“Who we may be up against exactly is the reason I am wondering.” Catina said. “Cabis Vul, Rhak Leree, Turrath Leree for example. Whichever Sangheili we may be up against, means adjusting our strategy for dealing with him or them.”

“I’d rather not go loud for this mission, so try and be stealthty.”
The moment stealth was mentioned Kiana shifted uneasily while Deacon shot back at attention

The prowler took off with everyone onboard. “Yes sir, we took off.” Blair said as she was speaking to someone over the comms. “Yes all of them…even her.” She said as suddenly a voice came on through everyone’s comms.
“Spartans, now that you are all here I will tell you what is happening, Descendent has been discovered to house unactivated forerunner equipment, originally when the covenant was the on the planet, we excepted a fight over it. Instead…they went silent so did our fireteam. And now suddenly the Covenant is back sending out messages left and right. We don’t know what’s going on down there, so that is why we are sending you. Your objective is to find our missing Spartans, figure out what the covenant is doing back on the planet, and if possible bring back any forerunner tech possible. As far as anyone but us know, this operation does not exist and none of you are on this ship. Make sure it stays that way.”
The voice said as it went silent, Blair only cleared her throat and spoke. “Everyone understand your objective then?”

Deacon and Kiana nodded.
“Yes ma’am” Catina said.
Then she thought in her mind “Especially as long as yours truly, “Princess ONI” doesn’t get carried off by a Dragon and thus need rescuing from it’s castle, Or if we do not find Ice King from Adventure Time, who will then insist on marrying me, then we should be fine.”

IC. “Refresh my memory. Had we met before today?” Catina asked Aries.
OOC. Aries is able to read Catina’s thoughts? Because she said that in her own mind, not out loud. And this is the scene I had in mind when I mentioned Ice King.

“how long will the trip through slipspace take Ma’am?” Deacon asked
“A month.” She said turning on the auto pilot and heading towards the cyropods and looking at three of the already occupied pods. “always paid to be prepared.” She said looking over the three Spartans files in the pods one last time before sighing, she hated being the cryopods, if she could have found a quicker way to the destination that wouldn’t have required the use of pods. She would have taken that in a heartbeat.

Deacon chuckled and stepped into one “is this your first time in the freezer Kiana?” He asked her
"Yes, it is… "
“Well it’s not so bad… Think of it like blinking…” He said as she stepped towards one
“No matter.” Catina said. “Shall I show you to your room?” Catina asked Aries, gesturing to one of the cryo pods.

Blair stepped into her pod as it closed, grumbling about how she hated the pods with a passion.
Deacon’s pod closed, quickly encasing him in ice and freezing him
