~Introduction~

An Escape Pod crashes into the soil of the Earth, And a gem crawls out, And falls to the ground. Then, In the distance, She heard a sound, Turning into a song, As she listened, She felt the fabric of her mind being torn apart, Forgeting where she was, What she was doing, And who she was. Her body turned into a band of light, Taking on a new form. At first she looked like normal, But the you could see she started to grow fur, Then her hands turned into monstrous paws. Growls started coming from the beast that she was turning into, Her skinny arms turned into large, furry limbs. She grew a fluffy tail, Then 4 cat ears, Spikes sprouted from her back, the beast wailed in pain, as it fell to the ground. She was no longer a gem, But a beast, She forgot all that she was in an instant, She was now corrupted.

Cat's Eye woke up, Remembering everything that her dream held, But then, The memory of it evaporated in an instant. Forgeting about what happened all over again. She was still the beast, But only smaller. The island that she crashed on didn't have much danger, So she only kept the monstrous form for only a few thousand years, Until growing smaller. She now resembled a small cat, with light blue fur. Her gem on her right eye, shimmering in the light. She looked around, then started scrounging in the dirt for food. She wasn't able to get much energy from her gem because she was corrupted, So she eats and sleeps to conserve it. Just then, a mouse jumped out from behind a bush. Cat's Eye crouched down low, So the mouse did not see her. Then, She jumped into the air and pounced on the mouse. But then, The mouse slipped between her paws. She ran after the creature for a few seconds before hearing a sound. It sounded familiar to her, But she didn't know what it was. End's up, It was a warp pad.

Chapter 1

Steven was very excited. He was going on another mission. Garnet said she sensed activity on a nearby island, So they were going to check it out. Garnet: "Alright Gems, Weapons!" Pearl pulled out her smooth spear, Amethyst pulled out her rough whip, Garnet summoned her gauntlets, And Steven pulled out his shield. Garnet: "Ready?" The CGs: "READY!" Garnet: "Let's Go!" The Crystal Gems ran out from the warp pad. Steven: "So, What are we looking for?" Garnet: "I sensed some corrupted gem activity on this island. Our job is to find it and bubble it." Steven: "Got it." Suddenly, The gems heard howling in the distance. Garnet: "This way." Steven wanted to follow, But just then he saw a blue, fluffy tail go behind a bush. He wanted to know what it was, So, he followed it. Once he came out into the open behind the bush, He saw the creature. It was Cat's Eye. Cat's Eye squealed in fright and ran. Steven: "Wait!" Cat's Eye ran into the bushes. Steven ran after her. The bushes lead to a field, So now Steven could see Cat's Eye clearly. He noticed that she had a gem. Steven: "You're….Corrupted…" She growled, then ran through the field, and into a nearby cave. Steven: "It's okay, I'm not going to hurt you." She hissed at Steven, feeling trapped. Steven: "You're acting the exact same as Centipeetle…" She crept into the corner, Trying to stay out of sight. Steven: "It's okay...I can heal you.." Steven tried to reasure Cat's Eye, But she wouldn't budge. But then, Steven got an idea. Steven pulled up his shirt. Steven: "See? I have a Rose Quartz gem. I can heal you…" Cat's Eye stared at the sight. A gem like her? Here? She thought that they all were corrupted like her back in the war. This thought wasn't very clear because she was corrupted, But she could feel that Steven could help. She started to walk up to Steven, But her corrupted side started to hesitate. It could be dangerous, But the side that she was still in control in, She forced herself to move forward. She knew he could help. Cat's Eye was a few inches away from Steven's gem. Then, Playfully, She rolled on her side and batted at his gem. Steven: "Aww..So cute! Here, this will help," Steven licked his hand and smothered it on Cat's Eye's gem. She completely flipped out. She ran up the walls of the cave, Screeching and growling, Then jagged rocks rose from the sides of the cave, Some of them almost hitting Steven. Once she calmed down, Something happened. Her gem started to glow, Then her body turned into a ray of light. She rose up, Trying to take a new form. Her paws became hands, And she started to look normal, But then, Her body glitched and took on her form of the monster, Resembling a large cat. It rose from the ground and roared. With huge claws piercing through her paws, The light of her body started to fade, But then she took on the form of her resembling a small cat. The light faded. She kept her old form. Steven sighed at the sight. It was just like when he tried to heal Centipeetle. He can't heal corrupted gems. Steven: "But...I need to heal you! It's not fair that you were turned into this!" Cat's Eye stared at him for a long time, With sad, Longing eyes. Then, she slowly started to walk to the corner of the cave. But then, The Crystal Gems ran in.
