open Mercenaries

[Twiliscael 3,960]

Z looked at the man who had almost caused his death twice. He wondered what he was after. And why he always seemed to capture HIM of all people. "What do you fucking want from me?" asked Z in a horse (C wat I did thar?) voice. "And why do you always capture me, not kill me?" he then turned to his side and saw all of the computer screens showing how close he was to death already. Major broken bones and several torn muscles and arteries and... ouch. He wondered how he was still alive. Maybe he shouldn't be pissing this guy off, he could kill him any instant.

"oh Z you ask to many question's. you should be grateful i saved your life, as for why you? well i would say we need more people like you, and maybe it's because i respect you to, but i will make a deal with you this is you last chance, join me and i will fit you with the necessary part's to keep you alive and running, or don't agree and live out the rest of your life as a useless paraplegic pony, your call, i will be back in ten minute's make your choice by then." simon walked out of the room to the control station he saw the attack was not as much as a failure after all, "this is simon to all troop's come back to base your mission is complete for now."

 

at the special opp's base the clone's suddenly stopped fighting loaded back in to there heli's and took off.

Z stared blanky at the door that Simon had walked out through. Ten minutes. He had ten minutes. But this wasn't about his personal wellbeing. It was about his priorities. He felt no obligation to the other mercenaries, they were just extra bullets to spray at the enemy. Nothing personal, he actually started liking then but all he cared about was the pay. Or was it? Seeing these abominations, these clones, made him realize that some things just might be too terrible to except or ask for pay.

 

Simon walked in and said "What's your choice, zebra?" Z then said with sudden flair "First off, before, you called me a pony. I am a fucking zebra. Address me as such." he coughed and continued "Second, why are tou doing this? Eith the clones. What do you have against my clients? Third, what's in it for me to join you. I could care less about my life anymore, I could care less if you killed me or left me paralyzed."

Delta got up, dazed, he couldn't remember anything that happened yesterday, He picked up his Shotgun and got in a Helicopter. It seemed like the UNSC Infinity had left, he turned on his Datapad, "The Clones have been repelled from the base, the rest of the mission is yours S-42." Delta looked at the map and plotted out the fastest way to Simons base, he went to the cockpit and sat in the pilots seat.

[jdor11 91]

"... why am i doing this you ask?... there are thing's in this world that no one should have to go through, seeing your own son die is one of them.

the clone's are just because, they are strong reliable and you never run out, once this is all done and thing's go my way they will be my watch dog's of the world keeping the peace, something the special opp's have not been doing.

 

as for what you'd get in return? a very... wealthy amount of money for every mission complete, plus a new weapon here or there if you do a very nice job

 

so Z what have you decided?" simon put his hand forward

[Twiliscael 3,960]

"I'll stay. I respect your determination, and I 'll help you out. At least for now. But I will NOT, repeat, I will NOT harm any civilians or my old comarades. Got it? Oh and for good measue, put some money in my account. I'd like that." Z then shut his eyes and began to.doze off to sleep.

[MrL0LZ 866]

Clone #550 overheard Simon and Z's chat, "Keepers of peace? The other force not being peaceful? I don't think you realize the true purpose of Delta Simon." Clone #550 thought to himself, He had finally remembered Delta's full past. It had scarred him, it was a shocking experience, he wondered how he wasn't insane by now.

[jdor11 91]

"i always make sure that civilan's aren't hurt, glad to hear your staying" simon seeing Z now asleep walked over to clone #550 "550 could you please prepare Z for the robotic augmentation's i've prepared for him? also please set up the defense's i do believe we have visitor's coming, make sure the sand bag's are set up and that all the M-1919's are set up for the clone's to use. also next time try not to make your listening in on our conversation so obvious."

[MrL0LZ 866]

"i always make sure that civilan's aren't hurt, glad to hear your staying" simon seeing Z now asleep walked over to clone #550 "550 could you please prepare Z for the robotic augmentation's i've prepared for him? also please set up the defense's i do believe we have visitor's coming, make sure the sand bag's are set up and that all the M-1919's are set up for the clone's to use. also next time try not to make your listening in on our conversation so obvious."

 

"I'll get the defenses ready and ready Z for the robotic augmentations."These defenses will go down with the very DNA that built them." Clone #550 thought to himself, with a small grin.

[jdor11 91]

he's up to something. thought simon to himself, "clone #111 assassin unit" clone #111 came over to simon "yes sir?"

keep an eye on clone #550 and report to me of any suspicious activity."

clone #111 "yes sir, right away!" with that clone #111 (a clone of simon's) went in to the darkness following slowly behind delta

[MrL0LZ 866]

"Greetings Clone #111, how are you doing? Your stealth techniques are inferior to Spartans, we have been trained for stuff like this 100 times over." Clone #550 said to Clone #111, walking casually down the hallway.

[jdor11 91]

"i see you know i'm here, but i will still be watching you from the shadow's" clone #111 said to clone #550

 

a few minute's after the operation simon walked in to the hospital room "so Z how do you feel?"

[Twiliscael 3,960]

"Like horse shit. Now lemme go to sleep, aight?" said Z in a pissed off voice. Truth was he wanted to get up and test out his new body but didn't want to talk to Simon right now. He had to think.

[jdor11 91]

simon went to the training track to see the practice dummy's for Z set up

"soon when he is ready we will se what real damage he can cause"

 

the clone's from the assault then came back

"clone #312 how was the mission?"

 

clone #312 "it went well all together we got 150 blood sample's and killed 50 of there men, we lost 160 clone's though"

 

"i see... well good mission, if you want you may set up a memorial for them, they diserve it."

[MrL0LZ 866]

Delta headed towards the base, ready to take on Simon, he also had to find out where Z went, as Z had disappeared after he woke up.

[jdor11 91]

simon walked outside looking at the memorial the clone's were having for all the clone's that died

"life come's and it goes, even with your friend's you will die." suddenly simon shed a tear and looked away

[null123456 759]

Splinter was running behind Delta. Panting. ''When can we take a break?'' Said Splinter as wiping the sweat from his head.

[jdor11 91]

simon looked around, only to see Z coming toward him, "ah Z up at at them is it? well come join the memorial, no man should have to die, and these clone's willingly gave themselves up."

[Twiliscael 3,960]

"No man should have to die?!?"I flared Z. "Yoy've caused many deaths. I have too, eho are we to talk about how no one should die?" asked Z , inspecting his Desert Eagle. "And how will I get my weapins back? I left most of them back at the base,"I asked Z

[jdor11 91]

"do not worry about your weapon's i have brought back your weapon's from the attack, you will find them in your room, as for me causing death... yes and no, i give all my clone's an option to fight for me or go free, most fight. true i ordered my men to attack the special opp's base but that was to stop them from doing something horrible." simon looked at Z with a look of sadness and fury, a combination that looked almost impossible, but then simon's face relaxed "i don't actually like fighting or death, but i won't stop until the world's murderer's are dead"

[MrL0LZ 866]

Delta approached the base, a set of M-1919's were set up with a couple clones garrison, luckily they hadn't noticed him, he landed the helicopter and took out his Sniper Rifle System 99 Anti-Matériel and got ready to take out the hostiles by the base.

simon heard everything seeing the merc's land on the base he simply walked up to delta hand's to his side's as if he wasn't even trying. "i would fight you right now if it weren't for the memorial we are having right now, if you would please, respect the fallen solider's ,no matter who it was that died, either leave, or come to the memorial to respect them, i should actually ask why you have come, when you should be respecting all your fallen solider's." simon looked at delta with a look of almost friendliness, holding out his hand to delta "your choice"

[null123456 759]

''Your remembering the Clones... Man, Bro.. That's really, REALLY Sad.'' Said Splinter as cocking an eyebrow and beginning to laugh.

Respect all these fallen soldiers? You do realize that almost all of them are me right? responded Delta, laughing. Edited June 8, 2012 by GLaMOS (AceCord)

"so? who say's one life is more or less important then your's or mine's? or the lowest poorest man on earth!? they all had free will, and each one was slightly different then the original, so even if it sound's weird! respect your self!" simon lowered his hand now looking at delta with a disgusted look
