"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"

"Alright. I thought I saw a scope glint a second ago, but for all I know it was just some relic iron. Come on, I'll lead you to my home away from home." Kairos responds, filing away the outburst in his memory banks. "What's your name? I didn't catch it if you said it."
-
"Oh my name, nothing special... KC. Don't wear it out alright. Also" the warlock signals you to Mount on your sparrow. "Make a few circles before we start out to your base, whatever you saw wasn't relic iron. Wasn't vex or cabal either"
-
Kairos mounts his Sparrow, nodding. He looks off into the distance, feeling the wind kick up. "Dust storm's coming! If you can, close up your armor vents, otherwise its a pain to clean them! If something's trying to follow us, we'll lose them in the storm. IR has trouble seeing in it, so most optics are screwed. We're about half an hour out from my base, storm will be on us in ten minutes." Kairos calls over the rising wind, waiting for you to be ready before taking off at top speed towards his base.
-
"Good, we'll discuss the strategy for the mission once we get to your base" the warlock silently follows behind you seeming focused on a conversation that was never occurring. He stares back to the 'glint'. "I'm not going back not yet" he whispers.
-
"Hmm?" Kairos asks, slowing down, leveling out with you. "Something wrong?"
-
[quote]"Hmm?" Kairos asks, slowing down, leveling out with you. "Something wrong?"[/quote] "..." "Nothing"
-
"Alright. We'll be there soon. About five minutes till the dust storm hits, so just be careful. Visibility is going to be near zero. Don't say I didn't warn you!" Kairos says, speeding up slightly to lead you.
-
Sensing that they were getting ready to leave, kovac swore loudly slammed the accelerator down as far as possible, "Ghost open a comms with that titan now before we lose him!" The ghost, a vanguard variant, began to open up pinging towards the titans ghost only 68m away.
-
"New comm channel open. I don't know who opened it, but they're broadcasting. I'll clean up the signal, that sand is starting to cause problems." Kairos' Ghosts says, and he nods. "It should be good now." "Alright, whoever just opened this channel, state who you are, and your intentions. Make it quick too, that storm that's coming in will cause problems for us talking." Kairos says over the private comm channel.

Looks at the distance displayed on my HUD, it reads 45m to destination. "Do not trust that warlock i repeat DO NOT TRUST THAT WARLOCK!" The comms begin to sputter as kovac's ghost tried to enhance the signal.
-
"Say again Kovac, Shaxx sent you? Alright. My Ghost is doing it's best to patch up the signal, but you said do not trust this Warlock I have with me? Fine. I'll keep an eye on him. I sent you coordinates for my base, if you want to watch him, there's a ridge just above it. You can watch from there." Kairos responds, glancing over at the Warlock, who appears to be thinking about something.
-
"Karios, I heard everything. Don't be a fool!!! Would the vanguard estate someone as imperative as a commander out on a retrieval mission this far into the exclusion zone? He's most likely a rouge. There are dozens of them out here. He will just kill us both and purloin our materials!!! Please believe me. When we get to your base... We have to kill him okay?" The warlock shouts to you even more anxious
-
"Look, I don't know who the hell you two are. I don't know what you want with me. All I do know, is that right now, all I can trust is myself. You try to follow me, and I'll take two shots. One six inches to the left of your right shoulder, then another, thirty seconds later, on your shoulder. That a good enough deterrent for you?" Kairos snarls, turning his Sparrow, and sending the vehicle to it's limit, leaving a dust trail behind. The storm looms overhead, dark and ominous.

Edited by TrolleyProblem: 9/21/2015 5:54:40 AM"Ahhh! Karios comeback!! Don't leave me with this mad man!" How will you find the valus led alone kill him. You need me remember. This guy is an imposter he's going to kill us both. First me then you. Be sensible
-
A single shot rings out. Instead of being where Kairos said the first one would be, it's directly into your Sparrow's core. It instantly slows you down, when suddenly, Kairos flies overhead on his Sparrow, going towards the Cabal's FOBs.

"Karios, I admit it alright! That imbecile was right but for the wrong reasons!!!!! You're going to die if you head off alone and you know it. Just... Let me explain, I'll even let that 'commander' speak! Okay?" I walk up with my hands where you can see them.

As his Sparrow explodes, Kairos rolls, landing on a knee. Kairos glares at you, void energy crackling along his arms. "Tell me it all. Or you will see what this Titan is capable of. Then, I'll hear this other Guardian's story. If I don't like either, I run, and you two can fight it out, because apparently, you're rogue. And I don't like those who turn away from all that the City has given them. I'll take a side if necessary, so you better be a good talker."

It started back with her. Her name was chrono-8 a good friend, and mentor. She was a sunsinger but she taught me everything I knew at the time. Once I even was foolish enough to hunt draksis the winter kell. Had it not been for her, I would have died for good. Her, Korvac, and corzan -a hunter- were a full fledged clan. Brothers and sisters. One day they all left to take down a serious threat... Phogoth. It had been hours. They still hadn't come back. So I went after them. Corzan was dead... Split in two still cursing. Korvac was unconscious. And chrono, she was still protecting them. In all my awe I hadn't notice phogoth set his sites on me. She took the blast and... I finished the job. I couldn't live without her. Korvac just acted like nothing even happened! Then I heard of the ahamkara. Like the one on my head. They can bequeath me the capability to consume this reality. I can not only get chrono back. But I can change everything. I told the speaker of my plan and he attempted to trick me. The ahamkara... They .... Can do it. I went off on excursion and excursion searching. Then a sunsinger got in my way. What I need is down there. But I didn't mean to kill infernal. I swear. Please korios, it's so close. Just help me

Kairos stands still, breathing hard. The void energy continues to grow, encasing most of the Titan's upper body. "Get out of my sight. I see you again, and I'll personally take you in and rip that Ahamkara off your skull. Only reason I'm letting you go is because you saved me. Storm will hit any second. Might want to hit the ruins before that happens." Kairos spits out, anger in his voice.

He just wouldn't leave me alone. I can bring him back, chrono back... ALL OF THEM!!!! Can't you see that? I can change this for the better. Unlike that fraud!!! 'Speaker' come on now. Isn't it obscure how he is supposed to speak for the light yet he rarely has anything substantial to say?! He is lying!!!! The ahamkara are telling the truth. Just come with to the ruins I can prove it!!!!

Edited by Oath: 9/21/2015 6:40:38 AMA single sniper shot rings out, but Void light protects you. Kairos turns towards you, rotating his shoulders. "Be careful of what you say next, betrayer. You may regret it for the rest of your life." He growls, now fully encased in armor of the Void, except his head. The dust storm hits, and hits hard, sand being thrown everywhere.

KC augments void energy and contorts yours to his whim "next time don't challenge a voidmaster" he holds an energy of a collapsing star in his palm aimed at kovac. "I don't want to do this. Now here's what's going to happen. You [b][u]will[/u][/b] follow me into the ruins or commando over there dies. And if you kill me as well, then who looks like rouge? KC retorts as the storm encroaches even more. "Times a wasting defender"
-
"You? Voidmaster? I'm no simple Defender, Warlock. I have bonded Arc and Void energies. I am a VOIDMASTER. I AM A TITAN. I DO NOT BOW, I DO NOT BREAK. I CRUSH ALL OPPOSITION." You hear Kairos roar over the storm, and you see him slowly walk through the sands towards you, now fully encased in the Void. He carries no weapons, but that does not stop him. He pauses around fifteen feet away from you.

Edited by Oath: 9/21/2015 7:06:45 AM[spoiler]Void energy was on Kairos, but it doesn't really matter[/spoiler] Kairos tries to fight the energy that is forcing him systems to shutdown. [i]Keep... fighting. Can't... let... Kovac... down...[/i] Kairos stands still for what feels like an eternity, but waivers, then collapses, the howling dark swallowing his consciousness whole.
