Chapter 2: The Tower of Light
As Omega-45 and Phantom ship fly off into the distance on the roof of a building in the complex was a lone hooded figure was watching them. The figure turned around and jumped of the building as it was halfway to the ground it disappear into particles of light.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
“So remind me again where are we headed?” I asked the little light ball.
”Toward the light.” it said cryptically
“I know that but where exactly?” I said in frustration. “All you managed to explain so far is that you are a piece of the Voyager, I somehow now have the ability to control space alongside with my previous abilities, and now you refuse to even tell me where we are heading toward.”
The small light then flew into my chest. As I was about to rant again about how helpful the light-bulb was. It spoke “The reason I couldn't tell you was because, we Phantoms do not see the world the way you Exo, Human and Exile see it. The way we see is similar to a bat when we have not found our Guardian. We only see the world as you do when we enter our Guardian so please keep that in mind as I will not be the only Phantom that you will be seeing from now on. Also for your information the ability to control space was something you had all along just hidden deep within you.”
Surprised by this sudden burst of information I tried to make head and tail of it. While we fly toward the light as he said it I noticed the solemn figure of the Voyager in the distance. “Hey Phantom, is this what you meant by 'Toward the Light'?” The light-bulb managed to confirm one of my suspicions over where we are going. As we approach the Voyager I noticed that beneath the Voyager was a large metropolis with a humongous spire neat the center that reaches up toward it. As our ship was heading toward the spire but some hundred miles off the metropolis a screen popped up in front of me and a stern voice came out of it.
“UNIDENTIFIED AIRCRAFT IF YOU DO NOT IDENTIFY YOURSELF IN THE NEXT TEN SECOND WE WILL RESORT TO EXTREME COUNTERMEASURE.” Startled by the sudden extreme transmission I was about to respond before Phantom interrupted me declaring “This is Phantom000Omega on-board. I repeat Phantom000Omega on-board I have managed to find my Guardian. Do not fire at our aircraft. Do we have permission to dock at the Tower of Light?” I was holding my breath hoping that Phantom reply was proper as I was preparing myself to begin evasive maneuver in case something goes horribly wrong. “PERMISSION GRANTED PHANTOM000OMEGA PLEASE HEAD TOWARD THE DOCKING BAY 12 AND WE WILL OUTFIT YOUR AIRCRAFT TO THE LATEST STANDARD.” As the transmission ended I let out a long sigh, before asking Phantom “Hey, little light mind giving me a head up next time I really don't want any more deadly surprise...”

As we head to the docking bay the light-bulb spoke “Head up Omega you about to get one more nasty surprise.” Wondering if this is some sort of twisted humor of his, he transported me out of the ship and as I was reorientation myself I heard multiples cocking of rifles around me as I look around I noticed these medieval age armored troop surrounding me. Exasperated I said “You've got to be kidding me.” As I raised my hands up I heard a high pitched voice coming from behind the armed troopers “Oh not really it all part of the routine until you get fully registered Guardian.” What I saw was the beginning of my worst nightmare in this tower.

Hey everyone so here the deal some time ago I managed to write all the way up to chapter 5 when suddenly the dreaded blue screen of death attacked!!!! Sadly this managed to erase all my rough draft and final draft of the chapter i have written. Over time i found out that i still had a warranty and could still replace the laptop and so i had to wait until the computer was replaced with a new one. Against the screen of death i decided to take multiple precaution to prevent this from happening. Updates will be sporadic so dont expect any chapter soon.
