Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Voxy leads Petra through the ship to the quarters he shares with Nyla. Luckily, she isn’t around when they enter. Voxy explains how happy he was to find a book to read, saying that he was delighted to experience a world where people are different from each other and free to do as they please.
At first, they find nothing, but Voxy manages to pry open a catch on the back wall of his sleeping cell that leads to a hidden room. Inside is a holographic representation of Earth’s solar system. Petra recognizes it as the seed vault that once stored all the Earth plants that the voyagers brought with them. She finds many En Cognito downloadable programs but doesn’t know for whom they are intended. She also finds the personal belongings of the humans who first boarded the ship, including her family’s. She finds Javier’s book, Dreamers, which Voxy insists is the one he once read. Most importantly, Petra finds the obsidian necklace that Lita gave her the night before she left. Lita said it was “a doorway to bring lost ones together” (2).
Voxy urges Petra to leave before Nyla returns, but they are too late.
