//------------------------------// // Together Forever // Story: Equestria Ninja Gems // by Mister V //------------------------------// Together Forever The next day Karai, Spike, and Connie in the arena. Connie and Karai were working on their swordsmanship while Spike was watching from the distance. Soon they were finished with the practice and sat down with Spike to relax. "So Connie, you and Steven seem to work great together." Spike said. "Yeah you could say that." Connie said blushing a little. "One could even say you two are more then partners." Karai said with a grin. "Uh yeah, Steven and I have kinda been hanging out since we were kids." Connie said. "So you two are sort of a couple?" Spike asked. "Hehe, you could say that." Connie said. "Have you two ever went on a date yet?" Karai asked. "Um, well I wouldn't exactly call it a date, more like a mission of sorts." Connie said scratching her head, as if to tell them something. Just then Dusk Quartz called them on their communicator. "Everyone, another tower was found. Sending you the coordinates." He said. "Come on, i'll tell you all about it when we get there." Connie said. Soon they arrive at the tower and knew what to do first. The Kraang Droids didn't stand a chance against our heroes. Soon our heroes were standing in front of the tower. Dusk Qwartz is upset to learn that two more fusions were added to the security list. Garnet reassures him with a smile. "Don't trouble yourself, we still have three more fusions to call." Garnet said before turning to Pinkie Pie. "Pinkie, the stereo players please." "Okie Dokie Lokie." Pinkie Pie said pulling out the stereo players. Connie Pulls out two more cassettes, one entitled 'Collaboration', and the other entitled 'Alone Together' makes her blush a little. "Alright you two, you know what to do." Garnet said to Steven and Connie. Everyone was confused, and Sunset was the most confused of all. "Uh, Connie, what's Garnet talking about?" She asked Connie. "You'll see." Connie said as she and Steven begin to dance. Steven twirls Connie. Steven laughs gently and does a little jig. Connie has her own dance solo as well. Steven and Connie run around, carefree. They bump into each other; Steven starts to fall, but Connie catches him. They both pause for a beat, blushing. Steven smiles. Connie giggles and rests her forehead on his, they both blush and lean closer. Steven's gem begins to glow and to the surprise of everyone, the two fuse into a woman who is taller than Amethyst and Pearl but are a few inches shorter than Garnet. They have an average/athletic build consisting of Connie Maheswaran's slim figure with Steven Universe's chubby and stocky features, curly black hair that reaches to their thighs and a complexion slightly darker than Steven's. This is Stevonnie the fusion of Steven and Connie. Everyone stare at Stevonnie with surprised looks on their faces, while Stevonnie smiles confidently. "Pretty cool, right?" Stevonnie asked with a smile. "He fused? With his friend Connie?" Rarity asked in bewilderment. "It surprised us at the time too." Pearl said. "They really make a good team." Garnet said. "Ok were next." Amethyst as Stevonnie plays 'Collaboration'. Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl dance and fuse, forming Alexandrite, who recieved a new design of her own. Her visor is now tri-pronged and golden, reseblming Garnet's half-star visor from her current form. The three lenses around Pearl's gem also turned golden. They were also shuffled around a bit, with the lense below Pearl's gem moving to be above it. Alexandrite also bears teal line across her chest that dips down into a "V" in the middle, once again referencing Garnet's tri-color chest design from her current form. The top part of her chest and shoulder pads switched from a light teal to a dark fuchsia-purple. The bottom part of her chest stayed the same dark teal color, and the bottom of her shoulder pads switched to match. Her shoulder pads also have a bit of fabric - of the same color as the bottom of the shoulder pads - wrapped around her upper set of arms, resembleing Pearl's jacket from her current form. Her mid-section was split into a dual color, like Garnet's, with the same dark fuchsia-purple as the upper chest on the left half, and a slightly darker shade of purple in the right half. Her legging remained the same color as before, however, they now only reach just below her knees, and no longer have the star cutouts. She also now bears proper footwear, now with boots - similar in color to the gloves on her third set of arms - that don't quite reach the edge of her leggings. Her skin, hair, and gloves remained the same color. She also bears Garnet's wedding rings. "Hey Alexandrite, hows the weather up there?" Mikey asked. Alexandrite answered with a thumbs up and a smile. The two fusions soon enter the tower ready to destroy the tower. They enter the main power core room and right away Alexandrite rips open a hole in the hull so that Stevonnie and slice the power core. The two make it out just as the entire place blows up. they unfuse to the cheers of the rest of our heroes. Sunset soon sees a leaf land on her hand, before it turned into a key pieces. She then sees a bone come up from the ground before jumping to her other hand and turn in to the very last key piece. "That's the last key pieces, but i will wait until later to unlock it, the Gems need me now." She said to her self. "So you and Steven and fuse?" Spike asked Connie. "Yeah, it surprised us to at the time." Connie said with a smile. "Well there's on only one tower left." Dusk Quartz said, "So we'll need to work hard to find it." "OK, but for now lets have lunch at The Crab Shack first to celebrate." Garnet said with a smile, this made Dusk Quartz feel that he should relax for a bit. So he agreed and they all went off to have lunch.
