Chapter 8

1200 hours, Iroquis, Feb. 12, 2552

Captain Keyes told me that the suit I was in was only a replica of the REAL MJLONIR suit. He showed me what the real one looked like and was exactly like my old one…only more complex or advanced. I tried it on and it did the exact thing as normal and I followed Keyes to a different training room which was black with a little blue beam of light coming from around a corner. He told me to go to that light and I ran faster then I could before. I got there and saw a blue square and two light beams around it. I stepped in as told and didn't move the slightest muscle. Those two beams were spinning around me and Keyes spoke to me through the COM system and said "This'll hurt a bit." I felt a shock and everything went white! I couldn't see a thing! Then, my vision came back to me and I saw something blinking red and blue going up through the corner of my helmet. It was a shield re-charger! I also had another new feature. A Radar on the top-left corner of my helmet. It showed yellow dots for good guys and red ones for bad. It was cool and all but, at the end I got a new title because I was the only one to survive through the Suit re-deemer. My new title was Master Chief. I was sent to my resting room which only had a bed now that I was a Real SPARTAN and resting was really the only thing I did…well…also shower and wash hands. I was on a new mission…
