Liz looked up from where she had been working on Sarah's car. The engine was out, the NOS installed, along with a few better parts for now, so that she wouldn't have to replace them later. She started working on putting the engine back in, it was going to be pretty hard to do, it would take up some of the day, luckily she was already done with everything else. She had arranged for for the U.S.S New York to rendevous with them, the New York was also en route to Ursa Major, they just had to hitchhike a ride with it; she had loaded everything into and onto the Pelican; she had made contact with some of the Marines going to get on the New York and asked if their commander would allow them to help the Spartans and that lone Marine fight back against the Covenant, and their commander, Lord Hood, he had called himself, agreed that it would be a great battle experience for the Marines to watch Spartans in action. Their names and rank are: Thomas Anderson, PFC ( Private First Class); John "Sonny" Kendrick, CPL ( Corporal); Therisa "Tessy" Franklin, Sgt. ( Sergeant); and Jack "Ace of Spades" Kenderson, MGySgt ( Master Gunnery Sergeant).

Sarah yawned and leaned against the wall, wondering what to do next. She knew Liz wouldn't be done with the engine for a while, but wanted to do something else to help. She looked around, thinking rapidly. Her eyes locked on the computer, and she figured she could get her A.I. while she was waiting. She honestly had no idea what it was, but Liz had mentioned it, so she figured it was something important.

Liz was still working on the engine, putting it back in, when the phone in the garage rang. She looked over at it, looked around, and, seeing that no one was around, walked over to the phone and answered it. "Hello, this is Lord Hood, is Elizabeth there?" "Yes, this her speaking, may I ask why?" She replied. "Yes, the New York is positioned above the city, are you ready to go?" "What, already?! Running a bit to quickly there, Lord Hood. We'll be up as soon as possible." She hung up the phone, then announced on the intercom, "People, get packing now! The New York is above the city, and they will help us get to Ursa Major as soon as possible. Load everything that hasn't been loaded into the Pelican and get ready to leave now!!!" She cut off the intercom, ran to the Pelican, and started it up. The Pelican's ion thrusters immediatly lifted it off a full foot from the ground. She then imput the command to open the top doors of the garage. She turned on the intercom again, saying, "Get a move on! They won't be waiting long!"

Sarah quickly stopped her search through the different A.I.s and ran to the steps that led to the first and then second floors. After getting to the second, she ran to the eighth room. Unlocking it, she ran in and got her armour and weapons out. She then ran back to the Pelican and loaded her things on before collapsing against the wall to get her breath back for a moment.

"Okay, and we are off." Elizabeth declared as the Pelican's engines roared and shot off. "Hey, I see Shinta." Liz said. She landed the Pelican near him and waited for him to get in. "Closing the back door." She said after he got in. She closed the garage and the Pelican's door.
(This first battle will not be on any mission topic, or anything, it will be on this topic)

(Beat you to it) *Shinta raises one of his nine-milliimeters, loads a clip, and cocks the gun* "Lets do this." He said silently

*Several miles above the Earth's surface, the Pelican docks in one of the New York's hangars. There are four people waiting outside the Pelican while the back opens up*
Elizabeth walked out of the Pelican first, followed by the others shortly afterwards. "Team, I would like to introduce to you the newest members of our team, Private First Class, Thomas Anderson; Corporal, John Kendrick; Sergeant, Therisa Franklin; and, finally, Master Gunnery Sergeant, Jack Kenderson." Liz announced, each person stepping up when called upon.

"Dismissed. Until we reach Ursa Major, which will be in a few hours, You can all do whatever you want, as long as you won't regret it later. Got it?" Elizabeth said, almost jokingly.

Sarah groaned good-naturedly.
"What, no beer?" she asked jokingly, knowing the effects of too much all too well.

"Sure, if you can hold it in." Liz replied, after saying that, she and Sarah stared at each other for a second, then burst out laughing.

"Sorry, that's beyond my abilities," Sarah said, wipping the tears from her eyes that came from laughing so much. She snickered a few more times before finally calming down.
