This entry is about how we get back to Truths ship and I how i give Truth a piece of my mind. It is also about an old friend.

(Day Dream Start)

I sat awaiting for us to drop out of Slip-Space.

Alias was sleeping for the first time. He never got to sleep since he had been getting chased by flood. He was curled up in a ball on the floor, his tail and hands covered his face.

Cheetor was also asleep on the ground. Scarface and Henry were still awake, they didn't look tired at all.

 I looked at Scarface and Henry, "Hey Scarface, I've always meant to ask, why don't you like being called Afri?" I asked.

"I don't know, I just prefer Scarface." He said.

"hmm, Sorta like me I guess."

"Your name is not really Cheetar?" He sounded shocked.

"Yeah, But I'm not telling you my real name, not yet anyway." I grinned.

Scarface smiled, "You're so mischievous."

"I know... and I'm a evil, in a good way."

"No yer not"

"Yeah I am!"

Henry sighed, "You two are so strange."

"Someone wake up Alias." I said.

"You," Scarface grinned.

I looked at Rtas who was being awfully quite, "Rtasy, can you wake em up?"

"Fine." He said as he poked Alias, "Get up."

Alias clawed at him then hissed. Alias got up, stretched, then yawned. His yawn sounded a lot like a screech but it didn't pierce your ears.

"Good Morning Ali, do you know when we're going to drop out of Slip-Space?" I asked.

"2 Minutes." Alias replied as he looked at the Navaigation Console. He yawned again, "We should wake up Cheetor."

I grinned, "Time for alittle payback." I walked up to Cheetor and shook him, "Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" I yelled.

Cheetor groaned," Go away."

"No", I continued to shake him. Cheetor got up and growled. "Payback!" I said to him.

"Payback cause I woke you up like that?"

"Yeah."

Cheetor looked out of a view port. "We almost there yet?" Cheetor asked.

"yep" Alias replied,"50 more seconds to go."

"Yeah 50 seconds till' I kill Truth.... Sorta." I said

"Whats with the sorta?" Scarface asked.

"Well it will take more then 50 seconds to kill him, especially if he has those stupid body guards with him."

"30 seconds to go." Alias announced.

I was excited to get out of this small Phantom and into the Big Covenant cruiser. I looked at Cheetor, he was yawning and about to fall back asleep. "Cheetor yer chainsaw's broken." I grinned.

"What?' Cheetor looked at me and tilted his head. "You better be lying."

"Just kidding." I laughed, "You looked kinda freaked out."

Cheetor crossed his arms over his chest, "Not Funny."

"We drop out of Slip-space.... now!" Alias said. once he said that word we dropped out of it. Alias flew the Phantom into Truths main ship.

"Lock and Load." I said as I grabbed my two energy swords, DMR, and Armour Abilities.

Alias grabbed his Sniper, and Armour abilities, He also grabbed a Gernade Launcher which was an odd choice for him. Cheetor, of course, had his Chainsaw, DMR, and Armour Abilities.

I then realized  something about my squad. Alias and Scarface always had long range weapons, Cheetor and Henry always had short range weapons. I was both because I used long and short ranged weapons.

I also noticed that Alias and Scarface were more of the brave and mature, while Cheetor and Henry were brave but mainly immature and again I was both.

"Cheetar, whats the plan?" Alias asked.

"The Plan is to activate our active camo, crawl in the vents until we reach Truths council room." I winked at Alias, "You should know the rest." Alias winked back, saying that he knew the plan.

"We Don't know the rest." Rtas said.

"You'll catch on, now lets go."

We all activated our active camo and went out of the Phantom. We made our way toward a vent, Alias opened the vent. I crawled in, Everyone else followed. We past the armory, a couple of Grunt rooms and the honor guards. We were now right above the council room.

Truth was talking to the other council members. I couldn't hear what they were talking about, but whatever it was it had to be important.

"lets crash a party Ali." I whispered.

Alias hissed softly, then opened a vent hatch. He crawled onto the wall and helped me to the ground. After Alias safely got everyone to the ground we walked to the middle of the room. 

This was a very good time to have the 'You can't see us, but we can see each other' type of active camo.

I signaled Scarface and Henry to surround Truth, Regret, and Mercy. Scarface walked up the ramp and blocked their left exit. Henry walked up and blocked their right exit.

Cheetor and Alias stood beside me, Cheetor to my right and Alias to my left. Rtas stood next to Cheetor, for some reason he looked confused and disoriented.

I tilted my head then looked at Truth and listened to his conversation.

"The Great Journey is upon us." he said, "now all we need is the Sacred Icon." Excitement rose from the other Councillors. " Nothing can stand in out way, not the flood, demons, Humans, not even Cheetar, they will all die." He said

My arms tensed and I growled lowly at the mention of my name.

"Nothing can stop us." He continued," Even if the Sangheili or Unggoy betray me."

"Just how You betrayed Me?" I snarled as I deactivated my active camo.

"You're alive!?" Truth said, amazed.

"Surprised?" I asked, "Hmph I guess you made a bad mistake of leaving me behind."

Alias, Cheetor, and Rtas deactivated their active camo.

Truth looked at them then at me. "I'm impressed." He said "But you made a bad mistake coming back here."

Regret and Mercy tried to go down the tamp but they were stopped by Scarface, they tried to go down the other ramp but they were stopped by Henry.

I laughed, "You're trapped Idiots." Some council members stood up and started to yell at us. " Oh Shut up!" I yelled back at them.

Alias made a screeching noise. I turned. 4 guards had walked in.

I knew they thought something bad was about to happen, and that was exactly what was going to happen.

Alias looked at me, "Do what ever you're going to do cause thing are about to get ugly... fast."

I turned and clicked something to Scarface and Henry. They nodded and began to slowly walk closer to Truth, their weapons were raised ready for any sudden movements.

I looked back at the honor guards, there was only 3 now, one of them probably went to get help. Alias was right things were about to get ugly.

I ran up the ramp then jumped on the rail in front of the Prophets. " You won't live long enough to leave me on a ring again." I snarled at them.

Truth glared at me.

Alias screeched again. I turned to see 3 dozen Honor guards standing by the Door with their metal staffs raised.

I climbed down the rail and back to the middle of the room with Alias.

"Rtas." Truth said. "Who do you believe  in, who do you want to join? Cheetar's group or me?"

I looked at Rtas expectantly.

He looked then at Truth and back. He gave me a sad look, lowered his head, and stepped back a little.

"So?" Truth growled. "Who."

Rtas hesitated then spoke, "I-I'm sorry Cheetar." He said "But I'm with the Prophets."

My eyes widened, "WHAT!?" I was shocked, " He trapped you on a stupid halo ring!"

Rtas stepped back again.

I looked at Truth with hate burning in my eyes, "I'm going to kill you!!" I yelled as I activated my energy swords and ran toward the prophets.

The Honor then started to attack. Alias snarled and shot at them.

I sliced at Truth several times but he kept moving. I paused and looked down at Cheetor, Rtas was actually attacking him. His sword was raised and he was slicing at Cheetor. Cheetor kept jumping, I could tell he didn't want to hurt his old friend even if he did betray us.

I looked back at the door and saw groups of Brutes, Grunts, Jackals, and Elites run through the door and shoot at my small group.

"Cheetar!" Scarface yelled, " Stop Truth!"

I turned around to see Truth trying to get past Henry. Truth was shooting at him with a plasma pistol. I snarled "Scarface can you deal with him? I want to go help Ali and Cheet."

Scarface nodded and began to shoot at Truth.

I jumped down from the rail, kicked a brute in the neck, then jumped next to Alias. He smiled at me, I smiled back.

An Elite tried to punch Alias but got kicked by Cheetor.

I turned. Rtas ran at me, top speed, ready to strike.I sighed "Sorry Rtasy." I lifted my elbow and Rtas ran head first into it. He bellowed in pain as he fell to the ground.

Alias screeched then stabbed a Jackal with his tail. He then grabbed a Grunt trying to run away. Alias stabbed his claws into the grunts eyes and ripped off it's head.

Gore splashed everywhere but it surprisingly didn't hit Alias. I, on the other hand, got splattered by it.

I roared then helicopter kicked a Brute. I heard it's spine crack, it hit the ground, squirming. I then stabbed it with my energy sword.

I heard Henry roar. I looked up at one of the ramps. I saw Truth shoot Henry with the plasma pistol. Henry dropped to the ground, he wasn't dead, that's for sure but he wasn't getting up.

Scarface growled at Truth and kicked him off of his floating chair. Truth rolled down the ramp and six meters away from me.

I saw a Brute grab Scarface and hold him back. I also saw two Elite honor guards jump down from the ramp and run at me. I looked at the Honor Guards with no enthusiasm. The guards raised their staffs. I barrel rolled to the right then jumped at the guards.

I was to quick for them. I had sliced one of their staffs and then stabbed one in the stomach. The Honor Guards mandibles twitched, I yanked my sword away and the body fell, lifeless.

I looked back at the other Guard. He looked at me with hate burning in his eyes. I waited for him to attack. After a few seconds, he did, he leap and tried to grab my arms. He screamed as I sliced off his hand. He fell to the ground. I raised my sword and stabbed him.

"Cheetar! To your right!" Alias yelled.

I turned and saw Rtas, his sword was once again raised and ready to strike. I blocked his attack then pushed him away. "Rtas, the prophets have betrayed us." I said.

Rtas looked at me sadly. He knew I didn't want to hurt him and I knew he didn't want to hurt me.

We stood face to face, looking at each other wondering who was going to attack first.

"Cheetar?" A familiar voice said.

"Thel?" I said turning to see an Arbiter standing in front of the door.
