After 4 years of war with Homeworld the Second Gem War comes to an end, so Steven and the Crystal Gems disband to start new lives. A decade later an adult Connie is helped by an old ally to bring home Steven and the gems to fix their broken family. 1st story written in the "Original Storyline" Universe, 3rd in chronological order.

"The Kindergarten was a horrible place. Many gems were created there, and many gems destroyed. One changed, And another tried to change... But freedom isn't for all of us. And some of us can't change... Well, at least that's what they told me. But that Steven kid... Heh, if he's willing to give me another chance, I'll take it." (Not too good at summaries. Rating due to paranoia.)

There were five gems. Jade, Tigers-Eye, Rose Gold, Opal, and Tourmaline. All five were jetted down to Earth for an experiment involving the Cluster and the Kindergarden. But they got separated on the way. Some how, all five are found by the Crystal Gems, and now, all five are being hunted down by home-world.
