User:SPARTAN Rogue 177/Halo: ODST Broken

"Then-at that moment her heart-her light was awakened everything that she had known, the light-all of it was brought back, and it gave her the voice she'd lost in the dark silence of void. The girl became what she had once been once more... a light in the broken darkness."

Prologue-Broken Life-Shattered Heart:
The eleven year-old stood there, watching as the ODSTs slowly took the flag off the casket, then folded it. The ODSTs walked over, then handed the flag to her grandmother. It was lethally silent, it use to scare her, but no longer... she felt shattered. Everything she knew. 'It took God Seven days to create the universe... and her's had been shattered in seven seconds.' Murders... The girl silently watched, numb of all feelings several snapped to, turned, then fired their weapons. The girl shuddered. The ODST captain looked at her, then ever so slightly nodded. The girl didn't budge, but simply stared on, as they slowly lowered her mother's casket into the torpedo.

The girl stared into the void her mother had been fired into. The ODST captain walked to her side.

“Your mother was a brave woman,” he said.

The girl didn't reply.

“You know that don't you?” he asked.

The girl breathed.

“I know this is hard for you, your father was KIA, and you feel alone.”

The girl nodded.

“If you're planning on following them, you have my support, you'll make a great soldier someday,” he told her, then put a hand on her shoulder.

The girl only continued to stare.
