The Spartans Captured
By James and Kevin
Chapter 4
James rounded a curve and over a hill. Whathe saw were almost two dozen jackles, but no spartans. He took out his battle rifle and jumped in. Because the jackles wern't expecting him, James was able to kill atleast seven jackles, perfect. James could now see exactly were his team was trapped; a small, rock made bunker.
All the jackles turned and fired at him. James dove for cover behined a boulder. Out of nowhere, four small explosions went off. James poked his head around the corner. To his left was Kevins troop. To his right was his troop. Susan and Nasser were each holding a SPNKr rocket launcher. In the center of everything laid the bodies of two dozen jackles, a glorious sight.
After things got settled, James, Thomas, Nasser, and Marie got to have there "mini" reunion.
"How are you?" asked Nasser.
"I'm fine, you guys?" James asked.
"Good." Thomas replied.
"I'm injured..." Marie murmured as she fell over and passed out.
Carlos caught her, gently set her down, and stepped back for Kevin to examine her(this was because he was the highest ranking medical expert).
"She's taken a vital blow from an energy pistol," he announced as he looked up, "she's not going to make it."
"What do you mean she's not going to make it?" asked Thomas.
"Marie has some internal bleeding; the only available option is surgery and we just dont have the equipment with us."
They all sat there quietly,then James had an idea. He ran up to Marie, injected a can of BIO-foam, and faced his comrades. "That foam should keep Marie good for about an hour," James said as he turned to Esvi, "can you make this portal go anywhere besides the Covenant base?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Get us to the nearest, human medical center. Thomas help Esvi."
"Aye, sir." Thomas and Esvi answered.
"Kevin, keep an eyeon her BIO signs."
"Roger."
"Nasser, help me get Marie up."
"OK." he replied.
"Susan...grrh...cover us." James said breathlessly as he lifted Mari up with Nasser.
"Aye." Susan said as she wiped out her needlers.
In a flash of light, the spartans were at the Beaver Creek medical center. They ran into the red buiding (the ER) and the surgeons got Marie prepped for surgery. They were then sent to the blue building (the annex) and waited. After what seemed liked eons, the doctor came in.
"So how is she?" they all said at once.
"It was a difficult surgery, but she'll be fine..." Thomas sensed he was hiding something and asked; "Whats the catch?" The doctor looked up and said; "It'll take atleast a week for Marie to leave the hospital."
"So we leave without her," Kevin announced, "it's the only way." They all agreed. After Marie agreed to their plan, the spartans were on their way.
The elite set the object on the middle of the table then left. About five minutes later it returned, this time with a human. The elite shoved the human to the back wall. Shackles, that looked to be made of the same material as the ropes binding Frank's hands, tied themselfs around the human's. The elite gave a low bow to the one sitting, and left.
The elite stood up and spoke; "Let me show you what your insolence will get you." He picked up the object and activated it. Twin blades of energy appeared from its sides. Then the elite, with a swift move of it's arm, slashed the human across the torso. The human let out a blood curdling scream, and fell silent, he was dead.
Frank was scared, which was unusual for a spartan, He had never seen such an advanced weapon in his life. His mind raced, he had to think of a plan or he was headed towrds the same fate as the human. He came to the conclusion that he would have to simply outsmart the alien.
"Fine," Frank said, "I will tell you what you want, as long as you untie these ropes."
"Do you take me as a fool?" the elite asked.
"No, I mean what harm could come to you," Frank said persuasively, "you hve that sword and I have nothing."
The elite thought about this for a while and finally vame to untie Frank. The second the ropes were fully off, he sprang into action. In a flash of lightning Frank broke both the elite's wrist, grabed it's energy sword, and cut it's throat. "To be honest," Frank told the dieing alien, "yes, yes I do think your foolish."
