The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 37.

Peridot: Why don't you just disobey them? Rebel. Isn't that, like, your guys' thing?

Iron: (chuckles*) Are you suggesting, steven should betray them?

Peridot: Well yeah! Isn't that being a crystal gem would look like?!

Steven: You're right peridot. Oh, I know! I'll fall asleep and go into a Watermelon Steven again. This way, I can help them and be safe at the same time. (chuckles and lies down on the mattress*)

Peridot: Wow. You're a real anarchist.

Steven: No one can tell... me what to do. (dozes off and starts snoring*)

Peridot: Wait, what do I do now? Don't just leave us here! (sighs deeply*)

Iron: (rolls her eyes*) You're overreacting.

Peridot: (yells*) I'm not overreacting you clod!

At Mask Island*

Two Watermelon Stevens are playing hacky sack together, when one of them starts convulsing and falls unconscious onto the ground. It then sits up, successfully possessed by Steven. Another tremor occurs, and the other Watermelon Stevens run away in panic. Steven then runs to the beach, where he sees you with the Crystal Gems and Malachite, struggling against her chains in the water.

Garnet : Alright. Let's put an end to this. Y/N, we three will fuse forming alexandrite, after we fused you can ride on our hands. And once you are at our hands, we will throw you and you will take cover for us, got it?

You: Alright, but please make sure you don't put too much pressure on throwing me at malachite.

Garnet: (smirks*) We won't.

You gave them some space to fuse. Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl start dancing and fuse together into Alexandrite. Alexandrite then gives her one of her hands and you instantly jump on it.

Malachite (Jasper): Give up! Argh!

Malachite (Lapis): Noo!!

Malachite effectively breaks free from her water chains.

Malachite (Jasper): (panting*) I'm impressed. You really held out.

Alexandrite: MALACHITE!

Malachite (Jasper): Huh! They're here!

Malachite (Lapis): (grunts*) Ugh, Stop!

Malachite (Jasper): Pathetic! Don't you see?

Malachite: We've been holding us back for too long. And for what? If we're going to be this thing together, why don't we have some fun?

Alexandrite: We don't have to fight! You're outnumbered.

Malachite smirks and rises two water fists out of the sea.

Malachite: I may be outnumbered, but you're out of your depth! I can't wait to tear you Gems apart!

Alexandrite roars and throws you to malachite. Malachite was about to punch you with it's hands but lapis noticed it was you. Lapis used her strength to changed the fist's direction and punched the ground. Alexandrite runs into the water at Malachite, causing a wave that washes Steven away. Alexandrite and Malachite begin to fight. Malachite throws one of her water hands at malachite but alexandrite dodge it, watermelon steven wakes up seeing alexandrite being held by a giant water hand. You now crawled up at malachite's head with two shadow swords.

You: This will be much easier if levi was around.

You sighed and crawled as fast as you can and you thrust your swords at malachite's eyes, you were aiming at the gem of jasper but you can't reach in time. Malachite growls and Alexandrite now used her fire breath to destroy the water hand and let herself go and malachite tried to capture with her hands but you quickly hide at the back, malachite gets rid of the sword and she is shocked, alexandrite sways her fire breathing to malachite but malachite dissapears in the water, you noticed this and you inhaled a lot of air and grab at malachite's hair as hard as you can, malachite appear back and  alexandrite landed, malachite summons some water ice shards and alexandrite deflects it with amethyst's weapon fusing it with pearl's weapon forming opal's bow and arrow. Alexandrite shoots at malachite with a bunch of arrow appear but malachite summons an ice wall blocking it. Two wings appeared and Malachite flies to the air.
