Agent Folee and the others stood.
Folee: My guess is as good as yours...although, our Agent clearance should be able to get us into the systems. Limos, get on it. Carmicle...help the wounded. Colby, lock it down with me.
Carmicle nodded and began to work his magic on Whiskey and Tango. Colby and Folee covered the entrances.
Limos headed over to one of the working terminals and began to access the system.
Limos: A lot of stuff is down...weapons, communications, security clearance systems. The Invasion force has every door open for them.
Limos paused.
Limos: Admiral are you catching all this?
Harrison was watching Limos on his helmet feed, he was picking up everything they were saying.
Harrison: Roger that, Agent.
Limos nodded and began to talk again.
Limos: So, that fifth Black Team ODST?
MacLaren: Honestly...who was he?
Harrison: Agent Limos, could you please figure out how they entered this facility?
Limos: Searching now, Admiral.
Limos was trying to access any files he could, but most of the system was down, however, he managed to scrap up the last hour of communications logs. He was reading them as fast as he could.
Limos: Holy hell...guys listen up.
Carmicle, Colby, Folee, and MacLaren all looked at Limos. Harrison leaned forward to the monitor screen from the Crimson Shadow.
Limos: According to the logs...about two minutes after our arrival in the system an unidentified Trust prowler entered the Citadel's detection grid. According to the log, the prowler provided clearance codes...but the clearance codes were that of Agent Sharpmens.
Limos paused.
Limos: According to whoever provided the codes, apparently Agent Sharpmen himself... he said that he had managed to escape the Trust destroyer inside the prowler by jumping to slipspace.
Harrison: Impossible, we would have detected the rupture.
Limos: It goes on to say that he said, and I'm quoting here, "ONI thinks I died in a crash. I was able to escape just in time by jumping to slip space with this prowler. The past thirty hours has been composed of me doing random jumps and removing the tracker on this prowler to shake the Trust. I need to get inside, officer. I haven't slept in 2 days...and I have some wounds that need attention. Now please. Let me in."
Limos paused, everyone in the room was silent.
Limos: This cannot be right Admiral...it had to have been one of the ODST Black Team members.
Carmicle: How would they have gotten his security codes? They couldn't have done that!
Harrison reread the logs, he shook his head. It couldn't be right...but there was only one other way to prove it.
Harrison: Agent Limos, can you get security footage at the moment the prowler landed in the bay?
Limos nodded, his hands warped across the terminal bringing up security footage.
Limos: Two Agents and three Medical officers went to greet him...oh my god...holy shit.
Harrison: Agent, pause that image!
Limos paused the security footage. The image being shown on the security system was of an ODST in all black...wielding a gold plated sniper rifle, with a cybernetic left arm.
Harrison: Mother of God...
Limos: Admiral...can that be..?
Harrison stood straighter, staring down at the camera feed in front of him.
Harrison: It most certainly can be...
Limos: But--
MacLaren: Could one of you please explain to the rest of us what it is that you see!?
Limos looked up.
Limos: The fifth ODST is Jacob.
