Shattered (Steven Universe)

Moss Agate was surrounded. A quintet of topaz soldiers had crushed her squad and cornered her, the situation was hopeless as much as she tried to fight it. The huge gems stepped towards her, brandishing their axes. She felt her hope, her conviction, falter, despair and cold certainty taking over.

She- she gave up. She was alone, separated, and the war raged on, oblivious to her plight. She thought of her friends, most of them were in her group so they must haveā€¦ she felt sick at the thought.

She would die free, just as her friends did. She felt a bit of comfort in the thought. She braced for impact and-

She didn't die. Instead, she was thrust into darkness, the same familiar void of senses as when she poofed, and for a moment she calmed. And then, she broke.

Pieces of her, memories, personality, a sense of being, were separated, cracked, and violated. Coherent thought broke down, giving way to confusion and wrongness. She tried to reform, to make sense of it, but it was in vain. A sense of utter loneliness took her, writhing, trapped.

And so it layed there, on the dirt, forgotten.

Micro fiction. I read this and it made me think aboit how being shattered isnt really death. We see this in the cluster, clusterlings, and how Steven and Yellow Diamond can reconstruct them. Sorry if it's a downer, I was planning a happier ending where Yellow Diamond finds her and fixes her, but I got lazy
