Arkfall

"SHIT!!!!" Xanthiana swerved the car out of the way as a large piece of ark wreckage smashed into the ruins of the highway directly in front of her. She slammed on the brakes and swung the car to the side, she could hear the tires spinning and failing to grip what was left of the road. She narrowly avoided the crashed ark wreckage and ended up putting the car into a ditch. The smoking wreckage in front of her did not lookinviting or safe. Whatever it had been in orbit it was now a twisted metal ruin which could have something good or bad inside of it.

The car was pretty well stuck in the ditch, Xanthiana tried to get it out by throwing it in reverse but she was going nowhere fast. She frowned at the steering wheel, she was about a hundred miles north of paradise and didn't know of any locals who could help her with the car. She also knew that ark's tended to bring out ark hunters, and other local scum. Not to mention whatever was in the ark itself.

"Sorry about that Xan I didn't have my ark tracker online." Xanthiana couldn't be too angry with the AI, the only reason it had gotten as sloppy as it had been was because of her interference and humanizing the device to herself.

"Next time a little more warning than arkfall imminent." Xanthiana's neck hurt from the sudden stop, but she'd deal. She was just glad she had started wearing her seat belt or things could have been a lot worse. She opened the car door and surveyed the site. The wreckage was letting of a huge plume of smoke alerting just about anyone in the area to its crash site. It looked like part of a ship instead of a full ship, but Xanthiana wasn't the best at determining votan ships to begin with despite having traveled on one.

"I'm updating my files to reflect that, do you want to check it out?" Xanthiana had her rifle out, it wouldn't do much good inside the cramped quarters of the wreck, but it was the only weapon she had bullets for.

"Not really no, this always feels like tomb robbing to me, but better us than the next asshole, so I guess we'll be going in." She made her way to what looked like an access point and took a deep breath, she really didn't like stepping back on the ark ships, it reminded her of a lot of bad memories.

"Scans on full, good luck Xan." And into the belly of the beast Xanthiana went.
