18 Years before Y/n became Spider-Man, there lived a grizzled bounty hunter named Cayde Solo, a Beacon dropout, and leader of team CYAN. During his school years, he fell in love with a woman named Raven. After Beacon, he became known as The Gunsli...
Cayde sitting on a rock and still keeping watch, while Mora sleeps, listening to the sounds of crickets and the wind.
Cayde: *Sigh* I guess now is a good time as any.
He gets up and walks out of the cave as not to wake Mora, he then accesses his HUD system and selects calls, and scrolls down a list of numbers.
Cayde: *Scrolling* I'm sure I still have it here somewhere.
He keeps scrolling until he finds a number belonging to Mr. O.
Cayde: There you are you son of a bitch.
He selects the number and connects it to his holo-puck for a vid-call.

He takes out the puck and it is blinking green light in the center meaning its running, the only question was will he pick up.
Cayde: Come on pick up.
It takes a little more time but eventually, it stops blinking and a small hologram of his old headmaster popped up.
Ozpin(Hologram): Mr. Solo!? It has been so long.
Cayde: Not nearly long enough.
Ozpin(Hologram): Look I know we didn't leave on the best of terms, but I am sure we can find some common ground.
Cayde: I'm not here to find 'common ground' Ozpin, I am here to ask about what you want with the girl.
Ozpin(Hologram): W...What do you mean?
Cayde: A four billion Lien bounty, for the safe delivery of a silver-eyed girl, I may not have been your smartest student, but I'm not stupid.
Ozpin(Hologram): *Sigh* Nothing gets by you does it?
Cayde: Putting a bounty on an eight year old girl, I never thought you whould stoop so low
Ozpin(Hologram): Look Mr. Solo that girl is very dangerous and she needs protection if you bring her to me I will make sure no harm will come to her.
Cayde: You mean until she has to die for your little war with Salem, like the last three Maidens who were supposed to be under your protection?
Ozpin(Hologram): That's not fair.
Cayde: I wasn't trying to be.
Ozpin(Hologram): Salem is going to be looking for your, you think she will be better off being on the run?
Cayde: Thats for her to decide.
Ozpin(Hologram): You didn't let Mr. Gravely decide when you shot him dead.
Cayde: He made his choices, and that is something she will loose if I turn her over to you.
Ozpin(Hologram): Look listen to...
*Beep*
He hung up on him
Cayde: I got to get her to Yuri, she'll know what do to.

Mid-Morning
Cayde and Mora continue to walk down the country roads that will eventually lead them to the 'back door' of Mazzie's Garage. Cayde was in front with his rifle ready just in case. Mora trailing close behind but was pretty quiet though.
Cayde: So Mora, what kind of things do you like?
Mora: Oh w...well I like airships.
Cayde: Really?
Mora: Y...Yeah, I...I would really like to fly one someday.
Cayde: You know my Mom was an Atlas cargo pilot.
Mora: R...Really...That is so cool!!
Cayde: She thought me when I was about your age, heh some moms get their kids bikes, mine gave me an Atlas Cargo ship.
Mora: *Shy* U...Uh...Mr. Solo...?
Cayde: Please call me Cayde.
Mora: *Shy* O...Uh...Sorry...Mr...Cayde...can...can you maybe...teach me how to fly sometime?
Cayde: *Smiles* Sure thing kid.
Mora: *GAAAASSSSP* OH REALLY THANK YOU!!!
Mora: Also, after we get to your ship, what happens next.
Cayde: Well we will fly to the Mistral Capital City, and go to the police station, I got a friend on the force. She will know what to do.
Mora: Oh OK, hey Mr. So..I mean Cayde
Cayde: Yeah?
Mora: Why are you helping me?
Cayde: Well, helping the innocent is what I been training three years for back at Beacon and I not going to leave you here by yourself.
Mora: Thank you, I really mean it.
Cayde: Your welcome kid.
Mora: Hey if you don't mind me asking, why did you leave Beacon?
Cayde: Well me and Oz...the headmaster and I had a bit of a disagreement.
Mora: Oh, what about?
Cayde: Well he saw the world one way and I saw it the other.
Mora: Oh sorry, but it wasn't all bad right?
Cayde: No not all bad, I enrolled with my best friend, I got one hell of a team watching my back, then I fell in love with an incredible woman.
Mora: Oh really that is so sweet, what's her name?
Cayde: Raven.
Mora: Raven, like the bird, thats a weird name.
Cayde: *Giggles* A little bit yes.
Mora: Did you guys participate in the Vytal Tournament, I always used to watch those old videotapes of the Vytal Tournament with my daddy.
Cayde: Yes and our team managed to get to the top eight singles matches but that was as far as we got.
Mora: What happened.
Cayde: Well Annable was the best fighter on our team so she was the most logical choice to send to the singles round, but as luck would have it, she had to go up against May Riley, the only one who was able to beat Anna in combat class. Anna put up a good fight but ended up getting bested by May. But despite the loss, we all had a good time.
Mora: Wow that sounds like fun, I wish I could go to a hunter academy!
She seems happy but her mood suddenly turns sorrowful.
Mora: But I probably won't be able to.
Cayde stops walking, turns around, and kneels down to Mora's eye level.
Cayde: Hey don't let anyone tell you what can and can't do, alright.
She smiles and nods her head.
Mora: OK thank you, you are a very nice person, Mr. Solo, oh I mean Cayde.
Cayde: Thanks kid, now let's get going.
They once again resume their walk to the docked Black Bird.
