Alright I've decided to make this a Steven chapter! Enjoy~! Also Manga154 I used your O.C. in this chapter, although I changed a few things in it, I made the monster look less human and made the regular form look the same, and decided not to use the gem ship yard, that was more of a optional thing just in case, sorry if I disappointed you on that, also to everyone else reading this the first part is really confusing, but you'll find out whats happening! I swear! Also I'm so sorry about cutting down your O.C.'s name, "Smoky Quartz" Just doesn't seem like a normal name, similar to how the gems never fully said "Rose Quartz" And often just called her "Rose".

Steven slid down the meta pole, and held onto it tightly before realizing how easy it was, he let go of the rail, just barely upright and yelled, "Woo hoo~!" As he used gravity to propel himself off of it and spun in the air, doing a back flip whist saying, "Triple-five fifty deluxe with no cheese!" Until he realized how close the ground was and before he was able to slow himself down landed on his face.

He looked up, expecting to see a gem monster standing there attempting to attack him, but instead there was a ruby red gem, unlike Ruby it was a shiny red, looking recently polished and was cool, not warm like Ruby. There were tiny splotches of pink on the sides and bottom, but on the front, or at least he guessed it was the front, it was pure red. The gem was perfectly smooth except for the way it rose up like the bottom of a diamond and came to a point, but unlike a diamond the (bottom?) was smooth and had no signs of rising in a sort of design or anything, it was simply rounded, it reminded him of Pearl, except it wasn't a perfect oval and of course the (top?) was pointed.

He let the cool gem rest in his hands a bit before setting it down, getting ready to bubble it when it shook, he was stunned. Normally gems would either stay dormant or start glowing and maintain a physical form in seconds, but this one just shook.

He turned it over in his hands and noticed a small crevice in the gemstone, and noticed how when the gem came to a point it spiraled, and then noticed soon after that the "small crevice" was opening up into a large hole, he dropped the gem in shock and fear as a small red head poked out of it, she looked around and sighed.

"I was caught again huh?" Came a voice from behind him, he turned to face the speaker, it was a gray (Or grey) skinned female, she had a long agile looking body, that strangely reminded him of a swimmers build, with a standard dark jumpsuit, that was a light black, or dark gray, it was really the same, but Steven had trouble trying to decide despite that. The unknown gem also had white short cut hair, and when she turned Steven saw a small hole on her lower back where he just could barely identify as a smoky quartz, and guessed all those lessons Pearl had taught him on gems and their culture and what they looked like had really payed off, he knew a smoky quartz when he saw one, Pearl always talked about her tales on homeworld, and it pained him to know that she still admired it despite having gone to war with them, and knowing that Pearl had no idea how much it had changed over the years, she also had several crisscrossed lines creeping up her neck that seemed to pulse, where the red marks were he noticed her skin had turned a bony white, her hair was also very short, just barely making it's way to her neck, it looked similar to a boy's haircut, except it had long locks, just cut short and coming to a point at her neck.

"W-who are you?" Steven asked nervously, he was just about sick of all these new gems. Where did they keep coming from?! Now that he thought about it he looked at all the bubbled gems and wondered why so many gem monsters came here, and from Ciritine it sounded like she'd never seen one, from wherever she came from that is. It was obviously not homeworld. No matter how much she tried to lie and fib that it was.

"Smoky Quartz, I'm just your average spy." She said with a confident voice.

"You're a spy?" He asked, despite wondering why a spy would flat out tell someone they're a spy.

"Well I was about a couple thousand years ago." Smoky Quartz replied, "Oh, right you can just call me Smoky." She said. (Partly because I can't type the "z" button without hurting my middle finger in the process).

"Okay, Smoky, you don't look...you know...corrupted." Steven commented on her appearance.

"Nope, there wasn't much of a problem with that at the war, it was afterwords that the Earth became messed up and gem monsters began to go everywhere, I only became bubbled about a few years after the war once the Crystal gems found out about me being a spy and all." Smoky informed him.

"Y-you mean...They don't just..." The boy was in a state of shock, just a year or two ago he had believed that they had only bubbled corrupted gem monsters because they couldn't be helped and he couldn't let them run free or they'd cause havoc, but knowing that they had bubbled countless innocent gems...

"Ah I see they told you that they only bubbled certain gems am I right?" She asked, but instantly cut him off before he could reply, "Oh right!" She snapped her fingers and the small red gem with the head disappeared. "I was learning how to create illusions." She informed. "But my main ability is camouflage, but it's timed, I can only use it for a short amount of time, and just before I was bubbled I was learning how to create illusions." She finished.

"Well to your first statement, yes, to the rest, wow." Steven simply replied, Smoky smirked.

"Piece of advice," She began, and her smile fell, her eyes changed from a pale gray to a red, but just for a second, "Don't trust them." She said passionately, making sure Steven knew just how serious she was about this. "No matter how well you think you know a person, you're wrong. They will turn on you in a second, it's just how humans and gems are. No matter how special or close you think you are, that doesn't do anything, except make the betrayal hurt worse." She insisted, Steven nodded sadly. She let a reassuring smile reappear onto her face, "'Cause...You never know...I mean you're friends will lie to you, it's inevitable, don't take it so hard, it happens to the best of us, although it's worse in some cases. Boy, trust me, I'm sure they only wanted to protect you, those Crystal gems have many flaws, but they're good gems." Smoky said softly.

"Alright, I trust you."

So. Yeah another cliffhanger. This chapter was really not about the actual episode, it was more of a side episode to introduce the O.C. next chapter though will have that, hopefully. (Probably not, I never own up to my claims)
