"I don't think it matters much. It's just a couple hundred miles until we get to our destination," Kinney shrugs. "Delay the call for six hours and by the time we should be halfway in Adrasteia by then."
"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Bata'Vek nods. "Sure, no problem. Can't be too careful these days." He delays the call two hours rather than the prescribed six, just to be contrary. But he does delete the tracking of their location, only giving the frequency they're monitoring. Someone with the right equipment and time could still track them down without the group's help, but at least if trouble comes a knocking, they'll have some extra time to run away.

"Alright then. Let us hunt down a turian mercenary," Kinney says grinning and makes her way back to the Ant Eater. It certainly is no Grizzly or Mako but still much better than waiting for some noble soul to check on the distress call or marching the several hundred miles on Aite's surface.
When back at the BEM-X 34, Kinney checks the captured batarian, survivors and loot. "You better hold on. This one's about to get bumpy," the human says and revs up the engine before turning it back the way they came, towards the massacre site and then to the capital city of Aite.

The End
The message is sent, the comm tower is altered to alert the group if someone else comes a calling, and down the hill you go.
Kinney climbs into the driver seat for first shift driving to Adrasteia.
"Hold on its going to be a bumpy ride." The understatement of the month.
The long trip to civilization begins....
