The Horus arrives at Farfallus and docks on an asteroid containing the XGP15A-II, an advanced spaceship. Hilda turns on Gilliam II, the computer of the XGP15A-II, which registers the four as its crew. Melfina displays her ability to link her mind with the ship while the Kei Pirates arrive and attempt to gain control of the XGP15A-II. Gene, Jim, and Melfina later escape the star's gravity well, by breaking out of the asteroid, while Hilda sacrifices herself to protect them from the Kei Pirates. Gene names the ship the Outlaw Star in Hilda's honor.
