Prologue
So here I am, fighting for a lost friggin cause! There is no way every last person in this city is going to make it out alive, the so called "fallen" will over run us soon and we cannot save the people or the city!
"Grenade!" Yelled Jimmy, just as it blew him up. Then a Captain came over the hill, and will probably finish us off. I went to shoot, but the familiar click of the empty clip came up. As luck would have it, he target. I turned tail and ran and heard a grenade.
* good long while after death*
"Hey guardian, eyes up," said something mechanized by sound of its voice, not an exo like me though, then something kicked me in the side, "Hey! Orange exo! Get up!" said a more human voice, female. "Don't court martial me for sleeping on the job pease? Got knocked out by a grenade!" I firmly stated getting up, eyes powering up. "The hell you talking about? You've been dead for over 5 centuries," said the female. Me being dead for awhile was true, judging by the long since burned military tents and rusted exo shells and skeletons.
"so how am I alive?" I asked. The white, floating thingy with a blue eye, obviously the nicer of the two, responded "me, I brought you back with the light, I'm a ghost, your ghost, created by the traveller to find guardians,""Ok" I said "and what's your name?" I ask the female, a skinny fellow with some curves, had what looked like armour with a hood and helmet,"Sydney" she said,"what's yours?" She asked '' "Rufus" I responded. "Spike, summon my ship" Said Sydney."Who's that?" I asked "My ghost" she responded "I am going back to the city, you are staying here, mission:survive out here for 24 hours, if you find a ship feel free to come to the tower. Bye." Now this is an outrage! I died running from the fallen! At least I still have my gun and leftover ammunition.
Then she vanished and it was me and my ghost. "What all can you do?" "Anything a piece of technology that is not lethal can do minus a few things"responded the ghost"Then can you like scan for a ship?" I asked, just as a stealth vandal tried to jump me, but I stuck my hand out and a wave of blue shot out push the vandel back, then i took my rifle and shot it between the eyes."Yes I can," it responded. "Send me in the right direction please and thank you" I said.
It did, by a gray marker up on my hud, then I actually looked at it there was a white bar at the top, I'm guessing shielding or something like that, There was also a radar(I'm guessing,I'll find out soon enough),and probably the most useful, an ammo counter!
Then I began my walk into god knows where and god knows what.
