E: "I think so, it goes something like this, there is a core crystal, small enough to fit in your pocket it has something to do with how the taken are formed and what they become."
She tries to hide the fact she's exhausted and pretty shaken up by what she saw.
E: "could that be what your looking for?"
English
-
"it might be. I'll have to inspect it later." He takes notice to her exhaustion and shock. "You saw her get shot, didn't you? You saw an attack on a lab. What else?"
-
Echo looks down then looks back at Hunter. E:"the woman, who was she? I saw her ,but you... It looked like you ...." She stops unsure if what she saw was quite real. E:" she was dying you know ,you couldn't have saved her, they would have used her, you know that".
-
Hunter-0 sighs heavily. "She was my fiancé during my time as a human. We were working with some vex technology when," He pauses, taking a breath, "when we were attacked." His fists are clenched in a ball. His is actually bending the plating on his palms slightly. "It doesn't matter what I could or couldn't have done. It should have been me instead."
-
Echo's link to Hunter still remained so she felt his pain, his sorrow, and his rage. It would subside eventually although she doubted she would ever forget what she saw. E:"I have been based on Venus for the last decade I didn't find any records about an attack on any lab. Why the hush hush.
-
"The attack 'never happen' according to records. That and the lab was erased from records. You may remember a few gaps in information if you found records on the icebreaker." He calms down slightly, before crouching and picking up his knife, jamming the blade under the hard, chitin-like face of the wizard.

And why did integrate into an Exo system?" Her ghost appears. L:" Am I readying your transport, or has something more important turned up" The condescending tone was grating on Echo. E:"again please ignore, I need to head to Venus to pick up some gear, then I'll be heading to the dreadnaught. There is room for one more if you want to come along"
-
After removing the faces, taken energy moves from the "brain" of the wizard to Hunter's hand. "They wanted to get us out of the picture before we beat them to time travel. As for becoming an Exo, that was a choice made by my surviving friend. They couldn't save her, to my knowledge." He stands. "I guess I'll be joining you."
-
Echo smiled a sad smile, E: "Glad to have you aboard" [spoiler]will have to shut down for the night,can pick up tomorrow,hope to see you there guardian.[/spoiler]
-
Hunter's smile is warmer. "Let's go then." [spoiler]Allright.[/spoiler]

Edited by ChancingIt13: 11/3/2015 10:41:13 AME:" oh, you want to follow on or hitch a ride with me?" Echo dusts herself off , her helmet materialises and she checks her comms.
-
"I'll just hitch a ride," he says, "It'll be easier. Plus, my ship will then be far away enough that they can't get to it, so we can call it over in case of emergency."
-
E:" planning ahead ? Good call, Loop?....Loop, can you transmat us outta here to the Damsel please" Loop appears, if a ghost can look scornful, then that's the expression it gives you both. Echo sighs "comms are up, let's get going". The Damsel is a small two man craft, it's dark on board with nothing but the glow from the console offering light. Echo flips on the auto pilot and slides her seat back. E:"It's a two hour flight other side of the warp leap, if you want to rest up that would be the time to do it, I'll need to give you a quick run down on the locals too but that can wait, anything you want to know just ask." She looks over to Hunter-0 although her helmet hides any indication of what she might be thinking.
-
"It's venus, we should be fine. The only question I have is if you want to see that lab? Or at least what's left of it."
-
E:" sure ,why not, if you think it's good idea, you seemed pretty wound up after I induced that recollection." The dark warmth of the cockpit and the hum of the engines is all encompassing, the occasional whir and click of the pressure regulator lets Echo know everything is all good.
-
"Great," he says with some enthusiasm. In all honesty, the only reason he was going back was to grab some smart-rounds. He figured the equipment there would be very useful. He could go the rest of his life without seeing that place again, except for his requirement of the equipment he forgot last time.
-
She gives him a sideways look (not that he can see). E: " about the locals, I have a base just off the shattered coast, just across the water from the entrance to the archive, been there for nearly 10 years now, whilst I wouldn't call the fallen there my friends, we tolerate each other, I don't shoot them they don't shoot me, more over they watch my place when I am gone. So keep your blade sheathed please, unless there is no other option."

Edited by The Arxfiend: 11/3/2015 3:42:34 PM"I can do that." The red lights of his eyes turn off and on. He focuses in on a monitor, fuel specifically, before breaking his focus. "So, are they still House of Winter, or are they of a different house?"
-
E: " I think they are still house of winter but this group are different,smarter for a start, after my encounter with that vex I told you about I was out cold for a few days, my circuits should have been fried but someone put me back together enough that Loop was able to re access our link, I am pretty certain it was them. Don't get me wrong they have no love for guardians or humans ,but exo's that's something else. I think we signify something to this particular group." She slides her chair upright, E:" and since the Exo existence question is my personal mission, I want to maintain a level of civility with this group, their leader is a vicious bitch though no two ways about it but it's unlikely we will run into her" Echo looks over, " you ready " she smiles.

Edited by The Arxfiend: 11/3/2015 5:36:14 PMHe grins like a child about to do something stupid, and knows it. "Let's go," he cheers, his gravitron forfeit materializing and void energy flows around him. His Taken coloration disappears except for small steam-like wisps around his arms. He stands, his Exo legs making small clicks as they warm up from the movement.

They materialise on the headlands, the light is low the air is humid, there is the sound of the sea below them. Echo summons her sparrow and slings her battered Villany pulse rifle over her shoulder. She puts her foot in the stirrup,leans on the throttle and she is off pushing the sparrow as fast as it will go, leaning hard into each bend , Pushing hard on the brake to kick the tail end out on the sharper corners. A red warning light flashes up on her HUD, she breaks and vaults off . She raises her hand to signal to Hunter-0 as she begins to walk toward the first set of buildings on the shattered coast.

Edited by The Arxfiend: 11/3/2015 6:06:57 PMHe follows 20 meters behind on his own SR-0 Swiftriver. When she stops, he hits hard on his own brakes, flinging him off. He lands next to her face down, flat on the ground, instead of crouching like intended "I swear I meant to do that," he jokes, rolling himself over before popping up. "Ow."
-
E:"Heh heh, classy" She turns to face him E: " there should be a patrol here, and there isn't...obviously..can you feel that? It feels like when you sha..." She doesn't finish her sentence instead she begins to back away drawing her gun tilting her head a little to the right , she looks dead at Hunter and fires...right over his left shoulder, one burst of fire followed by the unmistakable sound of a taken being sent back to hell. E:" Wow !you didn't even flinch, impressive" She is genuinely impressed.
-
He smirks under his helmet. "I've Learned to see where guns are pointed. That prank is so old, last time it got me, I fell off my dinosaur." He looks around. "But we should hurry. Very rarely are Taken ever alone." With this, he steps forward. "lead the way"
-
She leads him down toward the small recon station at the edge of the cliffs. The light is fading and she still can't see her fallen. She switches to infra vision, she see's a couple of vandals crouched low in the doorway near the poster boards. E:" they are there but there should be more, somethings scared them off" She hops down onto walkway of concrete that has been provided from a landslide that happened way before she arrived. She glides up the other side grabs a steel pole and swings herself round to land gently on the hulking piece of land that supports two tower blocks. " This way" she calls, almost skipping along. She's never had a visitor before and finds herself looking forward to it.
-
He uses triple jump to cover the distance, barely making it to the pole, but has no trouble getting to the other side from there. "That was close," he huffs, catching up to her. "You seem happy." He Looks around, careful of what might have scared them off. "I don't see anything yet aside from us and them."
