[Naked Crook]

Tye was in the passenger compartment of Nighthawk's Vulture when he heard Dark's recommendation. Tye responded to Dark via the comm. Tyber: What about the Marines who are with you Dark? What happens to them when you open the rear hatch and expose them to the vaccum of space!? Are you really going to kill your own people just so you can be a hero? Tye paused. Tyber: We already have a plan Spartan. Stand down, and stick to what was previously agreed upon. We are going to do this without ejecting our men into space! Tye sighed and he shook his head. Cameron simply laughed. Meanwhile: Anaconda looked back at Jacob. Anaconda: That weapon you have...that blade... Anaconda paused. Anaconda: If I am not mistaken...that weapon has the ability to repel Human projectile weaponry. I am not sure how it works...but I know what I was told. It can also do a bunch of other things...but there is not enough time to get into it. Anaconda grunted. Anaconda: We should get moving. We should not stay in once place for long. Let's find The UNSC...and then go from there. Anaconda held the Gravity Hammer in his hands as he walked out of the R&D lab. Meanwhile: Nighthawk was in the cockpit of his Vulture. His Vulture was flying right at The Ulterior Motive. Nighthawk frequently check his sensor readout, making sure that the other Pelican's were right behind him. Nighthawk looked out the front window of his Vulture, as he saw that they were quickly closing in on The Ulterior Motive. Nighthawk: Frost, harrison...we are 20 Km away from The Uloteior Motive, and closing. Just keep those point defenses busy long enough for us to land in his main hanger bay. Nighthawk's Vulture, along with the other Pelican's were quickly closing in on The Ulterior Motive. They were less than three minutes away at their current velocity. Meanwhile: On the bridge of The Ulterior Motive, Spender was hearing a litany of reports coming in from his officers. Kolya: Our main engines are offline. Harrison hit our engines with a barrage of Shiva warheads. We are going to need a few minutes to purge the EM radiation and reinitialize. Yates: We have minor hull breaches across the ship. However, emergency bulkheads are responding. Spender scoffed. Spender: God damn idiots know not what they are impeding. Spender paused. He was juggling a lot of information at the moment, and he needed to prioritize. Spender: Spender: The UNSC is going to board this ship. Get every available person on this ship prepped and armed for combat! Notify Black Team that they are to locate the main point of entry and engage any hostile forces! Spender paused. Spender: Kolya...drop everything you are doing and find The Consultant! Organize as many soldiers as you can, and help The Consultant get Vanguard off this ship! Kolya nodded, as he ran off the bridge. Spender: Yates...contact the soldiers we sent down to ONI Installation Tropic. Tell them that returning to the ship is far too dangerous, and that they are to instead consolidate at ONI installation Mediterranean. Inform them that they are to perform a scorched Earth Contingency at Tropic...and they are to move everything of value to Mediterranean! We must now consolidate all of our forces at The Forge! Spender paused. Spender: Go, now! Yates: What about you? Spender: I am going to try and save The Ulterior Motive. We are going to need a ship when this is all said and done. The Ulterior Motive is built tough, so she still has a lot of fight in her. Coupled with the fact that The UNSC will NOT destroy this ship with their people still on it, we can use that to our advantage! I am going to try and get us to safety, away from the UNSC> Spender paused. Spender: Hopefully...the Stealth generator will be repaired by then.
