A Halo Aftermath Short Story

Selonia March 3rd 2556.

"And today the Selonian Government is deciding whether they should join the Capitalist UNSC the Socialist United Planetary Union, or form their own Government."

The Prime Minister looked out over his estate. He heard the two sides of Protesters yelling at him. Trying to change his mind.

"No More Lies! We Want UPU!" One banner screamed at him.

"One Nation By the People for the People! We want UNSC!" another one told him.

"Sir?" A lackey broke into the Prime Minister's thoughts. "Sir. We need a decision." "I know." The Prime Minister replied simply."What is your name?" "Jared Smith sir." "Well Jared" the Prime Minister sighed. "Today will shape history. This could swing the tables in this war. This could spark another offensive. By either side." The Prime Minister began heading for the door."Jared I would appreciate it very much if you would listen to an old man's ramblings."
