"WE'RE PINNED DOWN HERE!"
What?
"Get them to the bunkers!"
It's too loud.
"The Cabal are everywhere! Caiatl! What's your status!?"
This wasn't how it was supposed to go...
"Zavala... It's grim. We have no chance of escape."
We ate the mountains...
"It has been an honor Commander Zavala."
We drank the seas...
"Caiatl!"
But we couldn't kill a god...
"FOR GLOR-"
What?
...
I can't hear anymore.
...
No I can hear, the comms just cut out.
...
I truly am alone now.
...
We failed.

"-dian."
...
"-ardian!"
...
"GUARDIAN!"
MY eyes shoot open to see the red blaring lights decorating the interior of my ship. I look around hastily seeing my helmet is still on. Oxygen levels within my vessel are still in the green. Wait scratch that, they're in the yellow. I floating shell moves in front of my face.
"Glad you're back guardian, almost thought I lost you."
"Ghost? What happened?"
The ghost sighed and gazed out into the empty void before us. I look out as I see nothing, I hear nothing.
"We lost Guardian... The witness wiped us out. We're all that's left."
My eyes went wide, have we truly lost? Did we not prepare enough? Did we mess up on our execution? Or was he just too powerful... Shit, we really have lost.
"Are there any lines open? Any comms we can latch onto?" I sit up in my seat flicking the switches to get the comm system funning. It was working, we were broadcasting and receiving.
"I've detected no open lines or any other broadcasts. I'm picking up feint signals that seem rather curious but it seems to be highly primitive." Ghost said as I looked out the shielding and into the void. I booted up the nav system.
"Run a scan, full spectrum, gamma scan, radiation scans, do it all. I want to know where the hell we are." I state seeing the Nav system almost unrecognisable. Where are we?
"The scans will take a few minutes." Ghost simply said as I check the vault on board my ship. I check in on inventory. Everything is there. That's good at least. I check up on the other systems. Thrusters are a bit screwed but nothing I can't get a quick fix on. I pop the hatch after a quick decompress as I take a swim out into the Inky blackness before seeing the damage to my ship.
"Could be worse..." I get to fixing the thrusters removing debris and relinking wires. It took me a bit but I finally got there. I did notice an odd shard that was embedded in my Hull. I removed it and placed it in a container. It didn't look like debris, more like a projectile but with a feint glow. I hopped back into my ship as Ghost was waiting for me.
