Load Full StoryNext Chapter

The date is April 17, 2553, almost an entire year since the end of the Covenant-Human war, since refered to as the 'great war'. The BTS Promethean Equilibrium, capital ship of the Blades of Transcendence Fleet, was on root to the Sangheili homeworld, Sangheilios, via quantum slipstream drive, or for short, slip-space. The ship was a massive COS class super-carrier, measuring 95,013 feet from bow to stern, with several powerful armaments such as plasma turrets, plasma torpedoes, pulse laser turrets, and 7 energized matter projectors capable of cleansing life from entire worlds. It was the marvel of the Blades of Transcendence Fleet, the prized starship.

On the main command bridge were dozens of powerful Sangheili warriors tending to their stations, making sure that their leaders ship was in good care. Supreme Commander Tivos 'Xytranee was temporarily in command of the ship, as his leader was busy with pressing matters. Supreme Commander Tivos 'Xytranee wore Field Marshall armour. It was coloured a dark violet with some parts that were dark grey.

"Status report." He ordered calmly threw his English accent. The crew's response was quick and snappy, much to the Supreme Commander's delight. The man at the navigation station responded quickly.

"Navigation is operating within normal parameters, holding a steady course at slipspace velocity for Sangheilios. ETA: 10 minutes."

Right after of which the communications officer spoke. "Nothing to report here, commander. Communications with the rest of the fleet are still normal and sensors are still operating at peak efficiency."

Then the tactical officer. "All weapons systems are nominal."

"Slipspace portal steady, repulsor drive on standby for re-entry, commander." Reported the engineering station.

"Good." Supreme Commander Tivos Xytranee was pleased with how good he had taken care of his leader's ship yet another time. He imagined that his leader would commend him for his service.

Everybody was sent into silence as they heard slow, heavy footsteps coming from the door at the back of the bridge. The door made a humming sound, unlocked, and opened as two high ranking officers of the Imperial Guard stepped out and quickly repositioned themselves on both sides of the doorway to allow for somebody to pass. They both stood at complete attention, not even moving a muscle.

The one guard on the right was the Ascetic, the high command chief of the Imperial Guard, Ascetic Enolc 'Relikee. He wore white and cyan coloured ascetic armour, his helmet was sealed and had two razor sharp tritanium daggers sticking out of the sides. His eye plates glowing bright yellow. To his left was Honour Guard Ultra Eyha 'Ohsolee. He wore white and red Honour Guard armour with glowing yellow lights plastered all over his armour, the most prominent ones being the giant glowing yellow columns that curved out of the top of his helmet. They both carried glowing honour guard pikes.

Footsteps could still be heard approaching the doorway as a figure emerged from the darkness of the corridor. A tall and large Sangheili walked onto the bridge. Like the Supreme Commander, he wore Field Marshall armour. Accept instead of being violet and grey, his armour was white and gold and had a red-purple coloured jet pack mounted to his back.

Strangely, his head ignited into flames and his helmet was on fire.

"Just turned on my flame-head." He chimed.

Supreme Commander Tivos Xytranee immediately took notice to his brothers presence and stood up, fast.

"Imperial Admiral, on the bridge!" He yelled loudly.

Everybody immediately got up and stopped what they were doing. They stood up at attention, the Supreme Commander giving of a respectful salute to the Admiral.

Imperial Admiral Kerzon Fal 'Xytranai was the leader of the Blades of Transcendence Fleet, and the ship master of the BTS Promethean Equilibrium. He was a battle ready and capable leader and soldier of the field who was well conditioned with any weapon and any situation. He had a mysterious flame burning around his head to evoke fear in his enemies. He was the Kaidon of the State of 'Xytran on Sangheilios and earned the status of Aristocrat threw his martial prowess in hand-to-hand combat and with the Energy Sword.

"How many times do I gotta tell you guys? I'm not a fucking hard-ass, okay? Now enough of this regulation shit. Report." Everybody on the bridge relaxed and went back to their jobs, accept Commander Tivos.

The Supreme Commander gave him a full report, noticing that behind the Admiral was standing a Human.

"Um.... Admiral. There is a Human scum behind you." The Commander Tivos Xytranee said in disgust to his brother.

"Scum? Who you callin' scum, fu?" The human said. He was a 7 foot tall human with tan coloured armour. He wore GUNGNIR  head gear, Collar/Breacher chest gear, and had sniper bullets mounted to his arms. He had 2 UNSC magnums on his thigh and an 8 gauge, Semi-Automatic AA-14 shotgun magnetically attached to his back.

The Commander growled and grabbed for his energy sword. Right then the Admiral grabbed the human's shotgun, and aimed it at Supreme Commander Tivos.

"Bitch!" The human yelled and grabbed his shotgun from Admiral Kerzon.

Tivos face-palmed and sighed. "Little Sin, why are you on this ship?"

"How did you know it was me, braw?" The human said.

"Your the only idiot who carries around a semi-automatic shotgun that is 8 gauge." The Admiral interrupted before Tivos could say anything.

"So why did you want me here?" Little Sin said.

"We are about to pull off the most fucking hilarious thing in the history of both our kinds." The Admiral said in response.

"You know that one prick that told me off the other day at that club?"

"Yeah."

"Well I found out who he is. He's the elder in a state called the State of Katar."

"So?"

"I'm gonna burn my name into the ground of his state using one of the energy projectors on my ship." He chuckled and sat down in his command chair, his honour guards followed. "It's gonna be fucking rad."
