"That's enough out you" Marcus mumbled, turning off the logging data. The horizon of the planet he orbited grew larger and larger as his altitude began to fall. Warnings flashed everywhere in the escape pod as the computer began to plot a entry route. 

"Warning, dangerous trajectory detected, activate thrusters for 4.7 minutes and adjust angle to 45 degrees for more optimum re-entry angle." Marcus did as the computer said, but the thrusters cut out short. The pod had been damaged during the blast from the ship, causing the pod to leak propellant the whole time he was adrift. The computer once again repeated its warning. "Warning, dangerous trajectory detected, G-Forces potentially fatal,fire-" Marcus now simply ignored the warning, as it was out his hands now. Only moments later the escape pod made contact with the planets atmosphere and began to shake violently. Flames began to lick around the pod as the friction of the air began to grow as the craft went deeper into the atmosphere. Soon the entire ship was covered in re-entry flames as it hurdled towards the surface. Marcus attempted to slow his decent as he reached 20,000 feet by deploying the air brakes, but only seconds later did one of the flaps break off, causing him to go into a spiral. Despite the death spin, he retracted the flaps and straightened the pod just in time to bounce off the side of a cliff. before slamming into beach. The pod tumbled chaotically before finally coming to a stop on its side. Any organic life would have probably had their bones broken or organs liquefied by the sheer impact, but for Marcus.... well.... it was probably the best landing he had ever preformed. 

Marcus cut himself out the harness and pulled himself up. The windshield was blackened and he could hear the sizzling of the pod. He walked over the rear hatch and hit the explosive bolts, blowing off the door. Grabbing his gear, he stepped out the pod to be greeted by what probably was a pristine beach, but now a burnt trench of blackened sand and glass now scarred the beach. He gave an internal sigh and began to scan the area.
