The Young Wolf sighed softly under her breath from her place sitting at the cockpit of her jump ship.

She doesn't think she'll be using it that frequently, this new ship the Traveler had gifted to her after synchronizing those nodes of light and dark but for now it would get the job done.

It would take her home.

Everyone was in their ships, the fleet stationed just before the portal as they all got ready to make the jump. Right now, they were simply waiting on confirmation from the commander that everyone was all set before flying straight in.

She was at the front of the group of ships, leading the charge back home with Cabal, Eliksni, Awoken and other guardian ships hovering behind her.

Her fireteam were beside her, in a V-formation but if she looked to the right she would see an empty spot where Nol—

She shook her head, curls bouncing with the movement and pushed down the tears.

Not right now, she could cry when she was alone, or with Mara.

Probably the latter since she knew her fiancée would corner her and make sure she didn't bottle everything up.

She had no idea how she got that lucky in the lover department, no idea what she did to deserve such a caring and attentive woman looking out for her, protecting her.

You wouldn't be finding her complaining though.

Along with the entire Coalition, at the very back of the fleet there were two pyramid ships that were currently holding every single warrior the Witness had tried to use against them.

The ones that had bowed and pledged their allegiance to her...

When she had woken up that morning, she had been shocked at the sight of a Weaver standing at the foot of their bed, making her shriek and wake up her lover in the process.

She had explained to the beast in full, that under no circumstances were any of them to EVER enter her private chambers unless stated otherwise. She had made the warrior tell every single Solider to pass the word because she would not be waking up every morning to a creepy little Psion staring at her.

After Mara and her had gotten dressed though, she had gone to the monolith herself, much to Mara's chagrin and called out to the armies that laid in wait for her command.

She had ordered them all to get on the two pyramid ships, Taken, Scorn Dread, and Shadow Legion alike to follow them through the portal.

When they re-entered Sol, she told them to fly straight for Neptune, but approach the far side of the planet where there was no trace of life.

She had informed Nimbus of her decision and after explaining to him her plan, he was all on board.

She had an idea about what to do with her new army, but for that she needed lots and lots of space that was uninhabited.

But she also wanted to keep it a secret from her friends and family, a surprise if you will.

When she had got back to the tower, she told them that the army would follow behind them and fly off to Neptune for the time being, which is where they would be stationed.

She made an excuse about wanting to see if they could get the Shadow legion on Neptune to join her new ranks, seeing as how she had killed the Witness and all.

Which wasn't a complete lie, she DID want to do that, in hopes that they would stop terrorizing the citizens of Neptune but that wasn't the main reason she chose that planet.
