(Cracks knuckles.)

Sauron waited for the Vanguard to leave the room, along with his protege. The Exo had made his mind up. The team had to know what Avgust was hiding. The Ranger knew that when he did this, the Vanguard would probably kill him, but it had to happen this way. Unless he was able to convince Scythe and the others, there was no way he could save anyone. Sauron activated his inbuilt commnet.

"Nevermore. what's Avgust doing right now?"



"Lock him out of the system. Lock out every Guardian except Scythe and that friend of his. I want you to do the same for every Ghost, including Scythe and the other one. Once you've tracked Avgust's location, lock the doors and dispatch Easy to the site. Tazers only."



"Good. Now activate the Illuminatus Protocol."



"Gotcha. Code follows: I want to believe."



"Doesn't matter. Run the tapes. All of them."

Suddenly, on the HUD of every Guardian on the Ketch, Sauron's face appeared.

"Hello, everyone. I'm sure you've noticed my... extreme behavior recently. Here's the reason why: we have been betrayed by none other then our "most valiant commander." That's right. Avgust. In fact, I have the files right here. They'll be on your HUD right about... now."

A long series of data packets, mission data, and most incriminatingly, an order manifest, appeared onscreen.

"See that there? That's a mission manifest, headed for an "unknown" buyer. I tracked and stopped the files accompanying the manifest when I broke into Avgust's ship. Turns out it's a complete record of our mission plans, including an addendum about an "interception point." He was planning a trap for us, as evidence shows, but luckily the paln didn't go through. Thusly, I'll let you decide what to do with him now. Good-bye."

The video feed shut off as Sauron was released from the medical table.
