Chapter 1: arrival and first contact
David's pov
It has been 5 years after the war ended, i was at a viewing deck of the infinity overlooking my home planet... Earth.
???: mind if i join in spartan?
David: not at all captain lasky.
The captain stood beside me looking at the blue planet.
Lasky: beautiful isn't she? Dr. Halsey said you were from here, right?
David: yes sir, I am.
Lasky: please, drop the formality.
There was a bit of silence, but it was broken by a speaker.
Speaker: Spartan-118 is called to the infinity's bridge for mission briefing.
David: and that's my cue, i have to go sir.
Lasky: yes spartan.
I went to the bridge where i met chief.
David: so chief what's the mission for me today?
Chief: this.
A hologram showed a covenant ship inactive.
David: its a covy ship, what is it doing here?
Cortana: here is where i come in.
Then cortana appeared.
Cortana: gen 3 armor suits you does it?
David: a bit, your new chip?
Cortana still getting new to it, now here the briefing.
David: i'm listening.
Cortana: the ship is inactive, and it is stationery, we tried to contact it and it isn't responding, we suspect something weird on board.
David: good i'll go tell the team to get ready.
Chief: no, you're going alone.
David: ok... wait what?
Chief: you're boarding it alone, its not that big of a ship so there would be less covenant forces to worry about.
David: fine.
Cortana: good you'll be boarding via pelican.
David: got it.
I then went to the hangar, and went and got on one of the pelicans and pilot it.
Deck crew: sir are you sure? this is an older model.
David: it's ok, i'll be fine.
I then closed the back hatch and took off from the hangar.
Chief: cortana said there should be an open hangar somewhere, and once you're on turn on your camera feed so we could see what is on the ship, infinity out.
David: copy that.
I then found the open hangar and i flew the pelican in and landed it inside the hangar.
David: it is pitch black here, activating camera night vision, and turning on flashlight.
I turned on my flashlight and there was nothing.
David: where is the crew of this ship?
Cortana: David there is a strange energy from the ship's mid section, check it out.
David: roger.
I continued to the ship's mid section the ship was completely empty with nothing, there was an object resembling a forerunner structure.
David: you all seeing this?
Chief: yes we are.
The structure then glowed and activated its self.
David: woah, what's happening.
Chief: David *radio crackle* we're *static* losing connection with you, what *static* going on there?
Then my radio dies completely.
David: Infinity do you read?
No response.
David: well this is great.
The structure started to make weird noises, i raised my gun to counter anything coming from that, then suddenly a rift opened from the structure.
David: what in the-
Then suddenly a bright flash blinded me, when i open my eye's moments later, i wasn't on the ship anymore.
David: spartan 118 to infinity come in!
Radio: *static*
David: this is spartan 118 to infinity do you read!
Radio: *static*
David: damn it, what do i do now.
I heard in the distance were gunshots and plasma bolt firing
David: well there's something.
I followed where the shot's were coming from, and what i saw was interesting, I saw girls having gear resembling 1940's ships.
David: that means i either traveled through time or went to a different universe.
They were fighting against a hunter, the hunter seems to be blocking the attacks, it then tried to attack one of the girls, that fell on her back.
David: not on my watch!
I fired my battle rifle at it which it noticed me instantly and fired its fuel rod cannon arm which i manage to dodge at the nick of time, i got on its back and pulled out my magnum.
David: eat this!
I unloaded the entire mag on its back and it was still standing trying to swing me off.
David: how would you like this, for a living!
I planted a grenade into it and got off.
David: good bye.
It then exploded into a mess, i looked towards the girls which has the impression of shock, and awe, but still had their weapons aimed at me.
David: its ok, i'm human.
???: how can we tell?
I took off my helmet, to reveal i'm a human
David: see, i'm willing to tell everything to your higher ups.
???: then come with us, and do not do anything stupid.
David: i will.
Then a blonde haired girl came up.
???: thanks for saving me, what's your name.
David: david ma'am, you are?
Bismarck: KMS Bismarck.
