"He's going to get himself killed!" She shouted, "I can't let that happen."
Despite the Phoenix being gone, she still had her wings of fire, and they turned indigo with determination, speckled with a firey orange and gold.
She stepped towards him, her wings spreading wider, and begin to flap to keep her from burning. She sets her hand on his shoulder and she starts to glow golden, [i]Fionn, don't let this Darkness consume you. Let your Light fight it.[/i]

He looks up at her, his eyes are glowing fiery orange and she can see fear in them for a split second before the world around them seems to fade away into nothing. She suddenly finds herself in a different clearing, similar to the one she was in with Fionn, but with no snow. A younger version of Fionn is sitting nearby, he dosent have the red tattoos on his face. Fionn stands and walks forward, straight through Sarah. He passes through as though she isn't even there. Like a ghost. [spoiler]no Destiny pun intended.[/spoiler]
-
She makes the realization, "He doesn't recognize me... it's Crota all over again!" She runs after Fionn. She runs fast and tries to tackle him.
-
She passes clean through hime, almost lije he's a hologram. She hears the voice of the Ahmkara from his knife. [i]Be calm, oh friend of my bearer. What you see is not real, but a memory from many years ago.[/i] Fionn calls out. "Pox? Where are ya, love?"
-
She stands by, watching.
-
A redheaded girl with green eyes and freckles suddenly drops from a tree, landing next to him and hugging him. Fionn smiles, surprised, and hugs back. "There ya are, love." Pox smiles back. "Yup, here I am." She kisses his cheek. "You said you wanted to meet me here?" She asks.
-
She watches in awe, seeing how it was a mirror to her and Cody... except Fionn actually let Pox kiss him.
-
Fionn laughs. "Yeah, I did. I... Needed to say a few things." "Like what, Fin?" She asks, leaning her head on his shoulder. "Well, ya know we signed up for tha' job to visit the Kremlin in ol' Russia?" "Yeah?" "I just... I have a real bad feelin' about it. Like we ain't gonna make it through...." She reaches up, cupping his face. "We will. We allways do." She tells him. "I know, but I had to ask ya somethin'. An' it can't wait." He says, smiling. "And what might that be?" He drops to his knee and pulls out a ring. "Pox... Jamie. You know I love ya... An' I want ya to be mine for as long as we live. Will ya marry me?" He asks her.

She takes that thought back, [i]No, no, they were more like me and James.[/i]
-
Pox, or Jamie, tackles him to the ground with a kiss. "Of course I will, dummy!" He says through tears of joy. He slides the ring onto her finger. The vision fades to black. [i]She was my first bearer, the one known as Pox, and the one of many I knew as friend. When she well, my blade passed to him.[/i] The Ahmkara continues.
-
"I say wielder, but you're a curse so bearer I can see."
-
[i]But whom is the accursed? His light is poison in my soul, as painful as I ever am to he. Unjustly tried. Unjustly judged. We are one and the same, my bearer and I.[/i] The viosin fades back to reveal a battlefield. Fionn, Pox, and an Exo Hunter stand together against a horde of Fallen. Pox wields the very same bone knife Fionn now wields as she fights off a pair of Dregs. Fionn stands on a nearby rooftop, sniping tge enemy while the Exo, Chrome, attempts to close a pair of blast doors leading into a bunker. Pox stands in the bunker entry, keeping Chrome safe.

"Why must you act like a parasite? You were once noble."
-
[i]Yes. Noble we stood once, a mighty race. Until the children of light attacked. They hunted us, slaughtered us. Smashed our eggs and burned our nests. All for what reason? Fear.[/i] The Ahmkara growls. Fionn is ambushed by a Captain, which grabs his throat and lifts him up. Pox sees him and hurls her knife at the Fallen, killing it. Fionn grabs the knife and uses it to defend himself as more move in on him. "I need ta move, there's too many. I'll try an link up with ya on the other side!" He shouts, leaping from the roof. "Hurry up, partner!" Chrome replies witha southern drawl. Just then the blast doors clirse, cealing him and Pox inside.
-
"Mirror mirror," She mutters.
-
[i]Darkness and vengeance. Death and ruin. That is my lot. This one, the bearer of mine, promised me something sweeter than life.[/i] Fionn fights his way through the Fallen, eventually making it to the blast door. Above them, a ketch appears. Skiff after skiff drops down. "Fionn! Our transmat is being jammed! They're getting inside the bunker!" Pox shouts. Suddenly, they hear the two words none wish to hear. "Guardian down! Chrome is down!"
-
The vision shifts. Replication Chamber: Sarah, a Titan and a Hunter are trying to escape the explosion roaring behind them. The Hunter gets stuck, but Sarah and the Titan runs along. As soon as they make it out of there, the Titan does a headcount, "One, two... where's Mark?" The Titan was James. They turn around to see that the Mark's foot was caught on a SIVA tendril. Sarah throws off her helmet and drops her hand cannon, the Eyasluna. "Sarah, there won't be enough time..." Lunar says. She bolts in, James shouting her name. Using her hand, she burns off the tendril, pulls up Mark, and pushes him towards the door. The Hunter barely makes it out, and James is banging on the closed door, crying, and repeating her name. "Sarah! Sarah! Sarah! No. No. No..."
-
She suddenly hears a voice that sounds like Fionn's. "How'd ya make it out o' there?"
-
"That's when I awakened the Phoenix again, to survive the explosion."
-
A ghostly image of Fionn appears. "I'm glad you survived, Lady Warlock." He says, smiling. "I already lost enough people to explosions."
-
"What happened next was the worst journey of my life."
-
"Same for me. Tha' bunker you saw... It was full o' nuclear warheads from pre golden age Russia. Pox detonated it to ty an' keep 'em away from the Fallen."
-
"I guess it worked. Either way, the Eliksni hate us."
-
"I killed their entire house afterwards..." He adds.
