Back inside the jet, the atmosphere was tense with hurried activity.
"Should we open the hatch?" one voice called out, laced with urgency.
"What's the radiation level?" another voice followed, clearly concerned.
"Environmental pressure is stable, but... what 'is' this place? Is it even Earth?" someone muttered, half in disbelief, staring at the readings.
The crew rushed around, their movements frantic as the jet descended, landing softly on a patch of green grass.
The sight outside was almost surreal—lush, untouched by the devastation they had expected.
Everything about it felt alien, despite its serene appearance.
"Are we sure it's safe?" one of the crew members asked, eyes glued to the screen.
"Only one way to find out," someone answered grimly, hand hovering over the hatch release.
Thud!
The ground trembled violently beneath the jet, a low rumble that quickly turned into a seismic upheaval.
