It’s going to give a civvie a heart attack.”[/b] One of the guards scolded. The Corporal was the closest to the HQ Guardsmen, and he tilted his head in confusion. Who in the armed forces [i]didn't [/i]know about the Hunters? Tasuma itself was silent, and slowly moved its head to face the frantic guard. Before the Sergeant could knock the guard down a peg, the Grunt stepped up to do it instead. Meanwhile, behind the Hunter, the three ODST privates saw the Spartans disembarking their transports and walking towards them. They tapped each other with their elbows and pointed at them. One of the Privates gave a friendly wave. Usually Spartans and ODSTs had a fairly tense relationship, but these troopers accompanying the Hunter didn't seem to mind the genetically enhanced super-soldiers. Grik, as the group learned from his rebuttal, even pointed at a Spartan and declared that he wasn't afraid of them. The ODST Sergeant laughed loudly and slapped Grik across the shoulder. [b]"Ha! Grik? I like you!"[/b] The Sergeant proclaimed with equal volume. The Corporal leaned over to the Sergeant, [b]"If scaring civvies is a concern why don't we do that thing we did on Sonov III? With the... well without the guns... yeah you know. Cuz' when you think about it, it's pretty absurd."[/b] The Sergeant put his hand on the chin of his helmet, thinking for a second. [b]"That's a good idea."[/b] The Sergeant grinned, [b]"Tas'?"[/b] The Hunter finally spoke, of a sorts. It was more like a short thrum. Tasuma leaned forward, placing both of his fists on the ground, his spikes rising from his back slightly more. The right forward most spike rose to be completely vertical. The Sergeant grabbed its cape and draped it over one of Tasuma's spikes, to ensure it didn't drag on the ground, then he climbed up Tasuma's arm and sat on the Hunters back, using the single vertical spike as a pole to grab onto. The Sergeant turned to the guard, [b]"You ever see an ODST get a piggyback ride from a Hunter?"[/b] He said smugly, the trooper turned to Grik, [b]"You wanna ride too? Tas' here once carried five of our sorry asses on his back, so I know he could carry you too."[/b] The Sergeant looked back at the Spartans, everyone could practically hear his shit-eating grin, [b]"Sorry Spartans, your squad ain't official yet and Battlebus Tas' is invitation only!"[/b] Tasuma thrummed again in agreement, moving an arm closer to Grik.
