----------------------------------
Velvet POV
As we enter this structure I can't believe to see a whole advance room here. We just keep walking path while raising our weapons if we see White fang grunts came to ambush us or the sentinels would come and kill us if we messing with them. We see another door opened to see a platform with a glass on it. We were curious at first, but then, Johnson went to the advance computer which is a terminal as he pressed it and a platform is moving down like an elevator. While it goes down, Johnson said to us.
Johnson:" Alright, listen up. The white fangs might got the weapons here so we must take a cover and fire those fuckers. Once we're done, we'll contact UNSC base to sent more soldiers to guard this place so no one will get their hands on it."
Velvet:" Um... Excuse me."
Johnson:" Yes? What is it, bunny girl?"
Velvet:" What if we run into the sentinels?"
Johnson:" Then, we lowered our weapons so they think we're not their enemies."
Neptune:" If not?"
Johnson:" We'll shoot them if things goes wrong. Any more questions?"
He said. My team, Team SSSN & Johnson's men didn't say a word.
Johnson:" Okay. Let's move."
He said as the platform stops and the door is opened so we move out. We keep walking this place until we find the White fang. In the meantime, I talk to my team leader, Coco.
Velvet:" Coco, what do you think of this place?"
Coco:" Well, this place seems advanced. Although, I was wondering of how it ended up here in our world. Fox, Yatsuhashi, what do you think?"
Yatsuhashi:" Seems ancient here. It's like a temple that forerunner builds here."
Fox:" I agree."
Then, Team SSSN came to join our conversation.
Sage:" Um, we should careful this place. I mean, it got those robots like a security. Plus they might shoot us if we interfere them."
Scarlet:" It depends if someone is wanted to shoot them so badly."
Sun:" Man, imagine if we found this place first. We would have our own place."
Neptune:" Yeah, I doubt it. We don't know everything here except UNSC & SA knows everything in space."
Coco:" For once, I agree with you, Neptune."
Neptune:" Your welcome."
As we talking each other, Johnson give us a hand signal to stop. When we stopped, we see 4 flying robots which are called sentinels looking at us like they never seen us before. I'm was going to raise my plasma pistol but Coco stops me because I was scared that they will shoot us. We lowered our guns so we won't be a threat to them. Then suddenly, one of the sentinel went close to Johnson which he was confused but stay vigilant. Then, it went to the door as the other sentinels follows it. Johnson told us to follow them 'cause we seem like they wanted us to follow them so we did. As we follow the sentinels through every rooms, we see a big door in front of us. The 4 sentinels went to each sides as they guard it. Then, Sun asked Johnson.
Sun:" So... They led us here?"
Johnson:" It seem so. Probably they wanted us to go there."
Human marine:" I don't trust them. I'm feeling suspicious to them."
Johnson:" Don't worry, they won't hurt us so be cool."
He said as his men keep it cool of themselves. Me and my friends take a deep breath as we enter the door lies in there. We see a large room which we were surprised to see it.
Coco: "Wow..."
Velvet:" I never seen this big before..."
Human marine 1:" Sir, do you know what is this?"
Johnson:" For what I'm thinking, this must be a generator room."
Sun:" Wow... These generators are so huge."
Faunus marine 1:" Guys, look up."
As he said, we look up of a surprised to see a few of sentinels roaming around in this room, so I said.
Velvet:" Why are they roaming around on that generator?"
Human ODST 1:" I don't know. Just guarding their generator, of course."
Johnson:" Okay. Stay focus people. We have to find the White fang bastards."
Sun:" Yeah. But where?"
Johnson: Just follow my lead."
He said. We walk forward to see a computer at the front. We were curious to see what's in it. Johnson walk in and press a button to see a hologram sphere which we were surprised.
Fox:" So, What is it?"
Johnson:" Hmm... For what I know, this planet is a shield world and there are more forerunner structures somewhere in this planet."
Velvet:" Wait, shield world? What is that mean?"
Johnson:" From the history of Forerunner, when they about to fire the ring, they sent any remaining lifeforms to keep it somewhere so they won't get caught in the radius or they put a shield around the world so the radius can't effect it. Do you understand now."
He said as I nodded. After that, we see a blue hologram bridge appeared as it leads to other room. We stay cautious if the White Fangs are there so we enter the room to see more doors up ahead. We keep going through each doors until we reach to another room except it's different here. We saw another door that leads to another room. When we enter it, we are terrified to see dead White Fangs grunts & some pieces of sentinels.
Velvet:" Oh oum..."
I said as it's like I'm going to vomit it. Coco notice me so she calmed me down a bit.
Sniper team 1:" Dear God, they seems to have a fighting here."
Faunus marine 3:" Yeah. They must've take some of robots down while most of the robots killed them."
Faunus ODST 3:" At least, they didn't manage to get the weapons here."
Human ODST 1:" I agreed."
In small minutes of silence, Johnson said to us.
Johnson:" Well, I guess that's it. These poor bastards didn't finish their jobs when they messing with their stuff. Anyway, we should head back and establish a base here so no one will get hands of this place. Understood?"
All:" Sir, Yes, sir!"
Johnson:" Okay then. Corporal, you and some of your men will stay here and investigate more in this place while we head back to contact the HQ."
Human corporal:" Yes sir."
Johnson:" Good. The rest of you, we'll head back."
Neptune:" Finally, getting out of this advance building."
Then, we went back to the exit to conduct their HQ while some of his men went to investigate more about this place. I hope for sure that we won't end up dead like the White Fangs here.
Covenant outpost POV
Everything are set as the covenant troops are ready to find the forerunner structures to use against their enemy. Gork was preparing his weapon when someone is enter his room.
Elite sergeant:" Sir, a native human enter our outpost at outside. He surrender himself only he wanted to talk to someone who charge here."
Gork:" Is that so? Very well, I want to see that vermin. Bring it here."
Elite sergeant:" Yes sir. I'll bring him here right away."
He said as he left his room. 3 minutes later, he came back along with native human. Gork doesn't like him so much so he wanted to kill him but he said he wanted to talk first. Si, he said.
Gork:" Good. Now, leave us."
He said as elite sergeant left the room. He stared at human eyes with his hatred eyes that he wanted to impaled him with his sword. Then, a human said.
???:" You must be the one who charge here."
Gork:" Yes. And who are you human?"
Hazel:" My name is Hazel, and like I said, I'm here for talk with you."
Gork:" Hmm... Seems calmed for this moment. I didn't see you feel scared around here."
Hazel:" I have no fear to anyone here."
Gork:" Hmph. I guess you're worthy to live for now. So tell me, what do you want to talk about it?"
Hazel:" I've come here for proposal."
Gork:" Proposal? And what proposal that you offer me for?"
Hazel:" To have an alliance with my leader."
He said. In small minute, Gork laughed as he thinks he joking. After that, he stopped laughing and said.
Gork:" An alliance? Is it about the White Fang that I killed their negotiator before. You might know that it make a bad decision to come here for alliance with weaklings."
Hazel:" No. I'm not from the White Fang. Instead, I'm belong to my leader named Salem."
Gork:" Salem. Who is this Salem?"
Hazel:" She is a witch that creates a grimms for the first place and spread across in entire Remnant."
Gork:" So, she's a goddess of the beasts known as the grimms?"
Hazel:" Well, maybe..."
Gork:" And what is her purpose to create those beasts?"
Hazel:" To wipe out all humanity."
He said. Gork was surprised of what he said. His leader is a witch that wanted to wipe out the humanity. He reminded of the covenant that glassed the planet that are colonies by the humans during the war. He seems interested to him so he keep him alive for a time being. He will also call his prophet to know about it but for now, he needs to focus on his mission. So, he said to hin.
Gork:" Your words give me interested and this Salem of yours will be agreement to my leader. However, I have a mission to do. If you wanted to be worthy of living you must help me."
Hazel:" Hmm... And what do you need me do?"
Gork:" Your species that lives here didn't discovered the holy structure known as forerunner temple that will help us to defeat our enemy. If you willingly to help me, I'll conduct my prophet and explain about your terms so
he will accept your alliance with your leader. So, what is your decision?"
He said. Hazel is thinking of his decision that can gained his trust since he fought in brutal war with other humans from space. After that, he said to him.
Hazel:" Very well, I'll help you. If it gains your trust."
Gork:" No. You will gain the prophet trust. Not mine."
Hazel:" I see..."
He said as they both shaking their hands. Gork, Laok & Hazel goes to the phantom and went to find the forerunner structure.
Menagerie POV
At the Blake parents house, Miranda was at outside to have a fresh air after having a talk with Blake's father. She look at the town to see a lot of people are walking in the road. She was concerned of faunus future. She doesn't want them to deserve being discriminated for what they been through. Then, she notice that someone is walking straight to her so she turned around to see Blake's mother, Kali.
Kali:" Oh, hello there. I didn't see you there."
Miranda:" * chuckled a bit* Guess I like to be here."
She said. Kali went to beside her as she talking to her.
Kali:" So, what are you doing outside here by yourself?"
Miranda:" I'm just need to fresh air, that's all."
She said as she smiled at her and then, she look at the view.
Miranda:" You know, seeing your people here living here is kinda shamed for what they been through."
Kali:" Oh?"
Miranda:" I mean, every faunus are consider as second-class citizen and no one have accept to them as equal. Not to mention that they've been force to do a slave labor by the company."
Kali:" Yes. It is true that we've been through. That is why my husband created the symbol of our people."
Miranda:" The White fang."
Kali:" Exactly. That symbol is reminded us that we need our voices to reach them so they can accept us as equals and we use protest signs to show them how we've been through. My husband is leading the protest and it did well back in those days."
Miranda:" It is. But then, something went happen right?"
Kali take a sighed and said.
Kali:" Yes. In few years later, the faunus from outside & inside the White fang wanted a fast result to make it faster so my husband stepped down as high leader and appointed to Sierra Khan as a new high leader. But it became much worse, she doesn't wanted to continue of what my husband doing. Instead, she replace the protest signs to deadly weapons, using violence too much, destroying any human homes & business & steal the dusts from the dust company. My husband asking her that it won't make us equal if there's violence but she ignore us & threaten us if we interfere her so we give up & left the White fang."
After her story, Miranda now understand of how the White fang starts and ended up using violence against the humans to get the rights in fear. She reminded her of the insurrectionists that bombed the city in one of the colony planet before the covenant appeared and started the war. She willingly to help the faunus to give them a better future so she said to her.
Miranda:" Don't worry, the UNSC & SA will do our best to help your people. If we able to conduct our leaders from Earth, they will help us to take down any threats in this planet."
She said. Kali was smiled for a human like Miranda to willingly to help her people. So she said.
Kali:" Thank you. You and your group will help us in the future."
Miranda:" It's our job, ma'am."
She said. They were continue talking each other when one of Miranda soldier went to them and said.
Faunus 2:" Ma'am. LT. Connor is on the hologram at Chieftain's office room."
Miranda:" Alright, I'll be there. Ma'am, we should go now."
Kali:" Okay."
As she said, they went to office room to see LT. Connor on the hologram. In the room, Miranda, Blake, Kali & Ghira are waiting to call from Connor at the hologram. Then, he appeared and said.
Connor:" Capt. Miranda, we reach to desert region in Menagerie. We'll begin to start the operation to find a structure."
Miranda:" Good. Proceed the mission and make sure it won't fall into the wrong hands."
Ghira:" Also, I'll sent my 4 men to aid your support. They shall report me about the structure that we found in 2 years ago."
Connor:" Yes sir. I'll sent a Falcon helicopter to pick your men up."
Ghira:" Thank you."
He said as he salute to them and turn off the hologram.
Unknown to them, a female figure wearing a grimm mask with 2 tiny horns on it is spying on them from outside to see them being helped by Miranda keyes. When she heard about humans & faunus are lived together in Reach city that gives her surprised and happy to see them co-exist. However, the White fang doesn't like it because they think they're using them as puppets to go against them. She disagree for what they say, but she still stay in White fang in order to not be a traitor. After seeing them helping each other, she went back to her base to inform to high leader Khan.
