[i]Though the Titan has not responded, his Ghosts light was flickering extremely dimly. The Fallen have found the warehouse, and are trying to get inside.[/i]

[i]David held the titans ghost in his hands. He put him on a table nearby and started to contact for support. He heard fallen outside, chattering, yelling. Then he heard the loud footsteps of the spider walkers. David wasn't going anywhere, not without backup at least. A voice was heard through David's comms, a woman. As they finish discussing a plan of action David turns to the titan to try and wake him up. [/i] D: Alright, I got some good help on the way. Titan, you hear me? If you wake up, I'll give you a cookie. B: David you expect him to wake up for that? D: Don't question my methods, bargaining is good negotiation.

Edited by cstubble: 9/28/2015 9:52:50 PM[i]As expected, no response. However, it seems as though a fleet of ships is moving in. Whether good or hostile, is unknown. The flickering of the Titans Ghost flickers slightly more now that it is no longer in the snow. It seems as though it is defrosting. [/i] (I kind of wanted him to wake up to the cookie to be honest haha)

D: You know, I should keep a warm batch always at standby. You never know when it can resurrect someone just as good as a ghost. Don't you think Beachball? B: Very funny David. D: Uh oh, I hear a bunch of ships in the air. What's Adara's ETA? B: She said about 5 minutes. D: Oh we're dead. [i]Once again, fallen whirring echoed. The pirates kept arguing outside. Gunfire was heard, followed by a thud. Fallen and thier ruthlessness never ceased to amaze David. David went towards the ghost, and sighed at releif seeing it. Although, Beachball seemed more stressed than David. He doesn't like being in the same room with a dead ghost. David, as anxious as ever, peered over the ghost, waiting for it to recover.[/i]
-
[i]The Ghosts light becomes steady. It seems to be completely thawed.[/i] "What.... What happened? Who are you and where are we?", said the ghost.
-
D: You tell me, we got a message from your guardian oveeeerrr... There, in that corner. *points at the titan* Seems to me you were outnumbered by space pirates and the snowstorm was just insult to injury. I [i]picked[/i] up your guardian, barricaded the door, and we're waiting for one thing or the other. Impending death from said space pirates-- [i]Loud banging was heard at the door. The Fallen have caught thier scent and are eager to lay waste to guardians. David breathed deep in and out and resumed talking. [/i] D: --or, await rescue from the legend herself, Adara Sov. Sounds cool right? Anyways, I'm pretty sure the Eliksni are gonna tear us apart first. At least not before I kill half of them. B: Nevermind him, is there a way we can defrost your guardian? What's his name? (Roll with the other character being a legend. Pls?)

Edited by cstubble: 9/29/2015 1:25:08 AM[i]The Ghost looks fully recovered.[/i] "My name is Gandalf. My Guardian over there *turns toward Titan* is named Siris. Dosent look like he's in good shape huh?" [i]Gandalf looks toward the barricaded door, which dosent look like it'll hold much longer. [/i] "I might not be able to revive him alone, but maybe both me and your Ghost can do it together? It looks like that's the only option here. Considering... You know there is a LOT of fallen out there." (Do you mean Adara Sov? Sure that's fine!)
-
D: Do whatever you guys need to do, while I am going to set up some nice welcoming surprises for these grumpy pirates. Ok? Good, now do your thing. [i]David rushes to the door and places a series of explosives and smokescreens all around the entrance. Beachball floats to Siris' body along with Gandalf, as anxious as ever without a clue of what to do. As David finishes with his traps, he quickly finds cover behind a large counter and mounts his rifle on it, waiting. The banging gets louder and louder and each more violent than the last. David turns to the ghosts over Siris' body and speaks to them.[/i] D: You know, I have no idea what you 2 are doing but it'd be great if you can wake up the big guy.
-
[i]The two Ghosts look at each other and nod. They both use their inner light from the Traveler and slowly, Siris' body is thawed. Siris slowly opens his eyes.[/i] "So.... What'd I miss?"
-
D: Wake up sleeping beauty, angry space pirates are beating down the door I barricaded just so we could have this alone time you and me. I picked up your message, I'm the guy who was talking to you through comms. Don't you recognize my lovely voice? [i]Suddenly, the violent banging stops. The fallen screech and yell at something else. Gunfire rings out, cries of pain and bones snapping are heard. All that ends with one familiar sound, a Fist of Favoc. After a few long seconds, knocking is heard from the door, and a woman's voice is heard.[/i] A: Open the door David! D: Wait, how do you know it's me? A: The fallen gave it away! D: Oh, I see. A: Open the door! D: Wait wait wait wait! The door is showered with traps, let me take them back before you waste them all. A: Hurry. [i]David quickly grabs the bombs and smokescreens he had carefully laid out and put them back in his satchel. Adara walks in, arc energy crackling from her fists and legs, the cold air filling the room. Almost as cold as her. [/i] D: Took you long enough.
-
S: "Right.... Bad space aliens outside. What's the plan? Charging them and shooting? That would be fun" [i]Once Adara arrives, Siris looks excited.[/i] S "Nice to meet you Adara, I'm the guy that was dead a couple minutes ago. Thank the Traveller someone came to save us... I thought I'd have to go kill em all myself!" G "What he means is to Thank both of you. We'd both be dead without you."
-
D: No problem. It's been a while since I saved a soul, let alone have to of them in the same room. A: We don't have time, we need to hurry. [i]Adara gives Siris her hand. David got a small flashback of his earlier days. The fallen threat and deadly cold took him back years ago. Back when Adara was making a name for herself and when David had just mastered being a gunslinger. His flashback was interrupted by fallen screeching. He took out his handcannon and headed outside. Meanwhile Adara awaited Siris' response.[/i] A: Well? Would you like to freeze to death once more?
-
[i]Siris looks up at Adara, and accepts her hand.[/i] S: "I'm good. Let's get going before more fallen show up." Gandalf: "Sorry to interrupt, but I'm Detecting Fallen reinforcements in the area. And there's a lot." S: "Why can't anything be easy?"
-
[i]Gunfire is heard. Adara takes out her Down and Doubt 00 and gives Siris a gesture to follow. The two investigate and find David fighting another small fallen squad. Adara leaves David fighting the pirates and keeps running along. She give Siris another gesture to follow and she asks him something.[/i] A: Do you know where your ship is? The edge of the storm is a little further ahead, it's the only chance you have of escaping!
-
[i]Siris runs along side Adara, holding his Last Extremity scout rifle. When Adara asks about his ship, Siris tries to remember.[/i] S: I remember it being outside the storm. Let's get out of here first, then I'll find it. What about David?
-
A: He'll be fine! If anyone can take care of himself is him. Push on, we're almost out of it! [i]Adara keeps running through the storm. Battling with the elements, she stumbles but doesn't fall and keeps going. Shortly after she stops abruptly, the titans ran out of ground to run on. The two were on the edge of the storm and below them was a 20 meter drop into ruins of a forgotten town.[/i] A: This is it Siris, you need to call down your ship or I think we'll both fall down.
-
[i]Siris looks down and curses.[/i] S: "Alright Gandalf... It's all you." G: "Let's hope this thing will come to us..." [i]Suddenly Siris' ship flies down. It's beat up, but it'll work.[/i] S: "Ghost get us in there quick!!!" [i]Both Adara and Siris are teleported into the ship.[/i]
-
[i]Adara was cramped inside side Siris' ship. Trying to get herself in a more comfortable position, she asks Siris why he brought her onboard as her intentions were to fight off the Fallen left on the ground. And she's not find of tight spaces...[/i] A: Siris, why did you being me aboard your ship? I was expecting you to fly off while I hold back fallen.
-
[i]Siris looks confused. He turns his ship around, and flies it head on into the storm. Once he sees David fighting an increasingly large hoard of fallen, he responds to Adara.[/i] S: "Alright. Let's go." [i]Siris teleports both him and Adara out of the ship. He grins[/i] S: "Yeah I'm going too. I'm not gonna let you two save my ass just to miss all the action!" [i]Siris charges in to the fight, right alongside David, pulls out his Red Death and began to shoot down hordes of Fallen.[/i]
-
[i]As David kicked some poor dreg into oblivion, a spider walker is seen in the distance. It readies it's giant solar cannon, aimed right at David and Siris. As soon as it's about to fire, one of it's legs are heavily damaged and explodes by Adara's hand. The inside is exposed, a bright orange glow.[/i] A: Shoot it! D: Do you have to shout everything? I know what to do you psychopath! A: Shut up and shoot it! D: You heard her Siris! [i]David aims his Hereafter at the innards of the spider tank and Adara unleashes a volley of rockets.[/i]
-
[i]Siris nods, pulls out his sniper and in one quick motion looks down the scope and unloads his mag. With the three guardians filling the tank with lead, it explodes[/i] S: "Gandalf, how much more are on the way?" G: "I detect one more wave. Wait.... that's a really big wave. It looks like the smaller Fallen are protecting something big. Like... Really big. And it's in the sky. And I don't like it." S: "Your telling me there's a..." [i]Siris is cut off as a giant Ketch flies overhead. Suddenly, an Archon Priest appears out of the ship, surrounded by an army of Fallen.[/i] S: "Guys... I hate to admit it but this might be a little much. Should we run or stay and fight?"
-
D: Run away? [i]Run away?[/i] Run away, run away, run awaaaayyy... No, I don't see that in my usual vocabulary. The words "run" and "away" are in there, but not together. A: The Cabal pack a bigger punch. This is no different. [i]Adara equips her 4th horseman and braces herself for the upcoming wave. David puts away his Hereafter and instead equips his Hawkmoon. Amidst of all the chaos, an incoming message from elsewhere in the cosmodrome, the warlock of the team Xel-15 establishes communications. Against seemingly impossible odds David and Adara both seemed unfazed, even a little underwhelmed by what lies ahead in the violent storm.[/i] X: [i]David, do you read me?[/i] D: I can't read you, but I can hear you. X: [i]There are fallen converging onto you. What are you doing in the storm.[/i] D: I might've, maybe, possibly, probably hacked fallen comms and bragged to them on how I have Taniks' cloak. X: [i]Bragging? I thought you were on a reconnaissance mission![/i] D: I was! And I found a small fallen encampment. And I hacked thier comms. And the storm rolled in. There are like, 2 spider tanks, several small pirates and an Archon that's very very angry at me. A: Why would you do such a stupid thing? D: Hey, if you get to piss off Cabal leaders and get away with it scot-free, I'm gonna enjoy myself listening to angry archons yell at me. Funny stuff. B: David has a point Adara... A: Don't be as foolish as David, Beachball. B: I'm not!
-
[i]Siris chuckles.[/i] S: "So be it." [i]Siris summons his hammer of sol, and runs into the storm. All that is heard is screams of Fallen and large flashes of fire in the storm. Siris sprints back out, to meet the others. And waves them over[/i] S: "Come on in! This is great!" [i]The Three Guardians charge into the storm to fight an army of fallen.[/i]
-
[i]David charges at the fallen and jumps up high. A bow forms from his hands, made of void light. Suspended in the air, bow in hand, about to engage ruthless fallen, he felt a sense of serenity. He missed that feeling. All good things must come to an end, and he fired the bow with deadly accuracy hitting a captain, and tethering most of the fallen around it. David lands on the ground and Adara heads straight for the group of fallen unleashes a Fist of Havoc on the ground. Unlike David, she doesn't feel serenity. She never has in her life, she does not know it. Instead she's constantly in an alarmed state, never relaxing, never taking second breaths, always looking behind her back. As she strikes down with full force, all fallen near tethered or not, die. She looks behind her, and as luck would have it a stealth captain was nearing her. She aims her 4th horseman at the captain, waiting for him to get close, but David shoots it dead. [/i] D: That one was mine. A: It's dead. Why take possession over something no longer alive? D: Wow, can I not enjoy myself [i]ever?[/i] Don't murder my joy for Christ's sake.
-
[i]Siris turns and grins as he stabs a Captain with his Void Edge, and shoots some dregs with Red Death.[/i] S: "You two crack me up!" [i]Suddenly the 3 Guardians hear a roar and look up. The Fallen Archon Priest approaches.[/i] S: *sigh* "Alright let's do this." [i]Siris whips out Hammer of Sol, and begins to charge.[/i]
-
D: I'm glad you find us amusing, I aim to please. Just like how I'm aiming for the archon's head. [i]David readies his Stillpiercer, a weapon made by Banshee himself, and fires at the archons head. At his side, Adara was firing her handcannon at the archon. After moments of continuos gunfire, Adara and David both switch to heavy weaponry. David with his Diluvian, and Adara with her Uppercut Payload. As he sees Siris charging the archon, he makes a friendly wager with Adara.[/i] D: One-fifty glimmer says that the archon slaps him out of the way. A: David do you want to lose a wager, we've been pressing fire on this monster with too very heavy power. I think Siris could give the finishing blow. D: Psh, that archon looks pretty tough to me. Which reminds me, Beachball fetch me Taniks' cloak. B: *sigh* alright David... [i]David's cloak vanishes for a second, and a few moments pass and he's seen with Taniks very own cloak. The fallen grow angrier, and David let's out a big grin under his helmet. Meanwhile Adara scoffs and rolls her eyes at David's strange arrogance. Regardless, she wouldn't have him any other way, and whispers to herself.[/i] A: I'm glad you haven't changed... D: What's that? A: Nothing. Focus on shooting the archon.
