Chapter 2: The Landing

After two weeks of flying through space, the Saiyan space pod finally reaches Earth's atmosphere. The pod crashes into a wooded forest and creates a crater. The pod opens and Riktor steps out. First, he marvels at the surroundings. The beautiful trees, a waterfall in the distance, and the enchanting wildlife. Second, he goes back into the pod and tells his brother, Meizu to stay put with Bomi. Riktor climbs out of the crater and goes to search for food for the boys had run out of rations in the ship and they were hungry.

Riktor heads into the woods for some game. While walking around he realizes that if he wanted to find some animal to kill he would have to sneak up on it. So he decided to climb one of the tall brown things with green things at the top. He didn't know what to call them because he had never seen trees before. So Riktor climbs a tree surprisingly well for a boy his size and age.

He climbs to a branch high above the ground and peels his eyes for prey. He waits for about 30 minutes until he spots a brown creature with horns in the distance. A deer. He stands on his branch and jumps to a another one in a nearby tree. He hops from tree to tree until he is in the tree right above the deer. He makes sure that he is quiet as not to startle the creature. He then jumps from the tree onto the deer and puts it in a choke hold. The deer bucks and kicks and finally Riktor squeezes with all his might and he snaps the neck of the deer. Killing it.

He grabs it by the antlers and begins to drag the corpse back to the space pod. When he makes his way through a bush and to the edge of the crater he sees a giant creature clawing at the space pod. A bear. Meizu and Bomi are inside wondering what the creature wants. But before they can find out Riktor attacks the beast.

Riktor jumps from the edge of the crater and lands on the back of the bear. He grabs at the fur and yanks it backwards. The bear moves away from the pod and falls onto its back crushing Riktor. The bear rolls off and Riktor is flat on the ground dazed from the crushing. The bear stands on its hind legs and looks as tho it is about to stomp on the dazed Saiyan. Before the bear does tho, Meizu opens the pod door and jumps out at the bear. Meizu headbutts it in the ribs and the bear goes down. Meizu sits on the ground holding his head in pain.

The bear gets back up and swats at the tiny Saiyan and sends Meizu flying back at the pod. Riktor wakes back up and sees his brother in pain from the bear and he charges the beast and jumps up and uppercut it right under the chin. The bear flies back and goes unconscious. Then Riktor suffocates the bear by squeezing its throat.

Riktor goes to check on his little brother. "Are you ok, Meizu?"

Meizu nods while he rubs where he got hit by the bear. "Good." Riktor says.


That night, the boys got to eat a deer and a bear. Then they slept in the pod and at the first sign of day light Riktor exited the pod and went to find something resembling a rope. He found a green version of what he was looking for. Vines. He took the vines back to the pod and wrapped the vines around the pod and then wrapped the other ends around himself. Riktor then began to climb out of the crater pulling the pod behind him. He struggled immensely and it took him almost an hour to pull the thing out. He rests for a second and then begins pulling the pod through the woods to try to find a more suitable place to stay. Little did they know that they would soon come upon someone we all know.
