Chapter Seven: Forced Fusion
Turquoise and Amethyst went out on the beach to play with Steven. Malachite was training with Garnet. The other Gems went out for dinner. Suddenly Steven went to go get Pearl, who hated "mush flowing through her body and coming out the other end", which was why she didn't go to dinner.
"Look at the sand castle we made!" Steven exclaimed. "We made it look like the Temple!"
"Yes, Steven, that is very impressive indeed," Pearl replied to him. She noticed Amethyst examining her new black and gray outfit. "Amethyst, we still have to go get that Slinker."
"Tomorrow." was the reply from the purple Gem.
Turquoise went inside to get some rest in her room now that the new Crystal Gems had them when suddenly the Warp Pad activated. Altaite, Tourmaline, Tiger's Eye and Onyx were back from dinner, looking stuffed.
"Man, that buffet was good", Onyx said, half-expecting a question from Turquoise. Something like "Oh, what did you have?" but nothing came from her. Instead she just sighed and went into her room. The others shrugged and went out to play with Steven.
And the Warp Pad activated…again. But it wasn't a friendly Gem. It was the leader of the previous intruders. She caught Turquoise by the hand and lifted her, like Jasper to Lapis. The fear in Turquoise's eyes was too much to bear.
Pink Diamond.
Queen of the Diamond Empire.
Her pink eyes could very easily stare into your soul. Her skin was lighter than Garnet's. Her beautiful silvery white hair was betraying. She was not as gentle as she seemed.
She ruled Homeworld with the other Diamonds. But she was the strongest.
What happened next was something that Turquoise hadn't expected.
Pink Diamond forced her to fuse with her.
Turquoise yelled to Malachite before their bodies glowed.
Malachite's elf-ish ears pricked up when he heard Turquoise yell his name. She was in trouble and there was a bright pink light emanating from the Temple.
The dance ended as soon as he went inside.
Staring him right in the face was a horrifying Gem.
Tanzanite.
Her hair was silver and a very dark purple. She had four eyes, four arms and was the size of two elephants. She was powerful enough to kill a sleeping child with a tap of her pinkie finger.
And she went on the Warp Pad.
"Say bye to your precious friend,"she hissed before Malachite could hit Pink Diamond's gem, on her left shoulder. If he did hit, he'd regret it anyways. He'd never hurt Turquoise.
The Warp Pad activated.
And Malachite had a feeling he'd not see Turquoise for a while.
A long while.
