Cayde's Modified Atlas Cargoship: 'Blackbird'
Vacuo Airspace
3rd Pov
Cayde is flying across the sky, he was looking at the beautiful sky that seemed to have no end. It was the only place he felt truly felt free. Of course, he was not the only bounty hunter in the sky, Vacuo was notorious for housing tons of repossessed Atlas ships and prototypes. Some fly with grace, while others rattle like old lawnmowers. The Blackbird was a fine ship even though she was not much to look at she was durable and reliable, and that was all that mattered for him.
*Ring* *Ring*
He then gets a call from his ship's communications terminal, that reads Summer Calling.
Upon seeing who is calling, he answers.
Cayde: Hey Sum Sum.
Summer was the only one from his past that Cayde still spoke to, nobody could ever turn away summers kindness, but still, they hardly speak.
Summer: HI CAYDE! How have you been doing it's been so long since we last spoke.
Cayde: Two years give or take.
Summer: How have you been?
Cayde: Living, how about you?
Summer: I've been great the team has been, great.
Cayde: So STRQ is still together?
Summer: Yeah, you should come to visit sometime, everyone misses you.
Cayde: Sum, did you call me because you wanted me to visit because I am sure you already know the answer.
Summer: Come on please it's been five years, and Raven needs to talk to you.
Cayde: If she really 'needs' to talk to me tell her to do it herself, now if you don't mind I have a job to finish.
Summer: Don't you dare hang up on...
*Beep*
He hung up
He then turns the ship to the estate and parks on his grassy lawn as a show of power and puts Gravely's severed figures on the collector's desk.
Collecter: You killed him, disappointing, never the less, go get the man his money.
Butler: Right away sir.
He hands Cayde a briefcase which he takes.
Collecter: It has been a pleasure doing business with you.
Gunslinger: I'll see you around.
Collector: 'Till we meet again.
Cayde leaves the estate and hops back aboard his ship and flies it to a ship docking bay where other outlaw ships are parked. Pays the usual parking toll, and walks to his apartment. Where he is greeted by his landlord and Cayde pays the man his rent money with the new payday and then makes his way to his room.
Cayde's Apartment 127
He enters his small apartment, and goes over to his workbench and takes off his helmet, revealing his scraggly blonde hair and ocean blue eyes. And he is about to change into his casual clothes when he hears, a portal open behind him. He doesn't bother to turn around as he knows who it is.
Cayde: Supprising.
Raven: What's surprising?
He turns around.
Cayde: That you can still summon a portal to my location, I thought that it only worked with people you're emotionally bonded with.
Raven: I could never sever the bond that I have with you. Why would you even think that?
Cayde: Fifteen years without so much as a hello, might have had something to do with that.
Raven: I...I'm sorry you're right, I just thought that you wouldn't...
Cayde: Why are you here Raven?
He takes a seat on a chair while she sits on his bed.
Raven: I...I need your help.
Cayde: You think you can come up here after all this time, after all, that's happened and ask for my help?
Raven: I...I know it's not fair, but I don't have anyone else to turn to.
Cayde: What about Tai?
Raven: Where not together anymore.
Cayde was honestly taken aback by this.
Cayde: Seriously, when did that happen?
Raven: Three years ago, I never really loved him.
Cayde: How is Tai doing?
Raven: Pretty good actually he is with Summer now.
Cayde: She finally got up the nerve to ask him out, heh, I knew she could do it.
Raven: Yeah, they are both living a quiet life now and talking about starting a family, so I can't ask them to help me with my family issues.
Cayde: Summer obviously knows since she called me.
Raven: I told her I needed to speak to you, I didn't tell her why.
Cayde: Why didn't you just call?
Raven: Because I was scared about talking to you again, but she talked me into coming to see you personally.
Cayde: I'm kinda glad she did, despite everything it is really good to see you again.
Raven: *Blushes* Y...you to.
For one second both of them feel like they are back at highschool, getting all flustered, and not knowing what to say, but then Cayde remembers what she said earlier.
Cayde: Family issues...Oh no, what has Qrow gotten himself into this time?
Raven: Our father wants him to take control of the tribe, and he has him in custody, he plans on torture him until he agrees to be his successor.
Cayde: Qrow will never break, he is too stubborn.
Raven: Which is why he will die at our father's hands.
Cayde: Unless we stop him, or kill him.
Raven: If it comes down to that, I don't know I can do it, so if...
Cayde: I understand Raven. Well, the flight to Mistral is going to take us a few hours.
He puts on his helmet and gets ready to leave.
Raven: Hey wait.
He stops and turns to Raven
Raven: I have really missed you Cayde.
Cayde: *Sigh* I would be lying if I said that I didn't feel the same way.
Raven: Then maybe after this is over, we can talk about reconciliation?
Cayde: You really hurt me Raven, and after not hearing from you for so long.
Raven: I know I have made mistakes but I miss...I miss us.
Cayde: Lets... let's go get Qrow back first...then we'll talk, okay?
Raven: *Nods* Okay.
