Chapter 8 NAME "Shit Happens" Part 4

Tar-Tun:

=heads to the bridge=

zeru won't mind...

Scythe:

i don't know just a hunch...



(lol, get it? old people have hunched backs!)

=The cell doors closed, seamlessly into the wall. The guard moved to an intercom system, linked to the cells=

*Guard*
You'll all get three meals, one in the morning, noon, and evening. Showers will be first thing after breakfast. Also, in light of the fact that you guys are off-worlders, and we mean that in the most respectful way, a book has been left in each of your cells. It is a copy of the laws here on Haven.

=he ended the little speech, and exited the cell block=

"Two hundred ships, that's an impressive number. Either way I am still going to glass your entire Planet"

Xzan sat there with his arms folded and started smiling at his comment.

(Jason)
=I smiled, and took off my helmet, so he could see my silver eyes=
If that's the case, then i see no real reason in letting you leave, much live. It would undoubtedly be in the interests of me and my people, if you died, and never began such an attack.

(Lana)
=I sat up a bit more=
Well, how about this, do you know who you are?

Scythe: Kurbis Stenzier?


Tar:

=continues walking to the bridge=

(Lana)
=i nod=
Do you know who I am?

Scythe: Lana Stenzier?


Tar:

=enters the bridge=

Yo Zeru!

(Lana)
=I nod=
And do you know what we are going to do, in the future?

Scythe:

rot in the ground? no just kidding, that's inevitable. uhh.... get off this ship?


Tar:

yeah can i use the ship's comm?

(Lana)
=i nod again=
And do you know what I am, to you?

Xzan smiled and stood up.

"Is that a threat Demon?"

Xzan unsheathed his blades and so did his fellow warriors.

"This would be most unwise human!"

(Jason)
=I raised my arm, and the energy blade formed around it, becoming a long, glowing blade of plasma. My shield formed along my other arm. At the same time, nearly every other guard in the room primed their weapons=
Sheathe your weapons. I don't want to fight, but if you insist, then I will oblige you.

=I straightened my arm, and the blade, at least to me, seemed to grow in length=

Scythe:

your my wife.


Tar:

well, good, i'm gonna comm xazhi....

(Lana)
=I cuddle up against him=
Yes, I am. Now, still think you're senile?

Xzan nodded and smiled at him, he did not realise what he had.

"I have four overshields Demon, they are above normal Spartan ones as well!"

He got in a battle stance, as did the others around him.

"It is up to you human, you make the choice?"

(Jason)
I wear Forerunner armor, and my men use Forerunner weapons. All we want is peace, but if you do wish for a fight.........
=we stared eachother down, the Elite and I=

Scythe:

what's your point? senile people aren't married or somethin'?



Tar:

cool,

=accesses the comm unit=

{hey xazhi you there?}

(Lana)
Noooo, my point is that you know what's what, senile people don't. Duh.

=i smile jokingly=

[Uneventful so far, but then shit happens for no reason at the oddest times...

Diana: =paniked= I picked up a distress call, but thought you should hear it.

@Diana =alert= On an encrypted channel? Play it.

Diana: Okay. Here it is.

=message playing out=

Quote :

This is Griffen 4-3-9, in need of immediate assisstance. We have wounded and need extraction now! I say again we have Spartans down. This is Griffen 4-3-9 asking for assitance from any UNSC ships within range of this signal... =static=...we need help now, Griffen out!

Oh God no...That isn't good at all

@Diana =urgent= Get on that signal, now! Trace the coordinates and jump to them, now!

Diana: Got it. But why the urgency?

@Diana I know who is sending that signal. And I'll be damned if I leave them to die.

Diana: Copy that. Setting coordinates. Jump in 5...jumping.

=We head into slipspace=

Hold in there Gold Team. I still got your back, and that is a promise I intend to keep...

=In slipspace, headed for Gold Team=

Looks like the past has come back to haunt me...

=I replay the message=

Damnit Gold, you were taught better than this...use your heads

=I grab my gear=

@Diana I'll keep you in the ship for this one. These are my own, and I have a promise I intend to keep

Diana: Copy that. Put the ship in autopilot, and I'll do the rest.

@Diana =I initiate autopilot= Done. The ship is yours. So just be ready if it hits the fan.

Diana: You got it, hero.

=I put on my armor, and get ready=

Here I come Gold Team, Matt Davis is back in buisness....

Scythe:

so senile can't remember the name of their own wife?

(Lana)
That's my understanding, yeap.

Scythe:

well guess what honey, your older than me! *cackle*

= i poke her jokingly=

=The Azure Comet pulled out of Slipspace over Haven. The size difference was noticeable, and the ship was also much more identifiable by the fact that its name was on either side. They approached, slowly, casting a large shadow down onto the planet below=

(Lana)
=i mock shock and poke him back, starting to giggle=
Nuh-uh! I am notokaymaybeIam.

Scythe:

*chuckle* told you!


Tar:

........................

(Silver Light)
=A massive ship exited slip-space over Haven. it was larger than any ship I had ever seen. A massive alert went out, and the fleet scrambled, as well as the Main warships, and every Sentinel I could muster=


(Jason)
=I heard the base alarms ringing. It meant we were under attack=
Crap, why now?

=I stared back at the Elite=
Look, we can do this now, or later. But I have my forces to rally. So if you don't mind.......

(Lana)
=i chuckle as well=
Yes you did.

=i put my arms around him again and rest my head on his chest=
And for that, you only get a hug and a cuddle.

"I honor death human. The Gods watch over me, can you say the same?"

Xzan sheathed his blades once again, and sat back down on the grubby chair. He looked to his Nano-Pad and smiled.

"Hurry, before I decide to end this human. Do what you must!"

Scythe: aww, really?

(Lana)
=i nod=
Mhmm. Unless you can convince me otherwise.

Alpha, are you sure this is the correct place?

Im sure of it.

Alright. I shall wait for them to initiate communications.

=The Azure Comet sat silent, slowly drifitng towards Haven. Its name became visable as it closed in=

scythe:

hmm.... don't think i can...

(Lana)
Are you sure about that?

(Jason)
Thank you.
=I got my helmet back on, and commed Silver=

Silver, teleport me to the airfield. I need to take a transport up to the Silver Hawk, now!
=it didn't take long. Golden light surrounded me, and seconds later, I was on the airfield, outside a transport. Even from below, I could see the ship above in space. It was huge, and some of my men remembered the sight. I got on the transport, and we lifted off to the Silver Hawk, still above Alpha Base. We landed, and I made my way to the bridge, issuing orders all the way. When I reached the bridge, the ship had already risen with the rest of the fleet, and we confronted the new ship. I opened a channel=

This is Jason Shepard, Commander of all Military forces on Haven. State your business here, or we will open fire!

=the fleet gathered in a loose formation, while the main Forerunner ships took position behind the fleet, forming a circle=

=has the crew get to their stations and has the ship head out and stand well to the right side of the haven fleet=


god dam that was fast

Xzan leant over to the Minor on his left.

"We must inform the Fleet. Tell the Arbiter to initiate the Glassing"

The Minor nodded and grabbed the Admiral's Nano-Pad. He started to type a few things in.

"Let us explore this wretched base!"

Xzan and the others exited the room, to explore the base in fuller detail, whilst commanding his Minors to inform the Fleet of the situation, and to give them the order to start Glassing the Plant immediately.

=The guards in the room would have followed the Elites, but frankly, they had more pressing things to attend to, like the massive ship in orbit over their home=
