At the edge of the abyss
Jay was sitting quietly at Crota's end it had been a while and after killing aksis it was a nice release from reality. The subtle burn from the sulphuric air filling his lungs. Jay thought about the queen of the reef. His thoughts always drifted to her after he killed oryx. He missed her, he knew he wasn't the only one it was obvious Petra missed her too but he couldn't help but feel as though he was the only one. He missed Mara Sov more than he should he missed her smell,her laugh, her smile and he missed the feeling of her lips. Yes he was involved... with the queen. He knew she was alive he didn't know how or where she was but he knew she was alive, she had to be. Jay grabbed his hand cannon. He stared at it. It looked like hawkmoon, he chuckled thinking well it used to be a hawkmoon. Jay saw the taken energy spiralling out of the barrel. The hand cannon was taken, stars shined throughout the gun. He knew he shouldn't have this power he took it and he knew that if Zavala found out he would probably be exiled from the tower. Jay's eyes flitted back to the gun he stared getting lost in the dark of the gun. He sighed and got up walking over he picked up black spindle the taken energy spiralling down the gun slinging the weapon over his shoulder he stared off into the distance. Jay realized he doesn't have an ascendant realm of his own and yet if he did it would be huge. He said"Helena remind me to try and get an ascendant plane some time." His ghost said"don't you already have one considering you need to reach a certain point In the sword logic and you know you've killed a few gods." Jay nodded and wondered how to access his ascendant plane. Jay stood up his cloak swaying in the gentle breeze. His desolate cloak hanging off his shoulders, the crunch of dirt underneath his desolate boots the subtle weight of his desolate vest on his chest his desolate grips surrounding the handle of his hand cannon which he had named lost desires. Jay picked up his helmet and put it on the desolate cover shrouding his face in darkness. He walked over to the entrance and as he looked up he saw the piercing light shine through the maw of the hellmouth. He chuckled and disappeared as his ship transmatted him into he said"helana set course for the tower." She said"all right where on our way." The two arrived and saw the tower in flames. Jay said"shit set us down for a second then land the ship outside the city limits activate the auto weapon systems." Helana said"got I'll see you in a minute." Jay dropped out onto the ledge and pulling out lost desires he readied the hand cannon. Walking forward he wandered on then the door snapped open and two cabal legionaries pulled there weapons up and went to fire on jay who shot one with his gun then threw his knife into the other legionnaire. Stepping over the corpses and wrenching his knife from the cabal soldiers skull. Jay walked forwards and said"helana we need to find shaxx." Helana appeared beside him saying"he's near the armory let's move." Jay nodded and walked through the hall two legionaries walk around the corner jay quickly threw a smoke bomb and voidwall grenade at the corner both legionaries were blinded and choking. Jay rolled behind one and slit his throat, outstretching his gun to the side in a single trigger pull he shot him in the face. Jay continued walking when a door slammed open cayde leaning on the door said"gimme a minute need to take care of this." Summoning a gun of pure solar light cayde fired three shots in quick succession killing three cabal legionaries. Jay asked"cayde what the hell is going on." Cayde said"cabal are attacking Ikora identified them as red legion." Jay said"alright what's happening." Cayde said"Ikora is trying to find the speaker and Zavala is protecting the civilians to get them out of the city." Jay asked"and what are you going to do?" Cayde replied"me oh I've got a date with whoever's behind this trust me it'll be a short date." Cayde disappears jay groaned saying"this isn't going to be fun." He instantly regretted coming back groaning"son of a bitch."...
