The Snsor readings showed a massive asteroid, hoesing several weapons platforms, a large amount of ships and many captured cruise liners and freighters.

My fleet hasn't the strengeth to take this force on.

I call out to anyony willing and able to help.

OOC: Ill assume you sent some sort of signal :P So...are we going to be getting down and dirty and try to capture the station, or do we cause it to go boom from the outside?

IC:
Somwhere nearby a patrol of DGNT ships floated.
"Kyptain, we are recieving signal from unkown source, you vant I should play it?"
"Stop with the accent, your not a Scot or a Russian, you will have to face the fact that you are one hundred and two percent Latino some day."
"I know...I know, but do you want me to play the message?"
"Yes, put it on."
The message played, they listened with some interest.
"Sounds like we may finnaly have something to do, set course for that thing, move it!"
"Thing, sir?"
"Yes, the thing that sent the message!"
"Ah, ok sir."
"Oh, and tell the other ships to follow."
"Right."
The patrol turned, sped up, and vanished in a flash of blue light.

Location: I.A.S.D. flagship Redemption

Captain Joeseph A. Hassan walks onto the bridge of the flagship after a transmission from Rafale has just been picked up...

"Ensign, what is so important that I had to be awakened at 3 AM?" yawned the Captain.

"Sir...I've just picked up a transmission from...wait a minute...Rafale. It says something about an asteroid loaded with weapons of mass desstruction. They also say that some of their own ships went to investigate, but only a few came back." replied Ensign GSpark.

"Christ...this isn't just a danger to them...this is a possible danger to other space colonies. I'll contact the President." said Hassan, shocked.

He quickly picked up a COM and directed it to the President's office. A tired voice replied. "Yes Captain...(yawn)...you called?"

"Mr. President, we have just recieved word that another nation has a serious problem on their hands. We'd like to help." said Hassan.

After a short talk with the President, it was made clear then that Itranto would help these people. Ensign GSpark picked up a ship COM. "We are leaving for Rafale's "Air-space." If you are already up, then help your fellow Spartans up. We will be entering slip-space in aproximately 10 minutes." he put the COM down. All he knew was that he was glad he wasn't a SPARTAN-II.

{James}

James lokked through the scope of his rifle. So far there had been nothing. He opened a COM to John and Kelly giving them the ok to go into the building. They responeded with their acknowledgement lights.

James took another look through the scope. He kept looking to make sur that his team was safe. He saw something odd then. The light seemd to be refracted in a certain window. He looked at the others and saw that they too had the same phenominom. "Oh shit." he said to himself.

He immeadiatly turned on his danger lights. He prayed that John and Kelly wouldn't fall into the trap. He looked around. He didn't see them. He thought for amoment that they may have been taken out, but he didn't hear any blasts. They were still alive, but for how long?


James quickly zoomed in on the targets in the windows. He held his breath...and fired. A stinger flew through the air and hit the target in the neck. Though he couldn't see it, he remebered how the stingers (tiny robotlike bullets) would latch onto a target and inject them with a toxin through there tiny stingers. None of the toxins though were poisinous so they would only knock out a guard for a couple hours.

He waited for his reward. A soft cry came from that direction and James saw the CAMO system fail. "SCORE!" he thought to himself. He quickly took out the other threats. James opened a COM to the team. He whistled Oly Oly Oxen Free. He then saw John and Kelly emerge from the shadows and continue on into the building. He had done his job.


{Kelly}

Kelly walked into the fort with her firearm raised. She sitched to nightvision and saw no threats. "All clear John." she whispered. The two walked into the dark room prepared for anything. She walked to a door and pressed her ear to it. Nothing. She mouthed to John, 3...2...1...NOW!. John kicked the door sending it across the room and into an enemy. He was slammed against the wall and he fell unconcious. Kelly jumped in and started firing. Within seconds, she had taken out ten people.

Kelly looked over to John. "I'm almost out." she said.

"Here, take mine." he said tossing her an extra clip. She quickly reloaded and they continued toward the target. They walked up a set of stairs and found a room with three bodies. James handywork. They knew it was safe. Kelly looked out the window and opened a COM to James.

"Hey James...it's us. So far so good. Any threats sighted above us?" she asked.

"Yeah...you have around two or three at the most. I think that the target is located there." replied James.

"Okay then...I'll be staying down here so don't shoot me." she said.

"Don't worry. I'm sure it won't be like last time." said James, laughing.

Kelly smiled. She walked over to John and told him that she would stay here in case he was in trouble. He nodded and walked up another set of stairs.

{John}

John soon reached the top of the stairs. He opened the door and walked in. So far there was no contact. He walked forward. It was then that someone grabbed him and put him in a headlock. Another man came out from behind a corner and raised his gun.

John twisted himself and the man around just as the man with the gun fired. Three stingers went into the man's back. He gasped and fell over. John turned and ran as the man kept firing. John hid behind a corner. The man continued to shoot. That was his greatest mistake.

John knew that the man would have to reload soon. He had to wait. Eventually the man did stop. John jumped out from his hiding place and tackled the man. The man was suprised by this and tried desperately to get John off. John punched the man in the face, causing him to be stunned. John used this time and grabed the gun. He loaded a clip into it and fired. The man hadn't even gotten up.

John sighed and continued to the objective. He soon found it. A computer with I.S.A.D. data on it. John took out his pistol and shot into it. "Objective complete. Let's get outta here." he said on a COM.

He walked into the room with Kelly and they both jumped out of the window. They walked up the hill to James. He was standing there smiling. "Great job guys! How do you think Hassan is going to feel about this?" he asked.

A man suddenly appeared out of nowhere. "Well, to tell you the truth...I'm quite pleased." said Captain Hassan. "Hey Spark! The missions complete!"



Up in the control room...Ensign GSpark pressed the button to end the simulator. He looked at the Mission Efficiency Screen. The Spartans had done even better this time. He turned on the COM. "Kudos to you guys! You really kicked ass!" he said smiling. "Just hope that you're this good on that asteroid!" he said.

ooc:

The spartans are of course based on the spartans from Halo. They were raised as soldiers from the age of 5 and they learned how to use weapons, computers, and how to fly ships. Like the real Spartans though, they have no fancy shields, so they are human. They just have augmentation and in this they are 15 or 16.

"It seems that the weapon is working fine."

"Excellent. Recall it to our space. People will learn if they try to make the incursion into Xendi Space again."

"Yes, Sentai."

Location: I.A.S.D. flagship Redemption
ABOVE RAFALE

Captain Hassan looked at the country of Rafale. It was differnet from Itranto, but it was still nice. Hassan picked up a COM device. "This is Captain Joeseph A. Hassan from the I.A.S.D. I've come here with our flagship Redemption. We here that you are having some problems with an asteroid that seems to have a base on it. We request permission to land." he said.

He walked to his chair and sat back. He hoped that a reply would come soon. If not, then maybe it was just a hoax.

BUMP!!!!

while waiting for the answer, Hassan recalled the one time he BUMPed his head.
