After gunning through a few more cultists that had taken residence up in the engine room, he quickly went for cover. The male kneeled beneath a tall and imposing partition, getting his bearings and carefully reloading his scout rifle. The half empty magazine dropped into his free hand, which he proceeded to check how bullets he had left. The male quickly stuffed the magazine back into his scout, locked it and slid the bolt. The engine room was large, with plenty of room to hide. After the bullets flew, it was quiet.

Arxus remained in his position, waiting for some sign to move. Avgust and Varrus were out of his sight now, leaving him alone. He stayed there, listening, waiting for the right moment. And when it happened, he knew. A small fireteam of cultists began rounding the corner, which Arxus noticed by poking his head out from his cover. He quickly backed from view and inched towards the other side, with the intention of flanking them. Ripping a grenade from his chestpiece, he flipped the trigger and armed it. The orb sparked into blue to signify this. Arxus soon rolled the grenade, causing it to tumble right beneath the cultists. Then, boom.

The middle cultist was consumed by the blast of the flashbang, leaving the other two blinded. Arxus rushed out from his cover and shoved his scout rifle barrel in one of their faces before unloading three, point-blank, lethal shots. Even if they survived, the enviromental suit was pierced. Arxus switched his target and went after the other cultist, who came after him with a hand cannon. The cultist swung at Arxus and managed to knock his scout rifle away, leaving him unarmed. The Titan lunged forward at the armed cultist, intending on closing the distance between them. He immediately took a high-calibur round through the shoulder, easily ripping through him and causing intense pain. It didn't stop his charge, however.

Arxus took his hand to the cultist's face, obscuring their vision in the process. He moved to avoid any further shots, and promptly sprinted while holding him. The cultist was dragged while being held by the face. Arxus slammed the cultist into a wall and broke his back almost immediately, leaving the figure to crumble once he was released. After he finished with this, he clutched his shoulder and moved to grab his scout rifle again.
