《Steven Universe - Don't break this one!》Chapter 7

« I'll lead the brunt of the invasion. » Yellow exclaims.
Pink Diamond is moving as fast as possible. She tries to stay behind her big sister, who rushes down the hall like an arrow. It's difficult to keep up.
« Is this really necessary? » Pink asks.
« Yes. It took us almost ten millennia to perfect our technique. This is your first colony, so I want you to watch me in action. Next time, this process will be entirely under your care. »
« Very well, Yellow. »
Pink isn't unhappy that another Diamond is taking care of this. She wouldn't have known where to start. The corridor opens onto a square where thousands of uniformed Gems await, as well as a hundred ships. Their new uniform was created in the colors of Pink Diamond. This is the army and fleet she dreamed of in her youth. Why does it all seem so irrelevant to her now? Her soldiers salute in a perfectly choreographed movement, uttering a clear:
« Welcome, excellency! We are at your service! »
Pink shivers before such a sight. She feels the weight of a gigantic responsibility crashing onto her shoulders. The Gems fall back into parade rest. There are all kinds: Peridots, Amethysts, Bismuths, Nephrites... Two Lapis Lazuli also stand a little to the side. They wear Blue's uniform. She only lends her specialists, nothing more. A Lapis terraforms planets and Blue Diamond knows how to take care of this task better than anyone. They are therefore, with Sapphires, the only Gems that no one can produce except her. Yellow and White have tried, of course, and failed.
Impossible not to see the huge pair of pink legs that sit at the end of the square. So here is her famous ship, the one that everyone talks about constantly. Blue and Yellow's ships are in the shape of an arm, and White's a body. Pink inherited the legs, literally the most subordinate of any positions.

« She's beautiful, isn't she? »
« Who is? »
« Your ship, of course! White made me work on it for weeks! »
« I imagine that this could only be her idea. »
« Indeed! Legs, nothing less! She still sees you as the force that sustains us! I imagine this is... appropriate. »
Pink hadn't looked at the problem so positively. She finds it charming that Yellow is suddenly so optimistic, but she doubts that White actually saw the gift that way.
« Okay, let's get to work! Everyone gets on board! Forward! » Yellow concludes, pointing at the horizon.
Pink’s pearl arrives just then, settling next to her mistress. Her outfit is intended for space travel. She remains silent. This departure seems terrifying to her. The poor little one does not want to leave, but will follow her matriarch wherever necessary. Pink Diamond starts moving. She approaches the vehicle with determination in her steps, climbs aboard and sits in front of the controls. As the Diamond prepares for takeoff, her foot slips: the pair of legs fly up in such a ridiculous way that any individual with a minimum of wit would burst out laughing in a second. Her Pearl remains impassive and simply says:
« A magnificent takeoff, my Diamond! »
Pink chuckles. It was an inelegant start, but what does it matter? Nothing can scare her anymore. Her second chance awaits at the end of this path into the unknown. In a few years, she will have it in her hands and... her mistakes will finally disappear into oblivion. Soon. Very soon. You just have to keep hoping.

Displaced
Sucked into the void without warning, a handful of people from around the globe suddenly find themselves in the foreign world of Scyria, a place filled with people who can jump three times their height, conjure fire from thin air, and perform any number of other inhuman feats. Scattered across the realm and armed with newfound powers far greater than those of the native Scyrians, they each struggle to find their path in this unfamiliar reality. Their unforeseen arrival sends tremors throughout the world, toppling a centuries-long age of relative peace, prosperity, and progress as they each leave their mark on the world in their own ways. But Scyria has its own share of intrigue, even without these unwelcome guests. A major metropolis is wiped from existence out of nowhere, triggering a manhunt across the continent for those deemed responsible. Two feuding nations decide to bring their hostilities to a new level. Blades clash, nations fall, and plots years in the making begin to reveal themselves. This is the story of some unwilling trespassers, taken from their lives against their will and thrown into situations they barely understand. This is the story of some unfortunate Scyrians, their lives blown apart by the newcomers’ sudden and destabilizing existence. This is the story of Scyria, a world with a lost past buried beneath millenia. But as both the Earthlings and Scyrians are about to find out, sometimes the past doesn’t stay buried forever... I marked the story as having Gore, Sexual Content, and Traumatising content because it does contain a bit of all three, though not what I believe is a significant amount. Just wanted to be safe. It does contain a whole lot of profanity, though. That one is very much deserved. I post one chapter ahead on Patreon here, you can get it for a dollar: https://www.patreon.com/IrateRapScallion My Discord server for discussing the story and whatever else: https://discord.gg/uycZBbv Please vote for my story on Top Web Fiction by clicking here: http://topwebfiction.com/vote.php?for=displaced Thanks!

Jalan Suram : The 100 Fire Holders
"Why us?" Still staring at the unusually stationary fire of the candle he was holding, Agung voiced the questions in our mind. "Out of 2 million people living in this city, why are we the chosen ones?" As if on cue, the eerie laughter of children could be heard above us. Holding our own candle tightly, we resolved to ignore them and continued our discussion. It was a matter of life or death after all. More than half of the initial participants had fallen and the building became more crowded as the result. There were now more ghosts than the living and each step was filled with danger from the unknown. Either we solved all the questions now or we would become another addition to the ghost camp. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There was one thing Novita found out after she accepted an invitation to a suspicious event from a seemingly legal company. Crowded didn't exactly mean safe. As more and more variables were added to the dangerous ritual, the higher the risk of death. At the same time, the higher the risk was, the better the rewards for it. But in the end, was it worth it? Note : This series was posted on scribblehub.com under the same name.
