    Hello again.I've added Drifta's Quest 2 on this site. Unlikely to be a Drifta's Quest 3 but never say never. I am already working on a new book to fit in between other creative projects. As a mere lad of 68 I have a good few years to tell my stories so I hope people will keep enjoying them.

      Chapter 1

      First the good news. They were all alive and had somewhere to go. The bad news turned out to be agreeing where that somewhere was. After leaving Spero, they organized themselves into chores using their individual strengths and abilities. Lieutenant Liz Danders took on the lion's share of piloting the Romulus. Patrick Davron worked with her when asked, otherwise leaving her to feel her way around the ship and her idiosyncrasies.

      Sergeant Dale Matlock and Jasmine Belle took an inventory of everything, Matlock particularly fastidious with weapons. A peace had been declared with the aliens, but he wasn't about to take that for granted.

      Toby Akrins was in his element. A natural engineer, he spent much of his time coming to grips with all the working parts of the huge ship intended to be a flying temporary home for the people lucky enough to be selected to go to a fresh new planet. So engrossed was he that he was startled when Davron tapped him on the shoulder in the engine room.

      'Time for the meeting, Toby.'

      'Hmm? Oh. Right.' Akrins placed the tools back in their respective compartments. 'Time flies when we're having fun.'

      'You called for the meeting, Toby. The others are waiting in the kitchen.'

      Davron led the way out of the massive engine room in the rear underbelly of the ship, through the three holds, two of which were part of the work in progress of Peter Davron to transport the privileged few to their new planet before his son Patrick had stolen the ship.

      They passed the accommodation units they were using, into the kitchen area. Belle, Matlock and Danders were seated and Davron poured coffee for himself and Akrins then they sat together for the meeting.

      Belle said, 'No Rank. We've come too far for that now. We all have an equal voice. Agreed?'

      'It's the only way,' agreed Davron. 'Toby. Care to kick it off?'

      After a thoughtful sip of coffee, Akrins said, 'I've already given my opinions. I'll state them again just for the record. We need to go back to Earth.'

      'It's just a mess there, Toby,' said Matlock. 'A very ugly mess.'

      Akrins said, 'The war is over. The alien attacks are over. We need to rebuild Earth.'

      'You heard Axistrim,' said Matlock. 'The Earth is dying. No point going back there.'

      'You believe the word of an alien enemy?' snapped Akrins.

      'You say the war is over,' said Davron. 'How long for? You really think the human race can stop killing each other?'

      Akrins shrugged. 'I'd take a chance on it.'

      'You couldn't on your own, Toby,' said Danders. 'We all agree unanimously or not at all.'

      Akrins said, 'I thought this was to be a reasoned debate. It seems you've already made up your mind, Liz.'

      'I'm open minded, which is more than can be said of you.'

      'Hey,' said Davron. 'Toby wants a reasoned debate and we must respect that. We'll go round the table and each say our piece. Liz. Where should we go and why?'

      'I say we keep on our present course to the new planet that was due to be colonised. It was the nearest to our solar system with the potential for being our new home.'

      'Fair enough. Dale?'

      'Same. I'm sick of fighting. Pastures new.'

      'Jazz?'

      Belle had spent many hours in the quiet room she shared with Davron discussing life together on the new planet. She knew he was asking only to make sure they all had a say in the future and all cards were on the table.

      'We can't even get any response from their radios.
