After waiting for 12 hours, they expected, there might not even been help to get this Covenant cruiser to Sol II, the best stronghold nearby of the humans, but still in another solar system.

Via the jumpgate and jumpnode technology, ships and cruisers can travel instantly many lightyears. Still, this is a designated jumpnode or jumpgate. For fighter ships, there is a portable jumpnode instant taveller installed so it can leave and arrive whenever ready. But, out in space, with all this fighting, they might get under attack, and that could be inevitable, as the hull wasnt that good repaired yet. Daily, engineers worked hard to repair it and shield techs were trying to create instant shielding system on the ship to protect it better in times of war. The beam cannon's battery's were at 25%, so they could not hold enemy's off for long. After 3 days, finally, arived the cruiser protection. They were damaged, and fire came out of one of the 3 cruisers. Communications were damaged, so they could not communicat good.

"----need to-------lets go------- covenants---------attacked us------beam cannons--------offline------MOVE!!"
the damaged protection cruiser Hastersput II said via the teribly damaged communication channel.

The cruiser ws launched, and the other 3 formed around it. many figters jumped in via the jump node, some damaged, some without damage, and the naval yard sended a squadron with them of 50 fighters and 20 Defensive Bombers to protect them, and they activated full power on the engines, when the covenants appeared out of the jumpnodes and 2 cruisers out of the jumpgate, some damaged but most of them at full power. It was assured, the covenants were this close allready, statwe alert red must be sounded by the 2nd GH headquarters at Sol II. The GHC Hastersput II, the GHD Arcadia, and the GHC Aedlus II were now covering the humans in the covenant cruiser, and they had their engines at full power and were moving to the jumpgate, as their weapons were firing backwards to the attackers. A Covenant squadron of 40 bombers turned attention on the naval yard and released their bombs to their target. "EVAC!! EVAC!!" their screamed through the intercom, as marines jumpd into the evac pods and were launched out of there, towards the human cruisers. It is known that a evac pod goes faster than a cruiser at full speed, so the evac pods came closer and closer. The cruiser personnel opened the evac station to let them in. Allmost everyne who had time to escape in a evac pod escaped their death but some were caught in the blast. Many people died on the naval yard that day.

At the same moment when all pods were in the cruisers, thy were entering subspace jumpgate, as the fighters took the subspace node to get away, to rendesvous a halfminute later.

MCconto watched how they entered subspace, surrounded by a Destroyer and 2 cruisers. Flashy white colors turning blue surrounded the ships in the subspace jumpgate. As they travelled 35 lightyears and entered the Sol II system (name will change...). They saw Sol II coming closer and closer to the big, earth-like planet.

They were now out of the jumpgate, and were close to Sol II. Apparently, there is fighting even here. Covenant fighters surrounding a cruiser who desperately tryed to kill the ships using the beam cannons and turrets.

"Hastersput, investigate! The rest, follow us!" MCconto said through the intercom.
"Roger that Leader." The bridge captain said back to MCconto through the intercom, as Hastersput II turned to the helpless cruiser to aid it, to start firing the blue lasers, anti fast ships laser, and hit and destroyed 3 fighters. They turned attention at Hastersput II and attacked it, but the cruiser was ready, and the other cruiser could attack easily too now, an both cruisers surrounded the ships as their beam cannons and lasers destroyed the fighters, when now the other 3 cruisers oculd enter Sol II unnoticed and safely.

AT SOL II: SAFE FOR 5 DAYS

The Hastersput and the other Cruiser, apparently the Pstotle Mark V, (one of the 6 Pstotles, only this one is a cruiser as the other Pstotles allways were Destroyers or Battleships), were rid of the fighters and they were changing course to Sol II.

The GHD Arcadia and the GHC Aedlus II were entering Sol II with the covenant ship. They hailed Ground Control. "This is GHD Arcadia and we salvaged a Covenant cruiser, over, and we need to land, over!" Bridge Captain Dene Lock said through the intercom to the Ground Control HQ, as they entered the head city of Sol II."Ground Control, mop up your men, the covenants are back! We have 5 days of preparing left. And DO WHAT I SAY!" MCconto said little hurryed, and the people of Ground Control was flinching but did immediately hat they said. They called up the press, athorities and the government, to give the emssage about the few days they had. The marines aboard the cruisers and the Destroyers were running out in a line, as they pointed out their AR's and they reported at groups. Preparations started immediately, and mrines were running to everywhere, the flying cars were colliding with eachother in hurry, there was a small chaos what was under control.
MCconto sighed. How can we organize these people?" When he was thinking, Phrophet Tumael joined him. "Tumael? What do you do here? You are a phrophet of the covenants!" MCconto said. "I will explain...later..." Tumael said through hiscap over his face to make sue they wont recognize him as a Phrophet. Apparently, MCconto could look just through. "Yes... we need to organize these people if we want anything to do against the covenants." Tumael started."What? But... you are a---" he said but he was interrupted by Tumael who said: "You must understand... many phrophecy's were made by all kinds of people and races, pointing out situations what would happen. Some waited for many decennia, others, for ages, to happen. In all these phrophecy flood, one phrophecy was lost. This phrophecy was lost for 8000 years , and was created by the Ancient Vasuda Race. We found it a while back when exploring ancient treasures at Vasuda Prime, and we found... THIS..." Tumael showed a dusty old book with a unknown language on it, with a creaky, Rusty old lock on it. "...The Lost Phrophecy..." Tumael said slowly to MCconto."Open it." Tumael said.
