"Marcus Hudson, Recon and Communication Specialist of ODST Fireteam Raven. Entry, oh god, how many has it been?"
He let out a sigh.
"Whatever the hell this entry is, I honestly don't know how much longer we're gonna last. Those demon-things took Alpha Base and probably burned the damn place to the ground, but believe it or not, the frickin' Covenant came to rescue us. Captain Keyes negotiated a truce with the hingehead in charge and the survivors were scattered across the fleet. My thoughts? I wanna trust these guys, but I just can't. They've killed too many of us to just be forgiven, and the covies probably feel the same way. A Jackal and one of those tentacle balloon things have already tried to steal my helmet. Whenever I'm out and about, I can feel their eyes on me. I'm always paranoid that, when I'm alone, an Elite or something is coming to kill me. I passed one once and the look it gave was the most terrifying thing I have ever seen. I was certain it was going to burn a hole in my chest. But it didn't. I guess if they haven't killed us yet, they're probably just waiting until our common enemy is gone, so they can take us out when they don't need us anymore. There wouldn't be any reason for them not to, and we've been a thorn in their side for almost 30 years, and if I had the same opportunity, I wouldn't even hesitate. So why are they? End log,"

"This is bullshit, dude. Everyone else gets to chill out in the Pelican, playing cards or something, and we have to put away the damn weapons? It's unfair," Daniels said.
"We drew straws, we lost. Simple as that. Now let's hurry, I don't w6nna overstay my welcome," Martin said.
"What, you scared a gorilla's gonna eat you?"
"They don't actually do that, right?"
"No, not when you're alive. What they do beforehand is much worse,"
Martin let out a groan.
"I think this is it. Marty, open one of 'em up,"
"I don't think these are the ones they gave us,"
"They gave us the supply cases closest to our Pelican, and I don't see any closer,"
"But aren't those-"
"Just open the damn case!"
Martin sighed and opened the case.
"Hm. Guess you were right. Close it up before anyone noti-"
An Elite yelled, causing the audio to cut out for a moment.
"Jesus!" Daniels screamed.
Daniels hit the ground, causing the weapons in his possession to fall to the floor. The Elite muttered something, possibly a slur, not loud enough for everything in the hangar to hear, but loud enough to be picked up by the microphone. The covering of the case was put back in place.
"I think you were right, Marty. The other ones must've been ours,"
"Yeah, no crap,"

"You don't talk much, do you?" Ramos asked.
A part was removed from his SMG.
"Fair enough. So, I was thinking about an extended barrel to give the SMG more range. Maybe you could just stack suppressors, but that might not even be possible,"
Another part was removed.
"Maybe you can put an underslung shotgun instead of the grip, but that may take up too much space. There really isn't much room. Maybe an M301? It's smaller, right? I could load it with flashbangs and I would be unstoppable when clearing a room,"
A part was removed.
"The stock… What could be done with the stock? Maybe some spare mags could be attached to-no? Why not? You probably don't have anything to attach them with. That makes sense,"
A small object clamped onto the SMG.
"What was that thing you just put on the mag? It has a purpose, right? … Okay, I'll just… take your word for it,"
One by one, the pieces were returned.
"Hey, what's this? Is it a mod for my SMG? No, it can't be, it's too big. What's this?"
The object clicked and made a sound similar to a round chambering in a revolver.
"So, it must launch something, maybe even change what it launches, but how do I-"
The device was promptly snatched from his hands.
"I get it. You're pretty secretive with your new toy, so I'll leave it alone. Is my M7 ready?"
The modified SMG was pushed into his chest.
"You talk too much," Hayden told the ODST.
The Slayer walked away.
