OSTD Commander Burton, Lloyd was in a daze after launching out of the Inamber Clad in his HEV pod and having an unsuccessful landing on "Delta Halo". Armed with only a sniper rifle, pistol, and three fragmentation grenades, and his new prototype armor which resembled that of the Spartans armor but without going through all of the augmentations. He set off on a perilous journey to find the other humans whom had landed on the ring or hopefully find the Master Chief. The commander had spent two days wandering around trying to linkup with his team. Unbenounced to the commander an entire covenant armada was now enroute to "Delta Halo" and things were going go from bad to oh damn. Fifteen minutes passed and no sign of any enemies or an allies, but this hell jumper knew better, about 30 feet up the hill stood six jackals, and one massive looking Brute. The commander readied his sniper rifle, (he was on of the best snipers next to the Spartan known as Linda whom was presumed dead on Reach) and just as he was about to put a piece of lead right through the creatures left eye a flash of what look like highly focused plasma hit dead center the Brutes forehead. The commander took chance of this moment to empty four bullets into four jackals and reloaded. During this process the other sniper had taken out the last of the enemies. The commander stayed put for at least a half an hour until he had heard some rustle ling in the bushes. It was a golden Elite with a plasma sniper. The commander had a clear shot at the Elite but he thought on letting him do the walking up the hill in search of his enemies. Burton didn't know why the Elite opened fire on his own race and really didn't want to find out. Night fell quickly and the commander lost sight of the Elite. He took advantage of the night slipped under some very thick trees and fell fast asleep. The commander awoke to a phantom flying close overhead searching for something most likely the Elite. "Damn", the commander thought. The Phantom dropped a team of jackals and two of the new creatures. The commander looked for a good hill to hide on and snipe from. He found a hill with rocks for cover about 90 feet away and started into a dead sprint for them. As the commander arrived at the rocks he found the elite aiming his sniper at the group pf troops. The Elite spoke "Human either help me kill these murders or be on your way". Lloyd didn't know what to say in response except "Bring em on". He thought he could use an extra hand in dealing with the nuisance. The commander aimed his sniper rifle a the jackal and opened fire. The Elite had taken the Brute out. The rest of the enemies went down with ease. "Why did you ask me t help you kill your own race", Burton asked. The Elite replied "The Brutes have gone to far and shall pay for spilling the blood of my brothers. The Prophets have lied to us the Elites have disbanded from the covenant and are in full assault on the Brutes. We need all the help we can get human." Burton didn't know what to say or do, the shock of it all. He thought "Should I trust a creature that has killed thousands of humans? Not much choice. I could use the backup". "Yes I will help you if you help me find my team". The Elite agreed. Burton then asked " Hey pall" (he thought this was probably the first time in the universe that a human called a covenant pall),"what is your name"? The Elite replied "Noozamile". "Noozamileie huh wow that's original" replied Burton. "My name is Lloyd". "So Noozamile where are you taking me to"? The Elite replied "My LZ awaiting orders of what to do next. There may be a Phantom there which we can use to transport you to your team. We are now brothers in the same war Lloyd. We shall fight or die on the same team. An hour ticked off of Lloyds Mission clock and they had finally arrived at the LZ of Noozamilie. A pulse of fear rose through the commanders body as they approached because of the amount of guards posted at the base. He thought "If they wanted to kill me they would have already" Noozamilie took him to an old temple which was probably over a thousand years old and met with a single silver Elite named Zommile. Zommilie asked " So this is one of our new allies in the war" Lloyd replied "Whoa I didn't agree to anything yet, First you have to get me to my team so I can link up with commander Keyes and see if she will want to trust your race. We cant just trust your race, I mean after all you have killed millions of innocent people in the human/ covenant war". Zommilie replied "I will supply you with armored transportation to your team. The Elites would be most great full if your race would help ours, and we will help your race defend your home world." Lloyd thought "If the elites brought their ships to earth and fought on our side we may have a chance". "So where's the Phantom"?
