"Ready for Earth again?" Joseph asked as Gabe stood at the portal with Elly beside him. "Gonna take some adjusting, especially with your Little Spark there."

Gabe chuckled ruffling his daughter's hair. "I think we can make it work. I'm ready to get my life back together again… And this one wants to see the world. Just hope it's ready for Ms. Elly here."

Joseph chuckled. "It'll be quite the adventure… and don't be afraid to visit from time to time. The portal is open… and well Esanii is on its way to repair as you saw."

He nodded. "You know I will. Gotta make sure you're still kicking. Don't be a stranger either alright?"

Joseph smiled. "I'll be sure make visits to Resurgam, and if you need any help with Elly just email me. Data Hybrid structures can be tricky."

Gabe smiled. "Would appreciate it. And I figure you'd want updates on her since as far as we know she's one of the youngest hybrids."

"Yep and I got three of them so I know some things." Joseph patted Elly's head. "Be good for your father, alright?"

Elly nodded. "I will."

"I'll keep her out of mischief." Gabe promised. "She's in good hands." Although… Knowing Lucas and Vincent it won't be me getting her into trouble… It'll be me getting her OUT of it.

"Well I best not keep you."

Gabe nodded, leading his daughter onto the platform.

"Ready?"

Elly nodded.

"Ready."


"Alright three… two…. one!"

The digitizer hummed as it shot a laser out, forming Gabe and Elly in the center of the room, both holding close to each other.

Gabe opened his eyes looking around. "We made it… Back to the real world…"

Elly opened her eyes as well, wincing at how bright everything was.

"Whoa… so bright…"

"It can be." Said a voice as Vincent and the others walked up, Vincent offering her a pair of sunglasses. "Should've seen what fearless was like first time he came out of the box."

Ethan rolled his eyes. "Cut me a break, Esanii isn't lit like Earth."

Elly put them, on relaxing. "That's better…"

"You walked into a wall man. You lost rights to living that down." Lucas smirked.

Riza couldn't take it and hugged Elly. "LET ME HUG YOU! Eeee! Welcome to Earth!"

Elly smiled sheepishly. "Guess you did take me home after all."

She giggled. "Guess so. Which means girl time~"

"Once she's had some time to adjust Riza… No dragging her all over Portland just yet." Gabe laughed.

"But we can start with a sleep over." Alyssa said in a sing song tone. "Get her educated."

"Besides you trust these faces right?"

The girls all gave Gabe the puppy dog look.

"Hrk! Guys! Cut it out!"

"Well she's gotta stay somewhere for the night." Marley giggled. "Alyssa's mom is awesome for making arrangements."

"She really is." Gabe sighed in relief. "Just glad everyone's willing to help…"

"Yeah but you make a comment about her cooking I can't promise you not being made to sleep in the garage." Lucas snickered.

"Considering my own skills… Yeah. I can't call the kettle black."

"I'll be sure it's Dad cooking tonight." Alyssa looked to Elly. "She deserves to know what real food tastes like."

Elly tilted her head. "... If you say so."

"We need to get some chocolate into this girl." Riza said hugging her again. "She needs to know the greatest thing to girl kind."

"Well come on, the whole team is waiting back at Resurgam to greet you both." Joshua waved from the door heading out.

Everyone started filing out… Ethan and Feliciana being the last two along with Gabe.

"You coming?" he asked.

Ethan shook his head, holding Feliciana's hand. "I have a promise to keep with Felly here…"

Feliciana smiled. "Got our own business to take care of."

Gabe gave them a knowing look. Ah young love… "Alright… Take care… And Ethan introduce 'er to your folks." He smirked before heading out.

Ethan chuckled. "Will do."


"AND HE RETURNS!" Maria shouted as Gabe came into the conference room.

"The man of the hour." Naomi smirked but she was happy. "Good to see you again."

"Yeah and without all the armor." Gabe grinned. "Good to be back…" He looked behind him. "C'mon.. Don't be shy now…"

Elly came into the room, hands behind her back as she looked to all the doctors, giving a small wave.

"Hello…"

"And the little warrior." Hank chuckled. "Eyes aren't taking the light well huh?"

"Hence the shades." Elly smiled sheepishly. "Hope I'm not stuck wearing these all the time."

"It takes time." Erhuard replied recalling when he had been first brought out of prison to work at Resurgam. "Your eyes will adjust in time. You just need to take it easy on them."

"Okay…"

Tomoe smiled walking over to her, presenting a box.

"We got you something as a welcome present. It was Maria's idea."

Maria grinned proudly. "Hey, girl deserves a proper present for crossing worlds."

Elly took the box, opening it, finding a hoodie decorated with TRON lines.

"Well? Try it on!" Maria encouraged. "Hope it's the right size."

"You guys are gonna spoil her." Gabe chuckled. "And here I thought Maria was tough as nails."

"I'll punch you later for that one Gabe."

Tomoe giggled. Oh he's in for a shock later… But that being said, that is for later.

Elly slipped on the jacket. The sleeves were a little long, but she didn't seem to mind. She giggled, slipping the hood on.

"I like it."

"Kyaa!" Alyssa squealed. "She looks so cute!"

"Super cute!" Riza agreed. "... Oh I can't take it! MORE HUGS FOR ELLY!"

"Oh no-"

Before Elly knew it she was surrounded by the girls, all hugging her.

"We will love you and we will teach you all awesome things!" Marley laughed.

"Darn right! You're part of the cousins now." Alyssa giggled.

"Which means she ain't immune!" Lucas called from where he stood. "She's learning from me and Vin!"

Elly blinked. "Huh…?"

Gabe shook his head. "All in good time Elly…"

"Alright stop hogging her, my turn!"

The girls parted as Joshua brought Elly into his arms. "My sis."

Elly giggled, hugging him back. "Bro!"

Joshua ruffled her hair. "Cute."

Gabe smiled watching. Everything is alright now… Back home… Safe and sound…

Elly looked to her father, extending an arm to him.

"Don't leave me hanging."

Gabe chuckled walking over, bringing his arms around his children.

"Never."

Gonna be a long road ahead of us… but nothing has stopped us before… And we'll make it.

As long as we're together.

The End
