Narrator: No one who was in this cave could believe his eyes: Zak Storm had struck Calabrass' blade on Bones' hook!
He jumped back a little by the collision and Zak landed protectively in fron of his sister. "No!! How is that possible at all!? Skullivar had sealed the ice with his powers even more!".
Then Sora got up and went over to her brother. "I had concentrated the powers that Skullivar had given me at that time in the blade of Calabrass to defeat you. But then you knocked him out of my hand while he was still using Blazz's eye. The fire had melted the ice and my powers have broken the magic ".
Bones growled angrily and the siblings stood ready to fight. Sora took a step towards him, then Zak summoned Aeria's eye and threw the gold head against the rock face with a cyclone. He grimaced.
"Retreat!!".
Then he and the other skeletons left the cave. Cece, Caramba and Crogar came running up to the siblings.
[Play music | Not forced]
"ZAK!!!" the three shouted and Zak smiled a little. "Hey guys..." he said and Calabrass turned his head once. "Nice to see you again, boy".
Sora looked at her brother in silence. Tears rolled down her face. "S-Sora? Are you okay?" She looked up and smiled. "Yes ... I'm...", she fell into Zak's arms and cried. "I'M ONLY SO HAPPYLY STRAIGHT !!! AFTER TWO YEARS !!! I'VE....WE...WE'VE FINALLY FOUND YOU !!!!!".
He put his hand around her, but now the others couldn't stop their tears and there was a group hug.
"7 C's has Captain Zak again!" Came Crogar and then released the others from his strong hug. "Yes...". Suddenly Zak yawned something.
"Sleeping Beauty is still a little tired," Calabrass said. "Hey... I also have to get used to being out of this stiffness... How long was I frozen in the ice?".
"Two years..." it came from Cece.
"TWO YEARS!?!!!!!". Sora grinned a little and punched her big brother lightly on the upper arm. "So ... Happy 15th and 16th birthday, brotherheart". Zak and the others started to laugh. "Thank you... let's just leave this place here now..."
The group did so and they returned to the entrance of the cave, climbing the rope out of the volcano onto the chaos, where the others expected them.
"What happened down there! Why did Bones get out of there earlier and- ZAK !!!!!". Clovis literally flew into the arms of the 16-year-old where the two fell to the ground. "Clovis". "Zak Storm!" "Gamble? Zephyra? Calico? What are you doing here?" Sora scratched the back of her head. "Um... I'll explain it to you..."
~~~
After the short story, Zak's eyes widened. "A replacement team because the 7 C's were separated? And you only helped to save me and go to revolutionize Skullivar?" Calico nodded and the boy smiled.
"Thanks guys". "Don't thank us, but your sister. After all, we only got so far thanks to her," Zephyra said, placing a hand on Soras shoulder.
"What I...". "Without your courage, Skullivar wouldn't have bought the one trick. Without you, the replacement team wouldn't have come about and Cece, Crogar and Zak would still be in captivity. You are the real hero here, Sora!"
The 13-year-old looked into the faces of her friends and her brother. Then she closed her eyes briefly and smiled. "Yes. Even if Skullivar called me his Commander and I almost broke down... I never gave up." She looked at Zak. "And I didn't want to break your promise."
Clovis flew around her. "Skullivar had called you Commander, you got something with a 'C'!" Everyone stared at her and Zak understood. "Yes! Sora... you are now one of the 7 C's. Better said, we are now the 8 C's!". "This is illogical! Seven seas, seven eyes...". "Calabrass!". "I got it!"
Everyone started to laugh and had bright faces.
"Skullivar can be prepared! The best pirate crew from the Bermuda Triangle is reunited!"

"You disappointed me, Bones! Zak Storm will again be a threat to us!" I was silent. "Despite this relapse, we have to stick to the plan. Get this crystal before the Storm siblings get wind of it. Victory is within reach!" I looked up at my master.
"Yes, my Lord. I will find the realm crystal immediately!" ___________________________________________
