Opening File: Steven Universe
Steven Universe is the son of Greg Universe and Rose Quartz, the only known hybrid of a human and a Gem and the first Crystal Gem of human descent. As a result of his parentage, Steven is an extraordinarily unique being with innate powers beyond that of normal humans and Gems. While he was only a child, Steven steadily grew from a tag-along to the Crystal Gems into the heart of the team thanks to his kind-hearted nature and resourcefulness. Steven is devoted to protecting humanity and helping those in need just as Rose Quartz did, however it is recently shown that his mother made a great deal of mistakes that continue to haunt him and the Crystal Gems.
As a human/Gem hybrid, Steven possesses unique physiology, resembling a fusion of a Gem and a human. He is capable of using Gem magic, though it is unknown if he possesses all the abilities of a pure Gem, such as retreating to their gemstone when taking fatal damage. As associated with his gemstone, Steven's powers are maternal, and the control of his gemstone is based on emotional clarity.
Steven has shown to have some abilities of a regular Gem, but sometimes has little control over them due to not receiving enough training. He can warp using the Warp Pads and bubble objects and gemstones to be teleported to the Temple with seemingly full control. He is not strictly oxygen-dependent and is vacuum-resistant. Steven is also capable of shapeshifting, but he has not yet learned to fully control it. His first attempt was disastrous, temporarily turning him into a cat monster. He has not been able to change his form entirely but can freely shapeshift parts of his body. His greatest feat in shapeshifting was shown on his own birthday, where he can use shapeshifting to make himself appear older.
Despite his happy-go-lucky and cheerful attitude, he shows himself to be a competent shield fighter and can hold his own in most situations with his skill consistently increasing due to practice. Despite being educated in an isolated environment and never attending conventional school, he possesses a good deal of knowledge not only on general topics, but also in scientific and technical fields like physics, chemistry, and geography due to being educated by the highly intellectual Pearl. However, due to the Crystal Gems' obliviousness about some human activities, he is quite oblivious about some social terms.
Steven has recently learned he is the nephew of his father's older half brother Wirt and the cousin of Maurice. Currently he is on a mission to the center of the Earth to prevent the emergence of the Cluster. Steven is optimistic, friendly, outgoing, soft-hearted, and carefree with a happy-go-lucky attitude that is appreciated by many of the citizens of Beach City in one way or another. He is musically inclined, a trait inherited from his father, with a propensity for breaking out into song and occasionally playing on his ukulele.
Steven sees the best in everyone and is also very compassionate, something which Pearl notes he inherits from his mother and treasures his friends and family. He is friendly toward almost everyone he meets (even to his detriment), rarely holds grudges, and is non-discriminatory, never treating anyone with prejudice, even enemies. No matter the situation, Steven will always go out of his way to support his loved ones, even if it means putting his life on the line and he will avoid resorting to violence if possible. He would much rather make a compromise and choose to reason than fight back.
Steven looks up to his caretakers — Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl — and considers them family. He wants to be a great hero just like them and is eager to go on adventures with the trio, both to prove his worth and to have fun exploring strange lands. Despite his underdeveloped magical power and lack of experience, he has proven himself to have much heroic potential through his resourcefulness, optimism, and confidence.

"Many of those who are skilled in either magic or technological believe it is not necessary to partake in physical training." The screen began with a close up of Sammael's face, showing only his right eye as it opened before shifting to another scene with Phil Ken Sebben fighting against the Bodach sent by Crom Cruach. "In an age where missiles, plasma blasters, armor and the most advanced fighting machines imaginable…"
MEGAS is shown next battling against the Glorft, followed by Ben Tennyson with the Omnitrix.
"Compared to these machines and the intellect to use them, muscular strength must appear merely a method of showing the appearance of strength."
Nyx is then shown fighting the Grim Reaper.
"Magic offers a similar mind set as what can physical strength do against the power to reshape the world around you?"
Only for a certain boomerang to appear and shatter Nyx's magical body in half.
"They are wrong."
Valhallen is then shown sparring against Lowemon, the Warrior of Darkness. (See GrimmFall: Tales of Many)
"The mind and body are linked, both physically and spiritually. An intricate web of oxygen, cells, nutrients, hormones and neurons. The ability to physically train one's body and perfect the physical half, drives that web, stimulating the mind and disciplining the spirit. Physical training, simulated combat offers the benefit of training one's eyesight to spot even the smallest of errors in the right moment and either capitalize on it or to quickly avoid it and thus saving yourself and your allies from defeat."
Artemis and Erika Ahlberg as shown shooting at each other in the training area of the Hall of Heroes.
"A chance to direct the focus from something rather important to something else can even free up the mind to focus on questions yet to be answered. A simulated battle, often shows the warrior realizing the answer to some of these questions at the most unexpected times. Such exercises can even serve a smaller purpose."
Sammael is shown again, now smiling at the screen. "It is important to train the mind, body and spirit to a state of near perfection into order to become the ultimate warrior. The body to fight the physical battle, the mind to react to all unexpected variables in battle, and the spirit to will the warrior to battle through any and all obstacles no matter how large or dangerous they might be."

(Years ago in another dimension known as Pillow World)
A woman with purple hair styled in a pony sighed as she leaned against a pillow tree staring up at the moon as she was bathed in its moonlight. She frowned staring up at it as she had come out here to think and get some time alone after what happened earlier today. Which brought her mind back to this afternoon and what the love of her life and father of her child Hoagie Gilligan told her.
About the unwanted visit from Bill Cipher and what that demented triangle had told him.
And after blowing up at him and nearly blasting him into another random dimension herself she had ultimately finally calmed down and fell into his arms in tears as she ultimately agreed that the plan despite the risk was the best bet for their daughter
She felt her hands clench into fists and her eyes water as she gave a growl knowing and hating that despite the potential danger and risk especially considering the source of the information.
She...she had to make the potential choice for her daughter by giving her a chance at a life on Earth. Even if...she closed her eyes as tears fell across her face, even if it meant in just a few years she'd have to say goodbye to her...forever.
"Heheh looks like somebody's having a bad time~" However her solitude and pain was disturbed by all too familiar and hated voice as her eyes flew open before narrowing in a glare, "Don't tell me you're actually upset at getting rid of some dead weight~"
She gave a deep almost feral growl as she uttered the name twisting and jumping back, "Klarion."
Her eyes landed on her shadow which twisted and shifted into another, and two red glowing eyes started to stare back her with her just feeling the smirk, "I wondered if you'd be showing up."
She spat with her fists at her side, "After Hoagie told me about Cipher's visit, I figured you wouldn't be far behind."
The shadow gave a shrug, "Well how could I resist the chance to visit my favorite student to see how she's doing." The red eyes narrowed, "I'm still waiting for my thank you by the way."
Nyx gave Klarion an incredulous look.
"Thank you?!" She said in disbelief, "For what?!" She snapped roaring, "For making my life a nightmare, for banishing Hoagie and me to this dimension, for taking us away from our families?!"
She would have continued but Klarion spoke up, "For giving you the chance to live out the little fantasy you always wanted?"
He said in a bored tone, and she swore the red orbs rolled, "What?!" She yelled with the shadow giving her a hard stare.
"You heard me." The shadow moved from the tree to behind her on the ground growing in size and length, "You always claimed that you didn't want anything to do with me, and just wanted a normal life."
"And I do!" She snapped only for the shadow to laugh at her
"Hehe...right~" Klarion drawled out in obvious amused tone, "That's why despite your complaints during your training calling them torture sessions."
He ignored Nyx glaring at him dismissing her pain.
"You delved and learned all you could from my book or any kind of magical knowledge you could get your hands on."
She froze at those words.
"I.." She started to say only for Klarion to speak over her.
"Face it we both know you love the power and would find life without it or any kinda of magic just plain dull and boring."
Nyx looked away from the shadows gaze not saying a word.
"The only reason you moaned about wanting a normal life was because of this silly rebellion of yours." He scoffed, "And you clinging to the lie that you're a good girl."
The red eyes flared out, "When we both know very well that's a lie."
Nyx mouth open but Klarion roared out to it, "And don't deny it either Nyxie!"
The eyes gleamed viciously at her, "Or have you forgotten what you did to those two senile spirits."
She froze as she stuttered out, "I was protecting my sister and the rest of the town by making sure they couldn't hurt anybody again."
Her denial only caused Klarion to laugh at her.
"Riiiight~" He said in a tone of obvious disbelief, "And I suppose next you're going to tell me you didn't enjoy it~"
She looked away clenching her fists.
"Plus that's just one example Nyx" The air was filled with his laughter, "Face it as much as you deny you found my book and became my apprentice for a reason."
A cruel tone entered his voice, "So you can enjoy this little fantasy and play house as much as you like." He shrugged, "Consider it my gift to you before you become what you were always meant to be."
Nyx glared hard at the shadow clenching her fists, "But ultimately it can't change the cold hard truth that you keep trying to deny."
"That you and I are a lot more alike than you'd like to believe~"
"SHUT UP!"
Nyx finally roared out having enough as she thrust her hands forward toward the ground and shot a powerful burst of magic towards the shadow.
BOOOM!
"Hehehehhehahaa~" Only for the air to be filled with Klarions laughter, "Hehe don't worry i'm going consider this our last chat till you graduate from apprentice to Lady of Chaos Nyx~"
She whirled around trying to find him, but the air only echoed with his fading laughter as she growled quietly to herself, "I'm nothing like you." She spat as she turned away and started to make her way back home, determined to put this visit and her 'masters' words out of her mind. Because he was just trying to get inside her head that's all.
She wasn't anything like him... was she?

"STEVEN!"
Only when the smoke cleared, Steven was standing up and a pink shield was being projected from his arm.
"What?!" Nergal got up and gaped to see his attack had failed.
Behind Steven, Garnet rose up and put a hand on his shoulder. "Steven…Thank you. You saved all of us."
Steven looked up to see Garnet smiling down at him. "Garnet…"
"Now, hurry and free Peridot and Connie." Garnet turned her gaze to Nergal, glaring from underneath her glasses. "We'll take care of Nergal."
Steven nodded as Garnet walked past him, summoning her gauntlets. Amethyst and Pearl summoned their weapons as well, glaring darkly at Nergal who looked between them and Johnny.
"Nergal, what you did to us…It was a violation of everything we believe in. Everything I stand for! Forcefully melding us into your sick and twisted mind, letting you control us like mindless puppets. An even perversion of fusion than I ever thought possible." Garnet's hands clenched into fists and she brought one up to her chest. "I swear, as a Crystal Gem we are going to free the Cluster from your grasp…Nergal…"
She glared angrily at Nergal as she brought her hand from her chest and held up both fists, ready to fight. "PREPARE TO MEET YOUR FATE!"
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"
The first thing Connie and Peridot saw when they could finally see again was the raging battle between Nergal and the Crystal Gems and the reincarnation of the Asgardian God of Thunder, Johnny Bravo. Nergal was lashing out with his tendrils in all directions, trying to hit just one of his enemies but the Gems were too fast, and Johnny batted them away with his hammer.
"What's going on?!" Peridot exclaimed, too stunned to remember anything.
"That's Nergal, he's taken control of the Cluster and he tried to take control of us but I stopped him." Steven quickly said before looking down at the dark sphere surrounding the Cluster. "And now I am going to do the same for the Cluster."
Peridot and Connie barely had an idea what Steven was talking about as he walked over to the edge, looking down at the massive dark sphere that had engulfed the Cluster.
All those broken Gems…
They were shattered but it hadn't stopped.
Nergal took control of them and was forcing them to carry out his evil bidding.
But no more.
Steven's gem then began to glow and he started panting and breathing heavily. "I got to…I got to help…I GOT TO HELP THEM!"
He jumped over the edge, causing everyone to freeze as the Gems screamed out. "STEVEN!"
As Steven fell, he opened his eyes and seemingly saw a hallucination of ghoulish faces floating upwards…
And then he fell into darkness.
Xxx
Steven then slowly woke up, finding himself suspended in what appears to be a starry sky with multiple voices echoing all around.
'Must... Have to... Want to... Need to... Have to...'
Steven soon realized the 'stars' are actually Gem shards, floating all around him.
'Want to... Need to... Want to...'
A Gem shard floated past Steven. A small broken voice could be heard from it as its glow pulsates but there was also a darkness seemingly infecting it.
'...want to...need to...'
"You... want to? Want to what?" Steven slowly asked.
A strong white light envelops Steven and the voices cried out in unison.
'FORM!'
A deeper demonic voice immediately followed.
'CONTROL!'
Steven screams and covered his ears. "Please! Stop!"
The light subsided and the voices cried out.
'…ark…Fi…Res…'
Steven watched as the same darkness he saw with the light spread out to infect all the 'stars'. "It's the Cluster. I'm talking to the Cluster?! But... how did I get inside your brain? Brains?"
'Have to... Want to... Need to... MUST!'
Steven gasped "Wait! Please don't take form!"
The light returned and the Cluster chanted aggressively. 'Form! Form! Form! Form! Want form! Want form! FORM!'
And the other voice came in. 'Spread! Infect! Harmony! Control!'
Steven covered his ears, and the light and chanting subside again. "That voice…It's Nergal. He's still inside your brains, isn't he? He's trying to take control of you. That's why you can't form. Maybe instead of forming you could do something else?
The light and chanting returned, forcing Steven to cover his ears.
'FORM!'
'CONTROL!'
"Boy, you've sure got the one-trackiest mind I ever met." Steven muttered.
'Need FORM!'
'MUST SPREAD!'
"Agh!" Steven cried out, the strain from both the Cluster and seemingly Nergal starting to give him a major headache.
'To be whole…Help us…' The Cluster voices began to beg.
'ALL WILL BECOME ONE!' The Nergal voice shouted.
"Whole? One?" Steven noticed the Gem shard that floated past him earlier, the small dark substance spreading over it. "Oh."
'Have to...'
"You're shards. You just wanna find the rest of your gems. But forming won't help you find the rest of yourselves. You'll just destroy the Earth!" Steven called out. "And Nergal wants to use you to take control of everyone! You can't let him!"
'No. No, no. No! No.'
"But if you wanna find other gems, there's so many of you right here! Look." Steven pushed a shard next to another. "Shard, meet shard!"
The shards glow weakly as they begin to converse, halting the dark essence from spreading.
'Have to...'
'Want to...'
'Stop.' The Nergal voice commanded but sounded weaker.
"See? You already have so much to talk about. You don't have to do what Nergal says." Steven suggested "You can all work together and stop him!"
The Cluster's voices raised in commotion as they begin to speak to each other. Bubbles of light surround Steven as he smiles.
'Hi! Oh, hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Oh, hi!'
'Stop…Stop conversing…You belong to me.'
"No, they don't, Nergal!" Steven called out to the surrounding darkness. "They have their own wishes and dreams. They want to become whole but that will never happen with you!"
The Cluster was soon engulfed in a warm bright light, burning away the darkness infecting all the shards.
'NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!'
Xxx
Nergal paused just after Steven fell over the edge, having almost tried to attack the Gems when they were distracted.
Only something happened.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Nergal fell to his knees, clutching his head. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, BOY?!"
He could feel the control slipping away.
The control he had over the Cluster for centuries.
It was breaking free.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Xxx
"This is great! You don't even need to form. You can just stay here!" Steven cheered, believing he had found a solution.
The Cluster wouldn't form and Nergal had lost control. He could see the dark essence that had infected all of the Gem shards burning away.
'Want to stay.'
Links began to form between bubbles of light. The light then suddenly subsided momentarily, then burst back again, with the Cluster crying out in anguish.
"Can't stop! Going to form! Can't stop! Going to form! Help! Help! Help!"
"It's okay. If I just bubble you, you won't have to come out. It'll keep you safe. Here, look, like this!" Steven quickly began bubbling the shards near him. "I can bubble you! I can bubble you! I can bubble you!"
Despite his intentions, Steven became exhausted very quickly. "Ah. Well, that's five. Out of..." He looked at the billions of shards scattered all around. "Oh jeez... I'm sorry! I can't do it alone!"
The bubbles of light pulsated around Steven, pushing him to and from. Steven started to float away from the Cluster and he tried to reach back out to the light with no success.
Xxx
"STEVEN!"
As he woke up, the worried faces of Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl were looking down at him while he was resting in Garnet's arms.
"Steven! Wake up!" Pearl cried out.
Once Steven regained consciousness, he sat upright in Garnet's arms and gasped. "It doesn't wanna form!"
"What?" The Gems asked.
"We gotta put it in a bubble!" Steven continued.
"Bubble that?!" Pearl gaped and gestured down to the brightly glowing Cluster below. "That's impossible!"
Just as Pearl said that small bubbles then begin to form on the Cluster's surface.
Steven gasped. They're bubbling each other!
Steven bends down on one knee and places his hands on the ground. "I've got you. You've got this. We've all got each other!"
With the help of the Gem shards, Steven managed to encase the Cluster in a huge pink bubble much to the shock of the Crystal Gems.
"He bubbled the entire thing?!" Pearl gaped, unable to believe what had happened.
Garnet and Amethyst were equally speechless, only able to react as Steven fell down and looked like he was about to pass out again.
"He bubbled the whole thing…"
Peridot and Connie were equally stunned.
This one single hybrid had stopped what should have been Homeworld's most powerful weapon.
The Diamonds would never believe this.
"NO!"
Everyone spun around in time as Nergal slammed Johnny into the ground and sent him flying right at the Gems. Garnet managed to catch Johnny, saving him from flying over the edge.
"You wretched mortals!" Nergal snarled and gestured all around. "Look what you've done!"
The surrounding Nerglings were all on the ground, their black skin dissolving to reveal…
Children.
Humans, Faunus and Mobian children, all unconscious and all of them free from Nergal's control.
"You took away my weapon and my children!" Nergal snarled, his voice turning demonic while his body glowed red. "Forget having new friends. I will rip your insides out for this!"
INFINITY TRAIN ARC
Opening File: One-One
One, or most commonly known as One-One, was the companion of Tulip who was trying to help her find a way back home. One-One can split into two halves, each with its own personality. The two halves are called Sad-One and Glad-One by the production staff, but as a single unit, they are called One-One. One-One is also the true conductor of the Infinity Train and regains his position thanks to Tulip.
As One-One is a twin single robot composed of two independent parts, it has two separate personalities. As a single unit, One-One often flickers between the two different personalities.
Sad-One:
Sad-One, the sad half of One-One, is morbidly pessimistic, practically always having a monotone voice and acting very downcast no matter the situation. Sad-One is almost always in a state of despondency, often shooting down any hopeful remarks. Though Sad-One is always pessimistic, it will sometimes drop pearls of wisdom that, ironically, encourages people.
Glad-One:
Glad-One, the glad half of One-One, is cloyingly optimistic. It has a strong sense of happiness, never speaking in a voice that is not overjoyed. Glad-One never deviates from his happiness and will always see life in the most optimistic way possible. Glad-One is also very naive, to the point of doing things with reckless abandon. Its naiveté, mixed with its strong sense of optimism, makes Glad-One have a strong lack of self-preservation.
Many years ago, One was created by an unknown force to operate a train as its Conductor. As the Conductor, One's purpose was to create train cars and maintain them, in order to help passengers as they worked through their issues. When a passenger named Amelia Hughes made it to the front of the train, he showed her the purpose of the Train by showing the process of two boys named Ryan Akagi and Min-Gi Park. Amelia was confused that One was processing the two boys at the same time, but One explained that his algorithm has determined that this was the best course of action, as anything can happen on the train, given enough time. As One sent the two boys off, Amelia asked what would happen if the two boys don't sort their problems out, to which One calmly claimed that they'll die.
As time when on, Amelia begged One to a car with her deceased partner, Alrick, in it. However, he refused, as it was contrary to the rules and purpose of the train. Amelia responded by ripping him out of the control panel and sending him to the Snow Car. This action wiped One's memories and split him into dual personalities, dubbed "Sad One" and "Glad One", who together formed the entity of 'One-One'. One-One remained trapped in the Snow Car for thirty-three years while plagued with the persistent feeling that he was supposed to find his 'mum.'
One-One later met Tulip and traveled through the train with her to help her and regain his lost memories. During their journey, they met Samantha the Cat whom One-One was traded to for a time before Tulip got him back.

Opening File: Steward
The Steward is a robot and like the name suggests, there used to be multiple Stewards whose original purpose was to tend to passengers. After Amelia took over as conductor the Stewards were almost all destroyed aside from one, used by her as an assistant, picking up power orbs from the various cars to use in her efforts to create a car of her old life with Alrick Timmens. It was also used to enforce Amelia's philosophy as conductor that the passengers were better off remaining in their own cars. After One-One was restored to his position as conductor of the Infinity Train he repaired the last Steward and reprogrammed it to carry out its original purpose in tending to the passengers.

"Hm-Hm-Hm…Hm-Hm-Hm."
"Must you sing that song over and over again?"
"It is my favorite."
"It's the only one we know."
"Not true. We know…Hum-Hum-Hum…Hum-Hum-Hum."
"That's just adding in a 'U'."
"Well, it makes sound more peaceful."
"Peace is a lie."
"There is no lie. There is only peace."
"There is only quiet so we can hear the utter despair of our souls."
"Do we have souls?"
"We are cold metal."
"We are the heart."
"We beat for the one."
THUD!
"Hm? Did you hear that?"
THUD!
"I hear the stomping sounds of doom."
THUD!
"Must it always be doom?"
THUD!
"Yes."
SMASH!
CRASH!
One-One, the conductor of the Infinity Train watched as the rear end of the front car was smashed open with something crashing through the roof. It was a giant red colored golem with a white colored face/mask with a glowing red eye.
"I believe that is the face of our doom."
"Maybe it's not. Maybe it's a new addition."
The golem lowered its right hand, showing Mandy and Xavier as they stepped off the hand and onto the floor.
"So, you're the famous One-One. The conductor of the Infinity Train." Mandy noted, spotting the sphere-shaped robot embedded in the giant computer.
"Do we know you?"
"She looks really mean. We probably do."
"I am Mandy and I'm taking over this train." Mandy stepped forward. "If you don't want to be smashed, you'll tell me where the Gem of Creation."
"Gem of Creation? Am I supposed to know that?"
"Sounds important. We probably don't."
"The Gem of Creation was used to create this very train. It was meant to hide that Gem and to help the people of the real world with their problems, to better strengthen them all against the darkness." Mandy approached the giant computer. "I doubt the conductor wouldn't know about the Gem that made this scrapheap."
"Do we know? She says we should know."
"She doesn't sound like someone we want to know."
"Good point."
Mandy narrowed her eyes as she held up a hand, conjuring a fiery flaming orb. "Either the next words from your voice box are what I want to know or I'll just scrap you here and now."
"Well, since you put it like that…"
"Security!"
Mandy narrowed her eyes and jumped to the side as something lashed out at her with a metallic tendril. Turning her head, she was greeted with the sight of an enigmatic robotic 'creature' composed primarily of a white mask that has multiple tentacle-like cables extending from it, with each ending in a three-clawed 'hand'. The mask is primarily white and resembles the face of a human with gray lips. Its mechanized nature becomes more apparent when the mask is removed, as behind it is an inner working of gears and a flame producing tube, akin to a flamethrower. It produces neon blue flames that seep out through the eyes of the mask. It has also been seen to produce barrels that shoot out bullets from its eyes.
"This is our friend, Steward!" The happy side of One-One introduced.
"He's no fun with cards."
The Steward lashed out with another tendril, forcing Mandy to dodge by jumping back. She made a gesture and the Geist/Golem Grimm raised a hand to smash the machine…
SLASH!
SLASH!
SWISH!
Only to have its arm slashed to pieces.
"Whoa!" Xavier shouted as he jumped off.
The Steward attacked again, slashing at the Geist Golem as it attempted to fight back but its size actually made it an easier target.
SLASH!
SLASH!
SLASH!
SLASH!
SLASH!
"Slash! Slash! Swish! Cut!" The happy side of One-One happily said.
"I hope no one asks him to cut up their bread."
In a matter of seconds, the Geist Golem had been cut down to pieces with the Geist rising up to flee…
SLASH!
And was cut down in an instant.
"You bring Grimm onto this train? It's against the rules to bring Grimm into the train."
"They never clean up and they never go away. They make perfect pets."
Mandy turned to One-One, her red eyes flaring. "So that's how you want to play?"
She held out her hand and fired a blast of fiery light. One-One, likely knowing he was in danger shot out of the computer console and rolled away just before it was hit and exploded.
BOOM!
Mandy spotted the little robot along the floor and fired several more blasts.
BOOM!
BOOM!
The Steward rushed in and picked One-One up, a slot opening under its 'face' and placed One-One inside before rushing out of the back of the engine car.
Xavier moved to pursue but Mandy held up a hand. "Don't bother."
Xavier turned and looked at her. "But we need him to find the Gem of Creation."
"We don't need him. We just the train to show us." Mandy turned to the smashed computer and scowled. "Find me some workers to put this back together."
