Draconian War: The Rescue
Return
Previous ChapterOn the way back to the Squidbeak base camp, Skye turned on vacuum pumps to blow the sleeping gas out of the rescue craft and replace it with regular air so nobody would pass out after taking their masks off. Once the air was clear, Skye turned the pumps off.
"You're clear to take masks off.", she said after she and Chase had taken theirs off.
After everyone took their gas-masks off, Mickey pulled out an injection device that was filled with a reviving serum. Once he had given it to everyone they'd rescued, he had immediate results. Everyone started waking up and they saw the Agents' faces. Knowing that the agents were friendly, nobody panicked. Twenty minutes later, they were arriving near the base camp. Skye radioed in and Pearl called out to Smolder.
"Rescue craft on approach. Get ready.", she said.
Smolder nodded and put on her ear-protectors. Gallus and Yona followed her to the landing area so they could get the chocks ready. As the craft came into view, Smolder turned her marshalling wands on and held them up. Motioning the wands carefully, she guided the craft to the ground until it had touched down.
"INSERT CHOCKS!", she yelled to Gallus and Yona.
Once the chocks were in place, Smolder held the wands over her head and slowly moved the tips towards each other to tell Skye that the chocks were inserted. Then, she swept one of the wands horizontally in front of her neck, telling Skye to cut the engines. Once the engines had stopped and there was silence, Skye opened the hatch and everyone got off. Callie and Marie were waiting behind the hatch when Skye opened it, and they ran to their parents when they got off. At that point, tears began to spill from their eyes. Crushing their parents in hugs, they cried their eyes out and kissed them. Moments later, Mickey and Minnie got off the aircraft with Taylor and Lizzie in their arms. When they saw Mickey and Minnie carrying the kids off the craft, Callie and Marie released their grip on their parents and rushed over. They still had tears in their eyes.
"Are our kids alright?", Marie asked through her tears.
"Safe and sound, you two.", whispered Minnie as she and Mickey handed Callie and Marie their babies.
Taylor and Lizzie had gone back to sleep during the flight. Callie and Marie instantly took their angels into their arms and kissed them on the forehead. Taylor and Lizzie woke up when they felt their mothers' lips touch them. Then they burst into tears of happiness that they were back with their family. As the tears were running, Callie and Marie unwrapped Taylor and Lizzie slightly so they could hug each other. Now that the rescue was complete, Callie and Marie led everyone back to Callie's house for the winter celebration. Taylor and Lizzie loved the presents they got, and Callie and Marie's parents got to meet the PAW Patrol and the Disney Fleet. Once everyone had quieted down, Flurry Heart pulled out a document that declared the Squidbeak Splatoon would become allied with all three fleets. Callie and Marie were excited by this, and they, along with Octavio, signed the document to form a permanent alliance with Equestria, the PAW Patrol, and the Disney Fleet. It was at this moment that they all realized what had happened during the last days.
"We have just declared war against Draconia. It will take everything we've got in order to beat them.", said Flurry Heart.
Callie and Marie nodded their heads in acceptance. The following morning, they made a guest appearance with Deep Cut to announce the Declaration of War. Everyone who had enlisted the previous year began gearing up.

At the Draconian Base, things were a different story. The base's General, Jared, became enraged upon hearing from the guards that all of their hostages were gone. In a state of fury, he called to Koval.
"WHAT? THEY'VE BEEN RESCUED?", screamed Koval angrily.
"I'm afraid so, Your Majesty. We didn't know this until we woke up. According to the guards, the rescuers shot something through the roof that released a gas which caused all of us to pass out. Then, the hostages were taken away.", explained Jared.
Neither Jared, nor Koval, knew that the Squidbeak soldiers would be coming in the morning.

The following day, Jared's troops were preparing for another hostage run when they suddenly heard the loud booming of cannons firing. Looking outside, they spotted the Squidbeak Navy arriving at the island. Then, they saw the shots from the lead ship strike their defense turrets and blow them up, splattering ink all over the ground in the process. These turrets were remote-controlled, so nobody was killed. Minutes later, Jared heard from a guard that someone demanded to see him. Reluctantly, he stood up and followed the guard to the main entrance. Upon arrival, he saw the Squid Sisters. They were ANGRY. After Callie readied her Splat Roller and Marie pulled out a Splat Charger and pointed it at Jared, the Captain marched up to him. Snarling, she handed him a sealed envelope. Feeling skittish, Jared opened the envelope and read what was inside. After reading what the letter said, he lowered his head in defeat.

Dear Draconian Leader,
You have opened fire on us and kidnapped the family members of my top two agents. As punishment, you are hereby BANISHED from our world. We have also issued a Declaration of War against you for this. Since you attacked first, we will return fire. You had best defend yourselves from us and our allies.
Signed,
Squidbeak Captain

Callie made the gesture that she was watching and Jared was led back to his post. He announced over the intercom that they were being forced to leave the planet. After they had packed up, dismantled their base, and blasted off, they returned home. Koval was even angrier that his squadron had been forced to leave. Part of this was due to the fact that Jared was his best General. Nevertheless, they started preparing to defend themselves from an attack from the four fleets.
