Don't fret, have a Chapter Index! https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/151518733[/quote] [b]Meet the Team... [I]Fire[/i]team[/b] [b]Warlock[/b] Awoken, Female Lisa [b]Hunter[/b] Human, Male Bart [b]Titan[/b] Exo, Male Homer ____________________________ "I gotta get to the party, I gotta get to the party, [i]I gotta get to the party[/i]!" The Titan muttered to himself as swiftly sneaked throughout the Tower at stealth that surprised even himself, especially with a crate of fireworks in his hands. That armor must have been dragging him around all this time. "I'm almost-- DO'H!" He exclaimed with a jump before taking cover from passing a couple of passing Guardians behind a deactivated Sweeperbot that stood upright, head hung low. The Titan poked his head from behind the robot to see if it was safe for him to move out once again. It was. The naked Exo breathed a sigh of relief as he crept away from the idle service machine. Perfect, he was going just fine. All he needed to do was travel a little more and he would be home free! ... Without any clothes. Well, he [i]had[/i] to get there one way or another. ____________________________ "How're you enjoying the party?" The Warlock asked a relaxing human, male Titan with her notepad and pencil still in hand. She gave her notepad one more look before talking to him again. "Ah, you must be Jamie?" "That's me." Jamie replied with a nod. "And yeah, the party's pretty nice, I'm glad to be here." "And the food? How was the food?" She continued to ask him. She just needed all of the guests to be as happy as can be. "The food? Oh yeah, the food was nice too." Jamie answered. "I gotta admit though, I [i]kind[/i] of wish there was, ah, ehe... Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches." The Warlock blinked. What a... [i]strange[/i] request for a party food. "Erm, ah, well... We have peanut butter, jelly, and bread in the kitchen. Why don't you make yourself a few?" "[i]Really[/i]?" Jamie said with disbelief for a brief moment. Though, no sooner than he was offered, he sprung up from his lounging chair. "Thanks!" He said before bolting into the kitchen. "Hrm..." The Warlock was still slightly surprised by her guest's choice of foods. No time to be surprised now, there was much, much, [i]much[/i] work left to be done. ____________________________ "Look Rush, no need to get all upset over it. I was just sayin'--" "You were 'just saying' that [i]your[/i] Warlock is better than Emilia!" "Mmmmm yeeeaaaaah pretty much, eheheheh..." The Hunter chuckled before taking a stretch. "Only 'cause it's the truth, dude. Heh, my 'Lock's a fire fox." "And you think Emilia [i]isn't[/i]?" An irritated Rush returned, the fingers of both of his hands subconsciously curling into a fist. The entire time the Hunter and conversed with he and his Fireteam all he did was insult Emilia. He swore if [i]one[/i] more insult spewed from his mouth... "Mmm, I guess?" The Hunter bluntly stated, which only made Rush angrier. "Now wait." The Hunter began again. "I know a way to settle this whole deal we got. We could pit our 'Lock's against each other in a, uh, [i]competition[/i]. Just to prove who's 'Lock is best. [i]The[/i] best, 'kay?" He proposed. "Yeesh, this Hunter has [i]zero[/i] chill." Dennis whispered to the remainder of Rush's Fireteam, to which they nodded in agreement. ____________________________ "--We could pit our 'Lock's against each other in a, uh, [i]competition[/i]. Just to prove who's 'Lock is best." Was all Cosm0 overheard before running through the multiple crowds of guests in search of her [i]own[/i] Warlock, Markus. "Maaaaaaarkus!" She called out. "Maaaarku--" "Yeah?" Markus heeded her call, springing up beside her. Cosm0, rather than surprised, was more elated than anything. "Oh Markus!" Cosm0 squealed in ecstasy as she pulled her friend close to her with an arm around his neck. "We're going to put you in a [i]competition[/i]!" "Competition?" Markus repeated, more surprised than excited. "That's right!" Cosm0 exclaimed before releasing "her" Warlock from her previous hold on him, to grab him from under his arms. "You're going to be a [i]star[/i]!" She then picked up Markus and held him out to the crowd for all to gaze upon. "Meet the new victor, [i]my[/i] victor, everybody!" Cosm0 shouted to nab the attention of the crowds. It did. All eyes were on Cosm0 and Markus. More so Markus. Markus could feel his face growing red with the slightest bit of embarrassment. ____________________________ "So how're you enjoying the party?" The Warlock asked a pair of Hunters who stood near the food table. "And you two must be..." She muttered before looking at her notepad. "Kygnos and Scarlet?" "That's us." The female Hunter known as Scarlet replied. "We're enjoying the party as well, right Kygnos?" She looked at her partner for an answer. "Yeah," Kygnos replied with a nod. "But, in all honesty I kind of came here just for the foo--" "Kygnos!" Scarlet snapped before giving him a firm nudge to his ribs. "Ow! What'd I say?" Kygnos rubbed his side, wincing. The Warlock was about to add something, but before she could... "Yooooo 'Lock, I need ya for something!" The Hunter shouted from across the room. The Warlock sighed in disgust for his rather [i]crude[/i] way of getting her attention. But, if she didn't go to him then there was a one hundred percent chance he would keep calling her. And she wasn't prepared for such an annoyance. "Euh... I am coming, Hunter." ____________________________ "What is it, Hunter?" The Warlock asked him once she arrived near the Hunter. "Is there somethi-- Oh, greetings Rush..." She interrupted herself to greet Rush, dipping her head. "How are you--" "So get this, Floof," the Hunter said as he wrapped an arm around the Warlock's neck. The Warlock looked at him with a "what in the world are you doing?!" look, but the Hunter didn't care. There was boasting to be done. "I just wanna set up a little competition, you know, to see who's 'Lock is best." The Hunter explained. The Warlock only frowned in response, which made the Hunter sigh. Looks like he had to explain a [i]wee[/i] bit more to convince her. "Rush said that his 'Lock's better, and that your choice of reading sucks." "He [b]what[/b]?!" The Warlock exclaimed. [i]That[/i] set her off. "I [i]what[/i]?" Rush also exclaimed in disbelief. The Hunter was just going to [i]lie[/i] about him like that? "Ehehehe... Let the games begin." The Hunter snickered, obviously not bothered by what he had just started. [quote]Take 55... Shifty eyes: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/190488605[/quote]
