"I'm afraid I don't know who that is. Although I'm sure they wouldn't mind if one person knew..."

He shrugged. "You can call me Spartan if you want. Or One."
-
"Well nice to meet you, Spartan, I'm Cornelia Mara." [b]She put out a hand to shake.[/b]
-
He reached up and shook it. His grip was firm and he was obviously holding back a lot of strength. "Pleasure to meet you as well, Cornelia."
-
"Now then, you said you were just a visitor, where from? Or is that classified too?" [b]She obviously wasn't letting the joke die for now.[/b]
-
"I'm from a planet called Reach. I guess you could say I'm visiting. I was sent along with the marines guarding a fire base near the mountains here." He replied. "How about you?"
-
"As you can probably tell from how I talk, I'm originally from Italia. Then, my organization I work for now pulled me here to Tatakai."
-
"And what might that organization be? The assassins?" He joked.
-
"Not quite. We are a part of private military called Viperfish." [b]She held some time of reverence for the name.[/b]
-
"Interesting name." He took another sip fron his coffee. "You'll have to forgive me if I haven't heard of it."
-
"Well I wouldn't expect many people to know us, we usually don't operate above ground."
-
"Interesting. You paramilitary, or contractors?"
-
"Mostly paramilitary, although we like to take jobs here and there if it suites us."
-
"And you have a strong presence here?" The Spartan asked, finishing his coffee.
-
"Strong enough, although I wouldn't expect you to find us often. We blend in well." [b]She also finished her tea, putting down the cup. [/b]
-
"You'd be surprised. ONI is good at finding stuff." He replied, a slight smile on his face.
-
"Then best of luck finding my colleagues. Tatakai isn't small." [b]She smiled back, amused.[/b]
-
"Neither is the Office of Naval Intelligence." He replied.
-
"Well so far, you have found one, and how long have you around here?" [b]She said challengingly. [/b]
-
"About twenty-four hours" Her challenge sparked something in him, she could see it in his eyes. He was answering her challenge with his own.
-
"Let this one be free since I told you outright. But good luck finding anyone else." [b]She started to get up.[/b]
-
"Well, I didn't say I was looking. Unless you plan on threatening the UNSC I have no reason to." He remained seated.
-
[b]She started to walk away and looked back at him.[/b] "Good, then lets hope we don't get in each other's ways."
-
He nodded, still not moving to stand. "Thanks for the conversation. Interesting people a a rarity these days."
-
"Well perhaps we will talk another time..." [b]She then walked away completely.[/b]
-
The Spartan watched her go before ordering another cup of coffee. [spoiler]end?[/spoiler]
