There's something different about this next world. He can tell by the way his magic reacts to it. It's almost like it's... eager.
He doesn't dare hope.
He opens a door, in the middle of nowhere, and Crystal flies through before him. What he sees on the other side is—
Surplus volunteers. That's... oddly charming.
And then they're ready to go.
Surplus is what you get when you asked from a pool of loved ones and altruism-inclined individuals.
They have a shuttle specifically modified for the mission. They launch. Their speed is only limited by their ability to navigate through the stars.
They arrive.
Well. Navigate through the void of space, with stars in the distance, it's not like they're close enough to one another for that to matter.
They arrive unnoticed.
And their hostages are now extremely healthy and Sparkles is extremely fast and doesn't even need magic to generate light because he is light.
Hostages are rescued! Most still trying to figure out what was going on and why their injuries are healed.
"Isra—my Isra, are you—" She frets around him after he's been placed on a bed, not daring to touch him but not daring to be farther than one foot away.
Isra blinks because of the sudden light. He is shocked when he notices Sadde, but clings to her. His tail regrew, the cut off part is a lighter shade than the rest. But it works and clings to Sadde as well.
Well, Sparkles will get to see a lot of variations of the questions, "What happened? How did you do this?" which Isra is currently asking Sadde.
"Sshhh we'll explain later, now you need to—focus on recovery—but you're safe, my Isra, my Isra—"
With no casualties and leaving the Federation absolutely confused on what happened. That is what they can call a good day.
(Fenris does not suppress vengeful thoughts, mostly because his version of revenge is "make everything so much better that they are going to be ashamed of their past.")
