Halo:Way down

The calm

"Helljumper helljumper where have you been
Feet first into hell and back again
When I die please bury me deep
With my MA5 down by my feet
Don't cry for me don't shed no tear
Just pack my bag with PT gear"

Every day,the platoon heard the same Cadence,every March,every run,the same one,it was ingrained in our heads.so we were happy to not hear it when me and the rest of tango four (consisting of me,thirty year old sergeant major Michel"barker"lamosa,twenty six year old staff Sergeant Brandon "butch" Henry,our big,fair skinned,red headed heavy weapons guy,twenty one year old Private Katy "hunter" Anderson,our raven haired Asian sniper,and twenty nine year old gunnery sergeant Edward "rocky"Reese,our pale ,lanky blonde field medic with a keen sense of humour and a straight shoot with a shotgun)were assigned to the UNSC Headhunter,the happiness of the transfer was short lived because the Headhunter was set to patrol the Ursa system,a couple of mining colonies far from earth,it would be a year of boring patrols and training,I have no problem with training I just wanted some action. The next morning a pelican landed and picked us up. When we arrived out came the Frigate's captain,a twenty something kid that was probably straight out of the academy
"Captain on deck"!
"At ease soldiers. Welcome to the Headhunter,I am captain Jack Miller and it is an honour to have Some ODSTs joining us,you are Tango four if I'm not mistaken".
He takes out a data pad"top of the class,and you have all already served as marines,it our lucky day"
"Thank you sir".
"Please call me Jack,you are all older and more experienced then me,if you don't want to be above your C.O then we are equal".
"Thank you si...Jack".
"My pleasure,we will be jumping to slip space within the hour so I recommend you go down to the cryo tubes,it's a long time till we reach Ursa".
We head down and on our way bump into two men and a woman,they were like seven feet tall and super ripped,even the woman,who only looked twenty,was as tall as rocky.
"Were those Spartans".
"I heard that some threes survived Reach so I guess the Headhunter has a couple".
"You have to agree she was kinda hot".
"She could snap you like a twig"Jokes hunter
"Didn't say she couldn't".
"Let's get a move on soldiers".
"You know I hate missing the jump".
"You'd think being an ODST would quench your thirst for adrenaline,but no you need to be awake for a simple slip space jump".
We walk to the cryo tubes and find Bravo two getting in to their tubes.
They get out and we just socialize for a bit,their Commander,Jorge Henderson going straight to flirting with Katy
"Can you come here Jorge".
"Sure barker what's up".
"Back off man".
"What are you and her...".
"What no how would you like it if rocky started hitting on Emily,plus she is like eight years younger than you".
"Touché".
We all get in our tubes and are put on ice,we wake up four days later,surrounded by the other ODST teams,bravo two,Tango one,two,and five,Charlie three,alpha six,and of course the Spartans. Captain Miller walks in and greets us.
"If you would kindly follow me,I want to show you something".
He leads us to a big black room with nothing but some control consoles. He walk up to one and taps some stuff.
"Ladies And gentleman it's my honour to welcome you...to Ursa.
The room is suddenly lit up,we turn around to see a giant window where the walls were. The view was amazing,we had been at the ODST training facility so long we had not seen something like this in so long,the system was made up of a sun much like earth's but bigger,two rocky planets and six gas giants.
"I would life to introduce you to spartan team Echo,this is chief petty officer Ash 248,staff sergeant Brody 220,and lieutenant Keith 224, they will be serving with us on this campaign,now go get some real sleep,and that's an order.
