The moment the airlock shuts, the moment he touches down on the ground, he knows. His chi snaps through their paths again, like they were never blocked, and he feels alive.

It hums in his blood. His hands shake as he pulls off the too-heavy spacesuit. Bending is back. "It's back."

He stomps the ground and stretches forward, letting out a whirlwind burst of wind from his hands, which swirls down the hall, and then lets out a bright, happy laugh.

"It's back!" Powers are back and he can feel the world around him again.
