The shadow assassin (steven universe reader-insert)

Chapter 12

The three of you eventually reaches the top and arrive at a huge platform in the middle of a flooded cave.

Pearl: Welcome to Rose's Secret Armory! (smiles widely*)

You: Woah...

You are speechless at rose's collection of armor. This are all belongings to the well known armors that shaped humanity. To swords to guns, you are incredibly amazed.

Pearl: Woah, is right y/n. You and steven need to learn about your kind's greatest armor-

Steven: Woah... I've been here before!

Pearl: (smile quickly fades away*) Wha- ? You must be thinking of someplace else, I'm the only other Crystal Gem that's witnessed the Armory's magnificence before now.

Steven: Nuh-uh, Lion showed me.

Pearl: The lion?!

You: Pearl, are you okay?

Pearl: Yeah, yeah. Let's go up to the platform.

Steven then beckons Pearl and the three of you walk towards the center of the platform.

Steven: Yeah! There's all kinds of great stuff hidden in here.

The platform begins to glow as Steven steps on it, startling Pearl a bit.

You: (At the background*) Uh guys, is this thing safe?

Pearl: I know! That's why I brought you here! Now let me show you how you can access the artillery.

Steven: That's okay! I can do it without you. Wham!

Steven walks up and presses his hand on the hand pedestal. Nothing happens for a brief moment.

You: Uhhh... Nothing's happening.

Steven: Oh, right! (pokes himself in the cheek, and the armory activates*) We got some... axes.

Pearl: The Axes of Ages?

Steven: (pokes his side* ) Oh! We got spikey chain lady and her metal dealies.

Pearl: The Heretic's Anguish?!

Steven: We got a... (pokes his side again*)

O-oh! Three pack of laser light cannons.

Pearl: The Quartizine Trio!

Pearl gets frustrated and you are just astraunded of rose's armory. I mean, you sometimes read all of the weapons that you see. The history books says that these weapons are only a myth. But now, they're wrong. The very own famous weapons that was known for centuries are right here all along.

You: This is amazing!! I can't believe that all of earth's historical and well known weapons are right here all along!! I thought they where all a myth!! Pearl, why is it all hiding here? Many humans said that all of these are either lost, destroyed, or well hidden?

Pearl: (immediately smiles back at you*) Well at least someone is having fun at these trip.

Pearl: Well y/n. The very own owners of this weapons said that we should hide it from your kind as some sort of protection to your own kind. They say that, please don't be offended. That all of you weren't ready for knowing the truth about them.

You now realized what they are all doing. Knowing the fact that humans have a crave for knowing the truth, they will do anything for it. Even bad doings thing if necessary.

Pearl: But of course these are nothing to the-

Steven: (pokes his nose*) Boop! And... a whole lot of these armor guys.
