//: File to delete after file close, unless proper command code is used //

//: Hey Andrew, been a long time. I just hope your doing okay out there, you know I worry about you everyday. Your child's been kicking a lot lately; maybe he knows his daddy isn't around. The doctor says He's due any day now. I hope you'll come home soon. I've told you time and time again to retire like I did but you just wont. . .I don't blame you. The Covenant are ruthless I know but I cant see why everyone has to fight them. Why can we try and make peace or something? But I bug you with this all the time so I guess I wont this time. I love Andrew. I do and always will. Please come home after this mission. I can wait Five Months and if your not home by the time they assured me then so help me god the UNSCDF will have a new war on it's hands! Feet first into hell. . .that's what you do. But please, don't get hurt. I couldn't bare it if you were killed or hurt to bad, and it would be horrible on the baby. Before you send a message to me saying I shouldn't use UNSC secure channels to send you messages I want you to know this is my last message for some time. I'm heading to the hospital after I send this, I'm fine and so's the baby, don't worry. I do hope these colonists get the help they need and protection you and the Relic's providing. I heard it's been slightly colonized for years but now it's actually being made into an entire world colony, stead of one small city and a handful of towns/villages. Good luck soldier. I love you.

You're loving wife,

Elizabeth.

The A.I read this message with a certain loathing. Senya had been alive for two years. She was a personal A.I assigned to the UNSC destroyer Relic. It was a peculiar ship indeed. Whilst it wasn't very old, it was designed strange. It resembled a mixture of ships like Marathon class cruisers and a UNSC Frigate. It was five times the size of a normal frigate and resembled one closely, only a lot bigger and a bit more bloated. The Marathon-class parts were the glass viewing front of its main bridge and one of its large engines. It had a thousand archer missiles, twelve MAC rounds for it's three cannons, One Hundred Pelicans, Fifty Albatross's and ten LongSword fighters. The shop was large but easy enough to maneuver but could not fly through a planets atmosphere and still be usable. The ship had two A.I's, Senya was it's first. She always questioned the close relation between a Smart A.I and a human being. She, had deleted Riemann Matrix's rampancy fail safe long ago, unknown to everyone. She was efficient and perfect. She did not need replacing or repair in anyway.

Her holographic avatar resembled a woman in a bikini. None of the crew minded. Her avatar was what kept some of the Male Marines sane on long Slipspace jumps. Her bikini's coding (1's & 0's) was always changing colors, whilst her body remain the same color with 1's and 0' streaming down it, the color Light blue. She liked the form because it got her attention, and besides, she wasn't in her holoform often. She had taken a liking to an ODST named Andrew Faulkner. He was strong tough and married. The other A.I the ship had been one assigned to be with Andrew on his missions that would require him to decrypt or interact with Covenant tech. This A.I resembled a gold human with bright gold wings. Not an angel but still pretty. He had been an experiment by ONI to make some ODST's as good Spartan-II's. Andrews combat suit was a bit thicker with more advanced technology that could house an A.I, of course it was top-secret tech, and the only one of it's kind. Flay, the A.I, was created from a flash cloned brain of Andrew, something that had been done before and had been successful with an A.I named Cortana.

Flay and Andrew, a perfect pair. Cracking jokes, exchanging ideas, and arguing which was more handsome, regardless of the fact they looked alike. Two smart A.I's in one ship. It was wonderful; one could man weapons while other navigates, perfect for war. She put in the code and allowed the file to be sent to Andrew Personal Computer in his quarters. A light blinked in her little virtual world. The captain. She appeared on her holotank next to Captain Crane. "Senya, are we ready to jump?"

"Yes captain, all systems appear functional, course set, ETA, a half hour." The Relic had a prototype Slipspace drive that allowed for quicker jumps, the only draw back was it left the ships main power offline for about twenty minutes, which is where the large amount of Auxiliary power would come in to play, powering the ship until it had enough juice to go one it's own.

The ship lurched forward. Everything was running well.

Twenty Minutes Later.

The ship shook and stopped. It flew out of slipspace right past a large object. A Covenant ship. The ship slammed forward into slipspace again. This time energy was overloading in some parts of the ship. A small explosion went off in a Hallway on deck 2-B, killing three men and wound eight. The ship came out of slipspace again. They were out for half a mila second, a hundred miles away from a sun. The ship entered slipspace, still intact. The power ruptured more areas and a radiation spike went up from the engine room. The Slipspace engines had been given an overload of power. The ship came out again, this time right in front of a small fleet of ships. Covenant ones. The Covenant on board had detected them and saw the spikes in radiation in several sectors of space not very far apart, one was near a star, and where a Covenant Cruiser had apparently been before burning, they had followed the humans into a sun.

The Relic lurched forward again. This time the kept going until they emerged above the colony world, Genteer. This time when the came out they came out to a sudden stop. A lot of crew members lurched forward off their feet and landed on the ground. Senya was ordered to check out the ship. She assed the damage and gave the report to the Captain. A half-hour later power returned and they contact the person in charge of the Colony Effort. A light fizzled deep in the sea of Zero's and one's as Flay appeared before Senya. He smirked at her. And in a mocking tone he said, "We know something they don't know."
