Khan made more attempts to contact Monica while the autopilot brought the ship out of the secret area. Yet, she seemed to have disappeared and become unreachable.

The Nognes family's custody could explain the lack of communication, but Khan couldn't find reassurance in hypotheses. Only seeing Monica would quell his worry, but it seemed he would have to complete the trip first.

The autopilot had fixed speed, and Khan dealt with that annoying wait by going through his many notifications. He had gained a general idea of the past months, but a review was in order. Also, the news of his status had hit the network, giving birth to countless articles.

The articles kept Khan busy until the ship finally allowed him to take control of the steering wheel. Needless to say, he stepped on the pedal, pushing the vehicle to its limits to shorten the trip. His body took a hit, but the shields soon compensated for the sudden acceleration.
