Thank you everyone for the wonderful support on the first chapter! :D 


Steven and Amethyst run towards the counter of Beach Citywalk Fries as Y/n calmly followed behind them. The stores owner known as Mr. Fryman was entering the building.

"Hey, Fryman, give me the bits!" Steven says.

"The bits?" Y/n questions.

Mr. Fryman flips a we're closed sign. "Steven, we're closed."

"Aww, what?" Steven says disappointed.

Amethyst hits counter now. "Give 'em the bits!" She begins chants while continuously hitting the counter. "The BITS. The BITS."

Steven joins in the chanting now.

"The BITS! The BITS! The BITS!" They both chant while banging on the counter.

"Okay, okay! Take it easy on the counter, will ya?" Mr Fryman says relenting as he goes to retrieve the fry bits.

"Yes!" Steven and Amethyst says as they hi-five.

Mr. Fryman empties the bits into a paper bag. "I can give you three actual fries if you want." He says handing the bag to Steven.

"Just the bits, please." Steven says politely as he takes the bag. "Thanks! Okay Y/n time to try the bits!" Steven says holding up the bag  as Amethyst and him start walking away while eating the bits. Y/n follows beside as he looks at the bag. Curiosity gets the better of him when Steven offers the bag towards him and Y/n takes a small handful before eating them.

"Hey, these aren't bad actually." Y/n admits.

"Right." Amethyst adds in agreement.

 "Ah, sunset, my favorite time of day." Steven sighs content as he looks towards the ocean. "When the sun goes down, and the second sun gets bigger and bigger in the sky."

Y/n's brow just raises in confusion while Amethyst bursts out laughing as she look up to the sky. 

"Yeah, that big hot second su... " Amethyst gasps, noticing a strange orb in the sky. "Oh no, what is that doing here?"

"Huh? What is it?" Steven asks but Amethyst picks him up, causing him to drop the bag of bits. "Ah, my bits!" Steven cries Amethyst carries him away.

Y/n sighs as he begins to jog to catch up to them.


Back near Steven's house Garnet and Pearl were looking through a telescope,  observing the strange orb.

"This is bad." Garnet comments.

"Look at the size of it, I had no idea these things were so big!" Pearl says 

"Garnet! Pearl!" Amethyst cries out while running towards them carrying Steven while Y/n who had caught up to them ran alongside.

Pearl begins to look visibly annoyed. "We saw. Some of us are trying to protect humanity. Where were you?" She asks.

Amethyst puts Steven down now "... Eating fry bits. "She replies causing Pearl to groan.

"Oh, can I see?" Steven asks as he peers through the telescope at the large orb. "Woah." The orb rotates and opens into a eye now. "It's a giant eyeball! Awesome!"

"NOT awesome!" Pearl interrupts. "It's a Red Eye!"

"A red eye?! It's going to infect us all!" Steven cries.
