Wren is transferring to Master Esparatin's Academy on Seesquala, riding in the newest design and fastest cruiser ever built, the VB-5 Thunderbird! Soon the ship will enter Time Continuum Strand Number 107 and exit at Seesquala's Light Gate. Wren has seen pictures of a TC Strand, which appeared to be a ball of fiery lightning in constant motion. He is wondering how they will get inside, what is there, and how they will get out, when a banner flashes across his computer screen: Apatherilean Pirates attacking ships at Seesquala light gate 107 Exit!. Wren knows the VB-5 is well armed, but he also knows one is blind at the exit to what is outside the gate. Then another announcement flashes across his screen. "Wren you are about to get the ride of your life, we will still enter the TC Strand and I have a great surprise in store for you."
