Quest for the Conestoga (Colony Ship Conestoga Book 1) (27 page)

“Sandie?  You will continue to try to make contact back to Dome 17 so we can open the teleportation orifice?”  Cammarry asked.

“I am constantly monitoring for the signal, and I have been initiating the receiving pad to make an attempt once every twenty-four hours.  The scout ship and rooms around it are secure.  I can also remotely assist you as needed,” the AI replied.  “We are in this adventure together.”

“So it seems our next quest is learning to survive on the Conestoga,” Cammarry said as she wrapped her arms around Jerome. 

“To not only survive, but to thrive, and to learn all we can about our new home, the Colony Ship Conestoga,” Jerome replied. 

Khin laughed and laughed and laughed.
