Adora was really angry.
She grabbed Finn from the ear and said that they were in trouble.
"And this time Catra is not going to let you get away with it! Cupid, you should come too, your parents are worried" said Adora.
Hordette sneezed again from under the table were she was hiding with Emily.
Adora heared it and belived it was Cupid.
"Bless you. Are you cold, dear?" She asked to him, while pulling Finn's ear.
The boy nudded and faked a sneeze.
When the two teens finally reunited with their parents, they went back to Bright Moon.
Glimmer teleported them all, plus two unexpected passengers.
The adults haven't noticed them because they were covered by Cupid's cape.
Glimmer felt strangely weakened after she teleported them.
"I don't understand. I thought I could teleported six people and big cat" she said to Bow, who was holding her as she recovered from the effort.
"Maybe you are just tired. We're going to bed now, so you can rest" he said to his wife.
While the adults weren't watching them, Finn, Cupid and the passengers that Glimmer didn't know about, sneaked away.
"Finn!" Called them Adora.
"Let them be, Adora. You're so annoying with them" Said Catra.
"Oh! I'm annoying!? Catra, we both know that if two teens keep disappearing like that it's because they are doing something they shouldn't!".
"Wow! I think you've worried too much for one evening. You should take a break" Catra adviced her.
"You know what? You're right! I'm going to bed, but you're going to check out our kid" said Adora.
"What!? I-!" .
Adora pointed in the direction of Finn's bedroom. Catra made a long sigh.
"Fine!" She said.

Finn and Cupid brought Hordette and Emily to Finn's bedroom.
They all took a sigh of relief when they closed the door.
Then Hordette sneezed again.
"Really? Do you want us to get caught!?" Cupid reproved her.
Hordette said that it wasn't her fault, that it was probably the pollen stucked on her clothes or on her hair.
She tried to get the pollen off her and when she turned around, Cupid and Finn saw a little girl, clinging on her long hair.
Cupid screamed. Hordette did it too when she saw that baby girl: she thought it was a huge bug because she had a scorpion's tail.
Hordette was freakin out. She begged her sister to get the bug off her.
Finn was trying to help her too. In all that chaos the only one who was having fun was Rose Bud.
Finn hold her and said:
"This isn't a bug! It's a baby!".
"Why did you had a baby attached to your hai!? And who's baby is this!?" Cupid asked with a shortness of breath. "We took someone's baby!".
Rose Bud was laughing at him for the faces he was making.
From her happiness, flowers bloomed on her head.
Hordette came closer to Rose Bud.
"Fascinating! It seems this baby has the ability to make plants grow. That's why I was feeling sick!" She said.
Rose Bud squeezed her cheecks with her tiny hands
"Puwple big giwl!" She laughed.
Suddenly, someone knocked at the door.
Cupid took Rose Bud from Finn and gived her to Hordette. They hid with Emily under the bed.
Finn openned the door, it was just Catra.
"Hey, Finn. Sorry for bothering. . . Your mom is haunting me. She said that I had to check out if you're ok. Are you ok. . .?" Awkwardly asked Catra.
"Y-yes, mom. Tonally fine!" Said Finn, trying to look cool.
"Great! Because if you need anything, you know you can count on me! I'll help you with anything. I'll support you. I'll. . ." Catra stopped to talk when she smelled something in that room: it was a familiar smell.
She made her way into the room and she was getting close to the bed.
Cupid was biting his cape for the fear.
Catra saw something on the floor, that was coming out from under the bed. It was Hordette's hair, but Catra didn't know it.
"Since when do you have this blanket?" She was about to touch it, when a guard stormed into the room.
"Catra! The queen required your presence in the meeting room! It's an emergency!".
Catra quickly went out of the room.
Finn closed the door again.
"CATRA!? Your mom is CATRA!?" Hordette came out from under the bed and she throw herself on Finn, while Rose Bud was just hanging on her hair.
"Yeah" Said Finn.
"Why?"
"Huh?"
"Why are you helping me?! Don't you know that my father and your mom hated each other?!" Asked Hordette.
"And what's the problem? We aren't our parents" Finn said.
Hordette was amazed by that answer and by the way Finn said it, so convinced, so honest.
What their parents had done, didn't change what they thought about her. Finn liked her.
Cupid was the one who was still feeling weird about her.
