Dan heard the wailing of alarms and the room was flooded in red. He looked at his holo-pad and saw the three large Covenant ships closing in. He knew he had to act now, so he grabbed his gear and ran right out of his room. Pace shortly came out of the door neighboring his and ran after Dan. The ship repeatedly from Covenant fire, sending the troopers to the floor a couple of times. Dan and Pace soon arrived at the escape pod area, where Tozoa was already waiting for them.

"Come on, you two! Into the-" Tozoa was cut off by a large quake that toppled all three of them over.

"This ship's not gonna last much longer!" Tozoa yelled, regaining his bearings. Pace, Tozoa and Dan all leapt into the pod, and soon took off. After a minute or so, Dan looked back at the ship and saw it explode into a bright blue ball.

"Havana, here we come," Dan sighed under his breath.

"Ok, so can someone kindly tell me, WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED!" Pace screamed "you know what? Fuck it, we are going to Havana, that's all we need to know, and whatever just attacked that ship SURE as hell just died." Pace said looking back at the ship that was now moving outward in pieces like its own little universe...

Tozoa looked at his mission clock as he put the last piece of armor on, his helmet, 0 hundred hours, only twelve hours ago had Tozoa awoken, he was about to understand everything. The pod jarred and jerked as it entered Havana's atmosphere, Tozoa's mission clock changed to 534, Time zones he thought, The pod jerked hard to the left and Tozoa remained still as Pace and Dan stumbled to the right a bit, Tozoa looked up at them. "If I find something out, and I snap, you need to run" he said sincerely, "If I can't be stopped, be destroyed, if I find out my full capability..." Tozoa was cut off "UNSC drop pod from the Intent of Main what is your crew?" a voice said over the speaker "This is general first class Carter Cortez" Tozoa pressed the button to reply "This is Tozoa, Pace, and Dan, Two ODST's and an Android..." Tozoa said coldly "T-T-Tozoa? You're alive!" Carter asked. "Yes, and I want answers." Tozoa replied. As the landing shield on the drop pod raised, Dan began to wonder what Tozoa meant by what he had just said. After a few seconds, he decided he needed to watch Tozoa; just in case something happened.

"Okay, we're going down in 10, 9, 8..." Tozoa announced without turning.

"Ever been to Havana before?" Pace asked while Tozoa was still counting down.

"No, never. But I bet its one helluva place if it's so important that we get there," Dan replied.

"2, 1, impact!" The ship landed; roughly, but safely; onto a small area of Havanian land. Tozoa, Pace and Dan all got out of the pod, unlocked the safety switches on their weapons and went onward.

"Watch out you guys, this place is like the wild east, out of whatever-the-hell you read about in the cowboy books." Pace said

"There is someone ready to shoot you behind every corn-"

"Hold up kids" a rather rough looking man said as he stepped out of an ally, with two goons behind him

"See what I mean" Pace said

"What is this all about" asked Tozoa

"we just want yous toys" one of the goons said while reaching at Dan's gun, but in one swift motion Dan drew his side arm and left the first goon dead with one bullet right between his eyes. Pace shot one burst into the leader of the group and dispatched him. Tozoa clapped the last man's head between his larger than life hands and left what used to be his face in a rather red mess. "Well...were gonna need some money if we are going to get around Havana." Pace said while going though one of the man's pockets...
