Gems vs. Elements

Trista brings her friend Aventurine to the world of Steven Universe, to meet with the Crystal Gems Steven Universe, Pearl, Amethyst, Garnet, Connie Maheswaran, Peridot, Lapis Lazuli, and Bismuth. Though Bismuth recognizes Aventurine as the general of the strongest army at Homeworld's disposal during the Gem War, as she experimented on a new type of Quartz called the Aventurescence Force, which were 20x stronger and impervious to damage. But these Quartzes vanished mysteriously at the middle of the war. Aventurine explains that she aimed to create a new gem stronger than the Diamonds to be at their command called Wurtzite, but they declined out of fear it would be turned against them. But just as Aventurine attempted to deploy Wurtzite anyway, it was stolen. But later that day, Wurtzite turns up again under the loyalty of a race the Gems have never heard from in eons: The Elements. Just like the Gems, the Elements were sentient matter derived from elements of the periodic table that could manipulate matter by their elements and even created the Gems before they rebelled into their own race. With the Homeworld Gems accepting individuality, and without their ideals of perfection holding them back, the Elements were free to invade the Gems and their stolen colonies. The Element Authority, the Elements' 118 oligarchic leaders, challenge the Diamonds, including Steven, to decide the fate of Gems, something which Steven is absolutely not ready for, especially since he is supposed to be the head of the war because of the actions of his mother, Rose Quartz/Pink Diamond. Not willing to take up this big a challenge since the events of the Steven Universe Movie where Earth was almost exterminated, Steven turns to Aventurine for help to maximize the Crystal Gems' defenses and stop a war that could be far more destructive while Trista brings in the Lodgers and Star's group. But the Lodgers end up stumbling upon the secret that both races being creations of the Matter Councilors, Outer Gods that regulate matter in dimensions, and thus both races have no reason to fight since they're all just matter, and all are one. But when the truth is revealed, not all of the Element Authority are swayed and continue on with the war. Now the heroes must stop this war once and for all.
