A/N: This is my first shipping fanfic (mainly because i think i'm gonna suck at writing romance but that's besides the point) do let me know what you guys think, and on another note i've been repeatedly brought up on my grammar so i thought i'd explain why it's so bad, i've suffered from a learning disorder my entire life and because of this it affects my grammar, so apologies but there's nothing i can do, anyway, back to the point this is a Rhino X Valkyr story so if that's not your thing, just don't read it, and with that, enjoy.
Chapter 1: pain and salvation.
Pain.
That was all she felt.
Day after day.
They had dismantled her warframe and ripped every orokin secret from her body.
She wished for death every day.
Until she found something better.
Love, friendship and most of all, freedom from all the pain, from the suffering, from him...
Rhino's P.O.V
"We need you to rescue a tenno from Alad V's lab, break in through the air ducts and kill everyone there, there is a box waiting for you at the dock, take it with you, it's her weapons, the ones you purchased for her, once you've freed her there will be a team waiting in the tenno recycling room, along with Alad V and Zanuka, kill them, and take her with you, on the offchance that she is injured, take her to the cargo dock and evacuate, the team will deal with Alad V" Lotus ordered, I grabbed the box and tossed it into the air ducts, following lotus's guidelines to the Lab, finding the series of vents on the ceiling of the lab i looked through all of them, searching for the best one to use strategically, one of them was directly above her, they were removing her helmet, and i saw on the table next to her, a syringe, containing a blue liquid, i quickly selected another vent and drew my fragor, then i hopped down, dragging the box with me.
Valkyr's P.O.V
They removed my helmet and i saw one preparing a syringe, I struggled against my bonds but it seemed futile, they injected a sedative that paralysed everything below my neck until a huge weight came crashing through the vent nearby, i heard the crewmen screaming something in their language, one activated the lockdown and I heard a sickening crack and one went flying over me, into the one holding the syringe, knocking him flying, i heard MOA deploy and then a crunch as something solid met their fragile frame, i was unable to look up the entire time, until someone loosened my bonds, i attempted to sit up, but my time strapped to this one table combined with the sedative they had given me made it impossible, i looked up to see a tenno at the control console, i sighed then looked to my right, and saw the one preparing the needle struggling under his fallen comrade, screaming and whimpering, the tenno drew a gigantic hammer from his back and approach the struggling man, who was begging in his own language for mercy but the tenno drew up the hammer and brought it down with an almighty amount of force, crushing his skull, blood spattered everywhere, the tenno then holstered his hammer and approached me, "Can you walk?" he asked, "no... they've injected something into my bloodstream that's paralysed everything below my neck, not sure how long it will last." I replied quietly "ok,i'm going to have to carry you to the evac point, is that ok?" he asked, "it's fine." I replied quickly, he placed a hand behind my shoulder to help me sit up and i whimpered slightly due to the pain of injuries sustained during their "research" and they had negated to treat, "What's wrong?" he asked, a genuine tone of concern in his voice, "Jus injuries they failed to treat during their so called research, i'l be fine." I lied, they were excruciatingly painful, he placed a hand to the side of his head and activated what i assume is a communication system, "I need medical assistance ready at the dock for when i get back..." he said before removing his hand, he strapped a pack to my side, "what's in the pack?" i asked, "Equipment purchased for your use" he replied, "By who?" i asked again "Me" he bluntly replied before he stuffed my helmet in the pack as well.
Rhino's P.O.V
"Holy shit, she's Fucking beautiful"rhino thought to himself as he lifted her up, her skin tone was relatively pale, dark brown hair with gold streaks in it and deep green eyes, she clung onto me with a death grip and was pulling herself close to my chest, whimpering slightly, i held onto her with one arm, the other had my Vasto Prime, drawn and ready, i made my way to the cargo bay, shooting anything in my path, upon reaching the cargo bay, the evac ship entered the bay and the assasination team left the ship "Oh, have you come to make a donation to my latest enterprise, or rather a withdrawl!" an angry but familiar voice called from behind us,i spun round and pointed my Vasto Prime at his head...
Valkyr's P.O.V
As my rescuer spun round i felt a huge amout of rage boil within me, I regained movement in my arms and i lifted it, launching an energy based grapple to the accursed man's neck and pulled him past us, he screamed as we flew past me, straight onto the blade of another tenno, a large spear with a curved single edged blade at one end, the tenno had a dome shaped helmet that had energy swirling within, she swung her blade and knocked him back, then my rescuer put his gold plated revolver to the accursed man's head and fired, he collapsed to the floor, dead, i felt a grim satisfsaction, however memories soon began to rise agian, traumatic memories, memories I wanted to forget, i pulled myself closer to my rescuers chest, whimpering softly, he drew me into a hug and whispered soothingly in my ear, "It's ok, you're safe now." His voice had a genuine tone of concern in it, "i know, just bad memories, about him, Alad V..." i whimpered as i curled up into a ball, he took my hand and again picked me up, due to the fact i had yet to regain movement in my legs and carried me to the escape ship, I finally felt safe, I finally felt free
