CRASH
Chapter One
The ion storm threw the small shuttle to the side, and Janeway was tossed from her seat like a rag doll. Chakotay glanced over quickly, worry etched on his face. She winced as the shuttle lurched again, and she was thrown against her seat. She finally regained her post, and began spouting information to Chakotay. He glanced at her again, and she, thinking herself unobserved, pressed a hand against her abdomen. When she pulled it away, it was covered in blood. Suddenly, her eyes widened.
"Chakotay, we're being pulled into the planet's atmosphere!" she cried, a slight note of panic in her voice. They descended in the clouds, and the shuttle hurtled toward the ground below. "Brace for impact!"

Kathryn opened her eyes and groaned. She had a horrible headache, and her chest hurt like hell. She sat up. She was several feet from her seat, and, as she looked around, she saw Chakotay lying, face-down, next to his own chair. She struggled to stand, and gasped as she felt a burning sensation in her chest. She dug through a pile of debris, coming up triumphantly with a medkit. She made her way to Chakotay's side and pulled out the tricorder. She switched it from her right hand to her left, realizing too late that her arm must be broken. It was bent at an unnatural angle, and was now beginning to hurt--very badly. Kathryn tried to ignore it, and ran a quick scan of the prone body before her. A concussion, a sprained wrist. Not too bad. She hooked her arms beneath his own and began dragging him from the remains of the shuttle. Her arm strongly protested to the movement, but she steadfastly kept it up until she thought they were far enough away to be safe from the hydrozine fumes. She sank down next to him, cradling her arm. Her head was pounding and her chest felt like she'd been stabbed. As the pain steadily increased, she gave in to the blessed darkness.
