Freeman's Odyssey
Chapter: 115
Enter the Blood Diamonds
Four shooting stars that are bleeding descended upon the Earth towards the place known as Beach City and had finally landed at their destination of an Earth city according to intelligence reports from the Gem Home world! Four pods had crashed upon the city and with the smoke cleared the pods opened up as beings came out of each pod, for starters they are red more like blood red and almost bleeding, like diamonds or remotely they are Blood Diamonds.
Who are these Blood Diamonds from the home world of the gems? Answering only to the Empress Purple diamond they are the special forces of gem-world that do all the dirty work and why they have come to Earth. By the order of their queen to capture Rose Quartz and bring her forth to the Queen, if resistance is made they have secondary orders to eliminate her, along with the Crystal gems.
All four of them glanced at their surrounds and know this is the world where the Crystal gem rebel faction is here and this world has been abandoned for eons by their species. It disgusted them that the vermin known as Humans still exist on this world and this place is almost ready for colonization, for they were informed the cluster is growing upon this Earth.
As in how long until this world is destroyed they do not even know. The humans are gawking at them as one of them fired her eye beams and had shot a gas station that exploded in a massive fire ball. The people start to flee in terror as the Blood diamonds felt the elation of the humans fear, however they know they have a job to do and many gems fear the blood diamonds for their ruthlessness.
"Use a search pattern to find Rose Quartz and her allies," said Red one
"Understood," said Red Two
"Got it," said Red Three
"About time we got to do something and I was getting bored," said Red Four "These humans irritate me."
"Well if they get in your way kill them," spoke a voice "Remember the Queens orders,"
"Silence black pearl," said Red One "We know our duty; you just follow orders….understood."
"Yeah whatever," said black pearl "Wait I discovered a gem temple here,"
"Then search it and stop wasting our time," said Red one
"I will join black pearl," said Red Four
Many of the people are running for their lives in which bystanders are being shot and killed by the blood diamonds as they are attacking the city.
"Attention: humans," said Red One out loud "You will hand over Rose Quartz or all of you will die this is your only warning,"
The three blood diamonds attacked the city as the fourth went to go check out the gem temple. Greg Universe was trying to start his van in which he wants to get away as things have turned crazy as Connie is in the vehicle with him; she looked scared as she still has the sword with her in which one of the blood diamonds walks towards the vehicle.
"Stay in the van," said Connie "I will hold it off,"
"What?, that is crazy," said Greg "You'll get killed,"
"It is the only way," said Connie "Until Steven arrives,"
Connie takes the sword and gets out of the van as Greg Universe continues to try to start the van; however he has no such luck as he won't give up. The Blood diamond looked almost amused at their attempt to escape; putting an end to them would end their misery. The blood diamond was about to fire its eye beams at the van until a human girl got in between them and the diamond fired any way. Suddenly the beams were deflected by the young girl holding the sword in hand, a gem world sword and a symbol belonging to Rose Quartz.
"Foolish child," said Red One "You seem to have some skill in the sword, who trained you. Rose Quartz, scanners show you have magic on you."
"Maybe what of it," said Connie
"Interrogation is in order," said Red One "You'll be take away,"
"Leave her alone," shouted Greg
Greg Universe's van came in high speed as Greg himself jumped out of the van as it smashed into the Red Diamond with a furious explosion that collected a lot of dust and debris. However Red Diamond walked out of it with only few scratches upon her diamond like skin.
"How futile," said Red One "And you have magic on you also, you will be interrogated as well."
Blood Diamond one came in full speed as Connie attempted to do a forward slash as the diamond caught it in her hand and tossed her aside like a rag doll as Connie is slammed hard to the ground as the sword drops out of her hand, and Greg tried to flee, but he is kicked in the back and slammed into a piece of debris. Wordlessly the Blood Diamond tossed them into the pod that will transport them back to the Queen in her gem cruiser.
Outside the Gem Temple
Gordon Freeman had found something inside of that beach house and he was about to investigate more until explosions were heard and screams as well. Then he sees some sort of being of a diamond approaching him, unknown to him nearby is black pearl cowering behind a rock and is watching with interest.
"Stand aside human," said Red Four
"And what you are suppose to be," asked Gordon
"I do not answer questions to a vermin like you," said Red Four "And now you will die,"
The blood diamond formed a blood sword from her forehead and charged at Gordon with full speed on the beach as Gordon activated his omni-tool blade and braced himself for the attack as the collision of their blades caused a shock wave. Their swords collided between one another a few times on the beach and Gordon got the upper hand by using the omni-tool blade to slash the hand of the Blood diamond as it had taken her by surprise.
"A human who can prove a challenge," said Red Four "Such a rarity, did Rose Quartz. Trained you,"
"I don't know who that is," said Gordon "And I don't care,"
"Then you will die," said Red Four
Her eyes glowed and fired an energy shot at Gordon in which Black Pearl didn't want to be in the cross fire of this as she is told that two people have been captured and will be interrogated. However the temple must be searched as she tried to make a mad dash for it as a stray shot hits her and throws her a lot of feet in the air towards the city.
Beach City!
Steven and the others had finally arrived by way of his moms pink lion, however by the looks of it. They are too late as they are shocked at the carnage that they see before them. Peridot spotted the three Blood Diamonds approaching them in which the Crystal gems are in battle formation as Peridot hanged back a bit with Steven.
"What do you know of these Blood Diamonds?" said Garnet
"They are the empresses elite warriors that are sent out to do the dirty missions," said Peridot "As every gem on the home world knows of their ruthlessness,"
"Well why don't we fight them," said Amethyst
"I'd advise caution as we don't know the extent of their capabilities," said Pearl
"Wait Connie and my dad are inside one of those pods," said Steven
"We should fuse," said Garnet to the others with a whisper "As this won't be easy,"
All three Blood diamonds fired their eye beams at them as Steven raised his bubble shield in the nick of time as an explosion occurred in which smoke and fire rise upwards in the air. The blood diamonds know that it wouldn't be too easy to take them down and when it did cleared to their surprise a pink shield is seen surrounding the Crystal gems and the traitorous Peridot.
"Only Rose Quartz can do that," said Red One
"My scan shows he is some sort of hybrid," said Red Two
"A human vermin and one our kind mating," said Red Three "Disgusting,"
"Yeah let them go and we will accept your surrender," said Steven
In a first time in a long time the three blood diamonds just laughed at the boy.
"I commend you on your courage;" said Red One "As you will be brought forth to the Queen and you Crystal Gems will be destroyed."
"As for you Peridot," said Red Two "You will be destroyed as well, so it has been decreed by the-"
KABOOM
An explosion occurred at the beach in which that brought to their attention as something had risen in the air and a secondary explosion in the air caused something to be shattered into pieces, pieces of the fourth Blood diamond and the head of the fourth Blood diamond landed close by. This was a shock to everyone including the bloods.
"Impossible," coursed all three of them
"Not really," said Gordon "Is it me or should I join in on the party."
Gordon Freeman came before them and stopped near the head of what once was the fourth blood diamond as he looked down. Then with his foot he stomps upon the head as it too shatters into pieces and in the first time in the long time the three remaining blood diamonds felt emotion anger, as this human has the gull to kill one of them.
"NOW" shouted Garnet
Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl fused together to form a giant creature it looked like it has pink-red skin, green hair, six arms, and two mouth in which it calls itself Alexandrite and the fusion creature formed two weapons the Alexandrite sword and Hammer in which knowing the fusion won't last long and it had completely taken the Blood diamonds by surprise in which they are fighting back, but are overwhelmed by the sheer power of this fusion creature as they are sliced into pieces and then smashed to pieces by the weapons until there is nothing left. Then they de-fused and looked rather drained from this fusion.
"Let's go help my dad and Connie, before," said Steven
"Too late," said a voice nearby
A black pearl is at the pod where Connie and Steven's day remained out cold.
"Time to go," sneered the black pearl "The queen is waiting."
Black pearl got in the pod and then were teleported away, then after that the pod explodes.
"Dad, Connie," yelled Steven
It was too late, they are gone.
"Sounds like you need some help," said Gordon
"That armor of yours looks weird," said Peridot
"So who are you?" asked Garnet
"The names Gordon Freeman," said Gordon
