Winter Hollow: A destiny fan story

Chapter 3: Arrival,

3rd person POV:

Variks looks at the monitor where it shows the broadcast darja made,
Variks makes some insect noises and presses a few buttons that lead to the broadcast being sent straight to zavala,
"Zavala, Variks thinks that darja is in trouble, send help quick, he doesnt have much time," variks says to the recording monitor as he sends it to zavala,

--meanwhile--
The stranger looks over the broadcast and the coordinates, sent by the wounded guardian,
See picks up her pulserifle and makes her way to her sparrow, she punches in the cords into her sparrow and is on her way to darja,

--Sky POV--

Me and Annica arive into zavala's office,

"Ah Sky, this must be the new guardian you told me about," he says to me in a regular tone of voice,
Annica grabs her arm in embaracment,
"Any who, i assume you both know why we're here as of right now," he looks at us both,
"Umm because of... Darja..?" Annica says quietly,
"Well other than darja i'd assume no commander," i say to him,
"Well yes because of darja, the last i saw him, he was on earth on his way back, but you said he fell of his ship and you couldnt find him, and then a hour ago, i get contact from variks saying that darja is in trouble and doesnt have much time, so im sending the two of you to europa, variks will fill you in sky, Annica, i want you to visit banshe and then ammanda," zavala says in a modetone voice,
Annica nods and heads off imeditaly, i get ready to head off as well, but zavala stops me and tells me,
"Sky, i want you to take Annica with you, Europa is a dangerous place,"
I nod and get ready,

--an hour later--

I wait for annica to arive in the hanger, i have mine, darja's and her new ship ready,

"Hey sky, what do you think?" She ask me,
She has a purple/silver color pallet on her armour,
"You look good, now lets get going," i tell her,

Our ghost transmate us into our ships and we get going to Europe, not to long variks cuts in,

"Darja, was wounded, last time variks checked, he sent coordinates to his position, hurry, you must, for variks thinks he doesnt have much time left..." he says with a wheeze and some insect noises, as we apear the orbit of europa,
"Wooah, thats europa!!" Annica says with wonder,

"Yeah, a moon corrupted of darkness, a moon that should never be open to guardians in my opinion," i say to her with aggitation,

"Do you..... Sky what is the darkness?" She asked with confusion,

"The darkness is a evil being, that shouldnt be used, i dispise it with every gear in my body," i tell her,
"Mhm... so no wonder why darja's on trouble, he might become apart of it," she said with worry,
"Lock and load, yall, this is gonna get messy," Echo said to us as we land on the frozen wastelands known as Europa,

"Okay Echo, can you set a way point on those cords?" I ask my ghost,
"Umm Yeah Give me a minute, I did a region wide scan of the cord to get a pinpoint location, Annica im sharing it to your ghost as well," Echo says with a modetone voice,

"Okay Annica, do you know how to ride a sparrow?" Igyu ask her with slite concern as i hop on my sparrow,
"Well you can ride with me till we can get back," i say to her with a smile,
She nods and gets on the back of my sparrow and we're off,
Its not long till we arive at a building with a raido tower with the door, blasted open, We hop off the sparrow, i pullout my shotgun, felwinter's lie and hold my self to the right of the intrence, annica pulls out her new handcannon, the sunshot, as she stands behind me,
"I'll go first, got it?" I ask her quietly,
She nods and i move forward, i get my shotgun aimed and i get ready to pull the trigger, but to my suprise and worry, i see darja lying there, with pibb scaning his right leg which is practicly blown off,
"Holy sh-" i say out loud before i get shushed by a unfamiliar voice to my left, i look and i see a exo standing there, watching over him as pibb heals him,

I look again at darja and i notice hes currently powered off,

"He's powered off untell he's fully healed," she says quickly,

"Ah... do you know what happened,?" I ask her with worry,
"No i dont, but i know he'll be fine in a hour, so if you and your friend stand guard outside while me and pibb over here focas on fixing him," she says in a even more serious voice then what zavala can do, i think,

So me and annica sit outside in silence as darja gets repaired by the stranger and pibb,

--a hour passes--
--Darja POV--
I slowly blink my eyes open as i power up again,
"Oh thank the light your awake darja!" Pibb says with excitment,
"Im glad to see you awake darja, but i have a task for you and your two friends outside," Elsie says to me,

"Umm okay, give me minute to refresh my memory real quick," i tell her,

"Wait is Darja awake?" Annica says as she pokes her head into the open doorway,
"By the light he is!" Sky says happily,

"Um when did...yall.. know what aint gonna ask, dont care, im just glad yall are here, so.. stranger, whats your task," i ask her in a cheerful voice
"Well keep your excitment in, because your gonna have to go into a fallen camp to gather information on the house of darkness, and its interaction with other, older fallen house remenates," she says to us
"Hmm so a hit and run?" I ask her,
"If your terms of hit and run is go in kill them all, steal all the stuff you can and get out, then be my guest, and have fun," she says as she walks out side and summons her sparrow and drives away,

"Hmm, so guys, shall we go prepair," i ask them as i get to my feet,
" well we're already prepared for a strike, its just that annica just doesn't know how to fly a ship or drive a sparrow," Sky says as he pats her on the back,

"Well... i dont really have a good explanation for that...," she says in a slightly embaraced tone,

"Well thats okay, i'll teacher that stuff,.. hold on do...you guys...hear that...?" I ask as i pull out the ace of spades,
"Yeah... sounds like.....fallen....." sky says as he pulls out his shotgun,
Annica looks around worriedly and pulls out her sunshot, and gets behind cover, i look outside and see three fallen skiffs the in the middle looks larger then the rest, i look to my left, and then the right, i sigh and i pull out my grenade, my stasis, grenade,
"Sky, we're gonna need to have a talk when this is over..." i say to him with a sigh, i get ready to toss my grenade when i see the siva infected Dregs, Vandals and a Captain Apear out of each ship, i toss my grenade at the group in the middle, freezing them inside the wall, i can feel sky and annica look at me with suprise, as i launch my self forward, tossing my stasis stars at the group to my right and then my left, i shoot a vandal in the head and see a flaming bullet whiz by, as i hear a dreg scream out as it and a few others explode behind me, i look at sky, and i can tell he's pissed, even through his helment,

"Guys,.... lets... get back to the stranger.... annica i'll teach you how to fly if you like.." i say to them with a sigh, she gets excited at it which warms my light and dark heart,... then i see sky which is still shocked at what i just did... then... i feel cold...again...
