Seven can hear the sound of the propellers from the falcon as it flies through the air. Seven finds this sound more relaxing than the constant gunfire from earlier that day. Seven was sitting alone on the edge of the falcon. West was sitting beside Amber and across from Amber was Jun, " well I think it's time that we found out who won our little bet " Amber says into the coms. Seven looks back at Amber confused to what she was talking about. Amber looks at the scores, " you've gotta be kidding me!" She exclaims into the com" seven you got the most kills out all of us"Amber finishes saying." I thought we were counting every one but him?" West replies on the coms," that's a good point, Jorge you are the winner!" Amber finishes." Oh good this should be fun" Jorge exclaims. Seven looks down at his utility, as he opens it up he took out a device witch hade photos of planets and a squad of Spartans. Seven turns it around and there where names beside numbers, there where five Spartans on the picture and only four games and five sets of numbers." what you got their seven?" Jun asks as his head was turned to him. Seven quickly put the picture back into his utility. Seven turns his head over to Jun who had his helmet off. Seven knew that Jun was expecting answer, although he didn't want to answer" why you asking? " he replies he didn't want an answer though." well because out of all the Spartans even Emile you don't talk at all, so that's why" Jun insists for him to talk even if he didn't say it. seven loos down not knowing what to reply. No one had ever complained about him not talking much till he joined noble team. Hunt was riding on the other falcon with Carter, Kat, Emile and Jorge. Jorge and Emile sat their backs facing each other each looking off into the distance. Kat was talking to Carter about how the new recruits where. Hunt could tell this because every time she started naming people and it got to seven she says it as if it were his name. Hunt has his helmet off his black Curley hair bristled on the ride home, his eyes were fixed on a medical sign on the utility he carried. " Hunt" Carter randomly says and continued" good work out there, though I think you should be able to patch up soldiers quicker than that" Carter both chastised him and compliments Hunt, " ehm... Yes, sir " Hunt replies nervously. " when will we be getting their " Amber complains, " it's already been the longest half an hour ride ever" Amber finishes. No one responds." seriously someone anyone?" Amber exasperates, she just wants to make small talk to make time go faster. " Amber, never mind " Carter was begging then stop trying to make small talk. Seven looks at the beautiful giant mountains that where surrounding them. Seven thought to himself * man this is a long ride since that Amber girl hasn't shut up* another half an hour passes barely anything but Carter and Kat who were discussing the new recruits. Seven could see the base from here and smiles. "Welcome home boys and girls, you arrived just in time for dinner," a voice says over the radio, Although Hunt hade herd it before and tries to remember, then it snapped it was the voice from the marine who had the ace of spades on the side of his helmet.
