Dinner aboard the Neith

[Jeremy Hunter]

Izzy smiles and hugs Erik back, her smile back.

"Thanks to Jeremy, Ellie, and Seth."

Jeremy smiled, this one the real smile that had been missing for so long.

Ellie walked over and hugged Erik. "If you hadnt found the Arkania in New York, we wouldnt have been watching. Now Arkania can be,left alone."

The last one, Seth, gave a half smile. "Im going back to the Ghost Eye. Im not mucg of a party-goer." And with that he was gone.

Jeremy lead Izzy into the party, happyness threatening to give him a heart attack.

"Everyone! We rescued her! We got Izzy back!"

Jeremy's voice carried, his happiness seeming to last as Jeremy lead Izzy to Rika, who got up with a cry and hugged her.

Jeremy looked at Michal and Morrigan. "Thanks for your support through this. Erik, who else helped? Oh, abd its Poker time!"

Jeremy's happiness was contagious.

May you ever walk in the Light, Shizune.
