Mission 001 [Dictated]

[noble5.livejournal.com]

[There's a clunking sound over the journals, one attributed to someone wearing some heavy-duty armour picking themselves up from the ground.

This time, it belongs to one Chief Warrant Officer Jorge-052, waking up in his room in the castle...

And wondering how the hell he got there.]

... Ugh. Where the hell am I?

[A pause, and then the following filters out]

This is Noble Five, calling on all UNSC frequencies. Requesting pickup. Current location... [He looks around] Unknown. Looks to be... [Another pause] Some sort of fancy hotel room. Repeat, requesting pickup, over.

[His journal is open nearby, and any UNSC personnel who happen to have their radios on will hear the transmission.]

((OOC: Open to all. Be ready to have one confused Supersoldier.))

So, Reach was glassed.

[He said it himself. It was painfully obvious.]

That planet was good to me. I'm glad to hear that it's sacrifice was for humanity's best hope.

...

Kat told me some things she found out about our future from her friends here from the future. The war ends. Humanity will win.

Wasn't completely in vain, at least.

[noble5.livejournal.com]

Well, that's something good to hear...

[He'a trying to sound neutral, but Reach held a little bit of sentiment for him.]

[lonenoble]

[Moving to sit down on the bed, most of the happiness at seeing Jorge again faded...]

[noble5.livejournal.com]

Six...

[He moves over, not sitting down, but bending down and putting his hand on her shoulder]

I can't imagine what it must've been like.

[lonenoble]

The only one I didn't see die was Jun. He was put on escort duty for Halsey. To make sure she got to safety...

[Jorge didn't really have anything to say to that. There were no words.

Instead, he turns and sits next to Six, the bed dipping a bit under his weight, leaving that hand on her shoulder, as he reaches up to take his helmet off with his other.]

What are the chances that this place'll suck in the others?

[lonenoble]

It's unpredictable. Kat was here for over a year alone before I arrived. But it only took a few months for you to arrive after I did

[noble5.livejournal.com]

A year alone? [Jorge stares off.]

When were you taken from?

[lonenoble]

It was August 30th.

[Another sigh]

I'm.. I'm glad you held out as long as you did.

[A pause, there. This was a bit difficult.] If you ever need someone to talk to about this, I'm open.

[lonenoble]

Of course I did. I'm a survivor.

[Stiffening at that.] I don't want to talk about it, Jorge.

[noble5.livejournal.com]

Got it.

[lonenoble]

Thank you, Jorge.

[noble5.livejournal.com]

No need to thank me.

So... [Topic change!]

This place seems quiet. [There's something about his tone that says he doesn't like it.]

[lonenoble]

That's not going to last. Never does.

[noble5.livejournal.com]

Good thing or a bad thing?

[lonenoble]

Place turned into Paris for a few weeks. And it truned Two into a cat before that. So... both?

[noble5.livejournal.com]

It turned Kat into a cat? I bet she loved that...

[There's a pause]

... Do you like it here?

[lonenoble]

She only had 3 legs. It was unique.

... I think so. It's not bad. Better than dead, I think.

[noble5.livejournal.com]

Because of her arm?

...And I suppose you're right. Better than an eternity in jump space.

[lonenoble]

Exactly.

More exciting, at least.

[noble5.livejournal.com]

From what you've told me, that sounds right.

...Do you know Agent Carolina?

[lonenoble]

Freelancer. Don't know her that well though.
