Maria had just finished eating dinner with her family. She went into her room to play some Destiny 2 on her PlayStation. It was 7:00. I have about 3 hours to play tonight, she thoight to herself.
She logged on to her Hunter and started doing some missions and strikes. At around 9:50, she decided that her next strike would be her last for the night. When she saw her ship flying towards Titan, she knew she would be doing Savathun's Song.
"I hate this strike", she muttered to herself," but I can't bail on these guys, so I'll deal with it".
Her Fireteam consisted of her (a Gunslinger Hunter), and two Titans, one Sunbreaker, one Striker. She left her microphone disconnected, because she didn't like talking to strangers, and she didn't want them to hear her yelling at the game.
While she was yelling at some Hive, her mother came in to ask if she was alright.
"I'm alright", Maria replied, "I'm just doing a strike and yelling at Hive".
"Oh, ok. Have fun", her mother replied before leaving the room. As Maria and her Fireteam defeated Savathun's Song, Maria yelled, "YEAH! IN YOUR FACE, HIVE!"
She collected her loot, looked at her results, and logged off for the night. She went to sleep, and had a dream that was very strange to her. She dreamed that she left her house with a pair of friendly Hive, a Knight and a Witch. They didn't tell her where they were going, just that she would be safe with them.
The next morning, something woke her, but she didn't see what. She only saw that she wasn't in her bed anymore. It didn't even look like she was on Earth.
"Where...where am I?"
