Aurae wakes up and immediately sits up and looks at his surroundings. He saw...trees? Alive ones and they're beautiful... He shakes his head to get rid of his thoughts.
'V, where am I?' Aurae asks his ghost.
'I don't know, guardian. We seem to be somewhere similar to...Earth.' V answers.
Aurae quickly checks his inventory and sighs in relief, "I still have my stuff, but Grace and Luke aren't around."
V appears and scans around them, "I can't seem to find Luke and Grace. I don't think they're anywhere near us. I already tried talking to their ghosts but I think they're damaged or something, because I can't seem to connect to them or find their location."
Aurae stands up cautiously, "Everything seems too normal..." he looks up and sees a broken moon in the sky, "actually, I stand corrected."
'V, can you check if I still can use my light here? And try to hack into anything nearby to find information about this planet.' Aurae mentally says to his only companion with him right now.
V hums their agreement then disappears. Aurae spots a human walking, a woman he assumes based off the armor and skirt. He freezes and thinks, 'Why are they here? Are they after me?!'
He quickly throws down a grenade that makes him invisible and decides to spy on her for a bit by changing his subclass to Nightstalker. The grenade that comes with this subclass allows the user to become invisible for a few seconds. He watches as she continue walking.
V is back but invisible since they noticed the supposed female nearby, 'This place is called Remnant. But there's no aliens or anything! There are two species that inhabit this planet though, humans and faunas. Faunas are basically humans with animal characteristics. Guardians don't exist either so I suggest saying that your subclass is your semblance, I'll explain later. I don't know if you can still use any of your supers at their full potential, but I do know you can still make grenades, triple jump, and dodge.'
'Good to know. I don't think I'll be using my super any time soon anyways.' Aurae replies.
'What should we do? We're practically broke since we don't have any money or whatever they use as currency here. We can't just give them glimmer. Maybe we should just find a job.' V says.
'But I can't! I have no proof that I graduated a college or even a high school if they even have any here! No one would hire someone that isn't educated.' Aurae mused.
'Oh...and you're an exo so...that will raise questions and maybe even create hostility.' V replies.
'Fudge.' Aurae responded.
'We can...become a huntsman? And keep your helmet on of course.' V suggests.
'I am a Hunter, V! What do you mean by that?' He asks his ghost.
'Oh! I forgot to mention. Apparently, on this planet, there's these creatures called Grimm. Huntsmen and Huntresses defend people from them by killing them. They're very skilled and all of them have their auras unlocked and have semblances. This world is rather peculiar, I don't understand auras but semblances are kinda like your super! Super powered people basically.' V replies really fast, ranting about what they had found out recently.
"Stop stop stop!!! I can't catch up, say it again but slower." Aurae groans.
Suddenly, growls are heard near them. Aurae freezes, he didn't realize his invisibility ran out. Now, he's surrounded by these...werewolves? Red eyes, black, sinister, and really big. Yep, he's confused and a bit scared now.
"Oh come on, Aurae, they're not even as bad as the taken we already killed." V complains.
Aurae's hand cannon appears in his right hand and he takes aim then shoots one in the head. It immediately falls to the ground, dead, but it started dissolving?
"Quick! Try to scan them if you can." Aurae sputtered before getting pounced on by another.
He grips the handle of his knife and slides it out of its sheath, slicing at the beast's face and rolling out from underneath it, making him invisible from the dodge.
"Bring out Crimson, now." Aurae cursed. His armor still in okay shape, but had taken a few scratches. He had underestimated them.
His second favorite hand cannon, Crimson, appears in his hand and he shoots burst shots of three at each of them. They all die, but because of all the noise, more came to replace the places of the ones he killed before. He continues to headshot them, the satisfying sound of 'dings' ringing in his helmet.
"Flip you, fudge you, f—" Aurae spat as he shoots each round, not even needing to reload due to most of the shots being precision hits. He's interrupted by some girls—that looked kind of similar in terms of gear and clothes to the other girl he saw—meeting eyes with him.
Although not really, since he had his helmet on. He stops what he's saying after he sees them and was about to ask a question, but another beast crashed into him.
