The hatch shut and Q hopped back into the pilot seat, manually boosting over to where the fighting was. He was flying low to confuse any type of missile lock or tracking.

-
[i]No missiles locked onto Quincy, but bolts of energy and gunfire certainly did - they rained down upon his ship, as Arianna yelped and dove to the flooring as a bolt suddenly passed through the ship. They'd have to land, and quickly.[/i]
-
Q snarled at the amount of attention his old ship was getting, heading for a cleared out courtyard in the outskirts of Dojoville. He landed, more or less dropping the ship the last meter, a loud "CLANK" sound being made by the drop. "Took me weeks to get this thing running again.." he said to himself, rather sadly.
-
"Sorry...Remind me to help you with fixing it, my fault that it's...well, crashed." [i]Arianna muttered, rising from the ship's floor as Achreíos scrambled up from her pocket, wrapping around her hand as she held him tightly.[/i] "We won't be fixing anything if we stay here," [i]He said.[/i] "Let's get going - specifically to the Dojo, we won't last a minute out there.."
-
"Dont worry 'bout the ship. Ol' bird didn't have much time left anyway..Allright, you're Arianna, right?" he asked as he stood, picking up a long, sniper-looking weapon with an ammo drum.
-
"Yes, yes I am.." [i]Arianna replied, grabbing her bag as she exited the crashed ship. Bolts and gunfire flew past them, although none of it was directed to the trio.[/i] "We need to get to cover - and how do you know my name?"
-
He takes his helmet off momentarily. "You dont remember?" he asked with a chuckle. He was missing his right ear and had more permanent scars than current Q did, and looked older too.
-
"I don't remember a lot... Wait...Q-Quincy?!" [i]Arianna's pale face almost turned even paler, as she covered her mouth.[/i] "I-I remember! When I used to come to your coffee shop and we talked and-" "Hey, Ari.." [i]Achreíos reminded her, although Quincy could sense happiness within the dæmon's "heart". Arianna nodded, looking at him and then Q.[/i] "We best move through as quietly as possible. Althreath's forces are tough - but they're not good against stealth."
-
"That I've already figured out. Its hard to explain but im not entirely from around here. Or more specifically im not from now." he said as his helmet reformed. He hoisted thought for a minute before going to a chest and opening it, replacing his current weapon for a particularly large one. It looked to be an LMG with the letters "BTRD" engraved in the side. "Ah, there's my pride and joy!" he said as he picked it up. "Okay, now im ready." he said as he stepped outside again.

[i]BOOM![/i] [i]In the distance, a giant of a being crashed down upon the ground - it stared upon Dojoville, and judging from its height, it was about six-hundred feet tall or so. It was a couple of miles away, which was probably a good thing..[/i] "The World Eater... Not the time to speak. Let's go!"
-
Q started walking before stopping. "Where specifically are we going?"
-
"The Dojo! You could probably stay back, I could try getting through this mess!" [i]Arianna ran through abandoned streets and alleyways, as a transmission came to Quincy:[/i] https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/223195977/0/0/1
