The Days To Come
A ODST's Tale
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWhen Princesses Luna and Celestia got there, they saw just how large this thing was. It was almost the same size as the castle they lived in. They made their way to Twilights house through the crowded streets. Ponies eventually parted and bowed in unison. Celestia quickly told them to rise. Many of the bystanders were looking at Luna with uneasiness and insecurity. Luna would normaly be saddened at this hadn't there been an object of unknown origin and/or purpose. She remembered when she had came back. Almost two weeks ago. The ponies were still terrified of her and did not look at her the same as Celestia. Twilight quickly spotted them and ran toward them, along with the rest of the mane six. Twilight was the first to speak but Luna didn't listen.
The ODST's side
Sam woke from cryo-sleep with a jerk and felt the need to gag."Someone really has to fix that." he said to himself as he tried to get up. He looked around. He was currently in the front half of the Iron Pheonix. Just down the hall there was the armory, and to the left of that there was the drop pods."Huh, wonder why no one bothered to......" the memory hit him hard. He remembered the screaming as they were under attack by a supercarrier. The ships captain yelled at them to go into cryo-sleep and then enter slip-space. (Jenny) he thought. He tried to get the ships AI active, but to no extent was it turning on. (Damn it why now). Just as that thought crossed him, alarms started going off.
"Slip-space rupture detected." the AI said.
That sentence made chills run down his spine. He remembered hearing the story of Master Chief. He didn't want to go there, so he calmly went to the armory." Well at least this half of the ship is ok. Don't know what I'd do without it". He grabbed an assault rifle and a DMR. Along with two grenades and an active sprint armor ability. He then quickly ran to an ODST drop pod and secured himself in it. "Well, here we go" he said as he pulled the release handle.
