====The Glass Splinter====

~~TBA~~

On their trip to the Vex station, Scourge began to worry if she was becoming an aimless misanthrope, going through her eternal life without a true goal. She even began to feel self-hatred for her lack of apparent ideals. She was stopped by Faith, who told her that her purpose was to become the “Great Ruler” she had always wanted to be. But Scourge felt that maybe that wasn’t what she wanted anymore. Their conversation was cut short upon arriving to the station. Appearing similar to a Golden Age space station, the pair had become concerned if they arrived at the right place. But as they entered through the stations vacuum-seal doors, it had become clear that they were at the right place.

Hundreds of Vex units gathered within the seemingly infinite room, staring at the dredgen. When she turned around to reopen the doors to find that they were gone, only more Vex units remained. The units began to glow in unison, the light flashing her in all directions. Within an instant, Scourge had been in a different place than where she was. She questioned if she had died and if any of that was real. Faith assured that what happened was real, mentioning that they are now trapped within a Vex simulation. When she looked around, the simulation looked similar to the [[The Gorgons' Labyrinth|Gorgons' Labyrinth]], they were in the [[Vault of Glass]]. Scourge aimlessly wandered the labyrinth with no sign of the [[Gorgon|Gorgons]] that resided there. As she wandered, Scourge would run into a massive [[Blight|blurry ball of neutrino-like energy]]. When she touched the ball, more began to appear all around her, exploding and turning into [[Taken|monstrous creatures]] vaguely resembling reminiscent foes. The creatures quickly swarmed her and held their positions; Scourge tried to fight them, but they were invulnerable to her Thorn. As the dredgen was backed into a corner, the creatures suddenly parted to reveal a Guardian making their way over to her. The Guardian seem familiar to Faith, but he could not explain why. Scourge looked to her side, noticing a “remnant” of Vex energy pulsing through the wall. She quickly touched the energy as the area around her began to change.

In what felt like an absolute instant, Scourge was sent free falling through [[Vex Network|a space of purple and pink mist]] filled with floating segmented platforms. When Scourge looked straight forward, on the largest platform resided a [[Sol Imminent|Descendant]] [[Hydra]] unit with two large arms, focusing a form of blurry and bright energy in between its hands; Faith noted that the energy reading were similar to that of Scourge’s light. But before Scourge could attack or retaliate against the Hydra, she and her Ghost were transported to another simulation. It had been a few days until Scourge regained consciousness within a wet and warm forest. Scourge cackled loudly, exclaiming that their experience was becoming more fun than she expected. Scourge likened the simulations to that of a game; find the glitch and move on to the next level. Faith interjected, stating that the Vex were most likely learning to simulate [[paracausality]] through her body, urging the dredgen to find the glitch and escape the simulation as fast as possible. Scourge replied that she would do so, but wished to enjoy herself first.

Scourge would find herself in a bar run by a man named Wu Ming. The dredgen asked for a drink as she sat at one of the tables within the bar. As the bartender prepared her drink, a young [[Hunter]] would engage Scourge, asking if she had come with anyone. She replied not, focusing her attention to her holstered weapon. The Hunter sat next to her, placing his [[Last Rite (Scout Rifle)|rifle]] on the table, asking if she liked it. Scourge, playing into his innocence, replied that she did, wondering where she got it from. The man cracked, saying that he was borrowing it from his friend; Scourge laughed and complimented the Hunter on his sense of humor. From across the tavern, a large [[Titan]] walked over to Scourge, pushing the small Hunter out of the way and placing his arm on her table. Scourge’s coy and playful demeanor had shifted to become more cold and stiff. The Titan asked where she had gotten her weapon; she replied that it was none of his business. The Titan demanded she answer the question when Scourge stood up, unholstering her weapon and putting a bullet into the Titan’s head. Fights began to break out in the bar, lightbearers killing each other with their violent abilities. The Hunter, who called himself Mark, would confront Scourge, asking if they could talk again sometime. Scourge replied that she’d be happy to as she snuck away from the bar.

They had arrived in a snowy forest far from Wu Ming’s bar; Faith demanded that Scourge find the glitch, as the threat of the Vex being able to simulate paracausality was too high to be messing around. Before Scourge could answer the question, a [[Forum:Autumn|Hunter]] wearing a Devils cloak would enter the forest, staring down Scourge and her Ghost. When asked who he was, the Hunter replied that she wouldn’t live long enough to find out. The Hunter unholstered his [[The First Curse|pistol]] and opened fire upon the dredgen. Scourge was reluctant to fight, but deemed it was necessary. Scourge and the Hunter fought extensively until they came to a standstill; The Hunter realized it was impossible for him to win, she was too powerful. The Hunter gave up, showing his respect to Scourge for besting him in battle. It took a minute, but Scourge noticed the glitch appear on the Hunter’s chest. She “hugged” the Hunter to his surprise, transporting Scourge back into the Vex Network. Faith sighed in relief as they had finally escaped the simulation, with Scourge stating that she had a lot of fun. Before they could be put into another simulation, Scourge [[Blink|blinked]] onto a floating platform to the disdain of the Vex. The [[Axis Mind]] attempted to kill Scourge with its simulated Light, but Faith had devised a plan and given it to the Guardian. Scourge consumed her Nova Bomb to empower herself before she began punching down into the platform, cracking it and opening a portal out of the Network. She jumped into it, falling through the Vex’s inner datta, ending up directly in front of the [[Vault of Glass]] on Venus. Faith had called their jumpship to the planet as Scourge lied on the ground. He asked if anything was wrong; She replied that she had so much fun, that was the least of her worries.
