Dead Faction Part One
Date: 26 April 2009, 4:53 am
The following is a crossover between the first red Faction game and Halo. Please be understanding, as this is my first submission. And so, I gove you part one.
Mars... I always thought of it as a, romantic place of sorts. Improving atmosphere, cheap housing... sounded great. To get there, I knew i couldnt rely on my folks so I took a job for the Ultor mining corperation. A year on mars sounded like a great way to straighten myself out. Man, was I a fool.
I havn't had a minute to myself since we got here. We're jammed eight to a room, time-sharing our bunks, and the guards are everywhere. As bad as things are in the barracks they're brutal down in the mines. You spend ten hours in your envirosuit drenched in your own sweat or cramped in a driller, and you dont even get a real break during your shift. If you dont work... well the guards make sure you aren't a problem. They enjoy thier jobs way to much.
Then there's the pluage, killing miners left and right, one minute the guy right in front of you dies before your eyes, and your turn could come any minute. And nobody know's how to treat it, or more the miners dont know. And after your shift the only thing in most miners' heads is that all they've done is dug themselves in a little deeper...
'Second workshift has ended. Miners return to barracks.' The A.I. said over the P.A. "Joy..." Parker grumbled as he left the digger in his tunnle. "Hey guys. come on, didn't you hear? our shifts over!" Yelled Parker down a long tunnle.
"Ron? Jake?" No answer. "guys, seriously come on. overtime is pointless and you know it." Then a Voice reverberated from the tuinnle:"Hey Park! We found somethin'!!" "just leave it. Mark and Alice havce that mine next shift. have them dig it up." As he finished the sentence, A man in a red suit of sealed armor poked his head out, plasma-axe in hand. It was Ron. "Yeah. We know We wanted to have them look at it anyway. and Jason is gonna ask a guard if they can send a tech down to inspect it." as Ron exited, Jake came up, a bag of empty mining rockets and the luancher in tow,along with his plasma-axe in his other hand.
"So, what did you guys find?" Parker asked as the trio neared a checkpoint. "No idea. Thats why we want a tech to check it out." Parker was confused. They only talked to the guards when they absolutly had to. "Um...OK, but why." "Because, we blasted it with three rockets and beat the living shit out of it with our plasma-axes, but didn't even scratch it." When they got close,a guard stopped them, grabing Ron by the shoulder and raising a control baton. 'where do you think your goin' mine scum." ROn's hand ont eh plasma-axe clechned up. "Leave me alone jerk, it's been a long day." "well it just got a little longer."
"Look, just leave me alone or else..." The guard, angered by the remark, swung the baton."You threatenin' me!? Well threaten THIS!!"
Ron grabbed the baton, and, in response swung his plasma-axe. The swing connected with the guard's blue helmet, and he was killed instantly. A nearby guard, seeing this, drew a pistol and sent two 12mm rounds into Ron's head and lower body. panicing, Parker grabbed the baton on the ground rushed the guard and tackled him. Other miners joined in, attacking the other four guards. As the guard he tackled squirmed to escape, Parker swung the baton with more than enough force to smashe the man's skull. Almost as quickly as it began, it ended. five guards and three miners lay dead, and Jake was nowhere to be seen.
"Ok, this must be the control panel for this stupid hatch..." He felt guilty for running back to thier discovery, but he paniced as soon as Ron killed that guard.
"hmm, doesnt look like theres a panel I can use to hack into this..."As he bent down looking for a loose panle or switch, his hand ran across what appeaered to be a sort of hand scanner, and the hatch opened. "What in the fuck..."
surprised, Jake activated his thermal imaging and entered the tiny opening.
"Hey guys, where did Jake go when the fight began?" Parker asked as he picked up the pistol the guard had killed Ron with. "I think I saw him go that way." A miner named Sarah gestured toward the mine he ron and the missing Jake came from. "Oh what the hell jake..." "What is it Park?" another miner by the name of Alex asked. "He went back so some stupid thing he and Ron found in thier shaft. We have to go and get the little retard..." Parker just stood and gazed at the tunnle. Ok guys, Hers the plan for now. Jeffery, Tom, Jason, you guys hide the bodies. Sarah, Al, you guys come with me. Hopefully we got some time before the guards notice were not back yet."
As they reached the shaft Ron and Jake were in charge of for the days' shift, They all had a bad feeling. Hey Parker, why do you think HJake came back here?" "Prbably thought it was safer here than the checkpoint" Hey alex. keep watch whuile we go in for Jake. If the guards show up, radio us ok?" "yeah man." as Parker and Sarah entered the tunnle, Alex took a seat on some rocks. "man what a load... stupid little prick goes and runs off when we need guys to fight..."
"So, you thinks hes ok?" "Positive. The guy survived a leak in his suit when Ron clocked him with a plasma-axe. I think he's ok." as they neared an opening however, they heared a sound. it was disturbing. "W-what was that?" Sarah asked as she raised her stolen pistol. "I dont know... Hey Jake! That you man?" Parker yelled into the opening. All that came back was an inhuman scream and a hidiously disfigured creature wearing a mutilated red suit. and on it, the name read Jacob Lokkar.
NOTE I'm aware that there is more than likely a good amount of speling and grammar errors. I fixed what I could notice so forgive me.
