Caleb crept over the side of the snowy ridge, and scanned below him, his Helm of Saint-14 glowing pink faintly in the snow that was slowly falling. He felt like he needed a bit of fresh air, so he took of his helm. His brown, spiky hair fell into its original state, so that it looked identical to Sora's, and his blue eyes narrowed at the valley below him. He had been searching for weeks, scrounging every cache in the Himalayan mountain range, but Zavala's lost relic. He had kept it secret, tasking only Caleb with its safe return, but Caleb had no luck. His search had led him to this ridge in the Himalayan mountains, where Caleb sat perched above a small Fallen encampment. He grimaced. "Its gotta be here, we've checked all the other markers." Caleb's ghost materialized next to him. "If its not here, what do we do master?" Caleb grimaced again, and didn't even have to think about his response. "Then we tell him it's lost." His ghost seemed uneasy, but turned his attention back to the encampment. "So, master, how do we go about this?" "Would be easier if I had brought my sniper," Caleb mumbled, "But I don't see any other possibility besides sneaking around. Can't risk an all-out attack being ountimbered about 50 to 1." His ghost, looked down at the encampment, then back at Caleb. "Maybe we should rest a bit, sir, before trying. I'm quite tired, and I'm only machinery." Caleb thought for a second, then stood upright. "I suppose so. Ghost, sleeping bag please." The sleeping bag materialized next to him, and in a matter of minutes, Caleb had found a nice cave in the mountainside, amd settled down with a small fire. "Maybe we'll get reinforcements from Zavala?" "I doubt that," Caleb answered, "But I can ask. Ghost, open private, untraceable comms link to Zavala, please." The Ghost did as he was told, and Caleb requested to Zavala," Commander Zavala, we're in the last possible relic location, but there are a lot of Fallen down there. Request for backup ASAP." "I'll see what I can do, but I will only be able to manage a single guardian. I don't want this mission blowing up." "One more is all we need," Caleb responded. "Affirmative. Zavala out." Caleb relaxed back into his sleeping bag, and shut his eyes. "Did Zavala ever mention what this relic was for?" Caleb responded to his ghost quietly," No, but I am loyal to the Vanguard. What Zavala asks, I shall accomplish." "Very well sir." And with that, Caleb drifted off into dreams. [b]OPEN[/b]
