I was originally doubting this theory at first, but when I saw the "Why aren't the Crystal Gems corrupted?" then it all made sense.

Maybe the monster fight because the previous Gems minds were corrupted turning them into monsters, and of course when you're a monster you want to fight and kill others.

And, another idea. In the last episode of Season 1 (or the second last), the Crystal Gems get caught in jail (or in some sort of "help-me!" trouble), and Steven pairs up with another creature. What if the CG gets jailed/in trouble from the monsters who they tortured?

But still, solid theory. Would love to see this happen!
