The ships had been in transit for two days when the notification appeared.
Noah was in the middle of a VPT session in the Eclipse command ship's cargo bay, which had been cleared of everything except training posts bolted to the floor and whatever open space people could carve out between them. Twenty Eclipse members working through repetitions, the sound of impacts filling the metal corridor with a rhythm that had become familiar enough to sleep to.
He was watching a faction member named Dara get close, the technique almost there, the force almost concentrating at the right point, when the system notification flickered at the edge of his vision.
[Bond Complete: Sophie Reign]
[Item Ready For Manifestation]
[Manifest Now? YES / NO]
He selected YES.
[Retrieving Item From Domain Storage...]
[Stand By]
Noah looked up from the training session.
"Sophie," he called across the ship's open comm channel. "Come to the cargo bay."
