Chapter 26: You Don't Deserve To Be A Crystal Gem!

Your POV

I woke up from the soft bed. I stretched and stood up and headed for the console, I typed in a few things and I  saw that this is a daily report of the everyday event here in beach City.

Including the time that Jasper arrived here. I decided to go back to Steven and ask what we are going to do today.

The temple doors opened and I went through. I looked around and saw that everyone was gone except for Ronaldo.

I made my way near Ronaldo and i noticed that he looks strange. At least he didn't take videos of me.knowing the fact that he posts weird things in his blog.

Well it is a blog to keep Beach City weird, so I guess it makes sense. at that very moment the warp pad lit up and Steven headed for the kitchen.

Y/N: Hey Steven. What happened while I was out?

Steven: Oh we just went to a mission.

Ronaldo begins inspecting Steven, presumably returned from the mission earlier, with a pair of binoculars. He even watches people minding their own business? He's even more of a creep

Steven: Um... hi, Bloodstone.

Ronaldo: Oh. Hi, Steven. Didn't see you there. So... how'd the mission go without me holding you back?

Steven: Uh, it went fine. You know, the usual: fighting monsters, sharing emotions.

Ronaldo: I'm glad you didn't get hurt. With me not there.

Steven: Yeah... Well, I'm heading out.

Ronaldo: And you're going out like that?

Steven: Uh... like what?

Ronaldo: Well, I just think a real Crystal Gem would want to show off their gem, like, all the time. If I had a gem, I'd show mine off.

Steven ties a knot in the bottom of his shirt to expose his gem. What's his problem? Probably he's upset since he didn't go for a mission, he's not even ready. Nor will he ever be.

The next day

I trained Steven and Connie since Pearl and the others are out for a mission.Steven bides Connie  goodbye as she leaves Steven's house. She has a lot of potential in her and she can become one of the greatest sword fighters I know.

Steven: Bye, Connie! See you tomorrow for sword training! *bumps into Ronaldo inside the house* Ah!

Ronaldo: Her gem weapon's a sword, huh? She totally ripped that off from me.

Steven: What?! That sword  belonged to my mom!

Ronaldo: How come I don't get your mom's gempon? That's "Gem" and "weapon".

Steven: Well, Connie's been a part of the Crystal Gems longer than you, so...

Ronaldo: Admit it. She's just in because she's your girlfriend.

Steven: What are you talking about?!

Ronaldo: She doesn't even live here! I'm here all the time! Look at that quality groove I've established! ( *gestures at a groove indented in the couch* ) If she was a real Crystal Gem, she'd be a little bit more dedicated!

Y/N: Hey! What the heck is wrong with you?

Steven: Are you serious?! Bloodstone, ever since you got here, all you've done is boss me around! Who are you to tell anyone how to be a Crystal Gem?! You're just- You're just... a guy with a blog!

Y/N: You know he's right.

Ronaldo:  (*deadpan*) Is that love? Is that acceptance? Maybe you're the one that isn't a Crystal Gem. I think you need to leave and think about stuff.

Is he serious right now? He's bragging that he's a Crystal Gem when he doesn't even know the first thing about it.

After Steven left I gave the idiot a death glare. At the same time the others came back from a mission.

Ronaldo: Why are you acting like this?

Y/N: Why am I acting like this? For fuck's sake Ronaldo. Why are you acting like this? What did Steven do to you?

Ronaldo: Steven snapped at me.

Y/N: He snapped at you because of what you were doing! You have been bossing him around since you got here! Unlike you he's been through tough scenarios that can make a normal person cry, while all you do is take videos for your stupid blog! He deserves to be a Crystal Gem because he has a responsibility. Give him a break he's just a 14 year old kid and you told him he doesn't deserve to be one! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO SAY WHETHER HE'S A MEMBER OF THE CRYSTAL GEMS?!?!

Ronaldo: (*deadpan*) You just did the same thing that Steven did. You were a Homeworld Gem for like two weeks ago. What do you know about being a Crystal Gem? What if you're just a spy that Homeworld sent and betray the Crystal Gems?

He's even changing the damn subject. This is about him not me! I gritted my teeth and started gripping my hair tightly. I just gave a deep sigh and calmed down. I lunged at Ronaldo and summoned my blades.

Y/N: I WILL SKIN YOU ALIVE YOU SHIT!!!

Garnet and Pearl grabbed me and pulled me away from the idiot while Amethyst pulled Ronaldo away from me. I just got back and I already have to deal with this type of shit.

I kept trying to break free while Ronaldo just kept laughing. He find this funny? This only made me even more mad and my body started acting on it's own again. Just then Steven stomps back inside.

Steven: Bloodstone! We need to talk!

Ronaldo turns around with a drool on his face and looked at Steven.

Steven: You're right! The Crystal Gems are about love and acceptance! But you've been acting really mean to me, and I don't love that. I don't accept that. I wish I hadn't snapped at you, it's just... I really thought you joined because you were interested in the Crystal Gems. But the second it wasn't about you, you stopped caring. This isn't the Bloodstone club about making Bloodstone feel good. This is my whole life! Do you care about that or not?!

Ronaldo's star starts falling off his shirt, and then he collapses onto the floor. Did...did he just die? Finally.

Amethyst: Whoa! You truthed him so hard, he died!

Steven: No! Bloodstone! Bloodstone!

Ronaldo begins snoring assuming he fell asleep. OH COME ON!!!

Steven: *sighs* He's just asleep. Guess staying awake for a whole week finally caught up with him.

Pearl: Well, what do we do with Fryrocko now?

Y/N: Nice nickname Pearl. 

Timeskip to Beach City Walk Fries Night-time

The Crystal Gems drop Ronaldo outside on the ground in front of the Beach Citywalk Fries. 

Garnet: We should let his parent  know he's back.

Amethyst: *shapeshifts into Ronaldo* Hey, Dad. I'm back. Blog, blog, blog.

Pearl: That was really good!

Y/N: That was nice!

Amethyst: *shapeshifts back to normal* Thanks!

Steven: I'll... text Peedee  and let him know he's here. You think he'll be okay?

Amethyst: You've worried about him enough, Steven.

Garnet: Crystal Gems, let's head back.

The others jumped backed to the beach and headed for the temple while Steven looked at Ronaldo one last time. After that we both walked down the boardwalk.

Y/N: I'm proud of you Steven. You proved to him that you deserve to be a Crystal gem.

Steven: Thanks but...do I really deserve to be a Crystal Gem?

Y/N: Well...yes. Your mother wanted you to be one of them and you took her place. You have done a lot of things that a true Crystal Gem would do. so it's more than enough to say that you've earned the title of being one.

Then Steven looked at me and gave me a hug. I hugged back and smiled.

Y/N: Wanna see my room in the temple?

Steven: Wait you have one?

Y/N: For some reason yeah. I think your mother was expecting my arrival a long time ago.

After that we both headed for the temple while we kept talking as we walked in the bright moonlight.

Three weeks later
Steven's POV

Steven and Painite was walking around the boardwalk, seemingly worried, when they spots Ronaldo brooding on a bench.

Steven: Bloodstone!

Ronaldo: Oh. Hey, Steven, Painite

Steven: Are you all right? I haven't seen you in... three weeks.

Ronaldo: Yeah. I took a real long nap, and then I did some hard thinking. I wasn't acting like Bloodstone. I was acting like... Jerknaldo. You accepted me, but I still felt like an outsider. I guess even amongst outsiders, I am the ultimate outsider. I think it's better Ronaldo Fryman work alone.

Y/N: It's nice that you took some time to think.

Steven: Are you sure? I was really glad you wanted to help our cause.

Ronaldo:I still do. *hands Steven a new "Ronalphlet"*

Steven: Oh. It's you and Pearl shaking hands. When did that happen?

Y/N: How did you do this?

Ronaldo:I used the magic of photo-editing software. Hey, but, uh... Ronalphlets aside, can I ask you something?

Steven: Yeah?

Ronaldo: Why don't you use your Gem name?

Steven: Oh. My Gem name is my mom's name. Actually, the only time Gems really call me that is, if they're about to kidnap me or beat me up.

Y/N: Wait how many times have you been attempted to beaten up?

Ronaldo: That's rough, buddy. You want me to put that in the Ronalphlet?

Steven: Eh... maybe not.

Ronaldo: Got it. What about you Painite? What did you do?

Y/N: Oh uuuhhh...I fought in wars to uphold the empire and finished the missions that were on hold for centuries. I fought rebels threatening to hurt others.

Ronaldo: The Crystal Gems?

Y/N: No not the Crystal Gems. There are other rebels that want to hurt others and to rule Homeworld for themselves. The Crystal Gems only fight for freedom of gems, not power.

Ronaldo: Cool. Can I put it in the Ronalphet?

Y/N: Sure. It won't hurt.

Ronaldo: Got it.

And Finished.

Hope you like the rapid updates last week. I was writing so fast that I decided to write four of them. My hands hurt in the end but it was worth it for you guys to enjoy my story. This is YoBoyMcFly and I will see you all in the next chapter.

Mcfly signing off.
