Everyone but David: What?
Ranger24: Please tell me some of you have played halo before!
Chapter 3: I need a weapon.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
As soon as they left the shuttle they were meet with wild appaluse from the marines and naval personel. Suddenly Cloud's motion tracker flickerd. He looked and saw three camera drones. He sighed the whispered to Barret.
Cloud: You told me there wouldn't be any camera's.
Barret: You told me you were going to wear something nice.
Cloud took a look at his armor then looked at Barret.
Barret: Folks need hero's Cloud. It gives them hope. So smile. While we still got something to smile about.
They walked up to the large doors in front of them and Barret checked his hair as the marine guards saluted and stepped aside.
Mean while on high chariety.
Roxas, Lurtz, and the Urkhia stepped through the large doors leading to the entire city on either side of the road stood the honor guard nobodies behind them stood hundreds of jeering Dusks and ninja's. As they walked forward Roxas could her what a large group of them were chanting.
Dusk 1/Dusk 2/ Dusk 3: Her-i-tic! Her-i-tic!
He came to the edge of the platform. Roxas then gazed upon the whole of the castle that never was. Lurtz smirked. As Roxas was lead to several energy restraints Lurtz's smirk broadened.
Lurtz: You've drawn quite a crowd.
Roxas: If they came to hear me beg they will be disapointed.
Lurtz: Are you sure?
Suddenly pain lanced from Roxas's arms as fire lept from the restrains. He gritted his teeth in pain. The crowd Roared in apporval.
Back at Cario.
The four heros made there forwards across the stations command center. Hundreds of naval personel loosed cheers of excitment at the sight of them. Barret and Chief were in front with Neji and Zuko iin the rear. Soon they reached the main view screen. There stood the commander of the entire fleet Adrimal Bryan Griffen. A dog. Close by Cloud could see the adoptive daughter of captain Uno. Commander Juniper Lee Uno. She was rumuored to be just as fearsome as her father in a fight. Behind them were four of the last sourving SOLDIERS. Ranger-024, David-007, ChibiSkitty-donna- 033, and Daxo-044. THe other surving spartans were still getting new mark six battle suits.
As they approached Bryan all four snapped to salute. Bryan returned the salute his face showing no emotion.
Bryan: Gentlemen we're lucky to have you all back.
An aid walked up to him and whispered something into his ear. He he turned to face a holo tank next to the view screen.
Bryan: Go ahead Areith.
The tank warmed and Areith flashed to life. She looked the same as ever.
Areith: Another whisper sir near Ioa. We have probes in route.
Bryan sighed.
Bryan: I apologize but we're going to have to make this quick.
He turned around to another toon holding a tray of medals. Areith looked at the marines and Cloud she smiled.
Areith: You look nice.
Cloud/ Barret/ Neji/ Zuko: Thank you.
They looked at eachother confused. Not one of them knew whom she had been speaking to. Junpier walked over to join them representing her adoptive father. Bryan turned around a medal in his hands.
Bryan: Sergean Major Barret Wallace. The colinal cross is awarded for singular acts of daring and devotion. For a solider of the united toon space corp...
Back at the castle that never was.
Lurtz: There can be no greater heresy! Let him be an example to all who would break our organization!
The crowd roared in aproval they were loving this. He looked at his subordinates who were on either side of Roxas.
Lurtz: Now!
The urks riped of Roxas chest plate.
Back at the Cairo.
Bryan: SOLIDER 117 Cloud. There is little that we can give you other then the thanks of all toons across the galaxy. But we still award you with the legion of honor.
Cloud accepted the medal and put it in his pocket. He had recieved every medal except the P.O.W medal but it wasn't just for him it was for all of his SOLIDER brethern.
Back at The castle that never was.
A commander elite nobody in white armor with flaming red hair glared at the unyelding prophets. His name is Axel.
Axel: This is to far. It is not his fault utterly even our finest warriors were bested by the demon!
Maleficent: He failed in his duty. He let the ring world be destroyed then he allowed his ship to be captured.
Axel: He is no hertic! He has been loyal to the organization for years!
Rufus: We know that but the people need a scape goat some one to place the blame on.
Maleficent: Someone has to pay.
Rufus: Why do you care even if he was your comander and your friend. You are a nobody. No heart no feelings nothing. Besides we need you to focus on a true threat.
Axel: What?
Rufus: We have a mission for you.
Back at the Cairo.
Brian: Commander Juniper Lee Uno. Your adoptive fathers actions were in keeping with the highest traditions of miltary service. His bravery in the face of imposible odds reflects great credit on himself and the UTSC. The navy has lost one of it's best.
June accepted the medal a single tear in her eye.
Back at the castle that never was.
Roxas's helmet clattered to the ground he was nearly dead but in his mind he knew he was already dead to everyone there. He was hanging from his manacles his skin scorched. His almost naked body was only covered with a loin cloth covering his privates.
Out of the ground came a long brand. On it's blazing tip was the mark all warriors feared. The mark of shame. Lurtz picked it up grining the crowd was deathly silent. Lurtz slamed it into Roxas chest right over where the heart would be.
Roxas's eye's shot open! The pain was beyond anything he had yet experinced. His eye's watered. He lifted his head up into the air and loosed a terrible agonized wail of pain. As the cruel brand burned the symbol into his skin.
Back at Cairo.
Alarms blared to alert. Everyone jumped slightly while Areith looked at the admiral.
Areith: Slipspace ruptures directly off our battle cluster.
Brian: Show me.
Everyones hearts were now in their throats everyone was on the edge of their seats.
Areith: Fifteen organization captial ships. Holding position just out side the kill zone.
The tactical view screen changed to sho the entire battle cluster on the right side of the screen on the left was the organization fleet. Suddenly eight cruisers, ten frigates, nine destroyers, and two carriers broke from the cluster. All of those ships formed up into a battle group. The lead ship was labled the Black Pearl. Vice admiral Jack Sparrows ship.
Jack Sparrow: This is Admiral Sparrow we are enageing the enemy.
Brian shook his head.
Brian: Negative admiral reform your fleet around the cluster. Create a perimeter.
He turned to face June.
Bryin: Comander get to your ship link up with the fleet.
She noodded.
June: Yes sir.
He then turned to Areith.
Bryan: You have the MAC gun Areith. As soon as they come in range open up.
Areith: Gladly.
As she vainshed Bryan turned around to the veiw screen and scratched his chin.
Brian: Somethings not right. The fleet that destroyed Reach was fifty times this size.
Suddenly ensign Stewie Griffen sat up.
Stewie: Sir additional contacts. Boarding craft and lots of them!
Brian cursed under his breath.
Brian: Their trying to bring or MAC guns offline. Give their capital ships a straight shot at earth!
He turned to face Cloud, Barret, Ranger, David, Daxo, and ChibiSkitty-donna, Zuko, and Neji.
Brian: Gentlemen and (ladies)! Defend this station!
Cloud: Yes sir!
He then noticed none of them had a weapon. He turned to Barret.
Cloud: We need guns.
Barret smirked.
Barret: Right this way.
The eight of them made their way off the bridge as all throughout the station the marines, technicains, and naval personel prepared themselves for battle. The battle for earth was on.
