Chapter 8
UNSC Infinity, Meeting Room.
Captain Lasky, Masterchief, Sarah palmer and along with the other high rankning UNSC military personnels meet each other as the Map hologram showing Earth's globe on the table, Roland informed them as red dots blinking around Earth that where the unknown enemies are...or known as the "Lunarians".
"The Lunarians deployed many camps on africa, south america, europe and some parts of north america." Said Roland. "Most of them deployed on Asia, However, I'm picking up some blurry signals from hidden underground UNSC Bases."
"We have scattered pelicans all across the globe hoping to find some survivors out there." Exclaimed Masterchief. "But the lunarians out there...are too many."
"Chief's right." Said the other High-Ranking soldier. "They may appear in hundred to a thousands, Those survivors have been waiting for us."
At this moment, Captain Lasky sighted as he put his two palms at the desk, looking Earth.
"We don't have much time left." Lasky sighted.
Under the deep forests of South America.
Reisen 2 and her companion, Haruka, were still walking pass through the deep jungle, the two rabbits are exhausted and tired for walking, luckily, they found a cabin, made out of wood, However, they stopped their tracks as a plasma bolt shot past flew them.
"You idiot!" a voice shouted from inside the cabin. "That's our troops!"
"Sorry, I didn't knew it."
Moments later, A lunarian soldier stood out of the cabin and let the two rabbits inside.
"Greetings, I'm trooper Hiro Shimumatsu, Patrol leader and we come from camp 63" he introduced. "Are you two from Camp 52?"
"Y-yes." Reisen answered. "But it was captured by human guerilla forces, we were the only two survivors left...I guess."
"I see, just as I expected." Hiro rubbed his chin. "So this why we lost contact since two days ago, Soon we leave this area before some humans arrived."
Lunar Capital, Tsukuyomi's Chamber.
Princess Toyohime stepped inside the chamber of the Moon Emperor as she kneeled to him.
"My Emperor, I have a word with you." She asked.
"Go on."
"Why do we have to invade Earth to wipe out the Humans?" She questioned. "I mean...That the humans are capable to have peace and mercy, Then we should have to-"
"Commence peace?" He interrupted. "Ha! The Humans are nothing more than impure weaklings! at least that they are impure beings."
"B-But weaklings?" She exclaimed. "I mean, look at them! the humans have fought unbeatable odds that we've never encountered, Your Emperor, We should need to end this crusade before that they would call reinforcements and destroy us!"
Then the hall silenced.
"Please Milord, For the sake of our people, our future, our race and-"
"SILENCE!" Tsukuyomi shouted as Toyohime stood in schock and silence.
"How dare you to deny my orders." He said in a cold tone as he stood up and pointed his finger towards her. "Watatsuki no Toyohime, for now on, you are a Traitor of shame, for trying to deny my orders, Guards!"
Then the guards came in.
"Take this woman away from me and send her to the dungeon." He said in a harsh voice.
"Y-Yes sir."
At this moment, Toyohime got her arms, dragged by the Royal Elite Guards.
"B-But your highness! Youre making a grave mistake!" She shouted. "Our People and our entire race will die in this forsaken war!"
But he didn't listen.
"Your Highness! please list-"
Before she would finish her sentence, the door shuts, leaving a loud bang.
"Foolish princess." The Emperor chuckled evily.
However, The emperor called out as a guard came in and spoke the orders.
"Arrest Princess Yorihime?" The Guard explained. "Your highness, are you sure about this?"
"Of course." He said while he stroked his beard. "What if she knows about, that her sister got under arrested, she will endangered us, So please, sent this message to the supreme commander on earth."
"H-Hai Milord." He said while leaving a bowand left the chamber.
Meanwhile, at the damaged MAC Platform.
Dozens of UNSC Pioneers, sent by UNSC Infinity, were repairing the Comms and the Platform, Suddenly, One of the pioneers found someting unexpected on the computer.
"Sir, The radar detected something, From the edge of the main solar system."
"Then what is is?" The other said.
"Slipspace rupture, 500.000 Miles from Pluto."
*Halo 4: To Galaxy theme music*
At the edge of the Main Solar system, Two slipspace portals opened up as two UNSC Hallycon cruiser ships arrived.
"Captain Akahito, We've received a message from the MAC Platform from Earth." Said the ship AI.
"It seems that they needed help." Noted a Japanese UNSC Captain. "Even on Mars too, Send UNSC Crusher to Mars to investigate."
