chapter 21

Hello everyone! Welcone to my new chapter! You may want to re read the ending of the last chapter, as i have changed some things around to make this fit. And who ever can translate the writing, i will give a invisible cookie!
Anyways, I hope you enjoy this chapter!

You groan as you rub your eyes as the sun shone in through the window. There was a shadow in a shape if a square and it hovered over my face. Looking up, you saw a peice of paper stuck to your window. Why was that there? Getting up, you shivered as your feet touched the cold floor.

You walked over, enjoying the stretch as you walked. You didn't really have bones to stretch, but still, it felt good to get out of bed. Opening the window, you grabbed (picture is above and head, I wrote that!) the paper and looked it over. It had......some weird message on it. It looked familiar some how. Almost as it you've seen this writing before. Well, not this one particular, but the language seems familiar, but you couldn't place your finger on it.

"Good morning (name)! " Steven cheered as he entered your room. " Oh, uh, hey Steven. " you greeted as you looked back at him. You sigh "Steven, we need to talk, but after breakfast. I found something, and I don't think it's a good thing. '' you said and Steven nodded with a bit of worry and curiosity. You both stepped out of the room, and Steven grabbed a bowl of cereal and poured some milk into it with you did the same. Sure yo u didn't need to eat as a gem but you have been doing it for so long, it's a bit hard not to do so. "And Steven, we need to tell the gems too" you said. As if on cue the warp pad when off and out stepped pearl Garnet and amethyst. "Tell us wha" pearl asked ask she asked as she folded her arms looking at the both of you.

You sighed as they sat on the couch alomgbsith Steven and they all looked at you and you explained to them how you found a peice of paper on your window when you woke up. Pear seemed a bit confused and and so did garnet and amethyst. " I remember it from somewhere......but I can remember where it was from." She said an d you nodded "exactly."

Steven began to think and slowly he began to smile "maybe peridot knows! She's been on homeworld more recently then we have " he says and youh nod "Well, at least with information about homeworld" you add and pearl smiled. "Hey (y/n), shouldn't you know? I mean, you are one of the diamonds" amethyst said and you shook your head " no, this would be more recent and besides, they wouldn't let me see anything. Said I would creat even more damage of I knew too much" you said and she nod.
Steven smiled as he grabbed your hand "come on (y/n)!" He said smiling as you both ran out of the temple and headed to the barn.

Once at the barn you both entered inside and saw peridot and lapis ready to head into their little pool that was outside. "Oh, hello Steven, hello (y/n) " lapis greeted with a wave. You smiled back as you waved as well and Steven gave a smile. "Hello lapis." You smiled and you turned to peridot "Peridot, we have a question. You have been on homeworld more recently than any of us, So we wanna see what you think it" you say and she nods, a bit worried of what be to come.

After explaining what you found, she began to study it as if thinkinv heavily. But after a few seconds, her eyes widen. You looked at her in a bit of confusion " what is it?" Steven asks. Peridot look at him and then you "y/n, this is irken. " she said. "What's irken?" You asked, Steven just as equally confused as you were. Peridot shook her head " you wouldn't know. This happened after you left homeworld. The diamonds were using so many resorses loo king for you. So they had asked then for help. And by ask, I mean forced them. The irkens great tech but ours was much better. They were forced to help us gain back our resources. Our homeworld and their would are opposite of each other so they don't really communicate any more. And thw one who wrote this, his name is....zim...." she says readin g what the page had to say.

You nod with Steven looking at her with his mouth hanging open. "So they're things other than the diamonds?!" He said panicked he said and she nodded " yes, and if you tou d this, there must be a irken here. And there would only be one reason they'd be here" she says

" to take over earth.." she says.

You frown as you marched into the temple into your room and vegan to pack. "Um.....y/n?" Steven asked "what are you doing?" You sigh as you look at him. I'm going to the Irken empire. I will go to the tallest to see who this zim character is. Then, in going to make sure he wished he never took a step in earth" you day and Steven sighs. "That could be dangerous...." he said. You gave a small laugh. " Name something we've done that fodnr have anything dangerous involved" you say and he gave a small smile.

"Y/n, Steven, where are you going now?" Pearl asked as she stood up from the couch. You let out a sigh " me and Steven need to go to this irken empire, a, or I should say another alien has come to earth but it's no Gem. It's trying to take over earth. " you say and pearl nods " you'll need a ship! " she says and she went off to go get instructions and  materials from the barn and to get peridot. Garnet stood up and you look up at her. Why was she so tall? She gave you a small smile ad she put her hand on her shoulder "take care of him" she said and you smiled back.

"I will"
