the grunt rebellion chapter 1-2
Date: 15 February 2005, 9:45 PM
chapter 1
fussnucka & kugga trudged slowley up the sloped purple alloy underneath them. another battle had been won, but fussnucka preferred losing. he was different, he knew things that other grunts didn't. all grunts knew that they weren't REAL covenant, but didn't quite understand how they got in. Fussnucka knew.tey were taken away from their own planet. many died trying to resist. Fussnucka was only a child when it happened but the memory was still there.
a door slid open and they were free to go to their quaters. as Fussnucka & kugga walked towards the room, Fussnucka heard an elete grumble "useless beings, all they do is cower in fear." fussnucka shook his head and trudged into the small room.
Fussnucka was a smart grunt, so was Kugga, and he had been working in secret on a project to get off this dredded ship. he was even smart enough to design weapons and mod suits, all part of his plan. he turned to face kugga.
"soon our plan shall take place, we shall form our own alliance and smite our so called "leaders" to the ground!"
"Fussnucka, I don't know about this" said kugga "I mean, yes we've got it all planned out and we've got weapons & all the preperations we need but, I don't think it will work."
"don't worry," said fussnucka, pulling a platinum & green gun out from unfer the desk and giving the manual reload a *che-che* sound. "it will."
the next morning the plan was set. the previsions in the locker inside the invasion ship. Fussnucka & kugga set out to another missin they had "assigned" for they had also told todi, yappa & byap to sign up too. they were on the invasion ship with two elites. fossnucka was driving and the rest were at computers. the elite tat commanded the fleet put his plasma sword down my the ship controlls as allways, he then walked towards the other elite and talked for a while. Fussnucka whispered to kugga "turn on auto-pilot. he then slid his hand over the smooth surface of the swords handle and flicked the switch. the energy sword flew across the room, richt into the spec-ops elite's back,
he fell screaming to the floor.the other elite went for his gun but Fussnucka pulled his first. the elongated platinum gun glistened in the ship's lights. it worked much likea shotgun but fired out scattered green needles in short split-second bursts. the elite stood still. "that's right, stay where you are!" shouted Fussnucka "you allways underestimated our intelegange, you think you are so much better. but guess what?" he flicked a switch on the back of his mask and his voice deepened "we're a whole lot more!" he fired the gun and the elete's face practically ripped in two. "plan a course to the planet with a methane atmosphere." Fussnucka exclaimed."we're gonna stand for our species."
the ship entered slipspace and dissapeared.
chapter 2
"we have a rogue sqadrent of grunts heading to an unnamed planet co-ordinates:00678451. killed 2 elite spec-ops and have enough supplys for 7weeks not including tools.
badges: 1457-6798-7860-5401-1067 looks like they are rebelling." exclaimed an elite navigator staring at theradar system on a black screen. "thiss shouldn't be good. some go, then all of them go." grumbled an elite commander. "they also have some new age technology that won't help us get them back." the navigator said in a slightly concerned voice. the commander replied to the concern that rippled through his mind. "we need to form an alliance that will be able to cope with these and also have enough soldiers to win the war that we are allready fighting, also bust security up to top." "there are radio waves on the grunts comms saying:"fight for freedom, fight for yourself and fight on the behalf of the grunt rebellion!". "the grunt rebellion." mumbled the commander. "the grunt rebellion. this couds be more than just a breakout, this could be an entirely new war.
the rebellion were trying on the new suits. every one was different. fussnucka had a purple-black titanium 0-g suit with carbon fibre "glide" wings as he liked to call them & a doumle methane tank.
kugga had a red-white suit with a fold-out fuel rod cannon on the side. todi had a streamlined black-white suit specially designed for skydiving. byap had a green-white suit with a foldaway turret inside. & yappa had a black & yellow suit with a hole for a grenade launcher.
Fussnucka hovered over to the tabl he was working on, making a wrist claw & plasma thrower that would clip round his hand, it was very hard and in the end put it in the draw for later and continued on aircraft designs. Kugga however continued to make messages and hack into the security cameras on the covenant ship. Todi was practicing his skydiving. off a rock. the covenant had put him through so many injuries and punishment that it had mentally reduced his i.q to 24, that is one of the reasons Fussnucka hated the covenant so much.
"hey guys! we got something!" shouted kugga. everyone amulated towards the radio on the table and leaned over to listen. "listen to this!" the radio made a crackle of static and then played a grunt's voice: "we've got your message grunt rebellion, we have stolen two phantoms and set off! be carefull though I'm not the best at driving! we are approaching the planet now! parappa, grunt tag 1774 signing off.
soon later, a sound roared across the sky and a phantom flew almost touching the ground, right over their heads
"DUCK!" shouted byap. todi soon replied with a rather stupid comment. "a duck! where? I love ducks!"
the phantom landed and the side door fell to the sndy floor
out stepped 10 grunts. a red grunt strolled towards Fussnucka. "hello, my name is parappa. I did say I wasn't the best at flying!"
the other phantom landed more easily without a scratch, 10 more grunts came out, this time the grav-lift. parappa walked over to a silver armoured grunt, the grunt said in a smug voice "who needs style when you can have exitement eh parappa?" "shaddap yatyat!" replied parappa "we seem to have made it to the reccomended planet with MY navigational skills!" "whatever. help me unload the cargo."
"you brought stuff!?!" asked kugga "sure," replied parappa "we brought some alloys and fuel in case we need to make someting to fight back with, also weapons, ammo, sheilds... everything really!"
when they were unpacked the grunts surveyed the materials. 'this could come in useful' thought fussnucka 'very useful indeed!'
The Grunt Rebellion chapters 3-4

Apologies. I know that you have thought my spelling and capitals were out of place in the last one but it was my first post to the site & I was very excited and wanted to upload it as soon as possible also I am used to spell-check so If there are any problems with this one just say so. sorry for any inconvenience.(also sometimes my finger slips.) ;-)
Chapter 3
The murmurs going through the grunts' voices on the covenant vessel had made the elites be more wary of more grunts leaving. They now had night-guards patrolling the area. The grunts, however, were thinking of ways to get around them, hiding things that the Rebellion requested and finding the planet on their comm channels. In the mean time, the small group of rebels on the unmarked planet were trying to get a fire going with some engine oil and wood. They hadn't eaten for a while, and were starving for some decent food. Kugga let out a groan and fell backwards "Urrrgh! When can we eat?" "When I find the food!" shouted Fussnucka "Parappa here landed on our ship!"
"HEY! You can't see a thing in those things!" Parappa shouted back at Fussnucka "You get a slit & a radar and that's your whole visual!" "Fine, just shut up and help me look!"
Approximately 10 mins later, Fussnucka walked towards the fire carrying some grey packets, 5 bottles of liquid-methane and some bread-like foods. He ripped open one of the packets and squeezed out some orange ooze. He divided the substance up and served it on flat rocks. There was easily enough for everyone but only enough for a week; they just hoped that the other grunts would make it.
"30 more just gone!" Shouted an elite over the comm to the elite commander "More going, I'll get on them." The commander shook his head "This is not good. They ARE all going." He walked to an elite in black armour "I have a special job for you."
Chapter 4
Many more phantoms had rushed to the planet. The grunts were now building a dome in which to build a small city. For now they shared quarters inside the landed phantoms. Some had come in smaller vehichles such as banshees but they needed much more methane. There were now about 750 grunts there now and were each being assigned to new jobs such as ground troops, zero-g, turret etc. Fussnucka was training a group of 6 grunts to use their jet-packs in hover formation outside the dome when another phantom arrived. no-one got out of it. Fussnucka climbed inside, there was no-one there. He heard a muffled *clunk* come from a storage cabinet in the corner. He drew his needler and walked towards the corner to hear a low humm. He lifted the lid and heard the pitch rise, he peered in to see a small spikey object with a red blinking light on the top. "Oh hell no!" He whispered. He turned around and flung humself out of the side door as the ship exploded into a large ball of plasma. He fell to the floor, in his small angle of vision he saw an elite's hoof dart behind a work station. Fussnucka got up and cursed under his breath then shouted "An enemy has infiltrated the base! Find him before somebody gets hurt!" and with that he drew both needlers and said "you can't be too careful." Todi, Kugga, Byap & Yappa replied by drawing their guns and spreading out. Todi turned a corner with dual orange plasma-rifles, looking around him suspiciously. He loved to look professional, but it sometimes led him to trouble.
Suddenly the black elite turned the corner and struck todi in the face, knocking the rifles out of his hands. The elite drew a sword and held it high above Todi's head
"You touch my friend and you DIE!" Came Kugga's voice. The elite turned to see Kugga with the fuel-rod cannon "Why are you here? To find information? To kill us? What?" The elite replied not, but charged at Kugga. He was too close to shoot now and Kugga was technically boned, when 2 short blue thin lines struck through the elite's back. It screamed and fell to the floor revealing fussnucka with the wrist-blade on. "you finished it?" Exclaimed Kugga. "yeah," Replied Fussnucka twisting his wrist a little " I guess he got the point!"

the grunt rebellion chapter 5
Date: 3 April 2005, 2:10 PM
Chapter 5
The dome was fully constructed, and the five rebellion leaders strolled inside, it was a fine structure fitted perfectly for grunts to live in, there were comfortable rooms, radar stations, storage systems, even enough for decorative things like plants.
"Good," Fussnucka exclaimed, "very good! There are still not enough weapons and vehicles though if we are going to win this."
"Don't worry, we've been on the comms all day and there are more coming." Replied Kugga.
"Yay! Me get more friends!" shouted Todi "Me also get big gun!"
"Yes," grunted Fussnucka "you'll get it tomorrow. In the mean time, Yappa should get on the main comms and communicate with the ship to get more soldiers. You know what they say, the more the merrier." Yappa then headed off to the comm suite.
"Byap, you put a field beam around the entire base except the main comm unit."
"Yes sir." Replied Byap, giving Fussnucka the rebellion salute and rushing off.
"Kugga, Todi, come to the dining hall, you need a brake." Kugga and Todi then walked off in the direction of the dining hall. Fussnucka walked over to a water fountain and gazed into the swirling colours, he was thinking about what it would be like when the grunts were free, to grasp back the freedom that other grunts had never witnessed before when a hand tugged at his shoulder.
"Sir." It said. Fussnucka turned to face a black-yellow armoured grunt "Sir." It said again.
"Ah, second turreter, umm..."
"Metha." Replied the grunt "third turreter."
"Ah yes, Metha. What is the trouble?"
"Sir, there's a message going through the comms to the covenant ships with words NOT ordered." He clicked a button on a recording stick and Yappa's voice crackled to life.
"Calling all covenant ships, now giving co-ordinates for the planet on which the base of the "grunt rebellion" is holding."
"Damn!" grunted Fussnucka grabbing his sniper rifle and jetting up to the fifty-first floor. He smashed the glass window and ran along the catwalk looking for Yappa. He looked down at he comms and saw him, he pressed the scope to his eye and aimed for Yappa's temple. He placed his finger on the trigger and zoomed into 15X zoom, he moved the crosshair across to the left a little and fired. The top of the microphone exploded. Kugga looked up to see Fussnucka holding the rifle. He turned and ran out of the room.
Kugga & Todi were at the hall eating a meal composed of meat & plants.
"So Todi," Asked Kugga "have you been on the new v-r training console yet?"
"No" Replied Todi "but me been on new flashy-light thing!"
"Yes Todi, that's called a "torch"" one of Kugga's chair legs went spinning off
"What the hell?!?" He shouted turning around to see Yappa charge through the room with Fussnucka shooting stun-darts at him.
"What the hell are you doing?!?" shouted Kugga to Fussnucka
"No time to explain! Follow!" replied Fussnucka grabbing Kugga's arm and pulling him in the direction that Yappa had gone. Fussnucka & Kugga rounded a bend to see Yappa running down a hallway towards the exit doors, Fussnucka pulled out his sniper rifle and took aim at a hanging sign, he fired, a green beam sliced through the air and hit a chain from which the sign was hanging from. It crashed to the floor and blocked the exit. Yappa turned and pulled out a plasma grenade launcher and fired shots at Fussnucka & Kugga, they ducked behind a wall.
"Fussnucka would you kindly tell me what THE HELL IS GOING ON?" asked Kugga
"Yappa has gone idiotic," replied Fussnucka "I found him contacting our enemies giving the co-ordinates of the base!" A grenade bounced into the small gap, Fussnucka & Kugga jumped out of the way to be revealed in the open. Yappa fired a grenade at Kugga's face; Fussnucka quickly pulled the trigger on his rifle. The blue orb spun off and exploded like a colourful firework.
"Thanks!" said Kugga.
Yappa looked at the gauge on his grenade launcher, he was out of ammo. He turned and ran down a corridor towards the vehicle hangar, Fussnucka and Kugga followed.
Yappa climbed aboard a custom made ship and flew out the hangar. The two other grunts then jumped into Fussnucka's dropship and followed him. They flew out of the door to see Yappa boosting towards the desolate canyons below, they followed him through all the twists and turns and came out the other side. The dropship was gravely damaged since it was a bigger model of Yappa's. Yappa ducked under an arch to try to shake off Fussnucka and Kugga, they stayed on course. Yappa was now on Fussnucka's crosshair; he locked on the missiles and fired.
Fussnucka preferred projectiles to plasma; he thought it gave more of a kick to the impact.
The missiles exploded on Yappa's right engine.
"Gotcha!" shouted Fussnucka as the craft spun to a small ledge on the side of a canyon. They landed the dropship by Yappa's and got out. They walked to Yappa's ship and looked into the cracked glass window; there was nothing there. They turned to see Yappa running up the slope and round the corner. Yappa ran along the dirty track and stopped. He had come to a dead end over a seemingly endless drop. He turned to see the barrel of a platinum gun.
"Why?" came Fussnucka's voice. "You have let us down Yappa, Why?"
"I didn't like it." replied Yappa "I didn't like going against people who I had fought by so many times and if I went back they'd kill me. If I didn't go with you I'd end up fighting against you."
"Why did you tell the covenant instead of us?" asked Kugga
"If I told you, you wouldn't let me near any equipment, even YOU might kill me. I turned to the only people I could trust."
"You trust the COVENANT?!?" shouted Fussnucka to Yappa "Remember what they did to Todi? They practically destroyed his mind! They had no room for Ideas from us." He pointed to a scar under his left eye "in return for my Ideas they gave me this! How could you trust them?"
"I'm sorry." Replied Yappa
"We can't bring you back to base, and we can't send you to the covenant." Said Fussnucka "I'm sorry too." He pulled the trigger on his gun and Yappa's body fell to the floor.
