Chapter 1
"You have quiet the resume mister...Ann-"
"Andrzej."
"On-jay, right. Graduated from a public high school early, black belt in Krav Maga and Karate, expert in Historical European Swordsmanship, internships and combat experience under both the FBI, JW GROM. Was to be an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, but placed into the Kilo battalion in the UNSC. Currently a Corporal. Last surviving member and leader of Iron squad, after the ambush of Aluvion. I am sorry to hear that."
"Just got back from the funerals. May we continue?" The man across the table nodded.
"Of course. Why do wish to join the program? Judging by your records, you could easily be transfered to another squad in Kilo battalion, or anywhere in the UNSC for that matter." He took a deep breath.
"Word going around is that the UNSC is looking for the silver bullet to take down the Covenant." The official raised an eyebrow at this. "Don't give me that look sir. The higher ups need all the help they can get. I am willing to give it to them, but I will be more beneficial in this new program. How many more innocent lives need to be lost before this damn war ends in our favor, sir?"
"Very well, your profile speaks fully about you. Remarkable leadership skill, 89% target accuracy with all weapons, including two Covenant weapons. Very good reported social skills, no previous problems regarding workspace, very good at accepting orders, formed and lead multiple successful operations." The man across the table closed the folder and stood up. "Excuse me, this will take some time." Thomas nodded his head, waiting patiently in his chair. It was reaching about 57 minutes before the door opened up, the interviewer returning with nothing left.
"I'm pleased to let you know that you will be working with us Mr. Andrzej." He extended his hand out forward. Keeping his cool, Thomas stood up and shook his hand.
"Thank you sir"
"Welcome to Project Freelancer, and you may call me Counselor Price."
The next day:
Thomas stood there in in his UNSC uniform, waiting in the hanger in front of a Pelican with a packed duffel bag at his feet. He and another soldier were to rendezvous with a ship waiting in orbit called the "Mother of Invention". He already went over some of the dossiers along with his own earlier that day. Doubt they'll respect me, or even listen to me. Apparently I'm the youngest one there so far. Damn, this is the beginning of Iron Squad all over again. Snapping him away from his thoughts was a set of footsteps approaching. Andrzej turned to see a man that matched one of the dossiers.
A white man with green eyes and bleach blond hair, and twenty-one years old from Leonis-Minoris. Former UNSC as of two weeks ago, joined the project since he had nowhere else to go. Despite this, he was also in his UNSC uniform and carried a duffel bag over his left shoulder.
"Corporal David Culver," Andzej extended his hand out, "I'm Corporal Thomas Andrzej, apparently the new trainer." With hesitance he shook it anyway. "I was told to look over the files of the agents for the program. I hope you don't mind that I saw yours." he said as he picked up his own bag.
"Find anything, interesting?" Culver interrogated as they stepped onto the Pelican.
"Just that you did the right thing out there on the field, and that I know I can already trust you with my life."
"Huh, not exactly what I was expecting, but, okay." The Pelican's door closed as the vehicle began to take off into orbit.
