kicks aside a piece of rubble, revealing a hidden tech cache beneath. Glances at gunnery sergeant Johnson, grinning. "Fuckin’ jackpot. You ready to dive in, or what?"
Yes Ms. Ramirez! she jumps in the hole
shakes head Don't call me Ms. Ramirez, call me Gunnery Sergeant Ramirez. And get your ass over here, we've got work to do.
Okay! Sorry! she started helping to gather everything
we gather everything we can, then make our way back to the Pillar of Dawn. Once we're aboard, we can figure out how to reactivate the spartan program."
I know how but it would take time
"Alright, we don't have much time, so let's get moving. We'll need to find a suitable location to set up a makeshift lab and retrieve any remaining spartan candidates."
Well that’s easy you already know where they were last kept
"Good. Lead the way, Private. We'll retrieve those spartan candidates and bring them back to the Pillar of Dawn.
All of them should be in cryogenic sleep chambers
leads the way towards the location of the cryogenic sleep chambers, scanning the area for any signs of danger "Keep your guard up, Private.
Right she had one on her back this way
spots movement in the distance and immediately raises her assault rifle "Halt! Who's there?"
W-Who..who are you?! they spot master chief but his armor was all dented up
lowers her assault rifle slightly "Damn, Master Chief. What happened to you?"
Well she had to sacrifice herself to save me
takes a step forward, placing a hand on Master Chief's battered shoulder "Damn, Linda. You really went through hell to save Murato, huh?"
But we thought you died 3 years ago
pauses for a moment, a mix of emotions crossing her face "Yeah, well... miracles happen, right?
Where did you hide the other ones?
narrows her eyes, crossing her arms "I'm afraid that information is classified, sweetheart. But rest assured, they're safe."
Okay but I need them I missed them
softens her expression, placing a hand on Murato's shoulder "I understand, Murato. Trust me, I miss them too.
takes a deep breath, her voice filled with determination "We may have left them behind, but that doesn't mean we can't bring them back.
pauses for a moment, contemplating her next words "We'll have to gather as much information as we can about their current status and location. As Alexandra and Murato begin their investigation, they uncover a shocking revelation about the true fate of the missing personnel, revealing a sinister conspiracy within the UNSC.
But why wouldn’t they tell us?
grits her teeth, clenching her fists "Because someone high up wants to keep it hidden. But we won't let them.
…but who would dare try to kill my Spartans? her voice got shaky
grabs Murato's shoulders firmly, meeting her gaze "Murato, listen to me. I won't let anyone hurt your Spartans.
I know but I should’ve been there with them…
gently cups Murato's face in her hands "I understand your guilt and pain, Murato. But blaming yourself won't change anything.
sniffles, wiping her eyes I... I know, Alex. I just... I feel responsible.
holds Murato tightly, providing a comforting embrace "You're not alone in this, Murato. We're in this together. We'll find out the truth and make things right. I promise you that."
Can we please go see if they are still alive?
squeezes Murato's shoulder gently "Of course, Murato. We'll do everything we can to find out if they're still alive.
falls to her knees, tears streaming down her face "Please, Alex... please tell me they're still alive..."
drops to her knees in front of Murato, gently wiping away her tears "I promise you, Murato, I won't stop until we find out what happened.
whimpers, burying her face in Alexandra's chest "Thank you, Alex... I trust you."
wipes away her own tears, taking a deep breath "Okay, Murato. We need to gather as much information as possible.
sniffs, nodding "Okay, Alex... let's do this."
stands up, grabbing her assault rifle "Alright, Murato. First, we need to access the UNSC database. It might hold some crucial information.
