Chapter 3: Chapter two: A slight miscalculation
Previous Chapter Next ChapterWARNING!!!! COORDINATES NOT RECEIVED CORRECTLY!!! ATMOSPHERIC BREACH IMMINENT!!! SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!!!!! "Henry! Activate paladin EVA re-entry system!" AFFIRMATIVE, SHIELDS ONLINE, HYDRAULIC SHOCK BRACE ONLINE, PREPARING FOR ORBITAL RE-ENTRY Thank the maker everything should be fine now, the system will activate shields and put the braces on your legs to protect against any damage to the endoskeleton. All there is too do now is wait to crash into the alien planet roughly 5 miles below you. CALCULATING ESTIMATED TIME UNTIL LANDFALL...DONE LANDFALL IN TWENTY THREE MINUTES THIRTEEN SECONDS You sigh, "I guess I have enough time to survey the conditions. It seems very stable, local star is quite a long time from burning out, nearest black hole is twelve parsecs away so that won't be a problem now let's look at the atmosphere. Mainly composed of oxygen with trace amounts of CO2 and helium , hmm I hope they don't have squeaky annoying voices hehe." you chuckle to yourself
"Hey what's that smell?" you look down to realize that your synthetic skin has begun burning and is melting away rather quickly. "Oh that's unfortunate." you look at yourself and see that the damage is far worse than expected and basically half of your carbon titanium reinforced endoskeleton has been exposed "OH THAT'S VERY UNFORTUNATE!!! HENRY!!!!" AYE SIR? "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THIS!!!" TELL WHAT SIR? "Oh I don't know maybe that MY SKIN IS MELTING!!!!" TO WHAT SECTION OF SKIN ARE YOU REFERRING TO SIR? "FUCKING ALL OF IT!!!!" DAMAGE BEGAN TWENTY MINUTES AGO, ACTIVATING REPAIR STASIS "Wait Henry! No!!!! Just wait until EVA re-entry! What caused this my skin can withstand 7500 degree's celcius !?!"
SCANNING FOR HEAT ORIGIN...ORIGIN FOUND, UNKNOWN ENERGY SOURCE GAURDING ALIEN CITIES, CORRECTING COURSE, DONE CRASH SITE UPDED TO TARGET NAME DESIGNATE UNKNOWN FOREST "Keep going! Don't activate stasis yeti still want to finish analysis of planet." All we need is to enter an un analyzed planet and end up accidently waging war on their inhabitants like with those weird Dalek things. I still don't know what their problem was. SIR DAMAGE CANNOT BE CONTAINED "Just hold out Henry!" you have to make it, FIRE HAS SPREAD TO CENTRAL MEMORY "Just wait!!!" Only a few more seconds but you feel the fire spreading over the wiring and you can't seem to remember why. WAR-WARNING! SYS-SYSTE-SYSTEM FAILING! "JUST WAIT!" Where am I? VISUAL RECE-RECEPTORS FAI-FAI-FAI-FAILING sure enough you suddenly couldn't see but What am j doing? WAR-WARNING WARN-ER-ERROR- SYSTEM- SYSTEM-AC-ACTIVATE S-STAS-STASIS!!! What? CRASH!!!!!
