Pain that's all I felt as the zealot's energy dagger burned through my armour into my heart. Everything faded to black, I knew I was dead I accepted it had lost, reach had fallen, my team was dead and finally I was alone.

And yet something still told me I wasn't even close to the end of my tale.

Si… wa…

I opened my eyes, all I could see was a purple smoke floating amongst the blackness of the void that surrounded me… but there was a light coming from behind me.

Wake… u..

Somehow I rolled to face the light. It was a person he/she was sat on a throne, he/she was glowing with a golden light… it was beautiful.

She is calling you… calling you to her side. The voice came from all around but I knew this person was the source… who is calling? I thought everyone I know is DEAD

GUILT… it holds you back. Let go. *MOVE FORWARD! NEVER LOOK BACK! HESATATE AND YOU WILL AGE! RETREET AND YOU WILL DIE!*

Move forward? YES! I extended my arm to grasp hold of something anything… and I did. My hand had grasped something I looked up. It was a corpse, an dead elite major. I pulled myself up to find myself on a mountain of corpses and at the two was that golden glow yet again, it called to me, it screamed in my mind that I must reach it that I must meet the person who sat upon the throne or be left here to rot for eternity.

I dragged my self-up the corpse pile each second getting closer and each second getting harder to move each thought of giving up was squashed by another more powerful one "MOVE FORWARD! NEVER LOOK BACK! HESATATE AND YOU WILL AGE! RETREET AND YOU WILL DIE!" that person words repeated over and over until finally I was at the top.

I was greeted by a blinding golden light; slowly it died down to reveal the person on the golden throne. There sat a man his body was clearly decaying badly but clearly hung on to life as an almost skeletal hand beckoned me forwards.

Come closer my child.

I did, I pulled myself to my feet and stumbled to the figure that placed his decayed hand on my shoulder.

I have called to many , but none have passed the test and now two pass within days of each other. Humanity faces its final trials and is winning spectacularly, though it feels like defeat your actions have forged the path for salvation… but humanity in other plains and other times are failing… without help they will fall, so I ask of you SPARTAN-B312, Noble six, will you push forwards through the darkness and carry the weight of humanity on your shoulders. Will you be the angel that will carry humanity through its darkest times?

I could only say two words "I will" (A/N yes the man on the throne is the god emperor from war hammer *this is a quote from the bleach anime. final notice i clam nothing as everything belongs to there respective owners)
