[Hells Sniper]

Harrison took a deep breath. He rubbed his eyes as the comm was cut off, he leaned on the holotable and sighed. Murphy: Admiral, sir? Harrison looked up to most of his bridge crew staring at him. Harrison: What is it? The officer looked around the deck before turning back to Harrison. Murphy: Permission to speak freely, sir? Harrison nodded and stood straight. Murphy: Sir, Nighthawk. None of us are comfortable with allowing him to roam freely around. Sir, if the reports are true, we should be getting a Spartan deployment soon...and if that happens, Nighthawk and Anaconda are going to turncoat so fast we won't see it. Harrison nodded. Murphy: And if Captain Sharpmen is a traitor, how do we know he isn't feeding the Trust everything he knows right now? Harrison sighed. Harrison: You all feel this way? The bridge crew nodded. Harrison: Nighthawk is a terrorist, he is a traitor. But he has given us intel crucial to this battle. Trust me, I hate him as much as you all do. And we will take him down before he is able to take any of us down, I promise you that. He will not have the chance to turn on us. Harrison paused. Harrison: The situation with Captain Sharpmen makes no sense. Something not many of you know about him is that he had a chance to join this organization called the Trust, 17 years ago. He refused, and they put his friends to death because of it. He saved me, he saved thousands of others. And the most amazing part? He was a recruit, only training to become an ODST. Jacob Sharpmen is not the man to turn coat on his soldiers like this. Murphy: And his relationship with Nighthawk? Harrison smirked. Harrison: Almost as bad as mine. He has been betrayed by that man far too many times, and I think he thought he could do better without him. I think he thought he could get inside the Trust, get information, and get it back to us. I don't know, truly I don't. As of right now, he is a traitor, he is a rogue soldier. But, Nighthawk. Nighthawk is much worse. Harrison paused. He stared at the King Raven through the windows. Harrison: That ship's crew is giving that man too much of a warm welcome, so far as I know, we will be watching it closely. When the time comes, I will have men ready to kill that man. Harrison looked up. Harrison: If it must come to that. We will take it. Harrison shook his head. Harrison: I only hope that the rest of you will follow me still, that you understand my reasons for doing what I am doing, and that your loyalty stays true to humanity. Murphy: Sir, I think I speak for all of the crew, and most of the fleet, when I say we are with you. To the end. Harrison smiled. Harrison: Thank you. Now, back to work. AA guns? Officer: One is active, sir. The other two are still working. Meanwhile: Jacob regrouped with the rest of Black team when they flew over an AA gun location. Jacob watched the gun power up. He spoke to Black team. Jacob: Looks like the UNSC got AA up. Meanwhile: Liam decided it would be best to see the Consultant after his mission was completed, so he regrouped with the rest of the Risk-Takers. They were prepped and ready to move to the Apex center.
