Steven Universe: Advent of the Gara Droids

Chapter 1: The Birth of Gien Part 1


Homeworld 6,000 years ago.

On the Gem Homeworld, The Diamond Authority ruled all. There were four of them, White, Yellow, Blue and Pink. They conquered planets and colonized them to expand there empire. All the gems followed them and saw how great they were and worshiped them. All except one, a Peridot. She didn't have to wear limb enhancers since she wasn't really short. Her hair was square shaped her gem was on her chest. She entered the throne room to present the Diamonds her latest experiments.

Yellow Pearl: My diamond, the Peridot is here for her presentation.

Yellow Diamond: Lets just get this over with, let her in.

Yellow Pearl opens the door and the Peridot enters.

Peridot: Greetings my diamonds. This is Peridot Facet-7F2L Cut-XJ9 reporting. First I must say thank you for sparing your time to see this. I promise you that what I have in store will be great for the future of Homeworld and...

Yellow interupts Peridot.

Yellow Diamond: Get to the point XJ9.

Peridot XJ9: Um right, so what I have here is that I feel like we may not have the resources for our planet one day. We may not be able to create anymore gems for specific classes, military or servants. That's why I created the Gara Droids. Specifically designed droids that are programmed for specific positions and are loyal to the end. I have few already made to show you. First for servant class I have these two droids. Acha, Kocha!

The door opens and two gara droids come out. The first one was Acha, a tall slender droid about the size of a pearl and resembled a protocol droid ( from star wars). His face and body was split into two colors. His left side was silver and his right was a dark bronze . His eyes were slanted and were yellow. His mouth was just a small rectangular mouth that didn't move, but he could still talk and had a scottish accent. He was carrying a smaller droid with him, Kocha. She was the size of an aquamarine. She looked a lot like a chibi doll. She had a metallic looking dress and a bobbed hair style that was made of metal. She could still fly in the air without forming wings. Her face also was split into two colors her right side was white with a black eye with a white pupil and her left was black and had a white eye with a black pupil. Her eyes also had that chibi/anime style. She spoke with a british accent.

Acha: ( as he walks up to the Diamonds) Greetings my bright, luminouse, shiny, magnifce...

Before he could finish, Acha trips and falls face down to the ground. Kocha jumps out of his arms and floats before he fell on her. The Diamonds just glared at them, but pink chuckled a little.

Kocha: ( whispering to Acha) Get up dummy, your giving us a bad first impression.

Acha reacts quickly and gets up and wipes down any dirt on his body. He looks back up to the Diamonds as they just glare at them. He momentarily panics.

Acha: Oh, um, forgive as I was saying, my bright, luminouse, shiny, magnificent Diamonds. Allow us to introduce ourselves I am Acha.

Kocha: And I'm Kocha.

Acha and Kocha: And we are at your service.

Blue Diamond: What are these?

Peridot XJ9: This here is Acha and Kocha. Two servant class droids that I made. They take the place of pearls, but they can do more.

Blue and yellow pearl look at each other worried if they would be replaced.

Yellow Diamond: What can they do?

Acha: ( as he taps on his chest) Well what I have here is my personal storage dimension pocket.

Acha opens his chest like a small door and puts his hand it there he pulls out a few balls.

Acha: You see if you need me to hold onto something for you, just store it inside me. I can hold onto anything. Weapons, armor, preciouse items.

Kocha: Even a gem in her physical form if he has to.

Acha: Um, uh lets not go there yet. But anyway I can entertain you if your feeling down.

Acha uses the balls he took out and starts juggling.

Acha: I can even tell jokes, Kocha what do you call a quartz that supports gender equality?

Kocha: I don't know what?

Acha: A geminist.

The Diamonds are shown to be unamused by that lame joke, but pink starts giggling from it thinking it was kinda funny.

Acha: Okay, um, oh here's one its a doozy. What is it called when a bunch of moonstones...

Yellow Diamond: ( sounding annoyed) We've heard enough from you droid.

Acha suddenly stops juggling and drops his balls, now feeling a bit down.

Acha: ( sounding a bit offended) Oh, I get it.

Yellow Diamond: What about you the small one.

Kocha: Well I can act as your second eyes. I can keep a lookout on any danger . I can spy on people for you. I can fly around to make sure no one is slacking off. And I can receive and send messages for you.

Blue Diamond: Well to be honest it sounds like she can be somewhat useful.

Kocha: ( whispers to Acha) See that, they find me to be useful.

Acha:( whispering in sarcastic tone) Yippy for you.

Peridot XJ9: ( as she pulls the two of them away) Well thank you Acha, Kocha, that will be all. Next I wanted to show you the military class droids.

The door opens again and a strang looking figure enters. It appeared to be a gara droid. It's body had a metallic bronze color and had a silver head. It's face had a blank and emotionless expression with black eyes. It carried what appeared to be a small stick with two blades at the end of each side and walked in strange way. It moved around a lot like an ape. It didn't really stand up straight but was more in a squat posisition. It looked around alot in curiosity.

Peridot: Behold, the Gara soldier. Fearless and loyal, they only have one objective, to destroy the enemy. They act as soldiers for our military.

Blue Diamond questions abouts it's strange movements.

Blue Diamond: Why is it acting like that?

Peridot: He's just in battle mode. They are programmed to fight and are very hostile.

The Gara soldier then extends his stick into a spear.

Peridot: Go ahead, test its abilities.

Yellow Diamond: Yes, lets see indeed.

Yellow summons a Topaz gem to fight it.

Yellow Diamond: Destroy that droid.

Topaz: As you command my Diamond ( draws out her weapon, pugil stick).

The two engage in battle. The Topaz swings her pugil stick at the Gara soldier. It ducks and tries jabbing with it's spear. They continuously blocks each others attacks. The Topaz dodges and then hits the Gara soldier. She was about to finish it off, until the droid did something unexpected. It opened up its face revealing the metal endoskeleton fires an eye beam at the Topaz. The Topaz falls to the ground and the crazed droid starts stabbing her repeatedly until she poofed, but that wasn't all. It then took the gem and started smashing it onto the ground until it was shattered. Peridot XJ9 smiles while the Diamonds are somewhat disturbed by it.

Peridot XJ9: So as you can see, they are excellent fighters. They are strong, aggressive and formidable. They don't stop until the enemy is destroyed. Now for my final presentation, there are times where gems get cracked and while there maybe a few gems with healing powers, we may not have them forever. That's why I created this robotic suit.

A couple Gara soldiers bring in a robotic suit. It was a strange looking suit. It stood 6.2 feet tall. It was golden, but half of the body was done, its left side of it's body was missing it's armor, exposing the endoskeloton of the robot. Its right hand looked normal, but the left was limb enhancer hand. Its neck was arched forward. The head had a bizarre look to it. It's eyes were squinted, had almost humanoid face ( no nose though)with a long chin and fixated grin and on its head was a long V shaped crest or crown.

Peridot XJ9: This robotic suit is made for gems that are crack and are close to being shattered. Placing the gem inside it will keep it stabilized, safe and secured. Then that gem will awaken in her new body. A better more stronger body. I haven't tested it yet and it's still a working progress. But I know I can make this work. But wanted to show you these to show you that these droids can make Homeworld even greater.

Blue Diamond: So you want us to give you the approval to mass produce these things.

Peridot XJ9: Yes my Diamond, these Gara Droids are unlike anything you've ever seen before. Think what we can do with them.

Yellow Diamond starts to laugh, at first Peridot XJ9 thinks that she was agreeing with her plans, until she stopped laughing and responded.

Yellow Diamond: Absolutley not.

Peridot XJ9: ( now looking a bit shocked) What, but why my Diamond? These are solutions for if we ever run out of the resourses for our world. These could be the future for Homeworld.

Yellow Diamond: Future? You call placing cracked gems in robotic suits. These are hideous looking suits.

Peridot XJ9: The suits don't have to look this and you saw what the Gara soldier can do.

Blue Diamond: That soldier of yours is no soldier, but a raging, uncontrollable savage. It doesn't even talk it just kills. Our Jaspers, Rubies, Topaz, and Amethysts are more obedient than this thing.

Yellow Diamond: Not to mention, those two droids you call servants are hardly useful nor are they entertaining. Plus they talk too much for servants. Our pearls are more amusing and prettier than them.

Acha and Kocha now look down in shame. Yellow Pearl blushes from the last line Yellow said and takes that as a compliment.

Pink Diamond: Wait, I kinda thought they were amusing.

Yellow Diamond: Enough Pink. That will be all XJ9.

Peridot XJ9: I can't except this.

Yellow Diamond then glares at her for what she just said.

Yellow Diamond: Excuse me? Are you questioning my decision?

Peridot XJ9: I worked hard on this. I really think...

Yellow Diamond: Shut your mouth!

Peridot XJ9 now looks nervous, even Acha and Kocha hid behind her.

Yellow Diamond: You've wasted our time with these pathetic droids of yours! Homeworld has never had problems with resourses and never will. Now get rid of these scrap heaps and move on to your real work!

White Diamond: Now hold on Yellow, don't I get to say anything?

Yellow Diamond: Um, of course White.

Peridot XJ9: Yes White Diamond. Surely you must have something to say about my work.

White Diamond: Well XJ9 I do have to say, this was an enjoyable presentation, but I have to agree, we won't be needing these droids. So why don't you put these silly little toys away and get back to your assigned work.

Peridot XJ9: ( sounding offended) Silly toys? This is most advanced technology being put to good use. This could change everything, you are making a terrible decision.

The other diamonds angered with Peridot XJ9 for talking back to White and then they look back at her. White diamond continues to speak, still in a soft tone.

White Diamond: So you are saying you don't agree with my decision? Do you want me to repeat that? Do I have to force you to stop?

Peridot XJ9:( sounding defeated) No my Diamond.

White Diamond: Good, good. Because I wasn't asking you, I was ordering you. Now why don't we stop now. That will be all.

Peridot XJ9 exits the throne room in anger. Accompanied by Acha, Kocha, and a few Gara soldiers carrying the suit back to her lab.

Acha: Well, that didn't go exactly as we planned.

Kocha: I told you they wouldn't find that stupid quartz joke funny.

Acha: I had other jokes and that moonstone joke would have been great if they let me finished, but never mind what they said my lord. They don't what they're saying.

Kocha: They're blind thinking that we Gara Droids are inferior.

Peridot XJ9: Exactly! How can they say that? Calling my experiments scrap heaps? Those clods don't appreciate for what I am doing for them. I could create the most powerful warriors in the whole galaxy! But they reject it! But they will one day pay.

Acha:( sounding confused) P-pay my lord? You're not thinking of overthrowing the Diamonds are you?

Peridot XJ9: Yes Exactly!

Acha and Kocha now just look at her surprised.

Peridot XJ9: They think they know everything. How to rule, how to decide, how to lead? But they are wrong, I know that. They will regret this and the day will soon come where they will fall. They will be shattered by my own hands and the Gara Droids will be the new superior race.

To be continued...


Author's Note: That's it for this chapter. I wanted to make this because one problem I have with Steven Universe is that the show lacks a central villain and I find the Diamonds be rather weak ones since we don't see them that often. The first two maybe three chapters will be the introduction for our new villain. But we will get to our heroes soon. I do not own Steven Universe. Steven Universe belongs to Rebecca Sugar. Please support the official release. Thank you and please read and review.
