The Guardians 3: Episode 7 (part 1)

If you've been following the series I apologize for the wait guys. I've been pretty busy this last week. If you're reading for the first time and enjoy the story, click #TheGuardians3 tag at the bottom of this post to see all previous episodes. If you don't like it, thanks for reading anyway. On to it then. [i][u]Episode 7: One Knight in the Cosmodrome[/u][/i] [b]Harley:[/b] Whoooooo Whoo! Hold on to your nuts boys! This is gonna be rough! [b]Teddy:[/b] ....Is seriously nobody gonna touch that one?! Harley pushed the jumpship full throttle, quickly executing perfect evasive maneuvers; two fallen dropships hot on our heels. Sensing imminent attack, she dove sharply into Earth's atmosphere, attempting to shake our pursuers. The ship rattled violently for minutes until finally we were in the skies above Old Russia. The Fallen ships were still on us. Their pilots were exceptionally skilled. [b]Winston:[/b] They're still on us, Harley! [b]Harley:[/b] Tell me something I don't know, asshole! [b]Winston:[/b] Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit Harley, incoming! The Fallen ships opened fire, hitting and disabling our starboard engines. Our ship began to spiral out of control and careen toward the ground. [b]Harley:[/b] Teddy, on my mark put everything we've got into the landing thrusters! [b]Teddy:[/b] First of all, I'm in command Mrs. TooBigForHerPanties! Secondly, WHAT?! [b]Harley:[/b] Dammit Teddy we don't have time for this, just do it! [b]Teddy:[/b] OK, but it sounds like somebody needs to change their tampon! The ground was coming up much too fast. We were at 500 meters, then 400, then 300 and dropping. [b]Winston:[/b] Harleeeey!? [b]Harley:[/b] Now! At 50 meters to impact, Teddy activated the landing thrusters and Harley pulled up as hard as she could. The ship immediately leveled out and nosed up, sending us back the way we came. The lead Fallen ship, having less maneuverability than our small jumpship, couldn't come out of the dive fast enough and crashed into the ground, exploding in a gigantic ball of fire. [b]Teddy:[/b] We've still got one on us! [b]Harley:[/b] Teddy, I'm gonna try somethin! Harley made a wide turn and started heading straight for the Fallen ship. [b]Teddy:[/b] Wha- what the -blam!- are you doing?! [b]Harley:[/b] I'm gonna swing by and clip their stabilizers! [b]Teddy:[/b] No, No, No, No Harley we can't make that turn we've still only got one- *SMASH*KABOOM* Without our starboard engines, we couldn't make the turn Harley attempted. We collided with the Fallen ship, separating our port wing from our own and sending us straight into the ground. *KRRRRREEE*BOOM*SHHHT* ************************* [b]Teddy:[/b] Oof ahhhh. Engine... is what I was gonna say... Harley you idiot. [b]Harley:[/b] *hufff*huff* Well, *huff* at least we're still alive. [b]Teddy:[/b] Speak for yourself. Winston? You alright? Ah hell...see, he's dead. Merv? [b]Merv:[/b] Yeah I'm on it. While Merv revived Winston, Harley and Ratchet started assessing the damage to the ship while Teddy searched around for salvageable supplies. All of a sudden, a shadowy figure appeared out of nowhere. [b]???:[/b] Helloooo. Teddy immediately drew his weapon. [b]Teddy:[/b] Woah, woah, freeze! Don't move! [b]Winston:[/b] *Gaaaasp* *POW* Winston's sudden revival startled an already tense Teddy. He fired out of reflex and landed a bullet directly between Winston's eyes, killing him again. [b]Harley:[/b] Oh for shit sakes, Teddy! [b]Teddy:[/b] Oops. Merv? [b]Merv:[/b] -_- Beginning revival procedure....again. Harley drew her own weapon and pointed it at our unknown guest, gesturing to Teddy to put his down. [b]Harley:[/b] Drop it before you kill someone else, -blam!-tard. And you! Who the hell are you!? [b]???:[/b] Don't shoot, don't shoot I come in peace! Lower your weapon, if you please. It was a dreg. A ragged one at that. His face was caked in dirt and his clothes were tattered and torn. His voice was high pitched, raspy, and quiet, as though he was an evil villain boasting of his ominous secret plans before killing us all. [b]???:[/b] I saw your fall and I'm here to help. But, why are you here? Explain yourselves. [b]Teddy:[/b] Ha! Like we're gonna trust you. We were just attacked by your kin and you want us to divulge our mission parameters? [b]???:[/b] I have no allegiance, no friends, no home. Just this here dirt, the grass, and the stone. [b]Harley:[/b] OK Dr. Seuss why the hell do you keep talking like that? This whole rhyming shit is getting pretty irritating. [b]Merv:[/b] I kinda like it. [b]Winston:[/b] Shut up, Merv. [b]???:[/b] Should I talk like humans? Like you.. or you? I am a Dreg, it's what we do. [b]Winston:[/b] Fair enough. What should we call you? [b]???:[/b] Hmmm.. I've never known any name but Dreg. But I suppose if you must, you may call me....Greg. [b]Teddy:[/b] Greg the homeless Dreg? Jesus. Couldn't come up with something a bit more original, eh? Well Greg, we're here to track down a Hive Knight who has valuable information for the Vanguard. [b]Greg:[/b] Ahhh yes, a Knight. There's plenty about. I believe I know someone who could help you out. [b]Winston:[/b] Well then, lead the way. [b]Greg:[/b] Oh no, oh no Greg won't go there. Last time we met he gave me a scare. I can give you directions to he whom you need. But be careful guardians, he's quite vicious indeed. [b]Teddy:[/b] Who is he and where do we find him? [b]Greg:[/b] The Forgotten Shore is where you must go. Over the hill and down the road. Just past the wreckage you'll find a lone Vandal. Prepare yourselves guardians... you're about to meet Randal.

  • I've seen Randal before... my friend and I fought him. He took so long to kill, it was insane! My friend said,"Holy crap, this vandal survived my rocket!" I though he was lying but I rushed over to him anyways. I saw my friend rushing towards him, using blade dancer. He got a couple of swipes in then died. I nova bombed him and though he died, but then I saw him run through it and come at me. It wasn't fun. It took us a couple of minutes and multiple rockets to kill him.
