“SWOOOOOOOOOOOOOSHHHH!”
“HYDRA! WE'LL TAKE OVER FROM HERE! YOU AND ELVIRA CAN JUMP NOW!”
Hydra and Elvira looked up and saw Pluggo, Silver, Splatter, and Grunt flying like real super-heroes. Without wasting any more time and wondering how dogs could fly, Hydra held Elvira and they both bailed out of the capsule. They jumped to a soft patch close to the track and rolled to safety.
The capsule was still dragging Fireeba, and for a moment Billow was already right behind her and was ready to free Fireeba. But in the next instant, a strange gust of wind sucked him out of the scene and he disappeared completely to the atmosphere.
“SWOOOOOOOSSSSHHHHHH!”
There was a loud clink as the guys ripped up the tracks and plotted a new course for the capsule—directly towards the volcano. Since the tracks would not reach all the way to the volcano, the troop lifted the tracks high up in the air and slug the capsule into the mouth of the volcano, like slinging a rock with a slingshot.
“5, 4, 3, 2, 1… KA-BLAAAAAAAAAMMMMM!”

“HAPPY NEW YEAR! Everyone was screaming, cheering, hugging and shaking hands. The year 3000 had arrived and the people of Guerlin City didn’t have a clue how close they came to being wiped out. But if they all looked to the east, where Mt. Caldera sits, they would have seen a large explosion and a brightly colored sky. Perhaps they would have thought that the old volcano was getting ready to erupt again. But it was Fireeba's deadly capsule that blew up harmlessly inside the mouth of the volcano.
Hydra was relieved to see that everyone was safe. The whole gang was cheering, shaking hands and exchanging high-fives. It was the happiest time of their lives.
It turned out that Veeda and Maya had followed them to see if they could help. And it was they who had created a super vacuum by flapping their super wings—sucking Billow out of the scene. Hydra heaped a lot of praise on both of them. He knew that Billow could have made things much worse if he had been allowed to free Fireeba.
To make things even better, the only members of the gang that were 'executed' by the Fyros were the Sola copies left in their bunks. In addition, the Fyros failed to execute Pluggo’s group since they were just, again, Solas or copies of their real bodies. The real bodies went through the cross tunnel on the way down through the manhole. These were solid instructions from Hydra and Elvira.

Hydra was ecstatic as he walked with his friends back to their camp. He glanced back at the city that his team had just saved, its jewel-like lights still gleaming from the tall buildings.
Hydra and Pluggo were walking ahead of the gang.
“Pluggo, thanks for your help. I couldn’t have accomplished this incredible mission without your help. We made it.”
“Anytime Hydra, anytime. By the way, I meant to tell you something.”
“What is it?”
“About my backpack…”
Hydra stared at him intently.
