I still had the schematic of HaveRatton from when I had boarded Ship here on the way to Milu. The alert was from HaveRatton’s Port Authority, and ordered Ship to divert away from its usual slot in the private commercial docks to another section at the end of the public passenger embarkation zone. (I knew Ship wouldn’t betray me intentionally, but the chance of it doing so unintentionally was resting at a solid 84 percent.) Since Ship was a minimum capacity bot pilot and had all the brains and personality of a heat shield generator, I was also monitoring all its inputs and caught the navigation alert when it came in. Ship was on approach and I was waiting impatiently to pick up HaveRatton’s feed. Considering how much I’d been thinking about killing a bunch of humans, it was only fair. WHEN I GOT BACK to HaveRatton Station, a bunch of humans tried to kill me.
