LOG 1 PART 2

Plat-0, Iron Lord John McClintock, and Gelos-ILC had finished eliminating hostile threats on board a cabal carrier ship, inside the main cabin. The guardians holster

their weapons and recollect themselves. Gelos sings into his closed fist along with the ending of the song "All-Star" by Smash Mouth.

GELOS:

Only shooting stars break the mooouuuuooooold.

John looks around and evaluates the area, triple checking his radar.

JOHN:

All hostiles Neutralized.

PLAT-0:

Nova.

NOVA(G):

Understood.

Nova scans the Cabal's computer systems.

JOHN:

Sending mission status to Vanguard Central Tower.

GELOS:

Tell Myke I said hi!

JOHN:

No.

Plat-0 looks across the deck window at the neighboring cabal ship.

PLAT-0:

That ship looks... Familiar.

Gelos and John turn their heads to the same direction.

GELOS:

That looks like... A really big ship.

JOHN:

Well... Green. Big. Giant cannons.

Looks like a cabal ship. What's new?

PLAT-0:

Nova. Begin Analysis on that Cabal ship outside.

Compare it to other Cabal ships and technology.

NOVA(G):

Anomaly detected.

It seems that the during the Taken War, the Cabal studied Oryx's Dreadnaught... are these...?

GELOS:

Is it midterm week already?

NOVA(G):

...N-no. This is extensive research on the Cabal's the cabal be duplicating the dreadnaught's ultimate weapon

PLAT-0:

Their usual tactics are to "Shoot first, and ask Questions later."

To see them studying the Dreadnaught and to copy it's weapon...

The ship begins to turn away, then disappears in a flash of light.

PLAT.0:

They're ...gone. It's not like the Cabal to retreat either.

An Alarm begins to flood the ship, accompanied by flashing red lights.

NOVA(G):

Warning. The Cabal have activated this ship's self-destruct sequence.

T-Minus 2 minutes till detonation.

GELOS:

2 minutes. Who do they think we are, amateurs?

NOVA(G):

The Cabal have sped up the self-destruct sequence. T-minus 1

minute.

GELOS:

Welp. Gotta admire their determination.

PLAT-0:

We've no time to waste. We have to find an exit, and fast.

John begins examining the metal walls. He begins knocking on one side of the wall.

JOHN:

Wolf, bring our ships to this

location.

WOLF(G):

Yes, My Lord.

JOHN:

We can breach this wall.

Make our own exit.

PLAT-0:

Good thinking. Nova, Status.

NOVA(G):

All data received and sent to the Vanguard Center.

I think they'll find this blueprint pretty familiar.

PLAT.0:

Brief us on evac. Let's leave, Guardians.

GELOS:

Can we leave in Slo-Mo?

JOHN:

Breach Minus 5 seconds. Clear!

Explosion detonates on the wall breaching a hole. Smoke clears, revealing 3 ships approaching the breach.

NOVA(G):

T-Minus 10 seconds till Self-destruct.

P&J dissolve into light particles flowing into their respective ships. Gelos can be seen behind what is now a giant hole, running in slow motion. The Countdown from 10 can be heard over the ship's loudspeaker.

GELOS:

Gooooo oooooon wiiiittth-

Plat-0 & JOHN:

GELOS!

GELOS:

Coming~!

Gelos transports into his ship. Plat-0, John, and Gelos hyperdrive away from the cabal ship, leaving an explosion on a near planetary scale. The 3 guardians journey back home.
