The Dark Guardian - Chapter 18: Alive...

Location - Dreadnought Para's POV . . . "You remember Ian... correct?" Savathun said. My head flashed with memories of us... From the Great War to me saving him from my onslaught of thralls... To where he saved me from a bullet. "Yea..." I said. My voice cold as ice. "We all do." "Well... he's alive and he's on his way to Earth right now. But... he's no longer a-" I didn't hear her last words... I forced a portal open and lunged into the orbit of Earth. [b]Ian is ALIVE?!![/b] How is this... possible? I stood up and spread my wings. Cameron and Sara yelled at me to stop... but I summoned a portal and dove through it at lightspeed... ended up in the orbit of Earth. I was on autopilot now. My eyes scanned the area for a ship... I waited and waited. Then I saw it. A beaten up ship that had just broken it's Warp Drive. [b]Ian[/b] I dashed toward the ship and hooked on to the bottom of it just as it broke orbit into Earth. I lept off just as it came into Tower view and threw a tracker on it. I dashed into an alleyway and threw on my cloak for whenever I come to the city. My body collapsed and my tears began to fall. Then laughing consumed me. Ian is [i]alive![/i] I still couldn't believe it. Then I realized it... Ian was a Guardian. Tex's POV I felt my ghost tear me from my ship and onto the Courtyard of the tower. Or whatever the Ghost said it was. I took in everything. The Bounty Master, the Cryptarch, Shaxx, and Saladin, even Tess... even though I had a bad feeling about her. My boots hit the floor as all eyes fell on me when I walked into the Vanguard hall. Cayde-6's exo eyes fell on me hard. But I stared right back as he tried to look into my light. Then he changed in a heartbeat. "Welcome to the tower new Guardian!" He said with a hint of worry in his voice. I looked at Zavala and Ikora to see anything on they're faces. Nothing... except Zavala had a hint of fear in his voice. "So... your name is Tex... Nice name. Anyways, you'll be given a new set of armor and guns. So go and follow your Ghost. He should know where Banshee is. Correct?" My Ghost nodded and started to lead the way. I felt eyes on me the whole way there. Especially the Speakers...
