After having defeated the Meta, the Reds and Blues return to Valhalla, only to be brought back in action by Slade's long lost and presumed dead love, Agent Carolina. Slade now begins to question Carolina's methods of justice with rather revenge than...
Director: And they have no idea where he came from?
Director Leonard Church of Project Freelancer was conversing with Counselor Aiden Price over the recent discovery of something.
Counselor: Two of our engineers found him unconscious and his armor smoking behind one of our Pelicans. They heard a sound of electricity and a blue light emanate from behind the ship and he was there.
Director: I see.
Both men were watching as several medics were taking off the man's armor. One of the medics exited the room and handed the man's helmet to the Director.

Medic: Personally, Director, I've never seen a suit like this. It's clearly not made by the UNSC, and if I'm being honest, sir, it doesn't seem like it was made by humans either.
The Director looks at the helmet's visor before turning to the Counselor.
Director: Counselor, the Freelancers must not know yet of our discovery. I believe we have a mystery to solve as to this man's origins.
Counselor: Understood, Director.
Director: (turns back to the medic) Continue removing his armor however you can. And keep him sedated until I say otherwise.
Medic: Yes, sir.
The Director and Counselor head to the meeting room where they discuss battle plans with the Freelancers. The Director rests the strange helmet on a table and turns to the screen behind him.
Director: FILSS, analyze this helmet for data logs or anything of importance.
F.I.L.S.S.: Yes, Director.
F.I.L.S.S. scans the helmet until suddenly the lights immediately shut down and the whole room became pitch black.
Director: FILSS, status report. (no response) FILSS!
A burst of red electricity wandered around the room as a symbol began to form on the screen and a dark voice spoke.
The lights turned back on as F.I.L.S.S. then spoke.
F.I.L.S.S.: Systems and subroutines back online.
Director: (somewhat shaken) FILSS, what just happened?
F.I.L.S.S.: I am sorry, Director, but I cannot formulate a theory as to what occurred.
