The plane made its way to New York in no time, as the trio of adventurers figured out the best way to attempt a rescue mission from a hypersonic jet. Well, to be honest Kei did most of the figuring, but 'Vok didn't think she would mind if he took some of the credit in future retellings of the story.
Given the accoutrement of the buildingâs exterior, it didnât take long to track down Four Freedoms Plaza. Located in the heart of Manhattan, it stood as a testament to everything that one family could accomplish together. It also stood for the saccharine sweet sort of super heroics that made âVok generally sick to his stomach. And if that didnât do it, Chandiâs flying would. She seemed to take joy in attempting to make âVok loose what little he had managed to scarf down before leaving Twilight Cove. Looking at Kei with a sort of âyeah yeah, I know youâre smartâ sort of grin, âVok leaned forward and pushed the Cloak and Hover button that the surfer girl had discovered. Immediately the engines cut back, slowing their approach to a near crawl. Slowly the engines groaned to a complete halt as the auxiliary thrusters kicked in and gently held the plane motionless in the air.
As the craft went about its maneuvers of its own accord, âVok went to the back of the plane and cracked the hatch. Looking out he saw the top of the Four Freedoms Plaza, although he noticed that they were a considerable distance from the roof itself. Looking back up toward the pilotâs seat, he laughed and said, âHey, I guess me needs a little practice on me approaches. Itâs not quite as easy as it was on the Starjammer, you know.â Oops. Up until then âVok had been very careful not to mention anything from his past. But he was getting decidedly more comfortable around his teammates, and things were bound to slip out. Doing his best to cover, he quickly continued, âDo either of ya see any sign of De out there? And for thaâ matter, do ya think heâll be able to make thaâ jump?"
