Update: 9/28/2016-Deleted the original Chapter 9: Regeneration, since SU writer Matt Burnett said (Over a year ago, but I'm lazy) that Steven would die if he was badly hurt, not poof and being able to regenerate. So naturally, Steven's children wouldn't be able to regenerate either, so I deleted that chapter and updated THIS chapter (Though I'm too lazy to update all the chapter numbers from this chapter on). So, we'll just say right before this chapter, Turquoise just decided to give herself curls because she loves her dad's own curls.
I'd bet you all were excited when you saw this story was updated, but it's really just a deletion of a chapter. Sorry guys. ;(
Well, you'll forgive me soon anyways. You'll forgive me... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Evergreen Valley Elementary School Lunchroom
It was lunchtime at Evergreen Valley Elementary School, and on one of the tables sat Turquoise Universe,eating her lunch. Soon, Turquoise was met by her two brothers, Amazonite and Aquamarine.
"Hey sis." said Amazonite.
"Hey you two." said Turquoise.
"I like your new hairdo." said Amazonite, admiring Turquoise's now bushier hair, with curls in the back.
"Thanks Amazonite, that means a lot." said Turquoise.
Suddenly, the ground around them shook, causing some student's lunch plates and milk cartons to fall onto the floor.
"What's going on?" said Amazonite.
"I don't know." said Turquoise.
Suddenly, the fire alarm went off. Everyone started lining up, some panicking though.
"Is there a fire?" said Amazonite.
"It can't be, unless the rumbling is causing the fire." said Turquoise.
The three kids then got into the line of students, who then started stepping outside.
"What's going on? Does anyone know?" said Turquoise.
"No idea," said a student in front of Turquoise, "all we know is that something's going on on the other side of the school."
The line then stopped. The three kids turned in the direction of the trouble, what they saw horrified them.
On the other side of the school was a giant creature, standing thirty feet tall. It looked just like a carnivorous two legged dinosaur. It had spikes running down from the back of its head to its tail, sharp teeth and claws, spikes on its arm joints, and a white gemstone on its forehead.
"It's a dinosaur!" said Aquamarine.
"It looks like it has a gemstone on its forehead." said Turquoise, "It must be a corrupted Gem."
"Where are the Gems?" said Amazonite, "Shouldn't they be handling this?"
"They're not here yet." said Turquoise.
"Then we've got to deal with that dinosaur ourselves!" said Amazonite.
"No!" said Turquoise, "We're too young, we're not ready yet, we don't have full control of our powers."
"But we've gotta help those people!" said Amazonite.
"We should just wait for the Gems." said Turquoise.
But then, the Gem Dino started charging in the direction of their line.
"That dinosaur's coming for us!" said one student, "We're doomed!"
"Ok, I guess we'll have to use our weapons now." said Turquoise.
Turquoise then summoned her sword, Amazonite summoned his shield, and Aquamarine summoned his axe, but was hard to carry.
"Gems, let's do this!" said Turquoise.
Turquoise and Amazonite then charged, while Aquamarine tried to carry his axe.
"Kids, what are you doing?!" said a teacher.
Turquoise slashed at the Gem Dino's left leg, while Amazonite beat the Gem Dino's other leg with his shield, while also blocking the Dino's attacks.
"We'll buy the Gems some time for them to get here!" said Turquoise.
Aquamarine tried to pick up his axe. Aquamarine put in all his strength and picked up his axe. He then spun around with the axe. He let go of it, the axe flying up. The axe then hit the Gem Dino's neck.
The Gem Dino reeled in pain. The axe now fell and dug itself into the dirt. Aquamarine ran back over to his axe and tried to pry it from the dirt.
"Come on Aquamarine, hurry!" said Amazonite.
Just then, the Gems appeared, including Steven.
"Kids!" said Steven.
"Hey dad!" said Turquoise, "This Gem Dino is attacking the school, we bought you some time though."
"Thanks kids, we'll handle it from here." said Steven.
"Hey, where's mom, shouldn't she be with you?" said Amazonite.
"You kids know she has a job, she can't be with us on all our missions." said Steven.
"Gems, let's go!" said Garnet.
The Gems then jumped up onto the Dino, while Peridot stayed on the ground, shooting her finger lasers at the Gem Dino. The Gem Dino was overwhelmed by the Gems' attacks. After a few seconds of overwhelming attacks, the Gem Dino fell down onto the ground. The Gem Dino was then engulfed in smoke. All that was there now was the dino's white gemstone. Steven quickly ran over to the gemstone and bubbled it, then he transported it back to the temple. Steven turned around to the kids.
"Thanks for buying us some time." said Steven.
"No problem dad." said Turquoise.
Suddenly behind them ran the principal.
"Were you the kids who attacked that dinosaur?" said the principal.
"Uh, yes." said Turquoise.
"Well then," said the principal, "usually, you three kids would be in trouble for having weapons on school grounds-"
"Ugh, not this again." said Steven.
"Now now, let me finish," said the principal, "usually, you'd be in trouble, but since you saved us from that dinosaur, I've decided to lift the Zero Tolerance Policy!"
"That's much better." said Steven.
"Thanks Mr. Principal." said Turquoise.
"Now, I'm gonna see if we can get the State's Board of Education to cover the damages to the school." said the principal.
