Meanwhile, The Guardians were still traveling in the portal, until another portal opens beside, them the FIFA World Cup Mascots appear. The mascots are started by their appearance. Zabivaka explains that he and the other FIFA World Cup mascots found in their MascotVerse portal, but overheard that the Aurora Rings had recruited them to support the Olympic and Paralympic mascots. Vinicius realized that the Olympic and Paralympic mascots must have their own MascotVerse, which explains how the FIFA World Cup mascots ended up in their portal. Eventually, the portal leads them to Beach City, where the Crystal Gems live. The mascots were surprised that they were teaming up with the Crystal Gems. They went and introduced themselves. The next day, as The Guardians and The Crystal Gems are getting to know each other better, Aliz and Pearl partook in a sword fight, Adelene, Colin and others sang songs and Tom and Amethyst have a bike race. Vinicius and Steven were flying through Beach City and Vinicius showed off a few flying tricks. Steven noticed that the Beach City Funland was on fire. Vinicius looked at the fire and noticed a familiar figure standing in the blaze. It was Flamuna! Vinicius was angry at Flamuna because she survived the events of the previous film. Flamuna introduces Steven and Vinicius to the other goddesses. Vinicius and Steven fought the goddesses, when out of nowhere, Infinmenti shot an arrow at one of Vinicius's legs. Steven then heals Vinicius, and they decided to head back to the beach to warn the others.

Vinicius and Steven told the others that Flamuana had returned, and everyone but the Crystal Gems and FIFA World Cup mascots were in shock. Vinicius told the other who Flamuna was.
