Back at the temple, Red Flare and Blue Sky bonded well with Steven and the rest of the gems. Especially, Flare and Amethyst. As soon as the two started talking to each other, neither of them separated from each other. Blue Sky seemed to fare well with Pearl, both being women of organization. Steven got along with both Flare and Sky, but still wanted a chance to meet Rouge to.
"When is Rouge supposed to return?" Steven asked
Sky Jewel sighed and said "Who knows. She's gone for long periods of time every now and then."
"I think her longest time out was three days straight." Red Flare added on "Rouge can be a real mystery at times."
"She always has her reasons though." Blue Sky replied "We never question her about what she does."
"So, what do you three do, exactly?" Pearl asked
"We hunt and slay creatures of shadows." Red Flare responded
"They try and destroy humankind and steal light from the world." Blue Sky added "It's our job to keep them at bay and work as a pack to stop them in their tracks."
"Why haven't we ever known about this before?" Amethyst asked
"They like to avoid being seen or known about." Blue Sky told her "They're sneaky that way and you really have to be intelligent in order to find them."
"Maybe all should work together to stop this evil." Steven suggested
"We should." Red Flare agreed
"We would need the approval of Rouge first though." Blue Sky reminded then "After all she is the lead pegasister."
"Garnet will have to approve as well." Pearl added on
Right then, they all heard what sounded like strong whistling winds. The pegasisters knew what it was. Rouge and Garnet had now returned and walked in.
"That was quick." Red Flare spoke up
"It was just business, not a mission." Rouge replied
"I needed to see if you three would be friends or just get in the way." Garnet added "And Rouge is interesting one and I actually like her."
"And we already get along with these two as well." Amethyst responded and looked to Red Flare "Especially her."
"We want to know something else too." Steven spoke up
Rouge looked over him "What do you need to know?"
"If our teams will become one?" Steven wondered "To be one big team and work together."
"Rouge and I were talking about that and were thinking the same thing." Garnet told him
"And we agree to become one." Rouge added on
"Alright!" Red Flare exclaimed, excited to be with them
"I can see we're going to like you guys!" Amethyst exclaimed and hugged Red Flare
Pearl and Blue Sky looked at each other and gave each other a friendly smile. Garnet and Rouge nodded to each other and smiled lightly as well. Shortly though, the three pegasisters suddenly got alert. Danger was shortly going to be upon them. However, they didn't know what it was and were going to find out soon enough.
