Andromeda stood back, as Sombra slowly put the sword away from her face. The guardian of Neptune watched the predicament, a bit disappointed.

"Sombra, I thought we went over this. You cannot threaten new guardians with swords, even if they aren't like anyone you've ever seen."

Sombra rolled her eyes. "Tch, how do we know this guardian won't just enslave everyone like the last one, Onyx?"

Andromeda was also understandingly disappointed, but she wasn't surprised. She was aware of her father's tyranny, as he left a bad reputation for blackhole guardians.
Onyx then went up to Andromeda and patted her on the head, much to Andromeda's delight, but Sombra's disgust.

"I am terribly sorry for Sombra's behavior, don't let her words get to you. I know you're different from the past blackhole guardians."

Andromeda smiled from Onyx's advice, glancing over to look at Sombra, who had a glare that even Medusa wouldn't handle.

"I'm going to go check on my blackhole now.." Andromeda said nervously as she flew off before Onyx or Sombra could speak.

Onyx sighed and turned towards Sombra, causing her glare to calm down.

"I do not understand what's so hard about trusting new guardians for you. We were all new at some point, even you."

Sombra scoffed and went back over to watch over Venus. With a disappointed sigh, Onyx flew over to Mercury, noticing that Dawn and Nori were talking. Onyx hid behind a cluster of rocks, taking a small peek as to what they were speaking about.

"How do we know she isn't like her dad, Nori?"

Nori sighed, crossing her arms."You saw how her father was when he was here. Even when he first emerged, he already had brought great chaos. Andromeda has yet to do so."

Onyx then flew over, much to Nori and Dawn's surprise."I take it that Dawn is also skeptical of Andromeda.."Nori nodded while Dawn looked away.

"Look, I'm not like Sombra. I'm actually willing to give her an opportunity to prove she isn't like that. I can't help but ask questions, though."

Nori glanced over her shoulder and saw that Sombra was more tense than usual."Speaking of Sombra, I assume she and Andromeda have already met, considering how bothered she looks."

Onyx nodded, with both her and Nori looking mutually disappointed, while Dawn looked confused.

All of a sudden, Hyperion came over and pleaded to the trio, to their surprise."Onyx, Nori, Dawn, we need help. Andromeda's abilities are coming to life but they are unstable."

"Already?"
