Chapter 3 Wow
An: So just a heads up before you all get to the reading Final fantasy 15 came out so this took a lot longer to make I am a gamer so my time is usually spent on that along with life Eh. I do plan on finishing this story even if it may take months for a chapter to come out so sorry this took so long for those of you who were waiting but these things just happen also side note I suck at describing things so...yeah sorry if I don't paint a pretty enough picture.
"So where is this piece suppose to go Ava." I asked as I looked at the small circle of blue light I was holding in my hand.
"That's the energy core place it under that strand of green and red wires, there should be a spot you can sit it on after that I'll run some programs to see if we can get her flying again.
I reached inside the ship placing the core into the spot Ava had mentioned we had been working on the ship for about two hours now. The fallen had came and went a few times but they seemed to busy to worry about the small run through me and ava had with them.
I stood up and stretched my body when I noticed a small green box on the floor I walked over to it and opened it the box was empty all except for this small tiny black ball at the bottom of it.
I reached in and grabbed it I heard another pop like the one from when I had grabbed the engram from earlier. I looked at the ball moving it around in my hand several small blue dim lights could be seen glowing from it I tapped Ava with my finger I'm not sure if she was pissed but I felt like I was getting a death stare from her.
"Hey Ava umm what is this, I found it over there in that box. I said showing ava the small device Ava looked at me for a couple of seconds before answering my question.
"Its a grenade depending on what you want it to do it will act differently once you throw it until you throw it I'm pretty sure it won't activate." I looked at the grenade then back at Ava.
"So what would happen if I tripped and dropped it?" I Questioned since technically I wouldn't be throwing it.
"I'm pretty sure we and this ship here go poof." I felt as though I was bothering Ava I decided to catch a quick nap. I got as comfortable as I could in the old chair I told Ava to wake me up should something happen I placed the grenade on my lap before sleep quickly took over me.
(Dream)
All around the last city people where drinking and cheering in the bar know as Destiny the place was a bit fancier than the rusted shacks and metal hole riddle buildings that filled the city. it wasn't exactly as clean and fresh feeling as the tower but it was better than the older salons in the city that seemed to have a drunken fight break out every five minutes.
"I'm serious Holiday my sparrow would dust the old mans in a heartbeat."I chipped at my drinking buddy as I took another swallow of TrueTime my favorite drink in the city.
"Look Were telling you there just ain't no way. I've seen the old vids of the SRL he use to run in and I'm telling you there's no beating a machine like that." Holiday laughed at my face as I was still adamant about my sparrow winning.
I looked at holiday as I took another chug of my drink she wasn't wearing her usual mechanic outfit like I thought she would be instead she wore a bright blue t-shirt with the words. Nuts and bolts over light any day. Written in white lettering and some blue jean pants she still kept her red scarf on around her neck I remember her telling me she got it from her mom so I understood why she kept the black one I gave her tied around her right arm.
My train of thought was broken as an arm wrapped around my shoulder "You know your gonna lose the argument if you keep staring at her like that Kiara." I looked at my sister Arya with my eyebrow raised doing my best to hide the blush on my face.
"There's no argument Arya its simple the old man can never defeat Wolven and that's a fact!" I yelled out cheerfully to the entire bar getting a loud roar full cheer from the place.
"If you say so sis," Arya commented as she picked up her glass and called over for more drinks to one of the frame robots that were working.
My sister was an Awoken she was the bright blue ones you usually saw she was more like a lighter shade of that color maybe even pale yet I swear still to this day people act as though it's the weirdest thing when I call her my sister as I saw a few people in the bar take three looks at us before laughing it off.
my sister and I dressed pretty casual but we decided to wear the same outfit. I was wearing a black long sleeve shirt with some short blue jean pants my sister had on the same except hers had a design of some warlock blinking behind four hunters holding there knifes in her hand laughing.
She had decided to keep her black hair in a bun while a few strands of it flowed on the sides of her face my hair was in my usual spiky look though I had been letting it get longer as it now reached down passed my shoulders I usually never let it go past my neck.
I watched my sister golden eyes scanning the room for some guy she had met eariler I turned my attention towards holiday as she had asked me a question.
"So Why don't you just ask Cayde for a race I doubt he'll say no espically to you."
"i've been trying but you know the old man it's always Oh i'm just to busy or oh sorry Kiara but theres guardian things that i gotta do or bla bla bla bla." We all laughed as I immatated Cayde voice terriblely.
"Well the guardian thing I get that but we've had all kinds of guardians join in on the SRL races even if some of us aren't guardians theres no reason why we can't all have some fun every once in awhile. Arya said grabbing the fresh glasses of drinks from the robot.
"Yeah espically since last years Festival of the lost was soo boring I mean no one was having fun you didn't see any mask wearing creepy hive running around or fallen, guess the wars been getting everyone out of spirts." I took a lot more of my drink in one swig then I should have that time. There was a small moment of silcence before holiday cheered us up.
"Forget all that girls we need to come up with a future plan to get Cayde and Kiara racing." Both me and Arya eyes sparked as we started scheming of different ways to get cayde to race we werent guardians but we had our on means of making our mircales happen.
"Kiara Wake Up!" I Woke to the sound of Ava voice she sounded happy as I looked at her I saw the ship lowly floating in the air I also noticed the roof to the garage was open.
"What happened? I looked at Ava puzzled as I pointed up.
"Oh that. I'm Shocked you didn't hear that actually umm well I had started the ship up and when I did it sort of shot out a giant blast of fire from the exhausts that took out most of the roof the rest of it just opened up."
I put the grenade I was holding on the right side of my belt, I climbed in Ava appeared beside me once I was inside I flipped a few switches and watched as the ship came to life Ava seemed to be updateing the map once she was done the tower was only about a 20 minute fly I smiled as the ship floated up and into the clouds.
Once we were high in the air I set the destination to the Tower as the ship went into auto piolt I looked at Ava and felt like asking a few more questions that had been on my mind.
"Hey Ava lately i've been having these dreams about my past is that common amoung guardians?" Ava stared at me for a bit before answering my question.
"I've never heard of any guradian thats remembered there past what have you remembered so far?" Aava voice sounded like she was giddy but also confused when she answered.
"I guess it must be a rare thing, but I remember living in a forest with wolfs I think one of them was my father and there was also this recent one I had about me and my sister who is appreantly something called an awoken and this other girl named holiday who i'm not sure if I had a crush on or what, Oh and I really wanted to race someone called cayde. I finished as I checked the map it looked like we were only 20 more minutes away.
"Well there is a guardian at the tower called cayde and i'm pretty sure I've seen this holiday person before at the tower to, but I've never heard of a person being raised by wolfs or A human having a Awoken sister hmm." Ava seemed lost in thought by my question so I left her alone.
I looked outside the window of my ship as we got closer to The last city it seemed pretty big and surrounded by mountains along with huge walls that seemed to either be destroyed or being repaired by the number of lights that could be seen flickering in the dark however none of this was as impressive as the Giant orb hovering over the city it appeared broken at the bottom of it as if some large blast was shot at it however as I looked at it along with the rest of the city a single word entered my mind 'Wow.'
My mind started to wonder if the bar I had dreamed of was still down there in the city as we flew over it when My ship comm suddenely started to blink telling me that some one was trying to make contact I felt my heart start to race a bit.
"Lets just hope they don't shoot us down." I said as I pressed the comm button a voice could be heard playing from inside the ship.
"Piolet your ship is not registered with this tower on what business do you have here." The male voice spoke.
"I'm a new guarding and i've just recently got my ghost and escaped from a place called the Dead Zone." I answered quickly cheecking with Ava to make sure I had gotten the name of the place right.
"Bullshit no guradian comes out of the dead zone least of all a new one- Oh Hunter what oh umm all right here." The person behind the comm seemed to be taken aback by this Hunter, The comm broke for a few seconds Me and Ava floated by the Towers wall just hoping the big guns wouldnt start firing.
Suddenly the voice came back however this one was new and it sounded off as if not entirely human however I felt like I had heard it before yet I just couldn't quite place it.
"Now then Guardian I see your a hunter nice choice by the way mind telling me that story about the dead zone cause I gotta say I'm just not buying it." the voice finished
"Its true." I was about to explain what had happened when the voice immidetaly responded.
"It can't be Kiara?" the voice asked the question.
"You know me?" I asked confused as to who this person was or how they knew me.
"I'm giving you access to the tower just leave your ship in auto pilot and I'll meet you in the hanger this isn't a conversation we need to have over the comms.
I did as the voice told me as my ship was suddenly being guided towards the hanger as the hanger doors opened I saw a bunch of robots walking along metal walkways repairing different parts of the hanger as my ship started to land on the ground. I noticed a couple of ships that made my ship look like nothing but scrap parts, I also noticed different people walking along the hallway corridors some wearing armor others wearing casual clothing along with a few robots to.
I took note of five guys in huge looking armor that seemed unbreakable while there weapons looked like they could end several wars on there on I also took note on a few other People some wearing what looked like robes and others who had more lighter looking gear they all were either running to some destination or standing around chating.
Once my ship docked I looked out my window and saw a cyan colored robot staring at my ship it wore a cape with a brown armor chest piece along with some pants that I couldn't quite describe however even from me just sitting in my ship I could tell the armor that the robot was wearing was on par to the five guys that I had saw eariler.
The top hatch to my ship opened up and I climbed out of it once I had got out I was immidetaly welcomed with a golden hand gun pointed at my face the robot motioned for me to raise my hands and I did, Ava floated next to me not sure if she should speak or not.
I raised my hands slowly the robot eyed me for a few minutes as several people came rushing towards the ship scanning it with a blue light that resembled Ava's when she had scanned my gun. 'Uh Ava a little help here.' I thought to myself hoping Ava could some how hear me
" Sorry Guardian Now typically I don't like being the bad guy but we gotta make sure its really you Kiara you just never know what the Darkness might try so just bare with it for awhile longer, hey you guys done yet?" the robot asked over to the people scanning my ship I decided to keep my mouth closed less that be the least of my problems.
Six of the people stopped scanning my ship while one of the female ones walked up to the robot that held a gun to my face the person seemed to show him a chart before looking at me i couldn't see the person face they wore a helmet but something about this persons helmet seemed familar.
I watched as the robot asked the lady if she was sure one final time the lady nodded her head as her and her crew left the robot sighed and i could feel my heart start to beat rapidly i must of looked anxious as the robot seemed more on guard then he had been before however ever he lowered his guard along with his gun slowly i had assumed it was in an effort to clam me down and weirdly enough it did I slowly let my arms downs as the robot began to speak.
"So i've got some good news and some bad news which would you like to hear first and yeah I know I still haven't told you who I am or how I know your name i'll get to that part but first pick your poison Guardian." I watched the robot holster his gun as my mind tried to wrap around what exactly was happening.
"Umm the good news." I voiced before I relized that I even had my heart had finally decided to agree on a steady rythem as the robot told me the good news.
"Okay then the good news is your story cheeks out to which in all honesty i'm surprised." the robot sighed again as it voiced its complaint about oweing someone something called glimmer.
"And the bad news?" I asked although I was sure I didn't want to know what it was.
"Right before we get into that ghost why don't you float over here for a second." the robot asked as ava floated slowly away from me and stayed floating next to the robot which made me a bit nervous.
"Right so the bad news is you still have some Dark zone residue on your body now unfortanuly you can't just take a shower and wash it off and it dosent simply go away on its own nope theres only one way to remove it." As the robot finished speaking i looked at Ava for any sign of information about what the robot was talking about however Ava seemed as confused as me about what the robot was talking about.
"So how do I get rid of it." I asked although every thought in my body seemed to regret the descusion
"Its actually really easy and simple, you just have to Die." Before i could say another word i felt and heard the explosive sound of five shots that hit me in the chest as i quickly fell to the floor my world becoming surrounded in black i tried to look towards the robot who shot me and ava who was now hovering with a giant blue light surrounding her. The Last Words I could hear were the robot voice saying.
"Sorry Kiara but it really is the only way My name is Cayde i'll explain everything to you when you wake up my Daughter."
