chapter 14

No one pov.

"Bullshit!" Cayde laughed as he heard what happened to his son in his time during death.

"That's what I said." Nathen said as he leaned back in his chair. "But everything about him was so convincing."

"Kid either you hit your head kinda hard or you got conned." Cayde said as Zavala, and Ikora walked in.

"I don't think either because of this." Nathen said pulling out his knife and tossed it Cayde who caught it by the hilt. As he unsheathed it was taken back by how clean, precise, and deadly it looked. "Now there's a little button on the bottom." Cayde raised his eyebrow and saw a little black button. He then pressed it which opened up a compartment on the hilt to show a glowing yellow fragment of something within.

"That looks like," Cayde started to say.

"A piece of the traveler." Zavala said examining.

"How is this possible?" Ikora asked inspecting the weapon.

"The traveler can do anything. Why not make a weapon of the light?" Nathen said as Cayde just kept staring. "But I still don't understand what he meant when he said it's your mind." Nathen said as he was handed back the knife.

"What if," Ikora started, "what if the place within your mind is the first place you remember or something?" She asked as he frowned.

"But my earliest memory I remember is being with that family." He said a bit irritated.

"Technically you can remember every moment of your life. All you need to do is open your mind." Ikora said as Zavala and Cayde nodded when someone knocked on the door.

"Well we're going to have to put that self discovery journey on hold." Nathen said while going to the door to let who ever in.

"Ah Mr. 6." Ozpin saixmd with a smile. "I'm joyed to see you alive."

"Well Guardians don't really die. Only way to kill us is through our ghost." He said pulling out his letting it float in front of the headmaster. "So what's up?"

"Its time for you and your team to be officially integrated into beacon." He said as Nathen raised an eyebrow.

"But I thought we didn't complete the objective?"

"Well technically you didn't because you were the only one not to grab a relic, but given the circumstances of your *cough* death I'll let it slide." He said as Nathen nodded.

"Alright. Is my fireteam there?" Ozpin shook his head no and as they left to get the rest of his team, Cayde got up and looked at Zavala and Ikora.

"Do you know what this means?" Ikora asked the 2 vanguard titans.

"Cake for the colonel?" Cayde asked jokingly.

"It means that we might have a direct line to the traveler, and that the traveler is more than we thought." Zavala said ignoring Caydes comment.

"But death is the only way to talk to the light?" Ikora said. "That seems dangerous."

"Yeah exactly why we are not going to explore to much into my sons brain about this." Cayde said getting serious.

"Of course. It's for Nathen to decide if he wants to communicate with the traveler." Zavala said as they left the dorm room to follow the young hunter. Holiday was hugging and talking to her daughter Trish who still hasn't heard the news of Nathen.

"I'm so sorry hun." Holiday said holding the awoken girl close into her shoulder letting her cry.

"Why did it have to be him?" Trish cried as they heard a knock on the door.

"Busy at the moment." Holiday said as the knocking continues. "We're not taking any visitors." Holiday called as she was then silenced by a voice.

"What about friends?" The voice called causing Trish to look at the door.

"Nathen?" Ttish said shakily as the door opened to show the fireteam leader standing next to Ozpin.

"Hey." Was all Nathen got to say before being tackled to the ground causing him to laugh and hug trish back. "Sorry about the delay." He said as Trish then punched his chest.

"Don't you dare do that again." She warned as they got off the ground. Holiday smiled but was confused.

"Why did it take so long to come back? Usually you Guardians are back in the fight within minutes. Why did it take 7 hours?" Holiday asked as Nathen answered.

"Ask your future husband he'll be able to explain." Nathe said. "Now come on let's go get Jessica. We're getting sorted into beacon." The 2 ran off with ozpin following.

"Okay then." Holiday said before leaving the room bumping into the vanguard. "Hey what happened?" When Nathen and Trush got to Jessica it was easily noticeable that Jessica wasn't really affected by his death. She was working on her weapons. They explained the situation and they left to get to the main hall. All the students were already there since that's where Nathens funeral was.

"Alright now students because of the resurrection of Nathen 6 it has been decided to move up their invitation ceremony. Could the I please have Nathen 6, Trish Holiday, and Jessica  Exo please cone on stage?" He asked and the students clapped while a certain fashion obsessed girl yelled out she loved Nathen. "For Collecting the black Rook, and the white Rook Your Team shall be known as Team Guardian at your own request. You will be a 3 man team that will be sent on missions by yourself or as backup. You will be lead by Nathen 6." Nathen stepped forward and took off his helmet to smile and waved to the crowd. "Now off to class."
