Exotic History: Touch of Nihil #1

[spoiler]This installment of Exotic History is provided by InvaderMAIR[/spoiler] "Anwell?... Anwell!!" The male Hunter screamed down into the hole. "Can you hear me?!" The two Guardians had been sent on a scouting mission to Venus to uncover Vex technology hidden near the Eternal Steps. Borwin, the human Hunter had lost track of Anwell, his best friend and love affair and he swore he heard something fall in the deep hole that lead into pure Darkness. "D***it Anwell..." Borwin started to wedge his way into the hole. "I'll come find..." "Boo!" Said a voice behind him. Borwin yelped and cracked his head against the hard stone wall, if it wasn't for the helmet he would have a concussion. He grumbled and held his head as he looked behind him. There giggling was Anwell. She was an Awoken and a rookie compared to Borwin's two years experience in the field but she was just as brave, if not braver than most Titans and her quest for knowledge was amazing. She giggled a bit and squated down next to him. "Are you ok?" "No I'm not ok!... You wandering off in such a dangerous place..." "We just killed a Gate Lord no more than a few minutes ago no problem..." "Yea well there's more than that..." He grunted as he sat up. "What were you doing anyway?" "OH!" She grabbed his arm and dragged him near the cliff, pointing frantically at the sky. "See?!" He glanced up to see a few objects flying in the sky. "Yea. Just wildlife." "But they were have said to be the remnants of the Ahamkara." She gazed off at them. "That's just false rumors. They are just wildlife." "Says you." She smacked his side playfully. "You have been wrong before." "But I have also been right." He tapped her visor and she recoiled back as always. He laughed and turned around. "Anyway we should keep looking." "Oh come on... There is no time limit..." "Trust me An, I'd rather sleep in a bed rather than this rock. It makes our sessions more comfortable." Anwell tensed and quickly ran up and slapped his arm. "Borwin!..." "What?! No one is around!" "But there might be Fallen! They could use that against us!" "On I'm sure the Fallen would LOVE to get their hands on a video we made." "We didn't make any..." Borwin's Ghost, a bright green and blue thing named Paulie, popped up. "I wouldn't be too sure of that." Borwin paused and glared at Paulie. "What?" "Oh nothing." Anwell's Ghost, who's name was Chirp and was a red and yellow color appeared next to Paulie. "All I have to say was that it was entertaining." She snickered along with Paulie as they dissapeared quickly. Anwell stood dumbfounded. "Did they just..." "Yep..." Borwin sighed. "Those bird brains just blackmailed us..." The two stood silently for a moment before Borwin decided to continue walking. Anwell quickly came behind and they walked in silence, moving towards one of the Vex themed caverns on the wall. The way inside was pitch-black and not even their HUDs could brighten it up. "Paulie? Light please." His Ghost popped up as a beacon of light as well as Chirp and began to float around, examining the walls. Everyone continued in silence as they walked down the damp corridor until it split off into a crossroad section. Borwin held up his hand and looked down all the corridors. "Ok... I'll go down left, you take right and we will meet back here in a few moments." "Ok..." Anwell pulled out her scout rifle and slowly stalked down the corridor, her Scatter grenade already in hand. Borwin slowly walked down his hallway until it reached a small pylon that glowed slightly in the darkness. "Looks like a thingy." Paulie commented as he scanned it. "Very astute... Where would I be without your skills?..." "Still dead actually so don't get snark with me." Paulie chuckled as he sent the data to Borwin's HUD. "Seems to be a standard Vex pylon, nothing special." "Alright..." Borwin tapped his helmet. "An? Found a pylon here, what do you have?" He waited a few moments. "An?" "All communications are still functional." Paulie commented. "Anwell respond." Borwin waited a moment before speed walking down the hallway again. "I swear woman if you are ignoring me for no reason..." He made it down the way Anwell went and quickly looked around. There was a larger chamber than on his side and what looked like three pylons around another, where Anwell was poking at the barrier that held something inside. "D***it Anwell! I thought..." "Quick!" Anwell tugged on the barrier somehow. "Help me out!" "You shouldn't be messing..." "Just help!" Borwin grumbled and grabbed her by her armor and tugged. "Hey hey! Watch the coat it's new!" "Don't give me that. You told me to help and I'm helping." The two pulled as hard as they could until something gave away and they tumbled to the ground, Anwell falling on top of Borwin. The pylons pulsed particles of light and made high pitch whirling sounds as the glowed to a bright light and exploded, plunging the area into darkness. Their Ghost lit everything up as the two Guardians sturred. "Ow... Anwell you ok baby?..." Borwin asked as he pushed her up into his lap so he could sit up. "Yea I think..." She rubbed her head and paused. "Hey... So that's what was there..." "What?" Borwin looked over her head as she scooped up a weapon from the ground and held it in her hands. It was a rifle in nature and themed loosely on Vex parts ramshackled into place. It glowed a faint purplish hue as Anwell gave a small laugh. "Well we found a new toy! Yay!" https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/217264123/0/0 link to part 2 https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/173504379/0/0/1 link to Touch of Nihil
