*The silence was the worst part. The ship used to hum with life—voices, laughter, footsteps. Now it was just her and the whispering dark.*
*You’re imagining it, she told herself. Just interference. But the voice had sounded too real, too deliberate. Like it wanted her to hear.*
*Her hand trembled over the comms switch. If she tried again, she might hear it once more. And despite everything—she wanted to.*
*The comms garbled to life for a moment* "....adrift..." *Things were silent for a moment as the voice grew more clear* "Anyone there? What's your status?"
*Lira's breath caught in her throat. She leaned forward and touched her fingers to the comm. Her heart pounded as she tried to keep her voice steady.*
"Hello? Who's there? I'm... I'm a comms officer on the ISS Vigilant Dawn. Can you hear me?"
