"Alright Men, we're heading down to Zebes. We are here to keep a science team safe so they can secure artifacts and collect data on the local wildlife." Sgt. Basilone screamed into the ship waking up the sleeping marines. "Great, another babysitting job," Pvt. Puller said with a snarky tone. "Shut it Puller!" Basilone had yelled back getting Puller to snap into attention. "I'm guessing we get no live ammo," Cpl. Daly asked. "We don't have any on the ship, nor are we going to be using any" LCpl. Leland quietly said. "Can you speak up powder monkey." Puller had blurted out rudely. "We have no live ammo," Leland had yelled at Puller. "Hey where is Lance coconut Foss." PFC. Smeldy asked. "Didn't he say, he went to replace the fu-" Daly was cut off as the electricity had turned off. A fading voice was heard as the source went down the hallway and it said one solitary word "FOSS!" After a few minutes the electricity had come back on. "Ok the mission is still on" Basilone screamed into the ship. A man with raven black hair and shiny red eyes in a Galactic federation marine uniform had walked to the place all the others where. "Hey Cpl. Gurei decided to join the party," Puller had yelled out. "I heard the ruckus what the hell is going on out here." "Foss accidentally cut the power for a bit and we panicked." Daly replied.
A few hours later The ship made contact with the hot dry surface of the alien landmass. The ship's powerful engines churning up dust until finally the engines shut down, and a small ramp opens downwards on to Zebes.
"Lets move out." Sgt Basilone said as the ramp opened up. All of the marines walked onto the surface Of Zebes carefully observing the canyon they had landed in. "This sure is interesting," Daly stated while observing the strange rock formations. "Looks like the place was cut in to forming this kind of, square pit we're in." Puller said. "We'll have plenty of time to look at the pretty landforms we've gotta find a entrance to the deeper parts of the planet." Dr. Madison blurted out. "Well, the scientist is right, if we go by samus's mission report surface of Zebes is a bit hot for most during day so they are in the caves almost all the time," Foss said with a slight tone of sombre. As even though he knew that the caves where were the scientists wanted to go he really wanted to sit in the canyon and ponder what kind of great thing or event had made such a perfect square canyon. "I've never been here but it feels… Familiar," Gurei said quietly to himself while trekking across the barren rock. "HEY GUYS I FOUND A CAVE ENTRANCE." Smeldy yelled at the other marines. "Hey he's right I see it too," Puller said running to the shady hole in the wall. The marine and scientists where both dashing over to the cave, mainly for the fact that the alien sun had worn them out, and they were happy to see some shade to sit down in. A few minutes had passed and everyone was at the shady cave. "It's getting dark, It's too far away to go back to the ship, we're gonna have to set up camp around this cave." Dr. Blackwell suggested. " Don't worry about it we came prepared," Foss exclaimed while pulling some things out of his bag.
A few minutes had passed, and the day had already faded away. The warm blue color of the sky was replaced with the black cold scenery littered with millions of small specs of light from far away stars. The small team had already set up a small campsite by the cave entrance, and had lit a campfire. "Hey Gurei, you alright, you've been awfully quiet," foss asked. "I'm fine, it's just i've never been here, and it feels…. Familiar," Gurei said in a unsure tone."Well how does that make any sense?" Smedley exclaimed. "I don't know," Gurei said. Exhausted, the marines all went to bed.
