She looks towards what hit her on the head and saw nothing, for she would have seen it if it was some sort of structure. She turns and looks at her surroundings.
"Lokumi? Was that you?" She whispers to the still air, but she gets no reply from the one named Lokumi.

Alice rolled forward, avoiding any attack. She stood back up to her full height, a great sword pointed at the roof, her grip on its hilt comfortable.
-
Oryx was about to swipe at her with his sword, but instead, a sword was stuck through his head.
-
She watched as the shade falls to the ground then disappers, letting the sword clatter to the ground. "Thanks, I suppose." Alice says to the wielder.
-
Artemis stood up off of the ground and retrieved her sword. "You know, you could've saved some for me."
-
"You got the biggest one, what are you talking about?" Alice smiled as her sword dissipated.
-
"Thanks for rescuing me. Took you guys long enough to send someone."
-
"Us guys? Who? Me or your ghost?"
-
"The Vanguard. I sent that distress signal out a year ago. Where were you guys?"
-
"Well, a year ago I was still a rookie at all this. Now? Well, Vanguard sent out a message about it and I was the first one here. I'm sure some of the Vanguard Guardians are starting to walk in here all strategic and what not."
-
"While you rush in, guns blazing." She sounded a bit stern when she said this.
-
"I did not rush in," Alice said putting some mocking into her own stern voice. "I actually walked in."
-
Artemis interrupted her when she said 'not'. "Which is exactly what I would've done."
-
Alice blinked twice, then shook her head laughing. "Your cool." Then she held out her hand. "I'm strange though. The name's Alice Long."
-
"Artemis Vale. And aren't we all." She shook her hand.
-
"Do you remember the past two years?" She said, looking at the wreckage around them.

-
"Ouch, how many did ya birth?" Alice now observes the chest piece that was summoning the Taken.
-
"Honestly, it's hard to keep count when you're in constant pain and trying to sleep to pass the time."
-
"I'm sorry I didn't come sooner then. Even if it was by a few seconds. So if it's been constant pain over the last two years, how mad are ya?"
-
"Just a little. I myself rushed in here so..."
-
"Gotcha. But then again, ya kinda used to rushing, since you've been to the light house how many time?"
-
"A lot. Now, you deserve a reward.. what kind though?"
-
Alice holds up a hand. "No, I don-" She started saying, but then Artemis cut in again.
-
"Any Exotics you don't have?"
-
"I don't need a reward." Alice says quickly. "A thanks will suffice."
