Fun Fact: I have given a few Gems distinct fighting styles. For example: 107's way of fighting is somewhat monkey-ish. I.E. he spends more time dodging and flipping around and less time striking. He only strikes with the right opening.
Disclaimer: I do not own Steven Universe
107 ducked and dodged around axe and hammer, jumping up and bringing back his left arm as a gauntlet quickly formed over it, throwing it forward at the fusion, who reached up and caught it, sliding back.
107 planted his feet in the giant's chest, boots activating as he rocketed himself backwards.
He flipped in air, landing and skidding to a stop.
With one mighty roar, Spinel was airborne, pulling his axe-hammer into the air and swinging it down at 107 with shocking speeds.
Rocketing back, 107 opened his palm as a cannon formed around his left arm, firing blasts of green into Spinel, who shot forward threw them, brushing them off.
Quickly claws formed in place of the cannon, and the two shot at one another, clangs of energy against metal ringing throughout the ship.
107 jumped back, left arm swinging rapidly to beat back the rapid axe swings, dodging nimbly around each swing.
Spinel roared. "Stop moving!"
"Stop trying to kill me." 107 responded easily, showing no strain as he continued to dodge.
107 suddenly jumped up, pulling back his claws with lightning speed and slashing them across Spinel's face, making him roar in pain as he stumbled back.
107 shot forward, pulling back his left palm and ramming it directly into Spinel's abdomen, making the giant hunch over before the shock wave hit, throwing him back across the room, breaking through a wall.
"Are we about done here?" 107 placed his hands in his pockets, taking up the same pose he'd taken when Cuprite first attacked him.
What a mess he'd managed to get into...
Spinel growled, pulling himself from the wall of the next room and picking up his axe hammer.
"I'll be done when you're dead!" Spinel shot forward at 107, who jumped into the air, sending his arm stretching upwards as Garnet's was known to do and grabbing hold of one of the large lights hanging over them.
He pulled himself up rapidly, and Spinel looked up towards the light, only to momentarily blind himself and cover his eyes.
107 laughed to himself before jumping down, rocketing down towards Spinel as both arms were taken by the wind behind him, green energy swirling off of his left arm like some sort of flames.
He grabbed hold of Spinel's face with his right arm as he fell, slamming him into the ground.
107 held Spinel down by the face as he pulled back his left arm, twisting his body into a single punch to the fusion's chest, sending him exploding through the floor.
Air was sucked from the ship as the floor was broken through, Spinel plummeting to the earth.
107 stood tall, looking around and sighing.
"The Connie would be angry if I were to leave that behemoth down there with the humans... Ugh... But if I am to get a home here on this planet, I will need someone to vouch for me..."
Did that work as an excuse?
Sigh... Yes...
107 jumped through the hole, the tendrils connecting him to the ship's power core growing thinner.
I'll have to make this quick. I can't leave the Connie up there alone...
Chapter 51: Phase 3 (Part 2)
Merciless
"are you sorry? For anything, anything at all?"
"Well the ship has stopped firing, so that's good... Right?" Lars glanced at Greg, who shrugged.
"Don't get comfortable..." Sour Cream said, looking to where Onion had pointed, watching the large Gem fall from the ship.
With a large splash, Spinel was plummeting into the water.
"So uh... Should we get the Cannons ready?" Lars glanced at Greg, who was about to nod, when he noticed the glowing green gem shooting from the ship and into where the giant was climbing from the water.
A sigh of relief was immediately breathed.
Spinel panted quick, angry pants, glaring up at 107, who floated there, arms crossed with a blank expression.
"Come on. Just give up, defuse. You don't have to fight me." 107 pleaded, expression remaining uncaring.
"You think it's that easy?! Bloodstone will crush us if we fail here!" Spinel said, hammer-axe reappearing in hand.
"Then don't go back to Bloodstone. If you work with us, and the Crystal Gems manage to defeat Bloodstone, you can just live here on Earth. Maybe even find a nice place off world. I'm sure the Peridot, 127 and I could fix up that ship quite nicely..."
"Why would I do that," Spinel grinned, jumping into the air and pulling up his axe hammer. "When I can just kill you and reap the reward?!"
107 grit his teeth, the tendrils connecting him to the ship glowing brighter as he lifted his left hand, and Spinel stopped in mid air.
"H-huh?! What are you doing?!" Spinel flailed, looking scared and confused.
"I'll give you one last chance..." 107 looked up at Spinel, left eye glowing green. "Give up now..."
"Or you're going to have a really bad time."
Connie cut through guard after guard, running towards the Control Room.
"Someone stop that thing!" Was the first thing the ship driver, a peridot, Connie believed, yelled as she entered the room.
The two emeralds helping her control the ship jumped up, energy blades forming over their arms.
"If I could handle Emerald before all of this, I think I can handle you two." Connie smirked, standing ready.
Bloodstone ducked and dodged around Hematite's blades, jumping back as Prehnite came from above, their blade stretching out and stabbing into the ground as Bloodstone dodged before pulling themselves down to the ground with it, aiming their blaster at him and firing rapidly.
Bloodstone dodged around the blasts with ease, jumping forward at Prehnite and pulling back his scythe.
Prehnite blocked with their blade arm, glaring into Bloodstone's eyes before they jumped back away from one another.
"Aw, you look angry about something." Bloodstone grinned, eyes half open as he held his arms out to his sides in a shrug.
"Did my latest kill really hit you that hard, Peridot?"
Prehnite's hands shook, and in an instant, they were firing a barrage of blasts into Bloodstone, who knocked each one aside with his scythe.
"Oh, come on!" Bloodstone shot forward, pulling his scythe back to the side as he prepared to cut down the fusion.
"I hope for your sake you can do better than that!"
Bloodstone was suddenly jumping back, a blue blast exploding between him and Prehnite. He glared up at Blue Diamond, who charged several more blasts, firing a barrage at the Reaper, who slashed each one into the distance.
Bloodstone suddenly held out one hand, stopping one of Howlite's mouth beams in his palm, using his other hand to hold the scythe and deflect blasts.
"Is that all you've got?!"
With a roar, Hematite shot forward, pulling back both blades as he hunched over, preparing to stab Bloodstone.
"NOT EVEN CLOSE!"
Bloodstone prepared to swing down, when several arrows plunged into his back, making him stumble forward.
His eyes widened, blood spewing from his mouth as Hematite's blades jabbed through his flesh, piercing his abdomen and tearing from his back.
Bloodstone glared at Hematite, pulling back one glowing hand as he prepared to blast him from point blank.
In an instant, a flaming gauntlet was ramming into his face, throwing him back across the Kindergarten.
Blue Diamond held out one palm to the cliff face he smashed into, an orb of blue appearing in front of her palm.
"This ends now." She said, eyes narrowing as the orb fired, growing upon leaving her palm and exploding into the cliff face in an instant, lighting up the Kindergarten in blue.
After but a moment of stillness, a scythe spun from the dust, Blue Diamond barely having enough time to dodge.
She yelled out in pain, the scythe sticking into her shoulder and coming out the back, blood staining her clothes.
Bloodstone was upon her in an instant, grabbing hold of the scythe handle and planting his feet on her chest, kicking off of her and tearing the scythe free while sending her rocketing into the earth.
"Oh please! What do you take me for?" Bloodstone laughed down at her crater, before suddenly ducking, Howlite's fist swinging over his head.
He kicked at Howlite, who blocked with his forearm, wincing before flipping back, sending a kick at his chin, which he moved back to avoid.
Howlite quickly descended, landing back on the ground and watching as Bloodstone shot back down towards him, pulling back one fist as black energy spiraled around it.
Howlite quickly put up both hands, a dome of ice appearing over him.
The ice shattered instantly, Bloodstone shooting through and bringing his fist down on Howlite, who held up both hands, catching it and being forced to one knee, the ground under him denting into a crater.
Howlite panted, and Bloodstone pulled back one leg, kicking Howlite in the chest and sending him back, skidding across the dirt.
Bloodstone grinned, walking down the crater towards Howlite, who sat up slowly.
"D-damn it..." Howlite held his side, struggling to his feet.
"Does this scene seem as familiar to you as it does to me, freak?" Bloodstone grinned.
An image flashed before Howlite's eyes.
This same scene, but Howlite was standing where Bloodstone was, and vice versa.
"So you wouldn't happen to still be angry about that whole God Eater thing, wouldja?" Howlite grinned lightly, and Bloodstone's teeth grit.
"I am going to obliterate you..."
"Scary." Howlite waved his hands as if they were claws as he mocked, and Bloodstone shot off the ground towards him.
Bloodstone was stopped, Garnet catching his scythe as he pulled it back.
Bloodstone glared back at her, and Howlite jumped at him from behind, metal maw appearing as his mouth opened wide.
Bloodstone spun around, slamming his fist into the side of Howlite's face and throwing him back to the side.
Howlite skidded across the ground on his back, blood seeping from his cheek.
Bloodstone spun back around to face Garnet, only to be met with an iced gauntlet to the face, his head being thrown back, though he refused to take a step back.
"I truly dislike being hit in the face with trash, fusion..." Garnet's eyes widened as Bloodstone grabbed hold of her wrist, spinning on his heel and throwing her over his shoulder.
Garnet spun, landing and skidding on her feet before Blodostone shot after her, ramming one knee into her abdomen, making her hunch over in pain before he held up both fists, conjoining them and bringing them down on her head.
Bloodstone back flipped away as Garnet crashed through the earth.
He reached up quickly, catching an arrow and glaring directly at Opal, who flinched under his gaze.
"I am done dealing with you." He raised one palm to them as they jumped from cliff face to cliff face, trying to avoid his blast.
An orb of black fired at lightning speed towards her, racing through the sky as she came to a dead end, and she looked to the orb with wide eyes as a black light illuminated the area.
In an instant, the orb was sliced in two, spiraling off in different directions.
Hematite spun down, landing across the ground from Bloodstone as the orbs exploded off in the distance.
"Funny, I was about to say the same thing." Hematite stared with eyes full of iced hatred, and Bloodstone grinned.
"I never took you for one to hold a grudge, Hematite. I thought you were more rational than that." Bloodstone walked towards Hematite, who walked towards him.
"We all have a line that shouldn't be crossed. Mine happened to be Zeolite. Go Figure." Hematite held his blades firmly, and Bloodstone's grin faded.
Hematite flashed from himself to that grey figure in Bloodstone's dreams.
He was sinking.
He knew he was sinking.
"You know... I've been thinking a lot lately, Bloodstone." Hematite said, both of them stopping at about five feet apart.
"About what you did... Everyone you made disappear... Everything they stood for..." Hematite looked at the sky, the gloom of the Kindergarten not affected by the rising of the sun.
"And, you know, I could forgive all of it..." Hematite took in a slow breath, closing his eyes for a moment.
"Pyrite, Zeolite... All of the pain I watched and helped you inflict..." Hematite shook his head.
"I could let it all go." Hematite looked back to Bloodstone.
"If it wasn't for one thing..." Hematite's hands tightened on his blades, knuckles growing white.
"You went back on a promise, Bloodstone..." Hematite's teeth grit.
Bloodstone looked slightly confused.
"You don't remember, do you, Reaper?" Hematite stared coldly at Bloodstone.
"You don't remember why Zeolite and I agreed to join you, do you?" Hematite sighed, disappointed.
"What else would I expect? After all..." Hematite's eyes snapped wide open, his blades readying.
"You've always been a liar..."
"W-what the... How are you doing this?! How is any of this possible?! You're just some emerald!" Spinel flailed, though it did nothing to help.
"You are bad at listening." 107 shook his head. "I am no emerald, as I've told you far too many times now..."
107 suddenly moved his hand to the left, smashing Spinel into the beach.
"I am 107. Emerald base, Homeworld A.I. Body Prototype." 107 said, pulling Spinel up into the air once again just to smash him back down.
"And you have made this day a rather... Unpleasant experience." 107 moved his hand rapidly, throwing Spinel around violently.
107 smashed Spinel into the ground, letting him go from his green hold.
"Now, are you going to give up, knowing who I am?" 107 floated down to the ground before Spinel, who looked up, grinning.
"If you're really... If you're really that 107, then killing you should get us a lot higher up in the Homeworld Government..." Raising his hammer-axe, Spinel prepared to swing down at 107.
The hammer glowed green in his hand, suddenly falling backwards towards him.
He jumped back, surprised. "What the-"
"Don't you get it?!" 107 sounded desperate. "You. Can't. Win." His eyes narrowed.
"So leave while you still can."
Spinel chuckled to himself, clenching his hands into fists. "If I can't smash you with my hammer and I can't cut you with my axe, I'll just crush you with my hands!"
"You're going to lose."
"As if I'd lose to some failed experiment!" Spinel jumped forward, pulling back one large fist and swinging at 107, who caught it, sliding back slightly with a grunt.
"Alright, fine."
107 spun on his heel, taking hold of Spinel and throwing him over his shoulder into the water.
Spinel landed with a splash, but shot from the water, pulling his fists into the air as he came down towards where 107 was a moment ago.
107 was, of course, gone.
"Where did he..?" Spinel glanced around, before his eyes suddenly widened, 107 slamming elbow first into his back and forcing him to bend backwards around the hit before flying into the water.
"But don't say I didn't warn you." 107 smirked lightly as he opened his left palm to the water.
His palm glowed green, and he suddenly threw his arm upward, Spinel being dragged from the water with this movement, now encased in green.
107 swung his arm around violently, slamming Spinel into everything he could, his other hand casually in his pocket as he watched his own actions with a bored expression.
"Sp-ace G-od d-amn it l-et me d-own!"
"You wanna go down, do you?" 107's hair covered his eyes.
"Y-es!"
"Fine, I am a nice guy."
In an instant, Spinel was slamming down through the sand, being pushed down into it as it fell over him.
"Idiots like you are the reason wars happen..." The green glow disappeared from 107's hand, and he looked back to the ship.
"Now I should be able to-"
The sand behind him exploded into the air, Spinel shooting out and pulling up his hammer-axe.
"DIE!"
Spinel swung down, and 107 held up his left arm, his Proto-Blade appearing over it as he blocked the axe with ease.
"Some people just don't know when to stop, do they?" 107 sighed, suddenly pushing Spinel's weapon back with shocking force, making him stumble back.
107 shot forward, a javelin appearing around his arm, what would be the handle reaching over his arm and jutting out from his hand, the point reaching far ahead.
"Fall."
Spinel's eyes widened as 107 rammed his javelin through his stomach, coming out through his back and leaving a gaping hole in his abdomen.
107 spun, landing on one knee before glaring over his shoulder at Spinel, who fell to his knees, holding his wound.
"H-how..?" Spinel gasped, coughing blood as blood seeped through his fingers on the hand that held his wound.
"How could you defeat me..?" He slammed one fist on the ground.
"No... I won't lose to trash like you..!" Spinel stumbled to his feet. "Even if it kills us..!"
"..." 107 stared at the ground. Those two were so determined to win... They worked so well in tandem...
"Why..?" 107 questioned, turning to face the fusion.
"Why are you so keen on getting back up? Is it so you won't be executed?" He arched a brow at them.
"No!" Spinel stood slowly, hammer-axe appearing in hand.
"As long as we stand, Homeworld will not fall!" They roared. "We are everything our world stands for! We may not be diamonds or Bloodstone, but we'll be damned if our home ever falls to your kind! We refuse to lose a battle to you! We refuse to go home in defeat! We, I, will go home in glory or I will die here!"
"..."
"Because I have something to stand for! Can you say the same?!"
107 looked to the ground.
In an instant, Spinel was falling backwards, back slamming and being pressed down against the sand.
107 held out his left hand, glowing green. "I am... Truly sorry."
107 lifted his hand to the sky.
He held all of his fingers together, before pulling them slowly apart, as if there was resistance.
Spinel roared, being ripped in two.
His form shifted, shrinking into two smaller gems, who 107 dropped.
"... Are you one hundred percent sure..?" 107 asked, Cuprite and Halite standing slowly.
The two glanced at one another, their weapons appearing.
"Yes."
107 shot forward, holding his left arm out to the side as his Proto-Blade reappeared.
Halite shot forward, colliding with the blade as a shock wave blew sand away from the two.
Cuprite spun from above, 107 jumping back as his hammer smashed the sand into the air.
From the sand the two shot, spiraling at 107 as they both pulled their weapons out to opposite sides.
107 waved his arm to the side, the two being thrown aside.
Both of them spun, landing on their feet and skidding before shooting off the ground at him.
107 ducked under Halite's axe, sweeping out his legs before back flipping and spinning in air like a ball away from Cuprite's hammer.
As he landed, the two shot at him from opposite sides.
107 jumped up, the two stopping right where he was standing.
They both jumped up after him, and as he moved his head back to avoid Halite's axe, which sliced off a few hairs, Cuprite jumped above them, spinning down and slamming his hammer down on 107's forehead, sending him exploding into the sand.
Halite and Cuprite landed, looking around and waiting for 107, who had disappeared underground.
"This... Doesn't feel right..." 107 watched the two, back against a rock as he waited for them to do... I don't know, something.
"No, they are a danger to my safety. To 127's safety... To the Connie's safety..."
107's hands clenched into fists, and he took a deep breath. "They have to die..."
As he was about to step out, something pink caught his eye.
He noticed something pink was sticking from the sand.
He opened his palm to the sand, moving it aside quietly so as to not catch the enemy's attention.
His eyes widened at his discovery.
It appeared to be a destroyed Laser Light Cannon.
"Another relic... What a shame it would be to put this to waste..." A small smirk appeared on 107's lips as the parts lifted into the air, glowing green.
"Ah, yes, I can work with this..."
"Where is he..?" Halite glanced around.
"Maybe he left?" Cuprite suggested.
"No... He was so confident in his abilities, there is no way he would leave..." Halite glanced around, tensing.
In an instant, a boulder was kicked at them, and they both jumped to opposite sides to avoid it.
"There he i-" Halite stopped mid sentence, eyes widening.
"Here I am." Behind 107 floated what looked like a green skull, made from what could only have been Rose's cannon, buried on the beach after being destroyed.
It's mouth opened, a glowing green light appearing in it.
"I'm not one for one liners so..." 107 shrugged, aiming his open palm at the two.
"Fire."
The skull fired green beams at the two as they jumped around, avoiding them. The sand being hit was burnt to glass, and Cuprite shot forward, pulling back his hammer in attempts to stop 107's attack.
107 jumped back, the skull firing at him.
Cuprite held up his hammer in a futile attempt to block, but Halite jumped over him, smashing the beam aside with his axe, landing on the sand while gritting his teeth.
"You won't stop us!" Halite called, but 107 said nothing.
107 held up one hand once again, Halite and Cuprite shooting off at him.
Halite was lit up in green, being thrown around while Cuprite dodged blasts, getting closer and closer to 107, who continued to jump back away from him.
Cuprite jumped forward one last time, and 107's arm blade shot out at him.
He dodged to the side, and blade went on, stabbing into the ground.
Cuprite reached 107, looking to be about to jump up when the green blade shot from the sand, stabbing through his back.
With wide eyes Cuprite hit the ground, landing face first, eyes wide as blood seeped slowly from his mouth.
"I-... I see..." He pushed himself up, despite the hole in the right side of his chest.
The hole in his gem.
"... Please..." 107's hands clenched into fists.
"Stay down."
"Heh... What kind of... Coward do you take me for..?" Cuprite winced, coughing blood as more cracks spread through his gem.
"I'm not gonna... I'm not gonna..." Cuprite stumbled, falling to his hands and knees before forcing himself up once again.
"I'm not gonna lose..."
He shot off the ground at 107, who's blaster aimed down at him.
"EVEN IF IT KILLS ME!"
107's hand was aimed directly at Cuprite, Halite being dropped.
"..."
The blaster fired directly down at Cuprite, who kept running, pulling back his hammer.
"... I'm sorry."
The blaster fired, and Cuprite kept that same look of determination as he was engulfed.
"Cuprite!" Halite called, reaching out in shock towards his comrade.
The blast faded, and nothing but shards laid on the ground.
Halite rushed to the scene, picking up the shards with horror clear on his face.
"Damn it Cuprite..!" He shook, holding the shards close. "Why couldn't you just wait..?! We're a team damn it..." Halite fell to his knees, eyes closed.
107's cannon powered down, floating motionless in the sky. His arm fell, head down.
"You... You did this..." Halite stood slowly. His hammer appeared in his hand, pupils shrinking as his hands clenched into tight fists, knuckles white, wind blowing his hair.
"You're gonna pay... Even if it costs me everything, you're gonna pay!" A second hammer appeared in his hand, and 107's left hand began to glow as his blaster lit up once more.
"... Halite's and Cuprite's were first created on Earth during the Gem wars... Production stopped shortly after the Gem Wars. You and your partner..." 107 sighed.
"I suppose not all relics can survive the ages..." 107 shrugged with disappointment.
"That's too bad... Murder isn't usually my thing." All mercy seemed to fade from his eyes as his expression grew colder than usual.
"Until some numb skull pulls it out of me."
Most of you were probably just expecting more everyone throwing themselves at Bloodstone.
Well too bad, you got 107 throwing a fusion around for the majority of the chapter.
speaking of which, can you guess who 107's telekinetic powers and blaster are based off of?
If you've played the game it's pretty obvious...
Heh... Spinel got dunked on...
Anyway! Please Favorite, Follow, and Review!
