The human colonies were in mass panic. A huge Forerunner ship had passed through Neutral Space near UNSC Colonies. Civilians had seen it. The ship was slowly drifting into UNSC territory. On board the ship, a Monitor was at the helm. It called itself Monitor 337. 337 and a Sentinel were attempting to sneak into occupied territory. Human contacts with the ship were ignored.
==========
"Ignore them, Sentinel." I said. "Keep the ship moving until we come into contact with that Frigate." The UNSC ship readied its weapons as we moved into position. Our Dreadnought attempted to slipspace through. We stopped in the middle of an asteroid belt. "Sentinel, turn off all vital systems. Do we have cloaking?" "No, 337. It was broken." "What? How?" The Sentinel sighed. "Listen, we have UNSC near us, 337. We should keep low and they might pass us. Just a patrol of Longswords."
"Do you think they followed us? We were near the Frigate long enough to be reported." The Sentinel turned on the ships' weapons systems. "Hold on, 337. This could get dangerous. They have a Cruiser. Readying its' main cannons." Torpedoes hit the Dreadnought and alarms sounded. "Can you teleport a boarding party onto that ship to keep them busy while I activate the engines, 337?" "No, Sentinel. I'm activating the weapons system." "Fuck that!" I said. "Slipspace drive, now!"
