The Flame of Despair

The Gate Lord

July 23rd

Ryan flew his ship farther from Earth only to go back to Venus, "Eclipse, Sonar, are you still following?"
Eclipse ship trailed Ryan while Sonar struggled to keep up.
Eclipse gripped the ships accelerator, "Right behind you Red."
Sonar laughed silently, "okay what's with the name?"
Ryan sighed, "I don't know, He started that when I first met up with him."
Eclipse laughed, "Yeah, he stuck out like a sore thumb on the moon. Luckily I took him in my ship and brought him home.
Sonar rotated her ship to pass Eclipse's ship, " You still didn't thank me for bringing you back to Mars to pick up you're ship."
Eclipse's came to an end, "Sorry about that. It seems that I left my manners on the Moon."
Ryan guided them closer to Venus, "Sonar, if you could create portals to go to planets, then why did you ask Cayde for you're own ship?"
Sonar was silent for a bit, "I miss flying. My dad use to bring me on delivery runs. I always thought flying was cool." She gripped a bars tightly causing her ship to spin around Ryan's.
Ryan turned towards sense giving him a small nod.
Sense flew closer to him, "Thanks for the warning."
Ryan slammed his two bars forwards sending his ship flying in a blur.
Sonar screamed in excitement, "Badass!" She mimicked Ryan causing Eclipse to do the same.

Ryan landed his ship on an open field. His team did as he did.
Ryan walked to the back of his ship to a room filled with locked shelves. He placed his hand on one of the scanners which made the shelf to unfold. He grabbed six boxes with primary ammo then placed them on the table next to him. Ryan walked over towards the far side of the room. He unlocked the long container which revealed a white and red sniper rifle. A note wad tied to it.

Your action are greatly appreciated by the New Monachy. Hunt down those who apose you, and remember guardian, Light shines at its brightest when its surroundings are at their darkest hour.

Ryan grabbed four boxes of rifle ammo and placed it next to the primary ammo. He loaded his Suros then placed on his back, "Sense what's the mission." Ryan tossed his rifle strap over his shoulder.
Sense hovered closer to Ryan, "A Vex GateLord is roaming around. If we get his eye then we can deliver it to Cayde."
Ryan smiled, "Hear that guys, Easy Paycheck."
Sense narrowed his eyes at Ryan, "You have no idea what you're getting yourself into."
Ryan shrugged then walked out of his ship. Sonar and Eclipse were already out of their ship.
Sonar did a small twirl. Her cape followed her. She was equipped with her gold handcannon along with a fusion rifle that was hidden by her hoodlike cape, "Feast you're eyes boys, this is what a true badass looks like."
Ryan smiled in his helmet.
Eclipse stood up from a big rock that he rested on. His Rocket launcher was placed on his back while he held his Autorifle, "I'm ready when you are."
Ryan gave a nod.
Cayde's voice echoed in everyone communicators, "Alright guys, let's do a checklist before heading out. Ryan do you have the rifle that we sent you."
Ryan lift up his rifle with one hand, "yup, and I brought reserve ammo."
Cayde clapped, "Good, okay now Sonar do you have your fusion rifle?"
She smiled, "yes sir."
Eclipse spoke before Cayde could say anything, "I'm ready to kickass."
Cayde paused, "so you have the R.P.G along with Ammo, right?"
Eclipse paused then sighed, "Yes, I have it. I have everything I need to survive."
Cayde laughed, "Except for a plan. That's why Ryan is the leader." Cayde laughed quietly, "You remind me of myself Ryan."
Ryan smiled, he was glad that his visor wasn't see through, but his body language said it all. Ryan stood up tall as he walked closer to his team.
Cayde cleared his throat, " Pull out your sparrows and get a move on. Oh and Ryan, sorry for the defective sparrow. It should work now."
As a team. the sparrows spawned under their bodies. They stretched across their bike like ship.
Ryan twisted the accelerator slightly. His bike hummed with each twist.
Cayde sent a map into each member's helmet, "Your target is located in the Endless steps."
They took off leaving a small trail of energy behind them. Sonar jumped her sparrow over Ryan.
Ryan watched her as she landed, "I like your style."
Sonar smiled and shot in front of Ryan.
Ryan turned towards Eclipse. They gave each other a nod. They both shot forward chasing after sonar.
Sonar taunted them by moving her sparrow left to right, "Keep up boys."
Ryan listened to her soft voice through his helmet which made him shiver.
