Thread: Unexpected Detour (Razgriz x Wingshadow)

Sam's face turned red when she returned his compliment and told him she couldn't wait to have him meet her parents. Hehe, thanks. I'm just trying to make a good impression on your folks. I really do want them to like me. He listened with increasing surprise on his expression as Rachel explained how her father was actually trying really hard to make the house presentable for him when he arrived the news definitely caught him off-guard. Well, I'll be on my best behavior, I want to show him that I genuinely love you for who you are and that the fact you're a flawless jaw-dropper is a very nice bonus. He then chuckled when she stuck out her tongue away from the screen and then explained, Heh, that's alright. I just hope he doesn't make them at me. But I'm glad your parents are at least giving me a chance. It definitely took some convincing, but I think they'll see me as a good man after tonight. He then sighed and said happily, Rachel, I can't wait to see you again. I'm getting close to you now I have to turn off the video now before I can re-enter normal space. He then put his face to the monitor and said, I love you, Rachel. With all my heart and soul. And with that, the video call ended on a romantic note. Little did Rachel and Sam know that this would be the last time they saw each other, perhaps for eternity. He was traveling through the danger zone after all it was the most direct sub-space path from his previous stop to her house. And even though his design engineers warned him he shouldn't, he told them not to worry and that everything would be fine. As soon as he switched off the video channel, his craft re-entered normal space unexpectedly. His body jolted forward at the sudden deceleration the anti-gravity force column kicked in as expected. It was like an air bag without the bag, but able to stop the massive energy that came with suddenly dropping from subspace without the initial slowdown and without hurting the occupants one bit. What the hell? he stated that wasn't supposed to happen. At least his craft still worked maybe it just needed to cool down. He ran a diagnostics check and saw that the sub-space singularity generator was offline. A common problem that was easily remedied by letting it cool down. He was about to call Rachel and let her know what was going on when an alert displayed STRUCTURAL FAILURE DETECTED IN PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. EXPLOSIVE DECOMPRESSION IMMINENT. BI-LAYER SEALING, PLEASE FIND NEAREST SUITABLE PLANET AND LAND FOR REPAIRS. ENGAGING ENVIRO-SUIT ENCLOSURE. ALL COMMUNICATIONS OFFLINE TO PRESERVE POWER, SUGGEST RE-ACTIVATING COMM ARRAY ONCE CRAFT HAS LANDED OH COME ON! Sam yelled frustratedly as the goo-like material seemed to grow out of the seat and enclose him in a bubble. This was another innovation of his company suits that literally grew to fit whoever was in the car in case they traveled in space, even the family pet. They came with an advanced oxygen recycling system that took the CO2 people breathed out and converted it into breathable oxygen however, this was only meant to last a day, two at most. He then pressed a button on the dash to activate a small beacon what he didn't know was that the beacon launcher was inactive due to a faulty circuit. Sam ran a scan of the current quadrant, looking for a place to touch down his scans revealed a planet nearby. A quick scan revealed an Earth-type atmosphere and at that he quickly calculated a descent path that would ease the stress on the frame of the craft itself. As he approached the atmosphere he noticed a large debris field there were humans here. That was good for him, that meant he could at least get a ride to Rachel's house. There wasn't a soul in the civilized world that didn't know his name, even if he didn't brag. He noticed that there were several heavy storms blocking certain paths as he descended further and further. He eventually touched down in a very deserted, wide open grassy plains-like area area, clearly frustrated at what happened. He then opened the door of his spacecraft, his enviro-suit serving to protect him from potential atmospheric hazards. After running scans from the ESD Environment Safety Determiner on his wrist, he found no contaminants in the air and that it had the exact same gas mix as Earth itself. He sighed frustratedly he punched in the spatial coordinates of where he was and found nothing. The map showed no data on this planet hell it didn't show a planet at all. There was nothing reported here, and it was updated only an hour ago. So then what was up with the debris field when he entered the atmosphere? Very strange. What was worse was that no communications were available when he tried to reach Rachel or anyone for that matter great, he'd landed one of the few dead zones in the universe. He then realized how hot he was getting in this suit and decided to take it off. It was best that he didn't have to wear the suit for now he pressed on a button on his waist belt and let the suit retract into a small cylinder for future use. He decided to grab the two other things that he needed his Ruganeer Mk VI Phased Plasmite Pistol, a device capable of generating energy bolts up to 20000 degrees in temperature, and a golf-sized hypercube containing a tent and a few other survival supplies that he stuck into his pants pocket. If there was one thing that life taught him it was to be as prepared as you could be. He just grumbled in frustration, So much for dressing up. This is fan-freakin'-tastic. But at least I'm not dead. Hopefully there's a town nearby that debris means there has to be humans. The map must just be glitchy is all. Unfortunately, he had no idea where to go nor of the huge mistake he made by landing here. Lol, let's see what's behind door 1!
