Jay heaved the Gold Elites bulk of of his machete and managed to dodge a plasma sword swipe aimed at his head. So far the spartan wasn't having a good day his mission was to kill the commander so they would have a base of operations. He figured it would be easy, but this was proving to be anything but easy. "Why won't you die!!" screamed Jay as he swung his machete at the Elite. The alien barley managed to avoid the blade, his arm laid open to the bone by the sharp blade. "DIE YOU BASTARD!" screamed Jay in anger as he swung his weapon at the Elite's head. The Covenant with catlike grace avoided the swing by a mile. Jay was indeed getting pissed. "DIE!!!!" screamed Jay again and again as he swung his razor sharp blade. Out of luck he manged to slice the alien in the neck no problem unless it's your jugular vein. This Elite wasn't that lucky, purple blood sprayed like a fountain as the cyborg walked past the dying creature. Then he stopped an pulled out his AR. "Happy afterlife." Jay said in an icy tone as he pulled the trigger. Seconds later purple gore was smeared all over the floor as the elite dropped a big hole punched through his face. As Jay walked toward the exit of the courthouse his radio sprung to life, "this is srg. Carlo Grey, i'm pinned down on the east side of the courthouse by heavy resistance all my marines are dead i have no other support i can't hold them off!" suddenly the crack of an assault rifle being fired was heard and the screams of several Grunts, Then an explosion and the radio went staticy. Jay cursed as he ran to the sargent. As he got there the sargent was busy taking out a wave of jackals and grunts. Jay switched to his smg's and fired into the wave of enemies several Grunts fell their blue blood soaking the earth. Then the Covenant started falter then broke and fled. "Hello." said the sargent visibly wounded. "You sure took your damn time," said the officer to the spartan. "Your lucky without me you wouldn't be alive right now." the cyborg shot back angrily. "Shut up and fight." and that was the last they talked as they proceeded to take out Covenant aliens. Jay dodged a hail of plasma fire and took out several jackals with his twin SMG's. The sargent rolled to a kneeling position and fired his MA5B at the approaching hoard of aliens. Several foes fell and thew rest trapmpled them as they ran forward. Suddenly a rocket screamed out of the sky and blew the charging mass into nothing more than limbs and blood spray. Jay managed to find a Jackhammer launcher with full ammo and proceeded to blow the evil aliens to pieces. Jackhammer rounds flared and exploded into masses of aliens taking down dozens at a time.Meanwhile the sargent fired a newly acquired shotgun into the ranks the last Covenant resistance. As the last enemy fell a slug loged in its chest the two humans walked to the next wave of Marines being launched from the dropships. As the camp was being set up the sargent walked to the commanding officer and said,"Sargent Carlo Grey reporting for duty sir!" As Jay looked at the officer he saw a spark of resentment flash across his face. "There's a story here." thought Jay silently to himself. "At ease sargent,but what brings you here carlo?" the corporal said truly enjoying his power. "Stop gloating and get on with the briefing
Nimitz! We all know it was me who deserved that promotion." the sargent said with resentment. "Well if you had finished faster maybe you could have-" "Shut up and tell us where to get briefed if your not going to!" Screamed Grey in anger. "What? insubordination! you dare tell me to shut up-" and that was as far as the corporal got before a plasma shot connected with his face sending him sprawling on the ground with a bloodied charred face. "Covenant attack!" screamed a marine before being blown to pieces by a fuel rod projectile. "Damnit!" cursed Carlo as he grabbed his AR and ran to the source of the gunshots and plasma fire. Jay beat him there with his cybernetically enhanced legs. "Whats going on?" screamed Jay to the nearest marine. "We're under attack what do you thinks going on?!" replied the marine firing his assault rifle frantically. Jay said no more as he dropped his empty Jackhammer launcher and switched it for a dead marines shotgun. Jay proceeded to take down a Jackal,then an Elite,and then a multidtude of Grunts.Then a plasma grenade soared through the air,
