...the banshee exploded behind her, and crushed a group of Flood below. Nayomi was doomed, plummeting towards the ground, she would soon die. Maybe not! The Flood were gathering right below her. It all happened so fast; she grabbed her plasma sword, landed on a mutated Elite, and stabbed the infection. The Flood around her had already plummeted her with bullets and plasma, piercing her armor. Dark, purple blood streamed down her gold armor. Now she was mad; usually she wouldn't care, but the Flood angered her enough by just existing.

The gash was pretty big, and she was sure she was going to die. But she couldn't! She had to show the Covenant what women could really do. She blocked most of the shots with her plasma sword, and sent a deadly barrage of plasma down on the Flood. Now there were just ten Flood, including the ones that were getting back up. Her shield was almost back to full, but she was still bleeding. She was dizzy, and fell to her knees as the Flood gathered around her. The infections were now coming, but she held the gash tight. They would not infect her! She couldn't bare the thought of becoming one of them, killing for no reason. They were reaching under her fingers, almost touching her wound, but she couldn't do anything about it. If she moved she would be showered with plasma and bullets....Pop! The infection was gone. Nayomi looked up in surprise, and saw four special Op Elites, now concentrating their fire on the remaining Flood and infections. Needles and plasma showered the Flood, and an occasional plasma grenade. Nayomi watched in amazement, as they took out the rest of the Flood. It took a matter of five minutes to take them all out, but Nayomi had a feeling there would be more on the way.

A tall black Elite helped her up, but she still felt a little dizzy from the shotgun shells.

"I am Rcnu 'Zimulee, from the Truth and Reconciliation Squad--" he stopped abruptly, his eyes on Nayomi's gash. "We'll have medical assistance on the way, don't worry. Now let me take a look at it..."

He reached to take her armor off, but Nayomi jerked away. If he saw under her armor, he would find out her secret. She couldn't let that happen.

"What's your name?" He sounded suspicious

"I am Imnu 'Irtadee." That was her real name. (I decided to give her a real Elite name, since the one I chose before I knew about that site was pretty gay.) "How did you know I was here?"

"We had finished up our battle, and could hear shots coming from this direction. So we thought we'd come help." He kept his eyes on her gash.

"Thanks." She shook off her dizziness.

"No problem. Are you sure you don't need something to cover that up?"

"I'm fine, just a little dizzy-"

A sniper shot hit Rcnu right in the head, a trail of thin mist leading to him. He fell to the ground, and all of the other Elites started moving around so as not to get shot. But where did it come from? The Flood hadn't figured out how to use sniper rifles yet, and there weren't any more humans left......except for the Master Chief. Nayomi had encountered him before, but had to run. She wasn't scared, but she had to. She had gotten a distress call, and had to go help with the Flood. But she remembered how he was almost invincible. If she came across him, she would just have to take him out.

She scrambled out of her thoughts, and started moving around, looking for the Chief, or whatever had killed Rcnu. She sprinted from rock to rock, and carefully searched for the sniper. She made sure she didn't go to the next rock too soon, or stay there too long; she had to time everything just right. Imnu started to get dizzy again, and had to stop to rest for a minute. She knew that she was in a very dangerous situation, but she didn't feel like she had the strength to go on. She didn't know how long she had been sitting there, and she hadn't heard any sniper shots in a while. She started to move from her spot, but before she could completely stand up, something hit her in the neck, knocking her out.

When she woke up she saw one of the Special Op Elites' standing over her. As she started to get up, she noticed that her armor was off; he knew.

Note:sorry it took me so fricken long! i've just been really busy w/ school and practicing and stuff.
