Part II
The Covenant drop ship was a, well it looked like a large purple bread box to put it. Try ten times the size though. The drop ship hovered off the ground about two feet. An Elite came up behind me put his large two toed foot on my back then shoved. I stumbled into the back of the ship and fell face down, cursing as my forehead slammed into the inside of my helmet.
As the rest of the Elite's hopped aboard, I tried to stand but felt pressure being exerted downward. I turned my head to the right and saw three Elite's all holding me down, warbling something in their own language. Next then with some direction from a fourth, they started pushing me to the back of the drop ship. "Hey, hey watch the armor you'll scratch it!" I said. Not like it matters. "Shut up human!" The blue Elite growled. I was propped upright, then chained with my arms still behind my back to an extremely thick black bar. The rest of the camo Elites took seats as the blue bastard uttered one word to the pilot, then went and sat down on my left hand side.
He snarled as one of the light blue camo Elites tended to his injured arm, the ship took off slowly. I glared at him for a full minute before turning my gaze to stare at my boots. I wished I had my pistol right now, I would shoot them Covenant 'freaks' all in the head, take over the ship and find some friendly's. But there is an apparent small, tincy, tiny problem. One I have absolutely no weapons, lost assault rifle, blue buddy has pistol. Every grenade I had which was not many, three to be exact, has been confiscated. Two there are eleven Elites all carrying plasma rifles. True one is injured, but still highly dangerous. Three I am bound to part of the ship and I doubt I can break free. I already tried to no avail. The cuffs are way too strong.
So I thought to myself I will wait bide my time and hopefully with Wallace's help I can find another way to escape. "Wallace," I whispered ever so quietly "I'm glad I'm not alone." "Don't worry I'll never leave you." He replied in the same quiet tone.
Part III
The drop ship touched down 27 minutes later in a small open field. I was shoved roughly out of the ship, almost landing in the arm's of an Elite who looked at me in disgust. They flanked me and we started marching towards a Covenant Battle Cruiser gravity lift 50 meters straight a head. The whole Cruiser is surrounded by a lush thick green forest. Two Elites grabbed both of my arms as human and Elite walked on to the grav lift platform. Almost instantly static crackled around the outside of my armor. I felt the hair on the back of my neck stand on end. Everything started to melt and dissolve into darkness, felt the sensation of being lifted upward, then as quickly as it happened it was over.
I reappeared on the inside of the Cruiser. A group of Jackals and Grunts patrolled this area. One Grunt in orange tinted armor spotted me being led across the room and broke out into a panic, the rest froze. "Crazy human-must-run-away-to-save-self yikes!" The Grunt tripped over his own feet got up and hid panting behind a pillar. Two Jackals near by laughed at the panicked Grunt gave each other a Jackal 'high five', then carried on with their business. I laughed silently inside at the sight of the scaredy cat Grunt.
The Elites led me down three long corridors, we took three right turns then two left turns. Finally stopping in front of a single sliding door. A small plaque was above the door, inscribed on it in Covenant language I assumed that's what it is, was possibly the name of the Grand Field Master Elite I was about to meet. The blue Elite touched a series of lettered keys on a panel next to the door then waited. I couldn't see exactly which keys were pressed on account of a light blue back blocked most of my view. This kind of Covenant did tower over me by a couple of feet. A few seconds later the door hissed opened to reveal a dimly lit room, the size of a regular office back home. The room glowed an eerie light blue. A computer console and Covenant chair stood to the right side of the room.
I was pushed onto a four inch thick by seven foot long square of metal. The blue Elite then pushed three symbolized buttons on the wall next to where I am standing. Energy flickered as a force field went up around me, a cage was made. "Grand Field Master Luetumly will be here to interrogate you as soon as he's not busy." My blue 'buddy' told me as he and his friends left. "Great!" I said to myself as the door hissed shut and all was quite except for the sound of my own breathing and the ever so quite whorl of a small air duct fan. I slammed my left shoulder into the energy wall then cursed. "Don't worry Lieutenant I'll find us a way out sooner or later." Wallace said. "I pick sooner rather than later!" I replied glumly.
I am frustrated and I rarely get frustrated, well sometimes. My hands are still bound behind my back, so I decided to take a little anger out on the walls of my cage. What am I some kind of animal I thought as I kicked outwards over and over until Wallace yelled in my ear to stop. He told me it would not help the situation and he was getting tired of watching me. I was wasting my energy anyway. Instead I pasted back and forth thinking of all the horrible things I could do to my blue buddy once I got free. Wallace started quoting some of my favorite poems in order to try and calm me down. It worked, I settled in one corner of the cage legs stretched out. I tried some breathing exercises which I was tot long ago to slow things down and calm my body.
