6ix and 5ive were sitting in the Pelican, taking down Phantoms and Banshees when 5ive said, "Umm, 6ix?"
"What is it, 5ive?" 6ix asked.
"Vampire."
"Vampires don't exit."
5ive sighed. "No, I meant the Covenant ship."
"Oh…Right…I knew that…" 6ix did a loop-de-loop, ended up behind the Vampire, and opened fire. The Covenant ship blew up in a purple explosion. "Got it!" 6ix called out. She looked over her shoulder to see 5ive sitting on his head. "Seatbelts save lives, 5ive. Seatbelts save lives."
5ive groaned and stood back up. He turned to see a whole army of Elite's equipped with dual energy swords, Ghosts, Wraiths, and Revenants. "6ix," he squeaked.
"What?" 6ix asked over her shoulder.
"There's a lot of them…"
6ix shot the Banshee she had been following and performed a 180. 6ix just stared at all the Covenant. "Wow," she said. "That is a lot."
"Blast 'em."
6ix looked at the 'no ammo' light flashing and sighed. She knew what she had to do. "5ive," she said before taking her helmet off.
5ive looked up. "Yeah, Rin?"
"Your jet-pack working?"
"Of course. Why?"
"5ive."
5ive was getting worried now. "What?"
"I need you to do me a favour."
5ive raised an eyebrow. "Sure, what is it?"
"I need you to give them hell."
5ive suddenly understood. "Yes, ma'am.
"Get outta here."
5ive nodded. He walked towards the back of the Pelican before looking over his shoulder. "6ix." 6ix didn't even look this time. "You give them hell too."
6ix chuckled. "Will do."
5ive jumped out of the Pelican and started aiming for the water. If his jetpack doesn't work, he at least doesn't want to break his neck. He switched on his jetpack, slowed to a stop, and landed safely on the ground. He turned to see Rin drive the Pelican into the army of Covenant, wiping out every last one of them. 5ive chuckled. "Nice." He saw a lone Ghost still partially intact, hopped on it, and drove off towards the massive building.
Twenty-one years earlier…Rin came walking out of the restroom, saw Luke brawling with a kid she had never seen before, and sighed. "Luke, you tool." She walked up to Luke, by this time he and the stranger were being held back by Marines. "Luke, why?"
"Why what?" he asked.
"Why are you so stupid?"
Luke shrugged. "You know this kid?" asked a Marine.
"Yeah," she admitted, "he's my brother's friend."
James' eyes widened. "Don't drag me down with him!"
Halsey shook her head. "I'm very disappointed with you, Lucas." Luke's eyes dropped. She turned to Sam. "You too, Samuel."
Sam looked away. Rin sighed again. "I'm sorry, Dr Halsey. It won't happen again."
Halsey smiled at her. "I know."
