Chapter Text
"Steven!"
"Ameythest!"
"Man we are going to have so much fun!" she said. Steven arrived at her house on her bike, they both hi-fived each other and they went up to her room.
Her and Steven go to her room, Steven sees that her room is mostly the same, except for the drum set that is in the corner.
"Coooollll! You have a drum set?" he asked walking over to it. Amethyst smiles.
"Heck yeah, I do! Hey, did you bring your guitar? we can have a jam shesh."
"No, do you have one?"
"Yeah, I do," she said, going into her closet and pulling out a light purple and white electric guitar with an amplifier.
"Cool! I can use this?" Steven asked as Ameythest handed it to him.
"Yeah, dude!" she said as she sat at her drum set and picked up her sticks.
Steven plugged in the amplifier, turned it on, and started tuning the guitar.
"You know any Staind songs?" Steven asked. Ameythest nodded and they played.
Jasper was sitting in her room. She heard someone open the door, her mother walked in, she looked like her, even down to her hair. She smiles softly at her.
"How was your day, mom?"
"Fine…. It was a hectic shift at the restaurant. But how are you? he gave you any trouble?" She asked.
Jasper shook her head, then lowered it. "Well… there was one incident but—"
"What happened?"
"He smashed one on my head."
"What?" She asked as rage filled her body. Jasper looked at her mother—Jane Morgan Jane was a kind woman. But when you make her mad, there is no stopping her. And she is protective of her child from that monster.
She has been trying to get her and Jasper out of here for a year but it hasn't worked. Jasper can't work because her 'husband' has made her a personal servant. Like a Pearl
And it was disgusting.
Jane felt bad for her, She had to leave home all day to work to get them out of this situation, But on the other hand, she didn't want to leave Jasper alone with him for hours a day. Sure, she can go out and stuff but her father does not let her. Unless it's for something he wanted.
Jane wants to file for divorce but, she doesn't want to get shattered by him in the process. So they would have to sneak out or do something.
She put a hand on her shoulder. "Why won't I make you something to eat?"
"No Mom, I'm going out. Thanks anyway," she said waking out of their unit. She went to the door and opened it, the neighborhood she lived in was dead. A few homeless slept on the streets, She decided to go to LA for a few hours.
Jasper was walking the streets, when she saw a bus with a sign on it that had the main Crystal Gems on a plain blue background with the slanted, 3D Cartoon Network logo.
She took out her phone and took a picture, but her camera was going in and out of focus. She sighed angrily. "That clod broke my camera's phone." she sighed and kept walking.
A man was playing guitar on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. Jasper listened to the man play, then. her phone started buzzing.
Father.
Sighing in frustration she answered it. "What, father? I am in LA."
"What are you doing in LA!" She could hear him yell over the phone. Jasper sighed and hung up, she didn't want to hear him complain anymore. She looked up and saw a woman handing out flyers.
Jasper took one and read it. Come join our girls\women's basketball team! at Luke Street Community Center located at227 N Lake St, Los Angeles, CA 90026
Jasper looked up and nodded. She was going to do it, hopefully, she'll get to leave home for something else.
Hopefully.
Steven and Amethyst were both riding their bikes. down the streets. Steven decided to ride to Clarence's house with her, it wasn't too late into the night and it was still young, so… Why wouldn't they have some fun with it?
Steven knocked on Clarence's door, he opened it. "Steven? what are you doing here?"
"Hey, Clarence. We're going to have some fun, wanna hang out with us?"
"Sure!" he said, grabbing his bike and they went around Los Angeles.
"Guys, let's get Sumo!" Steven said.
"Yeah!" Clarence said as they peddled to his house to grab him and cause chaos with him.
"Sure I'll go with you guys! let's cause some chaos!" he said, grabbing his skateboard and riding it.
"Hey, guys. Let's egg that house!" she said, looking at the house. Steven looked at it. It was massive, wooden, old and it looked like it wasrotting away.
"Um… Are you sure? that house looks creepy." Steven said, looking at his friends.
"Aw come on, Steven! it looks cool!" Sumo said. Steven touched his chest, his heart was going a thousand miles per hour at this rate. He didn't want to get into trouble, he just wanted to have fun and read comic books or play video games! He looked at Sumo and Ameythest for a moment and sighed.
"Alright."
Ameythest took out a carton and opened it up. A dozen eggs were sitting in each hole, uncracked. Sumo grabbed two and threw them at the house, Making a satisfying 'splat' sound on the door. Amethyst set the carton into the grass and they kept egging this house.
Steven, Ameyhest, Sumo, and Clarence went to Agora Hills, They rode into another neighborhood a few streets down Ameythest's, Steven caught up with Clarence and Sumo rode behind the two gems. Ameythest stopped in front of a house and got out some toilet paper rolls from her backpack, she then opened it a little and threw it onto the house and lawn. Sumo joined in on the fun and started doing the same.
Amethyst. Steven, Clarence, and Sumo all went back to her street. The boys went to her house so they could spend the night also.
Her parents were already asleep, and Ameythest could hear her father's heavy breathing from upstairs. They all went up to her room, Ameythest sat on her beanbag. Steven took the top bunk and lay on it.
"It's been cool, Ames," Sumo said. "We're gonna go."
"Bye guys, see you tomorrow," Steven told them, his friends waved and they walked out of the house. Steven fell asleep.
