I was born to rebuild; by way of destruction. I was chosen to pass a blessing yet bare it like a curse. I was destined to revive all humanity and die... That is the fate of me: Kira, project Andromeda.
"Something's interference or some sort of static white noise is coming though." Cortana told Master Chief (Will from now on be referred to as: John or MC
"Bring it up on the screen." MC told the pilot of his ship, who immediately did as told. The broadcast was extremely blurry and glichy.
"...Andromeda...hope...abandoned school...safe...dead..." The message then replayed itself in a loop.
"Can you pick up on where this is being sent from?" MC asked another staff member.
"It says here that...its from Reach...it says that this recording has been sent here manually..." The staff member answered as he frowned with confusion.
"Reach? That place is long gone." Someone else said.
"This must be a joke. A trap." Someone else stated out loud.
"What do you think, Cortana?" MC asked her.
"Hook me up to this ship." She told him, who did as she asked. After several minutes, she turned to him. "There is no signs of edit. This is what the broadcast is."
She played the clear, true form of the broadcast.
"Please, if there is anyone out there! Come save Andromeda, the last hope of humanity! We have been working in the basement of an old abandoned school. This project must be saved! The project can not die! If Andromeda dies, everyone is as good as dead."
"..." Everyone was silent as they processed what the scientist were frantically telling them.
"Sir?" The pilot called MC, to get his attention. "What are your orders?"
"Think this through, John. It may not be edited, but that does not mean this couldn't be a trap. If you've got this recording. Think of others ships, also receiving this same broadcast...you're not even listening to me, are you?"
"I always am, Cortana." MC told her, earning a snort of amusement.
"We're going, aren't we?" Cortana asked MC, who smirked underneath his helmet. "Fine, I've already booked the coordinates. All we have to do is follow them, and BAM, we're there."
"Thanks, Cortana." MC told her.
"Thank me, if we get out alive."
