hello one and all im Amvmaster and this is an SI on how I would take to being a guardian
sweet mother of lord above why am I doing this?
nevermind just want to say really quickly that I don't own this no matter how much I love the games
now onto the reading!
Chapter 1 welcome back to earth, its fucked
"wake up guardian, wake up" I heard a voice go off as I let out a groan of annoyance from the sudden voice
"go away" I muttered sleepily as I rolled around in the dirt as I-hold on dirt?
Quickly opening my eyes I sat up and looked down at the ground as…I was in the middle of dirt
"the fuck?" I barely whispered before a big beam of light shone in my face
"hey what the hell!?" I yelled holding my hand up covering my face as the light dimmed down and I saw the cause of it
"sorry about that, you alright, everything in place?" the voice said again as I removed my hand and promptly froze as I stared at a…ghost!?
"wha-I um huh?" I could barely get my words out as the little thing just flew around me shining its light along my body
"hmmmm well this is interesting you seem fine, but it appears your vocal cords are resembled properly hold on one second guardian I will fix this" the ghost said as just stared as it disappeared
"there now I'm in your head, don't worry I'm still here" the ghost said as I blinked in shock
"hold on stop stop, what the fuck is going on here!?" I yelled as I tried to get my head around, well everything
"oh wait you can speak,oh well this is awkward, sorry I took your shock and awe as something else, whoops" the ghost said as I just shock my head
"that doesnt explain anything, what, who-urgh fuck it where the fuck am I!?" I decided to yell seeing as this was going to be like this, I may as well get the gist of what is going on
"hmmmm strange most ghosts usually don't have a guardian that doesnt simply know everything in the last century, well then again I bet most guardians after their first revival usually wonder around and just jump into the fight, you are a very weird guardian, guardian" ghost said as I felt my hand reach over and rub my head or well my helmet
"look ghost or what ever just don't call me guardian" I said slowly pushing myself up onto my feet
"then what shall I call you instead then, most guardians wait until they arrive to the tower to name them selves, but well I guess you're an exception, so what shall I call you then guardian?" the ghost asked as I thought of using my real name but thought against it just decided to go with my discord name
"hotshot, call me hotshot" I said as my eyes roamed around the dark kind of forest as ruins of buildings with the over growth of both grass and trees laid around entirety of the area I was in.
"what the hell happened here?" I questioned in a whisper
"the collapse happened, when the golden age of a time where humanity prospered came to ruin throughout of the solar system, this place is only a tiny percentage of whats happened in the last century" ghost explained as I frowned at the thought of this.
"so everything is gone" I said as a statement not a question as my head suddenly threw up images of my life and how it went and this just…oh it fucking sucks dick
"hotshot I know you want to grieve but we must move, we are in fallen territory and we need to move" the ghost said as white diamond appeared in the middle of my eyes
"follow the waypoint hopefully if I'm right there will be a ship here somewhere and a weapon laying around for you to use" ghost said as I narrowed my eyes and frowned, and now I was in the middle of one of my favorite games in my life.
Seems like its destiny for life to just fuck me over
Linebreak
Trudging further into the grass filled street as I stayed close to the buildings as ghost said there's a chance a vandel or two might try and snipe me and despite being immortal as ghost implied I was he didn't want to revive me so soon.
Granted I would be kinda pissed off two is I suddenly up and died right after being reborn so I took ghosts words of advice to heart as he said he gained knowledge from not only the traveller but also from fellow ghosts and their guardians, gotta admit it was nice of them to offer the little guys some advice and it was great that he was using said advice now.
"hotshot stop, hostiles speeding over" ghost said as I looked at my radar and saw it blinking quickly, which from ghost told me the faster the blink the faster the enemy, so quickly as I could I tried and nearly failed to move into a building as I nearly tripped but managed to catch myself before I hid behind an old looking bookshelf as 2 vehicles speed past us as the engines were dead give a ways.
"that was close" I muttered as I let out a breath I was holding in but slowly calmed my heart down as much as I could before I slowly creeped back out into the street as my radar didn't go off, good indication that I was in the clear.
"yeah, we need to find something to defend yourself or a shuttle quickly before we run into anymore fallen" ghost informed me as I quickly nodded as I continued towards the next way point, which got me thinking something
"hey ghost can I ask you a question?" I asked running down the street as I didn't feel an ounce out of breath
"yes?" ghost asked me as I stopped before a crossing as I checked for any fallen or anything
"how do you know where to go, you know with the way points?" I questioned as I was clear and continued my run
".….that is a valid question I…don't know" ghost informed me as I narrowed my eyes
"huh so you don't know why we have these waypoints but set them up with out know where it they were leading us?" I guessed
"well yes, but no I just, its just this feeling like this is where we're supposed to go, kinda like out-"
"destiny?" I said flatly as I continued running, this is going to be a recurring thing like from that destiny animated parody I saw which was admittedly pretty funny, but also kinda stereotyped destiny as just a big fad of a joke.
"yeah thats it, but theres something else thats just guiding me, weird lets just keep moving" ghost said as he didn't need to say anymore as I continued my run which then turned into a jog as I stopped at the last way point while the second one appeared just outside of an old warehouse right In the docks of this place
"well this is it, hopefully we find a ship or a gun either is better than nothing" ghost said as I nodded
"got that right" I said as I ducked under an old fence and made my way over to entrance of the warehouse as I hoped it wasn't a fallen hive thing, please let it not be, please!
Opening the door I with a loud screech of rusted metal rubbing off rusted metal I stared into the dark of the warehouse
"oh whoops hold on let me give you some light" ghost said as a flash light appeared in front of my mask helmet thing and I stared into the now slightly lit warehouse and blinked in confusion
"its…empty?" ghost asked befuddled while I was honestly half shocked and half expecting it, cause you know life and all
"huh, take a look around maybe you can find a weapon or something if your lucky" ghost said as I sighed, well he wasn't wrong
Slowly I delved into the empty warehouse as I looked around some of the opened crates, searching around, for something anything that wasn't just a piece of scrap I could pick up and throw or hit something with it, then again that was going to be my plan b if I did run into some kind of enemy, but hopefully it wont happen.
Hopefully for my sake that it wont come to that, then again, life.
It wasn't until I was like at the back of the warehouse did I finally found something, even said something was highly questionable in the sense that it would still work or not
"you think this thing can still work?" I asked as I held up the very rusted handgun that I instantly recognized as the one and only desert eagle, either this was a reinvention of an old classic(classic for future standards) or someone took very well care of it and is a family heirloom, lets hope its the first one and not the second one.
I don't need dead people following me around.
But then again I'm dead so does that count?
"hmmm give me a minute" ghost said as the gun suddenly disappeared from my hand as all I was left with rust covered gloves, gross
Quickly wiping my hand on my pants I stood up and turned to the exit as I knew that my next objective was to find a ship or something to get me to the last city, because where the fuck else am I going to go? My homes probably destroyed, my family is deader than any rusted ass doorknob and I've got nothing else as well, so in otherwords 'last city here I come!'
"good news and bad news hotshot" ghost said as I groaned, this otta be good
"just give me the bad news" I sighed as I knew this was going to happen
"well bad news we have fallen in coming" ghost said as I froze
"wait what!?" I yelled in shock as my head spun over to the open door as could barely just see silhouettes of fallen running over with a couple vandals a lot of dregs a captain and those floaty shooty things! What the hell are they called again?
"yes but good news!" ghost said as a light shined in my hands as with a flash I was holding a dark steel looking deagle in my hand
"i got the gun to work" ghost informed me as an indicator of two lots of numbers appeared on my lower left
"the one on the far right is you ammo reserves and the closest number to you is the magazine count, you have to 7 bullets and 98 to spare, just enough for your every day hand cannon" ghost said as I looked at said hand cannon and couldn't help but say out loud
"and the lord said do onto others as they do onto you, for it is our right as men to taketh away from those whose taketh what they don't consider theirs"
"amen" ghost said as I couldn't help but grin slightly as my chances just went up, but now there was the next problem I was facing
"ghost, its a bad time to say this but I've never really shot let alone held a gun like this in my entire life" I said as it may have been a bad time but it was better than later when I'm about to get my head chopped off
"then this may be problem" ghost said as I looked over at the entrance as the fallen walked in and saw me
"oh shit" I muttered before I quickly leaped behind cover as the bullets started to fly
"this is not how I envisioned my first fallen experience with my guardian!" ghost yelled at me as I held my cannon close to me as I started to breath in and out trying to calm myself down and ghost's opinions on the matter was not helping me!
"oh shut up its not my fault you chose me to be a guardian!" I yelled as bullet flew right past me, that was close
"on your left!" hearing the call I quickly held up my cannon and fired as I didn't even blink as one of the floaters exploded from the first bullet
"on your right roll forwards!" hearing the second warning I quickly followed the advice as I rolled forwards as I looked back and saw I just managed to dodge a vandals sword stab
"jesus christ you're an ugly little thing" I muttered before it growled and launched itself at me as I quickly moved forwards, catching the vandal and me by surprise as I threw a left jab into its masked face before shoving and firing another bullet into vandal skull blowing up with a flash of light that rose up from the vandal neck
"move hotshot!" ghost ordered as I felt a sting of pain in my right side, looking up I stared at a dreg as it held its pistol at me
"Shit" I muttered as I felt it but it appeared the white bar over my head went down, great I have shields going to have to remember that from now on, quickly jumping away from the shots I sprinted around the warehouse side as bullets trailed after me as I made my way to the unintended exit to which I managed to run to.
"ive got a way point set up, I've managed to use the geo-"
"JUST TELL ME YOU GOT A FUCKING WAY OUT OF HERE!:" I shouted at the top of my lungs as I full on sprinted as I watching as bolts of bullets and projectiles fly right by me and my head as I ran down the ruined streets
"ok go here!" ghost yelled as I saw the waypoint pop up as my body quickly ran directly towards it
Bullets continued to fly as roars of the fallen behind me got continued to get closer and closer by the second, damn it life why you gotta do this to me!? I've done nothing wrong!

Ok mabye thats a lie
"hotshot on your right!" hearing ghost yell I quickly dropped down sliding along the ground as I watched as one of the fallen pike bikes hovered right over me and crashed into the nearby building, stopping my slide I looked up as a second one was not far behind, quickly looking at the crashed pike I quickly ran over firing my deagle killing the dreg that was on it and quickly kicked it off
"um I know this seems like a bad time but do you know how to drive one of these?" ghost asked as my gun disappeared as I latched onto the controls as I slowly felt it hover
"i know how to ride a bike" I replied as i pulled the controls backwards as I managed to reverse it backwards and turned the controls to the side as I hear bullets fly at me
"i don't think a bike and a pike are one in the same!" ghost yelled as I grunted in pain as I felt one of the dregs pike's bullets hit me, that took a lot of my shields
"they arent, but this is cooler than any other bike I've ever ridden!" I yelled as I pulled down on the throttle and shot off down the street as I heard the pike on my ass
"im mapping out waypoints for you to follow through the city!" ghost yelled as I sat while light like nodes appear in front of me, well great I have your everyday chase on my hands, way points, basically your average generic racing game.
"all I need now is music" I said sarcastically
Play trenches by pop evil
"oh yes forgot about that" ghost said as I blinked and music suddenly appear in my head
".…what the hell cant you do?" I asked seriously
"allot of things but focus on the road" ghost said as quickly looked back on to the road as I blinked as I saw a corner coming up
"shit" I muttered as I quickly applied the brakes which was thankful on my left side and managed to drift or well hover around the corned as that dreg was still on my ass.
Leaning to my left I dodged some rubble as my eyes narrowed at the in coming make shift ramp on my right, might as well, pulling full throttle I aimed for the ramp and when I hit it I took a deep breath as I hoped this wouldnt end badly, and suddenly I found myself floating in the air, kinda like that bit from ET with the bike thing but this time when the sense of vertigo ended I remembered gravity was still in effect.
"oooooooh shiiiiiiit!" I yelled as I watched as the pike headed straight for a camp like area, my hands instinctively letting go as I pushed myself off and braced for a really hard impact
*KABOOM SMACK!*
Black!
…
…
…
…
"wake up guardian!" hearing ghost yell my eyes fly open as I gasped and air of breath as I quickly opened my eyes and jumped up to my feet as I looked around, where am I? what the hell? Did I just die? Holy shit I died! How-wait ghost, guardian, fallen camp-!
At the last thought I finally looked up and remembered I was inside a fallen camp, shit!
"hotshot get to cover!" hearing ghost yell I quickly threw myself with a combat roll behind the nearest cover as the bullets started flying
"ok, good news we have ship, bad news we are going to have to get through this camp" ghost informed me as I my deagle appeared in my hand
"you knew we had to go through a fallen camp and you didn't tell me!?" I yelled looking at my tracker as I saw it go red on my left so I quickly threw my gun to my left hand and aiming at a dreg and fired as the unfortunate son bitch died with a head shot.
"i would of told you before but you didn't let me finish!" ghost yelled back me as I saw poked my head out of my cover firing another two bullet as they both hit and exploded a red barrel that killed a couple vandals and floaty's
"you could have told me 'hey hotshot when we can get there, we have to go through a fucking fallen camp!' how hard is that to say!?" I yelled ducking under a sword swinging vandal as I fired my last bullet in its chest killing it before I let go of my deagle and picking up two of the vandals swords while my deagle disappeared with a flash of light.
"you say that like its that simple and we were pressed for time!" ghost yelled as I ran from cover to cover dodging dreg and floaty fire until I outright ran out into the open leaping up in the air as I came down on top of a dreg curb stomping its head into dust and stabbed one sword into one of the floaty's before kicking it off my sword as I looked at the next dreg that charged right at me.
"it is simple, in what fucking universe is alright not to warn someone whos about to run into a camp full of alien cunts who want you dead because of bullshit reasons!?" I roared swinging my sword as with one swing from one of the sword decapitated the charging dreg.
"well I'm sorry alright, we are here and we have a job to do" ghost said as I spun around as I saw the captain as it roared at me
"took the words out of my mouth" I said as I quickly threw myself into a roll dodging the captain giant shotgun as my eyes narrowed at the shield that surrounded the captain
"are these able to cut through those shields?" I asked jumping back up as I ran into cover
"with enough force they can" ghost said as I nodded and readjusted my hols on the swords
"just what I needed to hear" I mumbled as the captain flashed right next to my cover as it roared at me
"hello and good bye mother fucker!" I yelled jumping back onto my feet slashing one sword as the captain blocked it with its shotgun but didn't watch or see as I pushed my other sword under the captains arms and stabbed upwards from the abdomen into the chest and pulled back slightly and let go as the captain dropped to the ground limp and dead
End song
"lets get the hell out of here" I said as I moved to the way point hand still on the other vandal sword as I knew better than to just throw something that I could use
"if you want I can turn the back of your armor into a magnet so you don't have to constantly hold that vandal sword around all the time" ghost suggested as I sighed in relief
"please and thank you" I said placing the sword over my right shoulder making sure I can grab it in a short notice
While i silently walked to way point my deagle appeared in my hand as I saw I didn't have any ammo
"so quick question if I want a new mag you just make it appear in my hand while I eject the mag?" I asked in curiosity
"theres a bit more to it but basically yeah" ghost confirmed as I knew thats what happened in the game but I just needed to confirm my thoughts first.
"good" I said ejecting the mag as a new mag appeared in my left hand and I slipped it into the gun and pulled the slide back watching as the slide slammed back loading one in the chamber.
Soon I found myself finally coming up to the ship as I stopped and stared at it as it looked like the same jump ship you get in the first game but slightly more rusted looking
"can it fly?" I questioned as ghost appeared near me and flew over as it scanned it
"well a bit of spot from here to there is a bit damaged and strangely and thankfully it has a jump drive so we don't have to worry about trying to find one" ghost said as I sighed in relief, great I didn't need to go through the bullshit to find one
"lets go I don't want to stay here anymore" I said as ghost looked over at me and nodded as with a flash that was bright I closed my eyes and when I opened my eyes I found myself sitting in a seat as I stared out in from what I believed was a screen that flashed on and saw outside the ship
"alright get read, cause here we go" ghost said as I felt the rumbling of the ship as it slowly started to fly upwards as we crashed up through the ceiling
"hold on annnnd there we are good to go" ghost said as the ship flew off into the sky as I held my breath, holy shit its happening
I really am in destiny
"sigh when this day just end?"
Chapter 1 end
annnnnnnd done I hope you like this one really I do
and for reference the deagle is a legendary, I know great find and it may seem unfair but the waste land of earth is full of surprises so me finding a legendary is more rare than uncommon.
also for future reference the ranking system of weapons will not work power wise but will lean more onto how reliable or the quality of said weapons
for example a white common weapon will do just the same amount of damage or will work just as well as any legendary which brings up the quote of 'its not the tools that make the man, but the man who uses the tools' either that's an actual quote from someone or I just came up with that on the spot
either way there is a lot of things that I will make more realistic in further chapters, from the ammo usage all the way to the supers and I will also be adding a bit of lore to certain things, not too much but enough to give something of a background to it.
now please before you go don't forget to leave a
