Eagle Down

"Fox Actual, this is Eagle 1. That's all we've got, we're RTB to rearm. We'll be back shortly. Stay safe-."

"Lexi!! They came out of no where, Lexi I can't -" Eagle 2 comms go silent, as they plummet to the earth.

"Spartan Base, Eagle 2 is down, I say again Eagle 2 is down." Lexi pushes the throttle to the limits, 2 more Covenant aircraft swoop in behind her.

"Spartan Base, I'm hit. Engine 1 and 2 have failed and 3 is failing. I'm going down."
