The holographic display by this point was starting to metaphorically burn a hole into the retinas of Daniel’s eyes. As he keyed in more input on planet’s economic stability and notable difficulties with colonization. Sighing as he stopped for a moment to scratch the side of his head. This has been the last two weeks, at least in terms of this planet’s gravitational pull, of Daniel’s life. Exploring the planet, studying life forms on the planet, and finding particular points of interest for later studies of larger groups. The Galaxy Garrison, despite Daniel’s tireless work to give them more than enough data about the planet. They’ve sent him back the official notice he needed to spend another two weeks of Earth time to get more data on particular life forms.
“GAH!” Finally Daniel screamed, grasping the sides of his head with both hands. His left eye twitching slightly. “Why am I still here?! Why do I still need to get them data what is everything I gave them not good enough?! WHY AM I TALKING TO MYSELF?!” Daniel cursed up to the roof of the large tent he has been living in ever since arriving in a small one man craft. Standing up Daniel flailed his arms around a little before stopping. Trying to regain his sanity as he lifted up his goggles. Rubbing his eyes with both of his hands as he put them back on. They were his prescriptions after all.
It was ironic that Daniel was slowly going insane over the very reason he joined the Galaxy Garrison in the first place. Sure, Daniel would much rather be on this new planet than back in that little English town. Probably working at a hydro-petrol station like his brother. Still, even given this planet’s really beautiful jungle like climate. There was only so much of it someone can see until they would like to move on.
Suddenly though the sound of grass getting rustled outside caught Daniel’s attention, he had some more casual clothes on. Not being able to even bother wearing his Galaxy Garrison uniform anymore. Daniel paused, listening closely trying to make heads or tails of it. The planet didn’t have very many creatures that would even be considered the size of an average household pet dog. Even then, those that were, they were all herbivore. Whatever was outside though didn’t sound like it fit any creature he’d seen on the planet yet. Worse, Daniel swore he could hear someone talking. The planet didn’t have any notable advance life forms on it....
Suddenly the closed covering of his tent was opened. With a trio of purple haired human like creatures all coming in. Brandishing weapons that Daniel didn’t recognize, but because they looked like rifles, he wasn’t going to assume anything good. Quicking holding his hands up with a scared yip of fear, Daniel immediately began sweating bullets.
Suddenly though one of the creatures started talking. Very aggressively, jabbing the end of the rifle like device at Daniels’ chest. Making him give a small “Oww...” whine. “Uh listen... you speak? You speak this language? Language I am speaking now?” Daniel asked cautiously, pointing at his own mouth. The creatures all looked at him funny. So Daniel now felt scared, frightened, and mildly embarrassed.
The creatures started to speak to one another, occasionally glancing back at Daniel who was too scared to move. Even if he did, Daniel didn’t have much on him to defend himself with. Only things that can shock and defend against animals. Which only make Daniel’s new ‘friends’ really crossed by Daniel’s assumption.
The creatures chuckled among one another, finally one brought his rifle back up to Daniel, who could only squeak in fear. “Uh...” Daniel had no idea what to do, and was scared to the point of feeling like he was going to faint at any moment.
