Upon reaching the room, Alei took off her helmet and some of the heavier parts of her armour, relaxing on her bed afterwards. She smiled at Vaht as he walked into the room, shutting her eyes afterwards. She eventually drifted off to sleep, having nothing else to do.

Rah'mun stepped off the ship, looking for a map. He found one and checked it, to make sure he new which way to go. He had looked at the Supercarrier's blueprints while he was on the way, and so had a vague idea of where to go. He moved along the ship, towards the Sleeping halls where he would take residence. He eventually found the halls and starting looking through for his assigned room.
He found the room his squad was supposed to be using. He again stopped a moment, trying to imagine the individuals inside. With a shrug he told himself, "I guess i'm about to find out...." He knocked on the door, then swung it open...

Vaht was sitting on his bed, and was alarmed by the knock, not many people knocked, but he saw that it was his newest squadmate.
"Ah, you are the new one? I'm Zealot Vaht, that's Zealot Guvai, our Field Marshal, Zealot Alei is sleeping. Take a bed, and rest your eyes, if needed."
Vaht did the same, and fell asleep.

Alei awoke to the sound of a knock, followed by some chatter. She was too tired to understand it, but she could tell it was something to do with a new recruit. She didn't care enough to wake herself up fully, so she decided to fall back asleep.

Rah'mun was a little surprised by how young the Zealot in front of him was. He had expected some kind of war-hardened veteran from the days of the Covenant. But no, this Sangheili was probably around his age. Regardless, he thanked Vaht, the Zealot, and looked for a bed to put his equipment on. He took his weapons and was off to look around the ship some more, maybe find a nice quiet place to train.
After finding a suitable Training area, Rah checked his weapons to make sure they were in a worthy condition, then began to practice. He wasn't tired anyway, and he understood formal introductions could wait until morning. He sighed then drew his sword. He loved the weapon, it was simple, yet complex. Elegant and easy to use, it was the very pinnacle of close quarters combat. He sighed once more, then continued with his training.

Vaht got up, and stood next to Alei's bed. He lowered his hand, and shook her from the shoulders.
"Alei, our new comrade is here. You may wish to greet him."

Alei awoke, initially startled but quickly calmed.
"Thank you, Zealot Vaht. I will greet him once he returns."
She slipped on her armour once more, awaiting Rah's return.

Rah'mun disengaged his blade and put his Repeater back into its holster. He began to walk back to his quarters, thinking to himself. What was this mission he was on? Why was it so important that they would need multiple Zealots working together? So many questions, so few answers. He did not like this, the secrets, the lack of information. It felt dishonourable, and honour was everything to Sangheili.
He sighed for what must of been the tenth time that morning. There was no point getting bothered about it, he thought to himself, as he opened the door to his room.

The captain of the ship stood at the Bridge, looking out into the expanse, or what would be the endless expanse, if a Shield World was not blocking the display. He stood at the intercom, and pressed the button, and spoke into it.
"Zealot Teams One to Twenty-Five, report to the briefing room immediately."
The Captain headed straight to the briefing room, and sat at the head of the table.
Vaht perked up at this, and almost ran to the briefing room.

Alei followed Vaht out the door, heading towards the briefing room. She was somewhat excited, but still tired. She couldn't help but wonder about this new mission, and what it could hold.

Rah heard the announcement, it had said to go to the Briefing Room. He disengaged his blade, grabbed his Repeater and stepped out of the Training area. He looked around for a minute, looking for a map. He found one and, after checking which direction the Briefing Room was in, began to walk.
After reaching the room, he looked around for his unit. He found them standing nearby. "I am sorry i am late, i have not yet gotten used to a ship so vast." He bowed his head then moved to stand beside them.

The captain waited patiently for all Zealot teams to arrive, and he finally stood up, silencing all chatter.
"Some of you are wondering why we are out in this expanse. It is true, we are searching. What for, I hear? Some of you have noticed the dozens of Zealot teams we have aboard this grand ship. The purpose of a Zealot is the retrieval of Forerunner artefacts. We have found a Shield World. And you are the advance recon team. Boots on ground in two hours."
Vaht's eyes widened, but left the room before he could ask questions. He left, back to his bed, and sat there, looking at his helmet.

Alei returned to her room with Vaht, sharing his reaction. She leaned against the wall. She'd never think they'd run into a shield world, maybe something special but never anything like this. She grabbed her weapons, heading for the training area, hoping to squeeze some practice in before deploying.

Rah'muns bottom mandibles clicked in annoyance. Two hours until deployment? He could be ready in two minutes. He was surprisingly infuriated by this, and strode as fast as he could to the Training area. He needed to calm down, and nothing did that better than cutting a target to pieces with an Energy Sword.
Five minutes later he was doing exactly that. How the exercise vented his anger, he had no idea, but he knew it worked. He soon calmed down. He took a deep breath and relaxed then viewed his surroundings. He saw that female Zealot Alei and a few other Sangheili training, he also noticed a few of the Sangheili had moved away from his area.
He disengaged his Sword then holstered it. Now he had to play the waiting game...

Vaht, for the majority of the two hours, looked at his helmet. He always did it before a major deployment, which this one would be. He started to walk to the hangar, and when arriving, checked his armor, and then his weapons. When the alarm sounded, he got into the Phantom, and braced for entry.
