walk from this dark room for the last time

The perplexed pup still had no idea what was going on when both of his parents looked up with a start at him when he spoke, interrupting their moment. His young mind didn't even process the fact that Venom's eyes were fixed squarely on him, seeing him for the first time properly. Behind him, the sounds of his other siblings coming into the room took his attention away momentarily as Rebel, Renegade, and Rampage all came to check on the commotion as well. When he looked back to his parents, their mother was already getting up and looking down at all four of them. Then she started coming closer, still having said nothing, just looking at them. Rogue tilted his head in a comical canine fashion of confusion. It was only once Venom stretched out her long forelegs to scoop them all up in a great big hug did Rogue realize what was going on. Mom could see them now!

Despite the shock of the realization, Rogue still yapped in surprise as he was scooped up off his paws into his mother's bear hug, tiny legs and paws kicking as he wriggled against the siblings he was now smushed up to in the embrace as he attempted to wiggle himself free. "Ack! Mooooom! You're squishing me!" he protested with a whiny yowl, little chubby puppy limbs flailing helplessly as he was trapped a la hug attack by his mother. Their father explained what was happening, confirming what he had already mostly figured out. "Huh? Mom can see again? How?" he asked in confusion, only ceasing his squirming when he ran out of energy to continue fighting, leaving the young prince panting and dangling across his mother's foreleg. Peeking up at her with sunset eyes that matched hers, he tilted his head again and waved a paw in front of her face just like Maverick had done to see if she could actually see or if this was a prank. "Can you really see us, Mom?"
