Once the main base was ready for launch, all of the members got together and decided to call themselves the Disney Fleet. Thus, the base was christened the Disney Space Station (D.S.S.). Flurry had even shared the blueprints for a star core with everyone and all of the ships had one.
Mickey and his friends were chosen as the leaders. Pete, Clarabelle, Chip, and Dale were selected to work as signalers in the launch bay. In total, four shuttles were built. Each of these shuttles was designed to carry twelve soldiers. The procedure was such that a shuttle would return after each group of soldiers had boarded the D.S.S..
After confirming that all systems were go, the launch engines were fired and the D.S.S. lifted off from her hangar and slowly travelled higher and higher until she was in orbit around the globe.
After the D.S.S. was launched into space, everyone started boarding shuttles. Everyone was on board after three weeks-worth of constant launches. Combat training simulations were started and everyone got acclimated to their ships’ controls, squads learned how to form up, individuals learned which weapons to use in certain scenarios, and everyone was taught how to properly communicate with their comrades. Combat training was completed in two months and Mickey was contacted to let him and his friends know that everyone was ready. After getting word of this, he radioed Flurry Heart and relayed the message to her. Once Mickey and his friends had informed Flurry Heart that everyone was ready, they boarded their own shuttle. Once Toodles had plugged himself into the main console, the shuttle lifted off and headed for the D.S.S.. Flurry boarded her ship and took off for space at the same time. Once she was in position, she called to the Disney Fleet.
“Disney Fleet, this is Flurry Heart. This is what we have been training for over the last nine months. You may begin deployment when ready. It is time for the real deal. Set star drives to maximum warp and follow me. I have located the portal that brought me here from my own universe. According to my data, we have to be going extremely fast in order to traverse the portal successfully.”
The fleet radioed back and stated that they understood what she had told them all. Flurry took a deep breath and then charged up her star core as the fleet began deploying from the space station. She was about to return to her home universe and thwart Galeem’s plan to destroy darkness. The fleet called out to her once their star drives were charged and set to maximum.
The Disney Fleet was split up in four squadrons: Red, Green, Gray, and Blue. Flurry Heart was Gold Leader. As the fleet was deployed, she called out to them as the four squadrons formed up by color.
“All fighters, report in.”, she said.
“Red Leader, standing by.”, said Mickey.
“Gray Leader, standing by.”, said Donald.
“Green Leader, standing by.”, Goofy.
“Blue Leader, standing by.”, said Daisy.
“This is Red Two. The twins are ready for action.”, said Minnie.
Hearing all of the clarifications told Flurry that everyone was ready. She aimed herself in the direction of the portal and the fleet formed up behind her.
“Here we go. In 3, 2, 1, MARK!”, Flurry cried as she fired her engines.
Her ship zoomed in the direction of the portal and everyone else followed suit. Once they got close to the portal, a notification popped up on their displays.
*Approaching dimensional portal. Prepare for g-force. *
The ships passed through the portal’s membrane and instantly sped up. Some of the pilots were pulled back in their seats because the force was stronger than they expected. Eventually, they emerged near the asteroid belt in Equus’ solar system. They were pointed towards Equus when they emerged.
“Lock S-foils in attack position.”, said Flurry as she opened her wings.
“Copy, Gold Leader.”, replied all of the leaders as all of the fighters opened their wings.

On Galeem’s flagship…
“Sir, I have spotted Flurry Heart’s ship. She is emerging near the asteroid belt and has brought a ton of new pilots with her. These fighters are like nothing I’ve never seen before.”, reported one of the high commanders.
Galeem acknowledged what he was told and ordered his forces to prepare for battle.
