"I've never seen anything like this in a temporal zone", says Nate.
He, Ava, Spooner and Mick see many capsules and a few aliens fly through the temporal zone.
"Aliens. Lot's of them. They're falling into the timeline", states Spooner as she joins them.
Ava lets out a sigh and smiles.
Nate hears this and turns his head to her and sees that she is smiling. Now he is completely confused. Why the hell is she smiling?
"Why are you smiling?" asks Nate confused before he looks back to the temporal zone. "We got to clean this mess up", adds he. That's why he is so confused because Ava is always the first one who complains about cleaning a mess like that up.
"I know. It's just that the only person who could create this much mayhem is Sara which means she's alive", explains the blonde woman with hope in her voice.
"Well, if the universe shows you a sign you should believe it", says Mick. Ava keeps looking out for Sara. But she doesn't see her anywhere. Where is she?
Sara and Gary are in a alien space ship and fly towards the wormhole in the hope to catch it in time.
"Engaged? I'm so happy, I could cry", says Gary with a broken voice and has to blink away a few tears that comes into his eyes.
Sara has to stop herself from rolling her eyes. If it weren't for Gary getting her kidnapped before she had the chance to ask Ava this special question, they would have already be engaged and Ava would have had the ring on her finger by now.
"Gary, if we don't get through that wormhole we are stuck here", reminds Sara him that they are a little too slow to reach the damn wormhole.
What also means they can't reach the Waverider and she could never give Ava the ring, she wouldn't be able to marry the love of her life. But that's what Sara wants and she will do anything to make it possible.
"I'm going as fast as I can. I'm sorry. I'm not as good a pilot as fiancée", confesses Gary as he keeps flying the space ship.
When Sara hears this she looks at Gary in shock. "Wait. You and the other alien are engaged?" asks the Captain completely taken aback about this new information. She never expect something like. Well, she never expected that Gary would be an alien either. But here there are.
"Her name's Kayla. But yeah. I assume the wedding's off now. Did I not mention that?" replies the alien. He could have sworn that he said something about that at some point.
"We could talk about this later. Right now just get us through that wormhole", says Sara in her captain's voice.
Gary accelerates even more and gets everything he can out of this space ship.
"We are gonna make it. We are gonna make it", repeats Lance and really hopes that they can do it.
The space ship flies through the wormhole. Sara and Gary really did make it through the wormhole just in time.
"Yes, we did it!", exclaims the former assassin and pats Gary on the shoulder.
"Now we have to find the Waverider", adds Sara.
Luckily they don't need much time to find the Waverider. They make their way inside and walk to the control room where the others are.
"Oh my god, Sara. You are back", says the taller blonde woman relieved to see her girlfriend here back on the Waverider. She beams from ear to ear as she approaches the other woman. Ava picks her girlfriend up and spins her around. She is happy and relieved to have her Sara, her co-captain, back in her arms.
Sara slings her legs around Ava's waist and buries her head in Ava's neck.
"I missed you so much, Sara", whispers Ava.
Sara pulls her head away to be able to look her girlfriend in her face.
"I missed you too, babe", replies Lance and leans down to kiss Ava, who doesn't hesitate for a second and returns the kiss.
After they break their kiss, the former Time Bureau Director puts her girlfriend back on the ground.
"Welcome back, Captain Lance", says Gideon with obvious joy in her voice.
"Thank you, Gideon. It's good to be home", replies Sara with a smile. The former assassin would rather not think about what would have happened if they hadn't made it in time. In the end they would have crashed onto a very dangerous planet and been stranded.
Ava looks into Gary's direction and glares at him. She is pretty mad at him. "And now to you, Gary Green", says she furious and walks over to him.
'Oh oh', thinks he scared because he knows he is in trouble. Gary tries to escape but he knows he can't escape Ava.
"That's for kidnapping my girlfriend", says she and punches him in the shoulder. "And that's for not telling me you are an alien", adds she and punches him on the same spot and looks at him pretty angry.
When Gary sees the angry look from Ava he takes a few steps back. He is pretty scared of Ava. Now only more so because he kidnapped Ava's girlfriend.
"I'm sorry", whimpers the alien.
"I hope that you are sorry", hisses the taller woman and takes a step closer to him. "I warn you, if you kidnap my Sara again then you will get to know me from a completely different side and believe me you don't want that", Ava threatens Gary, who is now very small with a hat. He's lucky that Ava doesn't kill him on the spot. But the former Director of the Time Bureau would make it rather slow and particulary painful. Gary is 100% sure of that. He laughs nervously and moves out of Ava's reach.
"I don't want to wait any longer", says Sara determinedly.
Sara really doesn't want to wait any longer. She now wants to propose to her girlfriend right away.
Theoretically Ava already said yes and told her she would marry her when Sara is back. But the smaller blonde woman wants to do it properly because Ava deserves to get a real proposal.
And who knows what else will happen before she has the chance to ask this question? With her luck, something will happen again. Because the first time she wanted to propose, she was kidnapped by damn aliens. That's why she wants to do it right here and now.
The ex assassin goes down on one knee and takes the ring out of her pocket. She takes a deep breath and holds the ring out to her girlfriend. "Ava Sharpe, you are the love of my life, my co-captain. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you do me the honor and marry me?" asks Sara a little nervous.
"Yes, I will!" shouts Sharpe and throws herself at Sara and kisses the living out of her.
After they break their kiss they stand up, Sara slips the ring onto her fiancée's finger.
"I love it", whispers Ava while she looks at her new ring.
"I'm glad", replies Sara. She saw the ring and immediately had to think of her girlfriend, now her fiancée.
Sharpe looks back into her fiancée's eyes. "I love you", whispers she and leans down to kiss Sara again.
"I love you too", whispers Sara against Ava's lips. Finally she was able to propose to her girlfriend properly.
The Legends are happy for them and congratulate them on their engagement.
Suddely an alien hits the windshield and everyone turns to look there.
"Oh, this could be my fault", says the smaller woman sheepish and points to the windshield.
The taller woman takes a step closer to her fiancée. "It's okay, Sara. That way I knew you were alive because I immediately knew it was your work", says Sharpe and puts her hand on her fiancée's cheek and strokes the soft skin with her thumb. Ava knew right away it has to be Sara who did this.
Captain Lance leans into the touch and pulls the other woman in another kiss.
The freshly engaged couple disappears in their room to celebrate their engagement in their special way.
