[i]But whom is the accursed? His light is poison in my soul, as painful as I ever am to he. Unjustly tried. Unjustly judged. We are one and the same, my bearer and I.[/i] The viosin fades back to reveal a battlefield. Fionn, Pox, and an Exo Hunter stand together against a horde of Fallen. Pox wields the very same bone knife Fionn now wields as she fights off a pair of Dregs. Fionn stands on a nearby rooftop, sniping tge enemy while the Exo, Chrome, attempts to close a pair of blast doors leading into a bunker. Pox stands in the bunker entry, keeping Chrome safe.

"Why must you act like a parasite? You were once noble."
-
[i]Yes. Noble we stood once, a mighty race. Until the children of light attacked. They hunted us, slaughtered us. Smashed our eggs and burned our nests. All for what reason? Fear.[/i] The Ahmkara growls. Fionn is ambushed by a Captain, which grabs his throat and lifts him up. Pox sees him and hurls her knife at the Fallen, killing it. Fionn grabs the knife and uses it to defend himself as more move in on him. "I need ta move, there's too many. I'll try an link up with ya on the other side!" He shouts, leaping from the roof. "Hurry up, partner!" Chrome replies witha southern drawl. Just then the blast doors clirse, cealing him and Pox inside.
-
"Mirror mirror," She mutters.
-
[i]Darkness and vengeance. Death and ruin. That is my lot. This one, the bearer of mine, promised me something sweeter than life.[/i] Fionn fights his way through the Fallen, eventually making it to the blast door. Above them, a ketch appears. Skiff after skiff drops down. "Fionn! Our transmat is being jammed! They're getting inside the bunker!" Pox shouts. Suddenly, they hear the two words none wish to hear. "Guardian down! Chrome is down!"
-
The vision shifts. Replication Chamber: Sarah, a Titan and a Hunter are trying to escape the explosion roaring behind them. The Hunter gets stuck, but Sarah and the Titan runs along. As soon as they make it out of there, the Titan does a headcount, "One, two... where's Mark?" The Titan was James. They turn around to see that the Mark's foot was caught on a SIVA tendril. Sarah throws off her helmet and drops her hand cannon, the Eyasluna. "Sarah, there won't be enough time..." Lunar says. She bolts in, James shouting her name. Using her hand, she burns off the tendril, pulls up Mark, and pushes him towards the door. The Hunter barely makes it out, and James is banging on the closed door, crying, and repeating her name. "Sarah! Sarah! Sarah! No. No. No..."
-
She suddenly hears a voice that sounds like Fionn's. "How'd ya make it out o' there?"
-
"That's when I awakened the Phoenix again, to survive the explosion."
-
A ghostly image of Fionn appears. "I'm glad you survived, Lady Warlock." He says, smiling. "I already lost enough people to explosions."
-
"What happened next was the worst journey of my life."
-
"Same for me. Tha' bunker you saw... It was full o' nuclear warheads from pre golden age Russia. Pox detonated it to ty an' keep 'em away from the Fallen."
-
"I guess it worked. Either way, the Eliksni hate us."
-
"I killed their entire house afterwards..." He adds.
-
"The Fallen really hate you, then."
-
"The feeling is mutual. Why do ya think I was banned from the Reef? I took off one o' Variks' arms."
-
"Oh gosh."
-
He nods, looking ashamed. Around them, the image changes to show what appears to be the remains of the Russian bunker. Wisp appears, reviving Fionn from the explosion. The Hunter stands there in shock, staring at the ruins. "Scan for them!" He finally shouts. "I did. They're... Dead. I'm sorry." Fionn collapses to his knees, sobbing. "I died seven times from radiation poisoning before I escaped the area. Then I hunted them. They killed me at least a doezen more times 'afore I found the knife. I bonded with it because I wanted vengeance for Pox, an' it gave me the power ta kill a Fallen house."
-
"Finny wake up. I'm sick of hallucinating," She said, "I love learning about you but the visions are rememinding me of bad things."
-
He smiles. "You're right. I need to wake up." The visions fade as he begins to wake up. Just before she returms to reality, Sarah sees a vision of Pox, who waves at her. "Take care of him for me. Please." She says, just before Sarah awakens.
-
She wakes up, her wings completely golden, her skin was smoldering and found herself in the snow, James standing above her. She sat up. "I'm sorry sweetie," he told her. "What? James what did you do?" "I stabbed him. Put him out of his misery, and saved you from burning to death..." "No!" Sarah cried, "No! No! No! No! No!"
-
Fionn lies lifeless nearby, smoke still rising from his body. Wisp floats around his body. "Oh dear..."
-
She got up to her feet, and pulled her Dark-Drinker off her back, and stabbed James in the stomach before he could react. She pulled out the sword. He fell to his knees, grabbing the wound. Sarah ran to Fionn. "Finny!" She cried, kneeling next to his body. She put her hand on the stab wound, her skin glowing, and her wings were golden. But her aura was burning her, she willed herself to stop healing him. Her wings turned duke blue. Tears ran down her cheeks like rivers, "Finny, I'm sorry."
-
Wisp scans him. "I... I can revive him. But..."
-
Her eyes were already red from crying, so it is was scary when she looked at Wisp and said, "Just do it..."
