John went through the portal at the top of the structure and ran to a panel with a cylinder in the center. He put Alastor down as he turned to pull the cylinder out as much as he could, turn it to the right 180°, and push it back in. The shield surrounding the large, black sphere flared as it weakened. Nodding he turned to pick Alastor back up to find that the Spartan was kneeling as his armor repaired itself. Burying his surprise, he checked his assault rifle's ammo.<br/><br/>"You good?" He asked the fellow Spartan as he saw him stand up holding his chest with his M7KR smg armed.<br/><br/>"Green, more or less." Alastor replied with a shrug of his left shoulder, since his right had taken the brunt of the Knight's blow.
