'Now ain't that a sight.' thought a man to himself as he stared at a passing comet as his ship, accompanied by two others, flew through the blackness of space.

Calming sights such as the comet were a rarity in these days. The days when warriors of Light were constantly under siege by the forces and tools of the Darkness. When Guardian's protected the last vestige's of humanity that hid behind the walls of the Last City directly underneath the Traveler.

With everyday being spent fighting and just trying to survive, finding any semblance of calm was just so rare that it had to be savored if only for a few passing seconds.

Letting his gaze linger the man turned away from the beautiful sight and back towards his heading from the cockpit of his ship.

The man, when standing, was about six feet even and possessed a lean build like that of a runner that, save for his face, was covered in armor with a hooded cloak. The mans face was lightly tanned with the only blemish being a small scar on the right side of his cheek, his eyes were a dark brown much like his short spiky hair that fell to the nape of his neck. His armor was a complete set of Hunter class Iron Truage armor with the Omolon Meteor shader while next to him sat his helmet which was the Graviton Forfeit, which even now the ever moving purple faceplate was still in motion.

Just then his Ghost decided to appear, donned in it's Fire Victorious shell, as it then began to speak in a feminine voice filled with annoyance and a hint of impatience.

"You know Chase if you keep staring at passing comets we'll never reach the target. We're already behind schedule as is." The Ghost said to the now named Chase.

"Oh El what would I do without your guidance and amazing scheduling skills?" snarked Chase with a smirk

'I'd quit the chatter you two, readings say we're getting close to the target.' Spoke a female voice through the comms that Chase instantly recognized coming from the ship on his right that was an Iron Pendragon class, same as his own.

"I know Lexi but you know I can't help but appreciate a good passing comet." Chase said to the now named Liex who then appeared as a small holograph on his right.

Being only five inches tall as a hologram Chase still knew her height to really be a short five foot six, however her hourglass figure was still pleasantly displayed in her signature Fulminator class Warlock armor, the exception being her Aeon Soul gauntlets, with only her helmet missing. Her face was pretty with light blue skin and silver eyes, and her long white hair was done up in a tight bun on her head. The only bit of flair scene on her was the small white glyph looking tattoo on her left cheek.

'Well too bad we aren't here for sightseeing. For Traveler's sake you never change, not even after you killed Ghaul.'Spoke Lexi in annoyance before the third party began to speak up from his onw ship, which was the Sailing Shield class vessel bringing up the rear of the three ships.

'Come on guys do you always have to argue before a mission?' Spoke a male voice in a deep yet mechanical tone as the speaker's own holographic popped up right next to Lexi's.

While the same height as Lexi in Hologram form, the actual being stood nearly seven feet tall and was very broad and built in their Titan class Winterheart armor. Yet while Lexi and Chase were composed of flesh, this character was more mechanical in nature. His 'skin' was made of a silver colored metal and whenever he spoke his mouth flashed red just like the color of his eyes. Besides that the only extra feature they possessed was the two headphone like appendages that acted like 'ears.'

"Just a little bantering between friends Cal, it's just what makes fireteam Rogue what it is." Said Chase with a smirk that was mirrored by the other two with complimentary eye rolls added into the mix.

That is what these three were, members of fireteam Rogue, the greatest team of Guardian's since the Vanguard and resident doer's of the impossible. Lexi was the resident scholar, scientist and Warlock of the team whose powers over the Light have been honed to a fine point not just with Ikora but with the famed Osiris as well. Next was Caleb-31, or Cal as he was more commonly called by his friends, he was the Titan and heavy hitter of the team who was trained by Zavala and Lord Shaxx. Finally, there was Chase, the Hunter and leader of the team who had been trained by both Cayde and Osiris.

These three had all been revived around the same time and had first met at the Cosmodrome where together they killed the Archon Priest that dwelled there. From there they did just about every mission as a team. From destroying the heart of the Black Garden, Hunting down Skolas, killing both Crota and his father Oryx and even ending the plague that killed the Iron Lords.

Their bond was strained however when Gaul had come and taken the city with the Red Legion. Cal and Lexi had been helping evacuate the civilians while Chase had gone to confront the Cabal commander, but then came the loss of their Light and therefore their powers. Through the remainder of the Red War Chase was always concerned on whether his teammates made it out of the city alive or if they were killed like so many other Guardian's due to the loss of their powers and their ability to revive. It was only during the final assault on Gaul's forces did Chase reunite with his friend's right before he was sent up to kill Gaul since he was the only Guardian who had possessed Light at the time.

With Gaul finally gone and the Traveler awoken once more, the Guardian's had finally reclaimed their home. However, that didn't mean they could rest just yet as the minions of the Darkness were still out there and waiting to take their shot at the weakened Guardians. One example already happened due to the issue with Osiris on Mercury with which fireteam Rogue became a big factor in helping the legendary Warlock put a stop to the Vex's plans.

Yet here they were again following a lead from both Osiris and the Vanguard on reports of Vex and Cabal signals coming from behind one of Jupiter's moons and they were tasked to investigate the energies and if need be, destroy the source.

"So Lexi, and other info you can give us before we rush head first into danger like always?" Asked Chase as the brains of the team pulled up all of the current info they had on the mission as he and Cal waited patiently for her to speak.

'Nothing which we don't already know unfortunately. From what has been gathered numerous Cabal ships have been reported to be moving from Mercury to this location almost constantly with some occasional flares of both Vex tech and Cabal tech energies being picked up. Aside from that we are flying in blind.'

'Well that really helps. All we know is that we are rushing into danger that may include both Vex and Cabal forces.' Pointed out Cal.

"True enough guys but we gotta see what the Cabal are up to and what they're doing here. So put up your cloak's and let's get moving." Finished Chase as the transmission ended and all three ship's disappeared as their cloaking tech was activated right before reaching their target destination.

'Hooooly shit!' Declared Cal and his teammates couldn't blame him.

As soon as they passed the moon they saw exactly what the remaining forces of the Red Legion had been working on. It looked like a giant ring about the size of the moon they had just passed. The ring itself could be seen with mixtures of both Vex and Cabal tech as hundreds of Cabal ships of all classes flew around the ring as it looked to still be in the midst of construction. Even so the mere sight of the device made a pit form in the stomach's of the Guardian's.

"That looks sort of like a Vex time gate." Said Chase to himself as he studied the device as they slowly closed in on said construct.

'I think that's because it is.' Spoke Lexi darkly.

'How do you figure? I mean it looks similar but why would the Cabal want to build a Vex time gate all the way out here? And one that large no less!' Pointed out Cal. But it was Chase that answered for her.

"Maybe because what they're trying to bring isn't small enough for a usual Vex gate."

'I don't get it. What could they want to bring from the past or future that would require a gate that large?' Asked Cal once more with some annoyance.

'You moron! With a gate that big they could bring back the Almighty! Or if they wanted to they could just bring back their entire fleet, including Gaul, and attack the city again! Chase we need to destroy this thing NOW!' Exclaimed Lexi in panic and who could blame her? They were looking at the potential revival of what was maybe their greatest foe to date along with his solar system destroying weapon. This thing needed to be destroyed before they could even attempt such a thing.

"Alright here's what's gonna happen, Lexi, find us a weak spot that we can destroy this thing with one blow and send word to the Vanguard on what we have found here. Cal, when we go in I want you to take point, your ship can take a lot more punishment than mine and Lexi's and when we rush in you can guarantee that they're gonna notice." Ordered Chase and after getting the green light the trio began to move in.

Just as they had entered the perimeter of the ships, that were apparently pulling guard on the device, Lexi sent the other two a schematic of the ring from one of her scans with which one point was highlighted in red. Giving confirmation of receiving the intel the trio flew slowly through space, avoiding Cabal ship's all the while until they were just close enough to the device.

"Alright... NOW!" Declared Chase as the trio broke their cloak's and rushed the part of the device that they had planned to attack.

Unsurprisingly, the Cabal acted almost immediately as all of their ships began to close in on the Gaurdian's. Chase's plan was working though as Cal's ship tank everything the Cabal threw at it while returning fire with his own Solar cannons. The energy round's easily cut down the Cabal ships blocking their path and allowing Chase and Lexi to rush forward with their Void and Arc missiles locked on.

As soon as they were in range they launched and watched in satisfaction as their shot's struck true and from that one area, explosions blossomed across the rest of the ring.

"Good work guys now let's- what the hell!?" Declared Chase as the ring actually started to activate!

'It looks like hitting the energy conductor for the gate accidently turned it on! This thing is still gonna blow but the pull from that gate will drag us in if we don't get out of here now!' Warned Lexi, and true to her word numerous Cabal ships began to be dragged into the now activated Gate's glowing white depths.

No words needed to be spoken as the three Guardian's began to try and fly away from the device. They would have easily been out of the mess if it hadn't been for the fact that numerous Cabal ships were being dragged towards the device and forcing them to avoid the incoming ships.

'Dammit we can't pull away!' Shouted Cal and they all knew he was right. They could feel themselves being pulled back towards the portal and knew they were gonna be pulled in.

"Dammit all! El, send word to the Vanguard on what happened here. Hopefully where or whenever we end up they'll be able to get us back!" Chase ordered his Ghost who sent the message just before the members of fireteam Rogue were pulled through the Cabal made Vex gate.

As soon as they disappeared the gate itself erupted in a bright flash of light that turned the once large construct into nothing but floating space debris.

A few minutes had passed since fireteam Rogue had been pulled into the Vex gate and in that time the team had managed to right themselves and were now in a loose formation as the traveled through what looked like a tunnel of blue swirling light.

No one had spoken a word as no one knew exactly what to say and were just trying to contend with the fact that where or whenever they end up they will have to adapt and hope that their fellow Guardian's can hopefully find a way for them to get back. For no matter what humanity needed fireteam Rogue.

"Look alive people, I'm sensing the end of this ride." Spoke El getting everyone's attention as they were both happy and nervous at the news.

'So what's the plan Chase?' Asked Cal.

"We'll figure that out once we see where we've ended up." Was the Hunter's short answer as they all prepared to exit the gateway.

About a minute later and the trio exited the tunnel of light only to be surprised as what they say, and also the lack of. They expected a ton of Cabal ships to be waiting on the other side to blast them to bits for destroying their little project but to the Guardian's growing surprise there wasn't a single sign of Cabal anywhere around them. The only thing weirder than that was the fact that they seemed to have come out of another large ring-like device about as large as the Vex gate they just traveled through.

"Chase, I'm picking up a signal from a nearby planet! It seems like something is trying to jamm it but I can just manage to pull through the message since we're close enough to the source." Spoke up El suddenly while pulling up said message.

"This is the Human Colony of Eden Prime! To all Alliance forces we are under attack! I repeat we are under attack!" Spoke the message both increasing the Guardian's confusion and worry.

'Wait did they just say that it was a human colony!? I thought we lost all of those at the end of the Golden age!' Said Cal in shock.

'Hold on there Cal let's not get ahead of ourselves. I've read all of our information on the Golden Age and there was never a colony by the name of Eden Prime. Plus there has never been anything like the Alliance before.' Threw in Lexi with obvious suspicion.

"That doesn't matter right now. They claim to be human and they're under attack so that's good enough for me. Plus this seems like our only chance to get some answers and where and when we are. So let's get a move on Guardians, we got a colony to save." Declared Chase as the three ships sped off into space being guided by Chase's Ghost towards their next great adventure.
