Shadow watched as Sable walked away. He turned to Nadia.

"Yes, I'm Shadow-16, Nightstalker Subclass. Call me Shadow."

Elsa soon rushed in, her braid tucked behind her head with her helmet in her arms.

"I'm here."

"Good to see you, Elsa. How's Kat?"

"Anna and her are out shopping for baby clothes."

Shadow smiled softly to himself.

"So..who's all here? Sound off."

[XxBarricadeXx]

Aurora nooded as she listened. She repeated the words in her head so she would remember. It did help her. So they were going to look for the one that was stranded? It sounded good to her, and she didn't mind at all. The warlock was up for it.

She nodded as she listened to him. She knew they did have to be careful. Since she worked for Orxy, and basically was a taken, she didn't have light. Or she didn't have a ghost either. If she was to die, it would be all over for her. She didn't have a ghost to revived herself.

" Alrighrt. " Aurora said. She had gotten everything they had said. So her and the Titian were going to find the stranded person out there. She was ready.

Kat looked over at Anna as she smiled. " Yes. Thank you. " She said.

Feron | Human Male | Nightstalker Hunter | Tagged: Nadia, Elsa, Shadow, Raid Group/Any | Location: Earth -> The Tower

His gaze traveled in the direction she gestured, spotting the other Hunter quickly. He'd let his gaze pass over him only moments ago, and hadn't suspected that the Hunter would be their fireteam leader. Not that it mattered much, everyone held their own power in different ways, some by the way they walked, others by their talk, some you just couldn't tell at all until the thick of battle raged close. "Shadow, huh? Pretty sick name for a Hunter, wish I thought of something as witty as that." He grinned, but it faded shortly thereafter at the mention of getting split up. He didn't like that idea one bit, but the call was not his to make. If the Fireteam leader called for it, it was their duty to obey. He was lost in thought for the moment, and so slightly caught off guard as she shoved against him lightly, a scoff leaving him, as if offended. "Oh! You think I'd really do something as horrible as that?" He asked with a mock sadness in his tone, though he couldn't keep the sly grin off his face. "Naah I'd never, your Ghost on the other hand has a habit of speaking out loud, best watch that one."

As she set off, he trailed slightly to the side of her, the ends of his cape dragging soundlessly behind him. That reminded him that he needed to get it fitted to his form. He'd pried it off an Archon a long while back, and it nearly swallowed him whole if he held its ends out and around him. He often forgot about it unless in some cases it caught on something, to which he'd curse himself for being so darn forgetful. As she slowed to a stop, he would lean against the vault, keeping the overbearing sun off his scalp as he tucked into the shadows. Eyes trailed over to the Hunter, who was having what appeared to be a short and to the point conversation with another Guardian. He watched the exchange of a pendent, but kept his nose out of their business. "Lets get it over with." He would say in response, slowly following along, and standing just beside Nadia as she said her hello.

He found it amusing, the more professional approach she was taking, and thankfully she lost it before he did, a half smirk stretching his face as he fought back his snicker. He cleared his throat slightly before nodding his hello to the fireteam leader, choosing silence as his approach. He was surprised to find out that Shadow was a Nightstalker like himself, it caught him off guard and his brow perked in his interest. He was about to speak his mind when a familiar voice reached him, and carefully he would shift his gaze to the female Titan. Elsa, was it? He hadn't had the chance to really speak much with the Titan on their last mission, but he regarded her highly for her specialized powers, holding a certain kind of respect for her.

"Sargent First Class Feron, 163rd Airborn Aviation division." He responded quickly to Shadow's call of a sound off, his head shaking slightly to snap him out of the flashback. His throat cleared quickly, his eyes darting to the side. "Excuse that, flashbacks have been a thing for quite some time for me." He would say, "What I meant to say is, Feron, Nightstalker class." He offered a smile his mind wandering to the fact that Elsa mentioned something of childrens clothing. Did that mean Shadow was to be a father? Interesting, perhaps a conversation for another time though.

[Saberius Prime]

Anna found a light red onesie.

"Oooh..that is so adorable looking. What do you think?"

Shadow nodded.

"Gather up your gear and stack up on ammo synths. Report back here when your done. Next."

Shadow smiled again. He liked being the drill sergeant kind of guy.

[A.Kira-]

Akari~
"Norway?" she cocked an eyebrow. The look on her face was that of an angry mother just before she scolds her children. "You're telling me that they're sending Norway on this mission? I really didn't want to deal with her again. Plus Shadow-16. This will be fun. Last time I saw those two I was abandoning-" she stopped suddenly. She wasn't just abandoning Shadow and Elsa when she did that. She had abandoned Roman. "Yeah, been a while since I saw those two." she mumbled, her voice dropping. She led him out the front door and towards the tower, releasing his hand as not to embarrass him. She thought that it was quite strange that there were 2 titans and 4 hunters being sent on this journey, but no Warlocks. Who needed Warlock's anyway. So snide and condescending. The 'educated' class. Data-5 was the only she'd met that she liked.

As they grew closer and closer to the tower she found herself getting angrier and angrier. With her luck the fireteam leader would be Norway or Shadow. If either of them gave her an order she'd throttle them. She didn't take orders from- oh geez. Her ghost was right about the God Complex. She didn't care, though. Once a leader, always a leader and she was a well-established one. Too bad that was 600 flippin' years ago and nobody knew about now! Not a single history book with her name in it! After all she'd done?! She redirected her thoughts. She couldn't lose her mind before she even got to the tower. "Looks like I'll be sticking with you this mission. Buddy system. We're a powerhouse couple anyway, right?" she smiled, lightly bumping her fist into his shoulder.

Hyde~
So, today was the day? He watched the raid team form near the railing of the plaza. Looked like they were only missing 2 or 3 members to make a full fireteam. One of which was Roman, that sunbreaker Titan. He'd encountered Roman on a few occasions after Akari and himself had come back through that vex gate on Venus. Mostly because he still did dealings with Akari. After all, she was pretty much his boss now. He was darn near required to follow her to the ends of the earth if that was what she wanted. He owed her his life.

Ileana~
She leaned against the railing in the plaza opposite of the forming raid team, watching them carefully. Despite her trips to the future she had no idea whether or not they'd be successful. She hoped, if only for the sake of the tower, that they would be. If they weren't more would fill their shoes and go in their stead, using the information that had been dug up for the betterment of their mission. This mission had nothing to do with skill, intelligence, disciple or strength. This mission was luck. Good guardians died every day.

[Saberius Prime]

Elsa spotted Akari and quietly went over to her.

"I'm sorry for the way I was back...you know...I would like to be friends..if...you want?"

She went back to the group, and stood next to Shadow.

[~SongOfFlames~]

.
Nadia nodded her head, hearing the small introduction given to them by their fireteam leader. Yep. It was confirmed. This was Shadow. It was intriguing to learn that he shared the same subclass as Feron. The Nightstalkers were relatively new to the scene, so you didn't see too many of them that often. Same goes with the Sunbreakers and the Stormcallers. Feron had actually been the first Nightstalker that she has ever met."Glad to meet you." she responded, but fell silent when she heard the sound of hurried footsteps from behind her. From out of instinct, she rapidly took a few steps to the side to make a small sweeping motion off to the side. She blinked her eyes a few times in recognition when she spotted a familiar  face of the past. "Oh hey there! Good morning." she told the Titan with a faint smile. She raised an eyebrow when Shadow mentioned something about shopping for baby clothing. Wait, what? She looked over to Shadow, and then back to Elsa with a bit of confusion. A baby? Really? One of them was having a baby or already had one? She was assuming that maybe Shadow had a wife back at home with the baby that has been mentioned. What a joyous occasion. Shame that they would have to spend the time out there on the Dreadnaught. Children were a blessing. They were innocent with this endless curiosity of the world around them. While it may have not been the best era to be born in with the darkness and all, it was one of the reasons why she fought so hard out there in hopes that the future generations to come would have a better world to live in.


She snapped back to attention when she heard the order to sound off. She stiffened with her posture straightening within a second's notice. Nadia flicked her gaze over to Feron when he went all out with his response. She waited for a moment with her arms crossing over her chest. "Yeah. I can't top that." she said with the subtle curve of a smile as she looked over to Feron. She remembered the story that he had told her. Correction. Stories. Unlike her, he was able to recall bits and pieces of his previous life before he was that of a Guardian. He was a soldier in this life and the previous one. He climbed up the rankings that landed him with the responsibility of piloting a fighter jet. And well, that piece of his past managed to slip out in response to the sound off. "Artamanova, to heed at your beck and call." she said softly while she dropped her arms to the side."We are just missing-ah never mind." she was starting to say, but corrected herself shortly after."I'm starting to believe that you really do have eyes on the back of your head." Her Ghost remarked even though he was out of plain sight."That's basic information. All women have eyes on the back of the head. " she replied with a low chuckle."We have six. So, fire team leader? To orbit?" she asked, just as she was about to turn around. That was when this weird feeling wavered over her, and gave her the heebie jeebies. It felt like an ice cube had been dropped along her back to leave a chilling sensation running down her spine.Goosebumps prickled her skin, to which she lifted her arms to cross them against her chest. Where did that come from? She looked over to the last two additions with a bit of curiosity. Titan and another Hunter. Both looked as tough as nails. She lifted her gaze up to Feron, and then she spoke."Are we taking separate ships or...?" she was starting to say, but she figured he knew what she was talking about. 


~~




Well, she managed to put two and two together to figure out the other mystery fire team member that wasn't named."Ah, yes. Ms. Norway. " he confirmed, right around when he caught that look on her face. Geesh. He sure as hell didn't want to be that person that received that death glare.It gave him a reason to why he should always be on her good side and to never upset her. She wasn't all too happy that she would be apart of the team that had anything to do with the other Titan. It wasn't like they had much of a choice to whom they would be working alongside. It was pre-selected by the Vanguards. Plus, he did kind of owed Shadow. Without his help to breaking out of the facility to where they held him in a cell, he would had a necklace of rope strung around his neck. He would have been executed. That was something that he did not mention to Akari. Mostly because she'd be the one to kill him for hearing that he was so close to not even having the chance to escape to the Dreadnaught.  He looked over to her when she cut off what she was telling him. "Hey, honey. Try not to think about them too much okay? Just focus on the objective." he told her. When he felt her drop his hand, he did something that was typical of a stubborn Titan like him. He reached for her hand, and held it for just a little more longer. When they drew closer to the Tower, that was when he released her hand.

The both of them had been silent through this trek to the Tower. Usually, he wasn't bothered with the silence. He didn't find it awkward for no words to be exchanged as they walked. Though he had a feeling that she remained quiet for a whole other reason. She was like a soda bottle that has been shaken. It would only take very little to set her off. He looked over to her, when she brought up that they would be implementing a buddy system.  As she mentioned the word 'power house couple', a smile danced upon his lips."You're darn right. We are simply the best." he responded as he rounded the corner so that they would be entering the plaza that the rest of the fire team was waiting. They weren't late were they? He could have sworn they had an extra fifteen minutes. He recognized a few of these faces of the fireteam. There was the other Titan by the name of Elsa with the gift of snow and ice. Then, there was Shadow with some background work with previous assignments that dealt with the Vanguard. Also, that sneaky guy that was on the Dreadnaught that was apart of the hunting party. How ironic that they would put him on the same team with a Guardian that had been hot on his trail not too long ago. Meh, no hard feelings.  Past was the past. He wouldn't let that blind him of the objective at hand. Then, there was another Hunter standing beside him. He didn't recognize her. New face. New person. "Sorry for being late. Heh. Kids these days. Pushing all the buttons on the elevator." he said as he looked over to Shadow to see what the order was. He had no idea where this entrance to the ascendant realm was, so he would have to lead them there.

With a few adjustments to the current attitude and the overall speed, Rourke released his hold on the control of the aircraft before getting up to stand."I trust that you will not nose dive this ship right to the side of the mountain." he said, and with that, he relinquished the controls to April. He got up from the seat so that April could quickly pull a head set over her head and take the controls from this point on. He pulled the rifle from off his back, and moved to the back of the ship. He opened up a channel that the both of them could use to communicate, and then reached for a lever off to the side of the ship that would bring the ramp back down. He felt the ship beginning to slow down with the ramp being brought down. He looked over to Aurora for a moment, before he was the first to drop down. It wasn't a long fall, so she should be fine. Plus, the snow did cushion the landing. His gaze wandered up the craggy and snow-covered terrain of the mountain side. A beacon lit up on his HUD that indicated where they needed to go. The last location to where this person has been spotted. It had only been a few hours ago when one of the scouts spotted something that glinted from off the distance. With curiosity and caution, the scout wandered over to where it had been. There wasn't anyone that had been found, but there were some tracks that led up further into the mountain. They could have not gone far."Let me know if you see anything." he told Aurora, before he started to follow after the trail. A trail would be the overglorified state,rent of the century considering how narrow this path really was. One slip up, and you'd be tumbling down the side of the mountain with a flurry of snow. He began the trek up alongside the mountain, and he would glance over his shoulder to check up on Aurora once in a while. There was at one point in time in which he could have sworn he heard the melodic and resonating sound of a wind chime billowing in the wintry winds. He soon found out that he wasn't just imaging things. The pathway grew wider to reveal an archaic and abandoned monastery nestled at the ridge of the mountain. Hmm...interesting. His eyes traveled over to the wooden doors with one of them moving back and forth slightly with the wind up here. They might have taken shelter here to survive the day and night. Especially if they were injured.

[Saberius Prime]

Shadow nodded.

"Three ships for a totally of six people. Elsa and I will be taking the "Night Fury." Nadia you and Feron decide on which ship you will take, and Akari and Roman will be going in their own ship. Gather your weapons and gear, and meet back here. Wheels up in fifteen minutes."

[A.Kira-]

((No, is Nadia scared of them? Nadia, why you so adorable?!))

Akari~
"Yeah, I'll do my best," she nodded. She did need to stay focused on the objective. It was definitly more important than Norway and Shadow. Which was why when Elsa approached Akari and apologized Akari didn't speak. A short laugh managed to escape her when Elsa said something along the lines of being friends. Akari didn't make friends. She made mutually beneficial relationships with guardians of a high enough skill level. Data-5 and Roman were the only exceptions. Data-5 was only an exception because he had helped her tremendously, and she in return helped him. She'd brought that exo more salvage than she could even remember over the last five months. She failed to tell him that the larger loads were comparable to blood money. He didn't ask, she didn't tell.

She felt her body relax a bit when she heard Shadow say they were taking three seperate ships. She didn't want to board with Shadow, Elsa or Feron. It didn't seem like a good idea. Nadia was the only one she didn't know. That was about to change. She approached the hunter, giving her a once over. "You appear to be the only fireteam member here I haven't picked a fight with. My name is Akari, Gunslinger Hunter. Don't worry, I'm not out to pick a fight today." She had a more serious tone than usual as she extended her hand to Nadia. "I was a last minute addition to the team."

Carmela | Human Female | Sunbreaker Titan| Tagged: Ileana/Any | Location: Earth -> The Tower

Mel's civilians practically melted away into her armor, the bulk of the metals feeling delightful against her muscles after months of being locked away. Of course, it wasn't like she gained an ounce while she was off-duty, she found the Gym to be a delightful place when she wasn't moving her home around. Her shoulders rolled with her armor, a smile stretching her lips as she pushed forward into the Plaza. She paid the forming group no mind as she passed them, she'd already said her hello's to Feron on her way in, the others were either likely not on her good side, or completely unknown.

Icy gaze shifted over the Plaza, spotting the familiar form of one of her only friends. Her brows lifted as she wandered closer, her head tilting to the side slightly as her grin only widened. She would approach directly, not wishing to startle the Warlock, her arms shifting over her chest once she was close enough. "Fancy meeting you here." She would smirk, moving to the side silghtly to pass her gaze in the direction Ileana had been looking. The raid group? She stiffened, having noticed that Ileana's sister was part of the group. Perhaps that is why she was so keen on watching them?

Feron | Human Male | Nightstalker Hunter | Tagged: Nadia, Elsa, Shadow, Akari, Roman/Any | Location: Earth -> The Tower

His cheeks had begun to warm from embarrassment from the sudden slip up, and with a sharp glace to the side Pax took the hint and brought in his helmet, the material forming over his skull and sealing tightly. A mere nod would be given, and his feet would swiftly take him away from the group, and toward Banshee-44. He'd nearly forgotten to pick up some synths, and after passing his card over he was presented a hefty stack of what he requested. Keeping his voice to coms only, he had Pax stash them away as he turned back. For some odd reason, he figured this Shadow guy would use his flashbacks to his advantage, especially with how uptight he was beginning to act, though it wasn't Feron's place to say anything about it as he moved back beside Nadia, catching the tail end of the conversation the other female Hunter was saying to her. He recognized her immediately, the one who was with Roman on the Dreadnaught. He stiffened visibly, but was thankful he now wore his helmet so that they could not see the grief that struck him. Of course he felt bad for going after the two, and now it was going to make things.. a tad awkward for him. He was clearly unsure of where he stood with the two, and with out a word he shifted his stance to an 'at ease' stature, legs at shoulder width while his hands clasped one another behind his back.

He wasn't too sure of himself around all these new faces, nervous, if not a bit intimidated by the choice of Guardians he would be taking down the Taken King with. "I am already prepped, Fireteam leader. Nadia, we can take my ship, if you don't mind." His helmet shifted slightly as if making eye contact with his companion, but it was likely hard to tell through his visor. If was the first words he'd spoken since the introductions, but they were steady, easily cloaking the unease he was feeling. He could only hope that everyone would get along, and not try and strangle each other before they even left the Tower, well, more so strangle him. He would side-eye the male Titan, his helmet not so much as moving the slightest as he did so.
