On the planet, Reach a Spartan was on standby. Intel came there was going to be a major attack on the world by unknown forces. It could be insurgents, Covenant or maybe some unearth Forerunner that isn't so friendly to humans. He wasn't sure what he did know this was going to be a big one, and Reach would fall if the UNSC did not stop the attack. "spartan 106 report to the briefing room along with echo unit" that was him and he knew it was beginning of the end. At the briefing, the Spartan 106 right next to him was a UNSC commando unit dubbed echo. These guys were trained to fight alongside Spartans doesn't mean however they get along so well. The corneal came in, and the briefing began. "As you all have heard something big is coming to this planet we aren't sure what but it's arrived."
"what is the situation sure?" said the leader of Echo unit "just recently a major comm relay went out, Noble team was already deployed to deal with it."
"If so why need this guy and us"? The Spartan knew the unit leader meant him. Being a Spartan has not earned him a good reputation even more so since he always comes back alone. 'Sinner' was the nickname he was given. "We just got word Julian was captured by insurgents on the planet; she is an expert on alien technology and was the lead scientist at a discovered Forerunner site on the planet. no word what they want for but this is a situation that needs to be dealt with reach is too important, and Dr. Kendrick's research is vital to the UNSC."
"How so sir?" one of the commandos asked. "It just is, and we will leave it at that." translation it is classified, and we are not allowed to know. "now any other questions?" it was silent at first "dismissed" and everyone saluted to the corneal. As they all walked out on of the commandos mumbled "can't believe we have to get a spartan on this mission and one who always comes back alone." The Spartan was silent he was use to this kind of backtalk. "Come on man even if the rumors were true we all are going to die either way," said the young commando. "Bet we would live another day if he weren't here with us."
"Ok enough I don't like this either but we have a job no gear up and arrive transport in five," all the commandos said in unison "yes sir." the Spartan just starred and went to the armory to load up and prepare for another would be a suicide mission and his last.
