I don't own Destiny or Marvel.
I hope you enjoy.
"Jason, I don't think this is a good idea," A black sphere with a ring around it, said to a large blue-faced man covered in armor down from his shoulders as they walked down a path surrounded green rocks and broken trees. The blue man stopped and looked back at the sphere, "Mara is dead Kalais, the queen I served is gone and she has been for some time the only reason I stayed was because Petra asked me to." The blue man spoke with sadness in his voice, the floating sphere seemed to look down.
"We have been around for a long time my friend; we have served the queen of the awoken since the dark ages. We have been creating, fighting, advising, exploring, and aiding humanity as we've needed to." Jason spoke to the sphere which seemed to perk up at the memories before they continued down a path and jumped over a puddle of glowing liquid. "The queen has passed without an heir and the prince is in prison, which he completely had coming" Jason added trying to be mirthful at the end the ring around the sphere spun as if to show joy.
"I get all this, but the last city is still being rebuilt from the war and, Ada might need your help again" The sphere reasoned and the large man smiled, "first, I'm not the biggest fan of the vanguard most the time, and Ada has started allowing those Guardians into most of the forges. Besides this is something that will help them we're leaving to find new material and make new weapons," Jason countered, smiling clearly excited about the prospect of leaving. "You know despite how old you are, you can be a child sometimes" the sphere spoke, the blue man rolled his glowing eyes.
"Shut it you old Ghost" he simply said while they turned a corner the ghost immediately dissolved hiding away. While a dark gray helmet with and obtuse slit allowing for sight materialized on the man's head. Jason then pulled a hand cannon from his thigh that had a dark glow coming from the cylinder while the barrel seemed impractical as it had many slits in it.

I looked down the path I was walking on looking at a small contingent of Taken. Four thrall, two phalanx, and a captain, I moved forward slowly pulling a magnetic grenade from my belt I lobbed it at the phalanx in the middle it stuck to the outside of his shield before popping the first explosion of void energy killed the phalanx and the thrall. The second damaged the other phalanx and removed the captain's energy shield I aimed my hand cannon and unloaded four rounds into the reeling phalanx killing him quickly then unloaded another five into the captain before holstering my cannon and walking forward again. The captain moved to attack me before the rounds previously fired into him began to explode individually knocking him back before the last explosion killed him.
I walked past the bodies watching as they imploded in on themselves, and my helmet disappeared and Kalais reappeared. "As I was saying before I think we should stay here so we can actually help people. On the topic of here, why are we on Io?" Kalais questioned I turned to a canyon before I began my explanation "Io was the last place the Traveler was before it fled the darkness to earth and if I know anything about abandoning a project somewhere there is going to be something left behind" I told the ghost and his light blinked as if surprised.
"Yeah something was left behind, all the residual energy that attracts the Taken and the Vex here" Kalais said to me while dipping down under a root behind me, "true but the Traveler left something else a piece of itself that without the Travelers direct control fell to the surface, and it is still generating energy, I'm here to get it so we can have it on the journey, imagine what I could make from it," I spoke to Kalais excited at the prospect of creation. "I don't think your right if that was true someone would have definitely found it by now," Kalais said to me and I smiled "not if the other residual energy masked the fragment and it took a couple hundred years of the energy dissipating for us to actually be able to detect it on the planet. It's here and we're going to find it." I said to him the light spun signifying a rolling eye, I glared at him as we walked out of the canyon "just scan the area." I told him and the pieces making up his outer shell expanded outward, before coming back together.
The ghost was quiet "now I don't want to say you're right, but" the ghost stopped I smirked "so I was right, how close are we?" I asked him, "I'm going, to be honest; I don't know how you got us so close, but it should be right over that ridge" I smirked and started sprinting over towards where my Ghost had marked I looked down and a pure white fragment was jutting out of the ground radiating light energy I smiled and looked to where Kalais materialized next to me. "Is the Argo in orbit?" I asked the orb who bobbed up and down mesmerized by the fragment below us. "Good, bring the cerulean down, and we'll tow this thing out of here" I walked down and put my hand on the shard smiling.

"If the vanguard finds out about this they're going to be pissed. Ikora will hunt you down and kill us both" The Ghost said while we flew up in the jump ship to towing the shard of the travel. The light it was radiating attracting a few creatures of the darkness, but not many could fly so only a few cabal ships were after me.
"Well the Vanguard won't get the chance to figure it out we're leaving as soon as I get the shard on the ship" I told my floating friend, while I activated an automated turret on the bottom of the jump ship to take down anything that could fly after me, thus leaving only a few cabal ships to chase after us. "Wait we're leaving right now. What about Petra and the rest of the awoken you can't just leave them with-" I cut the ghost off as we reached the upper atmosphere "I already told Petra that we're leaving, I did it while you were sorting through the information the drifter gave us. We have enough fuel to last a couple thousand years, so yea we're leaving" I said as we finally broke the atmosphere still with two cabal drop ships behind us, they didn't last long as my enormous hauler came into view.
The auto-turrets on the hauler turned and began firing in our direction missing the jump ship but hitting one of the cabal ships destroying. The second cabal ship was taken out just as easily. When that was done, I hovered over the Argo lowering the shard into the ship before disconnecting it from cerulean and watching the ship close over the shard. "Is there any energy leaking from the ship?" I asked looking towards Kalais while docking the cerulean to the Argo.
"none that I can tell, the energy from the shard is completely contained within the Argo, no one will even know we have it," Kalais told me while we entered the ship ourselves. "Good set the course for beyond the reef, we're getting out of the Sol system" I said to him and the light blinked "well okay but you're the one who has to manually fly" The ghost said I poked the ghost "yeah I know that but having you plot the course makes my life easier," I told to the ghost and he started to float away toward the bridge of the ship I turned to head towards the shard and make sure it was secured.
Break
"we're past the reef," Kalais said while I was working with the instruments trying to implement the navigation data we got from the Drifter. I stopped to look at the ghost "okay do we have anything coming up on the short-range scanners?" I asked the sphere "only a few Vex parts floating here and there" Kalais said and I stopped working completely. "We are in deep space why are there just random vex parts floating around?" I asked Kalais, the ringed sphere just bobbed up and down unsure of how to answer me. "Boost the sensor, I want to know why there is just floating parts here," I told the orb and he floated off I made my way back up to the bridge the control panel glowing as I sat in front of it and started working on getting defensive weaponry and shields up.
"What do the sensors say now?" I called to the ghost who was floating just to my right, "from what I can tell we might have some trouble looks like we have taken and vex. That isn't the important part yet though, I'm detecting a vex mind here." The ghost said and I went silent. I immediately started grinning, "no, nope, I know that face, we aren't going to attack an unknown vex mind that also has taken crawling around just to get some materials from a vex mind of unknown design, it could just be a calculating one with no armor or weapons." I gave my ghost a deadpanned look and he floated down. "when is it ever like that, they always have something for me to take." I told the ghost "besides taking this thing down will be a great help to both the vanguard and the awoken" I added as the ghost's light looked down unsure of my decision.
I grabbed my hand cannon and walked past him "stay here, be ready to transmat in and keep the long-range cannons warm." I told the ghost and he floated over to the console. I continued to walk towards the back of the ship when the ship jerked to the side I turned and ran back up to the bridge. "what in the name of the queen just happened?" I said as I got to the bridge and saw my ghost looking from console to console. "I don't know a vex gate opened, but it's covered in taken blight," The ghost said as it removed its shell and rested itself on a specially made dock to boost his sensors.
"that sounds bad," I said while moving toward the guidance control for the ship to move us away from the gate. "yeah it's bad, you get us out of here, I'll see what I can figure out from this" The ghost told me while I started to pilot the ship away. The ship didn't get far, "the blight is pulling us into the portal" Kalais said to me from his dock. "Really I thought I turned off the engines accidentally!" I shouted back already frustrated with being sucked into an unknown portal "sarcasm is not helpful right now divert power from the weapons to the engines, not like your shooting anything for once!" The ghost argued back to me as much as I wanted to argue with him, I just did as he advised by diverting power from my weapon systems, but we still couldn't break away from the taken gate.
"What have you learned about the gate?" I asked Kalais the ghost looked over to me and just turned back and forth to show a negative "fine we aren't going to get away even with a jump ship, compile everything you got and send it to the vanguard or Petra, it doesn't matter I'll transfer power to the comms after the message is sent we're going to try to blow this up" I told the ghost before I started to divert the power to the communications "send it!" I shouted as soon as the communications were ready and the ship started jerking towards the gate "I sent it," my ghost said and lifted off its dock and returned to its shell then floated towards me to hover over my shoulder.
"Why aren't you arming the weapons?" the ghost questioned me while I turned the ship towards the enormous blighted vex gate, I turned and smiled at the ghost "I know what you're doing and I want you to know that I hate it, we have no idea what could be on the other side" he told me and I faced forward and as soon as the Argo came in contact with the corrupted energy of the vex gate and we were both blinded by a white void.
