Have you ever felt the feeling that your worst nightmare turned out real? It's one of the worse things, isn't it? It was my experience when I was looking into the six available world from my rank.

A rare poisonous creeping animal surprised me during a quiet moment and I fell into a deep hole losing my transmitter so I wasn't able to send my position to the ship to be rescued. My leg had got stuck under a huge rock; a very critical situation to escape from. Besides, it was getting dark.

Unfortunately, I was in a world with weather so changeable that it started pouring. Soon after, a heavy rain and strong winds filled the landscape which made me think so hard of a way to escape that I started losing my temper.
It's thought that explorers like me are always sentenced to death in such a situation.
Can you imagine it? The more water there was in the hole, the harder it became to get out. Everything was being covered by water quickly. It was maddening.

In spite of many attempts to release my leg, I didn't manage. Meanwhile, the water mixed with the dust covered my head. I thought I was about to die. Then a light shone through the water. I looked at where it came from. Surprisingly, it was from my ship. Its main brain had been looking for me because I'd been gone for a long time. I was rescued in the nick of time but better late than never.
