We are legion. We're the 2nd best soldiers ever made, second only to the Spartans. Here we all have a checkered past. We are all running from something or looking for a new start, but I'm getting ahead of myself. This is the legionnaire program. It was founded by both the UNSC and New covenant after the human-covenant war. The idea behind this was to provide expert yet expendable soldiers. Taking a page from the 21st century French foreign legion, the 2 nations formed a program that got rid of the traitors, rejects, and sociopaths, and at the same time supply candidates for the program. They were needed because no sooner than had the UNSC and New covenant formed good relations, had the insurrectionist come back in full force…with new covenant races amongst their ranks.
The New covenant and UNSC after returning to full strength invested all their power into quelling the rebels and traitors. However after a major engagement on the planet Fi'rios, an outdated UNSC signal was picked up. They found the other half of forward unto dawn. It was heading into uncharted territory.
The best and perhaps most odd of the legionnaire squads, was sent to recover the residence of the ship. What no one expected was to enter a system abundant with life…and in the middle of a war.

Given the squad make-up one would expect horrible performance. In all actuality they've been the most deadly squad with a kill ratio equal to that of a veteran Spartan 2. It's because of this they've been chosen to retrieve the legendary solider. Now however they will fight an enemy unlike any they have ever witnessed. This is their story.
