It was late at night when Ethan landed in the Tower, "Where can I sleep?" Ethan yawned when he ship started to power down.

"Nothing right now." Answered the Ghost.

"What about in the city?"

"Nothing's opened down there either."

"Seriously?"

"No I`m just lying to so you have to sleep in your ship." The Ghost sarcastically said.

"Fuck." Sighed Ethan as looked around the ship to find the most comfortable way to sleep. "Wake me up at six.

"Got it." Ethan closed his eyes and had a sleepless dream.

"Wake up." Said a voice in front of Ethan's face.

"What?" Ethan asked as he began to open his eyes.

"You told me to wake up at six o'clock."

"Yeah." Ethan said as he rubbed his eyes, "yeah I did."

"The Vanguard should be ready to meet you."

"Ok." Ethan said as he climbed out of the ship.

"I'll mark the way to get there." The Ghost said as Ethan stretched next to the ship. A marker appeared to the left corner of his helmet. A few minutes later Ethan entered the Tower's Courtyard, there were venders starting to open up and other Guardians walking to their destinations. "Come on get moving." The Ghost said snapping Ethan out of his amazement.

Ethan walked down a flight of Black stairs into a hall, full of weapons and armor. Ethan saw three figures in the back of the room. The figure closest to him was a black female with a purple robe on, with the figure to the right was a blue robot hunched over a map, while the figure in the back was a blue humanoid alien.

"Hello," Ethan said as he walked into the Vanguard. "I`m Ethan I was told to come here."

"You must be the new Guardian that showed up late last night." Said the Black women.

"Yes I am." Replied Ethan.

"So I`m Iroka Rey, The Warlock Mentor for the Vanguard." She said, "The idiot across from me is Cayde-6, and the big guy at the end is Zavala."

"Nice to meet you." Ethan said.

"You too." Replied Zavala.

"Ah yeah same." Responded Cayde as he turned his attention back to his map.

Iroka sighed "can you guys be more welcoming?"

"I was." Zavala plainly responded.

"Oh come on, Iroka I was nice." Whined Cayde. Iroka sighed out of annoyance.

"Ok." Ethan was left dumbfounded, he had never seen leaders of a group do that.

"How do I remember that." He thought.

"Anyway," Iroka continued, "do you know your class."

"Unfortunately I don't." Ethan Answered.

"That's fine," smiled Iroka as she picked up one of her many books. "I want you to punch this book."

"Why?" Ethan asked, confused.

"It`ll help with determining your class. Now do it already." Ethan raised his fist, and punched the book with his right hand….nothing. "Cayde he's yours."

"Um ok got it." Cayde said as he straighten his body up "As you know I`m Cayde and you're in the best class of Guardians, Hunters." Ethan was about to speak up, but Cayde interrupted him. "Before you ask we're lone wolves, and the Vanguard uses us to recon areas outside the Last City." Ethan was about to ask another question but Cayde beat him to it, "We`ll get you set with a Trainer tomorrow for you, for now just go exploring."

"Um ok." Replied a widely confused Ethan, with that Ethan turned around and walked out of the Vanguard Hall. "What just happened?"

"That was the Vanguard, more specially Cayde."

"He's a very inserting character." Commented Ethan as he walked around the plaza looking at what the various venders had to sell.

"He is." Responded the Ghost, as Ethan looked over at a Vender who was selling weapons.

"Do you know what you want?" Asked the Cayde like person, who had a rough voice.

"No I`m just looking." Replied Ethan as he continued to browse the weapons on the wall.

"What's your class?"

"Hunter."

"Subclass."

"Don't know."

"Hmmmm." Replied the Exo as he stroked his chin. After a few seconds of thinking the robotic man spoke up, "A Scout Rifle would be a good choice."

"Can I see a couple."

"Sure," Replied the Vender as he bent down and took out three rifles.

"The one of the left." He explained "is the Jigoku SR3, it's easy to customize and is able to use for multiple situations." Ethan picked up the Scout Rifle aiming the weapon towards the ground., it wasn't too heavy nor was it to light.

"Is it loaded?"

"No."

"Ok," Ethan squeezed the trigger and found that the resistance was good enough. "What's the middle on?" Ethan handed the green rifle back to the Exo

"This," started the vender as he picked up the white Scout Rifle, "is Jigoku SR2, it's the older brother of the SR3. It's not customizable, and it has one main problem that the SR3 fixed."

"Which is?" Ethan asked as he took the weapon from the Exo's hand.

"There's a chance that the weapon could jam." Answered the Vendor as Ethan squeezed the trigger.

"I don't like." Ethan said after he was done with the gun, Ethan felt that the rifle was too heavy and the resistance on the trigger was barely anything. "And what's the last rifle?"

"It's the Trax Callum, this is the least well of three, its built for long distance engagements." Replied the vendor as he handed the weapon to Ethan.

"Any problems."

"Not really, unless you consider barely being able to mod anything a problem."

"Yeah I do."

"Then the gun isn't for you then." Bluntly answered the vendor.

"Well ok then." Ethan said as he handed the weapon back, "I'll take the Jigoku SR3 then."

"Here you go." The Exo said as he handed Ethan the Scout Rifle.

"Thanks," Ethan started as took the weapon of the Vendor's hand, "but I don't have any money."

"You can test a couple weapons for me, and bring back spare weapon parts for me when you get a chance."

"Cool, thanks again."

"Welcome, I`ll remember you…. Maybe."

"I`ll remember you too." Ethan said slightly weirded out by the Vendor's comments. "What was that about." Ethan asked his Ghost when he was out of hearing range.

"That's Banshee-44 he's been around for ages, and when he gets a memory wipe he tends to forget Guardians' names." Answered the Ghost.

"Ok," Responded Ethan realizing what Banshee was saying. After walking around the plaza for a few minutes Ethan's Ghost spoke up.

"What are you looking for?"

"A way to the range."

"It's on the second floor." Answered the Ghost.

"You know I can mark it for you right?"

"Yeah, I do." Sighed Ethan realizing how stupid he was for not asking the Ghost earlier.

"There you go." A gray diamond with a white centered appeared, towards the North Tower. Ethan walked towards the maker passing several more vendors, and robots cleaning the walkways, after a couple minutes of walking Ethan found that the marker lead to an elevator. Ethan pressed the down arrow button and waited. Thirty seconds later the doors opened and Ethan walked, and pressed the second floor button.

A few seconds later the doors opened back up and Ethan walked out taking a left down the hallway, following the sign that said RANG. When Ethan got to the range he found he it was empty, "Can you get a bang set for me?" Ethan asked the Ghost.

"Sure things." Replied the Ghost as he hurried off to ready a lane for him. Ethan took the Rifle off of his back and aimed it down range, and much to his surprise there was very tinkering he had to do.

"You're good to go." The Ghost said went it got back.

"Got it." Replied Ethan as he looked through the scope.

"Round One starting in ten seconds." Announced a female robotic voice from the range's speaker system. Ethan took a deep breath and started to put pressure on the rifle. "Round One is starting." A black silhouette of an alien popped up, Ethan squeezed the trigger and a loud bang echoed through the range. "Round Two starting in two minutes."

Sorry for taking so long but school just started back up again, so updates will be every two to three weeks depending on how busy I get. Thanks for reading.
