"You're running out of ammo." The Ghost says, and his Exo sighs.
"Does it sound-" Gunfire erupts. "-like these Cabal give a damn? And do you think I give a damn?" More gunfire.
Another Cabal ship passes overhead, dropping more reinforcements. A Colossus drops onto the battlefield, making Kairos swear.
"Open a channel to the Vanguard, as well as Shaxx. Old bastard owes me a few favors."
The Ghost does as Kairos asks, the firefight continuing. Suddenly, the Pulse Rifle in the Titan's hand's clicks. No ammo. He ducks behind cover, pulling out his favorite rifle. The Queen may be missing, but her memory lives on through each bullet fired from The Supremacy given to Kairos.
"Zavala, I need another Guardian out here! I'm too low on ammo to punch through this part of the Exclusion Zone! Dammit Zavala, I'm not built for suicide missions, and you know that's what this is!" Kairos says, before the channel cuts out.
"It was cut on their end." The Ghost points out. A Legionnaire jumps over the rock Kairos is using as cover, landing behind him. Kairos drops his rifle, fists crackling with void energy.
"You want some? Come get it." He grows, and the Legionnaire swings a fist at him. Kairos ducks under his swing, plants a Magnetic grenade on the chest of the Cabal, kicking off the soldier's chest. The grenade goes off, and Kairos turns, looking desperately around the valley for some help. Off in the distance, he sees a shadow.
"Friendly in the zone. Repeat, friendly in the combat zone. I'll try and get their attention." His Ghost says.

"Sure. You could've used that chip I have you a while ago had you need help."
-
"Oh, right. Forgot about that." Kairos says, motioning for you to follow. "So this Valus, he's holed up on the far side of this valley. We just need to get within two clicks, and I'll make sure he won't cause any more trouble." Kairos says over his shoulder, summoning his Sparrow.
-
"Wait before you go, check this out."
-
Kairos turns. "What is that?" He asks cautiously.
-
"Prototype, portable teleporter. Can only be used once I'm afraid."
-
"Hmm... Let's move to the insertion point on Sparrows, continue to a nice vantage point, I take the shot, and we use that teleporter to get us as far away as possible. Sound good?" Kairos says, examining the device.
-
"Sounds fine."
-
Kairos nods, jumping on his Sparrow. "I'm ready whenever you are." He says, looking back at you. "First base is similar in size to Rubicon, so guns blazing is not going to work. I've found a ventilation shaft that links us to the second firebase, similar in size to the one in the pass leading to the Black Garden's gate. The last base is very open, and similar in size to the one guarding the Black Garden's gate. According to drone reports, the Valus goes outside to inspect his troops every day. Always at the same time." Kairos informs, checking a few things on his Sparrow.
-
"And when's this time?"
-
"Around 12PM, according to my Ghost's time. It's give or take by a few minutes." Kairos says, satisfied with what he was checking. "Alright, I'm good. Let me know when you are and we'll head to the ventilation shaft!"
-
"I'll meet you outside the base."
-
Kairos nods. "See you there." He takes off on His Sparrow, leaving you alone, sand being kicked up by his exhaust.
-
[Later outside The Base When You Arrive] "I was beginning to wonder if you'd show up"
-
"How... What? I left before you...? What the hell?" Kairos stammers, completely confused.
-
"Faster sparrow."

"And the consensus files were definitive on it being in this location, ghost?" Asked the warlock. "Have I ever been that wrong?" The ghost retorted. "Well there was that one time where you incorrectly decrypted that encryption back on Luna and - ". BOOM!!! "Did you hear that kc?" The ghost inquires. "Yes a magnetic grenade. And this far out in the exclusion zone. Any guardian is aware all excursions this far out end in suicide so who could - of course a titan. No sense in allowing a comrade to die I suppose." The warlock begins to resonate with void energy. And his weapon the most infamous bad juju growls at its newly acquired food. He begins to whisper words, not towards the enemy or titan. Or even his ghost but rather reality itself They augment to a shout. "REALITY IS THE FINEST FLESH!! THOUGH I SUPPOSE YOU CABAL WILL DO!" *a nova bomb travels of towards the cabal disintegrating near all of them* "Well then what's your name?"
-
"Name's Kairos. Defender Titan. Appreciate the help. Have any spare ammo for Pulse Rifles, Snipers, and HMG's? I asked the Tower for a supply drop, but just because I defied orders last week Zavala vetoed that. There's a Valus on the far side of the valley, and he's re-arming what's left of the Sand Eaters Legion. Vanguard wants him gone. He doesn't have high grade armor, so the plan was to get just far enough to give him a third eye. What're you doing out here?" The Titan pants, catching his breath.
-
The ghost speaks softly "a nova bomb has been detonated 100m north of us lieutenant". Kovac nods as he aims his hereafter north looking for the source muttering, "Always a fun party when cabals involved right." After a few seconds the titan sees two other guardians, "This must be the titan in trouble the vanguard informed me about...but whos the warlock." Kovac crouches his hereafter zooming closer to the pair.
-
The figure of the warlock pulls the titan up and they continue to converse. Then, the silhouette of the warlock stares dead down your scope... They race off on sparrows. Though you notice that the warlock seemed to be taunting you before going off
-
The Titan is helped up by the Warlock. They appear to be having a conversation, until the Titan points to the closest valley wall, before looking around, as if he realizes he's being watched. He gives no indication of knowing where you are.
-
"Well karios, is it? I can supply you with ammunition, though I'm not sure how much it will be of use to you. From your story you're no rookie. You know well as much as anyone that excursions out this far in the exclusion zone are irrefutable death!!! Though I suppose that would put me in question as well." The warlock begins to contemplate and talk to his ghost, or himself maybe... "It would be foolish to allow you hunt down a valus alone in the state of the system right now along with your own. It would be foolish... Alright then, I'll accompany you on this mission. However the cabal are well equipped in this area. I'm not sure you need any example from what just occurred. So this will be a reconnaissance mission to assure our hides. And in return you can assist me.... Find what I've been looking for?" The warlock, dodging your question grants a hand to help you up. He is hiding something "Up to you karios, oh and I recommend not pulling this again. Vanguard forces don't residually go out this far. Your lucky I got here when I did"
-
Kairos accepts the hand. "Sure. I've been here for about a week, so I've pretty much seen it all when it comes to what's out here. Due west, there is a Vex ruin of some sort. Leads down into some caves, I didn't really poke around in there. Saw some Taken, though they seemed to be very disoriented by... something. Dunno what. Cabal have from what I can tell two Forward Operating Bases set up, one on the right side of the valley about three clicks from here, the other on the left side, closer to six clicks. Further down, well, they were excavating something of unknown origins, looked to be similar to Hive structure. Didn't really see much else. No human colonies, just a ton of Sand Eaters." Kairos points towards the close valley wall. "I set up a small base of my own there. Got some food if you need it, just not a lot of ammo. We can rest there for the night. I can take first watch, fix up the damage I've taken. Sounds good?"

Edited by NTG GHOST: 9/21/2015 5:18:21 AM"Open a channel to shaxx ghost," the helmet crackled with static before shaxx's voice pushed through. Listening intently before speaking, "I understand shaxx...ye...yes i will...ill bring him home." The channel closes with a click as kovac sighs softly, before looking around the pair making sure area was clear. Kovac noticed for just a second that the warlock had locked eyes with him through his scope, which made him frown. Holstering the sniper onto his back kovac summoned his speeder, hopping on it and hitting the thrusters making his way towards the pair. Kovac flew past some of the rocks that laid a skewed around the area before noticing the pair hopping onto speeders, "Oh god damn it!"

Edited by TrolleyProblem: 9/21/2015 5:20:31 AMSuddenly a voice booms into your headset. That's odd you fathom. Your ghost wasn't transmitting any signals. "[b][u]listen and listen closely, guardian. Do not interfere with my bearer's plan. This is your one and final admonishment[/u][/b]" you stare at ghost ready to inquire what that was. Only to find out that your ghost didn't witness nor hear any of that
-
"vex ruins? Disoriented entities near them? I knew you'd never steer me wrong ghost!!!!" The warlock more or less whispers to himself. Realizing you see his outburst, he recollects himself. "I mean sounds astounding. We should head out now though. It's getting dark and from recent investigation, taken seem more rambunctious around that time. However I already sense like we're being... Watched" He turns away. Seeming overly paranoid. "Let's hurry"
