A/N

Hey welcome back everyone, sorry it took so long to write this. I just started a new job and I've been worn out and asleep most of the time, so I hate to say it but my chapters may be A) shorter than normal or B) a longer time before they come out. But they will still come. And I want to acknowledge (TheDiadactshand) as my editor and I suppose partner when it comes to writing this? But I think it's time I stopped talking and started writing the story.

Once the bullhead sat down inside the hangar of the airship, the doors opened, and an escort of Atlesian Knights came up on either side of the door on the port side of the bullhead. Winter Schnee stepped out of the bullhead first, then came the massive seven foot tall armored figure with two body bags, which caused everyone in the area to stop and stare with caution, and more than a little bit of fear.

One stern look from the pale specialist, ensured those who had stopped went back to working once more.

The group then was escorted out of the hangar and towards the control room of the airship. As Conner walked through the halls, a group of men came up and took one of the bags from him(Granted with much difficulty, as the full grown Sangheili weighed around eight hundred pounds.) and headed off to the ships other bag he kept very close to his person. The men looked confused and gave a questioning glance to the specialist escorting the Spartan.

Winter was curt with her reply.."That one is his personal items. You may retrieve the bag whenever he finds something more suitable." The men nodded in understanding and left with the Alien on a heavy duty stretcher.

The group then began heading towards the control room once more, passing several guards posted outside the doors of certain rooms. Conner began speaking to Alexis through his neural implant.

"So what do you think of their ship so far, I'm sure you've been keeping track of the general design since we got here." Conner says.

"So far I think they went more for looks than durability and capability. Though I must say, I find it intriguing to know what their power source is. It's definitely not nuclear or slipspace, perhaps some other form of fueling we haven't discovered yet?" Alexis asks curiously.

"Maybe it's magic." Conner says sarcastically.

"Magic is just science we don't understand yet, I will think on it more later. It seems we're almost to our destination." Alexis says.

The group enters a set of doors and steps onto the bridge of the ship. Standing by one of the consoles is a man in a white uniform, when the group enters he turns to meet them. He immediately notices the massive armored figure among the group, but his eyes then fall upon Winter.

"Winter." He says with a slight nod towards her "I expect a report later. But for now.." He turns to Conner. "I will speak to you and the alien in my office." He says still talking to Winter.

"Understood, sir." Winter says with a nod and the three of them step through a door off to the side and into Ironwood's office.

Once inside the man steps behind his desk and sits down, Winter moves to stand behind him. The alien moves behind the chairs that are in front of the desk and remains standing. And they begin a long talk with Ironwood trying to get as much information about Conner's purpose on Remnant.

A/N

So...short chapter right? Yeah I started it 3 months ago roughly. This one kinda just threw me for a loop because I wanted to go into detail with their conversation but it's just...to much detail that I don't have time for.

But yeah hope you guys liked it, I do plan on putting out more chapters I just gotta find the time to write them. Anyways, I'll catch you guys later and I look forward to any feedback.
