Okay guys I know its been a while since I worked on this so sorry for the wait. I needed to plan out future plots so I took a break. Anyway lets get to the story!

I waved and Peridot yelped shutting off her screen and scooting as far as she could in the floating pink sphere that was currently imprisoning her. I stared into her eyes to see utter fear in them, then I realized that she was there for the whole fight with Jasper. "Are you okay?" I asked out of sympathy. "I-I'm fine" she stuttered shaking. "you don't sound fine" I replied calling her bluff. She started to shake even more "listen..." I said trying to figure out what to say. "I know you watched that fight with me and Jasper but you can calm down, I'm not here to hurt you" I said trying to put on my most friendliest face. She slowly started to calm down "o-okay" she said breathing slowly. I waited a few minutes before I spoke again "Calm?" I asked with a friendly smile. She nodded still looking a bit nervous, but who wouldn't be? "Would it be fine if I asked you some questions?" I asked trying to sound friendly. She nodded again "I guess..." she answered looking at me if I had some ulterior motive. "I'm gonna guess that you guys were here to reactivate kindergarten?" she nodded slowly "And then you were going to destroy the earth in order to make more gems?" again she nodded. "Why do you need to make more gems?" I asked out of curiosity. "I don't know why. I only do what I'm told by Yellow-Diamond. I don't have a choice on what I have to do nor do I ask questions why." she said curling into a ball with guilt written all over her face. I stood up looked at her for a moment and studied her. To my astonishment she blushed and looked away which made me laugh a little. "What?" she asked looking a bit embarrassed. "Nothing... nothing at all" I said grinning a bit. I poked the bubble and it popped "Wah?!" she said just before I caught her. "What are you doing?!" she shouted at me in a mixture of anger and some embarrassment along with a bit of confusion. I sat her down in the chair that I was previously sitting in "I just thought it was a bit cramped in there" I said chuckling at her reaction. "And I have no reason to think you'd try to get home, because we both know exactly what yellow diamond does to gems who come back from failed missions." She flinched at the memory "And even Jasper, abandoned me. " she said putting her arms around her legs with that face of pure numbness returning from before. We sat in silence once more until she broke it "She was right you know." she said on the edge of crying. "About what?" I asked. "about me not being important enough to live. They're way more more advanced versions of me out there. It was only a matter of time before I was... decommissioned. I grabbed her hand " No that's not true." I said pulling her up from the chair. "What do mean?" she asked standing up. "you can't think like that, because there aren't any more versions of you. You are unique in every way, because you are you no one else is." I explained. I looked into her eyes and saw some hope return. "Anyway you don't need to worry about going home you can stay here with us" I decided. "didn't I just try to destroy this planet? Why would you let me stay with you?" she asked in amazement. "Because I made a promise" I answered calmly. "But just so you know it wont be easy in the beginning. The gems wont trust you right away but given time they'll eventually warm up to you" I explained. "B-but but" she blurted out before I put my finger on her lips " shh the decision has been made, its too late now" I said grinning a bit. But what I didn't notice is that her face was turning from a neon green to a dark forest green until she feinted in my arms "nice one Obsidian" I said shaking my head.

I carried Peridot out of the room and out of the temple door. Everyone was waiting around for my return however they're faces soon turned from happiness to a more cynical look. I walked over and layed her in the couch and let her rest, I turned around to see everyone was still staring at me "what?" I asked loudly. "What do you mean? What?" Pearl said with her hands on her hips. "you just put one of the gems that just tried to destroy the earth by activating kindergarten on our couch!" she shouted. Then Garnet stepped in-front of Pearl and cut her off. "Was it a success?" she asked calmly. I looked back down at the now sleeping Peridot "to an extent. Her path to redemption will be tough and with many hardships. But I don't think we'll have to worry about her anymore and besides, she's a softie behind that hard exterior." I said looking back up at the others. "does that mean she'll be staying here with us?" Steven asked with stars in his eyes. "That's not up to me buddy" I said lowering my self to his level and ruffling his hair. He then looked at Garnet with the same face "can she? Please?" he said staring into her eyes. Her lips quivered a bit until she turned away "fine" she stated calmly. "But Garnet! Shes an enemy-" Garnet put her hand in-front of Pearls face "we'll have to keep a close eye on her then" Garnet said to her looking over her shoulder. "fine" Pearl finally said looking a bit angry. I turned to Lapis who was sitting behind everyone on one of the bar stools "what about you Lapis?" she looked up at me "I don't know". "Lapis I know you don't like her but you have to give her a chance. You and I both know what would happen if she were to go back" I tried to explain to her. Just like Peridot she flinched at the thought. "Before we do anything we need to figure out where they're going to stay" I said scratching my chin. "Lapis could stay in Pearl's room" Steven offered. "It has lots of water for her" he finished. "Good idea Steven! I hope you don't mind Pearl." I said looking at her with a pleading smile. "Well I don't see why not. But only if she minds her own business" she answered. "Does that sound agreeable Lapis?" I asked. "Seems okay with me." she said with a shrug. "Alright, now where can she stay?" I asked pointing at Peridot. "not in my room" Amethyst blurted "she'll mess up my room by cleaning it." she said crossing her arms. I looked at Garnet "no, she might mess with all the bubbled gems we have stored" she explained. "Well I guess she'll have to stay out here in the house with me and Steven." I concluded. I clapped my hands together "well enough chit chat, I got to get dinner ready." I put my hand on Lapis's shoulder which made her blush a bit "Lapis would you mind helping me?" I asked. She nodded instantly and a smile broke on her face "yes please!"
