In this one you choose your path by your actions. There will be a multi choice and what you pick happens (note: you must scroll down to the path you choose) The story takes place in the Halo 3 time setting. The credit secition is a addition to the story, not needed to be read.

As a marine in the U.N.S.C. core you must make split second decisions to decided life or death. Trained for any condintion, you never back down. You and your childhood friend have been in the same team for ten years. You have just jumped out of a pelican with your team and was quickly pinned down by the enemy. Needlers fired rapidly from grunts and tons of spikes from brutes. You regroup with your team shortly after dropping down. Elites were one hour out and inbound, so the sergeant told them. Their's and our objective was to secure the town near the Prophet of Reget. In your mind you ponder your choices...

Paths(choose wisely)

A) Shoot down the brutes first so the grunts scatter and the elites have a clear L.Z.
B) Stay under cover and attempt to blindfire.
C) Fall back to a nearby ruin.
D) chuck out grenades and shoot after they blow up.

Path (A) A Wounded Sharpshooter

You pop up and begin to fire upon the brutes. They call grunts to shoot at you and you get hit badly. The Sergeant and other marines pop up and kill several grunts and few brutes before getting pinned again. A medic tends to your wounds and a plasma grenade falls ontop of the rock your hidding behind. The medic throws you away and is blown back from the impact. The brutes retreat for taking too much damage and the grunts panic. Elites arrive and assit you to your objective.

Path (B) Coward Wading it Out Grim

You quickly waste all your ammo blindfireing. You notice no change in the enemy fire. You throw out two grenades and hear a faint scream. The other marines hold out for awhile but the medic runs out of supplys and your fighting numbers decrease. Brutes close in but retreat after seeing Elite phatoms appear. You smile at the sight of them running but fear when you see suicide grunts. You and half your squad perish.

Path (C) Making A Stand For Victory

Everyone runs into the ruins. Shotguns are pulled out and the entrances are whatched. Several grunt squads fall before the brutes must go in. Low on shot gun ammo you take out your assualt rifle and fall back deeper in to shoot from the shadows. Guns crakle as brutes rush in and only one marine is injured from a stray spike. The elites arrive and advance with you towards your objective.

Path (D) With My Friend, Untill the End

Everyone chucks out their grenades. Many are thrown back and 1/3 of your squad is killed. Suriving marines shot at the brutes and run for the ruins. You follow in but are hit in the back with a spike. Your friend tries to pick you up but is shot down. Enraged you pick up his assualt rilfe, pull yourself up and unload the two assualt rilfes in your hands. Half of the grunts where killed but brutes end you. The other marines are wipped to 1/3 alive and are saved by elites.

Credits:Wake up Sleeply head

You wake up with a fright, slightly confused. You find yourself in a white room with blank walls and nothing but a pod chair in the middle. You emerge from that pod chair. You hear an intercom say "Welcome back. Your wounds have been healed and there is much to tell you." Your very confused, you only remeber that you where fighting in a city. "You may feel out of place" the voice says "but all will be explained." You see inscribed in the back of the chair as you walk around the words "Near/Death Reviver: Marine use only" there also is a warning lable reading "Warning: subject may have decayed to the point of non revivable stats and may cause an uncalled for effect."



The End


I hope you enjoyed this simulation of what would happen if you where a Halo marine. The events are up to you though to decide, did this happen or did it? And don't forget what if. Please comment or e-mail. Also if there are grammer mistakes I do apologize.
