The gangster pulled out a gun from her pocket, pointing it at the at the citizen.

"Listen up shorty. I need 25,000 now. You owe me."

"For what?" The business man looked up into the woman's eyes, the blue color sitting right above her upturned nose. Her lips turned into a smirk.

"For keeping you alive."

"Y...you wouldn't."

"I saw you help out the Gems. I want some of the action."

The Crystal Gem snapped, and another woman came out of the corner, an African American with a large afro, sunglasses covering any emotion in her eyes. In her hands, she held two handguns, right over the tattoos of gems on her hands, a sign of her loyalty to the Crystal Gem gang.

He handed over the money.

"Thanks sweetie." Pearl bent over, gently touching his chin as she looked condescendingly down on him.

She strutted away, the fringes of her dress swinging with every movement of her hips.

She turned back. "Oh. And let the Gems know we're coming for them."

Once the two got to the bar, they greeted the third member of the nearly extinct gang, a short, curvy sniper whose tattoo was fully visible under her low cut dress, the purple color contrasting to her tan skin.

"Did ya get it P?"

"Yes."

Pearl walked behind the bar as the other woman, named Garnet stepped near the door, assuming her position as the body guard, her pinstriped suit doing nothing to slim her muscles.

Amethyst walked up to Steven's room, and laid down next to him and fell asleep.

The next morning, when Steven woke up, he found every member of his family asleep on the floor.

He looked at them fondly, and got up to make them a breakfast.

After making 3 stacks of waffles, Pearl finally woke up, her makeup smeared, sporting a large headache.

"Good morning sweetie." This time, the words had affection in them.

"Hey Pearl! I made you something to eat!"

He pushed the plate in front of her, but she pushed it away.

"Remember, I'm on a diet, but I still am not the biggest fan of eating. Although I could go for some OJ. Could ya get that for me?"

As he headed over to the fridge, he woke up Garnet and Amethyst, and they headed over to table, where Pearl was now slouching over.

"Oh... can I have yours too P?"

"You shouldn't eat that much."

Amethyst rolled her eyes. "Say what you want." She started shoving food into her mouth.

Steven came back with the juice. "I'm so excited! I can hardly hold it in!"

"Ok, ok," Garnet grinned, ruffling Steven's bed head. "Let's get ready for the big day."
