(Set after Steven Universe the Movie)
9/28/19
Steven was walking down the recently rebuilt Beach City, along with his recently turned girlfriend Connie. Sometime after the Whole Spinel Incident the two were getting closer during the repairs to Beach City and the Earth, "Wow, not much has changed has it?" Connie questioned as they got to the boardwalk.
"Other than the number of gems in our society, nope." Steven answered as they approached a ring toss game. Which Steven won at, and received a giant plushy which he gave to Connie, who accepted it.
"Wow, I don't know if it's a duck or a panda but I love it. Thanks, Steven." she said gratefully.
"My pleasure...… babe?" he said that last part unsurely.
"We'll work on nicknames later." Connie told him.
Just then they came across a small adult handing out posters, "Have you seen this woman?" he asked as he held out each poster. "Please contact me if you have seen this woman!" the two looked to each other in confusion before going up to him.
"Excuse me." the man jumped when Steven came up to him. "What are you-"
Connie then knocked Steven over and squealed, "Are you 205 Live general manager Drake Maverick? Formerly Rockstar Spud of Impact!"
Drake then smiled, "Oh, why yes I am. Always nice to meet a fan."
Steven groaned as he got up, he held his head "Connie you know him?"
"You nor my parents know all of my hobbies and interests." she then faced Drake "Can I have your autograph? SIGN MY FACE!" Drake and Steven reared back a bit, Connie composed herself, "Sorry, here." she pulled out a pen more calmly this time, "You can sign my face."
Drake sighed, "Sorry but I'm much too busy, I'm looking for someone. Have you seen this face around here?" he showed them the poster, and Steven blinked when he saw it was a wanted poster of Lapis Lazuli, with the caption 'WWE 24/7 champion on the loose'.
'Why doesn't the gems ever tell me what they're doing?' Steven thought to himself. "Why do you want to know where Lapis is?"
"Because if I don't come back home with the 24/7 championship," Drake looked around and whispered, "My wife won't let me consummate our marriage." he said worriedly.
Connie awed while Steven looked confused, "You know Pearl says fiber helps." Drake and Connie looked at the half gem with 'wtf' looks, Steven saw Connie's look and replied, "What he said his marriage was constipated!"
Before Connie can correct him, they heard someone get thrown threw a window of the arcade. The three went over to see what it was and saw it was a huge brawl, the guy that was launched from the window was WWE wrestler Heath Slater. In the middle of it all was Lapis sending Elias into a skeeball machine, then she grabbed his guitar and nailed him with it.
"LAPIS!" she heard before she looked to the front.
"Oh, hey Steven." she waved before she ducked a flying crossbody from Lince Dorado, who hit Raul Mendoza as he was sneaking up on Lapis. "Hold on." she told him before she sprouted her water wings and flew over the brawl to her friend.
"What was going on?"
"I believe it has something to do with this." Lapis showed him her 24/7 championship. "Has to be defended 24/7."
"Oh like the Earth."
Suddenly Lapis was then rolled up by Drake Maverick in a school boy, ref Charles Robinson came out of the arcade and counted.

Drake frantically cheered as he grabbed the 24/7 belt off of Lapis. "YES! YES! IT'S MINE! NOW I CAN-" just then he was bonked on the head by a glowing pink shield, he collapsed to the ground and a pink sandal wearing foot was planted on his chest.

Steven was then handed the 24/7 championship. He looked at it, "Man, having to defend a championship around the clock must be hard."
"Yep, and now its your problem." Lapis told him, "It was getting annoying staving off those weirdos, later." Lapis took off.
"Say hi to Peridot and Bismuth for me!" Steven called out.
Connie then placed a hand on Steven's shoulder, "Uh, Steven?" she pointed to the arcade where the brawling mob was standing. They then charged at him, and just in the nick of time he put up his bubble barrier around him and Connie.
The two then rolled away in their bubble with the mob following them, off to the side was Garnet at a corndog stand with Amethyst. "I knew that belt would be around his waist at some point." Garnet said as she pushed her shades back, "Though for how long is up to fate."
Title changes: Drake Maverick def. Lapis Lazuli for the 24/7 championship, Steven Universe def. Drake Maverick for the 24/7 championship.
New record, shortest 24/7 title reign: Drake Maverick with 6 seconds.
