An Outcast (Steven Universe x Male Gem Reader x MCU)

Earth Part 1

"Well, considering that you're here now, how about I show you around, and introduce you to the rest of the townspeople." Steven offered, gesturing towards a large group of other humans behind them.

"That would be nice." Azurite said with a nod of his head as the control panel opened on his left arm. He pressed a few buttons on it, and much to everyone's suprise Azurite's ship turned invisible.

"...How did you do that?" Steven asked what was on everyone's mind.

"It's an upgrade I installed along with a friend of mine. You have no idea how much I worked for this to be possible. It would have been much easier if I had more advanced model but I feel a huge attachment to it. I've been using it for as long as I can remember." Azurite explained. This wasn't a lie. This ship is his very first one, which was given to him by Dragan after he died of an old age. It was his final gift to Azurite, for which he was very grateful to the man who teached him everything he knew in hand-hand in combat.

Steven nodded his head in understanding, as he began walking towards the other humans, motioning Azurite to follow him.

"Okay, Azurite. They don't seem to be suspicious of you. Just keep your cool." Azurite thought as he followed Steven, hoping to get this contract done as fast as he could.

-----

As much as Azurite didn't want to admit that to himself, he actually enjoyed meeting those humans that Steven introduced him to. They were welcoming despise him showing up today, and seeing how he got along with the townspeople, Steven decided to take Azurite to Little Homeworld. From what he heard from Steven, it as a small city for gems to live around humans in peace.

The first thing he saw when they entered this town were gems, a lot of them. They were walking through the streets, talking with each other, or working on something. Azurite was eyeing them carefully. He was trying to find a certain type of gem, and much to his luck, there were a few of them living there, and now, he just had to came up with a way how to take one of them without anyone noticing.

"There they are!" He heard Steven say, as he turned around to the direction that he was pointing at and he could feel that the world almost stopped when he saw her. It was Pink's pearl. She was there when the Diamonds banished him.

"Please don't recognize me, please don't recognize me..." Azurite kept repeating those words in his mind as they approached them.

When they greeted each other,  one of them, a Peridot pointed at Azurite and asked, "Is this a gem that came into the ship we saw?" 

"He's not a gem. He's a Zaran and his name in Yondu." Steven explained.

"Hi..." Azurite, still a little nervous about the fact that Pink's Pearl was standing in front of him.

"A Zaran? Cool. It's the first time when we have a visitor that isn't a gem." Amethyst stated, eyeing Azurite, which made him more nervous than he already was, but he was doing good job at hiding it.

"That's what I told him." Steven chuckled.

"It's nice to meet you, Yondu." Bismuth said.

"It's always nice meeting new people." Garnet added.

"Pleasure is all mine." Azurite said with a bow of his head.

"Yondu, why did you come here? I assume that you came here for a reason. Peridot asked. A Lapis Lazuli that stood next to her, nodded her head in agreement. They didn't know why, but they had a feeling that Azurite came here for a specified reason.

"Yondu has a friend from Earth. His name is Peter Quill, and he wants to find a good gift for him. He saw my massage and thought it'll be a good idea to come here to find it." Steven explained.

"I know that this reason may be childlish, but when it comes to Quill and his crew. I want to make their gifts special. They showed me light when I was lost. They were one of the people who made me realize that there are still good things in this world." Azurite added. This wasn't a lie, before he met them, the only people he talked with Shi'ra and the bartender on Knowhere. He didn't count The Collector, or the Whitebound brothers, or other people who were giving him contracts, because he didn't talk with them because he liked them.

Steven titled his head, as Azurite said those words. It must've been one of the reasons why he was covering his forehead, but what made him think that everything in this world was bad.

Steven's friend nodded their heads in understanding. Everyone except for Pearl who couldn't get rid of the feeling that she already saw this man, but she couldn't remember from where.

"Hey, Pearl? Are you okay? You've been staring weirdly at this guy from the moment you set your eyes on him." Amethyst whispered to Pearl.

"I just have a feeling that I saw his face already, but I can't remember when..." was Pearl's reply.

------

An hour after Steven introduced Azurite to his friends in Little Homeworld, they both walked through the entrance to the place which was called "Fish Stew Pizza" or something like that, where they would have their meal.

"C'mon. Let's pick a seat." Steven said to him as he and Azurite made their way to the closest seats that were empty. He didn't know if he was going to like the food they serve here, but he told him to pick whichever he wanted so, Steven took him a place where they sell food called pizza, or something like that.

He knew that he as a gem didn't have to eat, but he actually enjoyed it. The day after he met Darnel and Freddy, Darnel took him to one of his friends that lived nearby the forest where they crashed 

After they gave Freddy a proper burial,  he, Darnel and Darnel's friend shared a meal together. At first, Azurite was a bit hesitant about trying it, but after he took first bite, he took another, and another. At first, He found this whole eating thing weird, but as the time passed, he found this process to be quite enjoyable.

"Hey, Steven. How may I help you?" The gem waitress smiled, revealing a set of sharp teeth, as she approached their table.

"I'll have the usual." Steven answered.

The waitress nodded her head as she wrote that down a piece of paper, before looking up at Azurite, "What about you, sir?"

"Suprise me." Azurite told her.

Several minutes later, the waitress came back with their food. When she put the trays with the food on the table, Steven and Azurite quickly noticed that something was odd about their meal. On top of their pizzas were raw fishes and seafood.

"Excuse me, but I think it's raw." Azurite said.

The gem looked at the pizzas, "Oh, I'm sorry. I'll take it right back." She picked up both trays from the table, and began to walk back into the kitchen, "Hey, Nephrite! You're supposed to cook the fish before putting it on pizza!"

"I'm sorry about it, they're still learning." Steven told Azurite.

"It's alright. I understand." He assured him with a raised palm, smilling to himself.

For now, everything was going according to his plan. They didn't seemed to see him as a possible danger to them, and it seemed like he was slowly earning their trust. They probably saw him as a simple guy who just wants to find a good gift for his friend.

Now he had to find a way how to get himself close to Pink's Pearl, or one of the Pearls that live in this "Little Homeworld" thing not too far from this town.

And if he was lucky enough, he'd get out of here with a Pearl as fast as it was possible.

The less time he spent on this planet, the less time they had to learn about the real reason why he came here, and his true identify.
