[Halo] New! Halo RPG Pt. 11

[Erex]

Romanov: Sir we have orders to go to Midnight. Your orders? Tylan: Wait for the others. If there is trust out there especially a Capital, we won't be able to protect ourselves very long. Wait for the crimson shadow and the others to go. Romanov: Very good sir. Until then? Tylan: We wait. Romanov: Sir, why the Crimson Shadow? Why not the King Raven, or the Infinity's voyage? Tylan: Sheer size. Crimson is one of the heaviest armed ships in the entire ONI fleet. Its also one of the fastest. So would you rather have a larger vessel protecting you if all hell breaks loose.

Meanwhile: The senior staff cleared the observation deck, leaving Harrison alone, staring into space. Harrison: Midnight...only seems viable. Harrison crossed his arms and stared into space, breathing deeply. Behind him, he noticed a glowing crimson color after a few minutes. Harrison: Enjoying the view too Shadow? Shadow walked up next to him, her hologram about a foot shorter than him. Shadow: You could say that... Harrison: What is it? Shadow: I have been thinking. What ever happened to Jacob's AI...Phoenix? Harrison: He was handed over to Captain Hayes on the Raven, why? Shadow: Interested in him...he's seven, Admiral, and he was not made like myself or HAWK. Harrison nodded. Harrison: Rampancy. Shadow: Correct. Harrison: Interesting indeed. I will ask Hayes of his plan after we move to Midnight. Shadow nodded and the two stood silently on the deck. Meanwhile: The Agent team headed to the armory to stock up on supplies, while Dallas and Tiffany headed to TF117's quarters to get the force briefed. The Agents were assembling their weapons, cleaning them, grabbing extra magazines, they wanted to be ready at a moment's notice. Carmicle: You know...we're back to five now. Limos: Unfortunately. Folee: Five Agents...on a ship with more than 3,000 crew members. MacLaren: Should be six. The group fell silent. MacLaren: I'm sorr-- Limos: Don't be sorry, it should be six. We all should have gotten off of there. Carmicle: Unfortunately we didn't, so let's get focused guys. The Trust is going to attack. Black Team is most likely going to be there, let's focus on them. We know how they fight now...let's try and fight back. Meanwhile: Lisa was making her way to the bridge of the Ulterior Motive. Once she was given permission to board, she approached Kolya. Lisa: Admiral...permission to speak.

Seth started to clean his gun. Meanwhile Tylan: Spin the slipcore once the Crimson Shadow does.

[Naked Crook]

The King Raven and The Dreadhawk came about. Both ships jumped into slipspace, one after the other. Meanwhile: Kolya turned to look at Lisa. Kolya: You may speak. What is on your mind?

[Hells Sniper]

The Crimson Shadow jumped to slipspace. Meanwhile: Lisa: Admiral, do you think Ja--Black 5 is ready for this? What if he cracks...what if he breaks? We'll lose something extremely valuable to us.

[Naked Crook]

Kolya: I have the assurances of Commander Yates that this will not happen. Kolya paused for a moment. He looked at Lisa. Kolya: I have a feeling your concern for Black 5 does not stem from the fact that he is a valuable asset...but rather...an emotional response on your part...

[Kairu]

The Infinity's Voyage entered slipspace with the rest of the task force.

[Hells Sniper]

Lisa was taken back a bit. Lisa: My relationship with Black 5 ended the same time my relationship with ONI ended, sir. I just...I want to make sure we keep him along. Lisa paused. Lisa: The drop in morale for ONI will be dramatic once they see one of their previous Agents fighting for the Trust.

[Erex]

Tylan: Engage the slip The Draco goes into slipspace.

[Naked Crook]

Kolya: I agree, with respects to morale. To see one of ONI's finest working for us...it will spread fear...and doubt throughout ONI. He is a powerful symbol as Black 5. He stands for the idea that there is no man alive that cannot be broken by The Trust. The damage that we are going to do will be unquantifiable. Kolya paused. Kolya: But...I still want this mission to succeed. Kolya looked at Lisa. Kolya: If it will make you feel better General...I could always use someone down there to...oversee this operation in my stead. If you are up to it...I can assign you to partake in this assault...I can assign you to one of the assault teams that will be going into The Citadel after Black Team clears the way for your entry... Kolya shrugged. Kolya: I would go myself...but I want to keep my appearences rare...sort of like...when I do show up...people get the idea that we are NOT there for a courtesy call...but rather, there to cause serious harm...
