"I believe there is another race, the race we mistook for you. The relics state that a race consuming everything in its path in a relentless conquest of the galaxy would be our rivals. Your colinization of planets, and the pollution of them led us in the wrong direction. I cant give you the real thing, not enough time. Thats a brief run down. We need in there. Any ideas?"
The spartan stepped past the elite and knocked on the glass with her fist. "I doubt will get through there without and high powered explosives." She scanned the wall, looking for someting;anything when suddenly she spotted a small metalic box near what looked like a door. She stepped up to it and examined it closely. "It's a computerized lock... Someone really doesn't want us getting in there... Are you sure we want this opened?"
He stepped up to the lock, stared at it for a few seconds. He tapped some buttons. Nothing. Tried it again. Nothing. Again, there was a beep and it opened. "Those buttons had the most wear. That doors been opened already, whatever is in there can open it from the inside. The moment this door was first opened it was opened permanently. Come on, lets go." He walked into the middle of the room. Dead elites were scattered all over the floor. Blood and gore covered the majority of the floor and walls. "Nooooooo...." He cried softy.
"Ten, the pelicans have launched." Ten walked to the pilot.
"Details."
"Uh...uh...NO! Seraph fighters incoming. Wait! A longsword has launched. Who the-?"
"Zero! Zero abort now, get out of there, there are three of them, your dead....Zero...ZERO. ABORT NOW. PULL OFF."
The longsword shredded one fighter, the other two scrambled to blast him into free atoms. He barrel rolled and came up behind one, triggering the slugs he sent them up its engines turning into a brilliant ball of blue fire. Just then plasma scored his right wing blowing it off.
"Zero, pull out."
The seraph kept going straight...towards a pelican. The longsword sluggishly turned, but the plasma had melted the gun emplacements.
"Your dry zero, pull."
The fighter engaged afterburners, heading to intercept the seraph.
"ZERO! NO! THATS AN ORDER! ZERO! ZERO! DONT DO IT! ZERO!"
The two fighters collided. He turned away. "pelicans, full boar. Get down to the...ring. What ever it is." Someone called on the comm "Pilot? This is long range comm, your not equipped for them. Send me a tight band containing your location. Well land near your position. Reply."
The spartan followed silently in the elite wake, looking at the slaughted covenant on the floor. Something wasn't right here... She felt a sense of fear deep within her. This was very unusual for a spartan. When the call for help came she nearly jumped "This is spartan 116,"She wispered in return. "Stay put.. im coming back ASAP. Dont leave that cave... at night the covenant have the advantage. Over and out."
She continued to follow, stepping over an elites corpse that blocked the path. She stopped to look at the disgusting site when she noticed something wrong. He wasn't killed by any sort of human weapon... there were no shells or anything. Raevynn kneeld down next to his body, but quickly stood back up as she noticed a huge mangled hole in his stomach. His inards had been twisted and tangled together, some hanging out of the sides of the wound.
"What the hell did this..." She said to the elite, keeping her voice down and still staring at the demented corpse at her feet.
Ten tapped the pilot on out shoulder. "Thats our LZ. Pelicans! Land at the LZ marked." He walked to the back of the life boat. Wonder if Shxzalor is alive, or if they shot him on sight.
Meanwhile, inside halo.
"Parasite. Your sniping weapon will be ineffective. Swords out." He drew the sword and activated it. One of the dead elites twitched. He ran and knelt beside it. "Brother? What happened? Who-" He was cut of as the 'dead' elite lashed out with all its strength sending him against the wall.
Huon:*turns off his comm*....Well im bored....*suddenly eyes a creature running about*What the hell?*shoulders his plasma rifle*....Maybe ill just keep a lock on that thing....*keeps staring at it as it weaves its way toward him*Wtf?...*The creature pull out its tendril and starts to go faster towards him*Ok thats it!iu dont care what it will do whether its good or bad!Im killing it!*Blasts the creature into oblivion*Well i better keep looking for more of those things cause they look dangerous.something peaceful is never that ugly...
[]it was a parasite by the way if you were wondering[]
Huon:*gets on his comm*sir i saw this creature that looked real ugly...I think it may have tried to kill me but i was able to shoot it down before it had any time to harm me...Its burnt corpse is over here and ive recovered some type of sharp object from it...Its very sharp and seems to put out some type of material...I hope you get here real soon cause im scared and alone here....*turns off his comm*
She watched in horror as the once dead elite sprang to life. "What the he-"
Something shoved her foward and into the floor. Her sheilds flared and she looked up to see that bloodied elite standing over her with its head nearly turned around backwards and hanging limp on his shoulders.
Raevynn remembered what the elite said and reached for the sword at her side. She smacked it against the floor, unsure of how to activate it, and to her suprise the blade sprang to life, illumating her face.
The Spartan lifted the energy weapon and plunged the blade deep into the dead elite who had started to advance on her. blood dripped from the corner of its mouth as it kept trying to come at her. She struggled to keep it back, then kicked hard into its pelivis with an unusual ammount of strength, causing his body to fly backwards and off of the sword. She stood up just intime to see him slam into a wall then fall limp on the floor.
Slowly all the elites started to rise. Shxzalor activated his sword and ran towards the Spartan decapitating a parasite on the way there. "My brothers managed to release the parasite in less than an hour. Worse then even I had thought." He got behind the demon so that they were back to back. "Notice they aren't carrying weapons...yet." He also realized the bodies were moving slowly, as if they weren't used to them. "New plan demon." He said and charged into them shredding them with the sword.
Huon:*turns on com*Is anyone there?Respond to me please!*looks at the dead marine walking around about 20 miles away*Theresa marine and he looks like hes just been blown up!I repeat can anyone hear?*shoots off a few more parasites*Those things are coming closer*shoots off a few more*Ok i need serious help!*keeps shooting*Im starting to run a bit low on energy!Hello?spartans?If anyones there i need more help and reinforcements!!!!!
"Landing soon, look up. Guardian angel is coming." The life pod was bright red from heat, but moving slowly as it came down to land. Blowing over a few trees as it landed, and sending debris flying everywhere it came to an abrupt halt. "Ok," He turned to the five marines, "Move it our, friendly over there. Follow me. Go." He kicked the door down and charged out. He saw something that wasn't human leap at him from about twenty meters. "WHOA!" He raised the shotgun and fired, propelling it back. "PILOT! LOCATION!"
Shxzalor tossed her a container of a gel like substance. "It will heal your pilot, get out of here. I can take on these monsters." He said wielding the sword, sending it in graceful arcs. Just then the wail sounded. Much, much louder. Then something roared and charged out. It was a high ranking elite with two swords, blood was oozing out from multiple wounds. It decimated the remaining elites in a maniac fashion. It looked at Shxzalor and the Spartan. "Common enemy." It growled, and took its place beside Shxzalor. It was Drekken. Shxzalor turned to the demon. "One word demon. Run."
((I"M REJOINING!))
Class Pilot
Nerzul Came down low and fast and rocketed toward the last com burst. "Shit" the pilot said, and gunned the Pelican's thrusters on max. He sees gunfire in the distance.
"Report, marine, what is your exact location? this is Pelican Nerzul coming in hot!" He said into the com, his co-pilot long dead and turned into a flood.
