On the shores of the Cosmodrome was a hangar that was held by Guardians hired by Markys, who searched a place to hide. Arriving in strength aboard planes they crash-landed on the beach, the Titan named Vlad Ikarov and a group of 5 Guardians named Sagacious Guardians managed to drive away all Mercenaries and take control of the hangar's defense line. Vladimir was then greeted by the Kell, accompanied by 2 Guards, these same Fallen that were heard shouting during the battle while waiting to see the land clear of foes. Lorentis instructed Ikarov to go take a rest. The Titan saw 3 teams of 4 Vandals each led by a Captain storm through the gate. Moments later a big explosion bursted from the hangar and made a Colony Ship fall over and crush it. Then Markys' ship, the Ketch Me If You Can, was seen flying away swiftly. Vladimir Ikarov Was furious of the Kell's plan to bomb the hangar, ruining a part of the Cosmodrome. He then swore revenge and left, leaving the Kell to plan to counter the Rogue Titan's wrath; An Exo War Machine, replacing Ikarov.
