The ship unevenly turned and thrashed about in space, Bow at the helm of the captain's chair while Glimmer stood beside him.

Numerous alarms were displayed on the screen in front of him as the ship rumbled.

Entrapta would rush through the doors with her tracker pad in hand as she ran to the console.

"Okay, I patched the shielding on the aft starboard ancillary booster. Try it now!"

...

"I have no idea what that is..." Bow mildly panicked as he tried to check the star maps, the alarms still blaring in the background.

...

"I'm working on getting the autopilot up and functional again," She knelt under the console to check the wiring and panels.

"Wrong Hordak, blowtorch!"

Wrong Hordak would walk up, activating the blowtorch. This took Glimmer off guard of course as he approached Entrapta and handed her the tool.

Glimmer looked to Bow, who wasn't fazed by Wrong Hordak's presence all too much. He tried to explain himself.

"What? We couldn't just leave him behind. And he's harmless. You know, since I, you know... fried him and scrambled his brain..."

...

The door to the control room whizzed open, Adora walking in with Nova in tow. She still had that fresh scratch on her face, as it had only been about a day since what unfolded in Prime's flagship.

Glimmer gasped, delighted to see that Nova was awake and okay.

"Nova! You're awake!"

Before Nova could answer, Glimmer ran at her and hugged her. Nova winced, the pain in her side still strong from the fight.

...

"Glimmer..." Nova strained out while the princess embraced her, "Side. Still hurting."

"Ah! Sorry, sorry!" Glimmer stepped back, giving Nova a chance to breathe. The wolf breathed out while reassuring her.

"It's okay."

...

...

"How's Catra?" She looked between Nova and Adora.

"She's alright. She's been asleep for some time now, but I'll leave her alone. Out of everyone, she needs that rest the most," Nova scratched the back of her head, glancing towards the side.

"Come on, guys. We faced Horde Prime and made it out alive," Glimmer cheered.

"I honestly cannot believe it worked," Bow would reply as Glimmer held that smile.

...

"Plus, She-Ra's baaaack!" She hugged the blonde.

She-Ra...?

...

Nova's ears fluttered, surprised.

Wait, she was gone...? When?

...

"How did you do that without the sword?"

"I don't know. I just suddenly felt her again," Adora grabbed at her wrist, hopeful, "Like... she'd never left."

"Like she's been in there all along just waiting to come out."
