*1000 hr*
I go down into the lifepod Caleb follows right behind me. We start looking through everything we have. We found 2 full nutrient bars, two 30oz water bottles,2 closets with 5 different sizes of wetsuits with goggles and other clothes, and two flares.
In the back of the chairs we find 2 PDA system tablets with portable watches connected to them. We prick our fingers so the tablet has our DNA in it's system. "Hello " both of the tablets say when Caleb and I put our DNA in the system. I tap my screen causing it to explain my situation more "You have suffered minor head trauma. This is considered an optimal PDA has now rebooted in emergency mode with one directive: to keep you alive on an alien world. Please refer to the database for detailed survival advice. Good luck."
The PDA system finished and shut down. I go to the closet and grab a wetsuit that is all black with red accents in my size. I strip down to my boxers, laying my other clothes on my chair. I put the wetsuit on and adjusted it to my body. "We aren't going anywhere with the stuff we have on here, and we don't have the time for the PDA system to scan the planet" I say to Caleb who is messing with his PDA.
I unlock the bottom hatch and open it up so the hatch is now pointing upwards making it easy to just slip out into the ocean. I put on the PDA watch and slip into the ocean below me. I hold on to the edge of the hatch and slip my goggles on. With my goggles, wetsuit, and watch on I inhale deeply and drive under the water surface.
I swim down about 20 meters avoiding the creatures that get close to me. I allow the watch to run a diagnostic on the water as I stay under the surface. Most of the creatures that swim by me look mostly harmless and unaware of what I am. It would be easy to catch them if I need to.
I watch the watch's progress bar on the diagnostic. 99%...100% when the bar finishes the watch makes some sound that i couldn't understand under the water. The screen of the watch goes black and two black earbuds pop out of the side of the watch. I quickly grab the earbuds and swim back through the hatch. I climb up back into the lifepod.
"It is really beautiful down there." I explain to Caleb as I attach the watch back to the PDA tablet letting it go over the grabs his tablet and hands it to me "that top recording happened when you first drove under the water" I tap on the replay button "The Aurora suffered orbital hull failure. Cause: unknown." I hand the tablet back to Caleb and sigh. "Well great…" I say leaning back against the wall. I just close my eyes taking in the news from the PDA slowly sinking into my own thoughts.
A loud beeping noise tore me away from my thoughts. I look at my chair that has my PDA on it. The PDA's screen has an outline of red and is beeping. I walk over and grab the tablet, tapping on the screen.
"Water is stable and creatures are safe to eat with the modification already set in the fabricator" the PDA says while a screen of the creatures pops up with the desired use of it written below each picture. I set the tablet back down and disconnect the watch once more putting it back on my arm. I open up the fabricator and check for any problems pleased to find none.
"Okay so here is what we know so far. The Aurora is out of commission, I have a 2 slight injuries but we are lucky you have none, we have emergency food and water in the storage, there are extra wet suits and clothes in the closets. We both have functional PDA systems with watches, our fabricator works but our radio system is broken.
We know the water is safe and so are the creatures listed on here" I hand Caleb my tablet "also we know what the uses are for these creatures. Biggest problem we have is we do not know where anyone else is or is they are okay. " I finish talking and lean against the wall once more watching Caleb take in all the information.
"Well we have a lot to do so how about we take it one day at a time? I'll work with the PDA and see if I can get any use out of this radio and watch out for flares from other lifepods. Do you want to collect some food and water for us?" Caleb ask as he hands back my tablet. I grab the tablet and set it down on my chair after another glance at the list. "Yeah that sounds good to me" I say as I put my goggles back on my head and put the earbuds in my ears.
