Author's Note: Yay! New story! I LOVE Steven Universe so I'm really excited for this one. This is going to focus mostly on Peridot I think. There may be some Lapidot in later on. So this was an idea I actually originally had for my roleplay. I roleplay Peridot and Yellow Diamond so… Yeah. It doesn't look like this was going to happen in the roleplay so I thought 'Why don't I take this awesome idea, change it a little, and turn it into a fanfiction!' I hope you guys are as excited as me!

Chapter 1:

Peridot sat on a large rock on the edge on a small clearing in the middle of a forest. She scowled while staring down at the screen of her control pad. "Stupid planet. Why did I have to get stuck here of all places!" She muttered while drawing lines and symbols on the floating screen. Peridot was stuck on Earth. She had no way to get back to Homeworld.

Peridot had barely managed to complete her mission. Those 'Crystal Clods' had found her and nearly captured her just after she had gathered all the information she had needed. She managed to fly away, but they would probably find her soon. She needed to find a way of this planet as soon as possible.

Peridot began one of her daily reports. "This is Peridot, updating status." She said. She had said those same words hundreds of times before. "I am no closer to finding a way off of this miserable planet. I have still not found Jasper or Lapis. I-" She stopped suddenly when she heard a nearby bush rustle.

The screen of Peridot's control pad disappeared and her fingers floated back to her hand. She stared at the spot where she had heard the rustling sound come from. After watching the bush for a few moment she lifted her arm so she could create her control pad and continue with her report.

Just as her fingers were about to float into the air a long black whip shoot out of the bush and wrapped around her body.

"Hey!" Peridot yelled. She looked down at the whip and tried struggle out of it.

A purple gem jumped out of the bush. "I got her!" The gem, who Peridot believed was the Amethyst, yelled.

Peridot scowled and lifted one of her fingers to shock the whip just like she had done last time. She was too distracted with the whip to notice that a white and light blue spear was flying through the air toward her back. Just as Peridot was about to touch the whip the spear landed squarely in her upper back.

Peridot's finger missed the whip and she tumbled forward off the rock onto the ground. Pain from the fall and the spear stuck in her back shot through her body. She began to writhe in pain, trying to escape the whip. She felt a foot pressing against her back, holding her down as the spear was yanked out of her back, causing even more pain.

"Just give up Peridot." Said the gem standing on her back. Peridot believed it was the Pearl. "You can't win."

Peridot lifted her head of the ground just enough to speak. "N... No. Never!" She yelled.

Peridot felt the spear being stabbed into her back again, this time a little lower. "Ah!" She cried out in pain, trying not to retreat into her gem. 'Don't retreat. Don't retreat! You have to fight!' She thought.

The spear was pulled out of Peridot's back again. Barely a second passed before the spear was lodged in her back for the third time. "Ah!" Peridot cried out again.

Peridot retreated into her gem in a puff of smoke. The light green gemstone fell on the ground.

Garnet walked up to Peridot's gem and bubbled it. She looked down at the green gemstone through the dark pink bubble. "She has a lot of explaining to do..."

Authors Note: How was that for my first time writing ANY type of combat? I feel awesome! Hopefully I'm doing a good job keeping everyone in character. Please leave a review! I hope you guys enjoyed! Bye! -Pinkpoole
