"Wait from what I learnt...the ship chooses the planet from the database right, of the mapped earth
like planets... and their coordinates??!" Taehyung inquires.
"Yes...but there's an extra mechanism for situations like these...sometimes the heat signature and
the magnetic field mapping is used to determine the habitable planets close by.... I guess maybe
that's why we could land here...!" Jimin offers.
"Hmm..." Taehyung's still thinking greatly.
"I think it's the second case then...because this planet is just PERFECT...it's gravity almost 89% of
earth's, Oxygen is around thirty five percent, don't worry, it won’t lead to oxygen toxicity, we can
burn few woods...there's a lot of thermal signature of natural vegetation, prominent magnetism, but
are quadrupole rather than dipole so we might face few storms randomly...I mean, before we figure
out the winds... and natural radiation levels are quite low. Since we are around a K type star, we
are good to explore...!" Taehyung quickly reports in a deep loud voice.
"Copy that..." Jimin orders.
"Baby bun...what's your status?" Taehyungs speaks into the mic connected to the whole spaceship.
"The fuel engine is damaged and needs repair, in fact we need a lot more fuel if you wish to fly.
The main nozzle, it's torn to pieces at places, there are holes 1cm to 10cm long. And the excess
oxygen will oxidize the exposed parts real quickly if we don't start moving and start the repair.
Actually...we just can't...we don't have the material...I am disconnecting the nozzle to reduce the
weight of the ship...!"
"No, don’t...ten people can sleep inside that...you don't know when it would be useful...keep it...!"
Taehyung butts in.
"Ahhhhh...it's Fucking useless, it's toxic Kim Tae hyung...you can't use it as an umbrella or a pipe
as you assume it to be!! So... release procedure activating in 3...2...1..." There's a huge sound of a
metal hitting the ground that sends a wave of shock through the ship itself rippled through the
ground. The gigantic nozzle is detached as it falls and rolls over the ground, a few meters away.
The ship has been designed to operate independently with each of its components. The storage
room, the data room, the living room and the controls room with the mainframe are all secured
with redundancy systems independently. The different parts of the ship can be detached and be
converted into a furnished working house on a planet.
The ship can still be used for cruising through a planet but can't lift off out of planet anymore as
that requires high ****** forces. This meant only one thing, they are stuck on this planet forever
with the current technology they are possessing.
Taehyung sighs defeated.
"Ohhk…so guys, I am ready with the strategy...Jungkook over to the station quick!!" Jimin orders.
"I am done...now everything is controlled by this tiny device...which I am placing inside this water
and bullet proof case but can be accessed anyway... " Yoongi carries out the procedure as he places
a tablet-like thing into a four inches thick box that is radiation, water, ice and shock wave resistant.
"There..." Yoongi smirks in victory as he holds up with a triumphant expression only for it to be
snatched by Jungkook who examines it turning it around.
"Now...I carry it...!" he declares.
"Of course, kid...you carry it…!" Yoongi flashes his gummy smile which radiates happiness.
Taehyung glares at him with disgust. How utterly ungrateful he was for all the work Yoongi
apparently did and took it into his hands as if it's his.
"WHAT? I am the captain of this ship if you forgot already!!" Jungkook smirks with questioning
eyes.
"Of course, captain..." Taehyung flashes his teeth in an awkward manner. Damn Jungkook's
immense confidence, he looks so hot with that adding to his charms.
"Jimin… briefing...please!"
"Yes Captain. Salvos, Day 1, planet Moira, we landed around 34 minutes ago, Critical damages
include main engine nozzle, fuel tank and front shield covered with dust. No clear visuals of the
planet. Habitable environment confirmed. Solar shields are up and efficiency remains at seventy
percent. Copy that.
We are going to do our first walk on the planet Moira in a few minutes. The missions for the day
include, cleaning up the front glass shield, finding a place as a habitat that can reduce the
dependency on the ship. Find a water source as soon as possible along with identification of
plausible food resources. Copy that."
"That's a lot to do for the day!!" Yoongi sighs exasperated.
"Why did you name the planet Moira...?!" Taehyung asks amusedly with widened eyes.
"That's for you to find out...darling!" Jungkook gloats over Taehyung's cluelessness.
"Aren't you such an asshole Bunny??!" Taehyung retorts.
"Guys...we need to work together...ok...both of you will go look for water and food sources if there
are any and also carry a radiation meter with you!! Yoongi and I will clean up the ship...hmm...all
clear...!!"
"Yeah yeah...get to work guys...the sooner we start, the faster we finish! Darling, get a
spectrometer; you are not going to sniff water for god’s sake!!" Jungkook orders Taehyung.
"I was getting it anyway. I would like to put it out to Salvos and the crew that I am not at all
comfortable with the endearment of “darling” even if you wanna **** me hard...."
"Are you done darling??" Jungkook deadpans but has already pulled the lever, so before Taehyung
retorts, the shield is already opening up, with a huge siren giving the first clear visuals of the
planet. They are in the transfer zone where the vehicle and the surroundings are connected through
a passage which shuts on one side and opens on another to prevent any contamination.
They are all wearing the head gear with smallest oxygen tank, until it's deemed to be really safe for
breathing. Jungkook steps down the ramp first as he steps his foot over the planet's soil for the first
time. A victorious smile curls upon his lips as he looks ahead towards the lush green vegetation
shining in all its glory, a sight for the sore eyes.
The smile falters within seconds as a huge gust of wind reaches their ears, it's amplitude steadily
increasing. It was coming closer, faster.
"Everyone, back to the ship...all shields close in 30 seconds." Jimin and Yoongi who are still at the
beginning of the ramp run inside along with Taehyung and Jungkook securing into the main deck
and strapping themselves to the seat as they wait for the impact.
"Salvos...what are the stats?" Jungkook screams.
"It's the storms I was talking about...!" Jimin cries.
"Tornado, negative pressure of nine hundred hectopascals...impact in 23 seconds, velocity of
300km/hr." Salvos replies.
"We are gonna die...!!"
"Ohh…for god’s sake Taehyung...this ship can resist until 1000 hectopascal.... it’s just gonna cross
us and... " the impact has already started making Jungkook's voice die in between the loud
warnings.
The main frame buzzer blows into life again as the ship is again painted in deep red, signifying the
panic the crew is going through.
"Hold TIGHT EVERYONE!" Jungkook cries one last time before the eye impacts them and they
can feel that they are floating, their ship is lifted for a few seconds, but it hits the ground after
twelve seconds with a loud thud.
Taehyung's eyes widen as he gulps at the sight in front of them. Everyone is catching their breaths,
huffing, as they slowly open their eyes.
"Guys...GUYS...LOOK AT THAT..." Taehyung breathily shrieking as he points his hand towards
the front shield whose glass is cleared of the dirt with the Tornado weathering it away. As the
colloidal dust settles, a sight that stops everyone's breath comes into sight.
"Impossible...." Jungkook whispers which rings loudly in the utter silence that ensues after the
passing of the tornado.
"Technically... you know it's just the probability is minute...not that..." Taehyung starts to tease
Jungkook with his deep voice, but he cuts him off.
"I know...I freaking know...but this is...." Jungkook takes a deep breath.
A few moments of silence follow.
"Baby bun...wanna go on an adventure with me?" Taehyung breathily asks in excitement but more
as a joke.
"This may surprise you darling...but YES!!" Jungkook answers exhilarated, devouring the vision in
front of him.
