Halo and Solatorobo fanfic

Chapter six,

Alone once again

A/N Guest, you should have seen the chapter 4 before I uploaded it there was mistakes everywhere in it.

Also I have read through this, a bit quickly noticing only a few errors in it, so there may be some that I have missed. Plus I hope it doesn't appear too rushed.

'He was Alone'

Here he was, once again, without any contact with the UNSC stuck in a situation with no way of contact with the other members of his squad. He effectively was isolated. It wouldn't have been bad had he known what it was he was supposed to do, but right now he didn't. To recap his situation he had teleported from his original mission on dropping onto a Covenant carrier into another world and possibly dimension and this world is supposed to be Earth? That? He just didn't know.

The Rookie got up from his bed and looked out the port hole that was located on the same wall as his bed was next to. He saw the sea of clouds underneath the ship go by as the ship sped through the air towards their destination which was to meet the Kurvaz, and he was going to be asked questions and he was to answer to them. He didn't know whether or not he should, one way is that if he did, he would be able to get friendly with him as he was complying with them but, it would most likely get him in trouble for breaching military protocols. And the other option is that he does not answer their questions he will not get on their good side he could drive away potential allies but not breach protocols. It was a tough decision for him to make.

As he stared out the port hole, he noticed a yellow blip on his radar to which he turned around and looked at the doorway to his room and saw the small cat from earlier looking straight back at him with a surprised look on her face. He signed and turn around and looked at the port hole again.

(1 minute or so earlier)

Elh had wondered how the Rookie was doing as she had stayed in the cabin while Chocolat took the Rookie to his room and Red had talked to the Kurvaz about the information that he had been told from the Rookie. That was over two hours ago and she wonder how he was getting on, she herself had been in a similar situation when she first came on the Asmodeus. She didn't know what Chocolat and Red were like, but overtime when there had their adventures together she warmed up to them and even fell in love with Red. But the Rookie was different sure he was in the same position as she was when she first came aboard the Asmodeus, but, he is alone in this world, an alien and doesn't have any other members of his species to communicate with (how he does she doesn't know due to the fact that he doesn't seem to talk) he is bound to feel isolated. So she proceeded to head to the Rookie's room as Red called to her as she left.

"Where are you going, Elh?"

"Just going to see how the Rookie is fairing" after she said that she exited the cabin and went down the corridor in the ship towards the room in which the Rookie was staying.

As she was going down the corridor shouldn't help feel a little bit nervous as she would be going to this alien, alone without Red with her. She wondered how he would react to her, he had so far been friendly the entire time, minus the part where Red yelled the fact that his kind was dead, but that would have been an instinctive response. Still she couldn't help but feel nervous.

She then quietly approached the door that separated the corridor and his room and then she proceeded to open the door silently as to not surprise him. When the door was fully open she saw the Rookie silently staring out the window, at first she thought the Rookie hadn't heard her which she wanted as she didn't want a reaction like last time. But she was surprised to see the Rookie look behind him and look straight at her, this sacred her as she was being so quite she almost couldn't hear herself when she was walking down and opening the door and yet he knew she was there! She would have to be careful when being around the Rookie in case he actually had tricks up his sleeve that no one knew about. As she finished thinking about that, the Rookie turn from looking at her and back to looking out the Window.

It didn't take a genius to figure out why the Rookie was feeling like that, and she would know as she was in a similar situation to what the Rookie was in now. When she first came to the Asmodeus, she was shy and just like to get straight to the point, but as her adventures progressed with Red and Chocolat, she was now glad to be with them now and more importantly she was now Red's girlfriend, sure he can be irresponsible at times and have a very big ego, but at times he can be really sweet and kind and that's what she loves about him, even when she nearly killed him to fur fill the 'Rite of Forfeit' he forgave her and stayed with her, she smiled at the thought.

She then proceed to walk towards the Rookie and called out to him. "Feeling lonely, Rookie?" The Rookie turned to look at her and gave her the same look as before, well even with wearing his helmet his movement in which he looked at her at just remained monotonous, and then just turned back to the window. Frowning she then stopped in the middle of the room and asked again this time in a lower tone. "Rookie I know how you feel, about being alone, I was in a similar situation to you." This got a different reaction out of him, he straighten his head out in a more uplifting way and turned round quicker to her. Feeling that she got more out of him she asked him "Sit down on your bed and I will tell you what happened to me, because like you I was alone."

The Rookie signed as his head and shoulders went down 'There is no way she is going to leave me alone is there? He thought as he got up from the window and went to sit down on his bed which wasn't far away from the window itself, but he didn't get near Elh. "Now I will not bore you with the whole story but I will talk about the day that Red found me and just a brief overview of what happened when found me, unfortunately I can't really remember much about that, but Red apparently found me unconscious on the Hindenburg which I was a large ship. Red had been tasked to recover some documents on the ship, but he also managed to find a medallion, that it was my responsibility to look after and instead of it choosing me it chose him. When I had been rescued from the Hindenburg and recovered on the Asmodeus and really had no regard for Red and his sister as all I had to do was complete my mission which was to seal one of the Titano-machina away, to do this I had to do the 'Rite of Forfeit' in which someone that the medallion has chosen is sacrifice to seal them away, and I really did not regard the lives of others at the time. But… over time I had started to like Red and the others as we worked together in order to save our world from being destroyed.

The Rookie had turned to look at her as she explained her story and he got more interested as she went on, until she finished. 'She did all this with Red and his sister despite the fact of not having a clue on who they were?' Well to be honest most of the work seems to have been done by Red, by how big his ego seems to be.' But she doesn't know exactly how I feel. I was completely lost in New-Mombasa with no way of contacting my squad, with every living thing trying to kill you. That was until I was able to intercept a communication from Dare when she was in the Data Hive, and the road to reuniting with his squad began there. But now, I have absolutely no Idea if there is any way to reuniting with my squad let alone being able to try and contact them.

"Do you have any stories" asked Elh with hope in her, she hoped that her story of how her adventure started with Red and then with stopping Lares would at least get the Rookie to say something about him. The rookie just signed and pulled out the pencil that they had allowed him to keep in case he wanted to talk to anyone. "You're going to need paper now aren't you" asked Elh with an amused look on her face, to which the Rookie replied with a slow nod. Elh just smiled and got up and left to get him some paper.

'I'll only tell her a small amount of what happened and keep the rest of it for later, if they do ask me questions about my history, as I have my mission recorder that shows what happened during New-Mombasa including what happened with my teammates.' Thought the Rookie. A few minutes later Elh return with a few pages of paper and also a chair, which she placed in front if the dresser this was so that the Rookie could sit at the dresser while he wrote on the desks, Elh then set the pieces of paper on the dresser and waited with a small smile on her face for the Rookie to get up from his spot on the bed.

The Rookie slowly got up from his bed and over to the chair in which he sat down on and leaned towards the dresser and brought the pencil in his right hand. It took him a while to think about something before he started to write something down. Elh then read this into herself. 'There is much for me to talk about that I wouldn't need to repeat myself for. If the 'Kurvaz' ask me about my history then I will be able to show it all to you. But I can say is that while you had trouble with your time with Red and being alone, I had the same as you but, it's similar to the situation I'm in now. I have no contact with any of my fellow teammates and I am alone with a different species that I have no clue about. You may have been alone yes but with the same species unlike me. But I tell you more about my history when we get to the Kurvaz.'

Elh signed a bit while she had failed in trying to get the Rookie to talk about his past experiences she had at least gotten him to open up with the information he has given to her. But he is still no confident about talking to a species that was not of his own, she guess that was understandable she wouldn't like if she was surrounded by a species that she does not know, now that she thinks about. But also she said he was alone like he was before? Does this mean that the Rookie is in another situation like this with no other humans before he came here? This itself made her curious and if that is the case then would be natural for the Rookie to be reclusive and defensive to anything that he is not confident with. It was at this moment that she should be sorry if she pressurised the Rookie into saying anything he was uncomfortable with but it also made her curious at the same time.

"Sorry Rookie if I tried to pressure you into saying anything that you didn't want to say." She said sadly as she looked down, thinking that the Rookie might not want to talk with her any more. However she was surprised when she saw the Rookie writing something down on the paper again, she then went to take a look at what he had written.

'Don't worry about, you don't know what I have been through, you couldn't have known how I would fell about it, that and that fact that I am not talking about it probably doesn't help either.' She couldn't help but smile at the Rookie telling not to worry about it with also trying to include a little bit of humour.

"Well I leave you alone now so that you have a chance to relax before we get to the Golden Roar, bye Rookie" as she smiled and waved as she left back up the corridor of where she came from.

The Rookie got up from the dresser, placed the pencil he had back into his pocket and walked back over to his bed and lay down on, it he just couldn't help but wonder, about the Kurvaz and what they planned to ask him. He then started to nod off on the bed, until Chocolat announced over the intercom, "We are approaching the Golden Roar, get ready everyone." The Rookie signed as his possible chance of getting a nap had just been ruined, as he slowly got out of the bed, existed the room and made his way up the corridor and into the cabin of the ship. The first thing he heard when he got there was Red loud voice.

"Yeah he we go the sooner we get on the Golden Roar, the quicker we can get answers" said Red as he turned to look at the Rookie who had entered the cabin and looked like he was regretting such a decision.

"We may also be figure out what it was that here came in" said Elh and then she quickly mumbled "and possibly more." Elh was curious to find out about the Rookie's History and what he had been through.

"Well when we get to the Golden Roar we will know" replied Red as he was happy that they would be able to get somewhere considering the fact that he was the one who ruined any chances of them getting anywhere with the Rookie.

"Hold on guys I'm landing the Asmodeus near the front of the Golden Roar" said Chocolat over the intercom It didn't take of Chocolat to get in position at the front of the Golden Roar, mainly the fact they were the only hunter group that went to the Golden Roar on a regular basis but also the fact as there was not many ships flying about, which made landing a lot more easier.

The Rookie at this point had moved up to the cockpit to escape Red rambling and to somewhere quiet and was able to get a clear view of the Golden Roar. He didn't see much due to how close they were to the ship, but one thing he could tell is that the ship they were landing on was massive, a compassion of it would is that you would be able to land a couple of pelican dropships on its bow, excluding the possibility of the ship having hangers as well. The very tip of the ship had a lion head, 'Guess that's why they call it the Golden Roar' though the Rookie, the lion also ha what looked like a long blade sticking out of its mouth. But there was a thing that confused the Rookie, the fact that some of the oriental building on the ship, the one's position on the wings were hanging upside down. There was probably a design that kept them in place. The Rookie was confused on there wasn't a substantial drag on the ship with the air hitting the buildings and how they haven't possibly ripped off yet. Chocolat then elegantly landed the Asmodeus close to the ship's deck.

"Alright everyone we have landed on the Golden Roar let's all get together." Said Chocolat as she put that through the intercom so that Red and Elh heard it too. She then turned to the Rookie with a smile. "You all set Rookie." The Rookie gave her a nod with his head in return to acknowledge her

'Not that I have much of a choice at this point' thought the Rookie as he looked out the cockpit window to see what looked like soldiers coming round the ship obviously to subdue him if he tried to do something.

"Well come on" said Chocolat as she walked down the corridor to get Red and Elh, the Rookie proceeded to follow her as well. When they get to the cabin area of the Ship they found Elh and Red there all ready to go. They then proceeded to leave the cabin area of the Asmodeus and went to one of the airlocks located on the right side of the ship.

'Well here we go, no turning back now' thought the Rookie as Chocolat turned the handle on the airlock and opened it up as the wind from outside went over him.

A/N Is this more even pace now? If not I have no clue, how to make it more even pace, anyone want to give me some tips?

I was originally going to make this a little bit longer but I have changed that now. And will add that on the next chapter.

Criticize were criticism is due.
