Yeah, she did nothing wrong and Lapis used Malachite to trap Jasper but she did it to protect Steven (watch Chille Tid).

She thinks Jasper will hurt him. And I like to think of it as Lapis returning her favor to Steven because he fixed her gem. It also proves Lapis can do anything to protect Steven even if she has to risk her life or she knows that it will hurt her (according to what Garnet said in Chille Tid, staying fused as an unstable fusion can hurt the fusers).

Okay, let's get back to Malachite, yeah but now Malachite is locked up and can do nothing except watch marine life swim by and go back their daily business.

But Malachite won't destroy Jasper. It's been confirmed by Matt Burnett on Twitter that she'll get character development and that she'll be a more complicated character than we expected. https://mobile.twitter.com/mcburnett/status/641849634105782272

Also, I did a whole discussion on Tumblr about Malachite's return, the possible promo Barn Mates promo, the Lapis/Peridot interaction, and where could Jasper possibly be. Here it is! http://grabbergirl.tumblr.com/post/137462246550/possible-barn-mates-promo-malachite-return
