Onboard Orbital MAC Gun Baghdad

Orbit around Earth

The Reign of Power had made it to Earth. Roy was ordered to the Orbital MAC Gun Baghdad, which was part of the Defense Grid. The Spartan rolled around in his bed and went back to sleep. He was barely aware that he was in orbit. The Spartan suddenly jolted awake when he heard a rustle around him.

"Hey, he's awake"

Three marines stood around Roy, they wore the expressions of awe and fear. Well Roy could understand they were looking at one of the best UNSC solider. Finally one brave solider stepped fourth.

"Your needed at the training range."

Roy hastily put on his amour, he was feverous without it, it had saved his life numerous times.

An ONI spook was there and gestured for the Spartan to follow him into a large room. It was full of computers, displays, and other gadgets.

"First, thing first the data crystal" spoke the spook. He was an average man, but something about ONI was always deceiving.

"What's on the data crystal?" asked Roy curious to know.

"We believe it to be about something called the ark."

"Also, this is Ares," said the officer. The hologram display warmed and came to life. A AI appeared he was dress in what appeared to be a toga.

"Wow, Spartan-511 what a---

"I know he's a bit odd, he is the god of war but he picked a toga to wear." The ONI spook had taken the AI out of the port and handed it to Roy.

"He was created to assist any surviving Spartans and as to seeing Master Chief has one we agreed to give you Ares." With that note the Spartan walked out and went to the firing range to train.

Roy had decided to head to the bridge to see the commander. The doors slid apart as the half-ton killing Spartan walked into the room.

"Good to see you," said Commander Fort as he walked over.

"Yeah, long time no see," came a voice that Roy knew, he turned, and there next to him stood two Spartans.

Flashback

Onboard UNSC Frigate Pittsburgh

Five Spartans sat in the launch bay of the frigate.

"Ready to kick some alien ass?" asked Spartan-034 Lance.

"All battle hands report to the cargo bay for immediate evacuation." Came the voice of the admiral over the comm. System. The hull reverberated as another plasma torpedo hit the side of the ship.

"Inbound two pelicans," yelled Spartan-52, Mark. The pelicans hovered in the cargo bay.

"Spartan-511 round up, you're coming with us," said a marine in the aft compartment.

"The others take the other one," The Spartans grabbed there gear and made to leave.

"Aww guys well see each other in awhile," said Lance. When the pelicans left that was the last time Roy saw them.
