plan earlier."

"You wouldn't have gotten that painting." Said Steven.

"And I wouldn't have gotten that job at the pizza place." Said Mirajane.

"They asked you back?" asked Hinata.

"Only if they need the help. "Said Mirajane.

"Also I think we might need to but a kiddy pool." Said Steven.

"Why?" asked Lapis Lazuli.

"So we can store the water." Said Steven.

"Good idea." Said Mirajane, "We can go tomorrow."

"Okay." Said Lapis Lazuli.

Lapis smiled a bit.

She knew she had to get used to Earth, along with Steven she felt that these three would be the ones to help her.

Back up in space, Maxixe was in the room filled with caules, she smiled wickedly.

"I've been waiting three years to use you." She mused to herself, "And soon I will… those three don't know what I have planned… I will get them back… And you 6 will be the ones that did…"

Little did the conversion Gems know that Maxixe had a plan… a plan that if pulled off successfully would break their very spirits and shock them to their very cores…

Next Time: Maxixe and her team are back on Earth! With their new plan! What is this plan? Will it work? Is this vague enoguh so you don't know what the plan is? Find out next time!
