Looking into the visor of the Spartan, I ask, "You're half human, right? How the hell do you breathe with that green thing they screwed to your head. You're not here to look slick, you're here to breathe and help me take out the trash."

ÝÝÝÝÝThen I looked at an uneasy marine sitting opposite from me. "Damm, you look fried there son. Why don't they just stick a flak jacket and and a helmut to you marines. You got steel plates on your chest. The aliens don't got teflon bullets. Heck, they don't even have bullets!"

ÝÝÝÝÝThe Terrans were always dumb in my eyes. They just had big pieces of no good scrap metal floating in space and a bunch of high-school kids with big guns and armor. They risk their lives too much.


ÝÝÝÝÝSaturn is a whole new world compared to Earth. We originally seperated due to overpopulation and differing philosophies. Now, we are two seperate worlds but still interact with eachother. Saturn has a slightly different but strong government, judicial system, economy and moral/human regard. We don't take much liking to liberals, communists, fascists, and other social degenerates; they pollute Earth instead.

ÝÝÝÝÝWe wage war differently, but we have never fought eachother. We are each somewhat fond of the other. Our economies and safety depend on eachother. Saturn specializes in the ever advancing world of agriculture and transgenic crops in addition to artificial intellegence and man-made worlds. We are renowned for our development of explosive projectiles and energy weapons that even rivals Covenat technology. The terrans, however, provide the backbone of all military protection in our galaxy with their flagships and armies. We constantly trade ideas and advancements; Saturn has put much pressure on Earth-based factories to produce mechanized units rather than train more marines.

ÝÝÝÝÝOur way of war includes putting robots where humans normally die, but that doesn't mean disecting a kid and putting robotic arms on him. Humans with realistically functioning weapons, munitions, and vehicles are employed to back up the front line. Saturians still hold a higher moral and ethical status when it comes to advancement. We do exploit space by placing satellites with "big lasers" in several galaxies though.

ÝÝÝÝÝCongress recently called all reservists on Saturn's moons and platforms to duty. "We have declared that despite being quite different from the terrans, saturians and terrans and both HUMAN. Humanity is gettin it's head slapped in another galaxy. It's time to assist our brethren."

ÝÝÝÝÝRight now, there are three satelites floating somewhere in the center of this giant hula-hoop scrapin' aliens all over. Damm, where would these people be without Saturn. This is the beginning of our involvement here and humanity's comeback.
