5 days ago, Captain Thomas Laskey said, "Fireteam Abaddon, I have a mission for you guys to do."

They heard that and walked forward and said, "Captain."

Captain Laskey said, "Today, the UNSC Delta Discovery Team found a new planet for us to explore. Trivea, your job is to check if the planet is capable of holding human life like Earth."

The leader of Fireteam Abaddon, Thomas Kay said, "Trivea is a new planet that we get to explore."

Raven Tavarez said, "OK. We'll go."

Bridget Monehi said, "A new planet for us to explore, sounds like fun."

Chelsea Forbes said, "Let's go explore."

Captain Laskey said, "If there is any chance of there being life on this planet, contact us."

Thomas said, "We got it sir."

Captain Laskey said, "Then get to work ladies."

Thomas nodded and then said, "Let's go."

They walked to the armory and John-117 saw that and asked, "What's the hurry, Thomas?"

Thomas answered, "A mission to look into a planet to see if it's capable for humans to live there."

Bridget handed Thomas a BR55 Service Rifle (Battle Rifle) along with a BR97 Service Magnum (Pistol) and said, "There you go, sir."

Thomas said, "Thank you, Monehi."

Bridget said, "No problem."

John-117 said, "Good luck."

Thomas smiled and said, "You know me John, I don't need luck to be successful in my mission. But thank you. Talk to you later."

Thomas walked away and then Captain Laskey said, "If your comms are down, try to contact us as soon as possible."

Thomas heard that and said, "Comms down, huh. I'll keep that in mind."

Chelsea said, "We'll keep that in mind, sir."

Thomas said, "Let's move out."

They entered their Pelican and then Thomas closed the hatch and took off and Raven flew the ship to their destination and asked, "Why did we all become soldiers again?"

Thomas answered, "To protect the human race from threats beyond humanity."

Bridget said, "To find a man and get married."

Thomas heard that and then Chelsea said, "To beat the shit out of our opponents."

Raven said, "No, to fight for the people we care about and protect them."

Thomas said, "Exactly what I said."

Raven said, "I know. We should be arriving at our destination in about 2 minutes."

Chelsea said, "That's fast."

Thomas said, "That's because we used slipspace to get here."

Bridget asked, "Do you ever use your head?"

Chelsea answered, "No."

Thomas smiled and said, "Alright. Let's see how this is going to work."

2 minutes later, the Pelican stopped moving and said, "We're here."

Thomas said, "Alright, let's get to work then and see if humans can live here."

Thomas opened the hatch and they brought out their primary weapons. Thomas has a BR55 Service Rifle. Raven has a M394 DMR (Battle Rifle). Bridget has a M38 Tactical Shotgun (Shotgun). And Chelsea has a SRS927 SBD (Sniper Rifle). Thomas said, "Let's move out."

Everyone used there boosters to fly to the ground of the planet. As soon as they landed on the ground, they looked up and saw dark trees that are nothing like the trees from Earth. Saw birds like a normal planet would have and Thomas said, "UNSC Infinity, this is Fireteam Abaddon, please respond."

Thomas waited for a response and then Bridget said, "The comms are down."

Thomas said, "Alright, we'll have to explore without confirmation then. Or at least find the source of the jamming signal."

Chelsea asked, "How would we do that exactly?"

Raven answered, "By looking around."

Thomas said, "Exactly. Use your head more often. You might get somewhere in a relationship."

She heard that and said, "OK. Now if I were to tell you that there is a weird thing behind you, would you argue with me?"

Thomas asked, "What does it look like?"

Chelsea answered, "It's about our height. Hair all around its chest and legs. It's got 4 fingers and legs and its head is like a Promethean, but not robotic like them."

Thomas heard that and turned around and said, "Oh shit. She was right."

A voice appeared and said, "Thomas Kay, please follow the Dundorats."

Thomas heard that and asked, "Why should we listen to you?"

The Dundorats aimed their Z-246 Directed Energy Engagement (Light Rifle) at them and then Thomas said, "Aim."

They aimed at the Dundorats and then the Dundorats started speaking a different language and Thomas asked, "What the hell are they even saying?"

Bridget answered, "I don't know. This is probably some ancient Forerunner language that we never recorded before."

The voice appeared again and said, "Follow the Dundorats."

Thomas asked, "Why should we do that?"

The voice answered, "You want to know if this place is capable of inhabiting humans, correct?"

Thomas answered, "Yes."

The voice said, "Then follow the Dundorats."

Thomas heard that and then Raven asked, "What if we don't want to?"

The voice answered, "I'll have them kill the four of you. Listen, all I want is to help you."

Thomas said, "But before I even make a decision, how the hell did you know my name?"

The voice answered, "Can't tell you that. You must find that out yourself when you get to me. If you get to me."

Thomas said, "I'm going to need to talk with my team about this for a second."

The voice said, "Take your time."

Thomas turned around and then asked, "Should we follow the whatever she's calling them? Or should we do what we do best?"

Chelsea said, "I don't trust her."

Bridget said, "I agree with Forbes on this one. It doesn't look good."

Raven said, "Let's do what we do best, Kay."

Thomas nodded and turned around and said, "OK. I just got confirmation from my team about what we're going to do. We're going to follow you."

The Dundorats heard that and then did a hand gesture telling them to follow them and then Thomas nodded and they took off and appeared behind them and stabbed the 4 of them in the side of the head with their Z9 SCK (Melee) and then put them on the ground gently so they wouldn't make any loud noises and then dragged them outwards into the woods and said, "OK. Let's walk forward now."

The voice said, "You killed my men. How dare you? I just want to help you. Come on over here. Don't kill anymore of my men."

Thomas said, "Should we listen to her, or not?"

Raven answered, "Not."

Chelsea said, "Nope."

Bridget said, "Let's do it our way."

Thomas walked in with our weapons up and said, "Good enough."

They walked forward into the camp and saw more Dundorats and then shot them all and then they grabbed their weapons and started running and jumping all over the place and Bridget saw that and they were shooting at them and then after 2 minutes, Fireteam Abaddon took out the enemy forces and then walked forward and then looked at all of them and started to drag them back to the entrance and said, "We don't trust you at all, voice. So we're going to do things our way."

She heard that and said, "You asked for it."
