Clara was staring at her tablet in amazement. "A-Alll eight pods are showing green across the board. Jin, what did you do?"

"We should get down there," Scarlett said, her mind already shifting to how to handle eight new team members. "They'll be confused and need medical help right away."
As they headed toward the cryo-bay, Jin felt a strange satisfaction settling in his chest. He'd saved them. All of them. Eight brilliant minds who would help ensure their survival and maybe even their prosperity.
'Jin,' Asha's voice carried a note of concern, 'we need to discuss those weird readings with you privately. Soon.'
"Not now, Asha. I want to make sure everyone's okay first," Jin replied mentally, his attention focused on the future.
