The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 32.

Peridot: (while looking at you and iron*) Log date 7-11-2. It's the third rotation of the earth since commencements of a... (inhales deeply*)...collaborative approach to stopping the cluster. One of my first notice is that the iron or specifically one of my escort during the mission, has taken an interest on the human named "y/n". I don't know what are the two up to but certainly they have-

Peridot is interrupted by pearl.

Pearl: I've finished drawing out the blueprints for the drill head. Peridot, if you could come take a look at this.

Peridot stops recording on her recorder and goes outside. You and Iron now put down the box.

You: Does peridot always have to record everything she notices around?

Iron: Yes, Peridots served mainly as technicians and kindergarteners, sometimes performing field assignments on other planets. Being workers, Peridots had a low rank, only being allowed into elite homeworld areas if a job was needed to be done there.

You: Well what about you then? What do Irons do on homeworld or what is their purpose?

Iron: And why should I tell you?

You: I already told you why black diamond gave me his gem, it's only fair I get an any information from you considering I defeated you right? But first let's sit down first.

You sit down and pat the ground signalizing her to sit down next to you.

Iron: Ugh, (rolls her eyes*) oh my god I can't believe I'n doing this.

Iron sits down next to you.

Iron: (sighs*) Fine, ehem. We Iron gems are like jaspers and amethyst soldiers. We are sent to other planets to go into war. Back in the gem war, we are always on the front line but when era 2 started, the gem military has not only improve it's technologies we also improve our tactics because we learned our mistakes on the gem war.  Since era 2 started, we Iron gems are now at long range distance formations using our force push to make it easy for amethyst and jasper gems to move forward.

You: Wow, (you nodded a few times*) Uh-I don't know what to say about homeworld. So, are you an era 1 gem who had been into war countless times?

Iron remains silent and started to cry.
You noticed her and instantly grab her on her left shoulder

You: Iron, why are you crying?

Iron is grabbing her gem and had a flashback.

Flashback*

Iron, was about to shatter rose but arrow stab her in the back of her chest. Making her poof to the ground

Flashback end:

Iron: (to herself*) That bastard... If only if..(recalls her flashback and cried even more*) I shattered her.

While she is crying, she recalls all of the horrible things that happened to her. After she reforms on homeworld she was beaten up by her fellow iron gems. She was bullied, discriminated, and was being thrown like trash. After that, yellow diamond called her and she was torchered by again and again. Everyone blames the Iron gems because there was a chance to win the rebellion but Iron, the iron on the story that failed. So, not only she received a lot of bullying to fellow homeworld gems, she received a terrible harassment from her very own gem kind and she blame herself for that. Iron is still suffering from inside but she decided to brush it off.

Iron: I will check pearl's work.

Iron stands up and walks away.

You: Wait!
