"If there's activity on the Moon, we'll have our scouts check out the area. Thank you Odin."

He waved away Zavala's thanks and stepped back. "I did what anyone was expected to do. I don't want another foray into the Moon like before."

Cayde leaned on the table on his elbow, his version of a grin on his face. "Now that you're back though...How would you like to make some Glimmer for us? And by us, I mean you and me." Odin could feel his own grin forming. "You made a bet on the Crucible again didn't you?"

"You know it. Shaxx is sending his best into a rumble, and I'm sending mine. I even bumped up the ante; he gets five choices, I get one. If any of his five make it in first place, he wins." "Only five? Too easy. What are the conditions?" Cayde motioned to Odin's hips. "Primaries, melees, and Supers only." The way Odin's shoulders rolled, Ikora could almost visualize his eyes rolling. "Seriously, too easy. I'll head out now, no sense in making them wait." As he walked away, Ikora looked to Zavala. "Are we going to-" Zavala brought his Ghost out. "Close the halls, we're taking a twenty minute break."

Luna entered the medical wing to find Matthew; her brother was coming here more and more often during breaks or after his job with Eva was over. He didn't say anything to her, but she was sure he'd developed a crush on Bianca. If she noticed, she didn't say anything yet. The Titan was surprisingly giddy when she walked in, a fire in her eyes. "Luna! Just in time! Your brother and I were about to go watch a Crucible match." "A Crucible match? Is that why you look so excited?" "No, I'm excited because it's one of Cayde's famous bets!" She placed a hand on their lower backs to usher them from the room. Matthew gazed up at her. "What do you mean?"

The glee in Bianca's voice was far from contained in the way her body shook. "Cayde makes bets all the time on Crucible matches, but every so often he throws out a wild card of his; Odin. He's getting Odin to fight a in a Rumble match! Six Guardians dropped on a map, all aiming for first place. It's gonna be great!" They made it out into the plaza and Bianca leaned over the railing to shout down towards the meeting room. "Eris, you hear about the match?" The familiar hiss came back. "Yes." "You coming?!" Silence. "...Yes. Save me a seat." "Will do!"

Bianca managed to acquire a row of seats next to the Vanguard, seating Luna next to Cayde, Matthew next to her, Bianca beside him, and leaving the aisle seat for Eris when she arrived, so she could leave just as easily. Massive screens floated around the makeshift theater, some being projected, and Cayde snickered; the match started, three Titans, a Warlock, and another Hunter dropping with Odin, all over the overgrown ruins.

"I love Rumbles on Asylum. Plenty of open spaces and close quarters to make everyone happy." Luna was in awe of the beauty of it, the illusion of peace shattered quickly by one of the Titans appearing on screen, just to have a single round break his shields and a knife pierce his helmet. The words 'Odin killed Teyu' flashed in the corner. Shaxx's voice boomed above them. "First Blood!" A flurry of bullets flew towards the direction the knife came from, but a trio of hand cannon rounds answered the volley.

Another kill for Odin. Hell broke loose after that, kills flashing left and right. The majority were Odin felling enemies, not one of them getting him yet. From the buildings came a Titan enveloped in Arc energy, leaping at the figure Luna recognized as Odin. The crowd went wild; they'd finally see him go down!

Much to their disbelief, Odin jumped towards him! His foot met the helmet of the Titan in mid-leap, propelling far enough to avoid the shockwave, and spun in midair to put a few rounds in the back of his skull. The other Guardians followed suit in the attempt to end his spree, but they met similar fates; a bullet, or knife, would end their lives before their Supers could land a hit. Luna turned to Bianca, confusion lining her face. "Why doesn't he use his own ability?"

Cayde interjected. "He's not one to use his Super unless it's a dire situation. Always been like that. Claimed it made him sloppy to rely on a supreme power that wasn't available when it was needed." "Someone is close to victory!" Luna's eyes returned to the screen and caught Odin in a standoff with the only Guardian not waiting on a respawn; the Titan he got First Blood on. As if by some unspoken agreement, both of them holstered their weapons and rushed forth. Fist met fist, and the Titan slid him back a foot, only to feel Odin's other fist smash into the bottom of his helmet. From the collective "Ooooo!" from around Luna, she knew it must hurt.

"Hey, Zavala, you ever seen Odin fight hand-to-hand?" "Hm. I don't believe I have, Cayde." The Exo practically giggled with joy. "Good!" The Guardians furiously traded blows, a feat not many non-Titans could achieve against enemy Titans, especially one that radiated with Arc like he did. Odin drew the knife from his chest and brushed aside his fist exactly like he'd done to Yadra, to give him the opening to drive the knife through the helmet and end the match. "Victory!"

Cayde smirked. "Man, Shaxx is gonna be pissed. Can't wait to get my payment!" Matthew was bouncing in his seat, amazed by the strength of the man who saved him. "That was awesome!" Bianca howled in laughter. "I told you!" As Odin carefully wiped the bloody knife on the grass, Luna was silent. Once more she found herself asking, who was this man?
