Running away from Messaline, if it could be called that, had possibly been the best idea Jenny ever had. Dad had been right. There were so many worlds out there, so many possibilities, and she had every intention of seeing them all.
Starting with... Umbeka, she decided as the planet registered on the screen of the shuttle she had stolen. Umbeka sounded good. U's, in general, seemed like a good place to start.
Her eyes scanned the computer information screen quickly. Mostly winter, it appeared, with few weeks of summer. Seasons. Seasons! Oh, she had never witnessed those before! Snow seemed a far off memory... although whose she had no idea.
Umbeka it was. Maybe there would be some sort of snow crisis and people to rescue and... and! Jenny found herself laughing, enthusiasm sparkling in her eyes along with a smile as wide as any she had ever seen on her father's face.
There'd be lots of running on Umbeka. Had to be. What good was a planet, a proper new planet with lots of outdoor areas, if she couldn't run?
Brilliant. It'll be absolutely brilliant.
