"Hello? Mr. Stark? The plan's going smoothly. We've snuck inside. This ship is so huge that a lot of areas are completely empty. Their surveillance equipment doesn't seem able to detect our invisibility field, either. We're heading toward the engines..."
"...We're here. Oh my God, something must be seriously wrong here. I could tell without even going inside... What's this? Residual energy?"
Amid Peter's repeated exclamations, Stark could tell that the Kree ship was probably badly damaged. Blue Spirit's voice came from farther away. "Their engines seem to have been disrupted by some unknown force, causing an energy pulse to explode during transmission. Since it was an internal explosion, the exterior doesn't look too badly damaged, but in reality, they're completely incapable of making a jump..."
Peter heard Schiller's voice come through the phone. "Which direction is their ship heading now? Toward a star?"
"How did you know?" Peter asked in surprise. Before Schiller could answer, Blue Spirit said, "They'll definitely head toward a star. To repair their engines, they need a massive amount of energy, and the easiest place to extract energy is from a star in the local system."
"Can you get data on that star?"
"I'll have to check my genetic archive. Let's see... This place is too remote, and there aren't many records. But one thing is certain: the star here is a giant star, already nearing old age..."
"Good. Thank you. I'll explain the next part of the plan."
"First, I want you to cause a bit of trouble somewhere relatively far from the star and lure the Kree fleet's escort ships over there. We don't need many. Ten ships will do. It would be best if there are several different models..."
"Lure the escort ships away? All right, then what?" Peter asked.
"We'll send
