"Captain Kane? We have just finished our blind jump. Cortana managed to evade most of their fighters and cruisers, but we're still not far enough away to be sure if they still know where we are." Private Berry reported.
"Well, prepare all crew for combat and get all fighters into space. Prepare all lifeboats also. This is only a Helcyon class ship. We can't win against of all those Covenant." The captain responded. "But we can give 'em one hell of a fight."
"Sir, should I awake the Master Chief? If I do, we will increase our chances of survival." Berry asked.
"Yes, and we should probably get our Cortana into his head too. I don't want those Covenant getting her." Kane answered
First Mate Zachery Winston (AN. My name is not Zachery Winston. Just a character I used in a story I wrote in high school. All my main characters have been named the same ever since) brought a report to the captain with a look of utter shock on his face.
"Sir, I'm getting strange pulses in this area. If I'm reading this correctly they're all X-Ray pulses also. I'm also getting strange gravity reads." The first mate reported with a solemn undertone.
"That can't be right. There are no black holes around here." Kane responded
"Well, sir, we did make a blind jump. Maybe no ship has ever been in this sector before. There are no colonies either, so the Covenant would not know about it either."
"This is bad. Do we have enough time to go back to light speed?" Kane asked
"Even if we did sir, it wouldn't help us any. Not even light can escape from a black hole." The first mate responded.
"Oh, damn and blast. Well, at least they won't get Cortana." Kane said. "Is the Master Chief awake yet?
"Yes sir. He just awoke. He is going through system diagnostics right now. He'll be on the bridge soon." Said the first mate.
"Well, with us going into a black hole. I suppose theirs no reason for that. Does anyone else know what's going on?" Kane asked
"Just us and the pilots sir. I didn't want to start a panic." The first mate responded.
"How much longer?"
"We'll be at Event Horizon in exactly 20 minutes." The first mate responded.
"And then we all die"
"Not exactly sir. What happens in a black hole is pretty much unknown. Most likely we'll all be crushed into the size of an atom. But other possibilities exist." He continued on. "We could go into the future, or the past. Millions, maybe even billions of years. Who knows what could happen?
"Well then. Issue a message telling the crew what's about to happen. And then. We wait and see what happens." Kane ordered
"Aye, aye sir."
Yeah that's pretty shot for a first chapter, but it's going to get better! I promise!
