--Pibb POV--
I appear into view, as darja dies again, and i see annica in distress,
"Annica you do know that hes-" she cuts me off by wailing,
"HES DEAD! DALLAS'S GHOST IS DEAD!!! AND DALLAS IS PROBALY DEAD AS WELL!!!"
"annica, he's...." i trail off,
"OH DARJA WHAT WILL I DO WITH OUT YOU!?" she says in a mechanical teary voice, i sigh and float away as Sky rushes past me to calm her down, i start to resurrect my guardian, as i turn into a floaring orb of light, the outline of Dajra apears and then i see his old body disapear and annica wail even louder, then i see darja land onto his feet, i disapear into him again,

--Darja POV--
I land on my feet after being resurrected by pibb, i look over to annica and sky who is trying to calm annica but is failing, he looks over my way with a look in his eyes that says,
'Get your soon to be dead ass over here and calm her down' which i do, sky gets up to go check on therma and dallas, as i tap her on the shoulder, she turns her head and looks at me and says, "bu-but i thought that you were..?" She says as she suddenly gives me a hug,
"YOU OR ANYONE ELSE BETTER NOT DIE AGAIN!!" She says wailing onto me at this point, i hug her back and respond with,
"Annica its okay if we die, we have our ghost who can resurrect us, the only time we cant be resurrected by the ghost is if they died, or if we are in a area shrouded with darkness, and you know im not gonna die that easily.. because who would take care of you and sky half the time?" I say to her with a chuckle,
"Well... dont fucking die again!!!" She says with a laugh, "we should check up on Dallas now," say as i put my hand on her shoulder,
"Young wolf, do you copy?" Lord Saladin says over the comms,
"Yes Saladin I do, what do you need?" I say back,
"Sky, told me about the situation in the cozmodrome, and about Dallas, they are retreating to the tower, I am on the way, hold tight!" He says with eagerness,
"good to hear, cya soon!" I say back with joy in my voice,
"Who was that?" Annica ask,
"That was Lord Saladin, a old friend of mine and sky's," i say with warmth,
"Hey, guys... we are no longer alone..." igyu speaks with worry,
"Yeah... Im picking up large enemy movement from the right and below us?" Pibb says with a confused tone,
I pull out my ace, and annica pulls our her sunshot, the next thing we hear is a mechanical screech not to far from here,
"What the hell was that!?" Annica says with worry, and i responf with,
"I dont know, but we should find some where, high, and fast," she nods as we start to look for high ground, i start to hear things clawing out of the ground, i turn around to see hive similar to the ones i blew to hell earlier, i look around for a high up area and i see a building, just tall enough for us to triple jump up to, i tell annica to jump to the building i saw as i give her covering fire, i turn around and open fire on three thralls and a acolyte, i see two knights burst out of a wall, and one climb out of the ground with a few more thralls, i know theres way to many for me to keep track of, so i hollar to annica to cover me while i jump up to her, as i make my first jump, i feel something grab my foot from below, causing me to fall onto the ground with a grunt, i look to see what grabed me, and i see the ugly face of a knight infested with SIVA, i feel its grip tighten, starting to crush my leg, i ready my aim on its face, and i pull the trigger leaving a hole bigger then the toothy grin it gave to me, i wiggle my mangled leg free, and i manage to get to my feet, and then, i hear thw mechanical screech from before, i turn around to see a building collapse as a giant SIVA infested ogre comes tumbling out with two wizards one on each side, it roars again, and starts to shoot its eye beam at me, i quickly jump up to annica, barley dodging its fatal lazer,
"Well shit, we're stuck inbetween a rock and a very hard place!" I say to annica with pain in my voice,
"Well atleast we arnt dead!" She says with a small anxious laugh,
"ANY GUARDIAN ON ANY LINE, ME AND A FELLOW HUNTER ARE PINED BY HIVE IN THE COZMODROME, SOMEWHERE BEHIND THE QUARITINED ZONE! SOMEONE PLEASE HURRY!" I say into the comms, hoping someone will have heard that, the hear more hive screeching around us, i pull out a stasis shard and hand it to annica,
"Use this by tossing it at a enemys feet, im going to provide some covering fire, i'll try to kill that ogre, i'll follow you when or if i can, try to escape by using your ship, got it?" I say to her with sternness in my voice, not giving her enough time to think i hop over the cover protecting us from the ogre, and i cast, both a golden gun, and stasis, at the same time, creating a dangerous combo of dark and light, and with my stasis charged golden gun, i shoot the ogre sqaur in the face, creating a stasis and solar explosion, making a shockwave far enough to send me flying through the building behind me, i try to open my mouth to speak, but no words come out, only mechanial gurgles and coughs, so i try to get up to my feet, i cant even feel my mangled leg any more, infact i can hardly feel anything right now, i slowly make my way out of the hole i made, to see that everything either, froze or burnt to a crisp, i start to make my way to the opening, but before i know it, i get tackled by a thrall, it gets a few nasty hits on my face before i turn it to dust with a shot to its guts, i put my hand over where the thrall clawed at, and i feel a large claw mark where a eye used to be which would explain why i cant see out of it anymore,
"Dajra... your not looking good, your in a critical state, im broadcasting a SOS to any and everynear by guardians..." pibb says with worry,
"Young wolf! I have your beacon and i have your position in my sights im about to land hold on for a bit longer!" Saladin says over the local comms i manage to lean up enough to see even more thralls come out of the ground, i weakly get to my feet, and i aim my ace torwards a knight with a mace coming out of the ground and now making his way for me, bashing thralls out of his way, i sigh and close my eye, bracing for one hell'va impact, but instead i hear a shotgun blast, and something hit the floor, i open my eye to see lord saladin with a shotgun in one hand and his axe in the other,
"Young wolf, we need to leave, now," saladin says as he hurrys over to me, as he puts away his shotgun, this young guardian here, lead me to you, you should follow her to safety, i'll cover you, My temple is closest so head there, i'll send you the cords when we're all safe!" Saladin says as he starts to chop the siva infested hive to pieces, i look over to see annica as she grabs my hand and starts to drag me with her, i start to absent mindedly follow her to a area where we can get to our ships, i notice that blackness is fading in and out, but not before pibb teleports me into my ship, but the next thing i see, is darkness closing in, yet again.....
