The members of squad A and B now reunited as the Team were spread throughout the jet. Some looked defeated, heads hanging down huddled up in a miserable pile, others were holding in frustration, scowling and pacing back and forth. The team’s effort at a covert mission hadn’t gone as planned. Thanks to the stern leadership of Rain and Talon the team’s involvement in Kobra’s business could not be traced back to the League. 

They managed to find the information the league required, but it remained to be seen what could be salvaged from Alisa’s memory. Would it be enough? The hidden supply of Kobra venom the team discovered was another loose end. They decided against trying to destroy the venom. The container Metamorph managed to retrieve would be more important than they would realize at this time. 

The jet served as their momentary refuge. It would take some time for Kobra to regroup, figure out what happened and formulate a plan of action. Brightheart´s brave distraction bought the team some precious spare minutes to catch their breath, share their thoughts and talk about what happened, before either Cybergirl, Rain or Talon would fly them back home. 

Daphne sat in one of the seats with her knees drawn up to her chest. Viktor carried her all the way to the jet, running to escape Kobra´s agents. He´d wrapped her in a bunch of blankets without saying anything, that same stoic slightly annoyed expression on his face. She was still trapped by her powers and was somehow also unable to create her own warmth. What little heat Viktor had left her with she trapped inside the blankets. 

She briefly wondered if this is what every plant went through during winter. Her limbs were stiff, her head foggy and she was so tired, like she hadn't slept for days. The exhaustion settled on her chest, feeling incredibly heavy. Daphne lowered her head to her knees and closed her eyes.
