Pelican Fox 320, En Route Destination- Cairo IV, Claotar
Silver team leaned against the cold, Titanium A plating of the Pelican. The new team now comprised of Commander LaTymee, Veteran ZanZuga, Sergeant First Class Joshua, Sergeant Casey, Sergeant Tori and two Hunters named, Alat'or and Glat'or, all sat in perfect posture. With the Drynk and Covenant Massacre Wars over, they were back to rebuilding their worlds and keeping the peace.
Regularly, Silver Team would capture or kill weapons dealers, pirates, rebel leaders. Just about anything that would harm the UNGA. LaTymee was talking quietly to ZanZuga about having to watch his back and such since LaTymee was now team leader, when his radio began to buzz. LaTymee excused himself and tapped his helmet slightly.
"Commander LaTymee this is General Kazel. When your flight docks at the station, you and only you shall depart. Is that understood?"
"Understood sir, Commander of Silver Team over and out." LaTymee tapped his helmet again and his radio shut off. He stood up and walked to the door leading to the cockpit. He pressed the code in and walked in, the door closing behind him. He walked in and leaned over the two seats, staring at the massive station. The co-pilot looked at him and looked back out the viewport. "ETA to Cairo IV pilot?" Asked LaTymee tilting his head slightly.
"ETA is approximately T-minus one minute and counting sir." Stated the pilot, while LaTymee nodded in approval. He patted the man's shoulder and walked back into the cargo hold. Several seconds later the Pelican entered the docking bay and settled in with a small, thump, as the clamps attached. The doors opened slightly and LaTymee hopped out, the doors closing before anyone else could. He nodded and moved out of the Pelicans thruster path and watched them depart.
He turned back around to the doors and walked to them and they hissed open. He stepped through and began his way to the command center. Most of the stations crew wasn't around. Most likely because they were on the planets surface at a meeting about new procedures that couldn't be sent to the station. All because of a few minor sparks through the system. A group of ODST and two Generals of the ODST walked past him down the hall and gave him a crisp salute. LaTymee returned the gesture and continued on.
Brigadier General Addison Escalera of the ODST put his hand down and turned his head forward again. The three guards in front of him stepped aside as he and the Five star General of the ODST, Dennis Fox, punched a code into a door. They stopped and entered. The room was dimly lit and there was a small table in the middle with a large window to the left on the wall. Dennis walked in and took his cap off and placed it under his arm. Addison did the same and stood at attention next to Dennis. The Chief of Staff came out from a room in the back. Three others came out behind him. One of the men's names was stitched on his suit. It read Colonel Chepinskas, Matthews. The other two were General Kazel, Stanley and Major Harty, Fredrick.They all took seats at the conference table and sat down.
The Chief of Staff looked around at them and leaned forward onto the table. "Gentlemen, three days ago a light recon cruiser was sent into the Slephir system to scout out a small weapons facility. The facility was, as of four days ago, still under UNGA control." He pressed a button that was on a small computer next to him. A hologram of the compound appeared on screen.
The Chief of Staff then turned and looked at them again. "We received this transmission yesterday." He then pressed another button while everyone looked at him. A recording of the message began playing.
'This is Engineer Brian Temme of UNGA weapons facility B-40. We have a breach in our docking bay and something is moving in the facility that or guards cannot handle. We are requesting emergency evac immediately from any UNGA vessel in the area.'
There was a short burst of static and an ear piercing scream. They all looked back to the Chief of Staff. He looked towards them as well. "You all have been called here because you are to combine some of the best of your forces and commence Operation Lighting. This operation is to be a fast in and out rescue and if need be, kill whatever was there. Choose three of your best commanders and there squads and have them move out bye the sixth. Dismissed."
The four commanders stood up, saluted and walked out. General Kazel moved to a different area of the station than the others. He had a conference with LaTymee.
