[Time remaining: 25 seconds]

Four guardians raced to stall the worldbreaker, but the Hive prince had realized their intentions.

He roared, fire pouring from his blade as he swung. Crota's sabre cleaved through stone and space, tearing the lunar surface apart. His wicked viridian embers danced, twisting into a turbulent tempest that erupted forwards.

Then the winds howled, corrupted with Crota's Oversoul. It howled and trembled with the voices of devoured worlds, all eventually condensing into a tide.

[Time remaining: 24 seconds] 

The timer ticked but the world had slowed down. Void's light flared.

He could see it, he could see everything. The ruinous emerald fire eating away at the ground, the monstrous tides storming towards him, and Crota's Oversoul that burned bright, akin to a corrupted star in a malignant sky.

Void tensed, a frightening pressure erupted from within him. At this instant, every fibre in his being was trying its hardest to push his body past the limit.

His heart pounded and blood rushed his veins. Gripping his blade, Void drew in a sharp breath.

'There's no time'

His eyes settled on the Hive prince, as if aware, the gears of time turned ever so slightly. He could see the approaching tide.

'Faster, I need to be faster'

His feet dug into the ground. A faint azure glow shimmered in his eyes. Void flickered.

'Faster than I've ever been.'

He exploded forward, racing against time itself. His form vanished, the afterimage of his light streaking azure and lilac across the battlefield.

-Clink-

Void swung. A wave of azure light traced his blade, his sword met the tempest head-on. But he felt it instantly. He knew the difference between him and a Hive prince.

A crushing pressure followed, if he crumbled now, Crota's Oversoul would swallow everything whole. As the world weighed on his shoulders, Void grit his teeth.

He would not fail here. 

[Time remaining: 23 seconds]

"Watch your back!" Sai barked, arcs jolted through her. She tugged on lightning and raced towards the tide. Right at that instant, the skies rumbled, and Wei raised her fist coalescing the turbulent clouds into a quivering star.

The titan bellowed, beckoning thunder, and the star descended, wrapping around her wrist. Wei clenched her fist, a storm cloud swirled around her arm.

"Move now!" Wei bellowed, her voice a storm itself as she hurled the quivering star into the tide. The impact was blinding, a flash of thunder and light.

Void's hands trembled, the lightning seemed to affect him. As the storm thundered closer, he dragged his sword across the tide, gathering light into himself and flickered away.

Like an eruption, the corrupted winds clashed with the thunderstorm. But it wasn't over. Sai sped up, flicking her wrist and dragging lightning into her palms. With a swift leap the huntress fashioned lightning into a staff, spinning it in the air. 

Sai twirled the staff in her arms, and aimed towards the heart of the tide. Her light surged, her grip tightened. The next instant, she flung the staff, it shot towards the erupting tides, piercing through them. 

A malevolent maelstrom of thunder and fire broke out, scorching and scarring the barren moon dust. As the tremors settled a crater emerged, carved into the lunar surface.

Beyond it, wisps of fog merged and spat Void out to the ground. Panting, he struggled to his feet, his eyes glued to the battlefield searching for Crota. The battle wasn't over– It couldn't be.

Embers sparked beside him, an instant later, they scattered to reveal Eriana. Her flaming wings a soothing warmth. The warlock waved her hand and a healing rift surged open. 

"Be careful," she said softly, her voice steady despite the crumbling world around her. The words were simple, but the weight behind them gave Void pause. He nodded, drawing strength from her presence.

[Time remaining: 19 Seconds]

Void hurriedly glanced at the timer, "He won't be like this for long. 19 seconds before Crota regains his powers."

Hundreds of questions raced in her mind, but for now, Eriana chose to trust the young hunter before him. Whatever the cause, they could not waste this opportunity.

"Zavala's ordered the retreat, the backline is secured." Eriana confirmed.

Here gaze shifted to the battlefield. Behind her, titans held the Hive army at bay while warlocks gathered at the edge of the field, their portals beginning to shimmer with light. Hope flickered in her eyes.

"I understand." Void heaved a breath, stumbling forwards. His hands quivered, a jolt arced between his fingers. A subtle reaction that didn't go unseen.

Eriana stuttered, she was sure of what she'd seen, "Void, your light…" 

"I know." Void crept closer to the crater, his aura flickered, shifting between lilac and blue. 

He sensed Sai and Wei's light, relieved that they were ready to continue. But where was Crota?

Had he retreated? No that wasn't possible, Void turned towards the sky. The corrupted star flashed bright, tendrils of necrotic fire flared in the horizon. 

Above it all, a lone Sabre hung in the sky and it juddered.

[Time remaining: 17 seconds]

"Get ready" Void said, his voice steeling. Sai and Wei appeared beside him, their lights burning fiercely. Together, they turned their eyes skyward.

A seam of the world became undone, and Crota emerged from its gaping maw, brimming with power. The Hive prince raised his hand, and his blade answered. Just then, Crota flicked his hand down.

The Sabre shook, plunging towards the surface. As the calamitous blade descended towards them, Sai and Wei shot towards the sky, channeling their light they raced to deflect it.

Void saw the sabre falling towards them. His hands shimmering with arcs slowly brushing his blade as he sheathed it. A faint memory of Pahanin's technique flashed in his mind, soon mixing with his own imagination. 

He could do it. No, he had to do it.

-Clink-

[New Subclass Unlocked! : Bladedancer]

Void's light shifted, a brilliant blue overtaking him, he looked up and swung, racing towards the sky like a thunderbolt as he appeared beside Sai and Wei. The three thunderbolts seemed to merge as they clashed with the prince's sabre.

As thunder once again clashed against the Oversoul, the horizon tore at its seams. 

[Time remaining: 16 seconds]
