There was a brilliant flash of light, and then Omar found himself hurtling through a planet's outer atmosphere.
He sat there preplexed, wondering what had just happened to him for a long time, and then the slow realization came to him that this wasn't Earth he was looking at. He begun to panic as his breathing picked up and his radio maydays were gone unnoticed. Warning signals flared inside his ship as he realized that his main engine was unresponsive, Omar's training kicked in and he begun conducting damage control and repairs as fast as he could from the cockpit.
As the planet's surface came into relief however, he understood that he wouldn't be able to fix the spacecraft in time. He pulled back hard on his joystick and searched for a reachable area he could set his bird down in. To his massive luck, there was a grassy clearing to the south, and he headed towards it.
The plane barely held together, with the hydraulics completely failing in the last possible second. Omar couldn't decelerate the plane enough as he came in for the landing, and his landing gear took a rough, hard first touch with the ground.
The breaks kicked in and the plane screeched loudly as it attempted to bring itself to a halt. The space-craft's front wheel came off and the plane lurched forwards, slamming into the ground.
The safety harnesses Omar was attached to couldn't save him form the brutal force of the landing, and he was thrown into the controls at his front, cracking the visor on his helmet. All went black after that.
