Meanwhile:

On the bridge of the Ulterior Motive, Yates was busy composing a list of orders on his PDA, getting ready to send these Orders to Reynolds, via an encrypted line.

Intel on Fireteam Harmony is required. Please attach the following information and retransmit on encrypted line...
FIRETEAM HARMONY:

>Medical history
>Psychological profiles
>Family history and known associations
>Personal logs belonging to Fireteam Harmony
>Logged personal correspondence with known associates
>Persistent updates on their current location, and access to real-time physiological information
>Technical information on encoded transmission frequencies use by Fireteam Harmony to facilitate real-time collection of intel

Aforementioned personnel is scheduled for termination. Faliure to comply with aforementioned requests will result in immediate termination of your "employment"...as well as continued efforts to terminate aforementioned personnel.

Priority 1 request...

Once Yates had drafted the messages, he immediately transmitted the request to Captain Reynolds, on the encoded line. Once this was done, Yates turned to Spender, and nodded.

Yates: We should have everything we need very shortly. Reynolds has proven this reliable thus far.

Spender nodded.

Spender: Once the information arrives...forward it to Hammer Team.

Yates: Yes sir!

On the Mind's Attrition:

Reynolds was still in his office when he got the message from Yates. He was a bit alarmed as to what the Trust needed the information for. Reynolds then talked down about the Trust, quietly, to himself.

Reynolds: "I guess the Trust can't get all the information they need by themselves."

Reynolds wasn't mad, but he did find it a little amusing that with the Trust being so superior in collecting information that they were requesting some. Reynolds wasn't going to argue though. For as much as he knew, Harmony was due for an upgrade with more weapons or armor, not helping could possibly even hinder Fireteam Harmony's success. Reynolds then began gathering and compiling the requested information about Fireteam Harmony. When the information was ready, Reynolds sent the data packet back to Yates on an encrypted channel, not thinking any more on the matter.

Jacob looked around the area as he walked straight towards the Holding Cells. He knew Anaconda was in here somewhere and as lonng as he remained calm, he was going to find him and talk to him.

After a few moments in the holding cell, Jacob saw the Consultant walk straight past him and out of a large area. Jacob grinned and walked that way and sitting in the middle of a large cell was Anaconda.

Jacob smiled, as he stood there for several moments.

Anaconda watched as The Consultant left the holding cells, and then watched as Jacob entered. Once The Consultant was out of earshot, he turned and looked at Jacob.

Anaconda: Well, well...I get another visitor. What is it about me that you Trust lackey's find so interesting?

Anaconda gave a snarl to Jacob, as he folded his arms.

Anaconda: What do you want, traitor. Make it quick.

Meanwhile:

On the bridge of the Ulterior Motive, Yates was awaiting Reynold's response. Yates was surprised when he heard is PDA vibrate so quickly after he sent the message to Reynolds. Yates was surprised by the haste in the response.

Yates: Reynolds is pretty quick with this stuff...

Spender looked over at Yates.

Spender: Very quick. However, speed is not my concern. Is the quality of information good?

Yates: Seems pretty verbose. Everything I asked for seems to be here.

Yates gave a visual check of each attachment, before he gave his final conclusion.

Yates: Yeah...it looks good.

Spender: Alright...forward it to Hammer.

Yates nodded, as he forwarded the message to hammer Team's CIC...depositing the intel right into their private database.

Yates: Done and done!

Jacob cringed a bit, but ultimately nodded at Anaconda as he walked towards the shield in front of him. He looked at Anaconda and shook his head.

Jacob: To be honest Anaconda, I'm not sure what I want.

Jacob paused.

Jacob: I thought it was to rid the universe of you and Nighthawk, but it seems that was a mistake. I thought it was to fight for a side that was doing the right thing, and I chose poorly.

Jacob paused again, he hung his head.

Jacob: I want to help you Anaconda...really I do. It's just...

Jacob chuckled a bit and looked up at Anaconda.

Jacob: You want to be rid of this ship, right? Well, so do I, but I can't do that...not yet.

Meanwhile:

Savannah had since returned to the main armory area and had begun suiting up. By the time she was done, so was the rest of the Spartan II's in the group, the III's were a bit behind, with being injured and all. Savannah knew that Liam would let it slide. She wasn't the first to get ready though, because as she looked at the holotable in the middle, the first one ready was Jessica.



Jessica was waiting towards the left of the table as the rest of the unit got ready. A rocket launcher in her hands, a magnum at her side and a taste for vengeance against Nighthawk. Their suits had been loaded with the anti-virus software and Savannah knew that Jessica wanted another hit at him, this time on fair play. Savannah then noticed Desmond walk towards the right of the table, fully decked out in his armor.



Savannah smiled as the automated MJOLNIR suite attached her helmet and began her HUD setup, by the time it was done, Savannah had opened her eyes and saw Liam, ready to fight Nighthawk and Anaconda at his workstation, getting the last bit of equipment attached to his armor.



Savannah smiled, the four of them could take down an entire army if they wanted to. Well, maybe an army if they had the fifth member of Gold team, but she had been long gone. Savannah shook her head and focused up as she went over and grabbed her assault rifle off the table, she grabbed a few extra magazines and then walked towards the right side of the table, straight across from Desmond.



Liam turned around and walked to the center of the table, leaving enough room for the other three when they were ready. Liam leaned his shotgun up against the table and then activated the holograms once more. Again, two brutes, two elites, two Spartans, and Nighthawk and Anaconda appeared, Jacob had since been excluded.

Liam: Alright, so this is how it's gonna play out.

Liam paused.

Liam: Whoever finds and engages Nighthawk first calls me.

Desmond glanced at Liam and was about to speak when Liam started to continue.

Liam: We're going to use Anaconda's capture against him...mentally.

Desmond: Going to tell him we're torturing the brute, right?

Liam shook his head and leaned on the table. He thought about what Jacob had said and it still stuck with him.

Liam: No, we're going to tell him the brute is dead.

Savannah, Jessica and Desmond all stared at Liam and Lyle, Emma, and William stopped what they were doing and looked over. Liam didn't say a word, all he did was make Anaconda's hologram disappear.

Anaconda: You want to help me?

Anaconda paused. He began to laugh.

Anaconda: I cannot even trust you. How do you expect to get me to even ACCEPT your help. The last time I saw you...you were killing all of your "former" allies.

Anaconda paused. He then growled.

Anaconda: Now, by the sounds of it, and by the looks of it, you are regretting your decision. Now your "new" allies and now your "former" allies. I count two betrayals so far. Why should I risk being betrayal number 3?

Anaconda paused.

Anaconda: You said it yourself...you wanted to be rid of Nighthawk and I. For all I know...this is part of a plot to get me killed.

Anaconda stepped closer to the energy barrier, as he leaned forward, going eye level with Jacob.

Anaconda: I don't trust you at all. You have NO CREDIBILITY!

The terminal in Hammer Team's armory had prompted with the forwarded message, alerting of new updates.

Thor: "Hello there!"

Thor pressed the button as all the information on Fireteam Harmony popped up, several dozen frames on the holotable appeared, varying from medical history, background, basic information and service record, to live feeds of the team at that moment. One of the other Spartans at the table had decided to speak up.

Man: "This Reynolds man seems pretty thorough. Looks like an added treat of livefeeds. Very useful."

Thor agreed, dismissing everything but the earliest information on Fireteam Harmony.

Thor: "Yes, he is. Perhaps worthy of being a Trust operative. He probably doesn't know what he just did, Ullr."

Woman: "He was probably thinking more about saving his own skin. Yates and Director Spender can be cruel SOBs."

Thor: "I'm not going to doubt you there, Freyja. Let's focus on the basics."

Thor maximized the service and medical histories of all of the current members, including their status.

Thor: "Fireteam Harmony, a five-man team of ODSTs actively stationed aboard Captain Marcus Reynolds' ship, the Mind's Attrition. Looks like their sniper, Staff Sergeant Brandon Sierra is now deceased..."

Ullr interjected with a compliment.

Ullr: "Wow, with a Brute Chieftain? And they destroyed a portion of the Covenant fleet in orbit? Damn, they might be worth our attention after all."

Freyja jested back.

Freyja: "You mad you never get to deal with a Brute Chieftain and the Covenant anymore?"

Ullr merely shrugged.

Ullr: "Nah, not really. They're overrated."

Freyja continued her jests.

Freyja: "That doesn't sound very 'honorable', Ullr."

As Freyja said 'honorable' she did her best to mimic and mock Ullr. Thor had them stop chatting.

Thor: "Both of you quiet and focus. Fireteam Harmony is lead by Master Sergeant Jessica Arman. She is 38 years old and born on Earth. She's served faithfully and loyally in the UNSC since she was 18."

Freyja cut back in, reading off part of Reynolds' assessment.

Freyja: "Favors shotguns and sub-machine guns. Often stonewalled and keeps the team focused on its objective. She rarely smiles and partakes in the team's games they have with each other. She has been a great asset to the ship and crew and is reliable to have in a tough combat situation."

Ullr: "So get rid of her, and the team will fall apart?"

Freyja: "Looks like it."

Freyja dismissed the assessment and looked at Thor.

Freyja: "Who is next?"

Thor thumbed through the team's roster.

Thor: "Sergeant Frazer Robertson, 29, ODST. He is now the second-in-command of Fireteam Harmony. He's specialized and certified for explosives handling and demolitions."

Freyja began to read off Reynolds' assessment of Robertson.

Freyja: "Sergeant Robertson is the team's morale officer, so to speak. He keeps the team smiling and feeling good, even in his darker moments. Occasionally, he has needed outside encouragement or praise to keep his own morale up for the team. He creates competitive games with his teammates to help lighten the atmosphere and combat. He has also recently requested to be trained in basic first aid. On a side note: Sergeant Robertson also keeps in close contact with his parents on Skopje."

Thor: "Interesting... we diminish his self-esteem and ego and the team's morale diminishes. Next we have..."

Thor thumbed to the next service record as Freyja dismissed Reynolds' assessment of Robertson.

Thor: "Corporal Richard Axlon, 30, ODST, and a native to Mars. He's the tech expert of the team and eagerly looks forward to examining new technology. He is also basic certified to pilot vehicles, both alien and Human."

Freyja brought up his assessment.

Freyja: "Corporal Axlon is referred to as 'the Geek' in Fireteam Harmony due to his skilled abilities with technology. He gets along with all of his teammates and is the closest to Sergeant Robertson, often being the fuel to Robertson's metaphorical fire."

Ullr: "Ew, that just sounds weird."

Freyja: "Yeah, I'm not going to even bother with the rest."

Freyja and Thor gladly put the information about Axlon up and pulling out the last active member's information.

Thor: "Private, Second Class Agate Cadieux, 25, ODST, native to France on Earth. Newest member of Fireteam Harmony. She did fairly well at Lafayette's Academy of Military History and Sciences in Paris, France. She's had little time out in real combat situations and was assigned to Fireteam Harmony by Reynolds."

Freyja began reading off Cadieux's assessment.

Freyja: "Private Cadieux is the youngest and newest member of Fireteam Harmony. She doesn't talk much, either preferring to stay quiet or out of discomfort around her teammates. When observed, she gets along well, often participating in Robertson's competitive games. She's a highly adaptable and capable soldier, although she blames herself for losing her helmet while boarding a Covenant Assault Carrier. She feels this event is what got Staff Sergeant Brandon Sierra killed."

Freyja stopped reading the assessment.

Freyja: "Aww the poor baby blames herself for her team member's death. How pitiful."

Thor: "That's enough Freyja. We're here to learn about these people, not ridicule them."

Freyja frowned at Thor.

Freyja: "What's the difference? I mean really, is it that big of a deal?"

Ullr: "If they boarded a CAC and destroyed a portion of the Covenant fleet, then yes, it is. We should be seriously focused on this."

Freyja threw her hands in the air, accepting her defeat.

Freyja: "Fine, what else do we have?"

Thor rummaged through the files. A devious smile lit up on his face as he looked at the rest of his team.

Thor: "How about personal logs?"

The rest of the team smiled just as maliciously. They knew they could really get into their opponent's head after they go through these.

Jacob wasn't going to deny anything Anaconda was saying, it was all true, and hearing it from a brute cut even deeper. He was a traitor, he had lost his credibility, but he had something Anaconda did not. A way out, and more importantly, information.

Jacob: You're right, Anaconda. I have lost all my credibility, I have nowhere to go. I did not originally betray the UNSC for personal gain, I saw the value in being a double Agent. I was never part of the Trust, I never wanted to be part of the Trust.

Jacob paused, he looked Anaconda in the eyes.

Jacob: But I saw an opportunity to get inside of them, to get into their ranks, their heads, their ship. I have information, I have access to battle plans, strategies, personnel profiles. It's right here.

Jacob took a step back and stared at Anaconda, never losing his composure.

Jacob: But, I have something far more important. I know what the Trust is planning to do, and I know how to stop it.

Jacob paused.

Jacob: Have you ever heard of a construct, a construct that calls itself "Vanguard"?

Jacob looked at Anaconda, raising an eyebrow.

Anaconda: Vanguard...

Anaconda paused.

Anaconda: I know that name better than you do...better than you ever will.

Anaconda paused.

Anaconda: I would rather not discuss how I know that name. It is a long story, and I would rather not get into it. However, needless to say, Nighthawk and I have known that Vanguard was here for some time. We discovered this truth after our battle with The Trust and The Covenant at Regional HQ Bravo. After we discovered that Vanguard was here, Nighthawk was able to piece together information, which suggested that The Trust was deliberately leaking information to The Covenant about Vanguard. We do not know for what purpose exactly...but Nighthawk and I both agreed, that if The Trust is leaking intel to The Covenant, then The Trust needs something from The Covenant. With that said...it is a safe bet that The Trust brought The Covenant here...to fulfill some purpose.

Anaconda paused.

Anaconda: In other words...I am not surprised that The Trust is meddling with Vanguard. They are meddling with...something I have learned to fear.

Anaconda turned away, and he growled.

Anaconda: Not something I like to admit...but it is true. I have seen Vanguard in its full glory...intact...in person...up close. It was...horrid. Never before had I seen so much destruction...so much potential for destruction. The power it commands...eclipses everything that I had ever known.

Anaconda turned back to Jacob.

Anaconda: I need to find that thing and destroy it...at all costs. It is my...duty...my responsibility to do so. I must find it! Do you know where it is? Has The Trust said anything to you?

Anaconda walked up to the energy barrier.

Anaconda: Tell me what you know Human. If you do not...we will all pay with our lives. It will destroy us all! I know this! It is a fact!

Anaconda paused again.

Anaconda: If you are really trying to help me...if you are being sincere about your admission of error about joining The Trust...then tell me everything you know. If you do...I will vouch for your act of penance if need be. As far as Nighthawk is concerned...my words carry weight...and Nighthawks words carry weight with Captain Frost...and many others in your military.

Anaconda paused.

Anaconda: He still has friends...you know. He may be able to help you get your life back...the same life you threw away.

Jacob listened intently to Anaconda, he had never seen a brute with such fear in his eyes, tremble in his words, shakiness in his steps. This was serious and Jacob knew that, he knew that even before he went to speak to Anaconda, and now, standing in front of him, it made him smile to know that Anaconda would still trust him, even a little bit. It made him smile to know that he could still help.

Jacob: I know a lot...not everything, but enough to get you up to speed I think.

Jacob paused and looked around, he made sure no one was around once more.

Jacob: Vanguard is on the Ulterior Motive, in the observation deck. They've repurposed it to allow it access to, well, basically the entire ship. They also recovered some terminal from the facility we were just at, and it's been connected to it since they brought it back. Whatever the terminal is, it's helping it get back to full power.

Jacob paused once more, until he was at the edge of the barrier.

Jacob: I talked with it, Anaconda...and it scared the living shit out of me. They don't see what it is...they only see it as a source of power, as something they can use, but I know, and I can tell you know that it cannot be used. So I am going to help you as much as I can, to get you off this ship when the time arises.

Jacob paused, he thought about the conversation with Vanguard.

Jacob: All it kept saying was that we would be destroyed by it, that we wouldn't be able to fully comprehend it, that we wouldn't be able to do anything. That even though the Trust is helping it, it will not help them.

Jacob shook his head, he turned around. He thought for a second longer and then turned and snapped his fingers.

Jacob: It mentioned something about "The Forge." I assumed it was the place it would repair itself, or rather rebuild itself, but after I started asking questions, it just stopped talking to me. I doubt it'd talk to me again, so until I can figure out where The Forge is, the only way to stop it now is to do something about this ship, about the observation deck.

Jacob paused once more, he looked at Anaconda.

Jacob: When Nighthawk comes here...and come here he will, I'm coming to you and I'm opening this barrier. I'll find you any weapons I can, but I am going to get you back to him.

Jacob took a deep breath, he thought about the men and women he just killed.

Jacob: I owe that much to the ones I betrayed.
