A fireteam dying for some action quickly find themselves struggling to keep up with the responsibilities of the Vanguard's favorite guardians.

The vanguard assign her a partner. Mostly because he might be a traitor. She just thinks he's a dumb warlock with a few issues. She doesn't plan to aim too high, so she's just going to work on not hitting him.

This is the prequel to my story, Patience and Time. This is the story of Lucy and her original fireteam, and their fight against Crota. Rated M for bad language and adult themes from the beginning.

A Hunter with more than a few screws loose and an angsty Titan are thrown together against their will by the Vanguard to defeat Oryx before he can do some serious damage. Will they be able to work together to achieve victory or will their demons destroy them? M for mature themes and language as the story progresses.
