Black Spartans

Reunited in the worst Way

"Its your squad, heard you wanted to talk to us?" 727 asked, his helmet melting back into his armor, the others following in sync.

"Lukas! Its good to see you! Its been a long time!" Asaroth laughed, waving through the screen.

"Far too long my old friend, far too long." 727 laughed. "Oh and it's Mark now." He added, as a afterthought.

"A name change? Why?" Asaroth asked, Mark shrugged. 

"I decided to go with my real name for now on, not my alias's. But what about you? Whats been going on in your neck of the woods brother." Mark asked.

Asaroth laughed. "I was actually going to ask if the legion could help my ship out, we have a report of dangerous rebels in the Kanna Sector, But I am glad it is you I found, I believe I owe the arbiter dinner now." Asaroth said, The Black Legion laughed loudly, all pleased to see their old friend. 

"However, who occupies your old armor, I see you have a new suit, but I see the old armor watching as well." Asaroth asked, looking to Alpha. 

"When we are at home, Alpha can take over my old armor, wave hello Alpha." Mark called, Alpha waved. 

"It is good to see you again Asaroth, you seem to have grown up further." Alpha said to Asaroth. 

"The same to you Alpha, I am glad you were with Lu-Mark, he can be foolish on his own." Asaroth said, shaking his head. 

"HEY! IM RIGHT HERE!" Mark yelled out, the room burst into laughter, before Asaroth looked around in confusion. 

"Where is Shadow? I do not see his armor among your group, is he in one of the new armors?" Asaroth asked. The group fell silent, everyone looking to Asaroth. 

"He... retired Asaroth, he has a family now, but... the two behind me, this is my niece, Moon." Mark said, chosing the words carefully, he knew Asaroth would most likely yell at Shadow, or Alice, for her betraying him like that. 

"And this... is her boyfriend, leader of the Omega team." Mark continued, pointing to Washington. 

"Haha, so that is Agent Washington... and I thought your recruit was Carolina? Not Moon." Asaroth said, Mark looked at him confused.

"How did you..." Boom asked. Before a familiar face walked onto the frame. 

"Morning boss, I met your friend." Sixer said, Sixer was the name Noble Six took, swearing to become a better person, a better leader. 

"Sixer, I should have known, how's that human insurgency going?" Mark asked, a gentle smile on his face. 

"I believe they are nearly defeated, they have been doing more hiding then fighting, they are running scared Boss." Sixer laughed, Mark nodded. 

"So you met up with Asaroth? How'd that happen?" Mark asked, Sixer shrugged. 

"Met him at a colony, asking if anyone knew how to Contact the Black Legion, right place, right time boss." Sixer said, I nodded, that seemed to happen a lot with his Legion.

"Good, well you best get moving Sixer, I have another mission for Hunter Team ready." Mark said, Sixer nodded, nodded to Asaroth, and walked off frame. 

"So, down to business, what do you need done Asaroth, ill even knock the fee for you." Mark asked, his brain changing to focus more. 

"There is no need for that, I simply would ask for some reinforcements so we can destroy these Rebels. Here are the coordinates." Asaroth said, sending over coordinates. 

"Alpha, isnt that..." Mark asked, he had seen that planet before. 

"It is, sir these were the reports of a navy of rebel ships, including a war cruiser, and a large covenant base below, AA guns, at least twenty thousand elites ." Alpha agreed. Mark grit his teeth, this could be bad if he didnt send the right people, and many of them.
