A/N: 100 Drabbleistic Oneshots describing the bond between Master Chief (John) and Cortana. Friends, Lovers, Partners, makes no difference.
Disclaimer: Halo and all it's characters belong to Bungie/Microsoft(unsure if MS owns Bungie)
Prompt: 63. Do Not Disturb
Takes Place: Sometime during Halo2 or 3, slightly AU due to the fact that I doubt this will happen in H3.
Cortana shook her digital head. Once again, someone was trying to get into Chief's quarters, And once again, whoever it was walked away with a burned palm. She huffed, didn't anyone understand the meaning of "do not disturb"?! Cursing up and down in various languages, both Human and Covenant, she faded away from the Holo-Pad in John's room, reappearing in Commander Miranda Keyes' quarters. The young woman jumped as Cortana cleared her throat- or at least, made the sound like she was- right palm showing it's door handle shaped burn mark. Cortana glared at the young commander, fixing her with a red eyed gaze.
"Chief has told you, he is not to be disturbed. Have anyone try to wake him before we arrive at our destination, and you will suffer worse than a burn on your palm." Cortana faded away from Miranda's view, reappearing in John's room. She buffed up the security on the door, tapped into the security camera's in the hallway, then settled down to watch John get a decent night's rest.
About bloody time to.
