I've been stranded on planet 4546B for months. At least, that's what it feels like. In reality, it's only been a couple weeks.
I'm currently sitting on top of my escape pod to enjoy the warm sun. The Aurora recently exploded and I fixed the drive core with my nonexistent engineering credentials. Which means I've also experienced first hand what this planet has to offer.
Demon fish.
With a hefty sigh, I sit up and stretch my stiff limbs. "Sunbathing always makes me sleepy," I mumble while rubbing my tired e/c eyes. "Maybe going for a dip will help." My mask comes back on as I slide off the side of the life pod, landing in the water with a loud 'splash.' With a small smile, I pull out my sea glide and start my trek towards the aurora.
I've really come to enjoy studying the creatures on this planet; Even the plant life is interesting. I have scanned every possible thing I've come by so far. And I have no regrets.
As I grow closer to the giant ship, the ear piercing roars of a reaper leviathan fills my ears. I haven't scanned one yet. It's become my main mission to do so. Which is why I'm here, despite my PDA warning against it. I need to scan one, study it, see what makes it tick. Probably a dumb idea, but there's really nothing else to do here.
I quickly hide in some nearby creepvines, but instantly notice the seeds are becoming bioluminescent. 'What time is it?!' I internally screech before grabbing my PDA, groaning as I see it's time for the sun to set. 'Damnit! I need to get back before nightfall, or at least away from this area.'

You pull out your seaglide to find the battery is at 1%. "What? How?!" You cover the part of your mask where your mouth is and listen for any signs of danger. Everything is completely silent, eerily silent.
You gasp as something huge swims by you; It eventually lets out an ear piercing roar. "Reaper?! How is it in the kelp forest?!" You frantically swim down, trying to find a cave or somewhere to hide. The reaper hears you and roars again as it swims straight for you. You can only watch in terror and await your impending doom. It opens its mandibles, ready to grab you, when another reaper smashes right into the side of it. At first you thought it was an accident, but the other reaper opens its mandibles and takes a huge bite out of the first reaper. It roars out in pain as the other continues to bite and puncture it. It tries to fight back, but only ends up getting a mandible to the face. You gasp and watch it float, belly up. Tears begin to coat your eyes as you watch its lifeless body bleed out. Sure, it was going to eat you, but that's the circle of life. It didn't deserve to die like that.
The other reaper lets out a victorious roar and turns its attention to you. You try and swim away, but the reaper begins circling you. Almost like he's trying to figure out what you are, or figure out the best way to consume you. "Oxygen," Your PDA warns. You gasp again and swim for the surface, not caring about the giant creature below you. You break surface and gasp for air as your mask comes off. The night's cold breeze brushes past your skin, causing you to shiver.
