A.N.: Chapter three. Now, this chapter won't have the hunter in it but some diving into his history and character.
"Say Mr. Spark, can you tell us a bit about your guardian? Maybe we could draw conclusions on where he would go if we understood him better. "Was what 45 said, breaking the silence that settled in during the drive east. It wasn't long since they found the mark that showed them the direction they need to go. They don't know when they would need to stop so they could spend some time talking about their target
"I would not be opposed to that" came Spark's instantaneous reply. "but be prepared, some of the things I'm about to tell you can be a bit... Strange."
416 Was the first to reply this time"Just tell us, I doubt anything can surprise us at this point.
So he did, and he started with the first meeting.
"I met him in russia, near an old cosmodrome. His light Was strong even before he became a guardian. I was drawn to him and when I resurrected him he started to ask question after question. He wanted to know everything, to explore and get to know his new world. In that moment I knew: he would be a great hunter
Our first meeting with the vanguard was fun to say the least. He asked Zavala and Ikora if they shaved their heads, something that made Cayde laugh so hard that he had to support himself on the wall. It became a running gag among the hunters, Ikora took it in good fun but Zavala still doesn't like talking about it
We went on patrols after that, uncovering secrets, discovering loot and fighting the darkness at every turn.
A lot happened in that time. The Black garden, Oryx and Crota. Many guardians died, more than we like to think about
Then came the Red War
Gaul and his forces were unrelenting in their hunt for the lightless guardians after they took the Last City and the Traveler. It was a time of despair. But, even in that despair, my hunter never gave up.
He searched regained his light after he was guided to a shard of the Traveler and reconnected with the other guardians. One after another we found the vanguard and hindered the Red Legion as we went. We prepared for the final battle against Gaul and destroyed his superweapon, one that he used in the past to destroy solar systems.
And after we did that, we confronted Gaul. It was a difficult battle, Gaul stole the light and was using it to empower himself. It was the Traveler that delivered the final blow, the moment it awoke to defend itself.
We had some free time after Gaules defeat. But that wouldn't last long. "
"Sangvis outpost ahead! "
Spark was interrupted in his rough recount of the past when 416 informed them of the buildings in the distance.
A Sangvis Ferri outpost. The manufacturer of tactical dolls whose own creation rebelled against them and are now on the warpath with humanity.
"Strange, I didn't pick up any signals." mused Spark. He would normally have been able to intercept any and all signals from this outpost. No matter how advanced SF is, they are not as advanced as the Vex, and Spark is able to decode signals from them anytime.
" Well, maybe you are not as good as you think you are. What matters right now is that we are combat ready. I'm going to park the car in the treeline over there, once we are out me and 9 will sneak around the outpost to see how the defenses are. HK416, you and G11 will hid among the trees and be ranged support if something goes wrong, understood? Good, have fun~. " UMP45 took charge and the others followed without objection. Spark has to respect their professionalism. He watches them prepare and execute the plan as fast as possible, or they would have if they hadn't noticed one little detail.
There Were no Sangvis troops. At least no active ones.
The ground Was littered with broken Sangvis dolls and dinergates. Some had deep, molten cuts in their bodies and others were outright cut in two. Other places simply had a pile of ash and a weapon side by side.
"Well, at least we know that my guardian was here. " was the, not so helpful, statement of Spark.
"Your hunter did that? " asked 416 with a raised brow. If he could do this on his own, even without all his weapons and nearly no ammunition then there might be some truth to Sparks description about his guardians power
"Most certainly. Those are Sol light burns, I can still feel the leftovers. Let's investigate the insides to see if he left something. " and with that, Spark took of toward the entrance of the outpost with 404 behind him. They were still cautious, but it was evident that they would not be ambushed here
When they arrived at the entrance they found it locked, not that this stopped Spark. The ghost shot a small beam of light at the door control for some second, until the door opened with a mechanical cklick and hiss
"This was easier then I thought. Well let's go explore!" exclaimed Spark. He was excited, it seemed.
The T-dolls followed after him after a slight pause. Maybe they'll find something useful in here
They doubt it.
A.N.: still a bit short, and a rough retelling of the Destiny story. I did leave some stuff out, because I didn't want to go too deep into the lore,after all the lore of Destiny is deep
So, any questions? Advice? Write them in the comments and I will reply In the next chapter.
