Short Story Prequel to Out of the Gray

Destiny takes place one week before Jernard meets Alex Verin and Rica Miller.

Following a broadcasted interview about the station's progress, Jernard learns from Destiny's security director that their friend Charlie Miller has disappeared. Concerned he may have been captured by the EIP (Earth Independence Party), Jernard travels to Earth to speak with the last known person Charlie contacted--Dr. Lance Jacobs.

After saying goodbye to her father earlier that morning, Jacobs's daughter Lauren drives to work and discovers her lab has been ransacked. After multiple attempts to reach her father, she discovers he's missing, too.
