I do not own Destiny or Percy Jackson, I only own my OCs.
"How you guys sure do like this story! I am glad you are enjoying it and leaving reviews for me to answer, as I love to talk to you guy/gals!"
"Hey ROW say something nice to the readers! That does not use the words Something, Nice, To, The, and Readers."
"Thank you guys and gals for taking the time to read this story, we hope you enjoy."
Guest 1: Yup Guardians are not bound by fate so the Fates will have no power over them. Can't wait to see the look on their faces.
Guest 2: Don't worry you will be seeing exotics and artifacts or different kinds in this story who knows I might even add something… fun in as well ;). Yup the gods will not be happy that guardians can use powers similar to their domains such as Arc Light.
Guest 3: How so? You're going to need to give me examples of the characters being "Mary Sue-ish" if we are going to argue this.
Lancelot-07: Considering Guardians have killed god like beings more powerful than the likes of the Greek gods (I.E. Crota, Atheon, Oryx, and that one worm god whose name escapes me) I would say the stronger of the Guardians would be on a god-killer level. I don't know why you are bringing Gilgamesh, Karna and Ramses II up but hey.
Alight kids gather around its story time.
"Get away from me you stupid boy!" The girl yelled attacking the hunter with her silver dagger.
Orion being an experienced hunter easily disarmed her by knocking her weapon out of her hand. The hunter grabbed the girl's hand and twisted her arm roughly causing her to cry out in pain and fall to her knees. She tried to break free, but the hunter just twisted her arm further ending her attempt cold.
"Young girl, you shouldn't attack people you don't know." Orion scolded the young teen. "You should also not call someone stupid when you don't know them."
"Unhand me!" She demanded thought gridded teeth.
"Not until you promised not to attack me," Orion replied. "If you keep attacking me your going to hurt yourself."
"Go to Hades!" The girl yelled at him before trying to get out of his hold again.
Orion sighed and shook his head as he was getting tired of this. Switching his light focuses to arc, he sent a "weak" arc wave through her body. The girl screamed in pain as the arc light surged through her body. Orion felt her resistance fade allowing him to let go of her arm, the girl fell to the ground her body slightly twitching.
"That should wear off in about ten minutes, and some words of advice. Try to be nicer to people, you never know when you're going to meet the person you're going to spend the rest of your life with." Orion said before backing away and starting back the way he came.
Once Orion was a good distance away, he asked Dewi to summon his sparrow. The hunter's sparrow transmitted into existence allowing him to get on before he took off towards the city. Whoever that girl was she must have been a part of some camper group, as that would explain the bow and daggers. Though it was odd as to why this camping group would use silver daggers and arrows as silver was a very weak metal.
Orion decided not to think into it to much as didn't think he was going to be seeing them again. However, despite his doubt his gut was telling him he was going to be seeing her again in the future. No matter she would be easily dealt with.
The hunter made it back to the city not twenty minutes later, he quickly dismissed his sparrow and armor before anyone could spot him. First order of business was to find a place to call home for the time being. As such the first person the hunter would have to seek out was a retailer, of course he would need money as he had a feeling the people in this time period would not take his glimmer.
"Dewi I need you to start building me an Identity," Orion asked his ghost as he made his way through the crowded streets of New York. "Preferably one that wont be picked apart easily by a background check and start building some funds while you're at it."
'Alright," Dewi answered happily. 'Do you want to use your real name or a fake one.'
"Real, sometimes it better to hide in plain sight."
'If you say so.' Dewi answered not buying her guardian's excuse. 'By the way we got a contact at six o'clock, large human male with one eye.'
"One eye? As in he has one eye left?" Orion asked taking a quick look behind him.
'No, as in he has one eye in the just above his nose.'
"That's not normal."
'Nope neither is the weird energy he is giving off.' Dewi added. 'It's not quite like the darkness but it does have some similarities. He is also looking at you rather hungrily, and this is not the "I haven't eaten in a long time" hungry look. This is "I see something delicious" look.'
Orion was not liking the sound of that. If this thing was looking to take a bite out of him, he was in for a surprise. The Old Guard Hunter turned into an alleyway, once he was a good distance in he used his lift ability to jump up to the metal stair going up the side of the building. Once the hunter was a good distance up, he jumped up on the railing and waited for his prey to come to him.
Soon enough the one-eyed man turned into the alleyway. He started to walk further into the alley, totally unaware of the deadly warrior waiting above. The man started to smell the air as if he was a dog trying to get a scent.
Orion stood up before jumping off drawing his knife in the process. The hunter did a single flip mid-air before landing on the man's back and sliding his knife into his neck. The man cried out in surprise and pain. Before the man could rack Orion pulled himself up, jumped off the man's shoulders turned and threw his knife at him.
The sudden force from Orion's kick off knocked the man to the ground, he tried to get back up but the hunter's knife soon found its mark pushing the man back down. Orion approached the down man and put his boot on the knife's hilt pushing the blade deeper into his body.
"You've been following me," Orion said standing over the one-eyed man. "I don't like being followed. So, you can tell my why you are following me, or I can just leave you here to run the risk of bleeding out."
"You intruder." The man hissed out almost like a caveman. "Me eat intruder."
Orion raised his eyebrow. In a blink of an eye Orion had drawn his pistol and shot the man in the head. If what this thing said was true and he ate intruders, then he was a threat that needed to be put down. Thus, was the charge of all guardians, kill things that were a threat to humanity.
Moments after the guardian shot the man his whole body turned to a golden dust. Orion took a step back to look at what had just happened, to say he was surprised was an understatement.
"Dewi, what the hell just happened?"
Orion's ghost appeared beside her guardian and started to scan the gold dust. She sat there for a few moments before she stopped scanning the dust and turned to her hunter.
"I have no idea, he died but it appears that he was teleported somewhere." Dewi explained. "I can only compare it to banishing a powerful Taken back to wherever they come from."
"So that thing was some kind of Taken or Hive?" Orion asked while using his Sol Light to destroy all traces of the dust.
"No… I wasn't detecting anything remotely similar to the reading I get from Hive or The Taken." Dewi said returning to her guardian's body. 'I'm going to shoot Sid a message, so he can tell his guardian about this.'
"Good idea," Orion agreed having a quick chuckle. "You know I bet our titan is already neck deep in these things."
*Meanwhile*
"BURN!" A certain Titan yelled as he made use of a makeshift flamethrower. "IF IT'S A CHOICE BETWEEN REGULAR OR EXTRA CRISPY I WANT YOU EXTRA CRISPYYYY!"
"BBBBUUUURRRNNN!"
*With Orion*
'I wouldn't be surprised.' Dewi replied dryly.
"Well I think it's high time we get a house to call home for a few centuries." The Old Guard Hunter said walking out of the alleyway and back into the human traffic that was New York's streets.
'uh Orion I just got another guardians IFF on my scanners.'
"Are you sure this the location?" Osiris asked his ghost, Sagira who was scanning one of the destroyed vex gates.
"I'm pretty sure." Sagira replied idly.
"I need you to be sure." Osiris said seriously. "We need The Vex Bane if we are to defeat the Vex, and Orion's skills are not replaceable."
The former Old Guard Warlock walked up to the only gate to survive the timestream merge. The Warlock kneeled down beside it to perform his own inspection.
"When are you going to call him by his name rather than his title?" Sagira asked flying over to Osiris.
"When he chooses a real name." Osiris replied instantly as his ghost had asked him that question so many times. "Who names themselves Slim anyways? Why not Nick, or Hyperion, something that a mother would name their child."
"Slim is a guy." Sagira reminded him. "I don't believe he would think like a mother when naming himself."
"The point is," Osiris clarified. "Until he finds a good name for himself I will continue to call him by his title. Even if we were in a fireteam together at one point."
The two became quiet for a few moments, the quiet allowing Osiris to concentrate. It did not take the Warlock long to figure out what happened to the two guardians. He had spent centuries learning how the Vex worked, however what he found worried him.
"The Vex made a mistake." Osiris said standing up. "They were attempting to revert The Vex Bain and Orion to a younger version of themselves in an attempt to weaken them, instead they sent them back in time."
"It's not like the Vex to make a mistake." Sagira commented.
"No, it's not," Osiris said darkly before turning and pulling out three glowing cubes with symbols on each side.
"Osiris what are you doing?" Sagira asked urgently.
"If they were sent back on purpose then the Vex are planning something and we must be there to stop it." Osiris said as he put the cubs into a series of combinations. A portal started to open in front of the guardian.
"Osiris, I don't think this is a good idea."
"We do not have a choice." Osiris said before grabbing his ghost and throwing her into the portal before following in after her.
Far from the city of New York in a dense forest a white portal opened. The arrival of the portal caused the leaves on the trees to rustle as if a strong wind was blowing through. Moments after the portal opened a golden shelled ghost came flying out only managing to stabilize herself after bouncing off a tree. Soon after the old warlock stepped thought, said warlock scanned his surroundings looking for anything out of the ordinary.
"Osiris!" Sagira yelled at her guardian. "I have told you a thousand times do not throw me into portals!"
"We don't have time to argue this Sagira," Osiris commanded walking past his ghost and into the forest. "I need you to locate The Vex Bane and Orion."
Sagira let go of a frustrated sigh before she started to scan the comms for any guardians IFFs.
"Ok I got Orion's position but Slim's IFF is offline," Sagira reported. "Must be doing something. I also took the liberty of looking at the date, its 2008 by the way, and I will be making some civilian clothes for you to wear."
"They will not be needed."
"Ha no," Sagira countered getting in her guardian's face. "You will be wearing what I give you and you will not be walking around in your armor."
"Sagira-" Osiris started but was cut off when his armor was replied with civilian clothes from the time era.
In place of his robes Osiris now wore a dark amber t-shirt and black jeans with brown boots. Though he retained his long vestment, although it was less eye catching then his normal one. Overall, he did stand out in a crowd, but he wasn't someone you would stop and stare at.
Osiris inspected his new clothes that his ghost had made for him. "Is this necessary?"
"Yes, now that you are properly dressed we can continue on." Sagira said transmitting back into her guardian.
Seeing that his ghost was not going to return his armor, Osiris growled and started walking towards the city in the distance. Damn ghost couldn't even give him his sparrow, most likely payback for throwing her into the portal. It took the warlock two hours to reach the city and the sun had begun to set.
Some of the people give the guardian weird looks as to them he was an old man who was walking through the streets with the energy of a teenager. However, the guardian paid them no mind as he had more important things to do then worry about how people saw him. By the time Osiris reached the building that Orion was transmitting from the sun was just about to set, and the lights of the city were starting to turn on.
The warlock found Orion sitting in a waiting room with his head resting on his closed fist. Osiris knew that Orion knew that he was present as few things escaped a hunter's senses, even when they were asleep. The fact that the hunter was asleep struck the warlock as odd seeing as guardians did not need to sleep.
Osiris approached the hunter and hit Orion's shoulder with his hand. The hunter's eyes slowly opened and began to look up at the person who hit him. His eyes squinted as if he was trying to remember him, it did not take long for him to remember the guardian before him.
"Osiris," Orion asked confused as to why the warlock was before him. "When did you get thrown back in time?"
"I came after you when I noticed the Vex began to change their simulations in The Infinite Forest." Osiris replied drily almost angry.
"Well it's good to see you after… what has it been five hundred years?"
"You have to excuse me if I chose to prioritize humanities survival against the Vex over my social life."
The hunter crossed his arms. "Slim has been fighting the Vex just as long as you have, and you don't see him disappearing for decades on end."
"What I do is different from what the Vex Banes does." Osiris shot back instantly. "Although the Vex Bane has earned his title on multiple occasions and has dealt the Vex many crippling blows, he has only been fighting the Vex in the present. I have been fighting off the Vex in the past, present, and future."
"I don't know about that remember when Slim combined every Atheon in existence then proceeded to kill it?"
"As I remember it you had a hand in its death." Osiris commented.
Orion shrugged. "I may have dealt a few precise blows to him when he was attacking Slim, but he was doing all fight for the most part."
'We are getting off track here boys.' Dewi interrupted.
Orion let out a sight. "Anyways I suppose you're here to bring us back to our present."
"Of course the damage you could cause-" Osiris began but was cut off.
"Has already been done," Orion said standing up meeting the other guardian's glair. "We are here now, and we can undo a lot of damage. We could stop the collapse from happening or at least lessen the loss of life."
Osiris shook his head and stepped back. "It would seem there is no convincing you to return,"
Orion put his hand on his hand cannon ready to draw it on the opposing warlock, as he knew that Osiris was not going to leave him in the past. He had hoped he didn't have to resort to this, but Orion was not going back without a fight.
"But if I must take you by force." Osiris took out the same three cubes he used to arrive at the time and began to arrange them.
Or he would have if they wouldn't have exploded in his hands.
Both guardians were thrown back, Orion into his chair and Osiris onto the ground. The warlock was the first to recover and to have his eyes go wide.
The Vex had trick him.
"No," Osiris growled standing to his feet before cursing. "That was the only way back!"
"Well then I guess the Vex did me a favor." Orion said getting to his feet. "Besides Dewi has been detecting a lot of unidentified energy readings all over the city. Whatever it is, it's not normal for this time period. As Guardians we have an obligation to investigate it and if it poses a danger to humanity eliminate it."
'Osiris, Orion is right.' Sagira added. 'I'm picking up some signals the likes I have never seen before and knowing us… we have seen a lot.'
"We could use you Osiris," Orion went on. "we have a hunter and a titan now we just need a warlock to complete the fireteam. But then again maybe we don't need you, we can tell the Traveler that it doesn't need to make the warlocks."
Osiris' glare intensified as the hunter made a jab at his class. Such a thing was common among the guardian class to point out the other classis's flaws. Was It childish, yes did that stop even the oldest of guardians from doing it? No not in the slightest.
"Fine." Osiris relented turning his head away. "Where is The Vex Bane?"
"I don't know his ghost stop sending a signal a few hours ago." Orion answered aside that Osiris was going to help. "But I got a way of drawing out the titan."
In the forest some miles away from the city, Artemis was searching for one of her missing hunters. The hunter in question had joined a few months ago and was just now settling into life in the hunt. Although her skills with a bow were rather lacking, she was improving and that was all she could truly ask for.
As the goddess walked on her enhanced hearing detected the sound of a girl struggling against something. Thinking that her hunter was in trouble Artemis dashed off in the same direction. It did not take the goddess to arrive and see her hunter twitching as electricity surged through her. Artemis ran to her hunter kneeling beside her and pulling out some nectar that she kept on her for moments like his.
"Elisabeth what happened?!" Artemis asked slipping the nectar into her hunter's mouth.
The hunter gratefully accepted the nectar before she even tried to speak. "I was following a male who was walking in the woods, I was worried that he was going to find the camp. He started talking to someone in this clearing before I fell out of the tree."
Artemis began to guess what had happened next and she was none too pleased. "What happened next?"
"He came over to me asking if I was ok, but I tried to attack him." Elisabeth paused and hung her head, ashamed of what happened next. "He easily disarmed me and put me in a hold, I could do nothing to get out of it. Then he used some kind of electric ability to paralyze my body."
Artemis' face began to turn to one of rage. This boy that attacked her hunter was probably a son of Zeus even though he wasn't supposed to sire any more demigod children, she was going to have a long talk with her father as soon as she got her hunter back to camp. Then she was going to go after this demigod for hurting her hunter.
"Come let's get you back to camp." All traces of anger leaving Artemis' voice as she helped her hunter to her feet.
The two made their way back to the hunter camp. Artemis handed off Elisabeth to one of her other hunters to be cared for while she went to Olympus to have a talk with her father. The goddess appeared in the council chamber in a flash of silver light. No one besides her was presence as no meetings where to happen for some time.
Summoning forth her bow Artemis knock an arrow before she pointed her bow towards the sky and let the string loose. The arrow shot towards the sky exploding into a sliver wave when it reached a certain height. Artemis turned and walked towards her throne to wait for the rest of the council to arrive.
A beam of light came over one of the thrones marking the arrival of her brother Apollo. The sun god looking quite pleased with himself for some reason.
"Hey'a little sister!" Apollo greeted his sister. "You don't call meeting very often, what gives?"
"One I am not your little sister, I helped deliver you! Two a demigod attack one of my hunters, and I want answers."
Apollo was about to question her further when the rest of council started to arrive all in their own unique ways. Zeus was upon the last one to show up his arrival marked as a thunder bolt sticking the ground. Once everyone was in their thrones Zeus looked over to his daughter a little curious as to why she called a meeting.
"My daughter why have you called us to gather?" Zeus asked the hunt goddess.
"Father today one of my hunters was attacked by what could only be described as a demigod with electric manipulation abilities." Artemis said casting an angered glare at her father.
The glare was quickly followed up by a glare from Hera, who looked like she was getting ready to slap her cheating husband. She was further angered by the fact that Zeus was found to have a sired another demigod not long ago, Thalia if she remembered correctly. She would have to find this demigod herself and deal with her if she had too.
"Why must you continue to go behind my back!" Hara yelled at her husband. "Why must you continue to chase after mortal women!"
"I haven't sired any demigod children!" Zeus yelled back defensively.
"Then how do you explain this demigod, that used Electrokinesis on Artemis' hunter!"
"I don't know!" Zeus roared thunder cracking in the background. "But this demigod is not mine! Artemis if you are certain this demigod is indeed min then find him and bring him here. Then we will see if this demigod is one of mine!"
With that Zeus left in a rage Hera following him, most likely to argue on the subject more. Artemis left almost immediately to begin tracking down the demigod while the other gods stayed behind to discuss the topic further.
"So, he had another one I'm starting to wonder if that pact is still in effect." Poseidon commented amused.
"I am beginning to wonder the same thing." Demeter agreed.
"If anything, I believe the pact has only served to slow down his lust." Athena observed with a slight smirk on her face. "Albeit slightly."
Most of the gods shared a laugh, however one voice in particular was missing, and the other gods took notice. Apollo had failed to laugh or even make his own comment on the matter. Instead the god sat quietly in this throne with his hand pressed against his left temple and eyebrows. His eyes were also shut as if he was in pain.
"Apollo are you in pain?" Aphrodite asked before the others.
The god in question raised his free hand as if to wave something off. "I'm good just been getting some strong headaches recently."
"That's not normal for you Apollo," Hermes added. "You need a look over? When did this start happening?"
"This morning." Apollo said after letting go a slight groan of discomfort. "I was having some odd dreams last night, couldn't get a good read on it either there with just too many images coming at me."
"Could you at least make out something." Athena asked coming to god's side, she wanted to make sure she did not miss anything.
Apollo slightly shook his head. "Only a few, some kind of white orb was hovering over Mars-"
"What does he have to do with anything?" Ares interrupted not liking that his other form was involved.
"The planet not the god." Apollo hissed with both of his hands clutching at his head as the pain grew worse.
"What else do you remember?" Athena asked wanting to know more.
"There were three people that kept on appearing, but I only remember their outline," Apollo went on but was struggling to remember. "The last thing I remember was some kind of three eyed giant using some kind of massive sword."
"What could this mean?" Poseidon asked confused. "This doesn't sound like a prophecy or even a vision."
Before any other question could be asked a black cloud began to form from the ground. From it came the king of the underworld.
"We have a problem."
WOO things are happening! And now for the question of the day, how do you get a titan to come out of hiding? Leave your answer in your review you may or may not get a surplice if you get it right.
