“See? Injustice. Here we are, risking our lives to rescue Kai and this whole planet, and Adri and Pearl get to go to the royal wedding. I’m disgusted. I hope they spill soy sauce on their fancy dresses.â€�

Jacin’s concern turned fast to annoyance. “Your ship has some messed-up priorities, you know that?�

“Iko. My name is Iko. If you don’t stop calling me the ‘ship,� I am going to make sure you never have hot water during your showers again, do you understand me?�

“Yeah, hold that thought while I go disable the speaker system.�

“What? You can’t mute me. Cinder!”

“She heard footsteps thumping from the crew quarters and Jacin appeared in the cargo bay, eyes wide. “What happened? Why is the ship screaming?â€�

“Nothing. Everything’s fine,� Cinder stammered.

“No, everything is not fine,� said Iko. “How can they be invited? I’ve never seen a bigger injustice in all my programmed life, and believe me, I have seen some big injustices.�

Jacin raised an eyebrow at Cinder.

“We just learned that my former guardian received an invitation to the wedding.� She opened the tab beside her stepmother’s name, thinking maybe it was a mistake.

“You guys are all into that born again thing, which is great. We do need to be born again, since Jesus said that to a guy named Nicodemus. But if you tell me I have to be born again to enter the kingdom of God, I can tell you that you have to sell everything you have and give it to the poor, because Jesus said that to one guy too…[And he paused in the awkward silence.] But I guess that’s why God invented highlighters, so we can highlight the parts we like and ignore the rest.”
