Pilgrim: All Longswords your job is to protect those ships do understand?
Longsword's 1-8: Sir Yes Sir.
A massive space battle takes shape. As the Longswords twist and dive shooting down several Banshees trying their hardest to protect the transports, but with only 8 fighters and seemingly endless Banshees and Seraphs. The battle is not favorable to the UNSC. Soon the entire transport was down to 5 transports.
Longsword 1: Sir we can't stay around for much longer. Bogies are crawling all over our objective.
Pilgrim: Negative, we can not lose any more of those transports!
Longsword 1: *sigh* Understood sir.
Gradually all remaining transports make it aboard Olympus Mons all except for one...

Dot: Captain we have arrived at the dockyard. unfortunately, the Pillar of Autumn is not ready to disembark
Pilgrim: WHAT! Keyes was supposed to be out of the atmosphere by now get me a direct line to Admiral Keyes now!
Dot: Very well sir.
Pilgrim: Admiral this is the Captain Pilgrim of the UNSC Olympus Mons what is the issue down there? We cannot stay for long before the Covenant fleet detect our presence we need to leave ASAP.
Keyes: That is a negative Captain we are still awaiting the package from NOBLE team.
Dot: Sir I have detected multiple covenant ships heading to our position.
Pilgrim: Alright sir tell them to double-time it. We will buy you as much time as possible
Keyes: Thank you, Captain.
Pilgrim: Dot, sound the alarms tell everyone to get into battle stations, and patch me into the PA system.
Dot: Done you are live Captain.
Pilgrim over the PA: Alright men we have several contacts on our sensors I need all men at battle stations. Direct the refugees to the safest parts of the ship. Our job is to buy Admiral Keyes enough time to get the package and launch the Pillar of Autumn. I will not lie men the odds are against us but these Covie bastards never felt the power of Olympus Mons and remember men. Usque Ad Uitimum Per!
Crew: USQUE AD UlTIMUM PER!
What followed next was a battle of massive proportions as 9 covenant cruisers faced the massive Dreadnought. thousands of rounds fired from both sides missiles flying, lasers cutting, and massive tungsten bullets cutting through shields.
Pilgrim: Sir you better hurry up we can not hold this position for much longer!
Dot: Captain, we have sustained excessive damage to the hull and to some of the engines.
Keyes: We have the Package. I repeat we have the Package. We are leaving the dock now.
Pilgrim: Understood prepare for immediate slipspace the moment you get up.
Keyes: understood the drive is ready. See you up there captain.
Suddenly, a giant blue portal opens, and the Pillar of Autumn escapes through it to get to the Halo ring.
Pilgrim: Dot, Activate the drive we need to get out of here and soon.
Dot: understood sir slipspace in 3..2..1
A second massive Blue portal opens and the Olympus Mons escapes leaving Reach to its fate.
