Doc's Giant
Chapter 6
Bad Day
Halsey slid the door open and was disoriented when she was looking at a green and black mass of metal and leather. It was a Mjolnir mark VI. she thought it might have been another Spartan but the white 117 that ran across its chest was proof that John was under it. It wasn't strange that the Spartans wore the armor even out of combat but she could tell it had something to do with earlier. Halsey told herself now would be as good as any time for her to try and get on speaking terms with John. Before she spoke John looked both ways seeing that the corridor was clear he pushed Halsey back into the room. To say that Halsey was scared would be an understatement. Knowing perfectly well what a Spartan could do to her she deemed it best to not make him any more angry then he possibly was. John pulled off his helmet and spoke in a soft tone.
"Ma'am I just wanted to say that my behavior was out of line earlier today and I am sorry. You won't have to worry about me again. You probably would like a new Security chief and I understand if you think a court marshal would seem fit. But now I am under orders to bring you to Captain Victor. Please follow me."
John left the room before giving Halsey a chance to reply. Halsey follow the walking tank and thought about what just happened. 'Damn it Halsey you idiot. Now he thinks I'm going to court marshal him. Well this is just great I might as well have sent this one down in a drop pod with no shoot. Just stick to the original plan and hopefully it'll work.'
The had reached the bridge and the doors slid apart. The bridge was nothing too special just a Paris frigate bridge. Halsey stepped into the room and tripped on the opening door almost making a fool of herself. Luckily John had caught her and set her in her feet. They shared a moment and for once was was that her clumsiness. They both walked in to the bridge and John snapped a salute and spoke
"Sir, Spartan 117 and Dr. Halsey reporting as ordered sir."
A man in a white uniform turned and looked at them. He was a older man in his late 60s. He had thinning blonde hair, brown eyes, and a scar that ran down his face. He returned the salute and thanked both of them for coming.
"Dr. Halsey it is good to see you again you may have remembered that I was the man she escorted you on Operation Gold Rush."
Halsey didn't like where this was going. She remembered Gold Rush to well. It was back in her younger years. She was already on bad terms with John and she didn't need him to hear about this incident. Nodding she stuck out her hand
"Yes Captain, I remember you. You showed bravery and loyalty when I did not."
The officer didn't shake Halsey's hand but instead crossed them
"That's not what I remember you saying back then. As I recall you called me an idiot and stupid dog for not want to waste my troops and suicide runs and not leaving them when thing turned bad."
Out of the comer of Halsey's eye she could tell John stiffen up. 'Can this day get any worse?' Then Cortana holographic figure popped up on a display in the middle of the room turning the lights red yelling
"Brace for impact. Battle stations!"
But it was too late. There was a loud explosion followed by the ship jerking to the right. Everyone started falling but John caught Halsey by her waist before she hit the ground. Sirens blared as everyone collected themselves and ran to there battle stations. The captain picked himself up and dusted himself off
"Cordina report!"
"A single Covenant Flagship as just dropped out of slipspace and open fired. Deck 1 and 2 are fractured and 3, 4 , and 1 report fires. And it Cortana."
"Whatever Cortanga. Ready the Mac Cannon. Full speed ahead."
"Readying Mac Cannon. Full speed ahead."
"Spartan have a team of yours be ready for boarding in bay 2. Our weapons can't destroy it from the outside but if we can punch a hole you can from the inside."
"Yes sir."
John spun on his heels and walked out of the bridge with Halsey close behind. John barked orders to blue team to get geared up and to meet him in bay 2. Noticing Halsey John slowed his walk and spoke to her.
"Ma'am it's not safe for you here I am asking you to head to your quarters and remain there till we are off red alert."
"John listen, I-I have to say something to-"
"No time please ma'am go now."
"No John! I am not moving till you listen to me."
"Fine then."
John just picked up the woman tossed her over his shoulder and ran her to his quarters. Typing in the code the door slid open, placed Halsey on his bed and ran out locking the door behind him. She quickly got up and tried to u lock the door. When she found she couldn't she pounded her fist on the door screaming if anyone could hear her. Maybe she would court marshal him.
