Here is Part 4, hope you enjoy the revelation. [b]Part four: The Unkillable man....[/b] [b][i]2 months earlier, Installation 04...[/i][/b] Sergeant Avery Johnson awoke to an unpleasant surprise. A Flood infection form was attempting to burrow it's way into his torso and hijack his nervous system. Evidently, it was having trouble. With an explosion of pain, Avery drew out a Magnum .44 from his belt, and fired a bullet, the sound of the shot echoing in his sore ears. The Infection form exploded, splattering him with the dead biomass. Avery stood up. He was slightly confused as to why he was still alive. That crazy Monitor had hit him square in the chest, surely it would have killed him. Yet here he was, live and kicking. For the first time since he had partook in it, Avery was glad he had volunteered for the Spartan I program, all those years ago. It made no difference in the end though, he supposed, he would die when Halo detonated anyway. He could see no sign of the Chief and the Arbiter, hopefully they were already on board the Dawn, powering up her engines. Suddenly, he heard a shimmering noise behind him. He turned around, and came face to face with the last thing he wanted to see. Another Monitor, but different than Spark. Golden, more regal. "Great, another Light bulb." He growled, popping a cigar from his belt into his mouth. "You here to fire a laser at me too?" The Monitor appraised him for a second, then dryly replied. "Hardly. I am 032 Mendicant Bias, Grand Monitor of Installation 00." After several moments of indecision on whether to believe it or not, Avery decided it didn't really matter anyway. "Yeah? Well I guess that's some good news. I suppose it'll be nice to have some company in my last moments before this thing goes boom." A series of sounds came from the Monitor, Johnson could have been wrong, but it almost sounded like it was laughing. In an artificial, clunky way. "Why so pessimistic Sergeant?" Mendicant asked, curious. Johnson walked to the edge of the control room, looking down into the chasm below. The darkness he saw seemed to sum up his life, empty. "It's called realism Light bulb, you robots seem to have trouble understanding it." It laughed again. "Oh, don't worry Reclaimer, I understand the situation perfectly. What I don't understand, however, is why you seem to think there is no way out of it." "Look around Light bulb. This whole place is about to blow, and you're standing, I mean floating there laughing." Johnson told the Monitor, growing tired of it. "You are right there. Installation 04, and indeed, my own Installation 00, or what you call the Ark, is about to be destroyed. But that doesn't mean we have to be." A pause, then. "What do you mean?" Instead of giving him a direct answer, Mendicant Bias chose to instead be ambiguous. "Do you know why my former masters built the Halo array Sergeant?" "Who do you think I am, an ONI Spook? Something to do with stopping the Flood." Avery said simply. "You are correct, in a way. Originally, however, Halo was conducted not to destroy, but to preserve the Flood. Think, Sergeant, a life form which, from a single spore, smaller than a grain of sand, can destroy an entire empire. What a weapon that could be against my master's enemies, if controlled properly." "Let me guess, the plan backfired?" Johnson guessed, and from the sounds of approval the Monitor made, it seemed he had guessed correctly. "That is exactly what happened Reclaimer. The Flood had an aspect to them my masters hadn't predicted." "And what was that?" "The Gravemind." Mendicant said, in a strange tone of voice. "But look, even as we speak, Halo's inevitable destruction draws ever closer. We shall resume this conversation another time, for now, we must leave." "And how exactly do you plan on doing that? And shouldn't I be falling into a deep, dark chasm right about now? Last thing I saw before I blacked out was this place falling to bits." Avery asked, sceptical. "I still have some power Reclaimer, despite how fractured I am. Every structure my masters built had a transportation grid built into them, to cut down journey time, and for use in the event of an emergency. Usually, it can only be used to get around the same structure. However, in my case the rules are slightly different." It paused, then said, "Are you ready?" Johnson didn't like the idea of leaving without knowing what had happened to the Chief, but he knew he had no choice. "As ready as I'm ever gonna be." A blue nexus surrounded both of them, and in an instant, they were gone. [Edited on 03.11.2009 4:47 PM PDT]
