Springtrap got in front of Steven. "Stay here. I'll check it out." Springtrap said, going towards the growling noise, which came from a curtain.

"S-Springtrap..." Steven whispered.

Springtrap made it to the curtain, and slowly opened it, the monster jumping on him. It was a corrupted gem, and it was attacking Springtrap.

"We gotta help him!" Steven rushed in, summoning his shield and throwing it at the corrupted gem.

the corrupted gem was smacked off by the shield, and Springtrap quickly got up. Steven went in front of Springtrap, holding his shield in the defensive state.

"Steven..." Springtrap began.

"I'll protect you, Springtrap! Just get outta here!" Steven said, preparing for the corrupted gem.

The corrupted gem lunged for Steven, and he got ready. The gem went to hit Steven's shield, but Springtrap punched it back. Steven was surprised by Springtrap's power.

"You defend, I'll punch!" Springtrap said.

"R-right!" Steven began moving forward.

Steven shot a glance at Garnet, who was watching them, not doing anything. She must be judging Springtrap! Steven thought. He looked as the corrupted gem went for Steven again, but Springtrap punched it, and it spoofed. Steven was surprised. How did Springtrap do that? Steven asked himself. He then lowered his shield, and bubbled the gem. He then sent it back to the temple.

"Good work Steven and Springtrap." Garnet said, coming up to them.

"Huh?" Steven was confused.

"You worked together, and Springtrap proved himself that he isn't that bad." Garnet chuckled a bit.

"W-what?" Springtrap was confused too.

"You, Springtrap, can be on our team." Garnet said.

"Sweet!" Springtrap smiled.

"No problem." Garnet smiled back.

"Yay! Springtrap's our new teammate!" Steven cheered.

Garnet and Springtrap both laughed.
