The Spartan radioed for armored transport out of the area and a few minutes later, a Police-Style Pelican landed just outside the door. The Spartan quickly herded the women into the Pelican and took off silently into the night. The Lion's dead body was left in the buidling as a wonderful little message to Pablo.

Pablo heard news of the Lion's death and was overcome with grief. He and Lion had been childhood friends, and his death marked the beginning of a true war. For this, there would be hell to pay.

The only hell coming was the one the Spartan planned on unleashing, should he get the chance. *dramatic music*
