The horse-drawn carriage stopped outside the city. Vicki paid the coachman and walked away as the coachman watched her in confusion.
"This young maiden is going out of the city all alone. She's really bold." The coachman shook his head and turned to return to the city.
Vicki crossed a hill and looked left and right. After ensuring that there was no one, she took out her watch and tapped on the virtual screen.
The ground shook slightly and in the mountain a little way away, the fallen leaves that had piled up started dropping and a silver spaceship rose as a blue flame shot out from below it. The spaceship hovered in front of Vicki.
Vicki stepped on the spiral staircase and entered the ship.
She pulled out the small silver rod from a little pouch and inserted it into the hole right in the middle of the control panel.
"Identification success. Highest security clearance enabled!"
A robotic voice sounded.
"Go here."
