The Pelican dropship flew closer to the newly discovered planet. Linda checked her helmet to make sure that it was sealed tightly shut. She didn't know if the atmosphere on this newly discovered planet was breathable or not. She then turned to her trainees and made sure theirs were sealed as well. This was to be their first big mission and she wanted to make sure that everything perfectly.
"Alright, hang tight! Landing in five!" Linda said to calm her trainees.
The ship landed a little roughly and the passengers filed out. Linda looked around. Nothing came up on radar, but that didn't mean anything.
"Scout the area!" Linda ordered.
The trainees started searching the surrounding area in grid formation until a young one, named Tim, called out of the COM channel.
"I found a cave over here," he said.

"Keep searching! I'll handle this!" Linda ordered as she made her way towards Tim. "What did you find?"
"It's a cave ma'am! But it's big enough to fit a small ship inside! Anything could be hiding in there!" Tim replied.
Linda turned on her COM channel. "Red team and Green team I want you to keep searching!" Their acknowledgement lights winked. "Blue team, meet at postion 32,45" Again, acknowledgement lights winked.
Soon enough Blue Team arrived. "We're going to do a full scouting of this cave. You two," she pointed at two of the trainees, "find some good sniping postions. I will also be on lookout. The rest of you," she looked at the other four and Tim, "start scouting like you were doing out here. Grid formation. We got you covered." Everyone set off towards their assigned postions.

Above the team, a small robot spys on the team. "Unknown personal in area. Prepare all turrets and fire when ready." The robot starts to leave. "We will not let Shadow's ship be taken by these fiends."

Linda and her two snipers were in postion, completely hidden from anything that could possibly be in the cave. She held her Sniper Rifle up and started to scan the area as the scouts moved ahead. She saw nothing out of the ordinary so far, but continued to watch. Suddenly she heard a barrage of gun fire and the clang of bullets ricocheting of metal.
"Scouting Squad! Report! What's the situation?" She asked over the COM channel. For a while there was only static, then finally someone answered.
"Well, I think we found the ship," Tim answered in a sarcastic tone.
"What's your status?" Linda asked.
"Well, out of the five of us down here, there's only three of us not wounded," Tim said, then the COM cut off.
Linda looked through her scope and finally saw the ship. It was camoflauged in the surrounding rock very well. She radioed her snipers.
"Look for the distorted air and aim for the turrets," she ordered.
Suddenly, three sniper shots were heard and three turrets went down, but there were still many more. There was no way that this small team of eight could take them all out.
"Retreat! Scout Squad, take your wounded and bring them back to the Pelican for treatment! We're gonna need help if we're gonna come back!"
She made sure that everyone made it out safely before she too fled the cave.

Linda and her team were nearly out of the cave when she heard a noise. She turned to look behind her to see the turrets had stopped and the ship was opening up.
"Halt! Everyone get down and find cover! No one move until we know what we're up against. I'll move first and you follow after I give the signal." Linda gave the orders.
She cautiously approached the ship, which was no longer camoflauged. She brought her Battle Rifle up and made sure it was ready to fire. She gave the hand signal behind her to make sure her snipers got into good postions as she walked into the now open ship.

Inside the ship, more of the robot can be seen, fixing the ship. One of them comes to Linda. Robot: Please follow me, you must free our master from his capsule. Robot goes to the capsule room.

Linda winked her acknowledgement light for the three unwounded scouts. They would wait outside the ship, ready to help if something went wrong. Linda would need the help. Hand-to-Hand wasn't her element.
She followed the robot into the room. Inside there were many open capsules that reminded her of cryo-tubes. But one of them was closed. She approached the capsule, but the windows were tinted so she couldn't see inside. She pulled the lever that begun the de-freezing process. After a few minutes, the capsule opened.

From the capsule, a spartian rises. The robot goes by the spartian side. Robot: Shadow, welcome back sir. Shadow: It is good to be back. Shadow looks at Linda. Shadow: How are you?

Linda kept her finger on the trigger of her Battle Rifle. She still knew nothing of the situation. She tensed herself so that she could move at a moments notice.
"I'm fine," she answered in a cold, monitonuos voice. She made sure she kept her distance from this new man. After what happened outside, she wasn't sure if she liked him one bit. If it weren't for the current situation, this man would be dead.

Shadow: You don't have to be so jump. Shadow looks out the window. Shadow: I looks like one of your trainees was killed. Energy Sword, by the looks at it.

Linda's eyes looked to the window and confimed what Shadow had said. She ran outside and was thankful to see that her other guards were unharmed.
"What the hell happened?" Linda asked.
"Another spartan came out of nowhere with a sword. We had no time to react. He just killed him then just as quickly disappeared," one of them answered. Linda leaned over the body.
"Take the body and get everyone out of here. Get everyone back to the Pelican and wait for orders. You'll be safer as a group. There's something more to this mission then just a typical 'Scouting Mission'." Linda ordered. She then turned back to Shadow. "Look I don't know who you are or why you're here, but right now we have a situation on our hands. If you're going to help, fine, but if not, just stay out of the way." With that, she left to help Blue Team with the wounded.

Shadow watches as Linda and her tranees leave. Shadow: I hope they have a safe trip. Alright lets fly this ship. Shadow goes inside and goes to the bridge. Shadow: Here we go. The roof of the cave opens up to show a hanger. The rises and start to fly away. Shadow: Good luck spartian.

*Back at the Friggate*
The Pelican had landed in the hangar and the wounded had been taken to First Aid. The dead soldier was taken into the Medical Research center for study, and all the other trainees were resting. The ship was on a non-stop course to Sigma Octanus IV for refueling and repairs. They had been in space for a while so it wouldn't hurt to be back among civilization again. Linda should have been glad to get off that god-forsaken planet, but something still bothered her. One of her men had died on that planet. There was a potential threat that was still on that planet and she had to let it live. 'At least,' she thought to herself, 'my comrades are there waiting.' She fell asleep as the ship jumped into slip-space.
*****
Corporal Miller used to be a member of the UNSC, but was relieved from the line of duty being caught and convicted of treason. He watched from the secret facility on Thereare's surface as the Frigate jumped into Slip-Space. "So, they got away," he said to himself. He turned back to his view screens and looked for the lone Spartan that was there a minute ago. "And so did he." He activated the tracer he had planted on the lone Spartan and instantly got the coordinates of the ship's postion. He hit another button and sent those coordinates to his old "friends." "That should take care of them."
OOC: okay from here, if ya wanna contribute to Linda and Shadow's current RP, go to Sigma Octanus IV. If ya wanna contribute to Corporal Miller's story, stay here.
