Cado
Crash Time
Cado had been flying through the empty vacuum of space for what felt like to him weeks. It was long and boring, he slept the majority of the time in the pressurized cabin of the ship. He was still surprised that I had made it this far. At first site, you would think the ship itself was on its last leg. Every now and then Cado would peer out the glass and stare off into space. He had never seen something so amazing before. After all he had never even been in a space ship. This was the beginning of a new life for him. He hoped ,finally making it back to his mother’s home planet, may open up new opportunities for him. Make new friends, and make a better living than what he had on Konats.
After another brief nap, cado would look out the glass and see the ship heading for the large blue and green planet. “ So this is earth, looks more promising that Konats so far.” A smile would cross his lips as the ship seems like it creeps towards the planet. Soon enough though, the ship would start to descend towards the surface of the huge planet.
As the ship started through the atmosphere, cado’s ship would engulf into flames, the friction against the hull was heating up. It was decently protected and kept the majority of the heat off of his body inside the ship. Across the sky of planet earth, you could see a trail stretching across the sky as the hull burnt. Cado would start to hit buttons, trying to make the ship slow down and land. It wasn’t slowing down. It seemed that on reentry, the wires began to melt and short circuited under the hull on the outside.
Few seconds later the ship crashed into the earth’s surface. Splashing down close to one of the islands on the southern part of the planet. The space craft hit the water and burst of steam erupted from the surface as the ship dived under from its speed on entry. Luckily the air inside kept it buoyant enough to propel it to the ocean’s surface. Cado unstrapped the belt off of him, brought his fist back and hit the canopy door, knocking it off. He grabbed his stuff and jumped out as the ship slowly started to sink into the ocean.
Cado looked around from the air and flew over to a small island where he would land on the sandy beach.
“So this is planet earth” he would say. Guess its time to look around the place and see what it has to offer.
