For the third time that morning, Owen was resetting the navigation system. Now he charted a course that would take them to the edge of the Federation territory. He could settle for that. He would be closer to the Monarchy retreat force. There would be more signs of their presence there on the edge. They would be closer, maybe close enough to directly intercept coms.
He doubted that. But maybe.
After launch, the ship tilted noticeably to one side as he arced it towards the hyperspace lanes.
But he altered course again with the new knowledge that something was amiss on board. He wouldn't jump until they settled matters.
“Captain,” he said projecting his voice quietly through her wrist piece. “Draw your blaster pistol. I believe we have a stowaway on board that is thwarting visual detection.”
The ship was turning making large spirals in empty space. As they rounded another spiral, the waystation framed by the distant planet came to view in the windscreen. Other ships were taking off and docking there. Seemingly, business as usual.
