(Halo x RWBY) Remnants of the Reclaimers

First Impressions (Usually Are Tough)

"I'm sorry students, but the field test that was to be conducted today in the Emerald Forest has been canceled due to a freak storm." Professor Glynda Goodwitch said to the assembled first year Beacon students.

"However this test will take place instead on Friday. Since afternoon classes were canceled for this exercise, I am going to ask you all to participate in a team building exercise of some sort, and give a small summary of what you did and why. These assignments will be turned in tomorrow at the beginning of combat class."
There was a collective groan from the students at the mention of an assignment, as they were all looking forward to finishing their exercise and having the rest of the day off.

Back at the dorm, the four members of team RWBY were debating on what they should do for the project. Yang Xiao Long, the loud excitable brawler, suggested that they have a race of some sort for their team-building exercise.

However, Ruby Rose, the childish leader of the team quickly said, "But that would be competitive. Professor Goodwitch specially said 'Team Building', not a competition. Besides you always win when there is driving involved"
"Fine." huffed Yang
"Ooh, I know," Weiss Schnee, the heiress to the famous Schnee dust company, interjected, "We could go to the museum, they have a new exhibit on the development of flight and aircraft. We could learn as a team."
Blake Belladonna, the dark, quiet Faunus girl, said, "How about something that we have to work together on? I know a cool escape room that just opened up in Vale."
Ruby jumped up on one of the beds, "Everybody listen up," she shouted, "Your team leader has an idea. We go into the Emerald Forest, and we make a mini-newscast of the storm. Just think about it: we all have to work together to do it. Blake can be camera lady, I can be the reporter, Weiss will be the anchorwoman, and Yang will be Grimm protection. It's perfect, we work as a team, and it's fun!"
Yang punched a gauntleted fist into the air, "YEAH! Let's do this."
"Not too bad of an idea; we wouldn't have to write a summary, because we just turn in the newscast with an explanation," Blake added quietly.
"Wait, isn't the storm why the exercise was canceled in the first place?"
"Stop worrying Weiss, we'll be fine," Ruby said, exasperated.

Four shadows ghosted into an abandoned underground warehouse. Their leader gave the all clear. Four Spartans, fourteen-year-old super soldiers who could easily pass as young adults due to physical augmentations, walked into the center of the warehouse.

They revealed themselves as John-117, Linda-058, Fred-104, and Kelly-087.

Quickly searching boxes in the room, they looked for anything that might help them to complete their training mission. John was worried and lost in thought as his team scoured the room and he held watch, the trainers were given much better equipment this time, full power armor suits, sure they couldn't move very far from their power generators, but they were much more powerful in strength and speed, almost comparable to the Spartan's own, and there were a lot more trainers than Spartans. He wasn't sure how they were going to get the flag this time.

"You should see this," Kelly called to the others, pulling John out of his thoughts. What she had called them over to see was a massive hole in the floor, leading to a dark cavern. It looked like a sinkhole had formed and collapsed after this facility had been abandoned.
"Linda, you're in first. Fred, I want you down in close support, Kelly you follow after all clear. I'll be third after a 10 second delay." John ordered.
The searching beam of Linda's flashlight illuminated a large cavern made of foreign metal, which was clearly made by some intelligent race. John wasn't sure if this was an ONI project, or the first sign of this new alien intelligence that the covenant worshipped. Either way, the Spartans had to be careful.

The group immediately had their gaze drawn to the center of the room. There was an open area surrounded by four pillars pointing towards the center, forming a bare bone, futuristic teepee.
