Civil war had broken out just like before the Covenant-human war. The Jiralhane had betrayed us! I ran and shook at bars, trying to unhinge them. "Ok, Ok calm down!" I fell silent, "Holy Forunners, you sound like a Sharquoi!" This cheeky remark embarrased me slightly so I kept slient. "Ok, I guess it's time I told you." I had a feeling that I wasn't going to like this. "I am you." That was unexpected. "I am the part of you that is not corrupted." He carried on, worring me more with every word. "Corrupted?" I asked quickly, "One quetion at a time," I thought to myself. "Yes one at a time would help." He knew! "You can read my mind?" I asked again still thinking "One at a time" in my head. "Well yes I am you, I can read your thoughts. Also what you said about corrupted. Well, I don't know how and I don't know when, but you have become meaner and more agressive. You will continue to become more so unless I can help you. You have a dark future." He finished. "Ok, so your my inner-voice, and you can help me? Wait, How do I know your telling the truth?" I qustioned considrably. "Do you remember those bursts of rage on Halo? And one just now." He answered, seemingly pleased with himself. "Oh my god, what's happeneing to me?!" I shouted. "Look," he answered back, "Just listen to me, and me might be able to avoid you becoming the new Chieftain of the Jiralhane." I could tell he was amused by his own joke.

"Suno, ho are you talking too?" Came an Unggoy's voice. "Korli? Er, no-one. Just myself." Screams of pain echoed through the cell bay. It was coming from outside. Grenades exploded and I heard humans' voices. "This one Chief, this is the cell bay where the next squad of Marines are." I heard. The sound of a door opening and more battle sounds came next. "The humans are here well, well." The "inner voice" said. "So, can that help me?" I hoped. "No, they're gone anyway." He spoke back. "Someone else helpful is coming though." Before I caould answer, the door opened and Fagina Graprot emerged.

Korli was astonished, "Fagina, over here!" He called out. "Shhh!" Fagina whispered back. "Some of those Brutes are just unconsious. He deactivated the bars and they flew back. Several more Minors and Majors emerged and a Major female Unggoy that seemed to like Korli. "Take command, they will accept you as you are a higher rank," said that voice "OK." I announced to everyone, "Since I am highest rank, I will take command," I hoped that they would. Unfortanely a senior and cautious Major was suspicious. "This young Sanheili is the same rank as you," he said, pointing to Fagina, "Why shouldn't he be in charge?" My inner-voice was about to tell me waht to say but I was already infront. "Very well, both of us shall be in charge." The crown seemed to agree amongst themselves and the voice fianally spoke. "Very good, your getting the hang of this." Me and Fagina led the group out of the bay and up the Grav-lift.

When we reached the top I meleed a Jiralhane with his back to me before we worked out how to meet up with another group of Sanheili. The nearest was a group of Honour gauards fighting in a hall nearby, enemy targets were closing on them and they needed help. My feelings were amiss. A mixture of rage and courage confused me. I was in another world. Until Fagina spoke: "Let us go now, and sacrifice our lives for those of higher ranks."

My feet pushed me up slowly and I joined the crowd of charging Sanheili as we ran. Sliding doors opened infront of us and surprised Jiralhanae that were stalking fallen Honour Gaurds were caught and trampled by the charging Sangheili. Honur Gauards gained their feet and stood up tall. They brushed their vision upon their lower ranking saviours.

"We thank you for your asistance but we must progress. If we can catch up with Truth we can end this." The lead Honour Gaurd said. I strode up to him pulling Fagina with me. "Exellency, we take responsibility for this group, we now offer our leadership to you as a higher-rank." I proposed to him. He paused for a while before he spoke back. "The Honur Gaurds work alone. We only protect the Prophets, therefore no-one commands us except the Hierach. You may maintain control of this group. We will work with you. We must find Truth!" The crowd agreed in unision. He roared satisfingly. He then turned to me still towering over us. "I like you, I will tell you that I am Drava 'Yanrotee," He told me as Fagina gasped and spoke to. "Yanrotee," he emphasised. "I am Fagina Graprot." He burst out. 'Yanrotee thought for a while. "Hmm, it seems we are related somehow. Do me proud."

We progressed to another corridor fille to exploding point with Kig-yars. They fired up to the ceiling. All I could see was a blur of yellowish-green and blue. I then realized they were Yanme'es and Ranger Sangheili fighting eachother. The Kig-yars were trying to shoot the Sangheili. 'Yanrotee bellowed a war cry and the Honour Gaurds charged in neat lines like no other Sanheili could. Then Fagina creid his and the Minors and Majors charged at the few Kig-yars that had not been sliced in half by the Honour Gaurds' blades. 'Yanrotee was so tall he could reach the Yanme'es overhead when he jumped. He began to kill them. The were disracted and as they turned the Rangers finished them off.

We carried on, we received frequent reinforcements including a pair of Lekgolo. A brutal encounter with Jiralhanae reduced ouur numbers badly but we did not stop. The voice did not speak much. When we finally caught up with Truth he was boarding his ship(otherwise refered to as The Ark). On a far conduit I caught sight of the Demon running towards a nude, purple and cybernetic human. He juped into the cargo entrance ans the ship left. We lost so many, in vain that we did not stop Truth. "Unlucky Suno," my voice whispered to me, "but don't worry, you'll get him someday." Before I knew it the Supreme Seciaal Operations Commander pulled in on a Phantom. "We must leave Truth," he said, "Tarturas is going to activate Halo!" We climbed aboard.

End of Day 6
