Trigger warning- Drug reference

Flashback 200 years ago, Steven is at the smoothie bar looking depressed- wearing his black shirt but no jacket. Uncle Andy came in,' Hey nephew are you alright.' Steven refuses to respond,' hey there you might feeling dead but I'm here for you to talk about.' Steven attempt to utter a sentence,' I was at the funeral for a friend, I felt sadness like I lost a dear brother.' Andy understands what he's saying,' Nephew, I understand what you going.' Steven outburst in tears,' KO was a Hero, an innocent child that younger than me. I tried to use my big brother instinct to protect him but I failed and all because of TTG and me.' Andy comforts him while sniffing,' Well, that's sad but I also lost someone that I feared most. When Greg left all I had is my parents, we have a great time together flying the airplane. I never forget the day that they died, I was so devastated that is the main reason that I take off and fly somewhere else around the world.' Steven decides to hug his dear uncle,' Is alright, at Least your Steven is here.'

Back to the present, Link and Crystal gems are wandering in the Steppes. Link's arm still stings so Connie decided to take a look,' Let me take a look at your injury [sees bruises, bleeding from cuts] well let me take a gentle rub to make is not serious[Connie touches his arm, Link in pain] Oh stars a broken ligament, Steven Link needs a medical emergency. DS rush to Link, 'alright let me take a….[looks horrified at his arm] Well, not to worry Link I could heal it. Steven crushes some healing herbs with his spit into past,'this will heal but it takes a while to heal inside so no roughhousing aright Linky.' Steven smears the paste all over his arm before warping it with a bandage with cubed zig-zag pattern]'There, just take a break from fighting, and Bismuth with taking care of you.' Link gets carried by Bismuth,' alright Linky, If any enemy wants to take avenge just leave it to us.' Later a horde of moblins-Entelodont like warriors ambush the Gems while Link freaks out,' Guys is the Moblins.' Connie unleashes her mightyeana, the german shepherd pokemon use crunch at the Moblin before Connie finishes it off with her sword. But more came,' uh guys, I could use a little help.' Peridot unleashes her Haliolisk and luxiray, they use thunder at the moblins to paralyzes then before bismuth finishes it off when her metagross us meteor punch. DS uses shield bash at the daemon-like leader before seeing a glimpse of a red wolf chasing a rhino before seeing a creepy creating a trail,' Guys, we have to follow that diplocaulus come on.

DS leads until he saw a tremortusk- mammoth-like mech with a raptured reactor,' what happened, who do the to a mech.' Then he spotted Zedus with a daeodon skull as a helmet, Zedus opens his mouth revealing fulling developed tusk-like he becomes a boar,' Are komodos supposed to have teeth like that.' Link explain to DS,' that because he's a velonasaur, a prickling subspecies that grows tusk when he's fully mature.' Snips sense something,'guys we've got company.' A wild Thanatos appears, DS seems completely frozen in shock. Connie informs Steven to escape,' Steven getaway, is death.' DS is in a catatonic state so snipes become chirin to deflect the attack with her horns,' someone gets Steven, I can't hold it forever.' Bismuth carrels DS before escaping with her metacross. Connie is confused,' bismuth what happened.' Bismuth realized that she's ready to explain,' Connie The reason why Steven's is in a coma because he wants to escape from that thing to the point he ended up in limbo.' DS remembers when he's dying from his injuring that caused the beast to follow him,'[heavu breathing] Guys I'm gonna be okay, right. [heavy breathing] I'm….I'm so cold.' Lapis diagnosed what happened,' I think he's having flashbacks, I must cool him off.' Zedus see what's going on then he sees the maned wolf that stares at him like he needs to show them the true meaning of courage. Zedus when to a defensive state and stat to attack the thanador like a rabid armadillo. The Thanators are attempted to prowl but Zedus rolls into a spiky ball before use role roll out, then it finishes him off with a crunch with his tusk fueled by the weight of the skull helmet and shoves it away before escaping. Link and DS are impressed by Zedus' actions, Connie decides to camp at the mech.

While everyone is resting, Connie looks at Steven (DS) that still in a catatonic state, Steven just stare at the night sky so Connie decides to close his eyes because it freaks her out. Bismuth is feeding Link mushroom stew until Typlosion came. Bismuth is wondering why he's here so he responded,'I'm here to help the Hero to fight the crested demon.' Feralgator is more interested in Steven (DS),'I understand that your friend is in shock but let me tell you about it. The moment I save the gators from swamp people, I was chosen bu croc spirit- Sobek. The guardian dates back eons ago as one that lived in Picarra and Bauru tribes. That boy is the key to help the Hero from the chaos of fate. He might be fragile but he has the heart of the suchus [smear vertical tidal markings underneath the most and over his eyes] Do you understand knight?' Connie nodes and feralgator responded,' good, then let wait for the sun to rise.'

The team got encountered by a fabled merciless griffin raider so the Typlosion attempts to inform but Connie and Steven don't mind,' Guys hide, is the griffin raider.' Feraligator is the determination to fight to protect them,' Come on kids go hide, this griffin raider is known for fighting ruthlessness.' The female raider dismount from her griffin,' Who's there that's waiting to fight me, I had enough to have a sparring match. I meant the Yiga soldiers that turn to hurt me but failed because of my fighting instincts.' Typlosion has the determination to ask,' What are you doing here, we have no connection to the yiga clan, these guys are just insulting people for satisfaction.' Feraligator is defending the team,' We don't want to mess with anyone.' Link is determined to face to face,'Guys I could defend my OUCH my arm.' The griffin sense something and finds Link while the raider sense something,' I sense KO's spirit lurking [tears up] Did he died long ago, impossible unless I'm sensing something like him.' Steven corrects her,' I could explain, KO that you looking for is Link. Link is his incarnation since [looks down] that day' The raider found Link and starts to feel her emotions are drifting,' Oh my is that Link the Hero that I heard the stories from Delta?' Link explains,' is a long story, I was raised by…' Gets hug from her griffin while the raider starts to tear up,' I thought all this time I was trying to preserve my hope ad optimism from fighting the Yiga sadist for the greater good. Link how I'm I going to repay you.' Link responded,' Well is nothing, I just want people to be safe from many terrors from what's going on.' The raider decides to take off with her griffin while giving them a hint,' Hear tales this horn so you could talk to those rhinos and even communicate with mono corns as well. I have to go and relief after good news about Link and I like to give Steven thanks. Yes, I knew his there with you and tell him that I've been hopeful by fighting.'

Then they encounter a massive monocorn that glares at the team, Connie is determined to protect DS but DS decide to confront it instead. 'Steven, what are you doing? Those things are dangerous.' The bison-like ceratopsian bellowed loudly at Steven, Steven blows a horn that he took to from Link's inventory. The horn creates a smooth trumpet, the monocorn began to sniff at Steven and start to find him familiar like he recognized him before. The monocorn stars at Connie, Lapis, Peridot, and Bismuth. The monocorn starts to bellow loudly to summon a monocorn stalfoe (triplex), Triplex got close to DS that DS freaked out. The Stalfoe utter a word at DS,'schu-ball, is that really you.' DS is confused,' Dad, is that….. How did you become a…you know a…stal.' Triplex (Greg's soul) tearfully hugs DS,' My son I didn't want to leave you but I thought you were gone and I grief for so long….that Chomp….[…]] I don't want to leave my comatose son, Steven.' DS starts to weep,' dad [hugs his father] You and Chomp are….[sniffs] you guys worried that I'm gone. I don't know what to say, dad'. Greg's comfort DS,' oh Steven, I understand that you in pain when…..that day.' The emotion starts to kick in from Greg that he starts to bellow in tears, the bellowing starts to sound vaguely human-like sobbing.' The monocorn gives Bismuth, the Amour of Determination,' Here take this for reuniting a sorrow stal back to his long lost son, it contains an aura of a monocorn. To unlock it, once but possessed an unstoppable force. I named it Tryno.'

The team decides to continue to wonder with Greg to find the other Steven's until they spotted Rex fighting a demon. Rex seems injured before becoming mega aggron, The demon reveals to be Belphemon- a demon lord of sloth. The Digimon possesses a dilophosaur like a crest and petal-like frill around his neck. Belphemon uses a dark horn attack before being defected by Rex. Rex uses iron defense before uses iron head at the demon lord, the demon lord continues to ram with the dark horn. That continues to ram until Rex starts to bleed from the black holes on his body. DS sense that he needs help,' Guys Rex is hurt, let help him.' Rex starts to breathe heavenly that he sees DS before losing conscience,' Steven….you came….to…' DS t-poses at the demon, If you want to get him, you have to through me.' the B-team are surprised by his plan,' Steven wait, we have to help him, what is that clod thinking.' The demon is about to ram him before the maned wolf deflects the attack, 'what is you again. What are you, a direwarg or something.' The red wolf uses iron defense before using iron head, 'explain yourself wolf.' The wolf explained,' I'm a dire warg- Zamazenta, go save the other Steven. He's inside of him to be his vessels like what happened to Bane or that 'cat''. DS is surprised about it, 'What Steven is in there but….what happened.' Zamazenta explains to him,' Shaymin fought a mech that contains the demon, he bamboozled Steven by acting like a cute dilophosaurus before spitting at him.' DS is determined to face him to get Steven so he sends Zedus, Zedus use crunch but dodge. The demon opens his frills before blinding him with his spite, the spit contains a toxin that made the Zedus feel dizzy before crashes. 'Zedus, get up you have to fight, that's it is you and me Dilopho-demon. DS starts to shield bashes while the demon is bashing his shield.

This went for several minutes until Bismuth and Peridot decide to help Steven, Peridot sends luxiray with halolisk and Bismuth sends metagross/ bronzong. Greg starts to feel worried about Steven,' Be careful Steven, don't push yourself too hard.' Bismuth's pokemon uses flash canon at the demon, the demon extracted the other lapis. Peridot's pokemon uses thunder, the sock causes the other peridot to be extracted. The dilophosaur got infuriated to the point it releases smog, making it difficult to breathe. The Dilopho demon is about to pounce at Steven before being bashed by Zamazenta, the wolf but the belly so the other Bismuth could escape. This causes the demon to get really angry,' I shouldn't be lazy bones, looks like time to but all of you to sleep.' The demon grows larger, the claws glow and grow bigger, grows a set of horns similar to Jacob sheep, and get's hunch back. The demon unleashes a deep bellowing like a bleat, the Crystal gems are ready to fight it off. The other peridot uses manectric to fight it off, Connie uses her mightyena to mount to charge against the demon. Feralgatr uses aqua tail and typlosion uses fire fang but the demon uses spit to drug both of them. Feralgatr utters to Steven before falling asleep,' Steven, gems this is your chance.' Connie charges towards him to slash his tail, the demon grabs both of them,' guys help.' Two Lapis ranges to get Connie of but the booth got attacked by the demon from behind, Connie fell of but saves by DS. DS got infuriated that when he releases that Connie goy hit bu the horns,' Oh crap, Connie your hurt.' Connie starts to loos blood but DS tries to aid her as much as possible,'Connie, please stay with me.' Link sed what happens so he decides to get on Zedus, Zedus fling Link into the demon's back. Link uses backslash and stabs the demon through the head before slashing all the horns.

The Armor began to glow, both B-team CG began to mere as one. Peridot wonders what's happing,' Guys what going on, I'm starting to feel unusual.' A spirit of a Monocorn appears and bellows, a mark of the zodiac appears both in Bismuth and Peridot with Bismuth comments,' What's this mean, are we the signers.' Peridot responds,' maybe Bis.' Connie loses conscience, causing DS to go furious. 'Connie, please stay with me. You must….Connie. You monster, YOU HURT MY CONNIE.' Steven glows pink, Palkia's aura appears,' you are going to pay for this, ready guys.' Peridot and Bismuth replied after wanting what happens in tears,' for Connie.' Link stabs the demon in the chest, Metacross/ bronzong uses flash canon, and Manectric/ luxiray/ halolisk use thunder to finish. A mask appears, Steven and the Spirit seals it off.

(everything is dead quiet, a slowed BotW field music is played)

They wonder where is the other Steven until Zedus found comatose Steven. Zedus attempts to wake him but remained stagnated, Greg attempt to find Steven ever since he heard a massive battle occurred. The stal monocorn sniff in the air until he found him next to the mourning lizard,' What's going on what happened to my son.' The undead monocorn bellows to call for everybody, the B-team come hey believed that they're too late to save him. 'Steven is he….', Peridot whimpers before Bismuth embraced her. Greg found him but start to call him but no responded,' Steven is me you dad, please you have to get up.' The stal-monocorn attempts to wake him but no anvil, DS attempt to get near but Link holds him. Greg attempt to wake him,' Schew-ball please I don't want to lose you again. You have to…..you can't be. I didn't even protect him, I failed you again.' The stal-monocorn embraced Steven before unleashing a sorrowful bellowing. Meanwhile, Shaymin in his sky-form found Typlosion and Feralgator in the ground, wakes them with aromatherapy. Tryplosion confuses about it,' what happened'? Feralgator responded,' we've jacked by sleeping poison, let's check if the others are.' The wonders but they saw that they believed to be too late to safe Steven, even if the demon is defeated. 'what….happened, did we…is he.' Feralgatr breathes in frustration and corrects everyone,' Guys, he's not dead. He just wrecked by sleep poison, he's just drugged. What do you expect why TTG in the past worshiped by that demon, to be spaced out.' Everyone is surprised about it, Greg is relieved that his songs actually alright. Shaymin get to Steven to resuscitate him with aromatherapy before waking up,' what happened, guys what you doing here, why I'm hearing my dad grieving over me and why is Connie….' The monocorn tearfully embraced Steven,'I thought Most you son.' Steven s very confused,' what is going on around here, is this is a side effect of vision or something.' Link corrects Steven,' Well, you see…..this is a very long way to explain this buddy but I'm glad that you're alright.' Link gives Steven a warm hug.

Later back to the temple, DS is donating his blood to Connie with help of Meganium. Maganium explains to DS,' Are you sure about this Steven, Connie might also become half-gem as well because your blood contains diamond's essence.' DS responds with a nod while taking care of Connie that's being healed. Steven is surprised at seeing Connie again but feeling whizzing while Greg (stal monocorn) is tending him,' hold it son you still have symptoms of the poison.' Lapis is keeping calm about what happened but all she knows that Steven is safe and the demon lord is defeated. Bismuth and Peridot are taking care of wounded Rex. Rex is confused about it,' Was I that high when I saw Steven and you guys taking down that demon lord that I'm struggling to fight.' Peridot, responded, 'well you could have seen how badass Steven is.' Bismuth explains about Steven,' Steven might be a cute cuddly softie but he has intense potential.' Rex replied,' I understand, I thought he was a wannabe that Yiga claims that he works with the Equalist. But now all of that is false if only I learn more about that dumpling's backstory to understand.' Steven appeared while balancing,' actually you can because I'm here. I'm Steven a Diamond that incarnated from Palkia, what about you Rexy.' Rex has a hard time explain his past,' Is okay you don't want to explain your past, maybe you can't explain to you feeling like you…fears from a terrible fate.' Rex declines to respond [seeing a rhino disappearing into darkness before fainting] Bismuth panicked and start to perform CPR,'I'm on it, why did he keep losing air like that.' Steven starts to worry about Rex while Link is there for Steven,' Is alright Steven, I'm here for you if you feel emotionally drained is that alright buddy.' Steven feels very concerned,' Hey, on the bright side the earth is stabilized from the merging because we defeated the demons right'? Steven starts to feel a slighter better,' id fine, I'm feeling very hopeful since you guys rescue me because I know that a Hero will be there for everyone.'

Meanwhile, Thrawn is talking to the Demon of Envy,' It appears all the weakest demons are defeated so is there anything to inflect your range?' The demon responded,' Yes my commander, there is one Hero that proves that he's better than Steven. I sense my vessel is Rex the Hero that has been forgotten.'

END

Zedus defense as offense inspired by Lizzie from rampage that looks like boar croc.

Feralgator may not be a pokemon but rather an incarnation of Sobek- swamp guardian, yes he was a pokemon but the evolution is from the spirit of Sobek (sebecus). It was believed that Sobek looked more wolf-like than boar.

The griffin raider conflict will be explained

Monocorns, like rhinos they have poor vision so they relied on smell to tell their offspring.

You don't want to know how Greg react in the fallen timeline is too tearjerking

Steven got connected by the sloth demon because he lost hope until his rescue. TTG is high in drugs, this explains they don't want to save the day. Don't do drugs.

Rex is a hidden grudge with Steven because many people remember the cute huggable Hero but Rex is forgotten despite being so cool and handsome.

The next chapter will explain Rex's back story or Generator Rex AU story
