The two ships arrived at the last city, where Infamy and Eli carried Mr Kay into a hospital to get checked. The other three guardians followed behind. Hospital service droids took Mr Kay, and placed him into a chamber, the chamber analyzed him, and healed him completely healed him. The group celebrated later that night on Mr Kay's recovery. The group traveled back to Mars, and back to Charlemagne's vault, where they sat, and drank. Hey told stories and laughed a lot. But then on a serious note, Shikari looked up, and said, "Where did you guys come from?" Everyone became silent. Titan looked up and said, "I guess I'll start."
TITAN:
"When I was a boy, I lived in a small town, outside of Old Russia. My parents knew the risks of living outside of the safe city, but they were not wealthy enough to live there. So one day, the a Fallen launched an invasion on the last city, and happened to fly overhead my village. They stopped at our village, and looted and destroyed it. I watched as a fallen Dreg ripped my parents to pieces. After the raid was over, I walked to the last city. It took me 4 days worth of walking. I drank from rivers, and killed animals for food. When I arrived at the city, I was put into an orphanage. A few years later, I signed up for the military. I trained relentlessly everyday, to prepare myself for battle. I graduated at the top of my class. On my graduation day, I went with a few friends to a party. I was extremely happy, and I ended up drinking too much. I drank myself into a coma. The Traveler saved me. I regained consciousness, and I realized I was an Awoken. I was shocked. I had no idea what to say. The doctor told me there was no undoing what the traveler did to me. So one day, I went to the Traveler. But no ordinary location. I went to a playground, that was directly underneath the Traveler. They say the playground is centered beneath the Traveler so it protects the children. As I walked in, I saw an Exo man, about 15 years old, just sitting there, talking to the Traveler, as if it was a close friend." Infamy glanced up. "So I walked over to a bench, and sat. I thought to myself on how grateful I was that the Traveler had saved me, in hopes it could hear me. But I eventually gave up on my foolish attempts. The Traveler has been dormant for years now." Infamy grunted. "I was soon called to war, me and my team were sent in as a recon team to investigate the house of devils inside of the walls of Old Russia. When my team walked into the dark walls, they were butchered. I was the only survivor. But I was scarred for life. I was too ashamed to return to the city. Due to the fact I was an expert soldier. I should have died with my squad. So I flew to Mars, and spent my days there. Practicing magic. After a while I gave up on the Traveler. It's just a stupid floating rock now."
Infamy stood up, and shouted, "IT IS NOT!" Everyone stared at him. Titan wouldn't look at him. He simply said, "How would you know?"
INFAMY:
"When I was a boy, my mother died in battle, she was a guardian, a Hunter to be exact. I was left with my father, who wanted nothing to do with me. All he wanted to do was party, make money, and sleep with lots of women. Everyday, he would drop me off at St Thomas Park, which is the same park that you said you walked into. I spent all my days there. Made lots of friends too. It was my 8th birthday, and I was dropped off at the park. My own father didn't even celebrate my birthday, no present, no cake, didn't even say happy birthday son! I went and told my friend Steve. He remembered my birthday. We went on the swings, and he game me his present, wrapped in a thin brown paper, just as I opened it, a long, white car drove up to the park. I looked at it suspiciously. Bullets flied out of the windows, killing everyone in the park, including me. The Traveler saved my life. It transformed me into an Exo to spare me from death. All my memories and past experiences were put into an Exo memory chip, and my body was transformed into machinery. I awoke to the horrid scene of all my friends lying dead in the floor, holes in their chests, and heads. I turned to see Steve lying on the ground, with at least 7 bullet holes all over his body. I was scarred. I went home, and my father was shocked at what I became. I beat him down, and told him I didn't need him anymore! I took half of his glimmer, and left. I sat in the park everyday and talked to the Traveler, in hopes it would respond to me. So one faithful day, I asked what I should do, I lost all my friends, and my father. The Traveler showed me a vision that I would be a guardian of the city. I jumped at this opportunity. I had a body transplant, they put my memory chip in a much taller, more mature Exo body. Soon after I returned to the Traveler, and sat there and tried one last time before leaving to sign up for the academy. I spoke to it, saying that I am thankful for it saving my life, and now I am to return the favor and serve you and protect you. And finally, after all this time. It answered. It told me to study it, and become a Warlock. With its power, I could protect myself, and it. I went into the military. On the day I graduated, I returned to the park. I said my farewells to the Traveler, and left for battle. I returned every year, to visit the Traveler. But one unfortunate year I was brought down into tears. I returned on my 28th birthday, to see. They destroyed the park I played in as a child, and spoke with the traveler in. They built a large building over it. I tried to speak to the traveler inside and outside of the building. I could not hear it, and it could not hear me. Out of rage, I abandoned the city, and traveled to Old Russia, where I destroyed the house of devils, and threw Rixis Archon slayer out. I took over the House of Devils, and ruled over Old Russia for a short time, until I felt guilt crawling over me like water flowing down a waterfall. I went undercover, and bumped into a small base, which was Cheezy's base. So, here I am. And that boy you talked about titan, that was me. Although I have not spoken or visited the Traveler again, I haven't given up on it. You don't know what it feels like to lose your only friend, the one who saved you, the one who gave your life meaning again."
The group fell silent...
