Chapter 53 – Harry’s Farewell

The private plane descended smoothly onto the sunrise-lit runway. Steve McGarrett's group was back in Hawaii after their intense mission in Morocco. Doris was finally safe, and the feeling of relief was palpable among the team. Harry remained silent for most of the flight, always alert and focused on what might come next, even though the mission had already been successful.

When they landed, Lou Grover, Chin Ho Kelly, Kono Kalakaua, Catherine Rollins, and Steve led the way to a private room inside the airport, where they could decompress and discuss the last details of the operation. Doris stood next to her son, visibly relieved to be safely back on the ground.

"Looks like we did everything right this time," Chin commented, looking around at his teammates with relief.

"Thanks to Ghost here," Lou added, giving a slight smile and nodding toward Harry. "This guy is something else."

Harry, his face calm and impassive, shrugged modestly, but his gaze remained intent. The job was done, and now he was ready to move on.

"We did what needed to be done," Harry replied in his low, controlled voice. "It was a good mission, but the credit goes to everyone."

Steve approached Harry and held out his hand.

"Thank you for everything, Harry. I don't know what we would have done without you. My mother… we owe you that."

Harry shook Steve's hand firmly.

"You don't owe me anything. Your mother and I have a history, and I always keep my word. It was a mission, Steve. You would do the same for any of us."

Doris, who had been watching the exchange between the two, smiled as she approached Harry.

"It still amazes me how you move on the battlefield, even after all this time. I appreciate you coming, Harry. I couldn't have left without you."

Harry, a little more relaxed now, gave a slight smile.

"You were always tough, Doris. I just did my job."

They spent a few more moments together, reminiscing about parts of the mission, discussing possible future complications, and exchanging impressions about the events that had happened. However, it soon became clear that Harry's time with them was coming to an end.

Catherine, who had known Harry the longest, was the first to approach to say goodbye.

"It's going to be strange going back on missions without you around," she said, hugging Harry with a smile. "I hope our paths cross again, Ghost."

Harry returned the hug, without letting his usual reserve slip.

"I'm sure we'll meet again. Take care, Cath."

Kono, watching from afar, finally approached and, with a curious look, said:

"I still can't believe I actually met the legend. You exceeded all expectations."

Harry smiled slightly, shaking his head.

"Legends are just stories, Kono." The reality is much more complicated.

Chin Ho and Lou also said goodbye to Harry, both thanking him for his help and reaffirming his importance during the mission. With each farewell, the atmosphere of camaraderie and respect grew stronger.

Finally, Steve and Doris were the last to speak to him.

"London is going to seem boring after all this," Steve joked.

Harry smiled wryly.

"There's always another mission waiting, Steve. It's never really boring."

Steve nodded, understanding that feeling well.

"Good luck, Ghost. If you ever need anything, you know where to find us."

Harry nodded one last time and, without another word, turned and began walking towards the private plane that would take him back to London. As he walked away, the team watched his imposing figure slowly disappear into the distance. Silence fell for a moment, until Doris broke the stillness.

"This man is truly one of a kind," she said, looking at Steve with a smile of respect. Steve nodded, knowing he had just seen one of the best in action.

Inside the plane, Harry settled back in his seat, staring out the window as the aircraft prepared for takeoff. He was heading back to London, to his life in the SAS and on missions around the world. But even as he left Hawaii, he knew that this connection with Team McGarrett and Doris would be something he would take with him.

The plane took off, soaring into the sky, and Harry was once again on the move the Ghost, always on the lookout, ready for the next mission.
