Six years later...

August 19, 2517, 1435 hours

Now, six year old Matthew Walker or better known as "Matt" was walking home form school after a long day at school. The year was 2517, and in 2514 his sister, Rachel Luara Walker, was born. In 2516, his second sister was born, Sarah Allison Walker. When he arrived home, we was immediately assaulted with a hug from both of his sisters.

"Hello big brother!" his sisters said in unison.

Hi there little sisters," he replied. he gave each of them a kiss on the forehead.

"Oh there you are son. You arrived just in time to start dinner" his father said. Matt looked up to see his father standing in the doorway of the kitchen.

"Hi dad" he said. He walked over to his father and gave him a big hug. After that, he went and washed his hands and sat down st the table waiting for dinner to start. his mother had cooked roast beef and veggies for dinner. The entire family sat down toeat. Little Sarah had to mushy baby food since she was only a year old.

"So, how was school?" his mother asked.

"Good mom. We learned math today" he replied.

"Excellent" his mother said cheerfully. After dinner was over , he went upstairs to start his homework. When he wasw done with that it eas time for bed. he and rAchel bot brushed their teeth and got into bed. His parents put Sarah in her crib.


Later that night, 2200 hours

Matt was sleeping in his bed when suddenly, he was abrutly woken up and taken to the kitchen wehere he say his fathe, mother, and Rachel tied to chairs, their wrists tied behind their backs. the man who had woken him did the same.

"What the hell do you want major?" his father asked the man.

"Oh nothing really," the man answered,"I just want you dead."

"Why?" his father asked again.

"simple," the major replied,"When you die I'll move up and take ypur spot" His father was a Colonel in the UNSC military.

"Your trying to take power, aren't you?" his mother said.

"Yes and I don't leave witnesses" his man said.

"Go to hell, major. And if you want my kids dead, you'll have to go through me" his father spat.

"Your in no position to help your kids, colonel" the man replied smugly. He then pulled out a handgun and put it against matt's stomach.

"Don't you dare pull that trigger" his mother growled.

"If you do, I'm gonna kill you" his father hissed.

"Too late" the major answered. he pulled the trigger and Matt screaned in pain. he then aimed at Rachel adn fired. The bullet hit her in the forehead, sending brain matter and bone all over the wall and floor.

"You son a bitch!" his father shouted. "You'll a dead man, you hear me?! A DEAD MAN!"

The man laughed evily and shot matt again in the chest.

"No!" his mother yelled. he then shot his mother in the leg and she shoutede out in pain.

"How dare you!" his father yelled. he the nwent over to matt and shot him in the back, right where the bullet in his chest had exited.

"Dom't you see?" the man asked," If you talk someone is going to get shot."

"If I survive today bitch," his father hissed,"I'm coming after you and puting a bullet in your fucking head!"

"I don't think so" the man replied. he then again shot his mother in the same spot as he had shot his sister. he then once again went over to Matt and and shot him in the leg. He winced in pain, but didn't scream.

"This is what you get for calling me bitch, colonel" the man said. he went over to his father and shot him right between the eyes, killing him instantly.

Matt's vision began to blur. The last thing he remembered he blacking out was his body hurting in severe pain.


Several days later...

Hospital on Earth

August 22, 2517, 1030 hours

Matt woke up in hospital room several days later. He saw a nurse standing over him and she gasped and shouted,"Doctor! He's awake."

A doctor came in and asled,"How are you feeling son?"

"Uh, my body hurts everywhere" Matt groaned.

"Well, you were severly burned when you found and you had four bullet holes in your body" the doctor said. The checked him out and nurse asked him if he wanted anything.

"Some water would be nice" he answered.

"Ok, I'll be right back" she nurse replied. She came back a few minutes later with a cup of water.

"Thank you, ma'am" he said.

"Your welcome, honey"He drank the water and then fell asleep for a few hours. When he woke up, a man and a woman were sitting in chairs beside his bed.

"Oh good, your awake" the woman said.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"We're friends of your parents" the man answered.

"Did you know parents?" he asked the man.

"Yes" the woman said,"Very well, in fact."

He looked at the woman and then suddenly felt a sharp prick on the side of his neck and everything went black.
