Chapter 1
The Valley of Peace was going about it's normal day. The Jade Palace Masters, known as the Furious Five, were amidst training with each other in the art of Kung Fu. There was Tigress, a tiger that was the master of the Tiger style, Monkey, a howler monkey that was the master of the monkey style, Crane, a crane that was the master of the Crane style, Viper, a viper that was the master of the viper style, and Mantis, a praying mantis that was the master of the mantis style. Then there was the dragon warrior, Po, who was a giant panda and used his own size and weight to fight with his own kung-fu talent. They were trained by a Red Panda named Master Shifu.
Down in the village, a villager shop-owner was being robbed by mediocre Croc bandits, led by Fung.
Fung: Little goat! Tremble in fear as we forcefully redistribute your wealth in our direction!
Villager: No.
Fung: What? No? That's not how this works. We're bandits, and we're robbing you.
Villager: I understand how it would work if you were real bandits. But you're a joke. So how it does work is...buy something or get out!
The Crocs left the establishment, having made no money.
Fung: You know what we really need, guys? A good leader.
Croc: Uh, I don't think you should say that. What if Tong Fo is listening?
Fung: Tong Fo isn't our leader anymore, remember?
Child voice: So, you're looking for a new leader?
Fung: Who said that?
Child voice: I did.
A human child landed in front of them. He was chubby, and had a red shirt with a yellow star on it, blue jeans, and sandals. His hair was also curly, and his eyes were blood red.
Fung: What and who are you supposed to be?
Steven: I'm a human being, and my name, is Steven Universe. I hear the position is open for a new leader for you?
Fung: Uh, yeah. But what makes you think you can lead us?
Steven: Let me answer a question with a question. Do you enjoy being beaten by the Furios Five, again and again and again and again and again and again and again?
Fung: Wait, how do you know about that?
Steven: I've been watching over you and all the criminals of China. You are the sorriest disappointment for bandits I've ever seen. But, I'm here to bring you to the top again.
The Croc bandits started laughing hilariously.
Fung: Ok. That's just adorable! Now how about you run home, and you won't get hurt?
Steven: Sure. But first.
Steven leapt up and ran across the Croc bandit's heads. He grabbed one and knocked him over, before delivering a quick kick to one, a palm strike to another, a double fist strike to one, and then knocking over Fung to land on top of him.
Steven: Now, am I your new leader?
Fung: Fine. It's not like you can do any better than Tong Fo.
Steven: Maybe I can. Come with me to the Valley of Peace, and I'll show you.
A few hours passed, and Steven and the Croc bandits were walking along the Valley of Peace.
Steven: Now, destroy some stuff to lure the Jade Palace masters down here.
The Crocs started using their weapons to destroy the tents and shops. It wasn't long before Po and the Furious Five arrived.
Po: Fung? Why are you here?
Fung: It's not actually me that wanted to fight. It's my new boss.
Steven emerged from the bandit group.
Tigress: Really? He's your new boss?
Steven: Yeah.
Monkey: Are we supposed to fight you?
Steven: Yeah.
Mantis: No offense, but your as small as Shifu.
Steven dashed forward and slammed Po through a house.
Crane: It's not possible.
Steven delivered a tornado of attacks sending the Five multiple directions.
Viper: Ok, this guy means business.
Po and the Five started attacking from multiple directions, using their own individual attacks. Steven began swaying his upper body multiple directions at hypersonic speeds, that evaded all 6 attackers' punches and kicks. He jumped into the air, and split kicked Tigress and Monkey, landing on the ground to grab Viper and use her body to whip away Mantis, then leaping backwards to crush Crane to the floor, then did a jump kick against Po before sending them all away with a sonic ground pound.
The Crocs were left shocked at Steven's incredible Kung Fu abilities.
Fung: Did you guys see that too?
The Crocs all nodded.
Steven: Now. Where can I find this, Tong Fo?
Fung: Uh, he's in Chor-Gom prison now.
Steven: Where is Chor-Gom prison?
Fung: You probably don't want to go there. It's dark, cold, and full of rhinos and...
Steven grabbed Fung by the snout.
Steven: Where is it?
Fung spoke from the side of his mouth.
Fung: Ow ow ow! Ok! Ill tell you. It's over in the snowy mountains. We'll take you there, boss.
Steven: Then let's go.
Steven and the croc bandits left the Valley.
Po: We just got our butts handed to us...by a kid?
Mantis: I'm sure Master Shifu will understand.
They returned to the Jade Palace and told Master Shifu of their encounter.
Master Shifu: A child?!
Crane: In our defense, he was really good at kung fu.
Monkey: Seriously. He dodged all of our punches at once, swaying side to side really fast to avoid all six of us.
Shifu: That's impossible. Not even a Celestial Phoenix is able to do that. What did he look like?
Po: Oh, you know. Kinda short and chubby. Had a little bit of hair on his head, and wore some clothes and blue pants.
Shifu: Did he look like Monkey, but less hairy?
Po: Yeah.
Shifu: Then it is as I feared. This same attacker has been spotted all over the valley. It is my belief that he is from the Western Hemisphere of the planet. A country known as the United States. They are sending over three of their experts on this enemy to help.
Tigress: Master, please. Let us take on this enemy.
Viper: If we don't beat him, we'll never get our honor back.
Shifu: They're already on their way.
English accent lady: We are here.
Po turned and saw three colorful women. One was red, another was white and blue, and another was purple.
Mantis: Well, they're definetely pretty colorful.
Red lady: We are the Crystal Gems. Garnet!
Garnet revealed her two garnets in her hands and a pair of gauntlets morphed around them, slamming them together.
Purple lady: Amethyst!
Amethyst revealed the amethyst in her gem and pulled a long whip from it that she cracked with one swipe.
Blue and white lady: Pearl!
Pearl revealed the pearl in her forehead and a spear extended from it, which she pulled out and spun around before planting it on the floor.
Po: Woah! They can pull weapons from their bodies! Awesome!
Shifu: Thank you so much for coming. This enemy was able to beat my students all at once.
Garnet: If he's here, you're all in big trouble.
Pearl: Let us explain.
Pearl projected a hologram from her pearl.
Pearl: Long ago, we were defenders of humanity. We fought to protect the world from evil threats with our leader, Rose Quartz. Steven is her son, and she had to give up her physical form to make him. At first, he was nice, funny, caring sweet, but he never did figure out how to control his powers. One day, our home, Beach City, became ravaged by these creatures called necromorphs. The necromorphs were created by an alien relic known as the Marker. Steven was able to destroy it, but it corrupted his body and mind. Now all he wants is conquest and power. The Marker also enhanced his abilities and powers 1000 fold.
Po: That's a lot of fold.
Garnet: If he came here, his plan is the same. Unite all the evils here, and turn them into his fighting force to take over China, then the world.
Shifu: This is much worse than anything we could've anticipated. Gems. I'm sending you out with Crane, Po, and Tigress. See if you can find where Steven is gathering everyone.
Po: We're on it, Master.
Steven and the Croc bandits arrived at the entry to Chor-Gom prison.
Steven: Alright. Let's go.
Steven charged up a blast in his hand and blasted it through the door. The rhino guards all noticed this.
Rhino: Intruder!
They all attacked Steven as he leapt forward, kicking through the shield of one of the guards, breaking it and sending the guard through the other guards.
Fung: Here. Tong Fo is this way.
The Crocs lead Steven to the cells, and showed Steven where Tong Fo was. Steven broke the door down, and looked inside to see a small Loris with blue sweatpants standing inside.
Steven: Tong Fo, I presume?
Tong Fo: Depends on who's asking.
Steven: My name is Steven Universe. I came to break you out.
Tong Fo: You? You're only a child!
Fung: Uh, actually, I'd like to point out that he defeated the guards in one punch.
Tong Fo: Is that right now?
Tong Fo stared at him with his massive eyes.
Fung: Seriously. Those eyes.
Steven: He doesn't have big eyes. He has a tiny skull. I bet his brain barely fits inside it.
Tong Fo stared angrily at Steven for a moment, before giggling and bursting into laughter. Steven soon did the same thing with the Crocs.
Tong Fo: Finally! Someone gets it!
Steven: Now help me break all the other prisoners out.
Tong Fo: I think this is the start to a beautiful new partnership.
Steven: Indeed.
