=== Chapter 39 ===
Spensa runs back to the dock of Platform Prime, gets into her Superiority-issued starfighter, and takes off. She tries to look for Brade's starfighter in the battle, but is unsuccessful. She spots the Swims Against the Current in a Stream Reflecting the Sun and flies towards it, hoping Hesho will know where Brade is. Spensa tries opening a private comm line but receives no response. She pops the cockpit and floats out above her ship, telling Hesho he can take the first shot at a human. They go back and forth, arguing about Spensa lying versus Hesho only knowing one person during their time in training, and that person he knew was not a mindless killing machine in the way the Superiority describes humans. She tells him that Winzik plans to use Brade to summon a delver, and Kauri chimes in and asks Hesho to ask his crew. The comm goes silent, and Hesho is overruled. The crew decides not to shoot Spensa. Hesho informs Spensa Morriumur decided to end his time as a pilot and that Vapor is somewhere in the fight. Kauri tells Spensa they were instructed to protect Brade at all costs, which further supports Spensa's assumptions. As a sign of good Faith, Spensa tells Hesho about the taynix and them being the secret to Superiority hyperdrives. Hesho tells Spensa he has the Weights and Measures battle plan, and a kitsen onboard tells Spensa the coordinates Brade should be at. Another kitsen tells Hesho that the Weights and Measures has contacted them and asked them what they are doing, so Hesho tells them to stall. Vapor patches a private comm line to Spensa and tells her she's figured out that Spensa's really from Detritus. Spensa tells Vapor her theory about Brade, and Vapor agrees. The trio takes a defensive position and moves in on Brade. Spensa calls Cobb on the general DDF line and tells him to have all pilots cut off all communications, and even power down Platform Prime, as Brade is about to summon a delver. Cobb says he will, and the trio approach Brade and patch through a comm line to her. Brade tells Spensa she's always wanted to see who's the better of the two of them, then Spensa mutes the line and tells Vapor and Hesho they can't shoot to disable, they have to shoot to kill.
=== Chapter 40 ===
Spensa, Vapor, and Hesho give Chase, but are outclassed by Brade, who gets a shot on Vapor that takes off her wing and part of her cockpit, while striking Hesho's ship, making it vent air. Spensa and Brade engage in one on one combat, chasing each other, not able to get a shot off. Spensa realizes she doesn't need to beat Brade on her own, so leads her back towards Vapor, who is able to take control of her starfighter and lock it down. Spensa takes a shot at Brade's cockpit, but not before Brade lets loose a shrill scream, and something emerges from the nowhere.
=== Chapter 41 ===
The emergence of the delver pushes Spensa's shot wide and pushes her ship aside. Spensa fears she has failed, all while powered down Platform Prime and its fleet hold its breath in anticipation. Spensa tries to distract it, and feeds it the location of the loud and buzzing space station she'd just come from. The delver vanishes, and reality ripples, and Spensa realizes she has loosed the delver on [[Starsight (station)|Starsight]].
=== Chapter 42 ===
Kauri tells Spensa Hesho is dead, and Vapor tells her the Superiority might retreat after the failure of their weapon, but Spensa tells her it is headed towards Starsight. Vapor and Kauri panic, and Brade patches through a private comm, demanding to know what Spensa did. Spensa tells her she saved their people, and Brade slips into the nowhere. Spensa tells Vapor and Kauri to touch their wings to hers, and she brings all three ships into the nowhere, towards [[Starsight (station)|Starsight]].
=== Interlude I-3 ===
