A pelican had flown through the thick mist in the swampy woods. It had eventually reached a spot and dropped off a couple of spartans. They were on a search and rescue mission to find the missing Master Chief and find his whereabouts.

"Be careful. This place is very dangerous..." Said Foe Hammer.

"Don't worry. We'll be fine. But thanks for worrying." Said Spartan 528.

"All right. But still, be very careful..." Foe Hammer said and flew away.

The Spartans took a look around and heard what sounded like a gunshot.

"What was that?" Asked 528.

"Probably a gunshot. Let's go find out what that was." Said Spartan 245.

They ran and reached a huge building. They found an entrance and heaps of bodies and weapons amongst them.

"What happened here?" Asked 528.

"Looks like one hell of a battle happened. And since there's still fresh blood, I'll take it as it had happened shortly. Looks like those flood we've heard about won this battle easily..." Said 091.

"Yeah..." Said 528. He looked around and saw a crashed pelican near the entrance.

"I found a pelican guys! Maybe there's some extra ammo and supplies we can use..." said 245.

"Your right. But be wary. Wherever there's dead bodies is an attraction for those annoying floods. If we can burn them, then the flood won't be able to take over as much of our guys. Guys, get your flamethrowers..." Said 091.

They got around and were about to burn the bodies when they had heard a human voice.

"Wait! STOP!" Said a marine.

"Your alive?" Said 245.

"Yeah, our pelican had crashed and I had survived luckily and I had almost been killed and turned into one of them, but I played dead and they fell for it." Said the marine.

"When?" Asked 091.

"I'm not sure, but not long ago. I had fallen asleep though. They got everybody. Mendoza, KEYES, and a lot more." Said the marine as he wiped tears.

"What about Johnson?" Asked 091.

"I'm not sure." Said the marine.

"All right. We're going to take a look inside and look for the MC." Said 091.

"Master Chief? I saw him. I had helped him and then the flood came and I had ran away. I remember seeing him talk to some floating ball-thing..." Said the marine.

"What are you talking about?" Asked 245.

"I don't know. I overheard him saying he was called 343 Guilty Spark." Said the marine.

"Hmm...let's go inside." Said 091.

"The place is infested!" Said the marine.

"Listen. Maybe the MC or some other marines are in here. We may as well take a look here..." Said 091.

They walked inside and as they had approached an elevator, they heard a knocking noise from below. They looked around worried and saw nothing. They pressed the elevator button and they were starting to go down. They turned on their flashlights as they went down deeper into the darkness. More noises were heard as they went more down. Fear came and replaced their brave appearances.

Right when they reached the bottom, they saw some infections run into a small corridor. They moved slowly and heard a knocking noise. As they got closer, they heard it get louder and louder. They reached the tunnel and it was empty, although their radars had quite a signature on them. They took out their flamethrowers and M90 shotguns and got into the room. They saw a marine or two who were struggling against a shitload of combat forms. They both had suffered very painful deaths.

The first marine got melted away by plasma shots and his eyes were nailed. He got whipped in that eye right after the shot. As he was falling down slowly, his hand held the trigger for his Assault rifle and then the flood had brutally beaten his body and infections digged inside as he screamed in pain.

The second marine had been whipped in the face very hard and then got blasted into smithereens by a shotgun-wielding flood. He was then turned into another future vessel for the flood.

The flood then smelled more marines and immediately started to attack the marines. A sniper flood had then came throught a door directly across and sent a bullet that got 245 right in the neck. Luckily, he had survived, but he had taken major damage and his shields regenerator was damaged. He had fallen past the door and it closed.

Spartan 091 took a plasma grenade and threw it and it got the sniper flood in the head and he had backed up where most of his infected buddies were and BAM! There was also a pair of carrier flood and grenades that helped contribute to a massive chain reaction, thus obliterating everything on that ledge. The marines went over to the bottom floor and scavenged amongst the heaps of dead bodies and found an excellent source of ammo. They even found a couple rocket launchers and a decent amount of ammo for them near a doorway.

They got their new weapons and moved on to the next room. As they were walking slowly into the halls, they had encountered a sole marine. They found a helmet on the floor that read Private Jenkins. He had been injured badly, but he was still alive.

"I thought I was the only one left! You've gotta get outta here NOW!" Said Jenkins.

"We're trying to find the MC and possibly any marines. Do you happen to know where the Sarge is?" Asked 091.

"I know where you can find the Sarge. I was with him, Keyes, and Mendoza. We had come down here and found nothing but these things. I did see MC, but I had passed out and he put me down. It was shortly after the encounter.I had an infection in me and would have became one of them, but the MC I think got him out. I remember those things tore my chest apart." Said Jenkins.

"So we can see..." Said 245.

"Yah. I'm feeling strange...Ahh!!NOO...Auggh...guys...leave NOW!" Said Jenkins as he was struggling.

"I don't think the infection was ripped out of you Jenkins..." Said 528.

Jenkins fell to the floor and slowly mutated. His head had slowly been titled sideways. He then jumped up shortly and stared at the Marines. He ran towards them, releasing a blood-curdling shriek to announce his assault.

"Men...get ready! We're going to have to put him out!" Said 091, as he cocked his shotgun.

Jenkins ran like a train at the Spartans and jumped up into the air as if he was launched by a catapult. He raised his enticles as he was about to hit the Spartans and Marine.
