Calculon

20 Years Ago

It was a loud night in the Tower, Last City on Earth. A storm was raging right over Calculons house. He was sleeping on his bed, when an alarm rang out. He had only heard this alarm once because it was only tested every 10 years. The alarm was meant to warn civilians of an air raid or invasion. Calculon thought to himself, "It is probably just a misfire or a drill. Then he started hearing screams from a different area in the city. He ran outside to find tons of cabal dropships flying overhead and he then saw weird pods falling out of the sky. One of them slammed into a house, flattening it to the ground. The ball then disappeared and cabal flooded out of them shooting in all directions. Calculon started to run away from the cabal. He kept on hearing other cabal drop pods slamming into things. He saw his favorite ramen restaurant get crushed by one of the pods. He hoped that the owner got out in time. Calculon was then suddenly blown back into a wall and heard a deafening explosion. He opened his eyes and found cabal flowing out of a house that just got crushed. He then thought they were going to hill him. He then started hearing ships, not like the cabal dropships, flying overhead. He then saw a ship land really close to him and a guardian jumped out of the ship. The gaurdian then started running at the cabal, shooting rapidly. The guardian killed around 3 out of 7 cabal when he got to the rest. The guardian started killing them one by one, even by knife if neccesary. Before Calculon knew it, all of the cabal were dead. The gaurdian approached calculon and told him, "You will be safe, now." Calculon then asked him, "What is your name?" The guardian responded with, "My name is Cayde-6. Now get in my ship so you can get to safety." Calculon then was taken to Cayde's ship and was told, "You are going to a refugee camp outside of the city where you will be then taken to a different, more safer place." The ship started up and Calculon asked, "Your not coming?" Cayde explained, "I've got more city to save." The ship then started to take off and Calculon saw Cayde vanish.
