As it turned out, performing another scan of the area was a wise decision. With an expanded scan, the ship’s sensors picked up on an anomaly. There were traces of propellant byproducts the sensors could detect, indicative of a ship that had been boosting quickly. It had not come from their own ship, nor was it left over from the crashed freighter. The only remaining option was that another ship had been nearby, and a more focused scan in that direction would reveal it. It blended well into the terrain, but there was another ship, comparable in size to Light’s, hiding out in a crater a fair distance away. Based on the byproducts the scans detected, it had come in after Light had landed, so the fact that his ship’s passive scans had not detected it meant that it had been trying to approach stealthily. Likely, it had gone wide around the planet and approached from very low altitude to hide itself on sensors. It was out of sight, but close enough that its crew could feasibly reach them over ground, especially if they had vehicles.
