"This is the exit beacon," Sarah reported. "Nothing much here, except for a few very thin traces of gas. It's mostly a clear beacon,"
"What's the next sector?" Jake asked
"Abandoned 01"
"There are more than one abandoned sectors?" Jake asked, his voice sounding astonished. But internally, he somewhat expected that.
"Yeah. The Rebels are conducting minimal research and testing in Abandoned 01, but their most major research occurs in Abandoned 03, and beyond."
"What about 02?"
"For some reason, the Rebels pulled everything out of 02, deeming it 'Lost Cause, too dangerous.'"
"That's not good. Can we avoid 02?"
"The only alternative is to go through a complexly Rebel controlled sector, where we'd be ripped to shreds."
"Well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it."
"So for now it's Abandoned 01, an Abandoned sector with some Rebel activity," Sarah clarified.
"Here goes nothing," Jake said, pressing the jump button.
