Isunusi
Halo, Log I. -The Elite Way
'I know I am smaller then most, but that doesn't mean I cannot fight.' I thought to myself as I finished healing another Sangheili, a swordsman this time.
He was injured by the infamous demon, this one didn't stand a chance, none of them did.
I looked around the room, there were dozens of them that had been injured by either the demon or the demons allies, I sighed in response to this sight, each week a new group is brought in to be healed.
"You're finished, though it will be impossible to wield an energy sword after this for three months." I said leaving the Sangheili, the others had been healed already as well, so I left the room hoping I didn't see or hear more coming in.
I looked around the halls... nothing, good.
I walked down the main hall to the cells, I was going to give the humans here their rations, they might be planned for execution but that doesn't mean they don't get any food. "Alright, you're food is here" I said pushing in a hover table with some plates of food.
I walked to the control pannel where an elite stood.
"Open middle hole on cell numbers, one, two, four, five, and six, three has been taken for termination already." He agreed and opened these small circular holes in the force field and I slid their plates in.
I pushed the hover table back outside and stored it into the wall's closet.
I turned back into the cell room, I was to wait for them to finish, those plates are hover discs as well, if those humans were smart enough they could use them to reverse the force field, but their not trained in reverse plasma gravity.
I was in too deep thought to realize someone came up behind me.
"Ah Kamuee, how nice of you to stop by." I said, never liked him, he was always a pain.
"Isunusi, I see you've already tended to these humans..." He walked infront of me, his two guards were close behind us.
He sighed. "I do not understand why you insist on keeping these humans well, they are small and weak little things. They are not worth the time." He said.
"Well, I understand where your coming from Kamuee, but I see the importance in not turning into a brute. These humans as well as any other Sangheili deserve some kind of care, in this state they can not take care of themselves." I spat back at him.
He turned back to me.
"I have seen your messages and I have only one question; why do you want to take them to your infirmary?" He asked, he was taller then me, a lot taller so intimidation was even easier but I do not let intimidation scare me.
"Same as always general, they need care, they could die in here!" I pointed to the cells.
"These things are designed to keep Covenant traitors! Not support human life!" I tried to reason with him.
"That's the good part though, because humans can not live in our conditions they suffer, the entire point of being locked up" He looked around the cell rooms again, the humans had coughed and were breathing harshly, sure signs of illness.
"I want to take them to my infirmary to check up on them.. The prophets said execution by dishonor, not death by atmosphere!" He growled.
"True..." He stood there looking at the humans, detailing each part of their being.
"You will take them tomorrow, twice a week you will treat them to your medical care and it will be limited." He said, I nodded in agreement.
"They are your responsibility! Do not make me regret my decision." He sighed and took a breath.
"Ensure they live long enough for us to bring them to execution. After the hieratic, they will be dead, so don't get to attached." He said storming out of the room.
As soon as I knew he was gone I smiled and relaxed.
"I am in command of these humans now, you can go." He tilted his head.
"General Kamuee had given me full responsibility of these humans that means I own them." He nodded and left the room.
I walked to one of the cells, said he was an admiral, leader of this squad.
I crouched down to his level, he was sitting on the floor.
"Admiral, my name is-" "I don't care who you are" He said firmly. "-Isunusi, I'll be your caretaker. You'll be at the infirmary for your twice a week check up tomorrow afternoon and don't worry, I'm not harsh and cruel like the others." I said standing up now.
"Are you listening?" I asked calmly.
No answer.
"I'm the one who's going to ensure you live, shouldn't you be somewhat happy to know your not going die by being poisoned?"I asked, yet to no prevail, I guess I understand the situation and their feelings on the subject though...
I stood up straight.
"Well then Admiral Keys I'm afraid you're not going to like your stay, I was planning on giving you and your squad a full room, but I guess that won't be needed now will it?" I said hands on my hips.
He looked up to me, "You wouldn't do that" He said tilting his hat down again covering half his face.
"You want to bet on it?" I asked walking to the other side of the force field, I clicked a few buttons on the keypad and the force field disappeared.
"I know your not as strong as me so I am not afraid, but I do know that your a lot smarter then the others say, Admiral you will be moved to my sector tomorrow afternoon after your weekly checkup." I said.
"Now try and sleep, until tomorrow you won't be fully under my control, tomorrow I take all responsibility of you and you're squad, I will own whatever you do so please don't do anything drastic it'll only get you and I into trouble." I said closing the force field again.
He was just looking at me as I walked over to the control pannel, it's used for major things, like shutting down the entire room which could hurt me severely...
I sat down opening a small bag and picked out a small piece of Yucu, a small sweet little white thing, I loved them.
I was able to eat a few before T'vvae came in.
I tied the top and tied it to my belt standing up now I put my hand over my heart and bowed with supposed respect but in all honest, none at all.
"T'vvae sir! What brings you here?" I asked standing back up, T'vvae was a very violent man, always looking for away to kill someone, mostly humans, so he'll be checking to see if these humans have done anything his superiors have on the black list.
"For the same, who are these humans?" He took off his gloves, usually meaning he just got back from some battle and he won or he just killed some other human, either way it still means something bad for my humans. "Admiral and his squad. Were captured only two weeks ago." I said, hoping he's content in killing this day.
He just made a short hum, and walked to me.
"Dear Isunusi, I am in search of someone, they called him Admiral Keyes, do you know him?" He asked, from this I guess he hasn't read the logs of my studies, which is good.
"N-no, this is Admiral Davidson, Admiral Keyes? I have heard that name before." I said pretending to think.
"But I am unsure of his whereabouts at this moment, I can search them up after Gajje removes me from my post." I said.
"Gajje? Very well, you do that for me will you? He got a 7./5 on the black list, my superiors want him dead as soon as possible" He said.
I nodded, "I shall, after I leave my post I shall search the database for Admiral Keyes, I'll inform you of his location as soon as I get it." I said, he turned around and left the room, I let out a sigh I was holding in.
"You lied." A human said, not Keyes some other marine.
"That I did, that I did.." I said walking to his cell.
"You lied that Keyes was here, why'd you do that? Couldn't you get in trouble or.. something?" He asked.
"How very observing, I could but since tomorrow I will have each and every one of you in my possession it does not matter. After that time, he cannot say anything." I said as I spotted a design on his upper arm.
"What's that?" I asked crouching down pointing to the marking, we was also leaning on the wall near the cells force field, so I was almost eye to eye level with him.
"That? That's what we call a tattoo, usually get one for something or someone we have." He said, the marking spelled out something but I can't read the humans writing very well.
"What does it say?" I tried reading it.
"Says Carol my girl back home." He said smiling.
"Your girl back home? I'm sorry I don't under- oh.. Ah. You have someone who cares for you named Carol back where you're from, I see.." I said thinking about it, human slang is rather strange.
"Where is she? I mean, is she a part of the UNSC solders?" I asked, completely interested now.
"Nah, she's on Earth, back at my real home." He replied.
"So, what do they call you?" I smiled, "I'm Isunusi, you can call me Isu or Sun, either one." I said.
"Okay Isu, why'd you take us in?" He looked up at me finally.
"I believe no matter our species we should get along, but from this war I guess that's impossible, but at least I can show some support for you and my people at the same time by ensuring that you live as long as you can and comfortably, hopefully" I answered in the most detailed manner I could without sounding completely insane.
"Quite a claim Isu, so how goes it?" He leaned over to me.
"Slowly and harshly, I'm treated badly because I have spared humans under my sword, but I did it with good reason. It is not honorable to kill an opponent without a weapon... oh... what do you humans call it..? Oh.." I thought about it but couldn't grasp it.
"Going down with your boots on" He smiled and shook his head.. "That's it!" I giggled.
"Such a strange term"
"I'm Kenny, Kenny Jason" He introduced himself finally.
"I'd shake your hand but sorry, this force field only causes mild burns." I giggled.
"I can't open it either, I can't risk someone entering while it is open, so I sould be sorry." I looked around, playfully suspicious of the doors.
"So... Ken-ey... Kenny?" He nodded I got it right.
"What's your rank in this God forsaken war?" He chuckled.
"Didn't know the Covenant said that to, I'm just a normal private, you?" He laughed.
"I'm the only one to use it, makes other humans happy to know they have some kind of familiarity here. I'm to young to be a official Covenant member, I'm just a... doctor, that's what you call it and a fall back, I've been in some battles, not many, like I said I'm just a backup" He looked at me.
"How old are you?" He rubbed the back of his head. "I'm thirty-nine, not old enough to be a Covenant member but if I was back home I would have had a mate by now." I said rolling my eyes.
"Thirty nine? If you were human you'd be noticed as an adult, you'd be old enough to be a general at least!" He said in disbelief.
"What about you? How old are you?" He laughed. "Twenty three" He said.
"To me your age is like saying they recruited a small child." I said.
"Our species count in age is a lot different" I said slightly laughing with him.
"Hey Isu, great to meet you, never thought I'd find a good guy around this place" He said.
"You got lucky! I'm probably the only Sangheili here that will care for you! My mother and father might of, I'm sure my mother would but I'm not sure about my father." I was completely lose talking about that.
"Who are they?" He scratched his neck. "Juni and U'xae, Juni, my mother died a few years ago when you humans broke into the ship and blew it up, U'xae my father died in battle thus, I was transferred when I was ten to the covenant" I said a little on the down side.
"Sorry Isu, my mom's still back on Earth, my dad was marine as well, Captain Jason was his rank, died in cross fire on the covenant ship titled; Lioi 298-55" I smiled, surprised.
"Our father's died in the same place, U'xae died on Lioi 298-55 when it was blown up." I explained my surprise.
"Hey at least our parents got to meet somehow..." I said smiling and he smiled back.
"That's some coincidence" He joked.
"Kenny, I'll leave you be now. Sleep so tomorrow comes faster because tomorrow everything gets better." I said getting up.
"See you Isu." He said as I walked to the control panel.
"I'm leaving now, if anyone enters this room and talks to any of you say that you are under Isunusi's care and all questions go to room 008, goodbye and goodnight." I said walking out the room.
I hope Kenny or Keyes does not say anything that could get me into trouble.
