A/N: Well, here we all are. The end of this thing. This is the last chapter unless someone submits me the translation from Truth's letter to Mercy, or if I can figure it out myself.

M25L Recovery Station/Censored/Cleared

117,

As you might imagine - though I know you won't - I've heard quite a bit of you're recent adventures on the Halo. I'm glad you made it, I have to assume you always will. Recovery is going well and I am proceeding on to fourth-stage rehabilitation. It is signifgantly more painful than previous stages, but I'm happy to be skinned once again.

I hear that you will be testing the new Mark VI. I will definitely look for the reports on how it works out. The specs are obviously improved, but the chance to further incorporate Covenant technology somehow makes my skin crawl.

We miss you John. I've asked Sergeant Johnson to let me know if you're ever near the M25L Recovery Station and perhaps I'll be able to come see you. I'm hoping I'll have the cahnce soon. Today, humanity feels pale and thin with only ghosts to defend her heart. I feel much the same.

I'll write again.

A/N: That's the End! Feel free to speculate on who Cassandra is. Personnally I have no clue, but I'm thinking she's another Spartan from the part about how she says 'but I'm happy to be skinned once again.' Not to mention how she knows about the specs of the Mark VI over the Mark V.
