Freeman's Odyssey

Chapter: 117

And the walls came tumbling down


The black pearl is taken by surprise at this, she did not except this to happen as the guards had come and attacked the crystal gems, but are quickly overpowered by the skill of them and she decided to use the prisoners as hostages so they can surrender. Then all of a sudden Steven charges at her with his sword and slashes at the black pearl, she pulls out her whip from her forehead and attacked Steven with it as he had slashed the whip and charges at the pearl. While Amethyst freed the prisoners as Greg and Connie had woken up from being knocked out before.

"I really don't want know," said Greg

"Uh…were on board a ship," said Connie "Let's get out of here,"

"Good idea," said Garnet

"First things first fight out way out," said Pearl


Ships engine room

Peridot and Gordon Freeman got started at their work as they have a plan to sabotage the ship, along the way other guards came in and Peridot was defenseless at first, but managed to get some weapons off the guards and attacked them right back. The ship itself is raising hirer into the sky of the dead world and is now making its way into space.

"Our work is done here let's go," said Gordon

"Good idea," said Peridot "How do we get off this ship,"

"Don't worry," said Gordon "I have a plan,"


Throne room

The Empress is watching on the view screens as the guards being taken out one by one, she grew angry at this and slammed her fist upon her throne, then rising up from her throne. No, she will not let them win and will handle this matter personally. It looks like the Crystal gems are more skilled as they are reported to be and one question does linger in her mind is where is Ruby Quartz? And then she marched off to confront them.


On board the ship

Steven used his shied to deflect several shots from the pearl and propelled her backwards with the shield down the corridor. Then he made a run for it by following the others until the pearl he just propelled forward is propelled backwards, then is slammed into the wall and exploded into pieces. He briefly spotted a large figure running towards them.

"Hey guys," said Steven "Someone big is coming for us,"

"Steven get Greg and Connie," said Garnet "Out of here, we will hold off whoever is coming."

"Got it," said Steven

He runs off with Connie and his father in which he hoped they get off the ship before something happens.

Garnet, Pearl and Amethyst ready their weapons as they do see something coming, someone tall and with purple diamond skin wearing royal robes as this has to be the Empress Purple diamond.

"You think we should fuse in taking care of this one," muttered Pearl

"I suspect the Empress would be tough to taken down if we do fuse," said Garnet

"Never mind let's pound her to the ground," said Amethyst

Amethyst attacked the empress with her whip in which the whip attacks to hit the empress as she simply didn't feel it and slapped Amethyst aside as she is flung across the corridor and Amethyst felt that as it actually hurt, she regained her footing and Garnet used his fists to do a shockwave upon the floor. However it didn't seem to work on the Empress as she opened her mouth and fired a strange beam of intense heat as it propelled all three of them backwards, they regained their footing as the Empress kept on coming.

"None of you are a match for me," said Empress

"We know how the gems were corrupted by the Combine," said Pearl

"Oh do you now," said Empress "Not like any of you will live to tell about it,"

The empress fired the beam from her mouth again and then all of a sudden Steven leaps out of no where. He slashed the right side of the Empress's face with his mother's sword as she bellows in pain and then a large piece of metal came out of no where as well, which strikes her body as she goes tumbling down the corridor.

"Ok time for all of you to go," said Gordon "Follow me,"

Gordon Freeman motioned to follow him as the-one-free-man activated a portal out of thin air from his suit as they all leaped inside and the portal had vanished. The Empress got up from being attacked by a human boy and an object had struck her. No she will not let them escape, there is too much at stake at this. Pieces diamond skin where the human boy had slashed her had fallen off. Taking a piece of cloth she covered that side her face, no they must not see it. She gave chase to them once again.

"Empress the ship is out of control," spoke the pilot on the intercom "We are on a collision course for the home world,"

"Get to the escape pods," ordered the Empress

"We can't they are offline," said the pilot on the intercom "Due to sabotage,"

"Nooooo!" yelled the Empress

She ran to the window and roared in anger; she will not be foiled by Ruby Quartz. Not again as the ship draws closer and closer to the gem home world. Then everything goes black as the ship slams into the planet as a massive explosion can be felt all around the planet.


Beach city: The Universe Beach house

Safe and sound they are as the Crystal gems, along with Steven, Greg, Connie and Gordon had been there in which they know it is another day before something else happens.

"Mr. Freeman thanks for the help," said Garnet

"Yeah you rule," said Amethyst

"Now about this story of yourself you mentioned before," said Pearl

"Please tell a story Gordon," said Steven

"Well you all deserve that much," said Gordon "So ok, my name is Gordon Freeman and you know that already. Here is my tale."

He started explain about himself as he is or was a native of Seattle, Washington life in which he always had it's ups and downs since he got a job to join Black Mesa research facility, as he told them he was an orphan with no parents in which the only thing that people found on him at when he was found on the door step of an orphanage is his name and nothing more.

Gordon explained that he was already regarded as the quiet type and willing to adapt to any situation until he was in his teens as the orphanage at first put money away for him to go to college considering how smart Gordon is who is willing to learn and grow upon in life.

His childhood heroes were Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking, and Richard Feynman because books were his friends in which that is all he had. He told them about an exhibited an early interest in theoretical physics, especially quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity. After observing a series of teleportation experiments conducted by the Institute for Experimental Physics at the University of Innsbruck, the transmission of matter became Gordon's obsession.

He told them he had no known dependents. As he explained he graduated from MIT with a Ph.D. degree in Theoretical Physics. His doctoral thesis on the teleportation of matter through extremely dense elements was titled Observation of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Entanglement on Supraquantum Structures by Induction through Nonlinear Transuranic Crystal of Extremely Long Wavelength (ELW) Pulse from Mode-Locked Source Array.

He told them he took up residence in Black Mesa however his job in general in regards was nothing more than a joke like manual labor, despite his qualifications. Consisting of little more than pressing a button and pushing a cart as he found that to be a little embarrassing at times, but it paid well and Gordon often wondered if he would be doing this utter nonsense for the rest of his life. At time he spent in Black Mesa he only said a few words and kept his mouth shut most of the time, he considered himself a little anti-social being an orphan and all.

An inter-dimensional rift in space time happened and his world changed forever, as he told them in detail in which he became something he would never thought in becoming. A hero, he never dreamed he was one. In which he explained he survived all the challenges and got the respect of a few people for his acts of bravery. Then he wound up in another dimension called Xen and doing battle against an alien warlord named Nihilanth

He told them to never mind about the name, as he told them he killed the alien warlord and then he was confront by a being he despises the most, the G-man. The people noticed in the room how angry he got with that name. He was given a choice to live or die in a form of a deal. Gordon did not want to do either, then all of sudden the choice was made but not by him. No it was the G-man himself. Gordon explained in detain It wasn't until two decades later he had learned the G-man put him in a place far from time, space, thought and even Earth itself.

The G-man stated the right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world it wouldn't be an understatement it is a fact as Gordon found himself in the middle of the occupation by an inter-dimensional alien empire known as the Combine. They in fact conquered the Earth in seven hours thanks in part to a traitor named Dr. Wallace Breen, that name alone made his blood boil. Then he went to explain uprisings, creatures and other things as well in which began as Gordon helped in many ways often doing battle against combine forces until finally driven out of his dimension.

Then finally he explained after the death of a friend of his, his other friends went off to the artic in finding a ship owned by Black Mesa had survived and after discovering technology like the Hazardous Environmental Suit that was on board the Borealis Finally told them he went on several adventures in other dimensions.

"Whoa!" said all of them at once

"You mentioned the combine," said Garnet "We found a diamond box that tells of a war between the Gems and the Combine ten thousand years ago,"

"I'll play the diamond box," said Steven

"My suits dimensional scanners have detected no Combine presence," said Gordon

Gordon watches the diamond box as some woman is speaking and then it had finished.

"So what happens now," said Pearl

"I better get going," said Gordon "Have fun you guys,"

"Bye come back soon," said Steven

Gordon Freeman walks out of the beach house as it is a nice sunny day, he will be leaving soon.


Freeman's log

I came upon a dimension full of strange creatures known as Gems as they were involved in a war against the combine over 10 thousand years ago and is also told the gems were corrupted some how. No one really knows that mystery and I will perhaps come back to find that mystery. He continues to mention the gems and what they are.

End Log

Gordon creates a portal from his suit as he enters the portal as him and the portal simply vanished into thin air.


The Gem home world

The crater was large from the impact of the ship slamming into the home world of the gems, fires along with debris are scattered all around. It was a dead calm, in which the ship had hit the meadow area of the gem home world, piles upon piles of debris are everywhere and spot lights from smaller ships are looking for any survivors, something start to stir in one pile of debris and purple/black hand rises and shakes from the debris.
