As Liara and her friends worked on growing up, Dr. Hasley recruited them into her Spartan program and their parents agreed. But Liara has a closer and deeper bond with her father then the others do. Mina was pegged as the grenade master while Luke was given the position of sniper and Maria and Rose, well they both have different skill sets.
One as the pilot and the other as a medic. Marcus was the tech/hacker of the group while she was being trained as the commanding officer. Her men knew her far better because of the fact that she's the only telepath as the group goes. Because her mother was the only strong telepath when her parents met and had gotten married.
And the other reason is because she's never been able to speak properly but God knows she's been trying to make it work. Shada was drafted as a translator for ONI with her husband.
Emile and Dora are happy to be as hand to hand trainers for the younger Spartans. As a healthy eight year old however, Liara was often a loner while her training progressed expect when she's with her father. She's always been the quietest one out of the bunch and everyone knows it.
One day, however, found the group working as a team as a group of teens and the made it out alive without too much trouble. save for Luke being the sole sniper. But he did well as did the others but there was a miner scuffle between one of the girls and Liara.
She was trying to keep her team together when Mina made a scathing remark about her being a mute when she was overwhelmed by her commander's strong telepathy in her head telling her to please not insult her while they're working together and that's how the fight itself had gotten started. Mina threw the first punch and Liara caught it but the other girl twisted and dislocated her shoulder in one swift motion.
Rose relocated the shoulder and tied her arm into a sling and everyone went home safe and sound. Mina is Dora and Emile's daughter and is too often a trouble maker. Later that day, the two girls kissed and made up with Mina saying. "Captain Carter, I don't mean to be such a hard ass but that's how I usually am. and well, I'm sorry about making that damned scathing remark about you being a mute. Can you please forgive me?"
She nodded and slowly said. "Mina, I'm not truly able to speak much with my words as much as you and the others can but that's why I'm such a strong telepath. Let's be friends." And the two shook hands on it.
One day, Liara was sketching out her armor with the two colors she truly loves the most, silver and gold. But the rest like red and black, blue and white, pink and silver and deep forest green with light green and such. So, after several years more worth of training and their kids ready to become Spartans, their parents were happy. None more so then Commander Carter, Noble One.
Liara's team was given the call sign Nova Team, with Liara as the captain and Nova One, Mina, Nova Two, Marcus, Nova Three, Luke, Nova Four, Maria, Nova Five and Rose, Nova Six. and their armors were made with their specific colors and their last names as well. And they were given their first assignment as well. Working with Noble on a mission. And no one knows what it's all about either.
