Six: Yep.
But like I said. The Covenant had superiority everywhere. We were fighting a losing war.
I'm a SPARTAN-III. Eventually, casualties got so great that a third generation was greenlit. They weren't abducted, though - they were recruited from orphanages, asked if they wanted to strike back at the aliens that had taken everything from them.
No shortage of volunteers. Which is good, considering us Threes were ment to be expendable.

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."-Aura and Serenity also pick up speed-
-But the bride crew can now hear boots too-
-What do?-
-Hey Engineering, some gaurds begin to wander by you-
-Are you hiding?-
-Dash you have shot down a pair of missiles-
-A few more aproach and eve downs them-
-But now there is a whole fucking swarm of them aproaching-
Hoxton: Shit! Get down!
-Hoxton looks for a space to hide-
-at the same time, he charges the Buzzer-
-Dash keeps shooting, prioritizing missiles that are getting closer-
-There's no real time to ask questions-
Six: If it helps, I don't remember my parents. At all.
I became a killing machine. I was one of the best. So good, in fact, I was pulled from my company and used for assassinations. I could make entire cells of rebels disappear alone. They called me a "hyper-lethal vector", and the only other person with that designation was the man that saved mankind, the Master Chief.
By the way, tell me if this is getting too dark for you, I've had problems with that in the past. >_>
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."-yeah, let's say she grabbed the Ohm-
Dash: Jesus Christ!
What tracking sensors do these have?
-Dash takes a moment to reload her weapon-
-Hoxton eventually finds the janitorial closet and leaps into it-
Six: Anyways. That's the gist of it. I was a supersoldier created to fight a superior enemy.
I ended up being reassigned to another team during the defence of our fortress world, Reach, but in the end the Covenant won it the same way they won almost every other fight we battled against them - obtain space superiority, then bombard military and population centers from orbit with plasma beams that vaporized the surface into a glass-like material.
If you went to one of them right now, you'd see nothing but a massive expanse of white. A jagged, reverse sky.

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."Six: Yeah.
I died on Reach. And woke up somewhere else. Not gonna question why, and for the time being, no intent to find out what resurrected me.
-Six and Bulla are currently inside a capsule cottage-
-It is probably not going to be as easy as just stumbling on them-

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."Eve: Visual, steered by the ships AI.... we are lucky that one missed at all. ._.;
-the crate slams down in the hanger-
-The pair of gaurds wander right by you engineering crew, they dont even check the suply closet-
-As for bridge crew-
-Bad news that wasn't the guard, it was it was the janitor-
-And scruffy is mumbling about having to still clean the ship even though she is going to be decommissioned-
-And shuffling through his keys-

Bulla: "So humanity put its differences aside and fought together against that new foe?"
Starling: ~follows Serenity, continuing to clap~
~the other members of the Bridge Team will find it much less physically taxing to run fast as long as they hear her~
