And so, Achronos lifted the banhammer high above his head, exclaming "You shall not sully these forums again!" And with one, deft blow, he brought the banhammer down upon the offender, and slew him.

Bah, what's the point? You're only goingt to troll, flame or E-raip me.

"So... What exactly are you, Jun ?" Halsey said, surveying the new Spartan with eagle sharp eyes, a stare which would have phased any of Halsey's spartans, but not Jun. He fixed her and stared back through his visor.

"That's Classified, Ma'am." He replied.

Halsey snorted, a reaction that startled her, and, seemingly, the pilot of her craft. The Pelican bobbed, causing halsey to lose her balance and fall into Jun's arms.

"Classified my arse!" She said, struggling to regain her posture. "If someone's using my research, I need to know! They could be doing anything with my spartans!"

"Ma'am, If I told you, Colonel Ackerso- oops." He stopped dead, knowing he'd said to much.

"Ackerson..." She said, her voice now laced with anger. Jun tensed on his rifle, sensing confrontation. Halsey turned, a small smile on her face.

"Your commander said you talked too much. Thank you for that... Tidbit." She said.

They were interrupted by the pilot, who swung the pelican into a tigh, banking turn, slamming halsey and Jun into a weapon rail. There had been no warning from the pilot; but both saw the threat clear as day. Two banshees, emitting their distinctive wail, rolled into an attack formation behind Halsey's aircraft. Jun pushed Halsey to the floor, snatched up his rifle, and fired a volley of shots at the lead banshee.

"Damn, he's good." Halsey whispered watching his shots hit the banshee's gravity pods, sending it cartwheeling into it's wingman. Jun stood against a flash of brilliant blue plasma, his silhouette magnificent as he called down to the enemies;

"That's for Kat, you Bastards!!"

Suddenly,Jun tumbled forward, blown away by a fuel rod round which had detonated against the pelican's wing tanks. Halsey was glad for one thing; the explosion had destroyed the attacking Banshee, but that wasn't going to stop Jun's rapid descent into the dust and flames below.

"Damn it! I was so close." She whispered to her self, then, turning to the cockpit, she shouted; "Take us back, we need to pick him up!"

"Negative, Ma'am." The voice was shockingly familiar, a memory from her Spartan-II selection process. She tried to recall the name, and, in a flood, all the details of this spartan appeared in her mind. Olivia, 002, Green team pilot. She had escaped when she was nine, using a captured pelican, and, with no previous flying experience, had destroyed 3 falcons and an AA gun before she was recaptured. An amazing pilot, she was also an excellent sniper, competing with Linda for days on end at the range -She was always beaten, of course- and providing overwatch for green team missions.

"I have orders to get you home safe. Don't worry, he can take care of himself. I've seen him in action." She said, trying to calm down the doctor.

"So you-" Halsey started

"Know what or who he is? Hell no, ma'am. But I do know he's one helluva shot, and resourceful, too. He'll be fine." Her calm voice concealing the unending struggle the pilot was fighting with the aircraft.

"Next stop, castle base" Halsey whispered, hoping that last part was true. She'd hate to lose another spartan, even if it wasn't hers.

3 is the loneliest number...
but not for long.


"That was quite a fall, spartan." A voice whispered. Jun's vision was coming back; a white light through pitch darkness, gradually widening to form a blurred humanoid figure. It looked vaugely alien, and this triggered a lightening fast response. His hand leapt from his side, fingers bunched ready to hit out at his attacker. It was countered with equal speed; Jun felt his body twist downward and his arm pulled behind him with a jolt of pain.

"Don't try it, Mark III." The surpise had cleared Jun's vision, and, as he unraveled, somewhat like a child's yo-yo toy, he saw his attacker; a human in a black set of SPI armour.

"SPI armour..." He whispered. Jun hadn't seen that in a long time. The last person he'd seen wearing it, along with two-hundred and ninety-three others, was dead, melted into the crust of some god-forsaken planet on the edge of UNSC space, like every other company now. All dead, never to fight the covenant again.

"Yes, SPI. My old suit was damaged in a little... Skydiving incident." The spartan replied, humour in his voice and a small smile on his face.

"I'm Mick, by the way." He said, holding out his gauntleted hand. Jun took it, and pulled himself up, holding back a wince. This "Mick" had one hell of a grip.

"I'm-" Jun started, trying to reply.

"Jun, Sniper of noble team. I know." Mick said with a hint if a childhood know-it-all. Before Jun's training, he would have knocked this smart arse out there and then; Brawn beat Brain on his homeworld. It was how things worked, having to fight for every last scrap. But instead, Jun simply stifled the urge and replaced it with curiosity.

"How do you know that?" Jun asked him unable to hold it any longer. "And how d'you know I'm a spartan-III?"

"It's simple, really." Mick said, with a flair in his eyes. He breathed deep; this was going to be a long explaination.

"There are only two spartans-IIs of your height; I watched one of them get their brains blown out at harvest; and the other's in space, with John-117. So you're not an S-II. You can't be an orion candidate either; you're too young. So, the logical conclusion is that you're an S-III." Mick paused, letting his deduction sink in.

"And the name? I found your dogtags. Here." He continued, holding out two thin pieces of metal that held everything Jun new about himself.

"Erm... Thanks..." Jun said, unable to say much more.

Both, suddenly, span at a familiar, gutwrenching sound. It was the terrifying rumble of a covenant in-atmosphere slipspace jump, a noise that could only mean one thing; death.

Out of the rupture came a covenant corvette, trailing smoke, fire and plasma from gaping holes in its hull, the bright, electric blue fire in amazing contrast to the deep purple metal the luxury ship was burnished in. The forward plasma cannons fired, and Jun realised that it was flying at something; that "Something" being a massive covenant carrier in the process of burning ONI's RAILYARD XARF (Experimental Aircraft Research Facility) to the ground.

The ship had no time to manouever as the bolts splashed against it's shields, burning away a section of the hull. Mick's eagle eyes picked up the slightest change in course of the corvette; it was heading right for the damaged section. Dozens of escape pods, aircraft and bodies ejected from the corvette's cunningly disguised shuttle bays, creating a wave of makeshift, radar-disrupting chaff, jamming the carrier's already stretched weapon systems. Plasma launched from both sides, and both hit one another, burning away hull plating; but it didn't matter. The corvette slammed into the carrier, it's momentum pushing the craft off course.

"Look." Mick said, pointing. Then he saw it; slowly coming into view. A black dot, trailing smoke. It was getting closer to them, and Jun thought he made out wings; very short, angular wings, followed by the familiar, blocky shape of a pelican.

"A pelican?" He said, trying to focus his visor. He was startled when, as all MJOLNIR armour did, he opened up a secure channel to the aircraft, and the Comm. crackled to life.

"Now for the fun part." A voice whispered through the static filled transmission. The corvette's slipspace drive detonated, slicing away the summit of Mt. Silonite, and ripping the carrier in two. The debris dissapeared into the strange non-dimensions of slipspace, killing everything onboard with a flash of radiation.

"Well, at least the bloody covenant stuff works." Said the voice, now startlingly familiar.

"I know that voice..." Said Jun, still staring at the devastation caused by one tiny ship. He saw Mick out of the corner of his eye turn to him with a whisper;

"So do I. Hard to forget a best friend."
