OOC: I'm kind of just a Spartan Recruit at the moment, not a General. Also, Slug said earlier in the storyline that he has the artifact, which is a Covenant AI. However, our in-game characters technically don't know that yet. Edit your posts accordingly.
223 turned around at Amda. "So, you're the famous Amda of General Droa's personal crew eh?" He pulled out the dead Zealot's sword and turned it on. Two twin beams of energy erupted from the blade and 223 swung at the near invisible ELite and yelled, "Go find my crew and blow this ship up 024. I've got Amda." As 024 ran deeper into the Destroyer, 223 missed Amda and left himself wide open. Amda pulled out her own energy dagger and stabbed 223 in the lower back. 223 screamed in pain and slashed blindly with the energy sword. Amda jumped out of the way and stabbed 223 again in the stomach. 223 fell to his knees and pulled out a frag grenade from his belt. He pulled the clip and held it for a few seconds, before throwing it at Amda's face. It exploded on impact, leaving a huge cloud of smoke behind. As the smoke cleared, Ada rushed 223, energy shields flaring. 223 jumped back up and dodged the attack. Amda's momentum forced her to slam into the hallway's wall. 223 ran his energy sword through Amda's spine, seriously injuring her and temporarily paralyzing her, but not killing her. 223 scavanged her energy dagger, which was a rare weapon for UNSC personnel. "To the victor goes the spoils....." 223 whispered in Amda's ear. 223 rushed deeper into the Destroyer, trying desperately to find the ship's core......
