Meeting the Crystal Gems
After following the trail of emerald left behind by the beast I finally catch up with it, however before I approached it my body began growling. Reaching into my pockets I pull out a silver case, opening the case I see only three capsules remaining
"That's Disappointing" I say popping a capsule into my mouth(will be explained)
Before I had the chance to attack the monstrosity I hear the sound of a warp pad
From the Warp Pad came three Gems, Garnet, Pearl, and Amethyst, all three had their weapons drawn, and all three were unaware of the Emerald lurking in the shadows gripping his weapon tightly. Garnet was the first to charge the Emerald Beast only for it to dodge and flee, but was stopped when Amethyst wrapped her gem whip around its leg preventing it from escaping, with its escape out of reach Pearl takes her spear and skewers the Corrupted Gem forcing it back into its gem, Pearl then proceed to encase it in a white bubble, before sending it to the saftey of the Temple. With a calming expression all three walk towards the Warp Pad unaware of the Gem following them, without warning Amethyst retreats to her gem. Pearl and Garnet turn to Amethyst's gem before turning towards Emerald, his weapon smoking as the Crystal Gems resummoned their weapons
"Which one do you Serve, are you Rogue's?, Defective's?, and more importantly who's colony is this?" Emerald said praying it wasn't one of Green Diamonds colonies
Pearl was the first to react by charging at Emerald only to retreat to her gem from Emerald's weapon, with a stern look Emerald places his foot over Pearl's gem
"Answer me" Emerald said pushing down on the Gem
"Very well, we don't serve the Diamonds, we aren't Rogue Gems, or Defective, and this is Earth" Garnet said calming Emerald
"Earth?" Questioned Emerald who lowered his weapon
"I'm on Pink Diamonds failed colony"
Without Hesitation Garnet charges punching Emerald square in the face with her gauntlet. Emerald immediately grabs his nose as it starts bleeding which confuses Garnet
He's like Steven
"Who are you Emerald?" Asked Garnet as she picks something off the ground
"I'm a Defective Gem, I was sent to this planet to hide from Green Diamond" Emerald said as his weapon disappears in a small flash of green
As Garnet began use her future vision when her eyes widen, behind Garnet Amethyst had reformed and summoned her gem weapon, then produced to strike Emerald across his chest sending him flying into the bushes, Amethyst, celebrating her victory began smiling, however her smile faded when Emerald began to stand
"Tell me Quartz?" Emerald said revealing emeraldon his chest
"Was that supposed to hurt?" Emerald said as the emerald vanished from his chest and resummoned his weapon
Even with his armor his words only angered Amethyst to the point where they both readied their weapons
"Amethyst wait" Garnet said placing her gauntlet in front of the purple gem
"Emerald I think it would be wise to come with us" the Gem Fusion said in her monotone voice
"And why would I do that, in case you have forgotten both you and the puny Quartz had the audacity to strike an Emerald" the Green Gem said tightening the grip on his weapon
"Because you might need this" Garnet said showing Emerald I item of importance to him
Emeralds eyes widen at the sight of his silver case
"When did you..."
It must have fell out when she punched me
With a stern look on his face Emerald begins smiling as Garnet's eyes grow wide, without hesitation smooth emerald rapidly covered the ground as it makes its way to the Gems encasing them in pure unbreakable emerald. Emerald then begins to walk towards them, however he failed to realize that the emerald was smooth instead of jagged, and in failing to realize this his first step was his last as he slips and hits his head on the hard emerald ground Knocking him out, with Emerald rendered unconscious the emerald around him began to vanish releasing the Two Crystal Gems, Amethyst and Garnet looked at the unconscious Emerald before picking him up, grabbing Pearl's gem and heading to the Warp Pad
Slowly my eyes open and my gaze was meets three gems, slowly getting up I begin to feel pain in the back of my head
I can't believe I knocked myself out
Ignoring the pain in my head I perform the Diamond salute as I apologize
"I, Emerald facet 7X5L wish to humbly apologize to the three of you, especially the Amethyst and the Pearl, I overreacted and I seek your forgiveness" I say bowing in front of the gems
I kinda had to swallow my pride to bow, as an Emerald I am Superior in both combat prowess and intellect and to bow to lesser Gems is a insult upon myself and all Emeralds, however I had no choice, I was at their mercy
And yet I knocked myself out
"Emerald, why are you here?" Asked the square haired Gem
What gem is she, her hair resembles a common Ruby, but her voice carries the tone of a Sapphire, I've never seen a Gem like her
"I was sent to Earth to wait for Someone"
"Wait for who?" Asked the Amethyst
Immediately I begin to press a button on my gem bracer causing 8 green cylindrical rods to float in front of me before forming a holographic screen and keyboard, I begin typing at a rapid pace until I find the Gem file I was looking for
"I'm waiting for Ruby facet 3A8P, he's the one who sent me to this planet...however I don't think he will be able to come to earth anytime soon"
"What makes you say that?" Asked the Pearl
With Hesitation in my movement I play the message Ruby left me
"Emerald if you're hearing this I have a confession to make, the coordinates that I gave you it's not for a location on Homeworld but rather somewhere else, somewhere safe, I...I knew you wouldn't have left unless I told you it was somewhere on Homeworld, I... I promised someone that I will keep you safe, I'm keeping you safe the only way I know how... You have my word that I will come back for you one day but... I don't think it's going to be anytime soon.. Just use what I taught you and survive on that planet... Just remember nothing could make me prouder knowing that... I trained you... Goodbye Emerald Hunter..."
"I received this message as I was leaving homeworld, I haven't heard from him since"
Without saying another word I stand up and look around with my emotions in turmoil but stop when my body begins growling
"Here" the Violet Gem said handing me my silver case
Open the case I swallow one of the two remaining capsules, I need to find a way to create more capsules and make them more potent, because one capsule would last me one day, but the longer I existed the more I needed, now I need at least three a day.
I need to find the ingredients to formulate new more potent capsules
"So, since I'm your prisoner I..." I say as I was interrupted by the white Gem
"Ummmm...you aren't our Prisoner, you can leave anytime you want, but it wouldn't be wise to do so until you have a better understanding of this world" The Pearl said
Looking out the window I see a large pink bubble moving away from the base
"Well since you three are more acquainted with this rock, then can you inform me where I can find these compounds so I can synthesize new capsules" I say sending the holographic screen with a list of ingredients that were needed
"Why do you need these for?" Asked the unknown gem(Garnet)
"So I can make more capsules, I need them to survive, all gems need them" I explained to the Gems waiting for them to understand
That never happened they just got confused
"Ok, I know you gems are lacking in the intellect department, but this is common knowledge" I say getting frustrated
"Emerald...Gems don't require anything on this list to survive" the Tall Gem said
"What nonsense are you speaking"
"What Garnet is saying is that this list isn't for Gems, it's for you" Pearl said earning a confused look on my face
"Why would these only be for me?" I ask still confused
"This is a list of vitamins a hydrating agents, and only humans require these vitamins" explained Pearl
"...wait...I'm...Human?"
So fifth chapter of my Steven Universe Fanfiction Rewrite is completed. Okay few things
