Peridot spent long days working on the drill. Never taking a break as much as taking a moment to breathe. Even for a gem this causes stress and signs of irritability. Not even amethyst could stand to be around her anymore. This was exactly why Steven decided to teach Peridot how to sleep.
"Steven! I told you gems don't need to sleep! We have to work on the drill before . . ." Steven silenced her by putting his hand over her mouth.
"Don't worry, we are weeks ahead scedual besides no one can keep working forever. If you do you'll crack."
"What do you mean? Gems only break under physical force."
"Just shut up and lay down"
"Fine, but as soon as this is over I am going right back to the drill"
Peridot laid down on the floor as stiff as a board.
"Am I done now?"
"Close, just relax and close your eyes and think of nothing."
Peridot closed her eyes and tried relaxing, as soon as she let her self relax fatigue finely hit her and she fell asleep in a blink of an eye.
Peridot found her self standing in a black void. "Is this . . . Dreaming?" She soon found that she couldn't move at all. "Well this is a waste of my time. How do I get out of here?" Then a vision appered before her. It was the memory of of her and Steven at the Galaxy warp. She snorted to herself remembering how stupid her idea was. How could Steven possibly fix Gem tecnology when his powers were obviously meant for combat healing? Everything happened as it did before, Steven tried his all and Peridot broke down in despiration. But this time the Crystal Gems didn't come to save him, It was just her and Steven. He was trying his best to consol her trying to fix her broken spirit like a cracked gem. Then Peridot was something she would never have imagined. She saw herself grab Steven by his neck and lift him up till she was standing and he was dangeling in front of her. Then she readdied a blast charge with the other hand pointing it right at Steven's face. Peridot wanted to scream and call out to get dream form but she found out that she had no voice, no way to stop what was unfolding before her. It all happened in an instant, as soon as the charge left her prosteic arm Steven's head seemed to disappeare. Dream Peridot was holding nothing but a lifeless corpse witch she tossed over the side in to the sea. She looked up and said to get self "If I die on this God forsaken rock, then I will punish those who stranded me here."
Peridot woke up screaming. The other Crystal Gems stared at her worried that she might have been hurt or something. Peridot quickly hugged Steven and started crying. She kept saying to get self over and over agian "I have changed, I have changed, I have changed . . ."'
