[b][u]Episode 4: Breaking & Entering... and more Breaking[/u][/b] [i]BOOM![/i] Dredgen's ears rang from the force of the Fallen walkers blast, impacting against Kabr's shield. He turned around, "How much longer!?" he yelled to Toland, who was busy trying to open the gate to the Prison of Elders. They were clinging to the rock that made up the prisons doorsteps, protecting Toland from hordes of Shanks as he unlocked the door, it was all going well, right until that bloody Walker showed up on a nearby asteroid. "I'm trying!" Toland yelled back, "it's hard to do this without the help of a ghost!" another blast slammed into the shield, causing Toland to drop his tool and swear, "Try killing them! That might help a lot you lazy bastard!" Dredgen growled, "Don't start with me you old cryptarch!" he muttered as he shot Thorn into the hordes of shanks, causing a series of pops and sparks as shanks exploded left and right. Kabr muttered "imbeciles", and dropped his energy field. Leaping out into space, he charged up his shield and sent forth a mass of energy, smashing both the Walker, and the asteroid it was anchored to, the chain reaction destroying nearby skiffs in a beautiful explosion. _______________________________________ Toland shook his head "remarkable..." he whispered as he finished unlocking the door, "Get in!" he yelled to Dredgen, who immediately made a mad dash for the door. He got up, surveying the battlefield, watching Kabr destroy the Fallen skiffs by leaping on top of them, to help, he threw a couple Scatter grenades into the fray, causing more mayhem. "Kabr, get in here!" he yelled, desperately trying to keep the door from closing to prevent the vacuum. He turned, just in time to feel the titan slam into his body, knocking him into the prison as the doors closed. "Oof, A little to close for comfort, don't you think?" he muttered dusting himself off. Hearing the barely audible [i]snick[/i] of a knife, he turned just in time to see Dredgen finishing slitting the throat of his 10th vandal, the halls spattered in Ether. He wiped off his knife as the others stared at him, "what?" he asked. "Nothing" Toland said, barely hiding his smile. This was going to be interesting... "We have four hours" Kabr rumbled, "we need to start moving". _______________________________________ Meanwhile, in a different part of the reef "My Queen!" the Queen turned, watching the messenger enter the throne room. "There has been an attack on the Prison of Elders!" "Guardians?" her brother Crowe, hissed, gripping his knife in anticipation. "No" the Queen snapped, sensing her brothers excitement. "I sense no light from these intruders, however..." she turned, speaking to a shadowy figure that always lurked behind her throne. She smiled "Send Likisis" she smiled, much to her brothers dismay, "The Blade will deal with them" ______________________________________ [i]To be continued...[/i] Next Chapter: http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/107420750/0/0 Table of Contents: http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/114713352/0/0
