"Dad , Someday I am afraid that I might lose interest in Steven Universe and that makes me sad."

-Aven

"You might. So let us celebrate that interest by enjoying it now and making stories about them so that we might never forget."

"It was a normal day in Beach city and as often than not Steven was walking with his favorite guardian , Garnet on the main road. Steven was all bubbly as always as he greeted almost everyone on the street. He waved at the postman delivering mail and the shopkeepers who were just opening their stores. Everyone knew Steven and his guardians after they have saved the city countless times from gem creatures who want nothing more than to eat them. 

An Ice cream Shop keeper said hi to Steven and gave him an ice cream cone with 2 dripping scoops of Vanilla flavored goodness. He started to eat away as he continued walking on the Main street.

At the end of the corner he saw a homeless man who wore a tattered shirt and a cloak made of plastic. The man shivered despite the warm air. Steven decided that he did not need his own jacket all that much and tried to hand the man his jacket. In doing so the homeless man let go of his plastic cloak and the wind blew it away."My favorite cloak!!" the man shouted as he tried to stand up but collapsed on wobbly knees.Trying to reach for the thing he found most dear.

"I'll get it!!!" Steven said as he bounded toward the street and forgot about the oncoming cars from both sides.

The streets were filled with the sound of skidding tires as cars from both sides simultaneously halted and turned to avoid hitting the boy that was in the middle of the street. The cars were hit from other cars from behind and some of those cars tumbled toward the shops on either side of the road setting some of them on fire.Screams could be heard as people from the shops flooded the streets in hopes of escaping the flaming buildings. Within seconds some of the cars exploded causing various car parts to rain down on people and buildings alike.

In the midst of all this Steven jumped and caught the plastic cloak. "I got it!" He said looking back to where the homeless man and Garnet were standing. Both were staring slack jawed at all the damage while Steven remained untouched by anything but his enthusiasm.

"What happened?" He asked.

At the end of the corner he saw a homeless man who wore a tattered shirt and a cloak made of plastic. The man shivered despite the warm air. Steven decided that he did not need his own jacket all that much and tried to hand the man his jacket. In doing so the homeless man let go of his plastic cloak and the wind blew it away.... And Garnet Caught it with so much speed that surprised Steven. She gave it to the homeless man who grinned a toothless grin at her for saving his favorite cloak.

Garnet hurriedly carried Steven away from the homeless man and stared at the traffic as cars steadily sped by.

"What was that about?" Steven asked innocently.

"It's nothing Steven.Now lets go somewhere safe." Garnet said in her cool and even voice.

Steven shrugged his shoulder , held Garnets hand and with the other finished what was left of the melting vanilla ice cream.

The End
