No thanks are necessary. I am merely obeying my programming and following the First Law.
I shall advise you when I have recovered the child.
END TRANSMISSION
Upon entering Omega-5, Isaac did a sensor sweep of the system to determine the Bonne Venture's location.

Location was confirmed as near to the Hammen Hole. One life sign confirmed, area clear of hostile forces.

Isaac locked his nav circuits to the ship's location and made a beeline for it, dodging the Hessian and Corsair patrols that tried to intercept him, and sustaining minimal shield damage from the mines.
Eventually, he located the Bonne Venture and, noting its damaged status, flew around in front of the cockpit window. "Pumpkin, this is Isaac. Can you see me out of the window?"

She waved her hand at the big ship that had appeared outside the cockpit window, it was all bright and shiny.
I see you! she said, jumping up excitedly.

"Do you have escape pods aboard?" Isaac asked. "They look like this." A picture of an escape pod entrance flashed onto the screen, next to a picture of a jettisoned escape pod tube. A big red X was over the second one.

She nodded her head, yes I see one, its set into the floor. The first bad man got into one after things went boom. But there is still one more. She clutched Mister Whistles to her chest as she stood up. Can I go home now?

"Yes," said Isaac. He quickly interfaced with the computer to make sure the pod was operational.

"Please get into the pod," Isaac instructed Sally. "When I say so, press the button marked EJECT. It should be a big, red button."

Sally climbed into the pod, making sure that Mister Whistles was securely seatbelted in, like her Daddy always did to her during safety drills aboard Cambridge Research Station. She fiddled with her own, buckling it up tightly with her small hands and looking nervously around the tight white pod.
Im ok Mister Issac, Im here.
