[spoiler]This chapter contains descriptions of blood and gore. Nothing too extreme, but you were warned.[/spoiler] Angel and Logan started climbing a flight of stairs while watching each others' backs. Alice and Merlin continuously gave off pulses, trying to detect Daggr's location. He was nowhere to be found. Everyone was confused, and slightly worried. Why would the Vanguard send thirty Guardians to a place where Daggr was not? And if Daggr was not here, then where would he be? "Psst, Axion... Think you could find him for us?" Logan said to his Void generated pet. Without hesitation, the thing bolted down a narrow hallway of the third floor. "There's no way he already has a scent on a person he never met before..." Angel said. Logan shrug his shoulders, then followed the trail. Suddenly, an arm reached out of a doorway, and snatched Logan by the throat. The warlock tried to break its grip, but the titan only let go when he threw Logan out of a window. "Logan!" Angel screamed. The man spiraled as he plummeted back to the lobby floor. Angel turned to Daggr, then punched him a few times, but the monster barely flinched. A large blade reached out from Daggr's Vex arm, then he thrust it into Angel's stomach. She gasped and coughed up blood; Alice had to will away her helmet so Angel would not choke on it. "You would have survived the coming storm... Now I must to eradicate you like every other too weak to survive..." the titan said with a gurgled voice. Radiolaria, the Vex data milk, dripped from the monster's mouth as he spoke. Angel started to tear up as she locked her arms around her stomach. She gritted her teeth as she slowly raised her arms up. With all of her might, Angel slammed her hands onto the blade, breaking her free of the titan; the shard of the blade was still in her. She stumbled back, screaming in pain. Daggr, now furious, raised up his human arm, which had spikes welded onto the hand guard, and back handed Angel out of the window Logan fell from. Both Guardians landed on a car, crushing it from the impact. Civilians of all races, species, and genders screamed with fear as they looked upon the Protectors. Logan blinked his eyes, trying to regain vision, then he lifted his head up. Beside him, Angel was dead; a blood-stained sword was in her abdomen, blood dripping from the edges of her mouth, and five clear gashes across her left cheek and eye. "An... Angel?..." he muttered. "Don't worry... She wasn't killed by the Red Death..." Alice said as she tried to scan Angel. "But it will take some time to revive her; the Darkness is too dense here..." Anger and rage built up in Logan, and his eyes flared with black and purple Void fire. He used his staff and pushed himself to his feet. Merlin scanned him and healed him to full health. "Where is Daggr now?" "Still on the third floor," Merlin replied. "Good..." Logan conjured a portal in front of him, then drew his sidearm before stepping through. Daggr turned away from the shattered window, but jumped slightly when he saw Logan standing behind him. Void fire and black smoke engulfed the warlock, making him appear just as intimidating as the gore and spike covered titan. Daggr quickly raised the Red Death up, but Logan slapped it to the side with his staff before he was shot. The warlock, then, raised his sidearm, but the titan crushed the barrel of the gun. Now, both Guardians were in a power struggle against each other. Daggr grabbed Logan's helmet, then pinned him against a wall. Logan placed his feet on the wall, then pushed back against the titan. The monster gripped tighter on Logan's helmet, then threw him down the hall. The warlock tumbled a couple of times before jumping back to his feet. When he looked up, Daggr charged him and pierced Logan with the several three inch diameter spikes on his pauldron. Logan's eyes grew wide and he felt his body go numb. Daggr peeled the warlock off of the wall like tape, then threw him to the ground. Logan tried to get to his hands and knees, but too many bones and ligaments were practically destroyed. The titan raised up the pulse rifle, aiming the bayonet at the man's spine. Just as Daggr started to plunge the blade into Logan, Angel tackled him through a wall into another room. Angel sat up, then began brutally punching the titan. She even broke off one of the Vex monster's hobgoblin horn. Even from the prone position Daggr was, he headbutted Angel and caused her to tumble backwards. The titan reached for the Red Death and trained the skull and crossed bones sights on the stunned Guardian. Just as he went to shoot, Daggr was force pushed through the outer wall of the building, causing him to fall. Angel spun around to see Logan, still riddled with massive wounds, standing at the hole in the wall. The warlock hunched over, cringing in sheer pain, then fell back onto the floor. "Did he shoot you?..." Logan asked as Angel slid over to him. Angel looked at her arm and saw where a bullet grazed her; she already felt slightly weakened. Alice scanned it but could not heal the wound right away. Angel swallowed her fear, then turned back to Logan. "No. He missed me..." Screams and gunfire echoed in the Guardians' heads. Merlin quickly healed Logan again and the two walked to the hole in the building. Daggr just pulled the bayonet from the body of an Exo civilian. Light seemed to wash over him as his injuries were healed. The beast turned back to Angel and Logan. "D***it!" Logan shouted as he clenched his fists. He floated down to ground level, and Angel just dropped down beside him. Logan stared at the exo frame sparking with electricity. What were the chances it would become a Guardian? "You're going to regret that..." Logan said as Void energy swirled around his hands. Daggr ran at the Guardians with newfound rage. He thrust the Red Death forward, but Logan force pushed it to the side. Angel punched the titan in his metallic ribs and Logan hit him across the face with his staff. The monster grabbed the warlock by his arm, spun him around and threw him into Angel. Daggr aimed his weapon at the two Guardians, but Axion, Logan's pet, flew in the way of the bullets. The condensed Void Light disipated and was sucked into the titan. "Axion!" Logan yelled as he force pushed Daggr through the hull of a bus. The warlock, glowing with Void energy, helped Angel up and marched toward the monstrosity. Daggr stepped out of the bus, then aimed the gun at a crowd of bystanders in the distance. Angel cast a small Ward of Dawn around a person being targeted, and saved them from the Red Death. Daggr turned to the Guardians and growled. "Logan, give me a portal..." Angel said to the warlock. Logan did not hesitate; he just conjured a Void gate and let Angel run into it. "Just you and me now," Logan said to Daggr. He ran forward, shoved his staff into a pothole in the road, then vaulted over a car. Logan kicked the titan to the ground, then began punching him repeatedly. Logan pulled back his arm to force push Daggr's head into the ground, but the Vex-human creature raised up Red Death and shot his right shoulder. The warlock fell back, holding his bad arm, but Daggr grabbed him by his throat and began squeezing the life from his body; Daggr already felt stronger by the influx of Light. Merlin flew up, waving his wand around in the titan's face. The beast started swatting at him like he was an annoying insect, then hit his hat off. Logan watched as the wizard hat fell through a drain in the road. "You f-ed up now..." he struggled to say. Merlin looked back to Daggr and expanded three times his normal size. The eight pieces of his shell became spinning projectiles he launched at the titan. "NO ONE TOUCHES THE HAT!!" He screamed as he broke off parts of Daggr's armor, and caused blood and radiolaria to drip from him. Daggr tried to swat Merlin away, but it was no use. Logan dropped to the ground and watched with amusement. [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/231807598/0/0]CONTINUE TO PART 2[/url]
