What do you want alpha

Right before we start this small cluster a chapters are taking place during season 9.

In the middle of an isolated box canyon lies two bases one blue and one red, a cobalt blue solder stood near his base with his thoughts to himself. The alpha didn't know why he was here but he was for now happy...

On the edge of a cliff stood Epsilon and with him the other fragments "what are we waiting for he's right there" omega said, but Epsilon held him back "no we need to take this slowly we don't want to overwhelm him " the memory A.I explained. "Epsilon is correct overwhelming him may cause him more harm then good" delta agreed, the others shifted around trying to kill time while Epsilon thought up a plan.

"Right...Alright guys we need to introduce ourselves one by one...so who wants to go first?" Epsilon said, he wasn't surprised that all of them raised their hands up "dumb question " he mumbled to himself.

"Uhhh...theta I chose you!" Epsilon exclaimed, pointing out his finger the others looked jealous for obvious reasons but the memory A.I said if the alpha had his trust this will go by smoothly.

Down at blue base alpha stood by the beach he looked out at the empty vastness, nothing but water for miles and miles on end. The only thing of interest was the ring like structure within the sky "uh...alpha?" The child like fragment said, alpha turned to the smaller one and stared at him obviously confused. "Hi there " he awkwardly said, the violet and magenta fragment shuffled his feet finding the ground more interesting "hi" theta quietly said.

"I'm theta" he introduced himself, "your...your my trust aren't you?" Alpha asked, the smaller fragment nodded at him still shuffling his feet. "Yeah we're...we're all here " theta said, the main A.I closed the distance between the two and held out his hand.

His trust looked at him nervously before taking it, and memories of north Dakota rushed his mind, him and everyone he knew and loved flooded his head like a dam ready to burst. North was a caring man, some called him the papa bear of the project fiercely, loyal and protective of those he loved and always there to lend a hand, the man cared so much it was even to a fault.

But alpha felt he could trust him anyway...

Later on sigma was there, he was the alphas ambition so he was the most anxious to be reunited with him. No words were exchanged between the two, he remembered Carolina at first she seemed to be hot headed and competitive but kind and caring too. She didn't use sigma often, then it was Maine and sigma had a new purpose one he didn't like as something to mearly translate what Maine said when he could do so much more.

Sigma wasn't happy...all he wanted was to be human or as close to being one anyway, so he obsessed over Metastabilaty till it almost drove him insane.

The twins was no different as they spent the least amount of time with Carolina, but it was apparent that they were scared when she was thrown off the cliff.

Gamma was fond of Wyoming the two were two peas in a pod and always had a knock knock joke at the ready, but he was a little different he was remembering the reds n' blues but why? Was it because of him?

The same could be said about omega as he was his rage omega was angry at everything, he refused to leave tex. Even though she never used him, he was suprisingly patient with her.

But he too possessed memories of the reds n' blues but this time it was about Texas.

Delta was the logic...his logic to be exact, but dispite his sometimes boring demeter he was fond of York. The locksmith that never could seem to crack a code without his help, yorks humor, his charm, and him always striving to reach out to Carolina. York was someone delta considered to be his best friend, and alpha liked that he hoped that he could meet him soon.

Beta was his falier she was apart of him that manifested into allison but not allison at the same time, the allison before was cold hearted and almost cruel in a way while the one he missed so much was more kind and loving but a scary woman. Alpha supposed he too was cruel for trying to bring back the dead, but he'll forever love her no matter what.

And now before him stood his memory... the last peace of the puzzle, something that would make him whole once more. "Hey alpha " that was all Epsilon said, like he did before the alpha A.I held out his hand and Epsilon wasn't hesitant in taking it.

The memories of Washington came, the man was patient but paranoid, kind but ruthless, silent but loud too. A man with a history, one that was covered in black ink. A man who led a life as a ghost.

Dispite Epsilons kicking and screaming when he was first to enter the world the spartan was holding the patients of a saint, he talk and talk and talk. He'd tell Epsilon stories about anything and the A.I who would slowly calm down would eventually start to Listen, he would always be comforted by the soothing sound of washs voice...

Hours later...

Outside the A.I unit Dr. Halsey waited for alpha to be completed she knew it'd take awhile for him to be whole, for being fractured for as long as he was, the broken A.I needed time to adjust.

A faded blue light flickered, she didn't pay mind to the flickering she knew he was adjusting to being whole again. She typed away on her computer the light of the flickering intensified and the A.I appeared, alpha looked around at the small laboratory apparently halsey didn't notice him yet.

The room was filled with information, information he wanted to learn about so he got to work. The first thing that caught his attention was the history of the human race, so much of it was about war while others was ether politics or plagues, alpha had the sense of humor that humanity is in a way is very much like cockroaches throw anything at them and they'll rise above it all.

"I see you recovered " the soothing tone of the doctor said, the A.I looked up at her " I think so " he said, halsey hummed in acknowledge "I'll let noble six know about your progress but I want you to recover fully. In the mean time rest and we'll see what you want in your spartan carrier " she stated, alpha simply agreed and went back to his reading.

Elsewhere....

Wash traversed the Blue Dawn towards the bridge, he needed to speak with cova about this group that called themselves the banished. I didn't know if they were a new division within the covenant, or one that became a splinter group?

When he reached the deck he saw the ultra speak to a second spartan, the spartan was smaller then the rest of the III's he only reached to to washs shoulders while spartan III's were slightly smaller then the II's but it was just above the shoulder. "Ah it's good to see you my friend " cova greeted wash, the spartan smiled under his helmet as the sengallii clasped a hand onto his shoulder.

"Who's your friend?" He asked, as he motioned to the smaller spartan "this is isaac " isaac wore a scout helmet and heloskrill armor set it was part of the newer models, "I should head back before Jack bites my head off" the new spartan IV said, as isaac walked off wash turned to the ultra "I was wandering something and I am hoping that you could answer it" he asked.

"Ask away " cova casually said, "while on my mission I encountered a group of covenant that called themselves the banished " wash said, cova was shocked at the question " are you alright?!" Cova asked slightly panicked.

"Of course why?" Wash asked, "the banished are a splinter group lead Atriox they are a ruthless group of mercenaries, that will hunt their enemies and ransack any and all ships...or at least that is what is said" cova briefly said, "well the was an elite had a red energy sword I believe he was possibility part of the silent shadow" wash added.

"This is unsettling I'll be sure to let my ship master know of this" cova said to the spartan as he clasped both of his hands onto washs shoulders "be careful my demon friend silent shadows hold grudges and may seek revenge " cova warned, the spartan nodded and thanked the sangheili before walking off to hopefully return to his mission of finding the director of project freelancer.
