All is fair in Love and Crucible, Part 1

The afternoon light slowly dims over the horizon, as the sight of the traveler keep small flames of hope alight in the many lives in the city below. Angel takes in this sight at the edge of the vaults she listens to the coming and goings of other Guardians in the Tower. Behind her she hears the familiar steps of her friend Demon. Turning ever so slightly she nods to Demon. “How is Demon today?” she asks nicely trying to not start a fight. Sighing slightly the Titan walks forward “Angel please not today it’s not my fault we are in this mess,” he tries to reason with her. Giving him a look she turns and jabs a finger in his face. “It is too your fault, for three years now we have lied it is your fault tha—“ cutting off from her sentence she spies Envy striding over with a slight mischievous grin on his face. Stepping back she just shrugs at Demon and awaits what Envy is going to do. Coming up behind the Titan Envy lightly pats the Titans firm cheeks, which where padded with armor, with his hand grinning broadly. “Hey there you Titan of a man,” he suavely says to Demon as the Titan coughs and his face flushes side stepping the Hunter a bit. Giving the Hunter a stern look he crosses his arms. “You know I do not like it when you touch me like that,” the Titan says again for the hundredth time to the Hunter. Looking over Envy, his short Green hair with yellow streaks and his pale blue skin and bright glowing green eyes the Awoken was something that would put any human off at first glance. Looking back to Angel who was just shaking her head, which had a bob of silver hair and piercing eyes similar to Envy’s with that glow and pale bluish skin. He wonders how they don’t find their eyes distracting, but shrugs it off. He himself was tall with a lot of muscle mass and brown hair and lightly tanned skin, Human of course. The Hunter just chuckles slightly as he gives the Titan a knowing look. “I know you don’t and that is precisely why I do it, come now it wouldn’t be fun if we didn’t tease each other,” the Hunter laughs a bit as he says this. Grunting Demon taps his gun on his side. “Want to settle this in the Crucible then? You win you can do whatever you want.” As he says this he can see the Hunters eyes go alight with possibilities making the Titan shiver inwardly a bit. “I win you never touch me again, deal?” The Titan holds out his hand. Pondering the possibilities of what this offer could have and the many different outcomes the Hunter sits and thinks. He could win and finally get what he has always wanted out of the Titan or if he lost he would lose even casual contact. While he ponders this over Angel steps from side to side mostly just talking to herself but loud enough for the other two to hear. “Men and their guns touchy regardless of which one they talk about,” she rolls her eyes looking between them and sighs as they shake hands. The Hunter laughs and jabs the Titans shoulder with a finger. “When I win I will make all my dreams come true just so you know,” the Titan pushes him away with a hand and calls for his Ghost. “Oh really now but when I win you won’t have anything to do with me again,” almost smug the Titan thinks he can win this easily compared to the Hunter he was a mass of strength and defense. That puny little Hunter would never be able to get through him at all. He also knows that when it comes to mind games that Hunter is extremely dangerous and needs to be careful of anything he says. Hefting his shoulders slightly the three transmat to their respective ships and head off to a place of battle for just the two. In the ship the Titan dons his helm and looks to his ghost. “Think I got a chance of winning against that hunter?” he asks his Ghost. “The Ghost looks at him. “If it were a fair one on one I would say yes, but that Hunter is quite the trickster you need to be on your toes otherwise you will lose,” the ghost explains to Demon. Sighing slightly Demon just readies his weapons as the ghost transmats him down to the area on Venus they will be fighting each other.
