'W-wha-? What the hell... Where am I?' I mentally groaned as I lifted my head from the- 'Hey is this dirt? Red doesn't have dirt in her living room!' I shook my head to clear the fuzziness that seemed to coat all my thoughts. As my vision started to clear I glanced around and found that I was in some kind of clearing, but upon further inspection I saw a rather large tower kind of thing not too far away. I jumped when I heard gunfire. So I ended up scrambling over to a rather large rock with a small ditch underneath it and just barely managed to squeeze under it when I saw large steel colored boots running/stumbling across the ground. My eyes widened. 'Is that…' I was cut off when I heard the sound of a plasma gun going off and an Elite's roar. The person in front of me turned sharply to the direction of the sound and began firing. Not long after I heard the thud of a body hitting the ground. I shivered.

'Well that's not going to hurt in the morning.'

I nearly squealed when I felt the rock (which was pressing uncomfortably against my back) shook. I could hear the Elite on top of it growl before launching itself at whoever it was in front of me. I dared to take a better look and scooted forward just in time for yet another Elite to land right in front of my face. Thus putting more dust in my eyes and making me give a small yelp in surprise.

Luckily for me the Elite didn't seem to notice and rushed towards the person who was currently trying to fight off three other Elites, with more on the way. I squinted to get a better look.

I gasped. 'No way! Is that… Noble Six!?'

His armor was just as I had set it up in my game, based off the one I saw in the trailers and clips. It was colored all steel and well… You know how the basic one looks. Although he did have a few add on's there too.

I was snapped out of my stupor when I saw him rip off his helmet, toss the now useless gun aside and use his combat knife against the large group of Elites. I almost saw his face, but then a stupid alien got in the way.

I huffed. 'Damn it. Wait-' I watched the Spartan III go down and him try to get back up to fight, only to be shoved back down. 'No… OH HELL NO! NOT THIS TIME BABY!' I practically clawed my way out of the ditch and ran up behind a Zealot. I jumped up and began scrabbling for holds to climb my way up towards the helmet while it tried to snatch and swat at me to get off. The other Elites started firing at the Zealot but they all hit him rather than me, allowing me to reach up and rip his helmet off before using the sharp points and edges as a bludgeoning tool.

I kept smashing the helmet against his head while blood began to squirt out with every hit I gave, the Zealot weakening as I continued. Finally it began to collapse and I jumped off, snatching his plasma gun and skittering my way towards the fallen Spartan.

The other Elites were still firing at me, and when I looked around I saw that the reason why I wasn't a dead pile of human meat was because of some kind of energy shield that surrounded me. It was an electric blue color, but I noticed a green tint to it. I looked back over and saw that an Elite Major was about to stab Noble Six with the energy sword before I could stop him. I wouldn't make it in time.

So I did the only thing I could do.

I screamed.

And the Major exploded. Quite literally, he exploded into a gooey mess that coated the ground and slid off my shields like slop. I stood there panting and staring at the remains of the Major while the others stood there in shock. I gagged. But when a sudden Idea hit me I swallowed my disgust and spun around to address all the other Elites.

"Hey! All of you, if you don't want the same thing to happen to you I advise dropping your weapons so you can live to fight another day!"

The group glanced around uneasily, one of them deciding to be smart and cautiously lowered his weapon to the ground.

The others snarled and growled but complied anyways. I felt rather smug at the moment. "Good choice. Now-" I turned to face the panting Spartan on the ground and skipped over to him. I turned to face the Sangheili once more. "if you will excuse us, we will just be-" I took another step but found there wasn't any ground there. Or anywhere I could step for that matter. I instinctively looked down as I began to fall and screamed at the sight.

The ground had disappeared and we were free falling down through a portal of some sort, at the end of the bright cylindrically shaped tunnel I could see some sort of opening but at that point I was still too far up to be able to make it out.

I looked back up and saw that I could see the entrance we had fallen through was getting smaller and smaller by the second. My hair whipped around behind me as we fell. I then realized that Noble Six was too weak to save me, so it was my job to protect the both of us. "This must be what the message meant!" I then tried to angle myself so that I could catch up the Spartan and found I could move freely.

I gulped as I picked up speed and rocketed towards the male. When I got close enough I reached a hand out and grabbed onto the chest plate and pulling myself closer. I finally got a good look at his face.

I blushed with wide eyes. 'Damn.'

He was unfortunately unconscious so I couldn't see his eyes, but he had dirty blond hair that seemed a little long for a Spartan (probably hasn't been given an opportunity to cut it) that was messy from the ordeal he just went through. He had a long scar that went from just above his left eye, across his well shaped nose, and just below his right eye nearly touching the corner of his lip. His face was angular, but not overly so. All in all he was just plain sexy. 'Shut up! This is no time to be gawking at people, we might die!' I thought angrily to myself. My other side responded back. 'Aww, but this may very well be a once in a lifetime chance to see the infamous Noble Six's face! Who else from home has ever actually seen it?' I paused. '… Good point.' I could feel my other side smirking. 'Now we can focus on survival.' I huffed and pulled Six closer to my form, trying to come up with some way I could save us both from splattering all over the ground.

I had to shut my eyes when we passed through the exit of the portal, the air was so cold! My eyes became slits as I tried to figure out where we were. I began gasping for breath and frost was forming in my hair and on my eyelashes. I soon found out why.

We were in the atmosphere.

I glanced back down at the unconscious male and then past him towards the planet we were hurtling towards and briefly wondered what planet it was. When I realized that I had no way to slow us down for an easy landing I began to panic again "Oh shit oh shit oh shit! Gotta think of a way out of this. Wings- WINGS! I need goddamn Wings!"

Nothing happened.

I growled and began screaming. "IS THIS YOUR IDEA OF A CRUEL SICK JOKE!? ARE YOU JUST GOING TO LET ME FALL TO MY DEATH AFTER YOU BRING ME HERE TO DO GOD KNOWS WHAT!? WELL FUCK YOU TOO!"

I then felt my other half take over. 'Oh dear God-' "NOOOOOOOOO I'M TOO SEXY TO DIE LIKE THIS! MY BEAUTIFUL FACE WILL BE RUINED!"

As we neared the planet- "Oh hey look is that a city?" I felt something growing in my back, in fact I could feel my shirt and hoodie straining to hold these bulges in. I whined in pain as it escalated to more and more severe until I felt my skin rip, along with my shirt and hoodie. This time I screamed in agony and I felt that whatever grew on my back establish a connection with my mind as they began to move.

I didn't turn my head to see what they were, since I figured it was what I called for. I tried moving to the left.

I did.

I tried moving to the right.

I did.

I tried slowing down.

'Oh SHIT!'

Not so good.

I tried flapping my wings to slow down but found it was nearly impossible to do with Six's excess weight. I growled at his unconscious form. "Lay off the cookies you jerk!" It really wasn't his fault we were falling out of the sky and hurtling towards the ground not-so-far-below us, but I was feeling pretty stressed out.

I gritted my teeth and narrowed my eyes as we neared the city.

"Well, Eben, Red, Kacy, if I don't make it out of this alive I want you all to know that… I WAS THE ONE WHO ATE THE LAST RASBERRY CHOCOLATE POPSICLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLE!" I cried as I tried to maneuver my way around the buildings, just barely missing getting my wings torn off. I didn't want to risk Six to fall hundreds of feet only to splatter on the ground anyways despite my efforts! So I decided to fly lower to the ground and let him drop when he was at a safe distance so I could have an easier time landing for myself.

It was getting harder to keep from skimming across the ground and smashing into cars/trucks but when I saw the fountain I knew where I could go. I angled myself towards the still working object and when I was a safe distance away I let Six go, letting the force of the momentum I gave him carry him into the shallow water. He landed with a large splash.

I wasn't so lucky.

I felt my wings give out and I tumbled to the ground, skidding, sliding, and tumbling across the concrete and pavement streets before slamming into a nearby building. I felt the air get knocked out of my lungs and I gasped for breath as black dots began to creep across my vision. I felt myself drifting off and though I fought to stay awake, I ended up succumbing to the darkness.

Next up: Eben

I could hear voices… faint murmuring from several people. "Sir, her vitals just picked up. There is no way she could have survived that fall!" I mentally raised an eyebrow. 'Fall?' Another voice appeared, closer than the last. "Maybe she didn't fall. Maybe she flew." "Sir, I mean no disrespect, but that's absurd!" "Take a look marine." I heard a few people gasp.

What the hell is going on?

Question for you all to think about just cause I'm bored. What do YOU think Red will be doing later on? :D
