Hello there it's me Souel now your probably wondering what am I doing well I am writing a fanfiction on Destiny 2, not 1 just to clear that up and yes I know what about the boy with no name well I'm working on that but I had a good idea for a fanfiction that I had in mind. Now this story is placed after the end of Destiny 2 so possible spoilers anyways I hope you enjoy this and if you haven't read my other fanfiction I am working on I recommend you go read that. Now to the story (I do not own the game or characters or anything having to do with the world/lore/Destiny 2 game the rights of ownership belong to their rightful owners)
A titan stumbles in the ruins of an old apartment building leaning against a stone wall that was partially fallen down or blown up it get's hard to tell the difference. He was battered practically torn apart.
"Hey, I don't like it that you're monologing what I'm doing." The Titan says making his ghost appear the ghost wasn't in good shape either it was also torn apart parts missing from it partially singed just barely able to move around
"Sorry just trying to pass the time till we die." The ghost says "Just look at yourself and at me, we aren't going to survive out here for long." Sadly the ghost was right he was in terrible shape as well multiple pieces of his armour was gone or had holes in it he had multiple wounds from being hit by grenades and a couple of rounds from one of those Cabal. He was constantly dripping blood from a wound he hastily bandaged and he had a knife sticking out of his left shoulder no longer able to feel or move his arm.
"Well if you are doing nothing could you reload my gun." He says flipping the handgun to one side opening the cylinder letting the empty cartridge fall out while his ghost floats up caring another one dropping it into the cylinder "We aren't dead yet all we have to do is get in close proximity to the tower and teleport their you should be able to still do that right." He says glancing at the ghost from under his cracked helmet.
"Theoretically yes if you want me to be more specific no we are going to die here but yeah sure let's have hope." The ghost says rolling his eye
"What I say about sarcasm?"
"Don't use it if it refers to someone dying."
"Yes, and we are not dying you know what you could be a distraction just float out there and get their attention don't worry you won't die maybe." His voice dripping with sarcasm
"Ha ha, that's funny." The ghost says disappearing while the titan peaks from his cover seeing ugh why Caball and the Fallen going at it
"I really don't want to get involved in their squabble." He says sighing "Maybe I can make my way around them without getting their attention do you think that's possible?" he asks his ghost but to others, it probably looks like he's talking to himself. "Hey what I say about Monologing." He yells
The ghost sighs but doesn't appear "I don't know, remember damaged can barely fly I can't give you statistics on where you can go to avoid them just wing it." That's when all of a sudden he hears it a crying over the gunfire and explosion he hears crying and so does the ghost he turns quickly looking at the battle going on and sees a girl sitting it the middle of the street crying he acts without thinking purely on instinct
"You better save that girl and live." The ghost says as he runs out of his cover as a vandal with a rocket launcher shoots at the girl.
"NO!" he yells grabbing the girl diving to the wreckage of a car just as the rocket hits and explodes. The girl opens her eyes tears still streaming down her face looking up at the man who just saved her.
"Who are you?" She says you could practically hear the fear in her voice. The titan smiles at her his helmet now broken and signed from the explosion revealing his face slightly. Setting his gun down he takes off his helmet and smiles at her he had black hair that was cut short yet it was messy and all over the place as if he didn't have the time or patience to take care of it the same could be said about the beard he had. Even though it looked like he just rolled through the dirt and had a nice new gash on the side of his face right next to his eye he smiled brightly as if there was nothing wrong in the world.
"The names Titus what's yours?" he asked still showing off his smile
She sniffs a couple of times before answering him "Alex." She says her eyes widening covering her mouth with her hands "Your hurt." She said looking at his left arm. Titus looks at where his left arm should have been but it was no longer there all that was left was his shoulder to the middle of his bicep yet the knife was still there. Blood was pouring from his arm dangerously fast now he didn't even feel it get blown off.
"It's fine hey I know a safe place to go do you want to go." He says turning back to her still smiling. "Yes." she replies
"Great now I'm going to need you to be brave ok?" he says grabbing his handgun
"Okay." Just as she says this a dreg jumps on top of the car aiming his gun at Titus but before it could pull the trigger a hole was blown in its head as Titus was quicker to aim and pull the trigger. He stands up aiming at the battle as the fallen and cabal still fighting but some had gotten attention to the titan and girl. He fires multiple shots all hitting their target one dreg in the head two vandals two legionaries and one phalanx before running out of ammo returning to behind the car and sliding the empty cartridge out of the cylinder.
"Hey, could you put one of these into here." He says so kindly as if he's asking for the cartridge appears on the ground the girl picks it up and carefully slides it into the cartridge he flips the cartridge closed. "Hey, ghost I need to talk to you." As he says this his ghost appears in front of him surprising the girl making her yelp slightly.
"So you saved the girl and are still alive so what do you need me for and I am not going to be your distraction."
"I need you to teleport us to the tower from here." He says with a serious expression on his face while the ghost not really having a face looks at him with complete disbelief
"Are you crazy we could die we might not even make it due to my current state we might be a couple of inches from the platform and plummet to our death and doing that from here I could die along with all of us there's no way." Before the ghost could finish Titus grabs him bringing him closer to his face.
"You do not give up you need to dig deep and believe that we can make it because I believe in you so we either die here or we die but either way I am saving her." He says this letting go of the ghost standing up again shotting at the cabal and fallen again before taking a round to the shoulder.
"Okay, fine let's do this." The ghost says before starting to glow. They appear at the tower a few inches from the ground making them hit the ground with a thud splattering blood from Titus severed arm. Cayde just happened to be walking past the docking area when they teleported in he turns to the two and ghost with a shocked look.
"Hey, Cayde." Titus lifts his head from the ground. "I'd like you to meet Alex." He says before passing out.
"Quick someone get me a person who know how to patch up wounds." He yells "Hey bud stay with me." He says tapping Titus' face he then looks over at the young girl his expression softening. "Hey their little one he said your name was Alex right I'm Cayde nice to meet you how older are you?" She looks up at him tears still streaming down her face,
"Seven is Mr Titus going to be okay?" she asks looking at Titus with Cayde looking over at him too as paramedics arrive examining him and pulling him onto a stretcher bringing his ghost along and taking him away. Cayde had a surprised look on his face that she was this young and out in the EDZ without dying but his expression softens.
"Yes he should be just fine he's a tuff guy never gives up are you hungry I know a great ramen place." He says smiling
"What's ramen?" She asks looking up at him
Cayde looks at her surprised "Well it's the most delicious food you could ever have." He reaches out his hand for her to grab which she does and follows him to the ramen shop as he rattles on about all the different flavours and combinations of ramen.
