"What do you mean how do we land this thing?!" yelled the purple and blue hued android at their red and golden coloured counterpart. "I thought you had studied everything there was to know about starships so that we were prepared for this sort of scenario!"
Aegis huffed at Saber's diatride even as she worked on scanning the various monitors and control consoles. "I have, however those studies had yet to reach the stage of being capable of piloting a starship of this size and class, after it had been pre-programmed for a randomised set of multiple hyperspace jump co-ordinates, during one of which we would up within klicks of a star going supernova which in turn affected the-" she would have gone on had it not been for a new red beeping light on the central monitor.
"Now what?!" Saber moaned, heading over to the navigation display and starting to run the scans. "Oh that's just perfect! We're entering the damned planets atmosphere, at a less than ideal angle I'm guessing?!" she called over, Aegis quickly running over to confirm her combative counterparts analysis.
"That would be accurate. We'll need to divert power to the lower thrusters and forward shields in order to survive the re-entry process, however-" the red hued android stated, before their blue counterpart quickly began to set about doing just that. There was a sudden bucking motion which floored the pair of them, and caused a small crack in the green pod that they were carrying in the command bridge of the ship.
Saber was about to ask what was going on now before the ground met the ship and flung them all forwards and backwards, the pod slamming into a nearby wall and smashing open entirely. Liquid washed out like a wave, and dragged in its wake was a single reptillian shaped almost mechanical life form. A few moments passed by before all three of them got to their feet groggily and warily. "What happened?" the cerulean android asked.
"If you had let me finish, you would know that taking the course of action I had proposed would allow us to pass through the planets atmosphere safely, but we would not be in control of the descent afterwards." Aegis remarked, as she made her way over to the saurian and beginning an immediate check up of the creature. "Aurora appears to be no worse for the wear from the impact at least." she mused, the emerald green biomechanical reptile tilting its head curiously at her before nuzzling into her.
"So... in shorter words, we've crashed. Great..." grumbled Saber as they made their way to the navicomputer, or what was left of it, to check where it was they had landed. "And to top it all off, we're in the middle of a damned desert, on a planet named... Konats? Where the heck is Konats?" she asked, to which both Aegis and Aurora looked at Saber and shrugged in unison.
"Wherever it is, it's far enough away that Master Abzerute's enemies won't be able to locate us in short order. Which means we should have enough time to help Aurora reach a stage in their growth to become more self-sufficient and capable." the crimson android mused, the emerald bio-mechanical reptile in question tilting their head quizzically before catching the scent of something outside the ship and immediately surging outside in pursuit of the scent! They would burst out of the crashed wreck of their ship and let loose a territorial roar towards whatever was outside the ship!
