"I'm feeling a little tired, but better."

"I know. I'm just giving your IV something to deal with that rash on your stomach."

"Thanks, but what time can I go home?"

"Right now, you're tired. So, you can go home in the morning. In the meantime, I'll move you to an open room after your friends have left except for Penny who has agreed to stay with you."

"Ok. Thank you."

"No problem."

Ellie drifted off to sleep and Dr. Anderson left her to sleep. Arnold held Sarah close and they were waiting for Sam, Bronwyn, Penny, and Elvis to come back. Sarah started to move and Arnold felt her move. He began to wonder what was taking Bronwyn so long. Just as he was thinking about what would happen next, Bronwyn came back with some drinks for the firefighters and Sarah except for Ellie. She passed some tea to Penny, Sam, Elvis, and Arnold while they were waiting for the vehicles to be fixed. Sarah had a bottle of water that Bronwyn bought from the cafe. Arnold looked around and saw Bronwyn join him. "She fell asleep with you?" Bronwyn asked

"Apparently, yes."

"Oh, look at her. She's had a long day after what happened earlier. We're still waiting for Sam to finish working on Jupiter and Hydrus."

"I know. I sure hope this doesn't take long."

Arnold and Bronwyn were with Sarah when they saw Sam, Penny, and Elvis return to the building. They were finished re-fitting the batteries to Jupiter and Hydrus. Sam went over to Bronwyn and Arnold who were with a sleeping Sarah. He looked down to them. "Right, I think Jupiter and Hydrus would start now. Arnold, I'll see you at the station." He said

"See you later, Sam."

Arnold left on Hydrus and the engine works perfectly. Hydrus was fully functional and drove off back to Pontypandy Fire Station. Sam turned to Bronwyn. "How's Sarah?" Sam asked

"She fell asleep while I went to get us drinks."

"Oh, look at that."

"I think it's time we got home."

"Come on, I'll drive you home, Bronwyn."

"Thanks, Sam."

Sam, Bronwyn, and Sarah left the hospital to find Jupiter. He started the engine after they all climbed in, then they drove off back to Pontypandy. He looked worried about Ellie, but he had to get his family home. Charlie and James were still at the cafe. It was very dark in Pontypandy and Newtown. As soon as they reached Pontypandy, he got a call from the fire station. Station Officer Steele needed to tell him something. "Yes, sir?" He asked.

"Sam, I just got word that Ellie hasn't been cleared yet."

"I know, sir. It took us a whole hour to fix the batteries. Penny had to help us."

"Alright, Sam. Will you be heading to the fire station, soon?"

"Yes, sir. I'll be there to set up our plan as soon as Penny and Ellie return with Venus."

"Excellent, Sam. Elvis has been waiting to get back at him with all of us after what he did to the team and the other children."

"I understand, sir."

"Well, I'll see you later then."

"Ok, sir. Understood. See you later."

Sam ended his call with Station Officer Steele and approached the Wholefish Cafe. Charlie was waiting for Bronwyn and Sarah when Jupiter pulled up. Bronwyn opened the door and Sarah held on to her while Charlie got the door. "Thanks for bringing us to Newtown, Sam."
