I don't own Steven Universe in any way, shape, or form. I do however own my OC and his gear (not the concepts behind them)
As Pearl, Garnet, Amethyst and Steven were on a mission, after finding and bubbling the corrupt gem Steven passed out on the way back to the warp, Pearl was freaking out and said, "I knew it was too dangerous to bring Steven along!" Garnet says, "Yes it was dangerous but Steven didn't get hurt." Amethyst added, "Yeah Pearl, besides Steven had his bubble." Steven suddenly woke up and shook his head, and Pearl asked, "Are you ok?" Steven says, "Yeah but I think I had a vision." Pearl says, "That's impossible Rose never had any visions at all so how could you get visions when Rose didn't, it's impossible." As she talks Steven thinks, 'Oh great, here we go again Pearl's saying this and that about mom and expecting things to be the exact same with me even though I'm only part gem' Steven says, "Well I don't know if it was a vision or not but I saw several images when I passed out, I could explain better when we get back."
Back at the temple, Garnet asked, "So what did you see Steven?" Steven says, "I'm not really sure how to explain it, but I saw a four-pointed star with wings, a design that looked like a bird, and a pair of eyes with the pupils slit and curved." Pearl looked to Garnet and asked, "Could it be?" Garnet says, "Well Steven, back during the early years of the war there was a gem that wasn't part of Homeworld forces or part of the rebellion. The gem wasn't like us, it didn't have a physical form rather it chose a human of pure heart to bond with, the gem was called 'Dragon Ruby' and it could easily match me in power but it always required a pure heart to sustain itself. Your mother suspected the Dragon Ruby was the embodiment of earth fighting back against Homeworld but after several hundred years it disappeared, everyone from both Homeworld and the rebels wondered if it ever existed."
Steven said, "Well after those images I saw a large crystal with an inscription that read, 'The purest heart will awaken the ruby from its millennia long slumber, one with eyes of dragons and champion of ancient avian who fought through countless trials seeking to prevent the same pain he has suffered' but the crystal with the inscription was near the Kindergarten but not at the kindergarten." Pearl said, "We should go see if it will cause problems in the future." Steven asks, "Can I go to?" Pearl says, "No it's too dangerous." But Amethyst counters, "C'mon Pearl, let Steven come I mean he did see it as he was unconscious." Garnet said, "Yes, he saw it so he could show us where it is."
At the Kindergarten, Steven shuddered saying, "This place is creepier than last time." Steven then lead the gems in the direction that he and Amethyst first entered from, then they saw the crystal that Steven saw in his vision in the distance. At the crystal they realized it was bigger up close, soon they heard something in the distance Steven then said, "That sounds like an engine, but what is it?" Amethyst turned into a bird and flew in the direction of the sound, minutes later she came back and said, "It's a guy on a bike with an engine."
On the horizon a silhouette appeared, if someone was nearby they would've seen a black haired boy with piercing teal eyes behind his goggles with a seafoam green band and the motorcycle was blue-green and had a katana stashed next to the seat. He is Korogra Kanbara, who has dealt with supernatural occurrences before and fought them off with his katana he fought to ensure people's safety and to prevent anyone from going through what he has. Currently he's heading toward where Steven and the Crystal gems are, as he gets closer a creature appears from underground and rushes him, sighing in annoyance he crouches on top of the seat with his left hand still on the throttle while he grabs his katana from its position with his right and in one smooth motion unsheathed it from its scabbard.
He then launches himself at the creature and plunges his sword into its chest and tears upward slicing clean through and backflips off and, while in midair, catches the shard that created the creature in an orb of blue fire, Aura. He then perfectly lands on his motorcycle, which was still going, he then sheaths his katana and returns it to its position on the side of his motorcycle, then he pushes a button and a canister pops up from the side of the seat Korogra then stores the orb in the canister which receded back under the seat. He then glides to a stop next to the Gems and Steven, hopping off his motorcycle he repositions his goggles to his forehead and says to himself, "Now what drew me here?" He then mutters, "Draginigon" and his pupils slit and curve while his eyes change from teal to a stormy grey with lightning crashing above an inferno. He turns to the crystal and when he puts his hand on it a symbol in the shape of a bird glows on his right shoulder blade.
The crystal also begins to glow and a voice says, "Ah so you are the next to be chosen by the Dragon Ruby, tell me who are you, Heir to the Dragon Ruby?" Korogra, unphased by the power behind the voice states aloud, "I am Korogra Susanoo Issun Paildra Wakka Kanbara, crown prince of the destroyed kingdom of Jikkanu and heir to the destroyed village Ryūgakure." The voice booms, "Very well then Korogra, do you swear to protect this planet and its inhabitants as to the best of your ability?" Korogra replied, "Yes, this planet is my home and I will gladly risk everything to protect it, besides years ago I made a vow to my best friend as he died to always protect this world." The voice said, "Then accept the Dragon Ruby, for you are the only one since myself to fulfill the requirements to have this gem of earth." The crystal cracked and a gem that resembled a four pointed star with wings appeared and became a part of Korogra surfacing on his left shoulder.
The Gems were shocked and Steven said, "That was so cool!" Turning to them Korogra said, "Thanks, name's Korogra Kanbara, ah but you probably knew that from the spirit of the former master of the Dragon Ruby addressing me as such, but who are you and what are those three?" Steven said, "Oh I'm Steven, and those three are Pearl, Garnet, and Amethyst. They're the Crystal Gems that protect Beach City, I'm half-gem half-human." Korogra was silent for a minute then says, "Ah okay, I was just getting filled in by the Dragon Ruby on Gems like them."
Pearl asked, "What happened to that gem shard?" Korogra placed his hand on a pad on his motorcycle and the seat popped open to reveal a storage space with several canisters containing similar shards, he then said, "I put it in a separate canister to these so it won't become one of those creatures again and when this gets filled I take the canisters to a pocket dimension I opened and empty them while reinforcing the orb of aura around them. Why?" Garnet says, "Those are the shards of gems that fell in the war between the Crystal Gems and the Gem Homeworld." Korogra says, "Yeah I figured something like that when I first encountered those creatures, I mean if the shards where controlling the creatures they must've been sentient at some point."
A/N: Okay wow, I wasn't expecting to write a Steven Universe fic but here I am... Anywho next time Korogra will meet up with the Gems and Steven in Beach City where he'll join them on their adventures at the same time he'll transfer all the Gems he poofed and bubbled to the shard vault.
