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.
