The Sol System, home of the Human-race had gone through many battle caused by the arrival of many visitors from outer space, The Cabal, The Vex, The Hive, and The Fallen. They all have come to take, to destroy but they have been denied from their goal by the Warrior of Mankind, the Warrior that have been raise from the death to protect the future of our race. They are the Guardian.
Now three Guardian, are flying in the depth of space in their ship to on their way to Venus after having a report from Ana Bray that Rasputin had been picking up strange energy signal recently in the planet orbit.
"Hey, Nat," said a man look like in his twenty with a sideburn hair and blue eye inside his Arcadia-class jumpship to one of his companion that was flying alongside him.
"Yeah, What is it Jay?" a woman with a long burning red hair respond. She is the occupant of the Minerva-class jumpship flying to the left of the man named Jay's ship.
"What do you think we going to find in Venus?" Jay asked.
"Don't know yet, but it is Venus, probably some type of Vex system or Fallen experiment."
"Yeah, that truth. Do you want to make a bet."
"What kind of bet?"
"Betting that the signal is coming from the Vex or the Fallen"
"Then I'm betting Vex"
"I'm was going to bet on the Vex"
"And if it really some kind of Vex new tech, I'm having you test it first."
"What! Why?"
"You hunter had the gift of testing Vex tech isn't it. I hear that Cayde getting himself trap in a Vex gate system on Nessus to know how they work and use the same Vex gate to drop the Hero onto Ghaul's Ship." After hearing this both of them bust into laugh.
"Yeah, I hear that story too. Speaking of which I haven't see Cayde in the Tower lately. Rumor had it that he sneak out of the Tower to go on a date with Petra out of the Reef."
"If Cayde-6 had any chance dating Petra Venji, then I'm a man make from flesh and blood" came the third voice with a light heart and mechanic tone in its. The owner of that voice is a very bulky man with a face make out of red and black metal, his eye and mouth are glowing red and in the place of normal people, eye brow is Two sides wayed antenna. He is currently flying in front of his teammate in his Hawk-class jumpship.
"Jerry! How are you here? How much did you hear about our little conversation"
"I hear it all. You left your little betting pool on the team frequency."
"Oops. My bad, so what do you think going to find on Venus orbit."
"You going to have your answer James because we are reaching Venus orbit"
"Coming out of Jumps space in 5…4…3…2...1" James ghost, Jen, told him "And we are here".
After return to normal space, three friends began to move to the coordinate that the signal originate. What they find was the construction of a giant ring-shaped object clearly being made by Vex, with multiple Vex Harppy with all type of shape and size circling it . The sight of the device make the Guardian nervous, they had never seen anything that big, they heard about the Almighty but never seen it up close.
"That looks like a giant Vex time gates aren't it?" James asked his teammates over the COM.
"Wait a moment," Nat said before turning to her ghost "Mary, I want you to pull every the data we have on Vex gates, and runs a scan on that thing" she requested, hoping her little friend will have some good news.
A couple of moment later Mary return "I run the scan Nat, that thing out there IS a Vex time gate and a large one. Lucky I seem only finish about 65%, and with the Vex resource that we had been kept in check, it will be a long time before they can remake another one if we destroy it now."
"You heard what she said, we need to destroy that thing now." Jerry ordered.
As soon as the order was given, the trio rushed toward the giant gate. This had finally caught the attention of the Harppies in the area, and they began to move against the Guardians to protect their construct. The Guardian's ship tank everything that the Harppies throw at them while shredding through the Harppies horde to reach the Gate. As soon as they reach the gate, they began to unload all of their weapon to the construct, causing it to began to explode.
"Good work guys, now let's get out of here before we get caught in the explosion" Jerry declared.
"Yeah. By the ways Jay, you owe me a drink"
"What?"
"You lose the bet."
"Ok fine. When we get back the first round is on me." James just finished his sentence when his ship shook and he found himself and his friend wasn't moving despite their engine is still running "What is happening"
"Look like the explosion had active the gate reactor, it is activating. It still going to blow up but the gravity well of the gate is going to drag us toward the portal, like a black hole." Jerry ghost, Dan, said after seeing the reading.
"Fuck, we need to get out of here fast." James yell "We are pushing it with everything it got, we not gonna get out of here in one piece." Jen said
"Crap. Change of plan, I'm going in"
"You what !"
"We can't escape the gravity well, we stay here then we going to die in the explosion. Our best bet is go through the gate and hope the other side is anything better than this"
"You are taking our life in a bet !" Nat yelled, "You are bad with bets !"
"Hey! I'm a Hunter, we always take everything as a bet. And besides, according to our bet, I'm supposed to go through the Gate anyway." James finished, turn his ship around and head into the portal.
"James!" Nat call out to her friend.
"You know he is right Natalia," Jerry said before turning his ships back and headed after James.
Natalia turns to her ghost only to be met with a nod by her small partner. She sends a signal to her friend Ana Bray to let her know what had happened then turned back and heading after her teammate.
"If we die I'm going to kill you, James Smith," she said under her breath before entering the portal

A few moments had passed since when the team had headed through the giant unstable Vex gate, they had managed to right themselves inside the energy tube and now flying in their normal formation. No one had said a word since entering the gate as no one know what to said and they are preparing for the worst, the other side of the gate is a sea of Vex.
"Look alive people, we are reaching our stop." Dan said getting everyone attention.
"What the plan boss," James asked
"Let's see where we are before thinking about anything else" Jerry give him a short answer as they prepare to exit the gateway.
When the trio exit the gateway they were caught by surprise, not because of the sea of Vex ready to blast them out of the sky. It was empty, the space area that they appear is empty, there isn't any trace of Vex signal or a gate that they suppose to go through, there was nothing. The only thing they have on sensor is a planet that can support human life and an outbound signal from the said planet.
"Guy, I'm picking up a signal coming from a planet in this system! Look like someone is jamming it but I can still pull through the signal" Natalie said
"Let's hear it then"
"This is the Human Colony Horizon! To anyone hearing this! We are under attack by an unknown force! I repeat we are under attack! They are taking everyone! Please help!" the signal being broadcast through the team frequecy had cause both confusion and worry for the guardians.
"This they just said a human Colony!? I thought we lost all of those when the Darkness hit us!" James said in shock.
"Wait a minute James, let's not get ahead of ourself. From all the information we had about human colony, there wasn't any mention of the name Horizon. Plus they are saying they getting attack and taken by unknown force, none of our enemies do that." Nat said, causing more confusion into the mix.
"Does it even matter right now. They claim to be human and is under attack, that is enough reason for me. Let's move guardian, we got people to save." Jarry declared as he sped off to the colony with James and Natalie in tow
A.N: First things first, I'm a D2 PC player so there bound to have some things that people will prefer that I didn't include. And in my opinion the strike and patrol that happen in games are not exactly our Guardian doing everything, there are many guardians in the system so it would be logic that some event that we do in the game is being done by other people in the universe.
-about the dialogue: Bold is for synthetic( Exo, Geth, Reaper, and EDI in Eva body); Italic is for female; Underline is for general signals like SOS or New, and Ghost and EDI through the Normandy intercom. This is for when multiple people speak continuously with each other.
