[u][i] The Legend Begins - Revised[/i][/u] [b]On a cold, calm night in Old Russia, Cosmodrome...[/b] "Hunt... What's the time?" The Guardian asked his Ghost. His Ghost appeared in a flash of blue light next to the Guardian. "18:34, anything else you need, Rush?" Hunt asked, looking around the Cosmodrome perimeter. Rush sighed, taking his Handcannon, Hawkmoon and stowing it. "Nothing to kill..." He boringly said scouting the area around him. "I guess we should just head back to Tower, talk to Cayde. I trailed off when he assigned me something." "Yes sir, bringing in the ship to the Transmat Zone now... Honestly we should go to different places other than Russia." Hunt sighed, tired of seeing the Cosmodrome every time they traveled. "Hunt, you know how much I love scenery..." Rush spoke to his Ghost, looking at a riverbed over the edge. "It's just... Nice. Alright! So transport me to the ship and we'll get go-" "Wait... Never mind. Anyways, ship's here. Transporting now." Rush nodded to his Ghost, disappearing from the feet up. ________________________________________ Rush and Hunt arrived in the Tower, greeted by warm welcomes from the other Guardians. Rush waved back at them, accepting the welcomes. He smiled, and walked down to the Hall Of Guardians, meeting up with Cayde. "No, no... Ikora, we will not send a Warl-" Cayde noticed Rush next to him and waved. "Oh, you... You kinda left me during a mission briefing..." Cayde sighed. "Anyways, on the Grottos of the Cosmodrome, a distress call of a Guardian..." Hunt groaned at the word "Cosmodrome." "Alright, we'll just get on that real quick, Cay-" "Take me with you." "No..." Rush chortled, and walked away from the Hall Of Guardians. "So... One last time, Hunt?" His Ghost sighed, obeying the request. "To the Cosmodrome... [i]Wooo[/i]..." Hunt gave a disappointed look, taking Rush to Orbit. ________________________________________ "Alright, so setting coordinates to the Grottos, and off we go." Rush sighed of relief, sitting back in his chair, relaxing. "Y'know Hunt, it isn't [i]all[/i] bad. Except for the Alien races on each Planet..." "What is that..?" Hunt brung up a projection of a ship, crashing down on Earth's Orbit, rather quickly. "Wait, what?" Rush abruptly sat up in his, chair. "Hunt, who's inside the ship? I'll redirect us when it crashes." He asked, waiting on Ghost's response. "A Ghost and a Guardian. Awoken... Set on a crash course to the Steppes." Hunt said, and Rush nodded. He quickly changed the coordinates to the Steppes and activated boosters. "And here we go..." ________________________________________ Rush landed with a crouch from his ship. He looked around the perimeter, his mind set on the ship from orbit. "Huh... How much longer?" "It should be coming down any minute now, that's for sure... Let's hope they survive. If the Ghost is dead, the Guardian will only have more chance to live. You know why we hide..." Hunt said in a grim tone. "There it is." Rush looked in the air, attempting to find the ship. The ship stood out in the night sky, flames searing from it's engines. The ship crashed, followed by a loud screech and explosion. [i]Entertaining...[/i] Rush thought to himself, running to the crashed ship. "Anyone in there?" Rush broke into the ship, smoke enveloped him. The smoke entered his air filter on his helmet, causing him to cough. "Ack! Hunt-- Where are they?" "Just ahead, I'm detecting the light of a Guardian, and a dim light of a Ghost... Something's wrong with the ghost but I can't seem to figure that out..." Rush wheezed and fanned away the smoke and nodded. "This smoke is annoying as all hell..." Rush said, holding his breath. He finds the nearest window and kicks it open, causing the smoke to escape. "Much better..." Rush sighed with relief, navigating his way through the crashed ship. "Right there..." Hunt marked the location on Rush's radar. Rush thanked his Ghost, hurriedly walking towards the marker. He turns the corner and spots the Awoken and their Ghost. "Female, Warlock..." "I can [i]see[/i] that, Hunt..." Rush snapped at his Ghost, picking up the Ghost and the fallen Guardian. "Covered in scorch marks, with some blood... We need to get her to the Tower. Hunt, send a medical signal to the Tower, we're going to drop her off at the there..." Hunt made a nodding motion with his shell and sent a signal to the Tower. "Sending in our ship now. Let's hope she survives..." Hunt said, looking at the Ghost on Rush's belt. It's eye fizzed on and off. "Let's hope you make it too..." Hunt whispered as he transported Rush to his ship...
