Chapter 37

We just hit 1.11k reads! I love you all so much! Thank youuuu!
I woke up with Amethyst, Addie, Greg and Steven staring at me with surprised looks on their faces. "What?" I giggled nervously. Amethyst pointed at my hair and clothes. "My god!" I said, looking down at my hair which had pink streaks in it. My clothes were probably the most disgusting things I have ever seen. I was wearing a full sequinned pink top, light blue jeans with fake gems on them and my shoes were very sparkly.



If you like that outfit then...sorry
I burst out laughing and Addie joined me, hanging on tightly to Amethyst's arm. "Okay, Okay, Greg give me something to put over these horrible clothes" I smiled at Greg as he rummaged through the stuff in his van. "The rock show is on, we're gonna get Pearl's memories back" Steven said. "Right!" I said.


We had just got to the rock show, Addie was playing on stage with the Suspects as she had become a full time band member. They came on stage and I cheered as loud as I could in my newly given dark red star t shirt and black leather jacket, along with some dark blue ripped jeans and still had the same shoes on. "Who's here for the show?" Sadie asked as the crowd went wild. Addie took the mic and did the piece  sign at the crowd as she started to speak. "Who's here cause it's the end of the world?!" Addie yelled as the crowd went wild but there was a few mutters. "This song is a special request from Steven Universe and Opal Twiggs/Diamond!" Sadie said as the crowd went wild. Sadie started to sing.
Thank you thank you thank you
Thank you for gracing me with your presence!
Good afternoon sir, what can I do sir?
Just say the word sir, anything for you sir
Your friends all say sir, you don't deserve her
I disagree sir, I live to serve sir
Sadie went over to Addie and Amethyst and they both shared the mic as they sang.
I think about all the wasted time I've spent!
I wanna be disobedient!
I shoot awake wondering where my summer's went
I wanna be disobedient
Disobedient
Disobedient
Disobedient
Amethyst and Addie stopped singing and grinned at each other.
I've been good sir, so very very good
For what?
And I've given you every single thing I've got
It's feeling strange man, this whole arrangement
Is gonna end with me
Amethyst and Addie joined again.
Totally deranged!
When I think about all the wasted time I've spent
I wanna be disobedient
I shoot awake wondering where my summer's went
I wanna be disobedient
Disobedient
Disobedient
Disobedient
Amethyst signalled for me and Steven to come over so we did and Addie and Amethyst came to the edge of the stage. "It's not enough!" Steven said. Amethyst and Addie looked at each other and said the same thing. "Maybe we need to hit her where it hurts" Amethyst and Addie said at the same time. "What?" Steven and I gasped at the same time. "You know, her original boss, the love of her life, the reason she rebelled in the first place!" Amethyst said. "Mom/Rose. She's gotta remember Mom/Rose!" Steven and I said. "But" Steven looked back at Greg. "If that's what it takes" Greg shrugged. We all nodded at each other and Amethyst shapeshifted into Rose. Addie and her started to sing lightly.
I want to be disobedient
I want to be disobedient
Disobedient
Disobedient
Disobedient
"How could that not work? What are we missing?" Steven asked. "Don't worry, I can clap for you!" Pearl said, clapping very fast, causing me to laugh. "What will make you stop serving me?" Greg asked. "As long as you exist, I will serve you!" Pearl said. "As long as you exist" Steven, Addie, Amethyst and I repeated. "That's the final piece! Dad" Steven whispered into Greg's ear. I got an idea and whispered into Addie's ear. She seemed excited about it and clapped her hands. Greg, Steven, Addie and I went up on stage. Amethyst readied some music as Addie and I were going first.

The dance bit is pretty much it, Opie being Pink Pearl and Addie being Amethyst.
We grinned at each other and then fused, a bright light as Greg and Steven fused too. Steg and our fusion stood back to back. We had a messy long hair ponytail, which was a maroon like colour. My leather jacket was very short and we had a navy T-shirt on, my star showing. The jeans were like shorts and my t shirt also had a blue top over it. Our shoes were like pink high sneakers, which actually looked really cool. "It's a big old universe out there, and when you're getting crushed by the weight of them stars, sometimes you need that special someone to remind you that you're so much more" Steg winked at the crowd. "Too right Steg" our new husky but soft feminine voice said, our hair brushing our shoulders in the wind. "Let's duet" Steg said. "Looking forward to it" we said, getting a microphone out of nowhere and Steg started playing guitar. We both started to sing together.
Nothing is holding you back now
Steg sung the next line.
No one, can push you around
I started to sing again.
What do you wanna do?
You're the master of you
Steg and I started to sing together again.
And isn't the thought enough to lift you off of the ground?
Pearl started to sing as her, us and Steg got lifted up into the sky.
Nothing, is holding me back now
No one, can push me around
What do I wanna do?
I'm the master of me
And isn't the thought enough to lift me off of the ground?
Steg held our hand as we went up into the sky.
We could be, independent together
Independent together
We could fly~
Independent together
Independent together
Independent together, you and I
I felt Addie's side smile warmly as Amethyst grinned at us. Steg and us started to sing again.
High above and endless sea
No one brought us, here but me
Every step and every choice
It's my fault
It's my thought
It's my words
It's my voice
Pearl and Amethyst fused into Opal and started to sing again.
Independent together
Independent together if we try~
We all started singing together again.
Independent together
Independent together
Independent together you and I
Independent together
Independent together
We could fly~
Independent together
Independent together
Independent together you and I
Independent together you and I~
The song finished and we all unfused, me and Steven looking terrible. "Fudge my life" I mumbled, laying on the ground. "Steven! Opal! Are you okay?" Pearl asked. "You think?" I groaned. "Don't worry about us, it's Spinel. We need her to remember how turn off her injector. Pearl, what do you know about her?" Steven asked. "Spinel? She was Pink Diamond's little playmate, they used to spend ages together in Pink's garden-" Pearl explained. "Garden?" Steven asked. "That's where they used to play!" Pearl said. "So what's her problem with us?" Amethyst asked. "I don't know, I haven't seen her in six thousand years! Something must have happened to her since then!" Pearl said. "Then that's what I need to find out!" Steven said. "Woah kiddo! Don't you think you might wanna take a break?" Greg asked. "It looks like those fusions took everything out of you!" Addie said. "I gotta do what I can with the little I have left. I'm going after Spinel, you stay here Opie, rest up" Steven said. "No I'm coming" I said weakly, barely able to get up. I felt strong arms pick me up and I looked up to see Candyfloss Garnet looking down at me. "You need to rest" Garnet said. I blushed, it almost feeling like the real Garnet was talking to me. "Steven!" Greg said as Steven raced off on Lion, Addie hanging on to him. "Addie! Careful!" Amethyst said. We went back to the house and Pearl put a blanket around me as I was constantly cold. Garnet pulled my head onto her shoulder. "I like it when you do this" Garnet said as I smiled weakly at her. After a while everyone was worrying about Steven and Addie and I had regained a bit of my colour. "Guys! Guess who's back!" Steven and Addie turned to someone up the stairs and Spinel came down nervously. "Hi Spinel, nice to see your memories are back" I said sleepily. The gems retaliated very quickly and brought out their weapons. "Oh Spinel! Did you change your hair?" Garnet smiled brightly as I burst into laughter. "Woah! Spinel got her memories back! But she's not gonna hurt us! Everything's chill!" Addie smiled. Connie came through a Lion portal and brought out her sword. "I'm here! Where's the fight?" Connie asked. "No fight! Everything's chill!" Steven said. "For now" I snorted as Steven gave me a look. Greg came out of the bathroom and the gems all pointed weapons at him. "Alright! Alright! I'll wash my hands!" Greg said as he went back into the bathroom. "Hey Spinel, can you do us a favour?" I asked. "Are you kidding? Anything!" Spinel said. "Can you get that injector out of the ground? I told you that I have a phobia of injector and that thing isn't really helping!" I said.
