Loud cursing can be heard from Fionn's ship, followed by a sprayvof sparks.
"Argh! C'mon ya bloo'y piece o' trash!"
The Irish Hunter yells, his fist colliding with the remnants of a Vex spire.
"Turn... On!"
"It's almost working! I'm starting to get a signal!"
His Ghost, Wisp, shouts excitedly.
"Try to boost the energy output!"
Fionn takes the small section of spire in his hand, attempting to channel Arc energy into it.
Unfortunately for him, he was a gunslinger for a reason. Not a bladedancer.
With a cry and a shower of sparks, the Hunter is thrown backwards out of his ship, landing in a smoking heap on the floor.
"Bloo'y 'ell..."
He groans.
Slowly sitting up, he notices he has a spectator.
"Eh? Whata ya want?"
He asks sourly,
[spoiler]Open. You are the spectator.[/spoiler]

"You realise your ghost could do the welding, while you tell it what to do, right?" The voice came from a young man of about 20, who was leaning on a nearby pillar.
-
"Welding? Mate, I'm naw tryin' to weld anythin'."
-
"Well whatever you're doing. Ghosts don't exactly have niche uses."

"Oh nothing really just watching you fail controling electricity which is kinda funny"she says [i]the woman that watched him was covered bluish green scales and had long black hair pulled into a long braid. She also had two different colored eyes one was blue grey and the other was bright green. She was wearing a grey t-shirt and black pants she was on the shorter side only being 5'2" in height. [/i] "I could help if you want i am a electric type dragon that is if you want me too that is..."she says [i]she then make a couple small arcs of electricity jump between her fingers between on her right hand with ease.[/i] "The name is lola hayes"she says [spoiler]she trumps any arc using destiny character lol[/spoiler]
-
The Hunter slowly pushes himself to his feet, smoke curling off his armor. "You can try an' help, I suppose. Be warned, the one time I actually got this to work, it blew up after a few seconds." He brushes some soot off his shoulder.
-
"Oh it can't be that hard and im not worry about something like that but show me what you charged."says lola [i]she could very easily charge whatever he needed without any real risk cause she was tougher than she looked.[/i]
-
He walks back to his ship, pulling out a small, glowing piece of... Something. "This is a piece o' Vex spire. I've been trying ta power it up so I can contact my friends back home. Problem is it ain't in good condition, an' won't keep a charge ling withou' blowing up." He tells her.
-
"I'm pretty sure i can get to hold a charge long enough for you contact your friends and not worried about being blown up let me see it"says lola [i]she holds out her hand.[/i]
-
He hands it to her. "Tha' would be very much appreciated, thank you."
-
"Yeah its no trouble"says lola [i]she takes it holding with both hands and start channeling electricity into which can be easily seen as arcs of electricity pass over her hands into it. Before long its holding a descent charge and hasn't blown up at all yet.[/i] "Just let me know when you wanna try communicating with them cause it will still have power as long as holding onto it"says lola
-
"I'm going to try now, keep it steady." His Ghost appears, scanning the glowing spire. "Ok, comms are up. I suggest being quick, it's still not completely stable." He nods.
-
"Okay i will try as long as i can to keep it steady"says Lola [i]she is doing her best to keep it steady as she holds it long enough for him to communicate. [/i]

"Hello? This is Guardian McNamara to the Tower. Cayde? You read me?" There's silence for a moment before Cayde's voice can be heard. "Fionn? Yeah, we hear you. You find a way back yet?" "Still working on it. Could you put my sister on the line?" "Sure, hold on a sec." Elevator music plays.
-
[i]she remained silent as he was talking. She just listen and waited.[/i]
-
The music ends and the voice of a young girl can be heard. "Fionn? Is that you?" Fionn's face lights up. "Hey sis, just thought I'd call in an' wish ya a happy birthday."
-
[i]lola remains quiet as he talks to his sister. She is more focused at the task hand so that nothing goes wrong. [/i]
-
"Are you going to be home for my party?" His sister asks. He winces. "I... I really with I could, Bree. But I'm stuck in another time stream." "I heard." "I'm really sorry, sis. I wish I could be there." He looks extremely sad. The piece of spire begins to heat up, it's core simply too damaged to keep a charge for long.
-
[i]lola can feeling it starting to get hot in her hands as she holds it. She's knows its only a matter of time before it blows up and her scaled skin can only withstand so much heat for only so long. [/i] "This thing is getting hot"says lola
-
"I've got to go, sis. I'm sorry I couldn't make it. Love you." Fionn says. "... I love you too, bro. See you around. Be safe." The signal ends. "It's going to blow! Run!" Fionn's Ghost screams.
