Wisp floats by, looking worried and murmuring to himself.
"Oh... Now he's really done it. Why is he allways running off like this? Not even Cayde is this bad!"
He sounds very distressed, and Fionn is nowhere to be seen.

"Huh?" Sarah got to her feet. "Where's Fionn?"
-
Wips notices her. "I don't know! He ran off into the moutains for some reason! I started to pick up traces of darkness around him, and when I confronted him, he took off!" He floats around worriedly.
-
"What? Lock on him!" Sarah yells, putting her helmet on.
-
"You think I didn't try that? I can't find him! It's like his light just... Stopped. I know he's alive, but it's like he's hiding from me!"

-
"I... He just popped back up! Sending coordinates." Lunar gets a series of coordinates.
-
"Pinpointing signal, mountains, tallest one," Lunar said, "Also, I got Mia on the comms." [i]"Been a while, sis. What's the trouble?"[/i] "This Hunter we're tracking, has a Darkness signature for some reason." [i]"Oh, you mean the dude I just tethered?"[/i] Sarah rolled her eyes.
-
"I'll meet you there." Wisp vanishes.
-
"Lunar, transmat to the coordinates."
-
They arrive on top of the mountain, snow blowing around them and making it hard to see. "Fionn?! Are you there?" Wisp is calling for him. Sarah and Lunar can sense darkness around them.
-
A glow of Void Light appeared in the distance. Sarah ran toward the Light, to find a Hunter in standard Bog Gear holding a knife to Fionn's throat. Three tethers bound him to the mountain.
-
Fionn looks extremely annoyed. "Abou' bloo'y time ya got 'ere! This psycho attacked me!" He scowls.
-
The Hunter chuckled, "I don't know if you noticed, but something's twisting your Light. I noticed. So I hunted." "Mia-- your habits are questionable," Sarah says.
-
"Can ya please release me?"
-
"In a few minutes," Mia promises, "After you explain yo' self."
-
"An' what would I have to explain?" He looks sickly, almost poisoned. His face is pale and his eyes are bloodshot.
-
Sarah takes off her helmet and sets it on the ground. She studied Fionn, and saw something, "What happened, Fionn?" Mia shouted, "You know him?"
-
He sits there, still looking sickly. "Whata ya mean?" He asks. There seems to be something mixed with his light. A darkness of sorts.
-
Sarah's eyes filled with worry, "Your light... it's twisted. With Darkness. What happened?"
-
He looks down at the ground, refusing to answer. "I'm detecting... His knife! Gwt it away from him! It's causing this!" Wisp exclaims.
-
Mia had seemingly disappeared, but she took Fionn's knife then, reappered. Sarah engulfed herself in flame, took the blade, and attempted to melt it.
-
"NO!" Fionn screams, seemingly in agony, and thrashes around. The blade, which appears to be made of bone, refuses to melt. It seems to drink in the fire, absorbing it's light like a black hole.
-
"Fionn... why would you--" Sarah stopped mid-sentence. "Sarah, let me inspect the knife," Mia said. Sarah hands Mia the blade, then collapses. "Oh my! Sarah!" She drops the knife, then collapses on top of her sister.
-
Fionn has collapsed to his knees, panting. "Don't touch the knife!" Wisp warns. "It will try to eat your light!"
-
The Hunter and the Warlock remained collapsed from holding the knife, but who rose was a different story. Sarah's eyes turned Taken colors, and grew wings of fire that were black. She got to her feet and she picked up the blade, smiling.
