Chapter 4: Thom's Rescue and The Demon awakens
Brittany woke up, NOBLE had been a way for a year and Morgan was moody as hell, she didn't blame Morgan. She looked at her one year old son and daughter, Emile was still in his coma and her father and his group of spartans were doing what they did best. Like all spartans did well being a pain in the Covenant's ass. She yawn and stretched she was beging to think Emile would never wake and it pained her. She loved him, she looked to see two cribs one Matalic pink for Kitten and one Matalic blue for C.J. Her eyes widened at who was inbetween the two cribs. Her father John 117, he like always was asleep a hand in each crib. This time he was in his armor and he had his helmet off, she always woundered what her mother saw in her father to fall in love. She looked at the calander it was April 1st her mother's birthday. Mina had been getting messages form Thom daily and she had been talking to Carter. Everytime he would say Emile's name she would just shut down.
Brittany heard a noise and looked up to see Kitten looking at her with sad eyes "Mama, hats wong?"Kitten asked.
She looked at her daughter and forced a smile on her face "Mommy talked to Uncle Carter last night."she said
"Ukle Tarter."said Kitten.
She laughed, Kitten and C.J tried so hard to say names and words "What are you up to Kitten?"asked her father.
Kitten jumped and laughed as her grandfather picked her up and tickled Kitten. The oldest twin laughed as her grandfather tickled her. She looked at her father and smiled "Hello, dad."she said
"Brittany, you and I need to talk. I know what to day is."he said.
She looked at him and nodded, Morgan came in "Morgan, could you watch the twins?"she asked
"Sure."she said.
She and her father went to the observation deck, Reach looked so beautiful. She looked at her father "You would make Samantha proud, Brittany. She would also weep,I remember when we first met, your Mother was in charge of the ODST squad Buck."said her father.
She looked at him "What was my mother like?"she asked.
Her father smiled at the memorie "Your mother, and I first met when her brother died. I admit I was the one who killed him, and it was only until after the mission did I find out that he was an deep cover ONI with your mother."her father's smile turned into a frown.
So thats how they met, a tragic incident like she met Emile. She looked at her father "It was a year later that I met with her again, she was aboard the UNSC Enterprise.She hated me at first, hell she threatened my life! I went to her room that night when I found out that our teams were to work togeather. I still rember the smell of the stuff that she burned. Sage, Dragon's blood, and Sandlewood. She actualy for gave me. After a while I acidently walked into her room after she got hurt by a hunter. She was naked soaking in the tub. When she saw me..."he paused
"She raped you?"she asked
"No she tossed my ass out of her room with her tellicanesses powers. Avery was there and she was pissed. After that she got even with me, by astrolprojecting into the shower while I was bathing. She was...impressed."he said
"Alright you could have stopped prior to that."she said.
She looked at her father "I loved her Brittany, when she was pregnant for you and your twin we had to stage her death to hide it form the director. I admit for a while, I was scared because she being ex-military and an ODST is special opperations, INNIEs would kill to get the intell she had."said her father
"So you protected us from afar."she said
"When you were born, I was scared I would brake you. I was in my armor at the time and didn't have the chance to change."he said smiling at the memorie
"The armor don't work from a birthing mother ask Emile when he wakes up."she said
"I know all about it."he said.
She closed her eyes "Brittany, the night your mother died I was there. I held you while you cried over her death. Even though you didn't see it I cried too. The minor that saved your life is Juniors father."her father said.
He was crying at the memory of that night, she put a hand on her father's shoulder and he looked at her "I thought I could protect you by giving you up and all I did was hurt you."he said
"I forgave you, when you carried me to the ICU. Your my father and I should never had blamed you. The bastard responsable for all the pain is dead now."she said
"Spartans can never have a normal family life. I was hoping if you did survive if you go attacked again that you'd be a helljumper like your mother and not a spartan."he said
"Spartan IIIs are diffrent than a spartan II we can have normal lives after this war is over."she said
"And if it isn't?"he asked
"I am a freelancer father, a soldier of fortune I make my own way."she said.
He touched her face removing a stran of her black hair from her face "So much like your mother."he said.
She smiled and left to go check on Emile.
DXDXDXDXDXDXDX
Chief watched as his daugter walked away, she was so much like her mother; but with his spirit and courage. He was proud of her in every way of a father to be proud of ones daughter. She and that knuckle head who still was in a coma graced him with grandchildren. James also made him proud. He went back to the room to see Morgan changing Kitten's dirty diper "I sware, these could make a hunter passout."she said.
Chief laughed and shook his head as Carter looked at him "Gampa, I cren ad wat to go pay wit Jhn and Jaob."said Carter
"Settle down there little man, don't get your diper in a twist. Mama wanted me to take you to see Reach today."he said
"Gampa, wen is Ukel Orge oming ome?"asked Carter
"When he is done with what he does best."he said.
As he looked at Carter, he couldn't help but think of how much Emile's old ways resmble that of Avery's. He shook his head could Emile be Avery's lost son? He found Avery and yanked him to the side as Morgan got the twins ready "You need to get that blood work done."he said
"Way ahead of you chief."said Avery
"Will Avery Johnson please report to Doctor Dufrain."said Fillis over the comms.
Avery waved goodbye and left, Morgan came by with the twins and they loaded up in the pelican and went to Reach.
DXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Emile opened his eyes slowly, he felt so weak. He looked around his surroundings, shit he was in the hospital ward of the ship "Sir the tests are conclusive he is your son."said the Doctor.
He turned his head to see Avery Johnson and Doc talking. Well someone was going to be happy that they had a long lost father "Doc?"he croked.
The two looked at him "Emile, your awake son."said Johnson
"How long have I been out?"he asked.
His throat was dry and Doc gave him some water "A year NOBLE 4."said Doc.
He spit his water out, and looked at Doc "How long?"he asked
"A year, shortly after you were put in here your team was deploied on a mission. Brittany had began to think you would never wake up."said Doc
"Doc, could you find her and bring her to me."he said
"Of course NOBLE 4."said Doc and the Freelancer medic left.
He looked at Avery "I take it you found your bastard child?"he asked
"Yes, and he is in the same bed you are in right now."said Johnson.
Emile's mouth dropped...that bastard told him his father was a UNSC dirt bag, but Avery Johnson. The man was a Spartan I. So like Brittany he was the son of a Spartan "Who threw you the hint."he said
"Chief did, especially after what Jorge told him. Your a chip of the ole block, you know what the ladies like. This time you found a keeper."said Johnson.
He nodded "I love her if I didn't I wouldn't be in here."he said.
The long lost father and son talked, about anything they considered on topic. Neither one would talk about the other's love life.
DXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Brittany was right in the middle of changing C.J's atomic green shitty diper when her father returned with the twins. They were the envy of every couple on Reach. She looked at her father as he awnsered her comm "She'll be there in a few moments."said her father.
She looked at her father "Well what was it?"she asked
"Emile, hes awake and he is also Avery's son."said her father.
She looked at the twins "Daddy is awake, I will go see him first. Grandpa will bring you when the doctor says its okay."she said.
The twins sreaked happy that their father was finaly awake after a year. She rushed out of the room and to the medical ward to see her beloved Emile.
DXDXDXDXDXDX
Brittany, had everyone worried. Emile was in a coma one that he wouldn't wake from. She was walking the halls thinking of Jun when Brittany blurred past her heading for the medical ward of the ship. She bolted after her "Rasha."she called
"Yeah?"Rasha asked
"Whats the rush?"she asked
"Emile, hes awake."Rasha bellowed.
She couldn't believe her ears! She laughed and followed happy that her Commander was over joied to have her Demon back.
DXDXDXDXDXDXDX
Brittany slid to a stop at Emile's door, she peeked around the corner to see Emile slowly getting out of his bed and into his boxers and sweat pants "Nice ass NOBLE."she said leaning against the door frame.
He spun and looked at her a smile on his rugged face "Hello Beautiful."he said.
She looked him up and down, and he smiled "Like what you see?"he asked.
She laughed and walked over to him, she wraped his arms around him and sobbed into his chest. She was so happy to see him awake and on his feet "Are you alright baby?"he asked
"I almost given up hope."she said.
He held her tighter "I said I would never leave you Brittany. I always will, now where is Kitten and C.J?"he asked
"Back in our room waiting for the okay to see you."she said.
Emile smiled down at her "When we have a chance alone, I want something from you."he said
"I want it too, but first are you clear to leave?"she asked
"Yes, they gave me something to get me back on my feet and back into fighting shape by the time NOBLE returns."he said.
She nodded and took his hand "Welcome back Emile."said Morgan
"Hey, Eski bitch."he said.
Morgan gave Emile the finger "That is for Jun's long barrel not my shot gun."he said
"At least he has a long barrel."Morgan snapped blushing at what Emile had said.
She shook her head and lead her lover to their room to see the children.

April 22, 2552
Brittany was ordered not to tell anyone about what was going to happen to Thom, Mina had already known and was worried about her beloved Thomas. Brittany, spent most of her time on the opservation deck looking down on Reach. It was as beautiful as Earth was, but she would never set foot on either again. Not while she had command of the Intervention.The plan she and Lita came up with was Thom's last moments, Holland gave her the green light with when she told him of the plan.
flash back
Brittany stood infront of Colonel Uban Holland NOBLE teams handler, she stood at attintion as Holland looked at her report. The Colonel placed it on his desk and looked at her, leaning on his elbows on the desk folding his hands "You are not to let NOBLE know of this nor Mina am I understood commander?"he said
"Sir, if I do that I betray those under my command. I have also forseen Mina taking her life."she lied hoping Holland wouldn't call her bluff
"You are not to tell no one."said Holland
"Very well sir."she growled out.
End of Flashback
That was three days ago, walked passed Mina's and Bryan's room. Lita had informed her earlyer that Thom needed her. She just had to wait for their return. She heard Bryans screams and turned back to the room and punched in the over ride code. She gasped at what she saw. Mina on the floor in her own blood. She hit the comm "MEDICAL UNIT TO MINA'S ROOM STAT!"she screamed.
Mina was slowly dieing as she kept pressure on her teammate's wound, Lita appeared "Its done I just got back. It looks I was a late."said the Sangheili female
"Get her to the Cryo bay and near Thom now. I will kick Holland's ass after I talk to Hood and Keys."she snarled.
Chief entered the room and looked at the mess "I'll take Bryan."he said.
Brittany nodded to her father as he took the crying child out of the room, she walked to Mina's desk and saw a message form Carter. The Commander of NOBLE was in tears.
"So this is what Lita ment by to late."she said.
She hit the play button to hear Carter's words
Video message
Mina, its Carter. I don't know how to tell you this, but Thom has been confermed MIA. He bravely destroied a Covenant corvet above a battlefield. Kat was also with him and was to deliver it only she was hit by a Fuel rod torpido from an enemie banshee.
Thom, took the armed bomb and flew up into the Corvet, he never made it off with what time was left. We'll bring his things to you when we return in a few days. I am deeply sorry Mina, truly I am.
Carter out.
End of Message
She slamed her fist into the desk "I warned him it would happen and now look at what he has done."she said
"There is nothing you could have done Rasha."said a voice behind her
"Eski, is it wrong for a commander to worry about her men? Is it wrong to give out a warning that another paied no heed to?"she asked.
She heard Morgan sigh "You are not in the wrong Rasha."Morgan said and left.
DXDXDXDXDDXDXDXDXDX
Emile sat up right in the bed waiting for Brittany to get off duity, the chidren were spending time with their grandfathers. Mostly his father Avery when Brittany walked in covered in blood. He bolted off the bed "Brittany, what the fuck happened?"he asked as he reached her.
She looked at him "Mina tried to kill herself. Carter got a hold of her telling her Thom was MIA."she said tears falling from her eyes.
His heart slamed against his chest as he wraped his arms around her "Brittany, I am sure Lita got to him in time."he said
"How did.."she began
"Your father told me you two were planning something like this. Your tempting fate."he told her
"I don't care, I get these priminitions to save lives not condem them to death."she said.
She was upset with him and they both needed a shower "I am sorry, I didn't mean for it to come out like that."he said.
She looked at him "I forgive you."she said as she stood on her toes to kiss him.
She broke the kiss and scrunched up her nose "You need a shower."she said pinching his shoulder
"Only if your in there with me."he said with a wolfish grin.
She smirked and took his hand "We can't use condoms in a shower."she said
"Yes we can."he said and lead her to the shower.
Thats all folks be kind and review.
