Warframe The Lost Warrior

Chapter One- Grineer

A Grineer transport ship hovered above the snowy mountains of Pluto. It descended into a small camp. The Grineer general, Lahr, walked out and towards the large, open Void portal. Lahr wore heavy armor, painted a gray color. He also wore a mask, with tubes coming out of the sides and front. He smirked through his visor, seeing his Grineer soldiers pushing the Corpus they killed to reach the portal.

He took the stolen Void Key in his hand, and pressing it into a machine that would open the portal. A wave of golden energy shot into the glass like wall, and the image changed to that of an abandoned Orokin ship. He waved his hand, motioning for his Grineer Hellion soldiers to follow him.

He stopped in front of the portal, " Vor failed our queens. I won't." he said stepping through, and into the ship.

He looked around, seeing the faded colors of the white, stone like material, and the gold that now floated in the air. Lahr also began floating along with his soldiers soon after they entered the portal. He looked to his right, finding that the ship had a large hole in its side.

He looked upwards, spotting his prize. An ancient Tenno pod was barely secured in place, and was only attached with a few vines. Lahr pointed to the pod and his soldiers moved towards it. Using their jet-packs to maneuver around the debris, and get close enough to the pod. They got closer and went to open the pod, but it opened by itself.

Lahr floated in place as he watched the Hellion's grab the Tenno, bringing it to him. He looked down at the form. It wasn't like most of the Warframe's he had seen, it had a sleek form with a rounded helmet which had a flat back. Golden ribbons flowed from the top of its head and some reached to its back. Lahr noticed that golden spirals were inlaid into its shoulders, elbows, and along its legs. The frame was a black and gray color, with faint blue lines throughout the limbs.

One of the most interesting ones I've seen. Lahr noted, turning back to the Void portal and floating through with minor resistance. He slowly descended back to the ground. He then looked back to the Warframe, tilting his head to the side, pressing a button on his chest armor and projecting a display of many Warframe's.

He nodded, " Ah, good. This is the one." he said, coughing and adjusting one of the tubes in his mask. 

Turning back towards the portal, and exiting to find the Grineer Technician. A scrawny Grineer stood by the portal entrance with his hands in front of him. He wore a white, thin coat of sorts. He also had very little under-armor. He was without a mask and Lahr could see the smile on his hideous, sagging, pale flesh.

The Technician smiled nervously, "General Lahr! " he began, clearing his throat, "What an honor. I see that your mission has been completed? "

Lahr snarled, he hated that Grineer, Virse.

Virse stepped forward, " I'm glad it went well," he said, stuttering as he walked closer to the Warframe, " I just want you to know, the Queen won't be happy if—"

Lahr pushed him out of the way, making the Technician stumble. Lahr then continued on to the transport ship that brought him there. He would go to a larger orbital base that could contain the Warframe, and its power. The Technician followed him into the transport. It began to raise off of the ground, Lahr could feel the harsh winds pushing against ship.

He looked down towards the camp one more time, but it was almost impossible to see through the snow. They broke through the atmosphere, and spotted their orbital base. Once they docked, they stepped outside, dragging the frame behind them. Virse was still rubbing his hands together, an odd habit. They went into a room that had a table with a few metal restraints. They set the Warframe down, then locked it in place. Virse walked around the table chuckling. Lahr stared at him, guessing there was something else he wanted.

Virse looked up to Lahr as he crouched down beside the frame's head, " Do you know what this is? " he asked, rubbing the helmet, " This is a weapon like no other."

Lahr looked closely at its mysterious form. It looked more Orokin than any other frame he had encountered, " What exactly is this...thing? " he asked.

Virse scoffed, " If by thing, you mean, advanced war machine capable of destroying the entire Orokin empire." he said in a more serious tone, " By itself."

Lahr nodded in surprise, he didn't know much about Warframe's. Only that they were powerful foes. And they were the ones that destroyed the Orokin empire. Virse walked over to a control panel on the other side of the gray room. He pressed a few buttons, then pulled a lever. A spark flew out from the control panel, making Virse step back.

He grunted as he finished pulling down the lever, " But it has a problem." he said, stepping back and turning dials, " There's no Tenno that can use it."

Lahr coughed, shaking his head, he watched as Technician Virse put on a mask.

It muffled his voice as he spoke, " Stand back, unless you want to end up like those Corpus."

Lahr nodded, he didn't want to end up like the Corpus he saw when he arrived. They were turned into ash, then ripped apart by the snowy winds of Pluto. He stepped back as instructed. Watching Virse carefully. The thin Grineer Technician put what looked like sensors onto the Warframe. He then pressed a button, sending energy into the sensors. The Warframe jolted, even catching fire in some areas. The fires burned away at the dust and ash that seemed to cover it. Revealing a glossy black color with white symbols covering it.

Virse laughed, " This is what we needed to finish this war! " he said, " Behold, the ancient weapon of war. The final spark. Feras! "

Lahr looked at it with disgust. Only Virse, along with his team of Technician's, actually wanted to be involved with the Tenno and their Warframe's. But with this Warframe, Feras, Maybe the Tenno wouldn't be a problem for much longer. The screen inside the room filled with the image of the Worm. The Grineer Queen. Lahr and Virse quickly knelt.

The Worm spoke, " Did you get it? " she asked, looking at Lahr, then to Virse.

Virse nodded, " We did indeed." he motioned towards the frame, " What exactly will this do for us? " he asked.

Lahr looked over to him, so fighting the Tenno might not be the only thing it's used for. he thought.

The Queen glared at him for a moment, " Well, it is the source of great power," she began, " You're my Technician, so I'll tell you this."

Virse smirked, Lahr quickly turned his head, cursing. The Queen had never recognized the things Lahr had done for their empire. But her Technician, Virse, was treated as if he were the one that fought the Tenno.

The Queen yelled at a few Grineer workers, then turned back to Virse, " My sister is sick. Not dead." she said, " This weapon is the key. Is one of the original sources of—"

An explosion hit the ship. Lahr quickly stood, grabbing his weapon. He didn't hear what the Queen had said, but protecting the Warframe was his main objective.

Virse stood as well, smiling widely, " I understand my Queen, but I must return to my work." he noted, " We are also under attack it seems."
