0430 HOURS, June 7, 2558 (Military Calander)/
Epsilon Eradica System, base camp for the Sons
of Sparta, planet Miller VI.
Spartan-117,long ago known as John. Now he is only referred to by his rank: The Master Chief.
The Master Chief walked down the hall to meet his platoon seargants. The battle for Earth has been over for three years now. For the MCs accomplishments in his battle career, he has recieved the respect of the Marines and a company of his choice helljumpers.
Before the destruction of Reach, Chief Mendez had successfully trained 13 more Spartans. During the battle of Earth, 10 of these Spartans fell. The remaining 3 were assigned to the Master Chief. These men were his platoon leaders.
The MC walked into the confrerece room. One of the Spartans barked "Ten-HUT." "At ease Spartans," replied the Master Chief. He looked around the room at his PSs. SSgt. Killah was eating some breakfast while SSgt. Solar was running through battle simulations. He walked to talk to his third platoon leader.
"Gunny Odin, whats the status of our Marines?"
GSgt.Odin snapped to attention and replied, "Sir, SOS. Company is just waking up and preparing for morning PT sir."
The MC simply nodded and ordered the Spartans to gear up. The four Spartans walked out of conference room and moved down the hall to the armory. When they got to the armory the Marine there saluted and allowed them in. In a special compartment at the back of the armory rested their new MJOLNIR armor. Their old suits were dented and scarred from years of battle. The Spartans suited up and moved on to the weapons area. There, they each grabbed their own personally customized MA6B batlle rifles. Killah also grabbed an X28 shotgun. Odin and Solar each picked up an M5 side arm. The Master Chief decided not to pick up a secondary weapon.
The MC clicked his communications systems and accessed the command channel.
(Tzzkt)...Captain?...(Tzzkt)...Yes Mater Chief?...(Tzzkt)...Reporting for orders sir....(Tzzkt)
...(Tzzkt)...Master Chief there are reports indicating Covenant on the planet Emos in the Morf system...We have been ordered to go check things out...(Tzzkt)...Roger that sir. I'll have SOS. good to go in 10...(Tzzkt)...Stand fast Chief...we still have 2 hours till we get the starship ready...(Tzzkt)...Aye aye sir, Master Chief out...(Tzzkt)
The Master Chief turned to his PSs and said, "We leave for a Covenant sweep in two hours get the Marines when they're done with PT and gear them up. We need to hit the range before we board the starship."
1000 HOURS, June 7, 2558 (Military Calander)/
UNSC Starship Whiteman, Morf system, orbiting
planet Emos
The Master Chief, Odin, Solar, and Killah were standing, waiting. SOS. Company stood before them, suited, armed, and good to go. Odins first platoon consisted of 16 ODSTs, 24 Marine regs, and 15 Marine Recon Special Forces. Solar and Killahs platoons each had 20 ODSTs and 20 Marine regs with 10 army Rangers. Each have seen more than their share of battle. Each fought in the defense of Earth. Each stood, and waited for another fight.
Happy with what he saw the MC broke the silence, "All right men, time to go, LOAD UP!"
The Marines moved fast, loaded and strapped in. The Pelicans fired up and exited the bay. The ride down was fast. The Pelicans started shaking violently when they entered the atmosphere. Once they broke through the atmosphere the ride was relatively smooth.
The MC, in 3rd platoons head Pelican, spoke again, "Odin, Solar. Get ur men ready and head to LZs alpha and Delta. I'll take 3rd platoon to Beta. Rally at Charlie point by 2200 hours."
Three winking lights on his HUD affirmed his commands. He missed those winks. 1st platoons pelicans turned towards the east and 2nd platoons pelicans tuned toward the west. The MC and Killah rode in seperate pelicans from 3rd platoon. They flew towards the capital city of Ishkrit.
Atfer the Covenant was defeated on Earth and their fleets destroyed, they have lost most of their will to fight. The Central Inteligence Committee of the Human Alliance discovered that the main force of the Covenant, the grunts, have disbanded from the faction and is continuing the assault on the human race alone.
The rest of the Covenant stayed together and has fallen back to their own territory to regroup.
The humans however, have expanded. They have regained most of their lost land and pushed a little bit further. Emos was on the brim of the human empire.
The MC and 3rd platoon had Ishkrit in view on the horizon. The MC turned his comm systems on to the command channel and spoke to 3rd platoon. "ETA two minutes. Set up a perimiter once we get groundside."
Third platoons pelicans hovered above the city square. The Master Chief ordered the Marines to drop. The Master Chief was first to drop. Killah dropped out of his own pelican moments later. They were followed one by one by the Marines.
Each soldier had a grav-pack that allowed him to hover. So each member of third platoon slowly ascended to the ground below. Once on the ground the Marines, the Rangers, and the Spartans disengaged their packs and moved into position to secure the square. The city square was an open square with a statue in the middle and buildings outlining the area. The Marines moved to secure the buildings. The Rangers moved to secure the statue and position snipers at the top.
On the way to the corner building Killah's motion sensors went crazy. Ssgt Killah turned towards the MC and yelled loud enough for everyone to hear, "WE GOT COMPANY"
