It's been a month now since our separation from Commander Wolf and the 3rd Marine Battalion. We are all in high spirits and rarely argue. "Hey Ish I'm uploading this new planet's information to your map."
"Yeah I got it thanks Jenny." As I looked it over I saw that it was livable. "Hey Hec did you get that atmospheric shield up on the shrike yet?"
"Yeah Ish its up and running, why?"
"I want you to do a quick upper atmosphere scan of this planet."
"Sure, information received I'm in. Open hanger doors Jenny." We heard the mechanical whine of the door opening. While Hec went off scouting I did inventory. On my HUD our Inventory showed up:
Unit weapons Load Out
Available: 4 assault rifles All Customized Assault Rifles are silenced and have a Zoom scope
Pistol ammo Peter-4 plasma grenades, 8 fragmentation grenades, Assault rifle (customized one), plasma pistol
Max-4 plasma grenades, 8 fragmentation grenades, plasma rifle, plasma pistol

"Hey, Jenny, pop open the hanger I'm back with a report for Ish." For the second time we heard the whine of the door. Once the hanger was pressurized Hec dropped down and gave me a disk. I pushed it into the ceiling terminal and it started. First there was a map with local terrain then it gave reports on the atmosphere. It was oxygen so I gave the order to land on an open plain. "Alright men get ready to set up a perimeter. Shadow takes the tank on a scouting mission." Once our perimeter was made Jenny cloaked the pelican. "Sir, I've found something that looks like an ammunition dump. You might want to head over here." I looked at my squad, "Hec get in the shrike and make sure there aren't any traps on the way. Mark, we're going to check it out everyone else stay here defend the LZ." As Mark and I were walking we saw Hec's shrike zoom off towards the nav point. It was a quiet fifteen minute walk towards the tank. Once we got there we saw dozens of crates full of covenant supplies. I grabbed the comm., "Hey Jenny bring everyone and the pelican over here we found some supplies."
"Hey Ish, I found a warthog over here you want me to bring it with us?" I laughed, "Of course!" There was a roaring sound and the pelican appeared and began landing. I walked over to the warthog which was in perfect condition. "Hey someone bring me my tools, I'm going to make this warthog better." Mark brought my tools and some jackhammers. "I figured you would want it to be able to do serious damage." As everyone else was gathering things and stowing it in the pelican I was working on our brand new warthog. I pretty much took it apart to salvage pieces. I rebuilt it with more weapons then any other warthog. Instead of one gunner there were two and they had shields built in behind them so they had extra cover. They each had control of one jackhammer and One LAAG. After a few more weeks on the planet we were ready to go. Now we had one tank, a warthog, and a shrike. On the last day we loaded up as much as we could and attached spare crates to the tank passenger seats. When Mark was getting on the pelican a sniper contrail led straight to his chest, but it came at an angle where it went straight through. He fell off the pelican, but wasn't hurt because of the armor everyone had. "Freeze right there." No one knew where the voice came from until a squad of Spartans stepped out of the woods. In a blink of an eye Peter grabbed skull buster from me and shot the other Spartans sniper rifle out of his hands. He walked over and asked, "Who are you?" The Spartan took a step back, "Peter!? What are you doing with these traitors?" Peter shook his head, "Andrew you got this wrong. The commanding officer tried to get us killed off on a mission back on Gishnovia. We had to leave for our own safety." Andrew's Hand stopped moving towards his holster. "Yeah I guess so Wolf did sound stressed when he asked if you guys made contact with anyone." Andrew called out to the others and they all gathered away from us. After 30 minutes they walked back saying, "We're thinking about joining you. Is that okay with you?" I just nodded and everyone got into the drop ship. Now we had a grunt, 6 humans, and 8 Spartans. The thing that bothered me was they were all in my squad.
