"Damn! How did that break!"
I inspect the cable closer for signs of tampering, then I check the air brakes as well.
AWA test 1,10 vs 7
"What? There is a foot or so missing? Hmm, I'll worry about this later." I pull out my mechanics tool box and cut 6 inches of cable on both side of the break and stuff them into my pack for analysis when we get back. "Now, the airbrakes. If some one wanted to kill this guy, I'm going to be pissed."
AWA test 5, 13 vs 7
Here we go, a small peice but a piece none the least. Hmm, I can't decide if it's been messed with. I'll keep it just to be sure.
EDU 10 vs 6

The COMM channel crackles as Bones starts medical treatment. Its Shifty."Sir, permission to go on ahead, alone, and scout the area for enemy contact and our objectives."

Bones injects biofoam through the abdominal port of the Lieutenant's suit, then looks up at Shifty while rifling through his medical kit.
"If you'll give me another thirty seconds, I'll have our dear leader on his feet to field that for you."
Ah! Here we are - Polytransuralmetrozine: Draw 2CCs into a syringe. Inject via bodysuit neck port. Serves one shock victim.
He injects the concoction into the Lieutenant's neck - assuming those years spent in medical school weren't all for naught, he should be getting up in about 5 seconds. He then reaches for the syringe containing the painkillers, but decides against it. We need our CO with a clear head.

The Lieutenant begins to rouse. He stares vacantly for a second then Takes off his helmet."My suit's diagnostics are not good. My HUD seems to be working but my COMM system is dead. My suit's power is down to 50%. I- Why the hell does my arm ache?"
With suit power down to 50%, all effects the suit has are half normal.

"Got any one who wants to kill you? If not we need to get moving cause you just got shot down."

"You've got a hairline fracture of left ulna - It's relatively minor, but I'd advise against using that arm in any sort of heavy physical activity for the time being. Likely to happen, I know.
Other than that, nothing major to be concerned about - You had some minor internal bleeding in your abdomen, but I've got some biofoam working on that as we speak. All told, you're in wonderful shape for a man who took a 30 meter uncontrolled descent. As for the suit, I'm afraid that's outside my area of expertise."
He extends a hand to the lieutenant to help him up.

The Lieutenant grabs his hand and gets up."May I have one of your pistols in exchange for a shotgun? I suppose I can't use this thing now-"Shifty breaks in"Sir, request permission to scout the terrain ahead, locate enemy positions, and scout our targets."The Lieutenant seems startled at first. Then finally said"I suppose thats your job. Go ahead and report back with any intel as soon as you get it. Keep contact to emergencies only."Shifty nods and runs into the forest, seemingly melting into the trees."Bones, give me a sit rap."

"Hmm. Dragoon takes his pistol and holster off and replaces it with the SMG. "Here."

"Thanks."He grabs the pistol and ammo for it and holsters it.

"I've got Tiny and Tech watching the perimeter - so far no contact with hostile forces. It's been... eh, a minute tops since we touched down, so you haven't missed much. We're all in good shape, so as soon as you're ready we can move out."

"I got possible tampering with your HEV but I've taken samples to analyze when we get back."

"Alright, lets move out immediately. While we are marching I can finally tell you a secondary objective to this mission."He replaces his helmet and turns on the external speakers."Oh and question, will we see Shifty again?"

"Well... I think it's likely he'll be seeing US. As to whether we'll be seeing him... probably not for a while, Lieutenant. He's got what it takes to stay alive on his own, if that's what you're asking, sir. I wouldn't worry too much about it."
And, of course, another shoe is waiting in the wings to fall. I wonder what it will be THIS time.[/b]

"Heh, you can read my mind sometimes Bones."He begins to walk through the forest."But anyway I'm sure you guys are wondering why a Lieutenant was placed in as your squad commander, especially an ONI 'spook' as you might say. Well I have my own mission from the ONI top brass that was not to be mentioned until we got onto the planet. I was sent here to organize a secondary objective, one that ONI needs done. I'm here to observe Covenant tactics, interaction, and military structure. We must know our enemy to defeat them."
