(Kate pov)
Kate was about to die, she knew it. The hooded man walked up next to her and knelt down, and removed her sword from her scabbard.
"You won't need that." He said. Kate turned her head away, she had nothing to say to the man. "Aw come on," He groaned, in another bit of exaggerated sarcasm. "Don't be like that. I just wanna know why ya' been following' me for six hours straight."
"WHO ARE YOU?!" Kate blurted, becoming more and more nervous in the presence of this person. Though she couldn't put it into words something just seemed off about him.
"My name is Iven Vikarus," He said with an air of pride. "And you might be?"
Kate stared at the man, er Iven, wondering if he had a screw loose. Surely he Insane.
"You might be wondering if I'm crazy," He stated, as if on cue. "Your answers is… probably, depends on your definition of insanity." Kate squirmed trying to get free but the daggers the held her down we planted in the ground. "Relax, its not like I'm Herobrine."
Iven, amused by his own joke cracked up and the laugh which ensued was indeed more, that of a madman, than anything else.
Iven pulled back his hood, and Kate, now with an up close look, realized her estimation of his age had been wrong, Iven looked as if he was only in his early twenties, but from his voice, and the way he carried himself she would have placed him in at least in his forties. He had the air of someone who'd been to hell and back, but hadn't returned unscathed.
Kate tried to think of ways she could get out of this situation. The Sky Army was a planetary defence force and they were often depicted as almost godlike heroes. though that was far from true surely this "Iven" had heard the stories.
"I'm Katelan Marko, Scout, of the Sky Army." She proclaimed, with what little dignity she had left. A smile that was both friendly and threatening, spread across his face….
(Ty pov)
Ty surveyed the pile of rubble that had once been the Headquarters. What a mess… He thought to himself. I hope Sky and the others are okay.
Several Sky Army commanders had gathered at what Ty presumed was the makeshift command center, and he could see many Soldiers and recruits alike working frantically to clear away the wreckage.
Ty headed over to one of the recruits. He had to find out what, no who had done this, it was blatantly obvious the destruction had not been natural. He tapped the recruit on the back and said, with as much authority as he could muster.
"Hey, uh, what the hell happened here?" It wasn't much, but it was enough. The recruit snapped to attention.
"General!? Sir, the headquarters has been destroyed-"
"I know that, Recruit! Tell me how it happened, who did this?" Ty said beginning to regain his confidence.
"It was one person sir." the recruit said after a moments pause.
"Man or woman"?
"I don't know sir."
"What did this person look like?"
"I don't know… sir."
"What do you know?"
"I don't know, sir" The recruit paused as if realizing what he had said and corrected himself. "I don't know the details, I wasn't here when it happened, I suggest speaking with the Supreme Commander."
"Surely there were more people here than Sky." Ty pointed out.
"There were sir, The supreme commander is the only one left…"
