All comms to the Blue Moon went dark, something was wrong,. Without MAC cannone support, Lupi like us in Alpha-Pack are like pups compared to the training of the insurectionists."Ok team, ship has gone dark, possibly to keep hidden from rebel scanners, we'll have to continue this op ourselves." I said, this was not ok, but the team had to be reassured, for the mission, and for our ticket home."Chief, I noticed something going on between the ship and the UNSC infiltrator. What if he knew about the mission, and what if he's shut down the ship? This is bad, sir." Jet said, Lux went prone and I did the same." Chief, are te there?" Jet asked, his HUD had gone dark, and his comms shut too."Sam here, it's a mess down here, these rebels must be preparing to strike, there are crates of munitions in here, over." Sam buzzed on comms, these rebels must really hate us to be preparing with that much firepower. Ok Lux, we'll sposta up when that patrol moves da us." I ordered, the patrol was two rebels and a deployable MG."These Lupi are armed to the teeth, they make us, despite the augments and armor, look like pups!" Lux detto through comms, just then Jet's HUD showed up again."Chief, I got an AI that says it needs to talk to you."He detto as soon as the link from the comm net between the team to him opened up."Ok, I'll check it out after we're done here."I replied to him, I needed to coordinate what all of us were doing, talking to the AI could keep me from completing the objective before the deadline."But I think it's rather serious, o would te rather I discuss it with the rebels? Now, the ship has gone dark, and I am guilty for that, but there is something aboard the ship's electronics that caused me to go rampant and leave the ship."The AI said, I was thinking that it was lying, but maybe telling the truth."Ok, so how do we know we can take your word on it?"I asked it."Because I could have alerted all the rebels of your presence if I weren't on your side." It said, I noticed it was a female voice, and kind of sarcastic."I called in a pilot, specifically for you, 117." She said, I was getting a little annoyed because we needed the intel, and this location burned."Why me?" I asked."Because te are important, the Office of Naval Intelligence has a mission for te and your team, the mission is yours if te accept. Now, are te going to get on the pellicano, pelican o did our pilot waste fuel to get here and to fly back?" She said, I couldn't leave my team here, it's a group of Betas without an Alpha to lead them."Chief, we'll handle it, if it's from ONI themselves then it's più important than this 'burn after reading' op." Lux said. I could leave Lux in charge while I take this mission alone."I accept, now tell me where to go..." I paused."KIM, I'm the AI from the Blue Moon." KIM detto "Now hurry, he won't wait here forever, get to the LZ now for your extraction to the ONI stealth-corvette before your time is gone." KIM added, I had to quietly rush to the LZ where the pellicano, pelican was waiting, and getting a new person to greet-and-meet. "Hey there Spartan, welcome to the 343 Lightning B0lt!" An ODST detto through the cargo speakers, he already sounded like a good guy to be around, o maybe a troublemaker. "Name is James Black, o my ODST pals call me BlackJack, because every time I gamble, I always win. Now find your chair so we can get this bird back to it's nest, KIM'll brief te on the details of your future deployment." Black said. And so as we lifted off, I saw the Blue Moon's power return, and the waypoint markers over my teams' locations vanish as I got disconnected from them. I was in for something big, but it might be bigger than what even the ONI officials could comprehend.(END OF MARK 1...MARK II COMING SOON!)[And thanks to Omegaleader, Lux2, SpottedTail139, AlphaWolfCurt, KingSimba4Ever9, Ricoh_Alpha_626, Mitsi1991, and I am seriously having trouble remembering who Sam's creator is.]
