The Mcconto Cronicles
The Story From Now
35 years after Halo 2, the humans started to flood the galaxy again. New planets were discovered and no covenant were sighted. As further the humans started to colonize again, the quicker the need for more space came. In no time, great cities and metropolises arised, and the Spartan Project bared his fruits: 3 new spartans arose, each one much stronger then the Master Chief but more smarter and enhanced too. Nano bio chips enhanced the Cyborg Spartans and each one moved to a complete different galaxy body. Mcconto is one of them. His name is a code.
After reports of enemy contacts, Mcconto moved to Andromeda 3, to battle these enemy's.
Andromeda 3
'Ground control Alpha this is battleship Galatea III, we carry reinforcements and request to land' 'roger that battleship Galatea III welcome at Andromeda III!'
after 10 minutes the battleship landed on the LZ, 2 km from the battlefield. The battleship moved the reinforcements from another planet.
'marines board the pelicans, we are about to leave to the battlefield!' Sargeant Franz ordered to his marines.
There were 6 pelicans ready for launch and 4 more were preparing. Mcconto took out the AR and sat down on a rock.
'ah the great Mcconto, one of the spartan cyborgs! Care to join us in this pelican? We will be trigger happy to have you with us, hehee Sargeant Xenos sayed to mcconto.'
'sure... I will board this thingy...'
'great! I will assure you a warm welcome! Just sit there and trhe pelican brings us there!
after 30 minutes in the Pelican, Mcconto finally sees the battlefield from up high. Smoke, fire, and sounds of piercibng bullets and bouncing bullets and destroyed tanks and banshees.
'Covenants... hmm how could they be here...'
'Watch out people we are under fire hold tight there!' the Pelican captain sayes.
An explosion occured on the pelican 'we are gonna crash! Hold tight people!! We are gonna crash in 10 seconds from now!!
With a hard crash the pelican hit the ground.
'touchdown... a warm welcome huh? Allmost too much.' The Mcconto sayed calmly while inspecting his MJOLNIR 2 Prototype armor.
'what a crash...' the sarge came out of the crashed pelican with the marines and the captain, all dizzy of the crash.
They all were truned attrention on tthe big covenant beam launcher, what once again hit a pelican who came down.
'this battle will be lost if we dont take out that thing! Calling in air support!'
'this is sargeant xenos, requesting air strike at covenant beam launcher ASAP! It hauls down all the pelicans rapidly and the covenant are advancing the battlefield!'
'sir the perimiter is breaking! A marine yelled, while 6 plasma 'nades tear up the human forces.
'they expected us and they use all the advantage on it.'
'this is Aerial division 368, srike is granted, longswords will arive in 10 minutes from now! Keep tight there!'
'oh no 10 minutes, we cant hold that out longer! Sarge Xenos sayed.
'Uh oh lots of covenant are coming all over us sir!'
'time to lock and load ladies' Mcconto sayed, as he took the AR and as the marines stared at him because he spoke and took the lead, charging at the covenant.
Reinforcements arived and jumped in at the batlefield just behind Mcconto and charged with all there might against the enemy who charged too. Assault guns were ready and the humans made an bullet' rain against the covenant who did not expected that. Even the jackal's shield fell and got killed. The humans took down the covenant might, shooting, spraying, and hit them while in escape. At tha moment the airstrike occured and the longswords bombers took out the covenant beam launcher.. as the marines thought it was all over... it was just the start. 2 Truth And Reconciliation class covenant battleships arived and dropped a countless numbre of covenants in a valley 500 metres away. Everybody knew what to do: evacuate.
The marines fled and took the pelicans and flew away to the battleship to pick them up. But the Mcconto still standed there. As the MC, he has an AI too in his helmet, this one knows all about battles strategy, and as a women like as cortana, all hacking things to get access to the Covenant BattleNet were inserted.
The Mcconto standed there with his gun. But the A.I sayed: 'it isnt time yet, Mcconto... it isnt time... have faith... we need to master the SKILL yet...'
and as the last man, the Mcconto left the battlefield... for now... the marines and Mcconto left Andromeda III... up to Sol III.
Unusual travel to Sol III
' you have been undocked from Planet Andromeda III, brought to you by Alpha And Omega Spaceports!'
'wow even in space they use advertising when you do something... but hey whats up here in space it is busy!'
' ordinary tour... nothing to see here... we have to reach Sol III ASAP... but still it will take time...now that the covenant is here, pirate covenant attacks are very possible... they might dock here and try to destroy us...
'I tell you these days there will be nothing to do here in this ship. You might want to explore this batleship, though...' Sarge Xenos sayed.
' I will take that tour sarge... anyone wants to guide me through?' Mcconto sayed.
'I will guide you here Mcconto it is an honor for me to do...' the sarge Xenos sayed.
'here... follow me... I will tell you anything about the ship, every place, I will guide you through.
END OF PART I: MORE COMING SOON __________________________________________________________________________________________The MCconto Cronicles Part2
' at first, here close to the marine cabbins are the weapon loadouts. We have every weapon for every marine available. Our new AR is now combined with sniper capabilities, grenade launcher, and plasma battery's, makes it an full all round weapon, used for everything. It took us many years to create this weapon but now, we will crush the covenants, as long as we still have the upperhand. The battle on Andromeda III was much longer but you came much too late... we need to move quickly to Sol III before the covenants are there destroying the cities. Still we have enough time to look around here... ok the next point is battle Station Alpha, the first status we take when the covenant would board the ship. When the covenant advance too much, we abandon this quarter, which will be used for self destruct when many covenants are there, or if the ship is evacuated, as the Cole Protocol 2.0 noticing. This quarter has 2 A.I's who control much and help the Quarter Captain for any troubles ahead. This quarter controlles the main lasers, from small lasers to anti - cruiser lasers and turrets. The anti cruiser lasers can pierce even through the hardest metal of the universe, destroying subsystems in the blast.if we had more time, we could check this more."
"lets move on to the other decks, we read hostilities! They will be here in 30 minutes!"
The Intercom sounds, and the marines moved to the main Battle positions Alpha, who was located at 25 points, as well as other fighter bays, from Beta through Epsilon. 5 fighterbays located all over, as Longsword Bombers were preparing. Small security bots and small 'mechs became active and moved to secure a part of the ship.
"Covenant Armada designated, make ready to move to main battle station Alpha!" the intercom sounded.the humans had 2 battleships in space just near eachother.
"ok we have to move to new locations before the covenants ---- "Covenants Fighters entered through subspace make ready!"
"what?!? We need to move back to batle positions NOW! Follow me before it is too late! Aww why dont I ever get my gun with me?"
Mcconto and Sarge Xenos were 300 metres from the Weapon Loadout so they had a long way to go, and no word was that they were going to make it...
"move Mcconto move! We need to run back ASAP --------
an explosion occured and the way was blocked.
"ehh Mcconto I dont think we can walk hrough this one... we better look for a Teleporter --- there! Move move move!"
Xenos and Mcconto made it in the teleporter...but they didnt land where they supposed to be... in fact, they landed at a Covenant mothership, just behind some head covenants on the Bridge.
"ehhh uh-oh..." Sarge Xenos looked frightened to Mcconto, "uh-oh..."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PART 3
At the covenant ship, the Covenant still did not noticed Mcconto and Sarge Xenos, as they standed in a dark corner. They saw grunts running up and down delivering messages to higher people as like the Prophets, as on the bridge about 30 prophets standed with elite security. Standing by.jackals patrolled the area's and assault battle groups preparing near boarding crafts , as the prophets ordered others around. Battle strategy's were made by them including use of computers, to track the ships. Banshees were powered up at flight decks so they could fly out if they reach atmosphere on planets. The Prophets at the brigde where Mcconto and Sarge Xenos were marooned, had a special way to order the ship to fire upon a target. There KI is ransmitted, used to active a large, vision beam, fired fromout the main KI turret, who was very very rare and only located at a few Brigdes and Headquarters of the Covenant due to very long process time, to make it strong. The prophets make a KI ball, then attach theyre hands with the turret, what charges up the KI to fire at a weak point of a enemy vessel. A great explosion broke up 1 of 2 human battlecruisersin a critical hit, disabled. Weapons still were active, but it was sure it will take much time to recharge or the destruction. Anyway it was sure lifepods were launching all ready easily tracked down and destroyed. Quickly, great escape pods with weapon protection and strengenth hull and armor were launched to survive and land on a nearby station or make there way to Sol III, who was not far away now. Some were still intercepted, others gone wrong way but the most had gone the right way without intercepting. One by one, parts of the ship were destroyed and in a attempt to break off and charge on the covenant, many ships launched to dock at the covenant ships now, as a KI blast delivered another critical hit on the hull and the weapon subsystems, mading the ship explode again at several sides, but not destroying it totalled yet. But still, it is a great beam who delivered great amounts of damage, as 20 prothets gathered to deliver there own KI in forming it. in the meantime, human ships boarded at the very outsides of the covenant ships. the other human ship moved further away drwing much less attention, while it cruised further towards Sol III. Guarded by some fighters, they were approaching the planet fast. In the background, the humans desperately boarded the covenant armada ships, and Mcconto and Xenos are marooned at the ships, nowhere to go. ____________________________________________________________

I am really happy you like my story! I will keep going making it, and try to avoid any grammar problems. enjoy!! ____________________________________________________________
In the Covenant Battleships
Inside the Covenant battleships a heavy battle occured at the moment the humans boarded theyre ships. as they not expecting it, the Covenant got significant losses and the humans were moving all over as the Covenant closing the blast doors and at the same time closing themselves in to try to stop the humans who planted triggered bombs and advancing in strongholds. No body knew, Xenos and Mcconto were in the ship, cornered in the Head Bridge.
'So, if they are gonna blow the place up... THEY BETTER TAKE US WITH THEM!! Xenos mumbled to Mcconto, when they heared 2 grunts give the message that the humans were planting bombs on the ship to the Prophets. A Prophet called in Assault Squads of Hunters, golden elites, and a few red and blue ones. 20 Hunters gathered in one group, to move and destroy the humans who were advancing all over theyre battleships. More and more Assault Battle groups were called in, and were sended to the designating places, where the humans were now rampaging, as they were taking out full groups of enemy's, whuile covered themselves, and, because of theyre new special armor and weapons, could overrun the whole covenant attack groups.
"So, humans," a Prophet said with a sinister voice, apparently the leader of all of them, while with his back at the 2 hidden humans, Xenos and Mcconto, what bringed you here, on our batlleship?" as the prophet said, again, still sinister and mysterious, asking, as if he allready knew what would have been answered. "Ah well humans, Tumael, take them to the prisoner cells." He said to another Prophet, who did not complained, and walked towards Xenos and Mcconto, signing them to follow him. They moved from the Head Bridge to the mess halls, while walking slowly so they could study the covenants eating there. Grunts were even sitting on benches, As Mcconto was studying the Prophet. He could see that he had 2 plasma rifles in his belt, a Needler hidden, and a few grenades. Of course, even Prophets must be ready, because of the fighting. Now, the situation was going critical. Covenant hoppping, running everywhere and retreating as fighting the humans who came very close at the Bridge now. They saw Mcconto and flinched. They now knew, he was taken. They ran towards him to save him but the door was closing, and locked. Now, even fighting was in the Mess Halls, and the door to the Head bridge and the 2 other ways were closed. 3 humans battlegroups gathered and begin to try to find a way to blast all 3 doors to overrun the covenants. The Prophets on the Head bridge were moving to a small transport ship, hopped in, and launched. A optic camoflage was build n, so you could not see the Prophets were leaving the ships.
'so what should we do now?' a marine asked, while facing the closed door, one by one, 'is there another way in?' he asked, while now turning to the sargeant of the squad, Sargeant Collins. 'we can break this door with our new type of explosion...' the Sarge said, turning to the wall, then to all marines, and back to the wall, thinking,, while saying: 'but it will take us time to make it ready... about 10 minutes. The 3 battlegroups were making the the bombs. Until a marine noticed, no more prophets were left in the Head Bridge and that nothing was left. They turned to the other 2 doors, noticing, that that only one door is the one where they have to go. They need to save Xenos and MCconto. The ship was about to explode and without Mcconto they could not defeat the Covenant. At that moment, the door opened, ( 'at last!' a marine said) and a grunt was about to walk in, but he saw the marines, and closed the door right away, while gasping for air. 'Aww bummer! Well make that thing right!' a marine said, while they were standing there, watching how a pyro tech -explosion expert created the explosive. A bomb who exploded, creating a hole of course, and then fire, to burn the security overrides. This progress must cost not longer then 5 seconds to draw less attention, but making a decoy so they could reach the prison cells.
"so, where did you learn the Art of Human Language, Mister Prophet?" Mcconto sayed, as he now walked right next to the Prophet.
' we Prophets know all languages in the Galaxy, and not every day another language arise, of course. We can speak all the human languages, english, german, all of them. Myself, I learned English from a marine, who we found in the Delta Orion system, near The Ring Of Destruction. Of course, there were 4 rings, but it is not important, because it destroyes full solar systems, and the guardians there are too strong. We did not set eye and foot on a Ring Planet again since about 40 years ago. you Humans knew what happened there too. Just as much as we do..." the prophet said, while they stood at the door of the prisoner cells. Human, I find you a great conversation partner... I think you are not worth it a prisoner cell. I would try anything for you soon. Now, I must take a Escape Pod, we will meet soon. Bye!' as the Prophet disappeared. 'what's up with you and that prophet?' Xenos asked. ' we spoke about things' MCconto answered. 'But still, we are prisoners here... and I hope that we soon get out of here, I dont like to be a fried armored chicken.' Mcconto joked. They might sell me for double price but I gotta get to Sol III and survive -----------
KABOOM!
'Yea! We done it! Move it marines!! Lets get to the Prison Quarters ASAP!!' the Sarge said of the Epsilon 2 Squad, as they blowed up the door with they explosive, and now advanced trough the door towards the prsion quarters, where Xenos and Mcconto were kept.
Now, the hell broke loose over at the battleship Mcconto and Xenos were held. That last explosion was critcal, it destroyed a complete wall with pillars and the ship is collapsing. Longsword bombers are keeping bombing the battleships, and some points of the ship are allready exploding, but the ship was intact. Beam turrets and lasers were hitting the hull, piercing through like a hot knife through butter. Blue, red, yellow lasers were tearing up the hull. A squadron of 30 Longsword bombers were launched from the human ship and delivered the payload to destroy the battleships. It would take about 2 minutes before it would hit the ships. 'Mcconto! Sarge! Lets get outta here! This ship is going down!!' a marine said quickly, scared to death for the action. 'there is an escape pod in the next room! We could be able to make it!!' The marines said. 'we got 2 minutes left! The longswords bombers launched the payload they needed
The covenant were running to everywhere in a real state of panic and emergency, they tryed to leave the ship, in whatever thing they could find. Escape pods launched very quickly out of the ship and banshees, and everything was getting away. The prophets were gone for a long time allready and the lasers hit some of them in the attack. Mcconto and the squad ran in the room, but they had to jump down, 15 feet. In the fear of being killed, they all instantly jumped, and ran further, even in this pain they got delivered by jumping down. They ran to the pod and jumped in, launched away quickly, just in time, when the room where they just were in, was collapsing, exploding, killing whatever species left in the ship, rooms explode, hitting the fusion reactors, who explode and delivered the ultimate blast, in a blast radius of 1200 metres around the ship, hitting the human ship and the other covenant ship. Due the battle, they moved to Sol III while fighting, so now, Sol III came closer and closer, as they searched a cruiser so they could board Sol III without damage. They founded one quickly, just jumped in from the Delta Draconis system, via a subspace node, new piece of technology, for traveling 50 to 350 lightyears far, granting the boarding onf the human with the escape pods.
The cruiser was just about to dock on the planets docking ring, when they boarded. The cruiser. Mcconto stepped out of the pod at first, with his AR in his hands. Streching legs after the journey, and took a walk in the cruiser. They cruisers are not very 'big'. 260 metres long, it could be ripped apart by a group of bombers quite fast. But for now, to board Sol III safely, boarding this cruiser, is the best thing to do. From far, escape pods of the covenant came closer, as small ships. The other battleship who was damaged, following, at the moment when the human ship allready boarded Sol III for a long time, and the damaged one. The humans were one step before the covenants now, and, witht he human technology of the beam turrets, cannons and lasers, they will be a step before the covenant in every battle. Many covenant escape pods were boarding the coveant battleship who was left, as they gathered. Witb that massive ship coming closer, the alarm had to be raised, and the Navy forces were approaching. Heavy bomber squads turning up, and a Light Battleship, 750 metres long, good lasrs, but light in the way of lower costs and faster build. There is not much change in the Light version compared to the 'normal'.
The humans on and around Sol III were preparing for combat, as well Mcconto did. gathering ammo for his gun, as well as Plasma Battery's and grenades, he was intend to battle the Covenant again. ' I got the feeling, this war is gonna last long... infact, that he was on Sol III, 6 solar systems away from Earth, it was now assured, this is a Galactical Universe War.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
At Sol III
The cruiser was entering the planet and landed in the head city, a really vast, and incredible big city. Sol III had the same environment as Earth had, and the marines were mopping at the battlestations, preparing, getting theyre new armor up and the new AR, getting in position, as on the walls of buildings, stationary guns were placed, CPU controllable, and small turrets stick to buildings, and stationary LAAG's and a lot of HAARL's( Heavy Anti Air Rocket Launcher) and HAAG's ( Heavy Anti Air Gun) stationed to blast the hell out of flying ships. The humans were preparing, kids and helpless women (of course there are women who fight too but the 'helpless' are like the ones who have disease or just are weak, or are pregnant, something like that...) were moving to shelters who lead to Underground cities (little less room for the overgrown population...)
The covenants are now near the planet core and are moving through. Golden Elites are preparing to be launched in theyre pods, and the covenant were fully prepared as well as the humans. Battle will soon begin again, earth is informed, Sol II and Sol I and other planets and naval yard planets were informed... they had some time to prepare... earth had 5 years... Sol I had 4 years... Sol II about 2 years allround about 3 years left for preparing and researching for combat and strategy's. the Covenant will soon overrun the systems... __________________________________________________________________________________________ END 2nd part More will come soon.
Halo: The MCconto Chronicles Part 3
Date: 1 August 2003, 11:27 AM
3rd Part
"this is the GHD Psamtik II! We are 4 lightyears away from Sol III! We are in heavy attack by 2 covenant Destroyers! --- we need assistance!!---- subsystems are dropping!--- Weapons are failing! We need-------covenant are boarding our ship, they are reaching for the Head Bridge, ------- we have closed ourselves in for protection! We are ----- cut off in anything we have! Please, we need help! Now! The covenants are breaking through the door! Help us! -------- Aaaaaaaaaahhh!!! BOOM! (bullets plasma bots hit the captain and the others, over, as the Hunters kill all the people in the Head Bridge, and the Autodestruction of the Destroyer was counting off, and exploding the Destroyer when the Covenant tryed to fled it to move back to the Covenant Battleship.
The galaxy was emptying as the covenant fought ships and fighters, as they kept winning. Debris of vast ships flew in space, a sign of the destruction of the ship. In far, you could hear the battling. Explosions, subsystems destruction, and the sound of the beam cannons and lasers piercing through ships. 4 lightyears away from Sol III, the Psamtik II got destroyed. There was a long battle going on there, as the 2 destroyers were circling around the Disabled ship after 2 hours of fighting, who only had his guns to shoot wildly away in the hope to hit something. Because theyre navigation subsystem was offline, engines were down, communications fell out after the poeple died on Head Bridge, were the Nav and Comm subsystems were on, they could not focus on a target. Covenant bombers tearing the place up. All the humans were dead in the ship, due to this long battle, but the covenants had no interest in the ship itself, and they left the ship, and a squadron of bombers launched bombs on the weak points, for critical hits. The Covenants were rampaging all over plaents, as they won everything. If you look up in the sky at a planet, you could see, that the 'lights' gone out.
Explosions can be seen even in a planet at night, and planets exploded. it is a scary view as the Covenants 'put out the lights'. In a quite rapid rate, the humans lost colony's to the Covenants, something, they worked on for about 25 years to build up, they lost in a few weeks of battle with them.
The humans flooded to 500 planets since 35 years ago, what was ordered by the Galaxian Order recommended by the MC. now, the covenant put up a full assault around the galaxy to prevent that the humans would reach the homeplanets again.
At local authority's of Earth and Sol I, the broadcasts were full up by this 'breaking news' 24 hours a day.
As they were live broadcasting, telling anything of the covenants return and its assault.
The humans did fight the covenant before, as they putted up the assault to the Capella system, home of 6 covenants homeplanets, and a great view on the other planets surrounding it.
The losses were tremendous, as said before, and they broke off, after 2 long years of fighting. Only the GHD Adamant and the GHT Argo returned aat the Naval Planet Belphegor VII.
The people did not knew anything of this operation, as more things, the Government hide from them.
Galaxial Democracy is a fact. But only for Earth and surrounding planets. The 3 Sol planets controlled by the humans, had theyre own. In a desperate attack, the humans sended 6 Destroyers to the point where the most fighting was, at planet Basilisk V. since then, they broke communications with HQ at Sol II. The situation gone critical.
Any ship in space in the line from the Delta Draconis system to the Epsilon VII system of the humans was getting destroyed. Many planets were taken over allready, and Destroyers were no match to the overpowering of the Covenants. Although Technology increased the chance to win battles, the Covenant allways sended in everything they got, to defeat the human forces. There were shot down ships on planets who couldnt make it. survivors died quickly due to covenant overrunnings, and what was held secret for years, the return of the Covenants, now everyone saw that the Covenant are defeating the humans at every planet and every solar system. Everyone.
At Sol II, Sol I, Naval Yard Planets Pstotle I through VI and Earth, they had the most time preparing. But the other planets, like Gemini VII, couldnt stand good enough in the combat. at several points each minute a human Destroyer and 4 covenant Cruisers were destroyed, each minute many covenants and humans died in combat. a full Covenant offensive was spreading like one big frontline. the covenant kept taking planets in a relatively fast rate, and the humans tried to flee from those planets.
Now, the Covenant set eye on Sol III. As the biggest, one of the strongest, and one of the most important planets in the galaxy, Sol III had messaged, that it was assured, they will hold the covenant off for long.
However the Covenant lost more ships and units, theyre 'Flood strategy' pointed out, that made sure, they would overrun the humans and then could defeat them. They came closer and closer to Sol I and Sol II as well as Earth. Still, that would take about 4 years.
The Covenants themselves were allready preparing and mopping up as they entered the core. Everyone in space retreated to Sol III as they entered. At Sol III, the Marines could here thar the Covenants Destroyers entered the core, as theyre shield system was at 100% to guard themselves from damaging theyre ships.
The Covenant Destroyers were in the planets core and launched the Elite Pods and now, thousants of covenants pods were raining out of the sky. Nahema - class covenant transports were carrying hundreds of covenants, and were about to land in the far end of the city, in the 'endless' green fields, facing the city. Banshees were loaded out, ghosts and covenant tanks were driving and flying out of the Nahema Transports.
Around the cities, besides rounds, are these beutiful green fields, about 60 km long, until reaching the next city. But under the ground there are city's too. Building on land and beneith it another city would collapse it n the ground. The covenant started surrounding the city and planting Light Mortars and besieging the city, while the Ghosts vehicles driving in the city, and Phantoms carrying many covenants were flying over the city and dropped Golden Elites.
The marines were mostly in Warthogs driving to intercept them, and some Grizzly Tanks (next gen standard tanks) and Panda tanks (white and black, carrying 4 mounted guns and 1 anti air cannon and 1 Anti Tank cannon) as well as a very new type of tank, called Aedlus. The Aedlus is fully black, and had a 4 doubled cannons and 8 mounted guns. The tires they drove on were extra supported by air pressure and Lunar technology, who could it let 'fly' it for about 2 metres in the air. With this all, the Aedlus is a very manouvrable but very heavy strong tank. 2 cannons are anti air, and the tank can drop anti personnel mines if being followed, or for battle.
but the worst part wasnt even started.
The Covenants were advancing and revealed a new destroyer class: the Moloch Super Destroyer, who is far beyond imagination advanced with 50 lasers in total, including 10 super anti destroyer lasers, 25 anti fast ships lasers, 20 blue lasers, expecially good against attacking bombers, very manouvrable lasers easily tracking bombers, and 5 standby lasers, for all purpose, even launching escape pods.
It is holding Bathalum class bombs, anti Destroyer class, and 120 gun mounts for cannons. There are flak bombs and flak cannons who easily evaporize enemy fighters. now finally combined with a great shield, this Moloch Super Destroyer is a great advantage in the Covenant Assault. Although few are created at this moment, they are extremely dangerous in space.
The battle started, beginning with the Golden Elites who jumped out of theyre pods as soon as they hit the ground. After the smoke was gone, they tryed to attack the marines who were the closest. Right away, all over the city, golden elites, as well as red and blue elites were beginning rampage all over the place. Right before MCconto, 12 pods land, and the Golden Elites jumped out. Activating theyre plasma sword, they surrounded him. He standed there with his gun, sighed, and them faster than light, he picked up 2 fragmentation grenades throwed them, and then shooting High Explosions out of the AR and jumped away while throwing a smoke grenade, and started shooting in wild where the Elites would have been...
He stopped shooting. And when the smoke was gone, the elites were all teared up. He survived an attack by 12 elites at once. But his reflexes were far beyond imagination, as he killed 12 elites in 5 seconds. that was impossible, as he looked to his hands, to his body, to search if he had wings or something. he ran into combat again, screaming 'Charge!!'
He looked around and saw that the marines had a hard time defeating the Elites and were falling back. but when they heared him say thatthey had to charge, they all ran. hundreds of Humans were charging, desperate, to bash up the assault. There were explosions all over the city. The covenants were advancing slightly, as buildings collapsed due to the damage. Lasers were fired in the air to destroy Banshees. But they fired lasers too over the city, who were piercing through buildings easily who collapsed and kills everything and everyone in the blast radius, as well damaging other buildings, who on theyre part collapsed.
still more and more Covenants 'raining' out of the sky. And Nahema Class transports delivering more banshees and ghosts, who were boarded and entered the battlefield. Now, a army of Hunters appearing, surrounding the city, as the Nahema class transport flew away again to pick more men up. the covenant destroyers landed and opened gravity lifts, as now the covenant came faster in the city. some took defence, others charged.
The tide may turn... you cannot defeat them easily.
"Sir, we are getting overrun! We need reinforcements! The covenant are deep in the city and we can not stop them! The police forces here who helped us are failing too and it is assured we will lose the battlefield if we do not get more help!!" A marine said to the Ground HQ. A little later, the reinforcements arived.
"this is GHT Stevedore! We carry 3000 marines and several tanks! Requesting to land!" GHT Stevedore hailed to HQ, who was in a state of panic. Many marines were calling for backup, and strategy's were failing. What looked good at paper was not going great, and the Stevedore was carrying exactly what they needed the most.
" Roger that GHT Stevedore! You can land at LZ 07, here are the coordinates for landing. Your orders are to find othe fireteams and battlegroups of marines and back them up! ASAP! Ground Control HQ out!"
The marines in the GHT Stevedore jumped out of the transport and at that moment allmost every Marine started to charge, in the knowlegde of being covered. the reinforcements ran to the nearest coverage point. A lot of them moved on top the coordinates to the nearest fire teams. " Here comes the cavalry! Finally! That was about time you guys showed up! But thanks!" a marine said. As they were cornered by 26 Elites. At the LZ, the tanks gathered, and were about to drive through the city as a front. Grizzly tanks were all ready to fight whatever appeared. "We might be able to take them from here!" A marine said, apparently in charge after the sarge's death of this Fireteam. they stayed put at defence, and now, started to assault too. hundreds of marines chraged, while covered by several tanks and 3000 fresh reinforcements.
The covenants gone confused and retreated, while others advanced, but got bashed up. the humans stiked back now.
At highways, covenants gathered, throwing cars away, as grunts were inspecting the car, as some accidentaly pushed on she gas and they gone 150 miles per hour over he highways over the city, while a grunt tested the claxon, and it crashed later. as very funny it was, just as serious that the covenant were holding the city. the covenant elites and jackals gathered, and form a large group. The covenants made an sort of HQ, in a sheltered building. where the covenants were dropped, and the sinister group of Prophets showed up again, giving orders, giving tactics, and battle positions.
A grunt was running towards the leader of the Prophets with a message. " Lord Astaroth! I got a message!" The grunt said. "Ah?" the leader of the prophets said, while looking the other way with a sinister voice as allways, then turned around and looked at the grunt. Give it to me, then, expecially if its urge. " The Prophet said, beginning to get more and more mysterious, what made the Grunt flinched. (aii!!the grunt screamed, gasping for air, but standing at his feet)) "This is a nice planet, but, as the humans say, time is money." The prophet said, what made the grunt very scared. "Of course, its not money we are interested in, but, the destruction of mankind." He said.
The grunt gave him the message quickly nd ran away. and it could be seen in the eyes of him, that the message was very pleasing.
The massage said, that they were advancing all over the city, and that the humans were falling back. This message was made, before the Stevedore appeared. So they did not expect, the humans now advanced quickly.
The 5000 marines advancing all over the city, and now, it was the covenant who fall back. The covenants gathered and moved back to HQ, and then gone into defensive positions. Stationary guns were placed, and they were preparing themselves fast. MCconto started the assault and saw all this happen, as they approached the position. He picked us 2 fragmentation grenades and threw them at the most vital place of the covenants. The 2 explosions were critical for the morale and the defence of the Covenant. Stationary guns were flipped aside by the blast, and the humans were storming in as they bashed the covenants down. Another transport/cruiser Adamant was landing at LZ 05, carrying 5000 marines.
right after the landing, they covered all the main defences, as advancing from cover to cover every 30 seconds, until they had secured half of the city. At the other half, the covenants were fighting with the still advancing humans. As they reached a top point watching over a great part of the city, they flinched. Thousants of elites and hunters were marching up, a great army, and hundreds of Banshees flew over. Many of them now stepped on a Ghost and drove towards the marines, who were going into defence, while calling for all air support there was available in the city and around it..

Halo: The MCconto Chronicles Part 4
Date: 6 August 2003, 1:51 PM
Part 4
The city was up in flames and smoke arise from the fields. Buildings were collapsing and breaking down, leaving more dust clouds in the area. Miles of rubble and dust, as far the eye could reach, where a few days before, a shiny and great city stood. The sound of explosions and screams and the round of rattling guns was starving away. Ships flew over the ruble in search of any resistance, but there wasnt any. The marines who were fighting het army;s of the covenants were all dead, but the covenants had lost all there battle strenght too. Just a few banshees were flying and a few ghosts were driving, searching for survivors, wounded allies and enemy resistance. The humans and the covenants were 4 miles seperated from eachother, as the humans were searching in the rubble for survivors. MCconto was fully under dirt and dust as he gained conciousness. He coughed, as he saw his armor screwed up. He tryed to stand up, but he felt a terrible pain in both legs and he fell down right after. He kept coughing loud, as he layed there on the ground. He heared more loud coughings, not by himself, and rubble was moving aside, as Alpha Perseus, a marine, stood up. He, was more lucky, as he had no pain in his leg. But he did, had a broken left arm. At the other arm, he held his gun, as he called for medics via an personal intercom. More marines stood up, and gained conciusness, and began to rally, trying to stop bleeding wounds of others.
"hey, guys, over here!" Mcconto said, while he laid down 20 feet from them. They noticed him, and they tryed to help him up.
"MCconto! You're alive! We will help, cmon, stand up! Cmon! You can do it, dont be stubborn!" as 4 marines tryed to get him up, but Mcconto complaned that he couldnt walk.
"when will the medics be here?" Marine Peters said, little scared for the answer.
"'Bout ten minutes, in the meantime, search for other survivors in the rubble!" General Silverblade said, commanding, to the other marines and was talking to sargeants one on one for the overview of the situation.
"...And tell me when you found all the survivors!" he continued, and now, turning to Mcconto, and started to talk to Mcconto as they had the same rank.
"Mcconto... you must know, I saw a weird covenant commanding Hunters. He was not a Phrophet, but it can fly, it can use his hands to make a bomb like something. They destroyed our full tank forces, and many enemy Hunters have gone to move to other cities to seek callenge from the other marines. I guess that this time, the technology wasnt enough to overcome them... they were too strong... ---- he was disrupted by a giant flash, many screams, and after that right away a big explosion who was so strong that fuill buildings collapsed and that the marines who stood on theyre feet were blown away and fell on the ground.
"what the hell was that -----" marine Septim said, when he was looking around, and just saw that no building was standing, and giant gaps were all around them. Helicopters of the medics were coming close and were about to land, when a Hunter noticed it and fired his Fuel Rod Cannon and was hitting the helicopter, who destroyed. Several bodies were falling out while burning, and 4 medics survived the attack, from the 20 who were in the helicopter. Now, they all were marooned on this field of ash, smoke, fire and dust.
"hey, medic, wait up", a marine said to a medic with a big glass, who turned around to face him, and had a pistol in the hand, and in the other one a med kit, and a suitcase,"what is the situation at HQ over there?" The marine continued. The medic looked frightened to him and said: "they are all dead." A few marines flinched now they knew that they were cornered and now HQ was down here, they had no chance to survive. All buildings and shelters were collapsed and the covenant double checks body's of marines to make sure they were all dead. They searched for survivors of Marines and would kil those who still lived, without mercy. Though they mumbled that those marines died a honorfull death, and those, who they had to execute, they mumbled to them, they were to be honored in the Covenant books.
Of course, in such a battle, the news people were broadcasting live aqbout the situation. Mentioning the battle on Sol III, the message landed over the whole galaxy. So that was too, in Sol II, in a Tavern called The Longshot. Frederick Sniper was sitting on the bar, where a boring program was on, wich the barman liked, when the program was interrupted for the broadcast of the covenant fighting on Sol III. The broadcast begun.
"Fighting at Sol III: Covenant Reappearance" a voice said, whjen pictures and 'live' images of the battle was showed.
"welcome, I am Trudy Bassinger" The women said, when thje camera turned to her, and then to the man, as he began to speek: "I am Sam Terryam." He said. "this is a special broadcast from Sol III, where heavy fighting has shaken up the city's." Now, all the people who were sitting in and outside the tavern stopped mumbling, and were all fashinating looking at the Galactic Vision. Frederick himself, took another strong Seraphimacally drink, (Seraphimacally is the new Alcoholical substance, who is better for your body and soul, but expensive, and you get still drunk...) and looked at the GV carefully. "Here are live images of the situation there. We will continue to broadcast about this situation." The women said, as the images showed the shooting down of the helicopter, the destruction of the tanks, bu not shown who did it, the collapsing buildings and the storming marines versus the hunters, as they were slaugtered but a man in green armor bashed through them slaughtering the hunters faster than they all did by the humans dodging the fel rod cannons, he bashed his gun through a hunters weak spot in the neck. While the man and the women keep saying what happened, frederick couldnt even hear them, because he was fixed on the GV.
"Looks like someone said that even God couldnt kill us!" a man in he Tavern said, who was expecially drunk, as he had 2 full tabled full with strong drinks fully empty. Some people lauged but most were fixed on the GV, but Frederick the most. People were walking in the tavern fixed on the GV and ordered some drinks, sat down on table, and was gathering information by looking at the GV. The barman himself was the only one who was happy. In the first time since he sold free drinks, his tavern was full of people, and 500 people were standing in and out of the tavern looking at the GV's. At GV shops, hundreds of peoples were looking at the GV's who were all on the broadcast, and they all were shocked. All the images were showned, and now the images of the medics who were helping the last marines were showned, and the man in green mjolnir suit, was there too. The camera was zoomed in on him, and Frederick Sniper recognized him and mumbled: "Mcconto......"
back at the battlefield, the little portable GV transmitter, who transmitted the images of the battle was focussed at Mccono, as 2 medics were buay curing his legs. The technology of Nano2 was able to 'repair' you Torso, legs, feet, arms and Cranium in 3 hours. The medics had to give a shot of 154 cc of sleep and paralyse before they could let the nano2 organism cure the wounds and his legs. His legs were broken, but the Nano2 technology is able to disintegrate the parts of bone who are not good, and easily could integrate new bone, curing the wounds and problems as well as the pain, and Mcconto could walk after 3 hours, when he woke up after the tremendous high amount of paralysis and sleep so they could operate, who would let and elephant sleep for 5 years, made Mcconto sleep for 3 hours. The medics were looking very weird when the sleep formula did not work on him. Right away he sprinted to the nearest group of marines, and was making the defence strategy, to get out of there alive.
After 6 hours of watching in the tavern, when the broadcast was stopped, the people at the tavern were all in deep shock, so they still standed there watching at the GV, big eyes, as they could not believe what they saw. The covenants were back again after about 30 to 40 years, and the amount of information transmitted to theyre brains was about too much for them to handle. So they stood there for about 12 minutes, before the barman was saying: "free beer for everyone!!" And the reaction was coming slowly by the devastated people. Some grabbed theyre free beers and kept in a shock, and others were slowly mumbling, as some returned to theyre seat, and they all needed a lot of strong drinks to overcome theyre shock. It was like, every family they had and friends died, as like they looked more and more people began to mumble and talk, and all of them about what they just saw.
The marine forces at Sol III were vastly preparing themselves now they saw this situation and researched 24/7 now on technology and new strategy. They brainstormed to combine the AR's better for accuracy and new enhancements, and they came on the idea to make special bullets who hold virusses, especcially contaminating for the same life form as it was shoot at. they created diseases in the bullets, ice to frost them combined with paralysis, water, who were contaminated. bullets began to form weird small capsules now, and soon enough, they presented theyre newest piece of technology. they had been offered salary upgrade, milions of Galactical Dollars (yes, money to spend in all the galaxy without troubles of trading money for money native int he other planet.) were offered to each scientists.
Days were flying over at the battlefield, as recon squads were found, fireteams were gathered, lost covenants were seen and killed, and they expanded to get out of the battlefield. The sound of growling Hunters, Elites and grunts, as well the sound of the weapons of them from far, was now dayly, like traffic in New York. Cities were destroyed and the planet was shaking. Soon, a full desert of ash, fire and smoke was the only thing in the wide radius of 100 miles. After 2 months, th planet was undone of all human activities, and the covenants were about to board a Cruiser, when Mcconto and the marines appeared. Throwing fragmentation grenandes hitting the grunts and Jackals who were fkying away, some against nearby Hunters, who fell down. the smoke grenades created another blindly situation for the covenants, as the humans charged silently, small bursts of fire killing everyone. A Hunter was trying to fight, throwing awahy 2 marines, blasting 3 with his fuel rod gun, and retreated in the cruiser. Just as the doorsclosed, 4 fragmentation grnandes were throwned in and he was exploding and flown out of the cruiser door landing on the ground of the 4 marines who hrowed the grenandes. Mcconto quickly picked up all the fuel rod guns, pointed it at the ship, and jsut when the ship was in the air, pointing out the weak point, he blasted the fuel rod guns, disabling the engines of the ship of 340 metres long, and he crashed down. Grunts alking out and firing to create some time for the ship to repair, but they were killed sufficiently easily and the humans ran into the the cruiser, killing all enemy contacts.in the cruiser.
Soon enough, they bashed into the control room, and slaugtered to Prophets hiding there. They repaired the ship, and moved into space, now theyre is no human lifeform left. This covenant cruiser was from the Elite Guard from the covenant forces. They imported the LAAg's and HAAG's, retting htem up and at good popint for defence if the covenant would attack. Ext stop: Altmer Station, in the Debris fields of Sol III north of the Alpha Draconian system, where Sol II sat. Most likely, they would have to board another ship. Landing wit a Covenant ship on a station would sound red alert and theyre would be lots of trouble on the battlestations.

Halo: The MCconto Chronicles(©) Part 5
Date: 7 August 2003, 5:16 PM
Part 5 They entered space through the docking ring at top speed, as mushroom clouds were all over the planet.
The covenant wanted to kill the planet, for an unknown reason for the marines.
They were in the Alpha X-34 system, containing Sol III, Planet Andromeda III, Planet Ross Prime, one of the old Ross race, now inhabitated by humans and some of the last Ross descendants.
Planet Triva Ecta, a red planet, what once was a livefull planet... but now like Mars, red, and without anything left.
Far far away, the constilations could been seen clearly, because they were 'close' to it, still many lightyears, but much closer than Earth towards it.
to the far end, in the Rama - Mara system, Planet Daedalus, andPlanet Icarus, 2 Ring Planets.
The marines were gathered in a hall, what might be the covenant meeting hall. general Silverblade walked in, expecially happy that they were safe from danger. the marines liked the comfortable special seats, enthousiastic like kids. the general had been very happy by his own seat and used it very comfortable. he was relaxing and wating until the marines were all sitting down. "present yourselves!" he said. "Cutter! Lupan! Franz! Zena! Dexa! Peters! Janz! Uriel!Belphaz!Douglas! Spartans!" everyone stood up now. by SPartans, he meant MCconto
"ahhh... we're safe for now... finally some rest. Marines, I give you 96 hours free. Use it well. Sleep a lot, take it easy, you will need your strenght soon." General Silverblade said to the gathered marines. He was looking at all of them, tired, some sick, some still coughing from the sand and smoke they inhalated the past few weeks. "you are dismissed..." he said, and he turned away from them.
The marines were walking through the corridors talking about gossip and exiting by theyre 96 hours of rest. Some gone sleep all day, but some, were practicing theyre weapon skills. Others were using the medic deck who was very handy for them, as they did not expected. The covenants could heal wounds even better and faster than humans. The covenant ship was expecially suited for the humans, something, they did not expect either.
Once they cleaned up the covenant mess and blood and bodies, the had a special, sort of, luxury, ship. They did not changed much to it so scientists would check it out for research how to destroy covenant ships. Great move, but they had to think up a way to avoid trouble with the local navy forces in space near the stations.
They would soon reach a subspace node to the Alpha Draconian system, and travel 40 lightyears within 30 seconds, what would take a normal ship about half an year.
The CPU controlled plasma pulse cannons of the covenant ships were active, and pointed out: Attack Allies, so, the covenant forces.
What they saw, is that they had access, to bomb the planet Calendrah at the Beta Drahcohn system, what was a Naval yard Planet, where likely, the Spartan 3 project was pointed out. They covered up the button and the terminal, and began to sit down in one of the chairs of the bridge. Examinating the outside in space, watching all the planets before them, looking how the cruiser passing planets at a faster rate than they experienced before, due to that the covenant ships allways been faster. They passed planets, as they relaxed in full luxury at the cruiser.
A rare thing indeed.
They salvaged a covenant cruiser, thats one point, but they even had luxury at it, what was most unlikely. They had expecially luck this ship contained records of covenant movements across the Gamma Draconis system, the Shiva Prime system and even the Covenant Prime system, who contained 22 prime planets of the covenant.
This was expecially helpfull for any fightings in the nearby fututre. But even records of transports, transponders, and it had one of the new covenant technmology, who could create a heavy shield around cruisers and battleships.
A few hours later, they were contact by Valkyrie Interceptors, the best fighters for intercepting bombers and manouvrably movement. They were to escort the humans to the enarby subspace node, now 5000 metres away. But danger could be close now.
As the marines rest, MCconto himself was not resting. He was training his weapon skills 24 hours each day and his hand to hand skill to crush bones of enemy's. but even if they reach the outpost, they still would not be safe. They would need to load up and get other ships. The covenant ship would be commanded and send to Sol II right after.
They reached the jump node, and the ship and the escort moved through it. they saw they passed other cruisers and ships at top speed 1200 miles instantly. They reached the end point fast.
"COVENANTS!!!" the fighters said, and they all turned to it, they all fled away but one ship was firing missiles and bombs towards the cruiser. But the Valkyrie interceptors intercepted the missiles and the bombs, and they hailed him.
"This is the GHF valkyrie Alpha 2, do NOT touch this ship. It contains only friendly humanoids. Repeat, We have captured this covenant ship but it contains only humanoids!"
he hailed back.
"this is Spartan III Codename X -346, I have orders from Mothership/Trade headquarters GHD Arcadia to befight any covenants inbound. Do you contain any Spartan II or Spartan III on this ship?" he said through the intercom to the bridge of the cruiser.
"Roger that, we contain 2 spartans, including 1 Spartan III, and one Spartan X Omega class!" MCconto said through the intercom.
"A -" the spartan in the fighter said, in unbelief of what was said.
"It doesnt matter, Spartan X - 346, we need guidance to Sol II, we carry an great infobay we will desperately need to win the war!" MCconto said.
"Roger that, the navy will support you... and... Spartan X - 346..." Spartan X - 346 said.
Now they finally had support, they first boarded a naval station where they awaited the arrival of support. ____________________________________________________________ END OF PART 5

The 6th part coming at you! sorry it is a little...less than I normally do but still this si quality. enjoy! ____________________________________________________________
After waiting for 12 hours, they expected, there might not even been help to get this Covenant cruiser to Sol II, the best stronghold nearby of the humans, but still in another solar system.
Via the jumpgate and jumpnode technology, ships and cruisers can travel instantly many lightyears. Still, this is a designated jumpnode or jumpgate. For fighter ships, there is a portable jumpnode instant taveller installed so it can leave and arrive whenever ready. But, out in space, with all this fighting, they might get under attack, and that could be inevitable, as the hull wasnt that good repaired yet. Daily, engineers worked hard to repair it and shield techs were trying to create instant shielding system on the ship to protect it better in times of war. The beam cannon's battery's were at 25%, so they could not hold enemy's off for long. After 3 days, finally, arived the cruiser protection. They were damaged, and fire came out of one of the 3 cruisers. Communications were damaged, so they could not communicat good.
"----need to-------lets go------- covenants---------attacked us------beam cannons--------offline------MOVE!!" the damaged protection cruiser Hastersput II said via the teribly damaged communication channel.
The cruiser ws launched, and the other 3 formed around it. many figters jumped in via the jump node, some damaged, some without damage, and the naval yard sended a squadron with them of 50 fighters and 20 Defensive Bombers to protect them, and they activated full power on the engines, when the covenants appeared out of the jumpnodes and 2 cruisers out of the jumpgate, some damaged but most of them at full power. It was assured, the covenants were this close allready, statwe alert red must be sounded by the 2nd GH headquarters at Sol II. The GHC Hastersput II, the GHD Arcadia, and the GHC Aedlus II were now covering the humans in the covenant cruiser, and they had their engines at full power and were moving to the jumpgate, as their weapons were firing backwards to the attackers. A Covenant squadron of 40 bombers turned attention on the naval yard and released their bombs to their target. "EVAC!! EVAC!!" their screamed through the intercom, as marines jumpd into the evac pods and were launched out of there, towards the human cruisers. It is known that a evac pod goes faster than a cruiser at full speed, so the evac pods came closer and closer. The cruiser personnel opened the evac station to let them in. Allmost everyne who had time to escape in a evac pod escaped their death but some were caught in the blast. Many people died on the naval yard that day.
At the same moment when all pods were in the cruisers, thy were entering subspace jumpgate, as the fighters took the subspace node to get away, to rendesvous a halfminute later.
MCconto watched how they entered subspace, surrounded by a Destroyer and 2 cruisers. Flashy white colors turning blue surrounded the ships in the subspace jumpgate. As they travelled 35 lightyears and entered the Sol II system (name will change...). They saw Sol II coming closer and closer to the big, earth-like planet.
They were now out of the jumpgate, and were close to Sol II. Apparently, there is fighting even here. Covenant fighters surrounding a cruiser who desperately tryed to kill the ships using the beam cannons and turrets.
"Hastersput, investigate! The rest, follow us!" MCconto said through the intercom. "Roger that Leader." The bridge captain said back to MCconto through the intercom, as Hastersput II turned to the helpless cruiser to aid it, to start firing the blue lasers, anti fast ships laser, and hit and destroyed 3 fighters. They turned attention at Hastersput II and attacked it, but the cruiser was ready, and the other cruiser could attack easily too now, an both cruisers surrounded the ships as their beam cannons and lasers destroyed the fighters, when now the other 3 cruisers oculd enter Sol II unnoticed and safely.
AT SOL II: SAFE FOR 5 DAYS
The Hastersput and the other Cruiser, apparently the Pstotle Mark V, (one of the 6 Pstotles, only this one is a cruiser as the other Pstotles allways were Destroyers or Battleships), were rid of the fighters and they were changing course to Sol II.
The GHD Arcadia and the GHC Aedlus II were entering Sol II with the covenant ship. They hailed Ground Control. "This is GHD Arcadia and we salvaged a Covenant cruiser, over, and we need to land, over!" Bridge Captain Dene Lock said through the intercom to the Ground Control HQ, as they entered the head city of Sol II."Ground Control, mop up your men, the covenants are back! We have 5 days of preparing left. And DO WHAT I SAY!" MCconto said little hurryed, and the people of Ground Control was flinching but did immediately hat they said. They called up the press, athorities and the government, to give the emssage about the few days they had. The marines aboard the cruisers and the Destroyers were running out in a line, as they pointed out their AR's and they reported at groups. Preparations started immediately, and mrines were running to everywhere, the flying cars were colliding with eachother in hurry, there was a small chaos what was under control. MCconto sighed. How can we organize these people?" When he was thinking, Phrophet Tumael joined him. "Tumael? What do you do here? You are a phrophet of the covenants!" MCconto said. "I will explain...later..." Tumael said through hiscap over his face to make sue they wont recognize him as a Phrophet. Apparently, MCconto could look just through. "Yes... we need to organize these people if we want anything to do against the covenants." Tumael started."What? But... you are a---" he said but he was interrupted by Tumael who said: "You must understand... many phrophecy's were made by all kinds of people and races, pointing out situations what would happen. Some waited for many decennia, others, for ages, to happen. In all these phrophecy flood, one phrophecy was lost. This phrophecy was lost for 8000 years , and was created by the Ancient Vasuda Race. We found it a while back when exploring ancient treasures at Vasuda Prime, and we found... THIS..." Tumael showed a dusty old book with a unknown language on it, with a creaky, Rusty old lock on it. "...The Lost Phrophecy..." Tumael said slowly to MCconto."Open it." Tumael said.

Halo: The MCconto Chronicles Part 7: The Meeting
Date: 11 August 2003, 1:17 PM
Part 7
Mcconto and Tumael sat there, on this bench in the park, a little hidden in shadow, as Tumael had the Book Of The Lost Phrophecy in his hands. "Open it, friend, as this is your future. YOU are the One..." Tumael said. Mcconto ripped up the rusty and creaky lock and opened the book. It was a magically event, as he opened the book and light came out, and the words were shining red, and a voice started to speak loud.
"The One who openes this Phrophecy will be the One who will lead his people in desperate times. When other races attack, when the hope is gone, in the darkest hour of its empire, He rises and will unite every of his kind and will bring peace to both races. He will be born as a weapon of war, on a uncertain day by uncertain parents in a uncertain race and planet. Led by friends of both races, he will overcome the dark and will protect those who were forced in war and were not made for battle, from all kinds. YOU are the chosen, YOU are the one, and YOU will protect your people, as we will watch over you. You will received the holy power of a forgotten art to protect those who fight for the good. Of both races. DO NOT FAIL, as you are their only hope." And the voice disappeared, and the blank book was slowly filling with words. Red, shiny words were appearing on paper, as Mcconto looked at them. He turned to Tumael and closed the book. He looked to Tumael with great confidence in his self, as he believed himself. "How... can we unite them? Never, could one person unite a full race, and be friend with the other race's people who chose the good...?" He said. "MCconto... I will help you find an answer on it. I will explain when we are inside. I will explain everything about why I am here, why I give this to you, and how we can unite. But beware, that myself, it will be hard, but I wont let you down." Tumael said.
The covenant Hunter named Rakshasa was in a Covenant Destroyer called Balahm what moved to Earth. He woke up in a cryo tube. Covenant engineers loaded up his health and shield HUD and he climbed out of the tube.
"Sir Rakshasa" a engineer said."we found a Phrophecy, and that is why we created you. You are the strongest Covenant ever. You are lighter but still much stronger. Your manouvrability is great. Please...follow me... we will do the tests... Rakshasa followed the engineer. They did visor tests, movements test, fighting tests.
"Tests are complete. You are created to kill the Spartan who has just been designated as 'MCconto'. We know you can do it... we are close to their planet called 'Sol II'. Report to bridge. In 3 human hours we will arive there." The engineer Elite finished. He stepped aside, and let the Hunter pass through. The door opened and 5 elites were standing clear to guard Raksasa to the bridge. They all feared him greatly, as they saw how enoughmous strong he was, but still very manouvrable. He was like a walking 2 barreled tank, but looked a lot like others. Grunts were sleeping in their sleep cabbins. These were very small but the grunts didnt need much room. They passed by and walked to the mess hall, where grunts and jackals ate their food. Some even read their intergalactic papers, but only the ones who could read. Normally, allmost no one read it, but something was important written in it, so they all read now. "What is going on?" Rakshasa asked. At that moment, a grunt gave the paper immediately to Rakshasa and said: "Please, take my paper. I allready read It. please, take it, Sir." The grunt said. "thank you... what is your name, small one?"Rakshasa asked, while gently taking the paper out the grunts hand. "My name is... Rook!" The grunt said. "Ah... thank you for giving me this paper, Rook." Then he turned to a elite and said: "watch him. Guard him. Protect him. Give him what he wants. He served me as the first one." The Elite turned to the Grunt and said: "Grunt, what do you like to have?" while Rakshasa walked further with 4 elites guarding him. He couldn't hear the grunt's answer but he turned back to his primary goal. They entered the Bridge, where the phrophet leader from back in the battle in space when moving to Sol III began to talk with his sinister, mysterious voice. He was pleased. "welcome, Rakshasa. You might heard something from the engineers. To confirm this: yes, you are the chosen, you are the strongest. Born on a uncertain day by uncertain parent, you were taken away on a uncertain day to make you stronger. It costs us 6 months but finally, you are here. Our own secret weapon against these filthy humans. You will unite us and we will bring peace to both races: As we will take 1 man and 1 women, and imprison them, to make peace... but not in freedom... yes, we will crush the spartans and every thing they have... we had a recent succes at Sol III and now we will be sure to win at Sol II... victory is near, as it will be about 3 human days before we are there. Its a shame Tumael couldnt join us... take some time, Rakshasa. The Ministry have got plans... I guess it will take longer if you want to overcharge your shield to 400%... go to Weapon bay and get your enhanced weapons. Try to train with them. Meet your squad. Prepare for battle. It will be harsh. You are dismissed." The phrophet said.
Rashasa turned around and left. The 4 Elites covering him.
At Sol II, the armory's were empty, as all HAARL's, LAAG's and HAAG's were put up at strategic points. People sneaked it, stole a few guns, and left back to their house. Some left the planet, as they did not want to see battle. The humans were quite disorganised. The Marines stood clear and were ready. 2 days to go, in peace, without fighting, and still, MCconto did not receive rest. The cruisers who chased them before were returning and were loading up,. As 2 cruisers were not enough to conquer a planet. Although the covenant did send fighters to attack ships in the area around Sol II, they never entered the planet. Longsword bombers flew over all the time, full squadrons preparing for combat, and state alert was gone to Red Alert status, of preparing. That night, still nothing changed. People kept running overthe street, people kept being disorganised, as Mcconto and Tumael watched this. "This is gonna be very tough!" Mconto said. Tumael nodded, as they watched it. "get some rest. We will have lots of fighting in 2 days. Get some rest. You'll need it." Tumael said.
Next Day, the situation was more harsher. People run every side as they understand this was their last day of their life, or, this was what they thought. Even the President couldnt bring peace. No one listened. And with all these people rampaging and scared, Mcconto meets Frederick Sniper.(Name is not sure... this is a temporaly name...).
"Who are you?" MCconto said, but when he inspected him, he had some kind of electric shock, that he could see something special about Frederick. Frederick sniper react. "My name is Frederick sniper. And you are Mcconto. I saw you via the GV in the bar ere, 40 feet away from here. There. Finally I meet you. I searched you. I will help you." Frederick said.
Tumael was right away checking the Phrophecy abou this meeting, but MCconto put his hands on the book and whispered: "don't...". Mcconto kept looking to him, inspecting to see more familiar facts. He did not had to wait for long. On the right arm, a special sign was put, just like MCconto. He flinched a little, stepping backwards, a little frightened, that he was so familiar. "fear not, for I am watchfull, MCconto. I am no enemy. I am a friend and I will try to guard you." He said. "Time is precious, so you need every help you can get... lets get a move on." He ended. ____________________________________________________________ END PART 7

PART 8 ---
They did not have much time. Covenants would be here the next day. The humans were stealing flying vehicles from the roads to flee to somewhere in the deserts, who were not here. Just away. They wanted to get away.
"Don't get me wrong..." Frederick began, "But I must say, we have too much people here. We cannot control these people yet. We need to survive this battle. Then, we might have chance to get them united. But how..." he said. MCconto watched over too, when they walked. Things were stolen, people were screaming, running and stealing, with words they say like: "Tomorrow we will all die!"... everything was attacked, when MCconto, Frederick, and a few marines walked by to overlook. Even people were robbed. But when MCconto passed with the marines and Frederick, they all stopped stealing, and were even more afraid. The strongest man ever, was standing there, before thjem, and he was not pleased. Some people began to but the stuff on the ground, or givving the braceletr back, or shove it back, clothes were given back slowly, and the ones who were stealing, were walking backwards, facing MCconto feared, who looked angry.
"Why do you people began to rampage when a other race would be about to attack? Why don't you stand along your brothers in place of robbing them? YOU would be the thing that mae sure, we would all die in this war. You make us vulnerable for the enemy. And not every covenant is an enemy. I proven that. Why dont you prepare for the covwenants, so you could give them hell? And what is wrong in giving your brothers help in things. Why do you rampge and do the last day of your life bad things, inplace of being wise, and protect your friends, bring your last day with eachother through good, not by stealing, doing harm. Try to unite, that is what I ask. I KNOW the human race is not foolish, and that they can unite, agaisnt another enemy, Humans did this a lot times in history. Even recently. Prove yourselves, humans, and die glorious, and be remembered by your sons, daughters and grandsons intop eternity. Dont do it for yourslef, but for the FUTURE." MCconto said, to the large crowd. He used such a loud voice, allmost anyone in the city heard, what he said, and understand. Others soon quit attacking others.
Next day, 11 AM, Frederick wakes up. He saw MCconto at his bed, messing with his pistol, loading it, unloading. He was quite nerved. "'morning" he said, a little bored, to the just woked up Frederick Sniper. "looks like... the people calmed down...?" Frederick yawned, when checking outside and then to his outfit. But MCconto said: "Take this, my friend. I got it from the storages of the Naval Planet Plato... yes, it is the new Mjolnir, now with stronger materials, and a lots of blabla I heard. Anyway, its much stronger than this ol' thingy I'm wearing." MCconto said. Little less attention to his pistol, he turned to Frederick. "well, my friend, put it on" he said to Frederick, who looked a little in unbelief. He might be a disciplines person, he couldnt supress this feeling, that he had this. He was way less disciplined person than MCconto, anyway, and less experienced, and younger.
The minutes were counting, the streets were empty. Women and kids were hiding underground, and when situation would go out of hands, they could run to the dropships and cruisers.the cruisers and dropships were ready to leave, as hundreds of marineas marched to battle stations.tanks were placed at strategic fronts, commanded by 6 marines, 2 for movement, 2 for the 4 barreled cannon, and 2 for machine guns for smaller attackers. A Glorious tank arsenal was placed there. Generals were speaking with the marine groups, giving them orders, warthogs were driving to everywhere they could be drived to, airbases were put up. LAAG's were placed all over, on roofs, HAARL's were placed, with cover of teams of marines, and HAAG's, now containing anti small ship rockets, were placed near big groups of humans, some as cover for HAARL's, others placed were they could. Some LAAG's were placed on rooftops of normal manors, houses. Fast, engineers turned up with a great anti destroyer bomb. That could be able of destroying a entire Destroyer. That, could be able, to destroy a big force of the assault. But it was 1 shot. More time, they did not have. "Engineers!" MCconto said. The engineers turned around. "Create another rocket, or, as much as you can. NOW! We dont have time!" MCconto said. "create it under cover, or underground. The underground cities sent a lot of men. You can rendesvous with them." MCconto finished. He turned away, overlooking the situation he presented a new battle scedule to gathered generals, and gave copies to them. "Men, Plans changed." The generals then said to the groups they presented.
Apparently, the covenants used a scan on the planet, and saw the status, and are adjusting the battle tactic to break the humans. Now, MCconto presented the defensive plans, who would break the enemy force, they had a better chance to survive. At the last moment, some rabble, entired marines, and armed civilians joined the forces. They received orders, and soon, the forces sent by the underground cities came. They fortifying the complete status of the human defence.
"Rakshasa, as you ready? We scanned the planet, and we adjusted out tactic and strategy. We will crush them. 1 hour to go, friend... ahhhh look... there we are... SOL II... another human capitol, ready to die..." Covenant forces and prophets leader Astaroth said. "Yes, Master, I am ready" Rakshasa said. "I have a lock on the target. He won't escape. No human wil survive. They are scattered, and kill theyre own people. Humans are a dumb race, cruel, as us, only prtected by those fine words like'justice', 'freedom', 'rights', 'democracy'... they who lead the humans could sustain the humans for 6 extra ages...funny, how they dont react. All they do is run, scream, and fall... yes... this mission is much to easy..." Rakshasa said."Did you load out your weapons?" Astaroth said. "yes, Master, I have all the weapons with me" Rakshasa said. "what? All weapons?" Prophet Astaroth asked confused. "uhhh... I dont know... doesnt that make sure you cant run?" he said. "Master, I can carry it all. The engineers made me a suit who can hold the weapons." Rakshasa said. "Give them Hell." Prophet Astaroth said. Back at Sol II, MCconto finished his speech to the marines and forces, saying: "Give them Hell!"...

PART 9
Order,Justice... and War
Over at the covenant Galactic battlenet, most traffic in a long time was sended all over. Elites and prophets giving and receiving orders and coordinations of battle. At planets Endhagra I, Polteris I, Davila II, Sanx III and of course Sol II were batle or soon start battle.covenant engineers over at the fleet moving to Sol II were running all over the place.
"Lord Astaroth, I suggest we scan the planet again. I am not sure we did good in changing it. maybe they intercepted it." Rakhsasa said. "If we scan again to ccheck if they changed anything in their status we are sure we win." He continued to say. Astaroth was looking a little nervous. The small but very powerfull creature was commanding the big strong Rahksasa. But i looked like Rahkasa didnt have much...respect... for the leader. "We are going to fullfill the prophecy and I do not care if tens or maybe hundreds of thousants of warriors die, when we will fullfill this. We wont scan them because they would know because we ourselves are getting picked up in long range sensors now." He said.
On Sol II, the humans were quiet, yes, but it was not like, they united. Or, at least, not all. The age old religious and different skin problem continued to group the humans up. Rascistic problems continued this way. Not many ...unite themselves. Although they were very scared by the speech of MCconto, not everyone...could unite due to these age old problems. "We are now in the...NANO2 Age, after the Nano age, the mech age, the space age, the galactic age, and the galactical war age, and still the humans cant live with eachother while in theory they are all brothers and sisters. The covenants, they are not our brothers and sisters. They are like the bad nephew or cousins. They can be eliminated, when in defence.and in attack. Something like...outlaws-in-space... and then to know Nostradamus said the human power would-be gone in 3 waves... but what was the first wave, and what was the 2nd wave?" MC conto said to Frederick while watching people on streets. He turned to Frederick, who nodded, and began tto talk. "Yes... 3 waves...but where were they about?" he said. "It must be like 3 planets, 3 solar systems, or 3 attacks..." MCconto reacted to the question."Anyway this is quite bad, and we need to swtop it. destrucion of humankind is not something uninevitable. We need the real deal to fight here. Get the other Spartans here to defend. We need to hold put as long as we can, and every second is one now. Defend the evac stations! Team Zeta and Dracon, move to coordinations 365.6 now!
"ahhh look at this planet. Its beautiful with thousants types or flora and fauna, great ancient architecture and full of filthy human. We...are like the cleaning services staqnding by for Nature, to clean the streets and nature of the filthy creatures called Humans.were here. All warriors be ready. We are entering the planet Sol II. We will drop in very hot LZ so watch your step. Do not interfere with the battle with Rakshasa and the Spartan who too,claims to be in the right of the prophecy. He will kill this foolish human. He is much stronger than the spartan at the ringworld Halo 42 years ago. good luck, and die honourfull." Prophet Astaroth first said in the bridge and then over the intercom.
The minutes were counting, and they altered the sky. Many cruisers came through the core with theyre anti core shield and many phantoms were disengaged right after carrying many men. This was supposed to be a quick run for the cruisers, as more and more phantoms were disengaged from the ships. Crossfire went all over and explosions, gunfire, plasma jolts and bolts flew ovrer, blasts and beams ppierced throguh the air and rockets out of the HAARL's were launched and closing in on targets. Some phantoms were shot down immediately, some were hit and gone very far out of course, and another group of phantoms landed 6 miles away from the big cities and were landing in green fields (where undwer the underground cities were, who were big capitals very livibal made and nice to live, but as a shelter very great as well) but Most phantoms were going straight course down to land men in the hottest LZ in long. (well,20 HAARL's, 50 LAAG's and 200 marines pointing guns at you...that must be hot...) it was in the beginning a wonder to survive. At first who landed on the planet was the Grunt Rook who really looked different. He apparently wished luxury stuff and was more of a noblemen than a grunt now. He began to talk to the others behind him. "wow what a nice architecture... isnt this impresive guys?" he siad, while he watched to tower high buildings greatly builded who reached for the sky, miles and miles and miles and miles long. "ok lets move guys! We need to take those humans out!" He said. Jackals and other grunts followed him. They were a little lower class group as he was the leader. Apparently the elites were snipered down when they were about to land. They did have a lot of hits at the last. Drpships were deployed carrying much lesser men but were picking up wounded very fast and left. 3 cruisers remained of the 6, the others left to guard the space ports to intercept reinforcements. Prepared, MCconto and Frederick sniper were using two uzi like machine guns to tear up covenants very fast.
Then battle just started, but it was allready like an hell. Everywhere you looked combat, and no one had intention to stop. The innocent fled, boarding cruisers, to leave the planet—to be intercepted there.
Although they battled good they were losing more men, and it was beginning to look like the covenants would crush everyone.
End Part 9
Part 10: Death and Resurrection
Even the Spartans were in a bad shape. 3 of them befought Rakshasa. They threw grenades at him and paralysating him, without many effect. Then, MCconto appeared, and they surrounded Rakshasa. Since Rakshasa is this strong, that the 4 spartans could even be not enough. 1 by 1 the spartans attacked Rakshasa, and attacking him with paralysation grenades and darts. While marines cover the 4, they kept attacking. After minutes, they became more tired and tired, as every 10 seconds they attacked Rakshasa. He growled and try to hit the spartans. Because of the paralysation darts, he became more tired and unable of attacking. The poison was beginning to work so he became dizzy and lost aim. He cursed and tryed to atack with his cannon. At that point, the spartasns were in trouble, since the cannon has a auto aim. But then Frederick came in and kicked the cannon out of the hands of Rakshasa, and the spartans finished him off. With a loud growl Rakshasa died.
The covenants saw this, and immediate retreated. They survived the battle of Sol II.
2 days later, peace was restored, but nobody forgot what happend. They were the first who survived the covenant and since they retreat, it was sure they would return soon. SO all weapon factory's were open 24/7 to repair and make as much as weapons and armor possible before a possible new attack.
And they were right. On the Covenant Destroyer, Prophet - Battlemage Astaroth was speaking with his generals about a Siege.
"We lost the first battle because Rakshasa was defeated. Yes, defeated. Not killed. You see, Rakshasa cant be killed. Here, I can prove." Astaroth said to the generals and prophets. And then, Rakshasa came in.
"They were able to defeat him, but you see, Rakshasa only gets stronger every time he is defeated. He takes all energy with him every time. They do not stand a chance."
Astaroth and Rakshasa laughed devilly, and the others of the counsil were responding. They talk it over and they agreed. A new siege was about to start.

Each week ill give you 1 part, sometimes 2. now, part 11. Dont forget to post your comments!
Part 11: At The President's Suite
It was 4 days after the 1st attack. MCconto and some spartans were in the hospitals between all the marines who were wounded. MCconto and the spartans were in the hospital because of exhausting and the injury's they had because of theyre fighting with Rakshasa. Spartan Zeloth was wounded by a Golden Elite's plasma sword, Spartan ' 788 ', was hit by 2 plasma grenades and some neeedlers in his flesh, and another spartan was hit by an explosion and had several pieces of metal in his body.
Several medics and paramedics and surgery personnel were running from side to side to check on wounded people. The hospital was completely full and more and more marines were carried in. Then a docter came to MCconto.
"Sir, your allmost ready to leave the hospital. You are about completely OK now, and the President wants to talk to you ASAP. You better do what they say..."
MCconto agreed and after 2 hours he left the hospital. Outside, some Elite Presidential Guards were waiting.
"Are you MCconto? The Spartan? Good. Follow me please." He said, even before MCconto could answer. After a while, they reached the suite, took a lift, and came at the heavily fortified part where the president was. 2 Spartans were guarding the place. The Elite Guards told the password and the door opened. At the table, the President and his Advisors were argueing about the safety of the people.
"Ahh... MCconto! Join us, we were expecting you." "Good to know..." MCconto answered. "Can you give us your vision on the safety of the people? We heard you had great...influence on the people of Sol II." One Advisor asked.
" To tell the truth, safety is different than Defence. In war, its not always the number of the enemy, or the strength of th enemy, but its mostly he Morale of the People, and the Trust in the Government. We must see war diplomatic, the Covenants are ruthless, but WHY do they want to destroy us all? WE must see what is our point. What we do or done to make the covenants this angry. You must know, I even have ontact with a dissident Prophet. I have reasons to believe that the covenants are breaking in 4 groups, and that the covenants alone are not ruthless, but the leaders, and theyre ordering." MCconto speached.
"Nonsence! They are animals!" a Advisor answered.
"If you look at our history, ISNT THAT like animals? Eat or being eaten? Kill or being killed? The strongest survive? It begins at schools, where some children are bullied. Yes, the strongest prevails... and what about bureaucracy, government, insurances, wealth? The one who have more than the other has a higher chance of surviving. You know this quote: A Good Idea Can Get You Millions, A Great Idea Can Get You Killed?? That means that the people are suppressed. If people can really roam freely, talk freely, live freely... than we might have the chance to make a better place. But dont forget... the devil's inside... do the good thing, so you wont feel bad after. Thats my advice." MCconto finished.
The advisors did not know what to say. A Spartan, a Creation, was this wise? After some time, the president started to continue. "Erm.. Thank you for you advice... I dont know where to start this all..." the president said.
"try to ally with 1 group of those covenants. Take prisoners and make a bond with them. Learn to live with eachother. And it might be that we can walk side to side. But there will allways be war. Allways. Its a way of life. Just let the people think they are safe, and they will be safe." MCconto finished, and he left the room.
"MCconto! Where are you going!" the president said.
MCconto turned to the 2 spartans and the guards.
"Follow me" he said. MCconto picked up an Assault Gun and moved out with the spartans and the guards. Outside, the transmission gone through. Pods were coming out of the sky. Turrets were placed.
The Covenants were back.

I really hope you will like this episode, since I gone a slightly other way. please give your comments or even sharing it with others, talking about it in forums or anything else.
Part 12 Size Matters
"Sir! How did you know that they arrived?" a marine said.
"If you befight them a long time, you can sence theyre arrival. I hope you guys are ready..." MCconto answered.
"We have little time! Prepare all defensive statusses before its to late!" MCconto said.
Someone appeared, and showed a badge. "MCconto? Sir, you must come with me. President's Orders." The person said. ONLY MCconto... thank you..." he said to the others. "This better be good..." MCconto thought, entering a hangar with great blast doors.
The marines and spartans who had to follow MCconto were confused for a second, but got orders from a general, who had to run to givce anybody orders.
The Covenants used different strategy than before. Now they started to fire at prime defences, and tryed to control the air. Fast, the humans responded with fighters and stealth bombers. Soon, a full carnage filled the air. In confusement, the humans did not know what to do. The covenants used this to land troops on the ground, unseen or even unheard. Via the sound in the air they could not hear that covenants were sneaking up and taking down marines from the back. Haag's and HAARL's were hit by plasma pulses and explode or were disabled. Soon the Humans lost control over the air and ceased the attack.
"Situation gone critical, all marines break off attack! I repeat, break off attack immediately and regroup at sector VII, 2.574. block formation!"
"You heared them marines, block formation and retreat to sector VII!!" a sargeant repeated to groups of marines, willingly responding to his commands.
They were overrun, outgunned, weakened out, and not much chance they would even leave this place alive. At that moment, 2 blast doors opened, some marines came out, and some big tank-like thing came out behind. It moved very slow.
"Sir! What the hell is that?" a marine asked.
The tank like structure unpacked. Great feet stood, the torso unpacked and became on the legs, arms and a head. The structure was 35 metres high, and had great weapondry. The Covenants saw the structure and were scared as like a demon appeared. The Covenants all watched the sky high structure as they fled, screaming. The Hunters were still standing tall at it, conceiling fear, but when the structure moved, they fled as well.
In the Capital Covenant ship, where Astaroth was with his group of Elite Prophets, watching the structure. They were scared, and you could see it in theyre eyes.
"What is that...thing?" Astaroth said.
On the planet, the sturcture activated. Weapons loaded, and target aquired. In the structure was no one else than... MCconto.
"Time for some revenge..." MCconto said, and pushed the buttons for launching the weapons.
On the next second, a great yellow light blinded anyone, and hit a great group of Covenant ships. In a cluster effect, 10 ships explode, and damaged 6 more, who lost airborne and crashed on some buildings. It began to move with his legs and made earthquackes with his 'Mech. Not only the weapondry was fearsome, but the charisma. There was no such weapon in galaxy's. blasts and jolts flyed to anywhere, and the covenant Armada tryed to fight back. After 30 seconds, the light slightly disappeared. From out mist and dust, they saw green and blue jolts of fire anywhere. 3 more 'Mechs were activated and unleashed destruction on the Covenant Armada. On reaction, several Capital ships came out of Slipspace and Subspace and were off to the planet. They entered the core and right away launched the complete fleet of ships and pods to the planet. No marine and spartan moved. No human nor mutant moved as they watched the sky in utter silence as 4 incredible 'Mechs stopped an armada.
Or?

Part 13
In reaction to this incredibe happening; 4 battle mechs who finally showed up, Astaroth and his group of elite prophets started to look in the Book Of Dusk, 1 of the 2 books where prophecy's where written. After searching the book, they found a resemblance: 'in the 77th Year Of The Beast, on a triple structure, between the Alpha Velothi Quadrant and The Gamma Draconis Quadrant, a decimated race once again fighting off the strongest of all races, will receive a Gift of the Gods Of Life. A immence weapon, incrediblibly strong who will defeat the great attackers. 7 great weapons will be granted by the Gods Of Life.'
After reading this, the prophets ran to the starmap, and searched for the Alpha Velothi Quadrant. Then, they pointed at the quadrant, and then searched to the Gamma Draconis Quadrant, and connected them. It was Sol II.
After seeing this, the prophets watched eachother and then called out for the final reteat. It was no use fighting a legend like this, they thought.
Back on earth, MCconto was holding a long conversation with Tumael, Frederick, and some interested Spartans, about the 'Mechs.
"... So, is this Weapon something Legendary?" Tumael started. "... No... it is our grand new super weapon. The government kept it covert until it was completely strong and destructfull."
Tumael watched him in unbelief. After a while he started to think, and then calculate. After some time, he turned back to the others and said: "Yes... its possible for you to make it. this planet have got large quantity's of Pure Raw Silver, what can be used good with a BattleMech. Now we must hope we can use these weapons good...
"Guys, I think no time to discuss... the covenant fleet is about to arive in Sol I... we'll need 2 mechs at our disposal... Can you spare them?" MCconto said.
"Sure... take them if you need them. Good luck MCconto..." the weapon general said.
The group of extraordinary people were about to leave for Sol I. frederick, MCconto, Tumael the Prophet Archmage and some Elite Spartans boarded the GHTC Adamant and left for Sol I, moving to counter the enemy armada.
After some days, MCconto was called to the bridge. When he entered, the captain brought him to the speed meter. "Look... we are going much slower than we expected...it must be the 2 'Mechs we have in the hangar..." the captain said.
"but captain, we are in space. It shouldnt weight anything." MCconto said. "Anyways it still is. We will arive much later at Sol I, and maybe too late to do anything. We must think of something..." The captain said back, and turned away, looking at the silhouette of the Covenant armada, just outside of range and going just a little faster now.
MCconto reacted and ran out of the bridge, ran to the elevator and gone to the nuclear fusion reactors. These were real great, even greater than the last type of cruisers. He searched for the possible problem in the reactor. Then he got a idea. Since his armor gives a lot of power, he used it to overpower the engines. But then he was hailed by the bridge. "MCconto, watch out, covenant boarding crafts just boarded in your sector! Be ready to intercept them!" it said. Right after, the hull was blasted and some grunts, jackals and hunters umped in, aiming for the fusion reactor. Marines moved out, and security bots to attack the enemy. More and more boarding crafts came in, and the humans were about to be overrun. Security bots and military bots were launching rockets, and MCconto tryed to intercept any atack on the reactors. "Brace yourselves! Sunstalker missile coming in!!" The bridge said. The Sunstalker was one of the best anti cruiser bombs. If aimed well it could blast a complete cruiser. With incredible speed it flew into the reactor and explode. Electricity fell out, security bots were offline. Automatic defensive turrets were out, and lasers were out. Engines fell out. Communications were down. And they could not pursue the covenant armada, couldnt warn, or ask for help, couldnt recall troops and couldnt defend themselves. in the explosion, MCconto was knocked down, and since he gave his armor battery's for the engines just before the attack, he didnt have any armor. The Tower was torn down.

Hope you all enjoy this part! sorry that I couldnt do it a week before... I had enourmous much homework to do...lol. enjoy.
PART 14 The GHTC Adamant was heavily damaged and the engines were offline and disabled. The covenants prepared to enter the ship and kill all lifeforms in there. Frederick found MCconto after communication with him and bridge fell out. He began to carry him to the sickbay. Covered by a few marines, they moved through the damaged ship.but soon, covenants boarded from any direction. Frederick put down MCconto, picked up his assault rifle and aimed to the places the noice came from. He looked around, and he heared more sounds and growls. "w-w- where surrrrounded by... 20 to...30 covenants...sir." A marine reported as he pointed his gun towards the noise. "Duck!" Frederick said, and the marines ducked. He picked up some metallic plates and put it around them for defence. Frederick held his SMG's in his gun pocket, and his Assault Rifle in his hands, his finger on the trigger. Then, a great noise sounded. The covenants were breaking the hull to enter the area. From every place they brekaed down the door slowly. "ready...........steady........" Frederick said. The doors were broken down. ".............FIRE!!" Frederick said. In a split second, fire was opened on the weird looking covenants. Bullets entered the body's of the aliens and left its victim with a incredible saltsour acid, disintegrating the body's fast. It seemed like these covenants were having a goal, killing someone in the group. Many body's fell down fast and disintegrated and disappeared. " Fire in the hole!" Frederick said and threw 3 plasma Grenades to the mass of aliens.they exploded in a cluster and the marines advanced by throwing some fragmentation grenades. Then they entered one gap and took the elevator to the personnel decks. With MCconto carry ing on his back, Frederick was a lot slower so the marines gave many cover as the covenants were trying to kill them. When they reached the personnel decks, it wasnt much better. Grunts, jackals and Elites moving in mess halls and supply's. allmost every door was closed t block off any covenants, and fredercik with these marines were just in time. They entered the bridge as it was about to close. When they were in, frederick put down Mcconto and he heared the captain talking. ".... What about the Secundary Engines? We must find a way to get a move on! We got great cargo in here!" he siad. He turned around and saw frederick with MCconto, who was knocked down by the blast. "MCconto? Is he alive?" he aasked. " Yes... hes still alive. He was just knocked dwon by the blast there. " Good. Scanners show that all humans are here gathered in the bridge and just outside it. we got a good toy we bought at Sol II. This is like a EMP, but then it disintegrates all covenant lifeforms, since theyre body is made by other substances then ours. Now we can clean the place out. Ok everybody to the inside of the bridge. Good. Ok. Be ready!" he said to everyone.
He opened a box on the control panel, and turned the switch. In a instant, all lifeforms were disintegrated on the ship with covenant substances outside the bridge and the places other humans were.
"Techs, I wasnt a scanner report showing any whereabouts of covenants alive at the ship, a damage report, shield strenght and all other miscelanious things. Get the reactor online or a secundary reactor so we might be on time before al humans are killed here. I want a report of the Mechs status and calculation of our whereabouts,, and when we arive at sol I."
"Sir... we have 1020 deaths, 200 wounded, 550 missing marines. Damage: Hull integrity is now 25%, shield is at 10%. Coolant leaks at several places as well as fires. Life approval systems at 40%. A little lower and we wouldnt even be on the ground but we would walk in the air.lower than 20% and half the crew has no fresh air to breath but vaccuum. Lower athan 10% 80% of the crew would choke, 0% and we all die. Primary defence systems at 20%, secundary systems at 40%. But even a few bombers cn blast this place up. About 90% of all covenants are eliminated on the ship, and im reading fighting between the covenants. Our whereabouts: we are close to sol I, 2 systems away. Subspace node will work once again in about a week. Then we must wait 4 months before we can do a subspace jump in this status. We could be at sol I in... 3 months..." techs followed up after eachother.
"3 months... what can we do to get faster to sol I, and can the sol inhabitants even survive, since sol II even lasted 6 weeks against these covenants un til the mechs showed up... and what if we lose sol I..." Frederick thought as he passed MCconto to the sickbay people, and as marines were loading there gun to clean the place out.

"Marines! Lifeforms detected in section Charlie 2 and section Zeta 4. We have rapid moving lifeforms in air ducts everywhere!" the intecom sounded. The marines stood up and grouped up fast. Frederick was still loading, reloading, unloading and back forth again even after this message. He was really unhappy now MCconto could not join his side. But then he stood up and asked 20 marines. His location and area was different than the other marines are off to. His location is section Alpha 5. The lifepods area. He asked 20 elite marines to join his side. These men fought for 10 years lng against any covenants and had 5 years of VR trainings succesfuly completed. They can wield the AR much better and effective.
They need to clean the sections of the ship to get to sol I safely. If they carry the covenants while ariving at sol I, the problem would be much worse later on.
With 2 ar's, one in the hands and one on his back, Frederick moved through the damaged sections, repairing leaks and clearing the area of any enemy lifeforms, they moved through the sections without many resistance. Everywhere wandering grunts with mostly empty clips of plasma were found and killed. After some time, the teams started to clear the air vents. Sounds of elites who screamed were heared by many teams. In the Alpha 5 section, the bridge encountered weird readings of fighting lifeforms including covenants and other. The team of Frederick blasted the opposite wall of the section and encountered Flood lifeforms fighting with covenants. "What?!?! FLOOD? Bridge! This is Frederick of team bravo here in section Alpha 5! We encountered Flood parasites including mutated covenants,flugs and carriers!" Frederick said in all haste while firing at the lifeforms. About 30 flugs sprung in the gap where Frederick and his team were. They started to retreat while firing the shotgun-version of the AR at the floods while more and more came. "Sir! We cant hold them off long! Cover us while we retreat back to alpha 4 section!" Frederick took the chance to let see these parasites should not meddle with him. He took both AR's in his hands and toggled to the shotgun mode and started hellfire at the parasite flood. While stepping back because of the recoil of the shotguns, the flood decreased faster. His prototype AR's could kill 10 lifeforms at the same time without many loadings. When many flood were killed, he retreated back as well. From any side the flood appeared, so they had no choice but to retreat back to the main decks. From there, personal pods were ready to launch from the ship. At the same time, the ship toggled double hyperspace and reached planet sol I while wrecked about completely. MCconto and frederick were put in 1 of the pods with the 20 marines and launched to the planetside. Followed by the other human pods they entered the Core. Behind them, the GHTC Adamant exploded as they entered the core full speed. And they set foot on the Citadel of Sol I, the most advanced and enhanced super Military Base of the Human race.
They landed at the special pods Landing, by using a magnet to get the pods its direction, and then let it land. 1 by 1 the pods were landing. Escorted by marines, the general, the one in charge at this base, walked to the pods landing to welcome those who have just arrived. As first, Frederick got out carrying MCconto, still knocked out, and had 2 mariness at his side. Soon, more followed.
"So! A Spartan has come! Myu prayers are answered."
"Prayers?" Frederick said.
"Yes, we needed a man who had experience in war more than me, but no spartan was here, allthough the spartans counsil is settled here." The general said."So, can you do it?" The general asked anxious, as a Medic revived MCconto, and after explaining his situation.
" im here to defend and not to rule, but yes, we neeed a good strategy...ok...ill lead them...for a while..." MCconto said, still tired out.
"But sir," the general turned to Frederick, "who are you, then? Are you a spartan too?" the general asked, as he was a very anxious man, who wanted to know everything about anything. "No sir, but im a friend of this Spartan here." Frederick said fast.
"Join me with diner, sirs." The general asked. "well yes, thank you. Since we fought this much, we definately need to strengthen up!" MCconto said.
Later, at his diner, with just him, MCconto and Frederick, with the guards who were there as ever for security and safety. A basic rule since ages.
"Since the replicator, you can ask any food you want, even if its a enourmous load of food to feed thousants of men, it can be made in just a few seconds. And it even have the same taste! A pity, that it cant be used in te battlefield...yet." The general said as they ate.
"So, do you want to create personal replicators for in the field?" Frederick asked. "well thaat must be hard since the old battery's still have to low power to work propertly.
" Yes, I want to make personal replicators for in the field and I allready have teams of scientists on it. and power is feed by sun energy for day, and enourmous powerfull battery's for night. The hardest thing still is the noise it makes. In stealth ops like ambushes and sniping, you need to have food without losing your cover. Its things we need to learn.
"since the nano programs, marines can carry 100 kg, but they are allready at they maximum now. Since the battery's weight 2 kg each, and the replicator 5 kg each, it will end up with about 12 to 20 kg too much, and that is too dangerous, since they get tired and they cannot fight properly then, and since the nano2 code is not stable enough yet, we cannot use this or we need to find a way to go below the 100kg limit." MCconto said.
"Yes... it is one of those problems what make scientists worth gold." The General said to end this subject.
After a while, a guard ran to the general.
"Sir! Urgent! CODE RED!! he said.
"What?? Code Red? Sirs, lets move! ARM YOURSELVES!"
they ran to the radar station at the eastflank of the base. "Look, in sector Sigma 5! Theyre here!"
"We shall resist! Our race is in shambles. We are the last left, and we will fight until there is no more! ALL GATHER! _________________________________________________________________ all grammar mistakes will be changed in the complete version.
