## History

Turquoise initially served Homeworld…

Turquoise was initially part of a squad with four other members, one being part of the Crystal Gems towards the end of the war but is now deceased.

She was asked to transport resources with her squad to a tower a bismuth was building. She accidentally dropped the minerals she was transporting, and heard a bird singing.

Soon, other gems had judged her for her liking of "music" and her constant habit of tapping things, which links to her ability to summon her weapon, a launchpad. She isolated herself from her own group and was bullied constantly, which she was able to defend herself from. When Rose Quartz formed the Crystal Gems, she joined and tried to convinced one of the members of her squad to join, who refused, fearing her consequences of being caught.

When the beta kindergarten was just formed, Turquoise and Rose Water Opal, sneaked into the kindergarten. They discovered an overcooked Red Jasper and a Colour-Change Sapphire awaiting destruction and cornered by a bunch of Amethysts. They fought with them against the other Amethysts.

After fighting, she and the rebellion were victorious. Then she saw a light in the sky. It was the Diamonds, furious from the shattering of Pink Diamond. She saw Rose Quartz’s shield shielding herself, a Garnet, and a Pearl. Turquoise formed a dome-like shape around roughly 60 gems made out of solid ground, supporting the weak cover with her telekinetic powers. A beam of light broke through the cover and struck a Sphene and a Pyrope through it. The dome wasn’t strong enough. Turquoise slowly awaited her demise and the light to consume her and her new friends.

She heard the light come down, but she lived. Nervously, she let down the temporary dome when she discovered another Turquoise, the same Turquoise she tried to convince to join her in the war. She tried to go up to her to thank her but she was shattered by a Corrupted Opal before she could move. She noticed the gems that weren't in her dome was turned into monsters. She saw Rose Quartz, Pearl and Garnet in the view and tried to meet her but Aqua Sapphire grabbed her hand and warned her that bad things would happen if any of the gems that she saved met them. The group of around 60 gems saved were soon known as the Hidden Crystal Gems.
