Chapter 1 (revised)
Prologue:
"Captain, You wont freak'n believe this!" said Lieutenant Joyce with so much excitement.
"Calm down soldier, and tell me what you're so excited about!" screamed Captain Lock.
"We found it sir! We have finally freaking found it sir!"
"What have we found!" said the Captain hoping with so much anticipation that it was what he thought it was.
"Look for yourself sir! Sending live footage of probe 2045 to your pocket pc!"
The captain put his hand into his pocket and pulled out what resembled an old palm pilot, but much more complex. Instantly a video clip popped up on the panel. All he could see was what looked look an asteroid. His hope dropped suddenly.
"You've wasted my time just to show me a freaking asteroid Lieutenant!"
"Sorry sir, the asteroid got in the way. Ill move the probe right away."
Joyce opened up the probes command properties, and typed in the password. After a few taps with her fingers, the probe slowly started to move around the asteroid. The asteroid slowly revealed what the Captain thought was there. It was a gigantic world, with no water in sight. The whole planet must have been a whole city. There were at least 20 orbital guns, and about 200 cruisers and ships. There hope for defeating such a planet unexpectedly dropped. They knew that they were going to loose against them. What the humans have been looking for a long time, has finally been found. They found it; they found the covenant home world.
Chapter One:
"Felicia! Send this to all near by ships, right away! Do not! I repeat! Make sure this is not intercepted! Send the coordinates in encrypted code 204! Send it now! Now!" Joyce screamed Captain Lock.
"Right away sir." replied the AI.
The receiving ship's AIS quickly received the message and rapidly sent it to the next ship. In about a weeks time the news was already to Earth. The arrangement for an assault immediately began with some of the best-known men and women.
Earth, New York, New York City
700 hours EST time
"Anyone got any ideas for the assault. With such an army they have, this will be impossible. For once, I am out of ideas." barked the famous Sergeant Johnson.
"Mainly we have to figure out how to get threw such a force of ships, and take out the orbital guns. They said that there were only 200 ships, I think that's just because because
they were sent out to invade earth, or so they thought. Cortana what do you think we should do." said Admiral Karolten.
"Well, I think this is another perfect mission for the Spartans. If they were able to take out that force that was supposedly going to destroy earth, but was just fake coordinates that we planed , and they destroy such a force of covenant, imagine what more of them could do." said Cortana.
"What do you mean by that Cortana, hopefully not what we think you mean." said Sergeant Johnson.
"Exactly." said Cortana.
"So, Cortana do you mean you want us to raise more Spartans! Remember what happened last time! We raised the Spartans after taking them as children, and there flash clones dieing! Then, all the Spartans die accept a few! Also for the third Spartan project! Where the heck did those Spartans go! Does that sound successful!" barked Sergeant Johnson.
"First of all, our cloning processes are now much more developed, and there have been no side effects. Second, we will only take the children out during school, clone them, and bring them back before their parent's even know. Third of all these Spartans won't be able to be killed as easily. With Dr. Hasely's new weapons and Spartan amour, they will be much harder to defeat. Also with the covenant technology I captured before, I can duplicate myself into every Spartans system." said Cortana.
"Are you sure about this Cortana?" said Karolten with good hope in her.
"Definitely, if we can even just get 1 more Spartan it will make a big difference. We all have seen what one Spartan can do. I have hope in this project."
"Ok Cortana, I give you permission to start this project."
"What! You're giving her permission!" screamed Johnson.
"Shut up. Good luck Cortana. Oh, and one last question. Who is going to lead this project?" barked Karolten calmly.
"Oh, that's an easy one. Whom else do you think? The master of Spartans himself, Master Chief."
Chapter 2: Kelly
January 23, 2552
Brooklyn, heading to The Big Apple
Lieutenant Joyce
I jumped over the side of the warthog and landed right next to Master Chief.
"So chief, where to?"
"The Big Apple" he said when he slammed his foot on the peddle.
The warthog jumped forward and raced down the packed road.
"Where there?"
"Floyd Elementary School"
"And.. what are we going to do there?" I said in confusion.
"Top secret, all i can say is that where going to be observing some kids."
"Wait! Don't say where going to do what I think where doing."
"Exactly" Chief said with a wink.
The warthog suddenly came to a hop and we both hopped out.
"This way" said Chief, and he led me around the school, right to the playground where the kids were having recess.
"That's her." said Chief pointing to a group of girls doing each others hair, and nails.
In confusion, once again, I said, "All I see is a group of fashion freaks. Kind of reminds me of me when I was a kid"
"Look behind them, and you still are a fashion freak Joyce."
I slowly walked around the fashion freaks, and there she was. She was having a contest with what looked like a strong kid. They were both doing pull up on the monkey bars, the kid soon fell off after four, but there girl kept going and going.
"Wow." I said, "Haven't seen any girl this young like that."
"That's why she's perfect, Watch." pointing at the girl again.
She was just about to race another kid. Her friend blew a whistle and she instantly rushed ahead of the other kid, and creamed his butt. I stood there in amazement.
"Your right, she's perfect. Whats her name?" I replied and questioned.
"Kelly." he said with a smile.
"What about all the other kids?"
"Admiral already sent people out to retrieve them, we got her."
"So, how do you suppose we get her?"
"Well, you don't want to know. Its time for the show." he said while laughing so loud.
"What show?"
"You will see soon." said Chief while leading me to the bathroom in their gym.
He handed me the duffle bag he was holding.
"Change." he said.
I was confused, I slowly opened the duffle bag and started laughing.
"Uh uh... You must be kidding!" I said
"Does it look like I'm kidding?" he said with a very serious face.
I walked into the stall, and slowly changed into my costume. I walked back into the gym to chief, and there were all the kids looking right at me. They all started laughing at my costume. I had a big multicolored afro on, and a big red nose. I was a freak in a clown suite!
"Ladies and gentlemen! Boys and girls! Here is, Joyce the clown!" screamed Chief.
He walked towards me a whispered in my ear "Just let me do all the work."
After being hit with pies, attempting to juggle, and practically dying we had a little contest that we knew the girl would win.
"I am going to choose on person from the audience, to race Joyce! If you win, you get to ride in a Limo, and go out for pizza!" said Chief, while the crowd started cheering.
Chief slowly walked into the bleachers, and choose Kelly. Kelly lined up next to Joyce, and Chief blew the whistle. Joyce jolted off right beside Kelly. Kelly started trailing ahead, and Joyce kept stumbling, and finally gave up. The crowd started cheering.
"Good job. Now follow me to the limo." said Chief to Kelly.
Chief pulled out his cell phone and dialed a few numbers.
"Bring the limo." he said then hung up.
We all walked to the limo and hopped inside. The instant we got in we rushed away. We stopped at a warehouse and brought Kelly out.
"Where are we!?!" she screamed.
"Ever heard of a Spartan?" said Chief.
"No."
"You soon will."
They walked into the warehouse and after a while, Kelly or what they think was the real Kelly walked out with Joyce, and enjoyed her prize. She returned to school just like everyone supposed, but what no one knew was that that was a clone. The third Spartan project was about to begin, and this one wasn't going to fail!
