After wandering the halls for what Tommy guessed was about 20 minutes and multiple failed rooms he finally found the medbay. He rummaged through the drawers and cabinets until he amassed a collection that varied from bandages and disinfectant to gummy vitamins. He'd (somehow) managed to somewhat properly wrap his leg after using some disinfectant because he wasn't going to go through all this shit to die to an infection.
Still, if you asked Tommy how he would rate the experience, he would be very open about how he hopes he never has to fucking do it again.
Even through his mild regret, he shoved various items of medical supplies into his backpack which was slowly growing more and more full.
Slinging the bag over his shoulder, he walked into the hallway again, the wrapping and pressure on his leg reducing the pain. Now his mind set on finding food, because as great as Oreos are, he knew they wouldn't last long, and Tommy wasn't keen on dying to some random poisonous berry.
Halls had never seemed so fucking long.

"We're approaching the crash site, prepare for landing." The piglin conveyed to his fellow passengers.
Wilbur nodded to Techno a slight grin on his face. Normally, the trio was only sent on boring missions like escorting cargo ships and doing geological tests on unpopulated planets. Wilbur had managed to convince himself this was going to be an incredibly interesting asteroid. At first he had wondered if it was possibly a space craft but he had quickly dismissed the idea. Surely the incident directors would have been able to identify if it was a ship. All ships are legally mandated to have a chip in them that reports who their crew is and where their ship is from.
Wilbur also entertained the idea that it could possibly be and undiscovered species but that was just as impossible in his mind. The last time a species had been discovered and added to the Galactic Union was far before any of the people in the ship had been born.
And Phil is old as fuck.
"Hm, that's...odd." Techno mumbled, snapping Wilbur from his thoughts.
"What's up mate?" Philza asked, turning his flight chair to look out the front window.
"I was assuming it was an asteroid, but that...uh...looks a bit more structured."
Wilbur's head snapped to the window his eyes growing.
There's no way that's not a space craft.
And it's a primitive one at that.
Wilbur could barely keep himself in his seat as Techno completed the landing protocols. As soon as Phil confirmed they were good to go, Wilbur practically flew out of his seat. He threw his incident suit on (because Phil would probably skin him if he forgot) and rushed to the hatch, waiting for it to open. He was very disappointed when he remembered he had to wait for both his crew mates before he could open it.
"Hurry upppp!" Wilbur practically whined.
"Chill out Wil. Since when have you been this excited about and incident?" Techno asked, checking something on his wrist device, "The atmosphere's O2 content is stable enough for all of us and there are no concerning amounts of toxic gases."
Wilbur made a noise of confirmation, not fully focusing on the other man in the room. What could that ship possibly be? What could be on it? Would there be a new species? The structure of the ship was completely unfamiliar to him and while he wasn't the ship expert in the group, he had still seen his fair share.
He didn't want to think about the ratio of how many he was on as a crew member and how many he was a convict.
"PHILLLLLLLLLLL"
"Mate- give me 5 seconds-" Phil responded, sounding rather unamused.
Wilbur crossed his arms and waited. He wouldn't confirm he was pouting but he also wouldn't deny it. In his opinion, Phil's speed matched all the elderly jokes they made about him.
Finally, the elytrian entered the hatch room, a handled box in his hand that Wilbur recognized as a mini lab. Perfect for testing rocks and metals, useless for much else. Techno looked to the ship's captain and Philza responded with a nod. Techno typed something into a key pad and the hatch opened.
Wilbur was out before the hatch was even fully open, gliding the gap between the lowering metal and the planet's soil. He immediately headed towards the crash, despite the others telling him to wait for them. He approached the upturned soil that surrounded the crater and peered over the side.
It was glorious.
The structure and the materials that he could recognize were incredibly primitive, there was no way in the stars this was the ship of a species with a connection to the Galactic Union.
"Will, you little shit!" Phil called, landing beside him with a final flap of his wings, "What part of 'Wait for us, we don't know if it's dangerous' do you not understand?"
Wilbur barely registered the lecture he was receiving, far too entranced with the unfamiliar ship.
He heard a second pair of footsteps approaching, knowing it was Techno, he quickly launched his question.
"Tech, do you recognize the design from any planets? I know you're a lot more knowledgeable about ships." Techno could hear the excitement in the man's voice and he took a look at the wreck from the edge of the crater. His face twisted in confusion.
"Strange..." Techno trailed off, as if thinking.
Techno's confusion only excited Wilbur more.
"It has a slightly similar structure of extremely early Avian space craft but the materials look all off. It that aluminum?" Techno didn't even seem to notice he had quickly approach the craft during his investigation, "Aluminum... that's not right. Aluminum is so sparse in the area of the galaxy where Avians are from. On top of that, why would they be using such and old design?"
Wilbur couldn't contain the grin on his face as he heard the confusion in Techno's tone.
Could it really be a new species?
His eyes were draw to a large gash in the side of the ship, torn open by a boulder during the crash.
He also realized Philza was currently distracted with Techno, trying to formulate a theory.
Surely a peek wouldn't hurt.

Tommy had a bad feeling. He pushed aside as paranoia. I mean, who wouldn't be a bit paranoid on a strange planet that they know little to nothing about.
Tommy shook it off. He had finally found the canteen, and he hoped, the food storage.
