No one but another II would have known that phrase surely. Why another II was on this strange alien ship was beyond Kurt however. He hadn't seen another II in nearly twenty years though so he found himself at a bit of a loss about what to do. Thankfully, years of military training took over and the other Spartan disengaged the active camo of his SPI armor and stepped around the edge of the crate.

When he turned the polarization of his visor completely off, the face behind the mask was one John hadn't seen in two decades. Kurt was older but those hazel green eyes were the same and it was unmistakably a Spartan who had been marked as MIA for twenty years.

"Who are you?" Unlike the last time he'd seen a fellow II, there was no helpful Spartan tags marked on the Chief's armor to tell him who he was dealing with.
