The Story
Steven and Pink Pearl were laughing about Yellow Diamond's ridiculously long neck after she went out of the room. Then, Steven felt a bit of something soft and alien climb up his throat. He coughed and retched, trying to get it out. He coughed up a bit of something strange into his hand. It was a bit of his mom's hair!

The room tuned black and Pink Pearl faded away away into the abyss. Steven felt sick. He felt another, slightly larger mass of hair at the back of his throat. It didn't feel like something his body produced, like normal vomit; it was more like something alien, something that had come from somewhere entirely different and had forced its way into and now out of his body.

The void filled with an eerie white glow, which made Steven look up. White Diamond towered over him in all her spiky majesty. She had an evil grin on her face, so abominably evil that it made Steven retch up another pink curl. It fell on the ground, somehow not slimy despite having been inside Steven's body. It fell from Steven's mouth onto the floor like alien vomit.

White Diamond's evil smile widened, as if she wanted this to happen, as if it were her twisted plan hatching out of its egg, as if she were the one reaching inside his body and placing his mother's pink curls inside his stomach.

Steven felt his whole stomach fill up with fluff. It forced its way up his throat and into and out of his mouth like an octopus crawling out of a hole in a rock. It was like he had a colony of parasites inside him that were now flinging themselves out of his mouth, as if his body were suddenly too poisonous for them to live.

A storm of hair flew out of his mouth, obscuring his sight. Steven made a horrible retching noise that didn't sound as human as it should have. There was so much hair that it seemed like he was throwing up his insides, turning inside out.

Steven woke up with a start. It had just been a nightmare, and now he was back in his nice, cozy outer space room with all his friends. But a sweaty chill still remained in his body as he remembered the horror of his horrible dream.
