Author note

Hey everyone! Sorry I'm late but I've been working on my main Halo fic (and playing Reach Live :D) so I've been a little short on time (attention span). This fic is in honor of Jun, who manages to snipe me in the head every SINGLE time I play "The Package", Normal, Heroic, or Legendary. Every. Single. Time. 0-o. You should know that I really don't like Halsey, so… you know what happens when a fanfic writer has a character they don't like. Anyway… Oh yes, since I suck so much with grammar and spelling, I'm looking for a Beta for my Halo fics if anyone is willing to volunteer :D.

I do not own Halo. If I did, you would be able to kill Jun for revenge.

Enjoy : ).

The four remaining members of Noble Team fought to defend Doctor Halsey's lab from the seemingly endless amount of Covenant troops. After what seemed like an eternity of doing nothing but whooping Covie ass, the waves of enemies began to grow smaller and unfortunately, a whole lot harder to kill. Six ducked behind one of the conveniently present sandbag walls as another volley of plasma was sprayed in her direction, covering the wall behind her with scorch marks.

"God, can't they just die already?" Six yelled, referring to the three Elites and single Hunter that remained. Jun fired his Sniper Riffle, finally managing to down the massive green alien.

"Thanks." Emile growled as the Hunter fell, happy that it went down before it could hit him who knew how far. The aggressive Spartan quickly engaged the Elite with the Plasma Rifle, giving Six the opportunity she needed to take down a golden Zealot with an Energy Sword while Carter took on a Ranger with a Needler Rifle. The hyper-lethal Spartan rushed the large alien warrior, the Elite roaring in challenge. Six activated the Energy Sword she had picked up in Sword Base and the two blades clashed together. The female Spartan obviously had the situation under control, the large Zealot not even coming close to outmatching her. Suddenly, unexpectedly, and unfortunately, there came the loud crack of a Sniper Rifle and Six and the Elite collapsed to the ground in unison.

"SIX!" Emile yelled as the other Spartan hit the ground, the sniper round having gone through her head. Carter just stared at the fallen Lieutenant in shock, not even able to comprehend what had just happened. Emile turned around slowly before the fearsome skull on his visor met the face of the culprit. Jun froze.

"E-Emile, I swear that was an accident." Noble Three stuttered, utterly terrified. Emile was practically shaking with anger.

"You just killed Six." Emile said coldly, trying to sound as detached as possible.

"I didn't see… I was trying to help.." Jun tried to explain as Emile stepped closer and closer to him, but the snipers excuses were useless..

"She was doing just fine before you decided to HELP her!" The aggressive Spartan yelled.

"I'm sorry!"

"Sorry isn't good enough Jun!"

"Please don't hurt me! Ow! Emile! Oh sweet Jesus! No, not my Sniper Rifle! What, it's not like she was your girlfriend or something. Ahh, Snipe-y, NOOOOOO! COMANDER!" Jun cried out as Emile painfully beat him in his grief driven rage. Carter finally snapped out of it.

"Emile!" The skull-faced Spartan turned his head towards his leader, one fist ready to strike Jun's already bloody and bruised face, the other pinning the sniper to the wall of Halsey's lab. "Let him go." Emile didn't even flinch. "That's an order, soldier." The Warrant Officer growled before dropping Jun, who immediately ran and hid behind the Commander.

"Lucky son of a bitch." Emile grumbled.

"I didn't mean-"

"SILENCE!" Jun whimpered in fear. Carter rolled his eyes and stepped away from the pathetically cowering Spartan. Noble One stopped next to Emile, placing a hand on his armored shoulder.

"I feel you, Four, I feel you…" Carter sympathized. Damn snipers…

"Spartans, I'm opening the door to the lab now." Halsey's indifferent voice came over the comm.

"Its about damn time!" Emile snapped.

"Excuse me?"

"Nothing…. bitch." The aggressive Spartan mumbled the last word.

XXX

The three remaining members of Noble finally entered Halsey's lab. Strange multicolored lights flowed from around the underground room into a giant ball, with a mysterious feminine figure inside of it.

"The Hell is this stuff?" Emile asked rudely.

"Knowledge, a birth-"

"Knowledge? How the Hell can that be in a physical form?" Noble Four interrupted the doctor.

"Well-"

"Yeah whatever. So what do you want us to do with this shit?" Halsey's eye twitched in irritation. Damn Spartan III's, mouthing off to her all the time... (Not that she didn't deserve it…) Halsey walked over to one of the many computers in the room and began typing something.

"Yes well as I was saying, this is knowledge, this AI is its custodian, and she has chosen you for her curios." Halsey explained.

"Since when are Spartans chosen by an AI?" This time Halsey just ignored Emile.

"There is a shipyard with a cruiser waiting to get her off planet, your team needs to get her there."

"I understand." Carter nodded.

"Do you?" Catherine asked in a bitchy manner. "Mankind is outmatched. When Reach falls, and fall it will. Our destruction is all but certain."

"Wow, Doc, way to be pessimistic." The Warrant Officer was really starting to piss her off.

"As I was saying!" The old woman said loudly in an aggravated voice. "All hope is lost unless you can get this AI off Reach!"

"And what if we can't?" Carter asked, not being a positive thinker himself. All positivity flew out the window for him when Kat died.

"Good question, if there was anywhere else to put our hope. But there's not so…" She walked over to another pedestal, punched a few keys and removed a large bulky tube-like carrying device with a blue circle in the middle. Emile looked at it skeptically.

"That's an AI?"

"Yes." Halsey said through gritted teeth, a vein on her forehead throbbing from her anger.

"Now where's the Lieutenant? The AI chose her as her carrier."

"Ummm."

"Um what?"

"Jun.. kind of… killed her." Carter tried to explain while the sniper flinched and Emile balled his hands into fists.

"WHAT?"

"She's dead, Doctor." Carter said sadly.

"Oh well that's just fantastic! Now I half to pick a different carrier!" The three Spartans glared at the seemingly heartless old woman from behind their visors. Halsey let her gaze travel over the soldiers. Emile was out, and if Jun had been the one to kill Six then he was definitely out. That left Carter. "Here, Commander. I'm placing humanities last hope in your hands."

"Thank you, ma'am."

"Not to rush this 'hope of humanity' thing, but we gotta get out of here before this place blows." Emile said in a voice that obviously showed that he didn't care that he interrupted the very dramatic moment.

"Right, lets get going, Noble… and Doctor." Carter ordered as he magnetized the AI's container to his back plate.

The three remaining members of Noble Team stood with Doctor Halsey between two Pelicans. One for her, and one for them. Carter looked down at the doctor thoughtfully.

"Jun, escort the doctor off planet." Carter said. In all honesty, he could care less about Halsey's safety. He just didn't want Jun and his crappy shot to screw anything else up.

"I require no escort, Commander." Halsey said in her usual bitchy tone.

"Good, later bitch!" Emile said as he stepped into the carrier bay of the Pelican on the right, giving the doctor a mock salute as he went.

"Okay then. Come on Jun, lets go." Carter sighed before going to the cockpit of the Pelican. Jun stood as far away from Emile as the Pelican would allow, still afraid that the aggressive Spartan might resume beating the crap out of him. Carter sat down in the pilots seat.

"Dot, where we headed?" The AI replied like a crapy GPS system, telling the Commander where to go. "Al right, lets go." The Pelican took off, leaving Halsey behind with her escort.

"I hate III's." The doctor grumbled as she watched Noble fly away.

XXX

"We got Banshees and a Phantom on our tail!" Emile yelled as Carter flew their Pelican trough a canyon.

"Great!" The Commander yelled sarcastically as he tried to speed the dropship up. Jun pulled out his surprisingly unbent Sniper Rifle and took aim at one of the Banshees.

"Oh hell no!" Emile growled, snatching the long gun out of the snipers hands.

"Noo! Leave her alone!" Jun cried as he made a grab for his precious weapon of failed aim.

"Nope, we need her to stop the Banshees with out your shit-shot baldy." Emile hefted the Sniper Rifle in one hand and sighted along the length of it. He gave a hum of satisfaction and through the gun like a spear. Surprisingly it slammed into the front of one of the small purple Covenant craft, causing it to loose control and slam into its partner. The two Banshees exploded in a burst of purple flames.

"NOOOOO! I'll never forget you my love!" Jun wailed as he watched his Sniper Rifle burn.

"Now you know how it feels bitch." "How dare you!" Jun leapt at Emile and the two engaged in a vicious brawl. Unfortunately for the two Spartans, they were fighting dangerously close to the edge. Emile grabbed Jun by the cloth hood on his armor and threw him out of the back of the Pelican, to bad for Emile that Jun managed to grab his hand and pull the other Spartan with him. Since the Pelican was going so fast, the two flew backwards instead of down.

"DAMN YOU JUN!" Emile yelled before the two crashed into the Phantom, causing the Covenant ship to explode. Carter heard the explosion and turned his head to look over his shoulder.

"Emile, Jun, report!" Nothing. "Shit." The Commander cursed.

XXX

Carter continued to fly to where Dot had set the destination.

"Almost there." Carter said out loud, the nightmare was almost over. He could see the shipyard now, he was so close. Two Scarabs dropped from the sky, turning their robotic heads towards his little ship."Oh come on!" He shouted to the sky.

"We're screwed, aren't we?"

"Who said that?"

"The AI strapped to your back. You know.. humanities last hope.."

"Oh. Don't worry, I don't give up easily. I'll get you to the Autumn."

"Riiight." Cortana said doubtfully as the mechanical purple monstrosities charged their canons. Carter looked at the large balls of plasma that were undoubtedly about to destroy them.

"Yep, we're screwed. I'm sorry that Noble couldn't do it."

"Poor humanity." The Scarabs fired.

"God damn you Jun." Carter said before the Pelican was obliterated.

XXX

Cortana never got off Reach. Halsey died in an unfortunate Pelican crash (except it wasn't unfortunate). The Pillar of Autumn never got into space. Master Chief never got to fight the flood on Halo. Thel never became the Arbiter. Reach fell. Earth fell. The Covenant won the war. All of this happened because Jun couldn't freaking aim and his sniping skills sucked ass.

Damn you Jun!

See Jun, this is what would have happened if Noble Six didn't respawn. Get better aim!

Hope you all like my Jun and Halsey bashing hehe, sorry Jun and Halsey lovers but I always get my revenge }: ).
