The cockpit sparked violently, multiple flashing lights conveying the same message that things were not in good shape. Nox sat in the pilot seat and at the controls, his fingers wrapped around the sticks tightly enough that his knuckles would turn white underneath his glove. The Solus grunted as he used all his might to yank them upward, attempting his best to adjust the course of his craft as it fell straight into the atmosphere of a planet. Flames would scorch and flicker outside the window and across the body of it, the entire ship rumbling as it tried to remain intact.
With a hurried glance back, Nox took inventory of the crates that had been strapped down to the cargo floor behind him, his weeks of effort and contracts. They were all filled with seeds, medicine, weaponry, and other necessities for his clan. Somehow, he had been tracked by pirates and was able to scan what he had been carrying aboard. It resulted in a firefight that he had quickly lost due to being outnumbered before he was able to escape. His ship gave the last of its life in order for him to get out and it was evident as it could barely lift itself anymore and plummeted to the surface. Despite the obvious outcome that he could die, the only thing he could think about was getting those supplies back to his people.
As the ship broke through the clouds, a city would come into his view, completely overgrown by nature as it had retaken what had been lost. It had practically turned into a forest. As he continued to lose altitude, he realized that the buildings were actually multiple stories tall and stood right in his way. Shit... The Mandalorian muttered in mando'a as he still yanked the controls as far back as he could, realizing what would happen. Thankfully and possibly blessed by Kad, with whatever sliver of life that still resided in it, the ship managed to tilt upwards as the sputtering engines gave some resistance so it wasn't a straight dive.
Instead of hitting the ground, the side of the craft would strike into a building, an explosion of brick, mortar, dirt, and plants as the sound echoed throughout the entire city. The ship would then crash on the top of a small building, dragged by momentum across the roof before it simply fell and into the middle of the street, cracks forming across the ground from the weight. The window had shattered, the cockpit filled with dust and dirt as Nox would be completely covered in a layer from head to toe. If it hadn't been for his helmet, his skull would have most likely cracked from how it had been thrashed around. He was slumped forward on top of the controls, a few moments passing until he woke up with a gasp as he patted himself down to check that he was still alive.
Nox's world was spinning and somehow he managed to undo his buckle. An attempt to stand was made but instead, he simply rolled over and fell toward the ground with a thud. With a groan, he slowly pushed himself to all fours, one hand of his being pressed against his helmet as he tried to steady himself.
