Dear Sergeant Samson Jefferson,

Unlike your comrades, you actually have a standing in the UNSC. You were an ODST, if my records aren't mistaken, and an extremely talented technician. However, you fought in a rather traumatic battle, which broke you mentally. You were so broken that you refused medical treatment and were sold off to Project Freelancer. What happened to you was an injustice that should be reprimanded at one, and I happen to be someone in the position of helping you.

If you continue down the path you are currently traveling, you will die. That was not a threat. As it stands now, there is no hope of you ever returning to a proper civilian life. If you willingly turn yourself over, I will do all I can to get you the proper treatment. You would finally be able to retire. I understand if you're one of the types who would prefer to fight until his demise, but, if you change your allegiance, I would ensure that you are remembered as the war hero you deserve to be.

Consider your options.

Sincerely yours,

Malcolm Hargrove, Oversight Subcommittee Chairman

Listen here, you damn dirty blue! Everything about you just screams blue! You're fancy words, your involvement in Freelancer, Hell, the fact that you're a greedy son of a bitch trying to kill off thousands of people seals the horrid blue deal! There's no such thing as a good blue, but I know damn well that you're the worst of the worst kind of blue!

Sure, maybe my military career was a lie! Maybe it was all for nothing. But this planet is full of people who need heros, and if I can be that for them, then maybe, just maybe, it will all have been worth it. I might not go down as a hero in the eyes of the UNSC or whatever you plan on doing, but at least I'll be remembered by these people here, the forgotten, the oppressed. And in my book, that's what being a hero is all about.

So stop trying to bargain with me! There's nothing you have that I want. You're already trying to kill Grif, and he told me about that letter you send him and his refusal, so there's no chance of you bargaining not to kill Grif! Serves you right, thinking you could get Grif to actually do something! That lazy, good for nothing-Dammit, Grif!

Hope you're ready to be Sarge'd!

Col. Sarge
