As talented as Elena was, she lacked the skills to perform such a complicated task. Kira would need a hacker for that, something Elena wasn't.
Jin could—or Odin.
"I've got the map," Finn announced. "We need to take the corridor to our left."
"Elena, standby." Without waiting for an agreement, Kira put the call on hold, switching to search mode. "Please. Please, still be on the station."
"Kira, we need to get moving, or we'll lose them," Raider warned.
Kira stayed silent, sifting through her contact list. Jin always made this look so easy.
The name Allfather popped up. Kira hit it.
"Odin, are you there?"
Silence stretched.
She waited, feeling more and more hopeless as the moments passed.
Finally, there was a click.
"You do have an interesting knack of timing," Odin said grumpily.
"Odin, thank God," Kira said as Finn and Raider lost patience and set off.
Kira’s pace was much slower as she followed.
"Your comm almost got me caught by the Haldeel. Do you know what they do to people they find hacking their most sensitive systems—especially during an invasion?"
"Listen to me," Kira interrupted. "The Tsavitee have Jin."
Dead air echoed through the comms.
"What do you need from me?" Odin asked, sounding grim.
"There's some type of interference preventing me from using our special connection."
Not that Kira had ever tried using their link in that fashion. Jin could ride Kira's senses, and they could each feel each other's emotions, but tracking the other? That had always been Jin's ball of wax.
"Can you use his avatar to pinpoint his location?" Kira asked.
"He's started playing with those?"
Kira picked up her pace, keeping Finn and Raider's backs in view. "Just answer the question."
"Yes. Yes. He would have established some type of feature so he didn't lose track of the avatar. I should be able to reverse track his location from there."
That's what Kira wanted to hear.
"I'll need the avatar though."
"Can you get to theWanderer?"
Kira had no way of knowing how bad it was in the rest of the station. According to the Tsavitee’s way of doing things, their forces should have already infiltrated with the help of the androids. That was in addition to the attacks they were launching from the outside.
Kira wouldn't risk Elena's life—even for Jin. He wouldn't want her to either.
TheWandererhad the advantage of some of the most advanced tech coupled with the fact it was probably the safest place right now. Her security measures ensured any infiltrators would have a hell of a time breaching her defenses. If things got really bad, they could unlatch from the station and flee.
