Gabbie watched Leoine walk away, and took a last look around the bar, while she began typing a new message into her PADD. After finishing the draft, she checked her calendar for the next meeting, which was a couple days away with yet another corporate interest.

About a hour later, as she waited for the carrier to charge it's jump drive, and drag her ship along for a system untold light years away, she opened another message, and typed two words: "They're in." And hit send, as the alarm sounded in Gabbie's ear, warning for the imminent jump. A few moments after that, the first photons of the stretching blue and white of the Barrier hit her retinas, and she quickly launched her ship towards the next destination.
