"Lars?"

"Yeah, bud?"

"I think I'm ready to talk."

"Alright. C'mon back."

It had been four days since Steven arrived in the company of the rebels, but he already felt like they were a second family. Bismuth was a stern, yet loving mother; Garnet was the helpful big sister; and Lars was a big brother he respected. But until now, he never felt like he could trust them, or even talk to one of them about what he's been going through. Then he took a step into Lars' room, Lars shutting the door behind them as Steven sat on his bed. Lars set his rolling chair in front of Steven, grabbing a notebook and a pen.

"So, what's on your mind, bud?"

Steven tried his best to maintain eye contact.

"Uh... Well... I checked my phone earlier today."

"Did you text anyone?"

"No. I just checked my messages. I saw that Connie's last message was from about five days ago..."

"Is that normal for her?"

"No. I'm worried about her."

"Why?"

"Because she keeps telling me things like... 'if you leave, I'll... I'll kill myself...' and I'm really scared that she did that."

"Did she say that to you recently?"

"No, but she does it when she thinks I'm leaving."

"Is it ok if you give me an example?"

Steven began to fidget as he tried to keep eye contact with Lars' friendly face.

"Yeah. I used to have a friend named Peedee back home. He was real fun, even though he was kind of annoying. Then Connie said I had to stop seeing him."

"That's odd. Did she say why?"

"Yeah, she said she doesn't want people to think I'm... 'gay'. She said that means when boys love boys."

"So did you stop seeing Peedee?"

"Yeah. She even made me stop sitting with him at school during lunch and hanging out with him during recess."

"So, this Connie girl, did she say she would kill herself if you-"

"Yes."

"Huh... What did she text you?"

"Oh, uh... Normal girlfriend stuff. She was asking where I was, what I was doing, hoping I'd come back safe and sound."

Steven kept a straight face as he lied through his teeth. He didn't want to go down the rabbit hole of telling Lars what she actually texted him.

"You sure?" Lars asked, able to tell something was wrong.

"Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure," Steven replied with a smile.

"Alrighty. If she texts you something else, come and show me or Garnet, ok? No pressure."

Lars gave Steven a confident smile before turning a page in his notebook, writing a few lines down before asking another question.

"Okay, now Garnet told me some things about what... some other people back at your home did with you. I know it's a sensitive topic, but are you feeling like talking about that?"

Steven crossed his arms as he moved his back to the wall.

"I... I can try..."

"Don't worry. We don't have to if you don't want to. We can talk whenever you're ready, bud."

"I think I'm ready... Yeah, yeah, I'm ready."

"Okay. Lay it on me."

Steven took a deep breath out, feeling nauseous and hot as he thought of what to say first.

"Uh... Well... The other day... On the ship me and Garnet came in on... I lied to her."

"Okay. What did you say to her?"

Steven was momentarily stunned by Lars' lack of reaction. He'd never get away with lying to Pink or Connie. And he had just lied to Lars! But he didn't seem to care about knowing Steven lied to Garnet. He just wrote an extra line in his notebook. Steven looked like a scolded pet as he started to curl up in the corner.

"I... I told her... It started later than it did... Mom had played with me before. Connie, too, but mom... Mom did it before I even knew Connie... I keep seeing it when I go to sleep."

"If you want to, you can tell me what happened. Getting things off of your chest makes you feel better, right?"

"Yeah... But first, I told her something true... I told her I had a dream about Am- one of my family members."

"Was this based on something real, too?"

"Yes."

"Alright. But I think we should stick to what your mom did first."

"Did Garnet tell you about my dream already?"

"...Yes. She did."

Lars got up and sat with Steven on the bed, hugging him.

"But I want you to focus. What did your mom do?"

--Six years ago--

"Mommy?"

"Yes?"

"Can I tell you a secret?"

"Sure, sweetie. Mommy can keep secrets better than anyone in the universe."

"Okay..."

Steven stood on his tip toes to reach his mom's ears, the house empty as he whispered.

"Amy-fist... touched my swimsuit parts last year..."

"Oh, did she?" Pink spoke back in a hush; Steven nodded.

"She played a game with me," he continued, "it felt funny. She touched my pee pee."

Steven had a strange look that other four year olds wouldn't give when talking about their special places. He looked confused, even a little scared.

"Amy-fist told me to keep it a secret..."

Steven felt his mommy's hand gently gliding up and down his arm. She gave him a loving smile as she held him tight.

"Steven? I... Mommy..."

Her hand went lower.

"Amethyst just likes playing those games with boys like you. It's a girl's super-special way of telling a boy they love them."

"Mommy? Are you gonna play it with me, too?"

"Eh... Not exactly, sweetheart."

Pink pulled her hand away from him and unbuttoned her top, removing the weird clothes under her shirt along with it. Steven giggled at the big orb things on her chest that flopped out - Pink giggled along with him.

"These thingies are really funny, aren't they? You wanna touch 'em?"

Steven's laughter stopped as he felt a strong sense of embarrassment. He also felt something else... a sense he hadn't felt since Amy touched him. It made him hesitate and speak quietly.

"Um... No thank you, mommy..."

"Aw, okay."

She patted him on the head.

"So, I took my shirt off. Can you take yours off for mommy?"

Steven felt dreadfully uncomfortable as he grabbed the bottom of his shirt, his mom on her knees in front of him. She wasn't saying anything, which made it even creepier. She was just staring at him in anticipation as he gradually pulled his shirt up over his head. He set his shirt beside him as his mom rubbed his side.

"You're so handsome, Stevie. Do the other girls at school give you trouble?"

Steven raised an eyebrow, confused by what she was asking him.

"No. Why?"

"Because, silly. You look so good that... I just have to... take these off..."

Without another word, Pink pulled her work pants and underwear down, sitting beside Steven again as she grabbed his waistband.

"I love you so much, Stevie! I love you so much, I... I touch my privates to you, Stevie!"

Pink pulled Steven's pants and undies down with such ferocity that she nearly ripped them in half. Steven looked on in shock, never having seen this side of his mommy before.

"Mommy? Are you ok? I'm sca-"

Pink leaned in and kissed Steven on the mouth, this kiss much different than her normal kisses. Her lips were pressed against his. He felt her tongue moving around in his mouth. Her breathing was hard and fast as she kissed him repeatedly. Then, she grabbed him tight and pulled him to the floor, laying on her back as one arm wrapped around him, and the other reached somewhere else. She pulled back, stopping the kiss to speak.

"Steven!? Fuck me! Fuck your mommy! FUCK YOUR MOMMY, STEVEN!"

--

"Steven!? Steven!! Steven, snap out of it!"

"N-! NOOOOOOOOO-O-OOOOO!!! I DON'T WANNA DO IT, MOMMY!!"

Steven was a nervous wreck, crying his loudest and hyperventilating as tears streamed down his face. He was in the fetal position, rocking himself at the corner of the bed.

"I do- I don't wanna fuck you, mommy-y-y!! I'm sca-a-ared!"

He felt a warm embrace as he felt his breakdown fade.

"Your mommy can't get you, Steven. Your mommy hurt you real bad. But she's far, far away. She's not gonna get you, Steven. We'll never let her get you."

Steven felt his negative emotions being suppressed, to be replaced with a light and fluffy feeling. He felt... calm. At ease. He unwound himself and laid flat on the bed, feeling like he had been revived from anesthesia. Lars was holding his hand, a pink glow emitting from his palm.

"I, uh... I guess you could say this is my diamond power."

Lars let go, the glow subsiding, before sitting down next to Steven. Steven felt his fear and panic set back in, though not nearly as strong as before.

"I... I'm really sorry..." he softly spoke as he laid on Lars' side to cry.

"You have nothing to be sorry about," Lars replied as he gave Steven the biggest hug he had ever given out.

--Two hours later--

"Lars? I.... I really gotta tell you something."

"I think we should take a break for today. You've been through a lot-"

"No! No. I need to tell you."

The two were still on Steven's bed, Steven still recovering from his breakdown earlier. Lars gave Steven's back a rub before a pink glow enveloped his hand.

"I'm not a therapist, but I'm training to be one... And Garnet uses me sometimes to talk to boys like you. Boys who've been through a lot. I should have done this earlier..."

Lars held Steven's hand, and Steven could feel a wave of warm calm wash over him. He could think much more clearly about what he wanted to tell Lars now.

"Okay... I... I wanted to tell you about Connie... We met when I was seven, and she was ten..."

"Were you at school?"

"Yeah... We were on the playground. I was by myself on the swingset... Mommy made me play in bed with her last night, and I was really sad about that... Then Connie walked up to me. She wanted to know why I was so sad. I didn't say why I was sad. I just told her I had a bad day. Then she said she wanted to be my friend. I was real happy that an older girl would want be my friend."

"Did she... do anything else, Steven?"

"Yes."

"What did she do?"

"She said it would be easier for us to be friends without everyone watching... I followed her to the other school playground that didn't have as many kids playing... We got inside one of those tube thingies and... We kissed. It was a boyfriend girlfriend kiss. Only mommy and Amy kissed me like that. That made me really scared that she'd play with me."

"Did she... play with you, Steven?"

"Connie... Connie grabbed my pee pee in the tube..."

Lars felt it again. A dark, powerful negative energy that threatened to overshadow his own abilities. It was much more prominent than when he calmed Steven a moment ago. He knew he had to work fast before his powers became too ineffective. Steven was already beginning to cry.

"Stay with me, bud," Lars spoke frantically. "Did Connie play other games with you on that day?"

"Yes," Steven affirmed, beginning to break up. "She made me touch her parts and... We...!"

Lars let go of Steven as the negative energy became too much for him to bear. Steven cried into his hands, his emotions in full swing.

"Connie made me have sex with her at school! She said she'd tell the teachers I started it if... She made me... finish inside... Then she took my phone and texted mommy..."

"What happened after that, Steven?"

"Mommy... picked us up from school later and... She made us... go into the green room..."

"Green room? What's that?"

"Where mommy and Connie hurt me! They make me play with them... They take photos and make movies of me... Then they share them with everyone else!"

"Everyo-... Who's everyone else?"

Steven sniffled and hyperventilated his was to the answer.

"Th- the... The other C- C- Crystal Gems and... Th- the Diamonds... That's why B- Blue loves m- me s- so much!"

Lars stood up, looking conflicted and angry. He clenched his fists, barely able to contain his anger.

"Stay there, buddy."

He hurried out of his room.

"GARNET!? KEEP AN EYE ON STEVEN!"

Garnet was at a table, immediately springing to action and rushing over to Lars.

"What is it!? What's wrong with Steven!?"

"Just watch him! I'm gonna go have a chat with our Diamond friend!"

"She hasn't given us anything-"

"She will once I'm done with her!"

"Lars, listen to-"

"Garnet, Steven just dropped a bombshell on me! On ALL of us! His piece-of-SHIT mom's been feeding homemade abuse materials to the other Diamonds for god-knows how long!"

"That doesn't mean White knows anything about it!"

"You honestly think she doesn't!? The woman who you say helped run a sex trafficking ring might possibly not know about the abuse of her friend's son!?"

"She's been living in a farming village for the last twenty something years! She doesn't know shit about Steven!"

"Then why's she keep asking for him!? Huh!? Wanna gimme an excuse for that!?"

Small flares of pink electricity shot from his hands and arms. He was breathing heavily as Garnet laid a hand on his shoulder.

"Lars. I know. You're pissed the fuck off at what they did to Steven. We ALL are. But beating the shit out of our most valuable asset won't change a damn thing, and you know it."

Lars' energy faded with his anger. He sat in a nearby seat and breathed slowly, internally counting to ten.

"Yeah... You're right. I do know better. It's just... I haven't seen anything this bad since I signed onto the Justice. His negative energy was even stronger than Rho's. And Rho was locked in a cellar with some other gems before someone rescued him."

The door to Lars' room opened. Steven came out, wiping tears from his face.

"Guys? Are you fighting?"

Garnet and Lars were silent for a few seconds.

"Yeah," Lars spoke calmly. "We were. We're feeling better, though."

Lars shot Steven a grin. Steven didn't buy it.

"You guys sounded really angry..."

"That was mostly me. Sorry about that."

Garnet fast walked to Steven's side, grazing his hair.

"We were fighting because... We have someone here who wants to meet you. But we can't let them meet you because... It's White Diamond."

"White Diam-?"

Then he remembered. That was the mean white lady who did nothing but shout and scream. He wrung his hands.

"Uh... What did they say?"

"Nothing important yet," Lars interrupted. "She's saying nothing other than she wants to talk to you."

"What if I wanna talk to her?"

"Steven," Garnet spoke, "we can't let you."

"Why not?"

"Because she's White Diamond," Lars interupted again. "You know. The leader and most powerful of the Diamonds? The only reason we figure she hasn't deatomized this ship and everyone on it is because of you. My bet's on her stealing you and taking you back to the others."

"But I've gotta try."

"You really don't have to, Steven."

"Please?"

"No."

"Pleeease?"

"No!"

Then, in burst Jasper, looking cross. She grabbed Steven by the hand, her grip tight on him.

"I'm outta patience. The kid's seeing White."

"WHAT!?"

Garnet and Lars walked with Jasper as the four of them made their way to the interrogation room.

"Do you know what'll happen if White gets her hands on Steven!?" Lars angrily asked.

"I sure as hell do. She'll sing like a caged bird."

"Look at Steven, Jasper! He's not in any condition to-" Garnet shouted before being interupted.

"He WILL be once I put him in front of her!"

Jasper ignored the two's pleas as they neared their destination. She dragged Steven into the interrogation chamber, then shut the door behind them, leaving Garnet and Lars outside. Their muffled shouts and bangs on the door were lessened as the seconds passed. She let go of Steven's arm, leaving him rubbing it as a red mark developed. She tapped a few buttons at the control panel in front of the window. The door to the interrogation room opened.

"Get in there," Jasper spoke in a low voice. Steven didn't complain. He held his hands up and walked into White's interrogation room. He was greeted by a navy blue room and grey tile floor. He looked over to see a simple metal table and folding chairs. White Diamond was seated, her hands bound by a strange, glowing pair of cuffs, and her feet bound by glowing boots. The gem on her head was covered. White's expression didn't change.

"Steven Quartz Universe..."

She frowned, her expression changing to one of sadness.

"I'm so very sorry."

Steven's heart was beating fast. His pupils dilated.

"What?"

"I said, I'm sorry. Have a seat, please."

Steven wasted no time in sitting in the other metal chair across from White. He twiddled his thumbs, a bead of sweat dropping from his forehead.

"So, uh... I heard that you wanted to see me?"

"Yes."

"Why's that?"

"I just told you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything the other Diamonds put you through. I'm sorry about not doing anything while Blue hurt you. I'm sorry I didn't just take you away with me and head to my place, away from-"

"Blah, blah, fuckin' blah!" Jasper interrupted over the intercom. "You gonna tell us something worth listening to!?"

White rolled her eyes.

"Give me my bag. I have something for him."

Jasper growled into the microphone, and soon she came in with a duffel bag, slamming it on the table.

"Now, undo my binds like a good little subordinate," White said.

"Like hell."

"Uh..."

The two gems looked at Steven, who had just spoke up.

"White? I'll let you out. But promise that you won't leave! Ok?"

White smiled at him with the tender affection only a mother could give.

"I have no reason to break my promises, Steven."

"Okay. Jasper, how about you-"

He took one glance at Jasper to see she wasn't having it. She looked like she was about to blow a fuse. He could almost hear the steam coming out of her ears before...

"ARE YOU SERIOUS!? YOU CAN'T JUST LET HER OUT! WHAT'RE YOU GONNA DO WHEN SHE'S BACK ON THE STREET AND TOUCHING KIDS LIKE YOU!? POLITELY SUGGEST THAT-"

Suddenly, the covering surrounding White's gem shattered into pieces before evaporating into thin air. Then, Jasper was flung out of the room, and the door to the room shut tight. Steven could see her frantically pressing the button to the intercom, to no avail.

"I never liked her," White said, nonchalantly. "Oh, and the keys to my cuffs are on the floor. I made sure those were 'misplaced' before I made her leave."

Steven scurried over to the keys on the floor before heading back to White.

"Uh, how do I-?"

"Put the key in the lock in the middle, then press down on the other side."

It took Steven a few tries, and some reassurance from White, but soon enough, he got the cuffs off. Then her boots disintegrated into nothing, and just like that, White Diamond was unbound. And all she did was lay back in her seat and stretch.

"Ahh... These chairs make me so sore... And these idiots really thought I couldn't just do that this whole time? Well, of course they didn't. I am White Diamond."

"Miss Diamond?"

"Yes?... Oh, of course. The bag."

White reached into the duffel bag and pulled out the only thing in it.

"I brought this for you!"

White held out a pink stuffed lion with button eyes in front of Steven, a big, beaming smile on her face. Steven cautiously took the stuffed animal, caressing the toy's mane as White looked on.

"Um... Thank you," he spoke in a hush.

"You're welcome. Your friend Garnet gave it to me last month."

"She did...? How'd she find you?"

"I don't know, to be honest. But she landed in the middle of Schranz's special field! We didn't get off on the right foot."

"Who's Schranz?"

"Oh, yes, he was my... I don't want to say he was my boyfriend, but... He was my love. He passed away a few years ago."

"That's awful. Was he a boy gem?"

"Yes. And he was a lot like you at his age."

She took his hand, looking straight into his eyes.

"Ever since Schranz passed away... I've wanted to be with someone forever, Steven."

Steven's sick feeling came back. He knew where this was going.

"I... No, I... I don't want you to touch me..."

White stared back at him, an eyebrow raised in confusion.

"Touch you? No, no, not at all!... Instead, I..."

She grabbed at the gem in her head.

"I... I've decided..."

Steven wrestled White's arms away from her gem.

"N- No! You'll die if you do that!"

"I know! But if you let me finish-"

"I won't!"

*BANG!*

"What!?"

*shh-k!*

White began to seize and vocalize in pain as she recieved a voltage powerful enough to kill the fiercest of beasts. Then she dropped out of her chair and onto the floor, groaning in pain. Steven looked on, hugging the stuffed animal as Jasper and several others began to restrain White. Jasper gave Steven a glare.

"Don't just stand there, kid! Get the hell out!"

Steven ran out of the interrogation room, his heart pumping, sensing the blood and adrenaline rushing through him before he was caught by Garnet, sobbing into her clothes as she and Lars hugged him from both sides. The three spent a few minutes hugging it out before Lars stepped back.

"Steven? Did White Diamond... hurt you?"

"No," Steven responded, "no, she didn't. She, uh..."

He held out the stuffed lion.

"She gave me this... That was really nice of her," he said as he wiped his tears on his sleeve. "She also said that I reminded her of her dead boyfriend."

Lars and Garnet looked back at each other before Lars kneeled and gave Steven a pat on the back.

"Hey, uh... It's about time for dinner for you. How about we talk more about what happened later?"

"Alright," Steven replied as he walked off. "I was real hungry, anyways."

The two waved and smiled at Steven until he was out of earshot. Lars looked over at Garnet, looking skeptical.

"I hate to say it, but... I think he's lying."

"Me too."

--Meanwhile--

*SLAM*

"Dammit!... DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMN IT!"

She powered herself down.

"Anger's DEFINITELY not cutting it!"

She sat on the floor, her fists clenched as her gem radiated less and less energy.

"I... Ugh... I can't do it..."

"Why not?"

Blue swept in to comfort the new Diamond, only to be ignored.

"Rrrgh... I... I don't know what emotion brings out my power!"

"That's not a reason to give up, young Diamond."

"I know, it's just... I'm so tired... We've been working nonstop for days to try and figure out what unlocks my limits..."

"Hm..." another voice spoke up. "Have you thought about Steven?"

Yellow Diamond emerged from the shadows. The young Diamond scoffed at her.

"You think I haven't?"

"Try thinking of him... But with someone else."

The young Diamond sighed.

"Fine. After this, I'm calling it a day."

She closed her eyes. Her aura flared. Her diamond radiated.

"Now," Yellow said, her voice raised. "Imagine Steven with that... bitch. Garnet."

"What?"

"Just imagine. That shifting little harlot stole your one true love, what do you think she's doing with him? Picking flowers!?"

Electricity began shooting out of the young Diamond's body. Yellow grinned.

"Yes... Now, remember the rebels we told you about? Bismuth? Lars? What do you think they're doing with him? I wonder what sort of trouble Lars could make Steven get into!"

The young Diamond balled her fists. The ground beneath her began to shake, and broken segments began to rise. She mumbled obscenities to herself as Yellow pointed at the training dummy in the middle of the room, whispering into the youngling's ear.

"See that? That's Lars. And he's just fffucked your boyfriend. Turned him gay. Just like that."

*STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP*

The young Diamond caused the ground to shatter with every angry, hate-filled step she took. Her normally dark skin took on a tinge of green as she pulled a fist back, her aim squarely on the dummy.

"RrrrrrRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHH!"

She pumped a fist back and then forward, the raw energy emitting from it blasting forth in a visible pulse. It hit the dummy with precision, causing it to explode on impact. Yellow looked on, confident.

"Very good."

Then the young Diamond raised her hand, her body rising in the air. A small ball of green and black energy gathered in her palm, growing by the second as its light - and mass - soon overtook everything else in the room. The building began to break apart, being absorbed by the mass of the power ball. Blue's eyes widened as she backed off, shielding herself.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? STOOOOP! YOU'RE GOING TO DESTROY THE WHOLE PLANET!"

All that could be seen was green as the surrounding buildings disintegrated and disappeared into the power ball.

"CONNIIIIIE! YOU'VE GOT TO STOP IIIIIT!"

Yellow pushed Blue aside, looking giddy.

"FANTASTIC, CONNIE! I ADMIRE YOUR ABILITY TO DESTROY SO MUCH, AND SO SOON AFTER-!"

"AND I ADMIRE YOUR ABILITY TO DIE!"

Connie effortlessly hurled the massive, city sized power ball at the two Diamonds, making them hold their hands out. Yellow's smile was the widest it had been in centuries.

"What RAW POWER! You're actually making me put effort into this one!"

"NOOO!" Blue shouted. "THERE'S STILL PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET! WE HAVE TO ABSORB ITS ENERGY OR ELSE-"

"OOPS!"

Yellow pushed the ball of energy down onto the planet's surface, the mass quickly disappearing beneath the planet's surface before a roaring wall of fire emerged from the crater. The surface began to crack and break apart before the planet itself exploded in a spectacular display of green energy. Then, the energy itself dissipated into nothing. The three Diamonds stood out in now-empty space. Connie used her new space breathing powers to their full extent as the green on her naturally dark skin subsided back into her diamond. She felt a hand on her shoulder.

"Connie Maheswaran," Yellow spoke with pride, "on this day forward, you shall be known as... Green Diamond."

Blue Diamond broke down into tears. Yellow grinned at her.

"Cheer up," she said with a sneer. "No one's gonna miss a shithole like Kizuju anyways."
