Chpt 11, part one:


Chapter 11
0314 Hours, August 4, 2524(Military Calendar)/
Atlas Medical Station, UNSC carrier Atlas

“Ma’am, Subject Seven is suffering cardiac arrest!”
“Subject Thirty Three is reacting poorly to the calcium surface coating. Am attempting to reverse affects…”
“Doctor, Number Fifty Three is overdosing on the optical enhancement solution.”
“Eighty Two failed to come out of the coma. I called it at 0307 hours.”
“Doctor, are you listening?”
“Of course Déja. I’m working on Fajhad now. I’ll help the others when I’m done.”
“I project that four of the children will die in that time period, and Subject Fajhad will still suffer irreversible damage to his nervous system.”
“I know that Déja, but he will live. As for the others, I’m concentrating on those most likely to survive.”
“With the inclusion of number Eighty Two, the list of fatalities has risen to sixteen.”
“Thank you Déja, please check on Sam, Kelly, and John.”
“All three of those subjects are within accepted parameters.”
“Good. Are any of the subjects finished?”
“Negative. Number One Seventeen is furthest along, requiring only minor augmentations and the follow up injections.”
“Doctor, Number Seven didn’t make it.”
“Thank you. Déja, are any living subjects in critical condition?”
“Negative, most are in stable condition between augmentations.”
With that, the good doctor let out a great sigh and collapsed in a nearby chair. She had been on her feet for seventeen hours and awake for fifty. Sixteen dead this far in was better than she had predicted, but still not good enough. It started to look like some were going to make it after all. John was almost out of the woods, and that’s good. No. She checked that. “For the thousandth time, I can’t get attached,” she thought aloud. Then Halsey got up and leaned on the row of monitors in front of the window. Below, seventy-five bubbles contained seventy-five children in various stages of augmentation. Sixteen of those bubbles had become tombs, and a good number more would join them. But the rest would contain the hopes of the future. After all, that’s why we’re doing this, she thought, to preserve the future. To sacrifice a few to save many. “Well, no amount of philosophizing is going to save these kids,” she stated to no one in particular. “Déja, which subject is in the worst condition?”
“Number Thirty Three, Doctor.”
“Thank you Déja.” And with that, the doctor headed to operating station thirty-three to aid the doctors there. She continued this pattern for another twenty-two hours before each candidate was either safe or dead. Then, and only then, she slept.


Feel free to correct me if I spelled someone's name wrong or used someone's number wrong. I seem to have misplaced my copy of Fall of Reach...

Chapter 12
0600 Hours, April 05, 2525(Military Calendar)/
UNSC Carrier Atlas, on patrol in the Lambda Serpentis system

Doctor Halsey entered the Spartan’s barracks on the Atlas escorted by the ODST Fred instantly recognized from their training field on Reach. “Attention.” John shouted to the group as he noticed Halsey.
“You know that’s unnecessary John.”
“Yes ma’am, I do.”
“Any way, I would like you all to meet someone. If the UNSC were your father and the SPARTAN program were your mother, this man would be your older brother.”
Fred thought about this. Doctor Halsey was the closest thing any of them had to a mother, and if this ODST was from the SPARTAN program, then, maybe the Doctor was his mother too. Clearly they all shared the same father. This man had probably been in the UNSC since the Spartans were born. But did that make this man their brother? Fred just didn’t know.
“CPO Mendez informed me you have seen what Lieutenant Simmons can do, and since you have just undergone the same augmentation he already received, you’ll find you can achieve similar results, if you’re willing to listen. The Lieutenant has agreed to help you overcome the side effects of the augmentation process during the coming weeks.”
So that’s how this man had beaten Kelly. He was a Spartan like them. No, he wasn’t like them. He was just one man; they were a team. Still, if he could help them get over this awkwardness they had been going through, then Fred was willing to listen to him.
Over the next few weeks, this ODST was there every morning to help with the calisthenics and though he didn’t say much to the Spartans, he would occasionally whisper something to CPO Mendez who would then alter the normal exercises to better suit the augmented Spartans. Fred found that calisthenics was the only time he could actually think coherently, so he decided to spend the time analyzing this new, threat wasn’t the right word, snag was more appropriate. John said anything they hadn’t trained for was a snag, and they had never trained for people to hover around their activities. The only person who took an interest in them and wasn’t on their team was Dr. Halsey. After the first day, Fred had only managed to categorize the man. He was not a threat, and he was not one of the team, but he was a superior officer. As such, Fred extended him every courtesy. Though Dr. Halsey clearly wished them to think so, this man was not a member of the Spartan family. He was a help, and he seemed to like them, but he was not their brother. During sparring, this was the only person who could fight with a Spartan without suffering serious injury. He would teach them moves as Chief Mendez yelled out orders and counter moves. For two weeks, nobody could touch the ODST, but one day Fred actually got a hit on the man. He then succeeded in getting his rear end handed to him, but it was a start. One day, the Chief began the day with and announcement. “Lieutenant Simmons will no longer be exercising with us. Otherwise, we will continue as we were. Now, jumping jacks. Begin.” And with that the ODST was gone again from their lives. What they didn’t know, is where he had gone.

He's not gonna die, I'm fairly sure of that. Or maybe I'm just messing with you. You'll have to wait to find out. I could do a contest: Post 100 times in a week or Simmons dies in the next chapter. But that's something a four year old would do. Still no suggestions, besides "don't die?" C'mon, you guys can think of something you wanna see.
