PLANET EMOS, MORF SYSTEM
FIREBASE DELTA, WARRENSBURG
WARRENSBURG HIGH SCHOOL
"Odin, four more Covenant ships just entered from slip space. All battle cruisers. We got no chance. We're gonna hafta fall back until that backup comes. A platoon of Warthogs and five Scorpions have been dispatched to firebase Charlie to help you on the ground....Good luck."
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Odin wasn't sure how to take the news. He wasn't planning on fighting without orbiting support. This wasn't too bad though. He had been in worse situations before. Stuck on a planet, unknown amount of opposing forces, split up from the rest of his company, no big thing at all.
Odin quickly accessed the MC's comm. frequency to deliver the news. "Master Chief Petty Officer John, this is Gunnery Sergeant David, enemy forces have been discovered in orbit. Whiteman has pulled back and is waiting for support. Weapons and vehicles have been delivered to rally point Charlie. Sgt. Solar has changed course and is currently heading to receive. Firebase alpha is taken, firebase delta is up and running. No hostiles here. Few survivors. Interrogation report when we meet. Odin out."
The Master Chief's comm. system was busy. The message sent would replay until received. Odin switched his comm. frequency to first platoon. "Listen up boys and girls; we got Covie ships chasing our space home away. The kind Captain has graciously sent us a few gifts. We are going to go help make sure they get here. We'll return with weapons and a scorpion. I need squad three good to go in five. Get some grub and refit. James, your coming too. Grab your gear and double time it Marines. Sgt. Wang, your top suit while I'm gone. This place better be here when we get back. Third squad in the front in five."
Odin walked out of the main office and towards the front door just a few meters away. Pvt. James was already waiting. His leg was fine and the plating on his leg armor was replaced. Odin walked out the front door and stood next to the Marine. Pvt. James looked up at the Spartan and received a nod of approval. After a very short amount of time the rest of third squad arrived.

The Master Chief rounded another corner on his way to the top floor of the corner building in the capital square. What he found was a trio of Grunts running towards a set of stairs leading to the top floor. John raised his MA6B and unloaded in a full automatic fusillade. The Grunts were tore apart by armor piercing rounds. The Chief ducked behind the wall to reload while the three Marines moved forward to secure the roof.
Staff Sergeant Killah was making his way up the stairs to the roof of his building when a scream was heard from behind. Killah turned around to see what the source was, and saw one of his Marines on the floor holding a Grunt on the ground with his only remaining arm. Apparently the Grunt was hiding and popped out to attack the Marines. Another Marine came from behind the wounded man and unloaded three rounds into the Grunts body. The Grunt ceased to struggle and fell limp. The one-armed Marine leaned against the wall and treated his arm to some biofome. One of the other two Marines picked him up and helped him walk back to the front to receive proper medical attention. Killah and the remaining Marine continued up the stairs to the roof. The Private behind Killah was wielding a new BR4B Battle Rifles. Killah's MA6B's ammo was expended, so he was moving in with his X28 auto shotty.
Killah busted down the door to the roof and looked ducked to the side. The Marine behind him lobbed a flash grenade followed by the duo rolling in a pair of fragmentation grenades. A number of screams were heard from the doorway. Killah rushed through followed by his lone companion. The roof seemed to be clear, spare the number of decimated bodies on the ground. Killah quickly moved to the edge of the roof to wave the Marines on the ground forward.

The Master Chief, Pvt. Haute, and Pvt. Gates headed towards the stairs, while LCpl. Phillips waited behind with his comm. gear. They were just reaching the stairs when Phillips hollered for the Master Chief. "Chief, it appears we have a message on playback from Gunnery Sergeant Odin."
The Master Chief switched his frequency and searched for the message. After several seconds of searching he found it.
"Master Chief Petty Officer John, this is Gunnery Sergeant David, enemy forces have been discovered in orbit. Whiteman has pulled back and is waiting for support. Weapons and vehicles have been delivered to rally point Charlie. Sgt. Solar has changed course and is currently heading to receive. Firebase alpha is taken, firebase delta is up and running. No hostiles here. Few survivors. Interrogation report when we meet. Odin out."
The MC made note of the message and planned on moving out himself once the current hostiles were taken. He then dashed up the stairs and slammed into a Grunt with a charged up plasma pistol. The Grunt was killed by the half ton armor and his pistol discharged. The over charged plasma bolt tracked onto another Grunt. The unfortunate alien was half melted in seconds. As the MC was regaining his balance four more Grunts opened up on him. The Master Chief was knocked down by the onslaught of Covenant weaponry. As his shields were about to give, the rattle of human weaponry resounded through the room. The Master Chief looked up to see a Marine with an MA8B machine gun pumping out rounds into the group of Covenant. The Master Chief nodded to the Marines and they moved forward to secure the rest of the building on their own.
