   The night passes. The newly united fireteam sleeps, and gains their energy for the next day to follow. Already experiencing a fight with the Darkness, and as they can tell, it is not easy prey. The plan is to search for this Agent of the Nine "Xur". Titan is the first destination, as Xur usually lays rest there to sell weapons and armor from the Nine.

   Morning arrives. The brightness from the sun rises. Residents can feel the warmth, the soothing comfort from their galaxy's star. An early morning dusk drifts across the city's wall and the platforms as people begin to wake.

   Xeno-3 is the first to wake up in his quarters located in the bazaar. Putting on his armor set up at the front door, he begins to make his way to the lobby door, exiting to meet his fireteam at the courtyard to get ready for the departure to Titan. He steps outside and takes a deep breath of the early morning dusk air that drifts in front of him, and makes his way to the center of the courtyard.

   While he is on his way, he spots Ion-5 at the gunsmith.

"Good morning Ion, how are you doing?"

"Doing pretty great, how about you?"

"Not bad, not bad, the dusk is great this morning. Excited for Titan?" Xeno asks.

"Yea! I remember going there to fight the hive, that was my main task. I know that planet very well." Ion replies.

"Well then make sure to guide us my friend."

"Will do!" Ion assures.

   The 2 guardians make their way to the courtyard. Awaiting the arrival of their fellow fireteam members.

   About 5 minutes pass and Luce arrives. And the same introduction proceeds.

"Good morning Luce!" Ion and Xeno greet.

"Good morning you two. Getting up early I see. Excited for Titan as much as I am?"

"You bet" Ion replies.

"I want to learn more about this "Nine organization. If they are known to be a resourceful ally to have against the Darkness. I am really curious to see what tricks they have up their sleeves." Xeno explains.

"I agree with you completely Xeno" Luce says.

   As the 3 discuss the plans for Titan. The other 3 fireteam members, Kaleka, Zara and Jasper all arrive after 10 minutes. Approaching from the direction of their quarters.

"You guys are a tad late" Ion chuckles.

"At least it wasn't half an hour" Zara replies.

"Alright, alright. Who needs to do things before we head off too Titan? It's not the biggest flight, it's not that far away but always gotta be prepared." Luce mentions.

"I am all good here" Xeno says.

  Zara, Jasper and Ion all say the same thing as Xeno, one after another.

"Yea hold on, let me just hit the gunsmith first, something i wanna add to my assault rifle." Kaleka mentions.

"By all means Kaleka go right ahead." Luce confirms.

   Kaleka makes her way to Banshee-44, discussing her new gun she acquired down in the city.

"I mean, it is a frightening gun I can tell you that much" Banshee informs.

"That's awesome. The mods in this are really to my liking, is there a name for it? Like is it known? Does it have a reputation?" Kaleka asks.

"Yea, people call it the "Sweet Business". It deals with enemies quickly and efficiently. It is definitely a personal favorite of mine." Banshee explains.
