Rough but lucky

Marcus falls down the shoot and is directed into one of the many escape pods before it was ejected out away from the ship along with waves of other pods as they start to rush down towards to the planet bellow. As they rush towards the planet a few are hit by debris but most are actually being shot down by the pirate ships, by sheer luck the pod Marcus is in is hidden by a chunk of the engine, as other pods were exploding around him Marcus dived down into the planets atmosphere to crash along with the debris.
