Arxus placed his hand to his helmet, muffling outside noise to listen to the communication line. There was nothing but static playing. "They were expecting us." Arxus began to speak. "The Bones of Enxor probably have jamming devices set up all over the Hellmouth. There's no way we'd be able to locate all of them before they seize the bone piece." The Titan lowered and aimed his scout rifle into the blinding darkness ahead. "Looks like we're on our own now." With his fireteam behind him, Arxus descended further into the Hive underground. The sounds of Thralls and Knights echoed through the hollowed tunnels that ran beneath Luna. The Bones were close now, this he knew.

Before long, Theseus found themselves in a pitch black chamber, somewhere beneath Luna's surface. The only source of light was a few Hive crystals, but even then they did little to illuminate the replete darkness of the room. The scowls of Hive creatures eminated from within. It was from there that Arxus could see many Hive troops attempting to breach through a collapsed wall. "Everyone hide!" He whispered then, concealing himself behind a larger stone. "Lights out." Grim turned off his built-in flashlight, as Arxus switched to the nightvision program that Scythe provided.

"Looks like they're preparing some sort of ritual." Arxus peered over the rock just a bit. "For what, I don't know. Scythe, how fast can you get a Walker down here? Maybe if we catch them off-guard, we can kill them all before they even know what's happening." Arxus nodded to himself and lowered back behind the rock. "C-8's going to be loud. They'll know we're here."
