We Will Never Die: Rebooted (A Halo Spartan Quest)

Beacon 5: Training, and the Augmentation

-[X]Sigma

"Sigma… My name is Sigma." Your AI said quietly.

"Thank you, for giving me a name that is mine."

Reward: Sigma gain's his designation.

-[X]Robotics: "Do not rely on this machine to win your battles." Rolled:1D100 => 2+30=32

"After Sigma's… problems, we'd rather you not try and build anything else?" Mendez said as he carried away your robotics projects.

Dammit!

Failure.

-[X]Information Warfare: You want to learn how to use computers to destroy the enemy Rolled:1D100 => 1+30=31

"Sigma...Why did you lock in my room?"

"Because you were giving up classified information… And I don't want you to get in trouble." He replied.

"Than explain why there is a squad of marines outside guarding my room?"

"Sargent Lopez insisted so you wouldn't cause another security breach."

Failure.

-[X]Spycraft: You want to be a Spy. Rolled:1D100 => 11+30=41

"Are you just inept at being subtle?" Light asked.

"I have no idea what you are talking about?" You replied with a grin.

"Yeah… He is." Sigma replied.

Failure.

-[X]Spend time with Purple Team: So... It all started with an idea… to build a big fucking gun. Rolled:1D100 => 91

The design plan was… well without question ambitious. Very ambitious

The entire thing was a laser based weapon… something that had never been done.

"You want to create a weapon that has never been even remotely designed before?" You asked as Caleb nodded, giving a smile and a thumbs up.

"Yep." Daisy replied.

Ralph then sighed. "Really, I thought to just make something to screw with Mendez… Than Caleb said we have the ability to really make it real and I said fuck it, lets do it."

That was promising. And terrifying. Ralph was not what you would call an amazing assistant. Nor Daisey for that matter, she always stole something valuable, and important in your work.

"Laser though?" you replied. You do know that isn't possible. "We don't have the technology for that kind of system… The things needed are astronomically expensive."

That was when Daisy smiled. "Should I tell him about the shipment?" She turned to your teammates who just nodded.

Oh… she stole them. "Where did you steal them from?" You asked.

"Nowhere important." She replied.

Okay… Very well then… you weren't going to ask anymore, and just accept that somehow, they stole some of the most expensive materials in all of the UNSC.

"And the powercore?" You asked. "How are we going to power it?"

Ralph scratched the back of his head. "Miniaturized fusion reactor, and crystal focus. Should get a few shots off before the power runs dry."

Okay something you could work with. "Weight? Or at least attempted weight?" You asked.

"Twenty Kilo's" Daisy replied.

"So a two man weapon system?" You asked.

"No… a one man weapon system." Caleb replied.

"Impossible." You replied.

Caleb shook his head. "Not for you… Besides. We'll be helping out… Maybe you can cut the weight down?"

It took a few months… but you came up with… well…

You called it the Spartan Laser. Afters the Spartans who built it.

Reward: You have created the Spartan Laser

-[X]Spend Time with another Team: You want to spend time with your other spartans. They are your family now.
--[X]Blue Team Rolled:1D100 => 32

John and Blue Team were busy… mostly with Kelly's new… Speed problem she was having.

"She's getting faster?" You asked.

"Yes." John said. "Don't tell the Doctor."

Failure?

-[X]A Silent Night: You and your AI are going to talk. About… you. Rolled:1D100 => 72

"How long have you had another personality in your mind?" Sigma asked.

That caught you off guard. "Excuse me?"

"You talk to yourself more frequently than the other spartans, and in such a way that it is conversational in nature… Do you have a split personality?"

"No." you replied.

"Than what do you call it?" He asked.

"Excuse me?"

"If it's not a split personality… what is it?" He asked. "What delusion do you call it than."

You scoffed. "I'm not crazy… or psychologically damaged."

"Then what really is happening in your mind?"

"I think we should tell him." Light stated as you saw him sitting next to Sigma. "Stop you from having any more trouble."

"That isn't the point." You replied. "They might kill you. I won't let that happen." You then realized your mistake. Or rather, what Light was doing.

Sigma narrowed his eyes. "So… it is another personality."

"The Truth." Light replied. "That will set you free."

So you told Sigma what light really was…

He was you, reincarnated… while lingering in your own mind. With only one objective.

Keeping you safe.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[X]A Psych Evaluation: John has reported you shouting at yourself… thinking you have some underlying medical or psychological trauma… Doctors orders… at the least the Doctor is the one who's examining you. (Note: You must take this action this turn or suffer consequences) Rolled:1D100 => 58

Dr. Halsey read the report from Sigma. She was shocked… confused… even a bit… envious?

"If it were any other person Gian… I would call them liars, and see that they were thrown into the brig." She started as she set the file down. "But you're not normal. Are you?"

"Doctor, you should have known that when i met you." You replied. "Are you really that surprised?"

"No… In fact, it all makes sense." She stated. "Breaking so many breakthroughs… it wasn't just because of your genius… you've done this before."

"Yes." You replied. "In some respects… but I'm also me."

"And I you." Light replied. "She's really not getting the whole reincarnation thing… but I'm glad she hasn't locked you up into the loony bin yet."

"Is there anything else?" You asked.

The Doctor nodded. "No. Nothing else."

Reward:

You are deemed sane and stable.

Dr. Halsey now knows you are a reincarnation. She is… processing that event.

The Beacon had room for a few major Upgrade before the Hopeful met for the Augmentations.

What upgrades do you want:
(Choose 2)

[]Targeting System: You are going to invent the best targeting system the UNSC has ever seen. Your enemies certainly won't understand such power until they see it.
[]FTL communications: You have an idea to send the Comms buoys through slipspace.
[]Colony Ship Actuator: Well… this is a former colony staton... that could possibly save all of humanity… might as well plan ahead for such an eventuality.
[]Mobile Base Platforms" You know the Spirit of Fire has these mobile base systems for forward operating posts… why not give it a try.
[]Experimental AI platforms: Sigma should be able to shitpost to earth from this ship… that is a promise.
[]Augmentations Facilities: Why have only one ship be a place to create more spartans… why not attempt to make it here as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Something went wrong during the Augmentations... You called it bizarre.

What happened:

[]You became invisible. You didn't expect that… at all. In fact, you were pretty sure augmentations didn't have mimetic skin gene?

[]You began seeing people not as people… but as outlines… of blue, gold… and red. Peculiar.

[]You were pretty sure you were vibrating so quickly, that your heart couldn't be detected by the machines connected to you.

[]You saw Light… standing over you… and you felt his hand on your skin… "Psionic projection?" He hypothesized. "Groovy."

[]You felt like nothing could stop you… and than you picked up over three tons… with your bare hands.

[]Nothing… Nothing felt right. You just felt like you… nothing felt different. And than you saw the mirror, and the red eyes. "Side effect… eye discoloration?" You stated. Where were you anyway? This wasn't the Hopeful?

AN: Enjoy and please vote in Plan format!
