here it is, Chapter 10.

Sorry it took awhile but I was experiencing writers block with this chapter and focused on my other side works until I got the inspiration to complete this.

This chapter is a fight scene between Onyx and you've guessed it, The Crystal gems.

Many of you have long awaited for this chapter and I hope that I have made it to your expectations.

Without further ado I give you.

A Crystal Rising Ch 10

"Oh Clod." Paradot whispered as she shakes in fear in her spot at the site of the rebels.

Oynx knew of only one course of action to take at this moment, with their only source of communication on the line, Oynx gave the command "Paradot Get the machine and get out of here!" all hell broke loose as the Crystal gems descended down to the ground.

"But-" Paradot tried to speak before she flinched in fear at his frightening glare

"Just DO IT!" Onyx shouted out as he manifested his weapon and charged at the approaching the gems. Paradot didn't waste any time in activating the Warp pad, the large pad lit up in a pilliar of light taking Paradot and the Makeshift satellite tower to wherever they went to.

Garnet was the first one to meet Onyx as they Clashed against eachother, Her Steel like Gauntlets locking with his blade in a cross position, the one half of the blade grinded against the large gauntlets creating sparks before Onyx disengaged to avoid being speared.

He slashed the incoming whip in half but it regenerated when it snapped back into Amathyst's hands.

"Onyx! In the name of earth Surrender or be shattered!" Garnet shouted to him as Pearl, Jewel and Amathyst stood beside her with their weapons beared at him. Pearl with her spear, Amathyst with her Whip and Jewel the Taller Pearl didn't have the usual weapons of her kind, she bared a shining sliver like sword that seemed to light up even in the dark canyon which bore no light.

Onyx didn't reply to her threat, he spun his double bladed weapon before it stopped as he held it with one hand with one side of it facing backwards with it's back end residing on his elbow, he made a *come at me motion* with his other hand "So be it."

Jewel was the first to charge at Onyx with his sword held in a thrusting position, she was quickly followed by Pearl her mother, Jewel thrusted her sword only for it be parried away. She would've been cut by his weapon but he had to block her mother's dive strike that would've impaled him, he backhanded pearl away before he punched away a few yards because of garnets fist.

He skidied on his feet before coming to a stop, a whip wrapped around his off hand "Hah! Gotcha!" Amthyst proclaimed in triumph… but her moment was short lived as she was unprepared for the strength he super solider possessed, she was pulled off her feet and swung directly into pearl who charging at onyx.

The Two gems slammed into eachother and into the canyon wall.

Onyx was about to go after them only to find that his feet refused to move, looking down he saw his legs binded to the ground by some form of metal wrapping that wrapped around his legs like metal bandages, they protruded up from the ground and coiled around his legs like a serpent yet the ground looked up rooted as something travelled through the ground to him.

Following the trail with his eye's he saw the tall Pearl that had tended to him was the cause of his inmovable state, she had impaled her shining sword into the ground.

No matter how much he struggled to pull his legs out of the strangling hold the binding have on him he couldn't escape, not even slicing them did the trick even with his weapon which only scratched the flexible metal like fabric before more wrapped around that area.

The fusion was coming at him at an alerming distanced, he needed to get free and the only way to do that was the get the gem responsible and end her but unfortunately she was well out of his reach.

He knew he couldn't reach her from here but that didn't mean that she was out of range, he tossed his weapon up and caught it in a throwing position before hurling at the tall gem. Jewel was forced to pull her sword out from the ground in order to block the speeding the projectile, Jewel was knocked off balance by the surprising force behind the thrown weapon. But back with Onyx the second Jewels sword left the ground the binding around his legs disappeared just in time to dodge Garnet's fist to his face, he reared his own fist back and punched the fusion in her face forcing her head to the side.

Garnet slammed her right gauntlet into his abdomen, he retaliated with two low blows to her solar plexus (Stomach) causing to kneel over for a quick second to uppercut him into the air where Amethyst's whip wrapped around his form and slammed him hard into the ground right in front of the rock where a certain little boy was hiding behind.

Onyx got up, his expression was contorted in a irritated glare as he pats the dirt off his form, Garnet and the rest of the gems regrouped.

His weapon formed once again in his hands, he prepared to for their attack when from behind him he heard pebbles hitting the ground, looking back he saw the anger and hate filling site of his old enemy reduced into a disgusting form that fuelled his contempt even more. The Little boy was paralysed with fear as he stares at the imposing foe standing in front of him, even the crystal gems were paralysed by the site of their leader's child standing right behind the most dangerous gem.

In flash before anyone knew it, Onyx had grabbed Steven and was holding him hostage.

"Steven!" Everyone called out in sheer horror, afraid to move as Onyx held the frightened half gem in his arm.

He shifted his weapon until the blade was directly pointed towards his gem which was exposed by his short shirt that riled up to show it in place of his belly button "Move and I shatter her again!" Garnet clenched her armoured gauntlets so tight that you could hear them being crushed. Onyx growled in the terrified boy's ear "your coming with me."

Garnet couldn't let Steven be taken away from them by the very person who previously shattered his mother "Let him go Onyx! Your outnumbered!" all of the crystal gems bared their weapons at him.

Onyx tightened his grip around steven "you are in no position to bargain Abomination." He spat out at the fusion as he walks to the warp pad, not turning his back on them as he steps onto it where it activated upon his presence "You follow, and she die's."

The crystal gems could nothing but scream in dismay as a beam of light swallowed the pair "STEVEN!" they screamed into the empty spot on the warp pad.

-with paradot-

At same time in an unknown location, a little green being stood next to a satellite dish like object, The little being paced back and forth mumbling as it's floating fingers tapped on the holographic screen.

"Clodding bits of granite." the technician gem cursed as she tried to get the device she made to work, the machine hummed as it came to life, the multiple power cells within glowed with power and the crytal antenna at the top of the dish brightened, however despite it being on she was still unable to get a signal through as all that was coming through on the screen was static noise.

"Come on!" she sighed out, putting commands into the pad until she got a new screen over her console, she pressed on one of the symbols before speaking directly to the holographic screen. "This is Paradot Facet 2F5L Cut 5XG broadcasting on an open channel. my crew and I are stranded on the dirt planet designated Earth, we were sent to survey the planet by order of her greatness, Yellow Diamond. our ship was destroyed by the Remnant of the rebels known as the crystal gems, if any gem can hear this please send help." she set the message to loop so that any ship entering the dish's range will pick it up.

A few hours had passed since she sent the message out and during that time Paradot did anything she could to pass the time, analysing the local fauna and flora, taking reading from the dirt and rocks, any sound that reached her ears caused her to flinch in that direction in fear of what could be out there. But soon her patience started to thin out, she had catalogued and analysed the plant life and rocks as many times as she could before lost all self control "Where is that Granite for Brains stone headed Clod?".

"Right Here." The dull commanding voice made her freeze from fear and embarrassment, her head slowly turned to look at the imposing red gem standing right behind her.

In a flash Paradot spun around and saluted the taller gem all the while trying not to shake with fear "Red Onyx! Sir."

Onyx narrowed his eye's at the small technician who stood before him shaking in her salute "I'll ignore that comment you made." that made her dropped her salute and relax a bit as he walks around her to their machine, focusing intently on it "How's the signal to homeworld coming along?".

"I've managed to active the device but the range can only go so far from his current position not to mention the surround terrain makes it's difficult to get a signal through." she explained as they sat within a densely populated forest within a the range of several mountains.

"Then we'll move it to a higher vantage point where it can broadcast without any problems." he said before turning to her and handing her a pudgy object half her size that was wrapped in vines "Here, make sure that IT doesn't escape."

when she looked down on the object within her limbs she froze in realisation at the familiar sight of black haired little creature with the fear inducing gem protruding from his round abdomen "Is-is that!?" she stuttered, holding the unconscious boy away from her in fear of what it might do after it caused their current predicament.

"Yes. as long as we have it, those rebels will keep their distance." He clarified as they now had the leader of the rebels within their grasp, a leverage they couldn't afford to lose. "Do. Not. Let it out of your site." he firmly stated/ commanded to the shaking gem.

"yes sir"

"Where is the nearby tallest mountain?"

"according to the reading I took early prior to your arrival. the tallest formation of rocks is due east 3 mile's that way." she pointed with her free prostatic limb while the other dangled the unconscious Steven with her floating fingers.

"I'll carry the machine, you take care of the Rose Quartz, she is not to be harmed." he commanded digging his hands underneath the large and lifting it up with ease, holding it above him without a struggle. he walked in the direction of where Paradot pointed, with the green gem following behind carrying her own burden or rather dragging the unconscious half gem.

-Beach city Crystal gems home-

In the small yet populated town of Beach city, in a large sea home connecting to a cliff just on the coast of the city, a large older man sat on one of the stools, awaiting the return of his son and his former wife's colleges.

The Hexagonal pad at the end of the home lit up and out from the pillar of light stood four woman but no small boy, The large man ran to them eager to hear their latest adventure but noticed the absence of one important individual "Where Steven?" he asked looking around them to see any hair sign of his little boy but the defeated and sad looks on the woman told him of what happened but he dreaded to hear it.

Pearl stepped out from the circle of defeat, placing her arm gently on the human man's shoulder in comforting manner "Greg. you may want to sit down."

Finished!

I hope you liked it.
