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...
(A/n this story is very shot but that's only because the last one was so long, still, I hope you enjoy it, also here is a hint, this chapter has a connection to another book. Can you find it?)

3rd Pov
Raven: *Guilty* I'm sorry, I, we were drunk and we were not thinking right...I just want you to know that it didn't mean anything, and we did nothing again after that it was nothing, but I won't try to use that as an excuse.
Gunslinger: ...
Raven: please say something.
Cayde: I'm sorry I made you feel like you needed Tai in the first place, but it still...
Raven: What is it?
Cayde: I already wasn't in the best place mentally, so, and seeing you and Tai, that well that just pushed me over the edge. I felt *sigh* how do I put it. When I was in Vacuo after getting expelled I thought that my life as I knew it was over, that I could never have the family I wanted was forever out of my reach, however, the only thing that kept that dream alive was that there might be a small chance that you would be waiting for me. Summer reignited that hope, and seeing you with my best friend, it was like you took that hope away.
Raven: If the Gods somehow gave me a second chance at that moment, I would turn Tai away.
Cayde: The Gods stopped caring about us a long time ago.
Raven: I understand why you are upset, those three years were the best I had too, and I just threw them away, can you ever forgive me?
Cayde: I don't know if I can, but I would like to try.
They both start tearing up.
Raven: I'd like that.
Cayde: Yeah well, alright then let's wake Mora up, then we can walk to Katori, then we can take the train all the way to Mistral.
Raven: sounds like a plan.
Cayde: ...
Raven: ...
Cayde: *Nervous* Hey after all this is over you want to maybe get dinner, and see what happens?
She starts crying tears of joy now.
Raven: Yes.
Cayde: Alright, uh I'll go check out, could you get Mora up, please.
Raven: Of course.
Cayde: Thank you.
Cayde walks to the front office of the INN, and is greeted by the INN Keeper.
INN Keeper: You checking out sir?
Cayde: Yeah.
INN Keeper: Alright, give me a second.
He times away on his old computer.
INN Keeper: This might take a while, do you want to check out the gift shop before you go.
Cayde: Nah I'm good.
INN Keeper: You sure, you might find something for your daughter.
Cayde: She's not my...*Sigh, never mind. I'll go take a look.
He walks ten feet to the gift shop that is filled with cheap inexpensive stuff. But he does see something that catches his eye.
Timeskip
10:00 AM
Cayde, Mora, and Raven are all outside the INN.
Mora: *Yawn* Do we have to go now?
He kneels down to her eye level.
Cayde: Yes I'm sorry, but we already lingered here too long.
Mora: Aw, but I-I'm scared and I like it here I don't want to leave.
Cayde: Hey, I know what will make you feel better.
He hands her a stuffed Greyhound

She takes it.
Mora: Aw, it's a cute little puppy.
Cayde: It's a Greyhound these are a very famous breed of dog back where I am from, they represent strength and courage. So as long as you keep it close it will help you be brave as well.
Mora: Thank you so much I love him!
She smiles and hugs the greyhound tightly.
This made Cayde happy, which in turn made raven happy.
Cayde: No problem kid, now shall we go.
He stands up and offers his hand out for her to hold and she takes it and Raven takes the other one. And they walk as if they were a small family of three.
Meanwhile, thousands of miles away Manticore is scanning all of the transactions made in the last few days in Atlas to find his bounty. Until he finds a hotel transaction in a small town with a very little population.
