Crow x Exo OC (fem)
A crippling blow has struck the Guardians of the Last City. One of their own, their beloved Vanguard Cayde-6 was slain by the ruthless Awoken Prince himself, Uldren Sov. For Knoxx-2 this was more than a simple case of eliminating a dangerous target. This was personal.
Taking a life was something she had done countless times to the enemies of humanity.
However, taking a life when fuelled by the unquenchable thirst for revenge is a much sweeter end.
It's been 3 years since that forsaken day, and the Traveller has granted new life. It brought the Prince of the Awoken, a killer back to stare down the barrel of her gun once more. For all she knew, people never really change. Will she pull the trigger and kill an innocent who wore the face of her nightmares?
After all, the line between Light and Dark is so very thin.

Through Time and Light [Cayde-6 Fanfiction]
The story follows Olivia ("Liv"), a dedicated Destiny 2 player who feels an unspoken connection with Cayde-6, the charming, rogue-ish Hunter Vanguard. After one particularly long night of playing and rewatching the cinematic where Cayde meets his tragic end, Liv falls asleep wishing she could change his fate. When she wakes up, she finds herself no longer in her bedroom but in the Tower of the Last City, with the same Guardian armor she chose in the game. Realizing she's now in the Destiny 2 universe, Liv is overwhelmed but soon determined to find Cayde-6. Along the way, she discovers she's been granted the powers of a Guardian, but there's more to her sudden arrival. She has a special connection to the Traveler, which has sent her on a mission: to stop the cataclysmic events that lead to Cayde's death. As Liv fights alongside Cayde, she finds herself falling for him in ways she never thought possible, even though she knows his tragic fate looms over them. Torn between her growing feelings and the pressure of preventing the inevitable, Liv must navigate this universe, face powerful enemies, and defy time itself to rewrite Cayde's fate. The closer they grow, the harder the battles become, not just with the enemies they face but within herself. Can she save him without unraveling the very fabric of the universe? Or will her love lead to consequences far worse than what she sought to prevent?Complete
Legends Never Die
"You're not brave, you've merely forgotten the fear of death...Allow me to reacquaint you." The words wouldn't leave her head... Ghaul's mocking tone, the way he looked down at her like she was nothing but an ant beneath his boot with his eyes narrowed and stance radiating a smug triumph that made the Young Wolf grit her teeth and clench her jaw even days after the fact. His words though wasn't what caused her anger, even if they did send a pang of, something through her body. She ignored that (like she always did) and focused on the matter at hand for now, (for her feelings didn't matter; they never would.) Ghaul had invaded her home, the home of her people and captured the Traveler right from under their noses. He slaughtered her people, killed all who hadn't evacuated and he not once cared for the amount of innocent lives he took. The blood of men, women and children who just wanted to live in peace... He had killed all who stood in his way, and The Guardian hadn't been able to stop him from doing so... She had failed...she was right there before him and had fallen down on her knees, too exhausted to get back up and fight without her Light. (She was Weak...a failure...a coward...) The Titan could still feel the phantom pain coursing through her body in the aftermath of the attack, when she had woken up barely alive without her powers back in the city but now, sitting around her small camp as she finally took a break after days of walking that did nothing but fuel her anger. She'd find a way to stop the Red Legion, find a way to kill Ghaul with or without the Light even if it was the last thing she did. -OR: The Red War begins; The Young Wolf is pissed, never before has she failed like this, failed to protect her people but the Guardian is willing to do whatever it takes to make things right, even at the expense of her own health.Complete

Though NOT a guardian, Y/N crafts and enhances gear with unwavering dedication, dazzling flair, and unrivaled beauty. All taught to him by Eva Levante, an elder who is responsible for all the wonderful techniques he uses now. However, Y/N has a problem of his own, a fight against his own darkness if you will, whilst intertwining with these Guardians in ways he never imagined. Y/N has been battling with cancer, incurable under most circumstances, and is now reaching his final shape. The fireteam of guardians and Y/N eventually discover that even in the face of death, love and friendship can blossom.

A Legend Reborn.
The Golden Age- When the Traveler arrived, a time of peace, prosperity, and infinite possibility sprouted from Earth. Mankind had launched hundreds- if not, thousands- of journeys across the system, connecting Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, even Mercury into an increasingly large web of life and technology. Fast forward to the end of the Golden Age- The Collapse and the Dark Age- alien races surge forth from outside the system- the Eliksni, the Hive, The Cabal, The Vex- all coming for the Traveler. He fought them all, sending his Light, his Power out, crushing the opposition. Then, He was crippled, retreating to a small town. Fast forward to the beginning of our age- The City Age- With His dying breath, The Traveler created the Ghost- small machines that can revive those capable of wielding the Light- His Power- and fight the Darkness. The Hunters scout out terrain, reclaim Dead Zones, and are the eyes and ears of the City- the Warlocks research the secrets of the fundamental ideas of the Darkness, predict future events, and enthrall themselves in the workings of the Light to understand it and to find new ways to work it into the Guardians arsenal- and finally, the Titans, Defenders of the Last City, and the burning lights of hope in the shadows. Honor-driven. Leaders. Warriors. The Protectors of Humanity. Deeply intertwined in the history of the Last City. What happens when one is reborn and becomes one of the few able to wield the flame of hope as his own, to burn off the shackles of darkness that have been crushing humanity's will and hope to dust, What happens when he experiences so much tragedy, so much pain, that he delves into the shadows? What happens, when he finally snaps? And what happens to his loved ones when they are forced to put him down? And what will his Legend become, if he himself threatens the safety of the Last City. --------------- Thanks go out to the wonderful girl that most would know as @ShadowPine for the Cover art.

The Last Flame
Christian looked down from the creature looming before him at the gun in his holster. Engraved on its side were the words, "Until the last flame dies and all words have been spoken" "It's time to draw guardian, one last time." The hunter looked up at his ghost then looked back down again, "Ya know, I always thought it was called 'The Last Word' because it ensured the wielder he'd get it, but I think I understand now... It's my Last Word." And with that, he put his hand on his holster and stared death in the face, without fear or hesitation. He glanced back at his ghost before it disappeared, "Then let's make it one hell of a draw."Complete![misconceptions and jokes (Cayde-6 x reader) [Completed ♠️]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/178163975-256-k969420.jpg)
