Reclaimer – A Halo 3 Comic

Bold slightly slumped before the Reclaimer.

BOLD

Hehehe...

BOLD

{gasp}

Bold looking a little weak in the knees.

BOLD

Is that the best you can do...

{wheeze}

BOLD

...Reclaimer? Or did you forget that a little thing like a shotgun at point-blank range isn't even enough to dent Viper armor?

The Reclaimer running out of the shielded room.

CAVALCADE

He has a point, Reclaimer.

RECLAIMER

Of course he does.

The Reclaimer now running back out into the larger room.

CAVALCADE

Well, then? Why DID you use a weapon on him if you knew that it would not work?

RECLAIMER

Portent, ask Tran if she got any readings from Bold's armor from that encounter.

INTUITIVE PORTENT

She did, Reclaimer. She could ascertain no obvious weaknesses.

RECLAIMER

Ok, how about not-so-obvious weaknesses?

INTUITIVE PORTENT

Only if you are able to explode the molecular makeup of matter into particles less than a micron in size each and then re-organize it on the other side of Bold's energy shield where it could actually do some damage.

RECLAIMER

Of course! Why didn't I think of that? It's so damn simple even a child should be able to do it.

RECLAIMER

Does Tran have any ideas for any OTHER miracles she'd like me to perform while I'm at it?

CAVALCADE

No--

Bold, standing just on the outside of the energy barrier, firing a battle rifle at the Reclaimer.

BOLD

But I do. How about the miracle of your death, Reclaimer? It's long overdue.

CAVALCADE

Reclaimer, need we remind you that your shields--

RECLAIMER

I know. Shut up.

RECLAIMER

I'm a little busy at the moment.
