Spook 13's Atonement

Hello everyone. Please have a nice read, first story on this so please no flame!

Drake's POV

"Wake up Spook, you got a visitor." The Warden said as he passed my cell.

"Again? Is it another Clean Up Job Ward? Cause the last one didn't go so well." He chuckled.

"Heck if I know. I'll tell ya one thing though." I went up to the shield door.

"What is that?" He looked back at me flashing a toothy grin.

"She's a real looker, I bet she'd be good around a b-"

"I get it!" He just chuckled more continuing his walk.

'Why am I the guy stuck in a prison with a perverted Warden?!' I thought getting my orange jumpsuit on.

Cris's POV

I sat down at the table, spreading them out across the table. The buzzer rang and 6 Heavily Armed Guards walked through the Gate with a man in an orange Jumpsuit in the middle.

'Just how dangerous is this guy?'

They opened up and the man showed himself.

He was at least 5ft 10, but the thing that caught me most was his White Hair, Red Eyes, and an Extreme long Scar running across his left eye.

"Uh miss?" I snapped out of the stare and noticed he had sat down and had all 6 Guards with their guns pointed at his back.

"Oh sorry. Boys can you please un cuff him?" They un latched the cuffs keeping the guns pointed at his back and head.

"Thank you. Now may I please ask as to why your here?" I pulled out the mission files from my briefcase handing them over to him.

"I trust you've heard of the Destruction of Shield World Requiem?" He nodded looking through the file.

"The UNSC Infinity has found another Shield World but is having trouble taking down the Covenant on that Shield World. Along wi-"

"You want me to work for the UNSC and help take down some Covenant?" I nodded.

"How many years will be taken off my sentence?"

"At least 50 years for a 3 year tour. That is, if you live through the tour." I said blankly. He handed me the case files latching the cuffs back onto his wrists.

"To low, find someone else to do it. Guards." I just starred dazed at him. 'He's serving a 150 year sentence for several huge charges but says 50 years is to little?'

"I've been on 3 tours to get my 450 year sentence down to 150. My price is 125 years off or I walk." I stood from my chair.

"You don't get to make the decisions here! Your in a UNSC Prison for Christ sakes and your saying those kinds of terms?! I could just make you come along and have you not get any years off!" I yelled out.

He turned to me with a toothy grin. "You do that and there's no guarantee that the team I would be assigned to would live and also theirs a law against making prisoners risk their lives with no consent. So if you try I will get my lawyer and I could walk free." He raised his brows. "And ain't I to big of an Asset to walk free with no strings pulling me back into the fold?"

'He certainly ain't new to this.'

"I-I'll make the call." He nodded taking his seat again as I left the room calling Admiral Hood.

Drake's POV

As the brunette left the room I felt one of the guards nudge his gun against me.

"Try that again and I will break your neck before you could say "Fire" got it?"

I turned around and saw one of them quickly run to the back of the group.

'Thats what I thought.' The lady walked back into the room throwing her phone across the table. I picked it up and held it to my ear.

"Hello, Spook it's been a while." 'Dear lord I should have known that Admiral Hood would be behind this.'

"Say hows your eye? I hope its healed."

"Yeah it's healed, no thanks to that dang Elite."

"True, so I heard you wanted a better deal than the one offered? I must say 50 years off your current sentence is quite an offer for the charges on you." I laughed.

"You think I'll go for that? You'd have more luck finding a snowball in hell!" I felt a rifles barrel pressed against the back of my head.

"True, then how about all 150 off?" My eyes widened at the words.

"What's the catch Hood?"

"You get re-enlisted, you serve a nonstop tour on the Infinity, you stay enlisted for as long as your needed"

"Doesn't sound to bad."

"and get the cover of a ONI Section 1 Desk Officer to cover up any suspicion." My blood boiled on that note.

"The rest is ok but the last part…I'd sooner shoot myself then get that kind of cover."

"Ha. The last part is no joke, and I know your dead set Christian so you wouldn't kill yourself. Thats the deal take it or leave it Spook." I sighed knowing that he had me cornered.

'Get out scot free and serve again or try and get the years taken off 10 at a time?'

"You got a deal Hood. When do I depart?"

"Right now."

"Wha-?!" A sudden pain erupted from the back of my head turning my vision to black and making me loose consciousness.

Sometime later.

I woke to a sudden pain on the back of my head. I clutched the spot but noticed I was laying on a cot in a enclosed room with one window.

"Attention all crew members, we will be arriving at the UNSC Infinity shortly. Be sure to report to shuttle launch before that happens. That is all." A man said through the speaker systems in the room.

I looked out the window and saw nothing but space. "Hood you are so going to pay for this!"
