[i][u] A Late Savior Part Two[/u][/i] Rush walks to the cave entrance and stops by the dead Guardian, removing her helmet. The Guardian was revealed to be Human, age of around 24. Rush puts back her helmet on and ventures into the cave. "Wait," Dennis runs up to Rush. "Let me go with you. Didn't even tell me your name. Rude I might say." Rush looks at Dennis and smiled inside his helmet. "Rush. Rush "Deadeye" Falzone." Dennis laughs. "Something wrong? I'll reset your systems for the 11th time." Dennis stops laughing. "Bro, no need to be that rude. Let's just go inside you bum." Rush nods and they both walk inside. "We're burying that Guardian after this, right?" Codex asks. Rush looks at Codex with a [i]You don't say[/i] face inside his helmet and says yes. They ventured deeper and deeper inside the cave, killing the Fallen and Hive inside. Nothing interesting, just a Guardian Chore of cleaning up an area. [i]But what could've killed that female Guardian?[/i] Rush asked himself. "You good there, buddy?" Dennis asked. "Uh, yeah. I was just wondering how that Guardian died. Like what happened there?" Dennis sits down, inviting Rush for a seat. "Well Rush, you see.. I got a distress call from the Tower, saying there was a Guardian needing help here. Zavala encrypted details for my Ghost and I immediately rushed here on my Sparrow. By the time I got here, I saw an Ogre, slamming the Female Guardian down on the ground. The Ogre picked up her Ghost and crushed it and walked back inside. I went to the Guardian, seeing how she was, and it didn't go too well. Her ribs were crushed and her chest plates were cracked and dented. She coughed up blood and soon later, died... Her Ghost wasn't there, and there was no way she could be revived. I-I," Dennis's voice started to break. "Dennis, no need to break down, there was something you couldn't do. By the time you got there, she was practically dead. There was no way to save her... But look, there's a Warlock at the Hunter Bar back in the Tower, bleeding, and injured. She has no Ghost. So if she dies, she's just dead. Just like that other Guardian near the cave entrance. Here, I have her Ghost." Rush pulls out Theo from his side-bag and explains the rest of the Awoken Warlock Story to Dennis. It was silence throughout the cave when Rush finished. "We have to kill that Ogre for that Guardian outside. We have to avenge our fallen Guardian. Get up, Dennis. It's gonna be OGRE soon..." Rush giggled. "Ah, ogre jokes.. Love 'em, now let's get going." Dennis stood back up and carried on. They looked for the Ogre, in cracks and crannies, soon a loud roar could be heard. "Where did that come from," Dennis asked. "Ogre, on the west. It's Hallowed, from the Spawn Of Crota," Codex said. Dennis and Rush take off to kill the Ogre. Guns ready in hand, ready to take on this beast of the Darkness... -----------[Back At The Hunter Bar]------------ The Warlock wakes up to find Hunters all over her. She groans and sits up, but the pain makes her lay back down. "Ow, how did I get here? I was in the Cosmodrome.." Emilia asked. She grits her teeth to resist the pain. One of the Hunters spoke up. "Rush got you here, you were pretty injured. Bleeding and such, you need some more rest. We bandaged you up while you were unconscious," Emilia looked for her Ghost. "Where's my Ghost? Theo? You here?" Emilia asked for her Ghost. The Speaker walked down to the Hunter bar. "Your Ghost is dead Guardian. It is best if you don't move or speak loudly. If you die, you will stay dead. There is no way to revive you. So please just rest for now Guardian," Emilia couldn't believe her ears. Her Ghost, Theo, is dead. She just looks at the roof, silent. The words "Theo," and "Dead," kept lurking around in her head. What was she going to do. [i]Who's Rush?[/i] she thought to herself. [i]Was it that Hunter in the Cosmodrome? It has to be. But if he got me here then he could have Theo..[/i] She stares at the roof, thinking about what happened in the Cosmodrome. She soon falls tired, and sleeps. ----------[At The Grotto's Cave Thing]--------- "Shit, Dennis, flank left!" Rush yelled. The Ogre roared and stomped on the ground sending Rush back to the cave's wall. Dennis runs around the Ogre, sending a shotgun blast to the face, the Ogre eats the Shotgun Blast... Literally. The Ogre roars summoning Thrall and Acolytes to join him on the fight. "Rush, this is bad! Stupid Hive are surrounding us like we're their bitches! How are we going to do this?!" Rush gains his balance and a group of Thralls comes up and claws Rush's back, ruining his frabjous cloak. He screams in pain for a bit and seeing his cloak ruined got him mad. "Oh that bitch..." Rush summons his Golden Gun and shoots the horde of enemies behind him. The scream of Thralls exploding felt so good to Rush's ears. He laughs at the Burn marks they left behind on the cave due to Combustion. "Dennis, you're a Striker! Kill this stupid Ogre with your Fist of Havoc!" Rush yelled the command to Dennis, and Dennis obeys. The Ogre stomps and fires his Eye Blasts at Rush, and stomps the ground. Dennis charges his fists up with Arc, and jumps up into the air. He then let gravity do the work, and Dennis lands next to the Ogre, sending a shockwave of Arc through the remaining Thralls and Acolytes and killing the Ogre. Both of the Guardians wheeze and pant for air. Dennis sits down. "Damn it, it evaporated. Like every other Hive in this stupid world. I can never get information on them. How come Toland could?" Dennis complained. "Look, it's OGRE for SHREK. That's all that matters. That should let the Hive lay low for a bit. Plus I need a change, stupid Hive blood. Let's bury that Guardian, say our words to her, and let the Traveler bless her." Dennis agrees and they exit the cave. Rush pulls out Hunt, and summons a Shovel and a Gravestone. "Did you catch her name?" Rush asked and Dennis engraves her name on the gravestone and hands it to him. "Lucy -Blank-, 3431-3475, A Guardian fought bravely for the Traveler. May her light be reborn for another." Rush read the gravestone and set the Guardian down into the soil. "May you find your light in the waking world." Dennis salutes and sits down next to her Gravestone. "Well Dennis.. I have to head back to the Tower.. Gotta check up in that Awoken. Also. If you ever see me around the Tower, hit me up for anything, man." Rush waved "Goodbye" and left on his jump ship. "New friends, new journey.. Right Hunt?" Hunt agrees and they head off to the Tower.. [b] Sorry for the long read guys. Please sit down, relax and wait for Chapter 3. Writing is hard enough.
