May 23 2057 USS Vanguard Officer John Banks,
Our system diagnostics went well today, we found a new planet we named it xerxes-7
We decided to make landing when all of a sudden red lights illuminated the whole ship aiko went over the speakers “Brace for impact!” i ran to the cockpit and our ship was nosediving into the planet i buckled in and the ship made contact gravity forced me forward and the seat belt caught me. Aiko looked back at me from his seat and said “holy shit” his face was bloodied i noticed we were hanging upside down i put my hand on the buckle and released it i fell to the ground with a thud and slowly stood up aiko unbuckled and landed perfectly “wait where’s bill?” shit i thought i walked though the rest of the ship occasionally stepping on glass until i found him on the ground with blood coming out of his head “aiko get over here now!” aiko ran over and saw him he rushed to his side and started examining him “he’s alive” he then after a minute said “i can get him fully recovered” i let out a sigh of relief i walk to the crew quarters and kai is in his dog kennel whining i opened the gate and he jumped into my arms “hiya buddy” aiko was in the doorway “ here” he tossed me a small radio “thanks i’m going outside to check on the engines”
Aiko retorted “then you’ll need this” and throws me a flashlight “it’s night but watch out this planet has animals “that’s why i have this” i said while holding a nano pistol and i holstered the moment aiko said “yeah sure that will help” i made my way out of the ship and made my way around the vessel “dammit the engines are fried” i turned around and there’s a set of bright blue eye looking at me i put my hands on the pistol “hey can you help us”the creature walked slowly towards me i lifted my pistol “ stop!” the animal started sprinting the huge beast had large claws and blue skin and was covered in scales with four ram-like horns on his head i let off 1 shot and it deflected. “Well shit” i started running away from the ship and i started running across long grass until i found a cave there was a gap between some rocks i managed to scoot though and as soon as i made it in the monster’s claws grabbed my pant leg i yanked my leg away and fabric from it got stuck in the monster’s claw the monster let out a roar and walked away slowly i turned on my flashlight and turned around what i say made my jaw drop there was a skeleton with the same clothing as me i walked over to investigate it and found a holotape put it in my radio and ut start playing “i don’t know what happened to my crew there- there’s something wrong with them the have these bright blue eyes and there finger nails are getting bigger- one started growing horns, wait what’s that holy shit *screams*”
