;Plot Summary
Spensa and Chet go onto the pirate base fragment, and observe the base from a distance. Spensa notices both a human pirate and a dione one, and some of the pirates seem to be doing repairs. Chet advises that Spensa leave her reality icon behind, saying to bury it there so that the pirates don’t get it. Spensa is suspicious, and fakes burying the icon while secretly keeping it. M-Bot tells Spensa that there are three pirates working in the hangar, but no other heat signatures. The other pirates are asleep. They decide that Chet will make a distraction while Spensa can go in and steal a fighter.

;Plot Summary
As she goes to the hangar, Spensa sends M-Bot to spy on Chet and see if he digs up the reality icon. He doesn’t. Still, Spensa is suspicious. She buries the pin, then decides to go for a different hangar in case Chet plans to betray her. Spensa slips into the hangar, and goes to a sleek interceptor. She doesn’t see anything in the cockpit, and M-Bot tries to connect to the ship. He gets locked out, and lights in the cockpit turn on. Inside Spensa sees a hulking crystalline body inside the cockpit. She realizes that M-Bot had scanned for heat signatures, but not all aliens give off heat. Spensa tries to run, but the ship levels one of its destructors at her. Spensa stops and surrenders.

;Plot Summary
The pirates tie Spensa to a chair, and Spensa sees that there’s only one human among them. Most of the pirates are diones, though there are several heklo, a [[varvax]], and a [[tenasi]]. The pirate captain is slightly impressed at Spensa’s audacity, and tells her that she is their new cleaning slave. Spensa sees that M-Bot is pretending to be an ordinary cleaning drone. Spensa introduces herself, and tells the captain that cleaning drone has some illegal programs, which let her hack into the ship. The captain introduces herself as [[Peg]], and tells her that Chet ran off. Peg tells the others to keep Spensa on a leash and to keep her away from M-Bot.

;Plot Summary
Spensa is leashed to a wall with a light-line, and she is set to greasing parts. Spensa is glad for the work, glad she has something to make her angry. She talks cytonically to Chet, who has been shot by a destructor. Spensa learns to whisper when talking cytonically so as not to draw delver attention. Spensa confesses that she changed the plan in case he’d betray her, and felt his great pain and feeling of betrayl from him. She apologizes, and Chet tries to act as if he doesn’t care. Spensa observers the Broadsider, and sees that they only have nine starfighters. The human pirate, who introduces himself as Maksim, gives Spensa more things to grease at her request. Maksim talks to Spensa, trying to find out more about her past life, but Spensa doesn’t say much. Chet talks to Spensa again, and expresses his self doubt about who he really is. He says that if he isn’t a gentlemanly hero and explorer, he doesn’t know who he is. Spensa apologizes again, and Chet accepts it.

;Plot Summary
Spensa learns more about the pirates, mostly through Maksim. She learns more about the pirates who work in the hangar, called Cutlass Flight. She notices that the Broadsider have a long-range scanner, and she tells Chet. Chet says that they’ll have to sabotage the scanner if they’ll want to flee and continue. The next day, Maksim takes off Spensa’s light-line, and Spensa volunteers to take on a harder task. She is set to fixing Shiver’s defective destructor. Spensa talks to Shiver as she works, who is a [[resonant]], and is thus made up of crystals. Spensa compares resonants to [[figment|figments]], which Shivers disagrees with. Shiver’s relaxed nature nature reminds Spensa of [[Kimmalyn]]. Spensa gets permission from [[Nuluba]] to use M-Bot to help clean the destructor, and Spensa fills him in on what has happened. M-Bot tells Spensa that she’s been with the Broadsider for two weeks, which shocks Spensa, who thinks it had been much shorter. Chet tells Spensa that it is dangerous to stay in one place too long.

;Plot Summary
Maksim talks to Spensa about his old masters, who kept him as a pet. He reminds Spensa of Nedd, and it takes Spensa an alarmingly long time to remember Nedd’s name. Spensa asks Nuluba about her past, and learns she did customer analysis. When she asked too many questions, she was tossed into the nowhere. Maksim tells Spensa that Peg was a Superiority officer, and head of base security at the mining station. When Peg and thirty others stole ships and joined the pirates, and her two children formed their own factions. They tell her that Peg wants to unify the pirate factions, and that one of her sons is the current pirate champion. If they can defeat the champion, Peg’s children will listen to her.
Spensa goes over to a starfighter while the pirates talk, and M-Bot uploads himself into the ship. Spensa talks with Maksim, telling him that she lived on the human enclave, which he hadn’t thought to be real. He asks her about life there, curious. Peg pulls Spensa aside, telling her that she is a killer. She says that she recognizes Spensa as a fellow killer. She lunges for Spensa and attacks.

;Plot Summary
Spensa and Peg engage in a fierce hand-to-hand fight, Spensa eventually defeating Peg by going for her knees. The other pirates level weapons at her, but M-Bot brings his new ship up into the air, leveling destructors at the pirates. Spensa gets into M-Bot, now in his new body. M-Bot opens the hangar doors and asks Spensa if he could fly. Spensa gives him permission, and he takes off clumsily, clipping the hangar door on the way out. M-Bot still isn’t flying very well when the pirates began to fly out after them. Spensa takes the controls and flies away, testing the pirates’ ability to keep up. Spensa evades the pirates expertly, outmatching them in skill. M-Bot discovers that the destructors on the pirates’ ships are not lethal, but only lock up ships by overwhelming their electronic systems. Spensa flies back towards the Broadsider base, and shoots new pirate ships as they try to fly out. Spensa gives M-Bot the controls and exits her plane to go to where she buried her father’s pin. It isn’t there.

;Plot Summary
Spensa is shocked and grieved at the loss of her pin, and tells Chet, believing him when he says he didn’t take it. Spensa picks up Chet, who suggests heading for the Cannonade border. M-Bot informs them that they’d be intercepted before making it to the border. Spensa suggests going straight up. She starts flying upwards, and gets a radio communication from Peg. Peg shouts that she didn’t know Spensa was a pilot, and is very impressed with her flying. Peg warns her however, that flying up too high will make her lose her memories and sense of self. Peg offers that if Spensa returns, she’ll get Peg’s best ship. In exchange, Spensa will defeat the pirate champion for her. Peg says that if she wins and she gets the other factions on her side, they’ll assault the Superiority base of [[Surehold]] and take it back. Chet agrees that they should head back down, and Spensa flies down. Spensa joins the other pirates, who don’t shoot her down, and is determined to continue the Path of Elders.

They exchange casual banter as they fly, reminding Spensa of time with her friends. Peg explains more about her past, and tells Spensa that the Superiority uses non-lethal destructors as well.

;Plot Summary
They land on the fragment, which is very large. When asked about the ruins, Spensa says that Chet is an archeologist. Peg orders the others to look for salvage. At the portal, Spensa and Chet identify human markings and murals in the structure around the portal. They connect to it, unlocking the memories inside.
They watch a group of humans in ancient clothing emerge from the portal and build the structure, time again sped up. Soon a fragment full of [[UrDail]] arrive, and greet the humans with familiarity. Spensa watch as they occasionally send people to each other’s planets, until one day the humans stop coming. Eventually, the UrDail stop coming. A woman appears, and responds when Spensa asks who she is. She says that she can feel their questions, and that she leaves her answers in the portal. She says that hundreds of cytonics fought against one delvers. Spensa says that they now face millions of delvers, and the woman tells them that they are then doomed. She tells them to seek out the memories of [[Jason Write]]. She sends an impression of the next portal. Chet recognizes the portal as being in Surehold, the seat of Superiority power in the belt.

They arrive back at base in the midst of a full firefight, and M-Bot highlights enemy ships on Spensa’s display. The enemy pirates are from the [[Jolly Roger Faction]], led by Gremm. Spensa goes for the weaker fighters first to prevent her flight from being overwhelmed. Spensa deals with the enemy ships with relative ease, surpassing the enemies in skill greatly. She shoots down three enemy ships in under five minutes. She uses her IMP to giver Cutlass Flight easy targets. Gremm chases after her, and they engage in a fierce duel in the air. Gremm prevails, scoring several hits on Spensa’s ship and locking it up. Spensa laughs, excited by the thrill of the fight. Chet wakes up, having lost consciousness during the dogfight. By the end of the battle, Spensa has four kills and three assists, astounding Peg. With the Jolly Rogers still soundly defeated and Gremm impressed with Spensa’s flying, Gremm agrees to officially duel Spensa the next day.
