0035 Hours, September 15, 2555 (Military Calendar)/ Special Spartan Space Craft Call sign "Phoenix", In orbit around Planet ONYX

I sat in one of the passenger seats of the Phoenix. I love this ship. The Phoenix is our special ship designed especially for the five of us Spartans. It was a medium sized ship. It had a room with three Cryo tubes, considering that two people are needed to pilot the ship. There was a weapons room as well. I and the rest of the Spartan IV's had custom weapons created to our liking. It was nice. I don't exactly remember what weapons this ship has equipped, Emily's in charge of that department. The best part was that the Phoenix had it's own shaw-fujikawa drive equipped.

Damn it was early. 12:35 AM. Bryce, Christian and Brady were still in Cryo sleep. Emily was piloting, I was operating other systems, I can't remember, it's too damn early. She eased back. "Alright Kyle, sensors are in order, both engines at 93%, life support at full power."

Good, I thought, I'd better go check on our weapons supply. Everything was intact, I quickly disassembled and reassembled a few weapons out of sheer boredom

Three Hours Later…

"Wake up guys!" I yelled as the cry tubes opened. The Spartan stretched their legs. Brady spat that fluid crap they give us for Cryo sleep. But Brady forgot to remove his helmet.

"Aww Dammit!" Brady yelled as he removed his helmet and wiped it off the inside of his visor. Bryce and Christian swallowed.

"Alright everyone, head for the bridge for briefing." I shouted. We headed in as everyone gathered around me. "Ok, so the plan is we'll split into two groups, I'm mixing it up a bit. Leading the ground op will be Brady-"

"Hell yeah!"

"Emily."

"Sweet."

"And me, Christian and Bryce, you two will be here in the Phoenix, and I'll contact you for pick up. Everyone understand?" I asked.

"Sir, yes sir!" They replied.

We got to the planet surface when Emily, Brady and I were dropped off in the Warthog we were given. So we started driving. We drove for at least 2 hours and we noticed things, things moving. We weren't alone. My instinct kicked in as I shot the turret at a shadow, a small robot dropped down. "Gun it Emily!" I said as what looked like thousands of those robots emerged. We drove and the warthog flipped into a huge gorge. We saw four other Spartans shooting those things.

"Hey are those?-"

"Yep, Emily, Brady, we've found our Spartans." I said.

But where's the rest of them?…

0335 Hours September 15, 2555 (Military Calendar)/ Sol System, Planet Earth, UNSC Base in Seattle WA.

I laid back in my Chair, I had been reassigned to a base in Seattle. It was a base run by the Elites and some Grunts, Yagip requested that I could move here with him. He was asleep in his chair, his Needler on the ground, Behind me was his Leader, an Elite named Usla Falam, he was a Major. His red armor shined brightly. It was the three of us, a trio forever. This sucked.

They had several other grunts that had survived in the Human- Covenant war. A golden armor clad elite walked up to our station, he looked at Usla. "Greetings Usla, how is the Patrol?" The elite shot me an evil look. I was pissed.

I took out my M6D. "You have something to say to me? I'll take you on!" I shouted impatiently

"How dare you threaten me like that!" The elite replied. Usla Backed up and Yagip woke up and jumped back.

"It's not a threat, it's a promise." I replied.

A white armored elite stepped in, he was in charge here. "Stop it, if you two wish to fight, do it officially, in a duel." He said.
"Very well, human, you and me, now, no weapons, hand to hand." The gold one said.

I looked at him, elites and grunts surrounded us, Usla and Yagip watched uneasily. "I will crush you!" He yelled as he swung his fist. I jumped and swung back. He laughed and kicked. I fell to the ground.

"Son of a-" I was stopped by a foot crushing into my stomach.

"Now die!" he shouted victoriously. I grabbed his ankle and squeezed hard. He fell back and laughed as he turned invisible. I stood up and looked around carefully.

I was knocked down, and again as I got up. This kept happening until I was bleeding and had some broken bones. I stood up but was not knocked over. I looked around and closed my eyes. I sensed some breathing and I made a roundhouse kick. He fell to the ground. I jumped and began choking him. I continued for five minutes until the breathing stopped. I stood victorious.

As I walked away Usla and Yagip followed me. Yagip smiled and Usla gave a positive click of his mandibles.

I had some respect.

0035 September 15, 2555, planet ONYX.

John jumped out of the hunk of ship. "Chief, I'm getting a reading from three suits of MJOLNIR armor. Let's follow it." Cortana insisted. John followed until he found saw sentinel bodies everywhere. He saw three Spartans, two in Mark VI, Linda and Fred. And a Mark V, Kelley. "Spartans!" John yelled.

"Chief!" they all yelled.

"What are you guys doing here?" He asked.

"The Dyson Sphere… Collapsed… Spartan III's… Halsey… Sentinel attack… Everyone dead…" Kelley said, her Mark V was extremely damaged, some parts were missing, she could speak clearly but the armor would break it up.

"Slow down Kelley." John said.

"We have a lot to tell command." Fred said.

Suddenly many sentinels started to flood the gorge they were in. They started blasting with the weapons they had.

John caught a warthog flipping over in the corner of his eyes.

Looks like backup is here…
