Finding the body and digging up the grave was dirty work, but the Outsiders were used to dirty jobs. It helped to have Jade puppet's and Shift puppet's powers at the ready, otherwise the digging would have taken forever. The puppet versions of the Outsiders were glad to at least not have Nightwing puppet barking orders at them. Nightwing puppet had gone off to help Arsenal puppet with Lian, who was still recovering mentally from the kidnapping incident.
Though, without Arsenal and Nightwing puppets, it had taken them longer to find Indigo's body. Had both puppets been around, they might have been able to revive Indigo just after everything went awry with Luthor. Grace puppet declared herself in charge for this mission with their leader away, but her methods had gotten them sidetracked which led them to having to go grave robbing.
Thunder puppet wanted to help with the dig, but her powers would do more harm than good. It was better to use Jade puppet's constructs and Shift puppets power over elements to dig carefully, otherwise the could accidentally destroy Indigo's body beyond what Indigo puppet could repair.
Once the coffin was in sight, Shift puppet quickly ripped it open and gently extracted the body. He placed near the Grace, Thunder, and Indigo puppets who were waiting above. Jade puppet lingered in the air before joining them. Shift puppet went work of refilling the grave, not wanting to watch Indigo puppet go. He had already said his goodbyes earlier.
Indigo puppet hugged the other puppets waving her goodbyes and jumping into the body's chest. Suddenly, the decay of death faded away from Indigo's features. He skin was still a bluish green, though her body was now human, but with Indigo puppet's essence, she retained the powers she had before without being susceptible to outside control like Brainiac. Indigo stirred a bit, but she remained asleep as the remaining puppet Outsiders carried her away.
Before they had revived Indigo, they had planned to take her to Nightwing, rather than just dropping her off at outsider Headquarters. They would have brought her to Arsenal, but they were unsure of his whereabouts. The last place they could place Nightwing was the Watchtower, where they knew Arsenal puppet and Nightwing puppet were there watching Lian.
They carefully placed Indigo down at the front of the Watchtower. Shift puppet laid a kiss upon Indigo's forehead before signaling to the other members. All together, they made some noise, setting off warning bells that would surely catch Oracle's attention. The puppet Outsiders were gone when Indigo was found, in true Outsider fashion: doing all the work, but getting none of the glory.
