Chapter 54 - 054 - Noble Team...MIA

[FYI, Mostly scenes today that are pretty much just filler in the chapter, so it's not really a longer chapter]

[Also, I already completed managed to complete the thing that was supposed to take a month so my chapter uploads will go back to 4-6+ a week]

"Spartans do not die, they merely go missing in action..." - ONI Directive 930

...

After Jun left there were only three members of the squad left to complete the delivery and deliver the AI Cortana to the Pillar of Autumn.

But as they flew towards the Pillar of Autumn on a Pelican, Carter and the Pelican was suddenly attacked by a few Covenant Banshees with multiple plasma rounds hitting Carter...

With Carter in bad condition and the pelican in bad shape, Carter told Noble Six and Emile to jump out and deliver the package themselves while Carter distracts the Banshees.

"Not sure how long she's gonna stay together. Skies are jammed up anyways. Gotta get you off her, Lieutenant," Carter tells Six with some difficulty.

"Sir, you-" Six tried to tell Carter, but Carter interrupted him and said, "Don't wanna hear it. Get the Package to the Autumn."

"Done," Noble Six replied.

"Not yet, it's not... Emile, go with him. It's a ground game now." Carter ordered Emile.

"It's been an honor, sir," Emile told Carter.

"Likewise... I'll do what I can to draw their fire," Carter informed the two.

Six turned and walked to the troop bay.

"Six. That AI chose you... She made the right choice," Carter told Six.

The Pelican turns and makes the pursuing aircraft out of sight. Six and Emile position at the Pelican's tail, ready to jump off. Holding the AI data storage unit, Six crouches down as Emile grips the Pelican. Carter counts down with his fingers.

"On my mark!" Carter told the two.

Carter counts down to zero and pumps his fist, giving his signal.

"Mark!" Carter shouted.

Six and Emile jump down. They slide down a canyon, shields depleting slowly. They come to a stop. Six looks up as he and Emile's shields recharge. Carter's Pelican flies over them, more Banshees in hot pursuit. Six turns back, picking up the AI data storage unit he looks it over, checking for damage before hooking it on his back. They look up to the road up ahead.

As they continued the journey, I stayed with Carter and watched as he took a small picture of Kat from his pocket and placed it on the Pelican's dashboard.

He smiled and said, "I will meet you soon."

As I sat next to him making sure that no more plasma rounds would hit his body or any critical part of the Pelican we heard radio chatter from Emile.

"Mother... We can get past it, sir!" Emile shouted on the radio as we see a Scarab crawl over the ravine the two Spartans were currently in.

"No, you can't. Not without help," Carter tells them with a sigh over the radio.

"Commander, you don't have the firepower!" Emile shouted over the radio.

After noticing the two Spartans, the Scarab charges its main cannon, aiming at the two SPARTAN-IIIs. Carter's Pelican flies over and shoots at it. The Scarab is distracted and stops charging its cannon.

"I've got the mass," Carter bravely tells the two.

"Solid copy... Hit 'em hard, boss," Emile tells Carter over the radio.

"You're on your own, Noble... Carter out," Carter replied one last time before ramming the Pelican at full speed into the hull of the Scarab.

Carter sacrificed himself by ramming the Pelican into the Scarab's side as it charges its main cannon again. The Scarab's side bursts into flames, explosions rocking within it. The Scarab lets out a dying scream and struggles to stay on the cliff. More explosions rock it and it falls down the cliff. A deafening explosion is heard indicating its destruction.

[The following is mostly just the script of the mission and I am too lazy to edit it]

Emile and Six enter another cave. The bodies of dead troopers litter the cave.

Emile-A239: "Buggers. Go quiet."

Drones attack the duo, the SPARTANs take the Covenant troops down. After taking down the buggers and Skirmishers, Emile and Six find the cave's exit. The Sinoviet facility is seen, with the grounded and scrapped UNSC Commonwealth now an enormous battlefield between UNSC and Covenant troops.

Female Trooper: "SPARTANs! Over here!"

Captain Keyes (COM): "This is Captain Keyes of the Pillar of Autumn. We are tracking you, Noble, and have begun our launch sequence. Proceed to drydock, platform D. I'll be on it myself to receive the package."

Emile-A239: "We'll be there, sir."

Captain Keyes (COM): "You better be, soldier, because my countdown has no abort."

Emile-A239: "Understood. We've got to get to the dry dock. Priority One."

Marine: "Spartans! Drydock's through that structure. Punch through. We'll back you up."

Six and Emile eliminate the hostiles in the smelting area and take care of the reinforcements. After clearing that area, they move on to the drydocks. Two Hunters and several Skirmishers patrol the entrance.

Six and Emile quickly take out the hostiles and head into the drydocks, where several Marines are attempting to fight some Covenant up at the upper level. The two ȧssist the Marines and clear the top floor, entering a small corridor. An explosion triggers through the building, flickering the lights.

Captain Keyes (COM): "Keyes to Noble team. We're running out of time here, Spartans!"

Emile-A239: "Solid copy, sir! We're en route."

Two Marines are engaging a Jackal with a plasma rifle and two Grunts.

Six and Emile help the Marines eliminate the enemy. They head into a hallway. At the end, two more Marines are hesitating at the exit to platform D.

Emile-A239: "What's the situation?"

Marine: "We rigged a mass driver up top. We lose that, the Autumn will have no covering fire. She'll never make orbit."

Emile-A239: "Noble to Keyes: we're at the pad."

Captain Keyes (COM): "Copy, Noble. My Pelican's ready. Clear an LZ and I'll meet you there."

Emile-A239: "Will do, sir. All right, Six... this is it. I'll man the big gun. You just get to the platform and deliver that Package."

Emile takes control of the Mass Driver as the waves of Covenant approach

Emile-A239 (COM): I'm in position, I'll take out as many dropships as I can.

Noble Six fights off numerous waves of Covenant Infantry while reinforcements from the Autumn fly in, eventually clearing the platform for Keyes.

Emile-A239 (COM): Noble to Keyes, the pad is clear.

Captain Keyes (COM): On the way.

Emile-A239 (COM): Six, time for you to leave. Get the package to the pad, and get your ȧss off this planet. I got your back.

Captain Keyes' Pelican makes its descent towards the landing pad

Captain Keyes (COM): "This is Keyes, on hot approach to Platform Delta."

Keyes walks to the end of the troop bay with a few Marines behind him to meet Noble Six.

Captain Keyes: "Good to see you, Spartan. Halsey ȧssured me I could count on you."

Captain Keyes (Legendary): "Good to see you, Spartan. Catherine ȧssured me I could count on you"

Noble Six hands the package to Keyes.

Noble Six: "Not just me, sir."

Keyes places a comforting hand on the Spartan's arm.

Captain Keyes: "They'll be remembered."

Keyes turns back towards the Pelican but stops short as a massive shadow appears in the sky. A CCS-class Battlecruiser pushes through the clouds, advancing towards the Pillar of Autumn.

Captain Keyes: "Cruiser, adjusting heading for the Autumn! Noble Four, I need fire on that cruiser or we're not getting out of here! Do you copy?"

Emile-A239 (COM): "You'll have your window, sir."

Captain Keyes: "Bridge, this is the Captain. We have the Package. Returning to the Autumn, over."

Bridge Personnel (COM): "Copy that."

Captain Keyes and the marines enter the Pelican, Noble Six takes out his/her Designated Marksman Rifle. A Phantom appears close by and fires plasma bolts from its forward turret at the two Pelicans. The Pelican escorting Keyes' Pelican is shot down and crashes on the platform Noble Six is standing on.

Six dives away from the burning wreck, and Keyes' Pelican flees. Six readies his/her weapon and turns as the Phantom wheels overhead towards the mass driver, but is forced to duck as the starboard door gunner fires another barrage of plasma at the SPARTAN. The Phantom drops off a pair of Zealots by the Mass Driver. One Zealot is visible to Noble Six, the second is concealed by the Mass Driver. Emile yells in surprise as the first Zealot raises its Energy Sword, but knocks it off its feet by a shotgun blast, it falls on its back to the deck. Emile stands over the Zealot, raises his shotgun, and fires again point-blank into the fallen Zealot's ċhėst, killing it.

Emile-A239: "Who's next?!"

The second Zealot jumps and impales Emile from behind with an Energy Sword, then pulls the Spartan off the blade, holding Emile by the throat.

Emile-A239: "I'm ready! How 'bout you?!"

Still alive, Emile pulls out his kukri from his shoulder pauldron sheath and stabs the Zealot in the throat. The Zealot falls, Emile with it, his dying breaths can be heard. Keyes' Pelican returns to Platform Delta.

Just before he could die I saved his life and teleported him away, replacing his body with a fake.

Now, all that's left is Noble Six, who left the pelican to get back on the turret and shoot down the covenant aircraft attacking the ship.

Soon the Pillar of Autumn took off leaving the lone Spartan behind.

With the Pillar of Autumn gone I teleported Six and myself to Jorge.
