2034 Hours Nov.15,2553 New York City, North America, Earth, Sol System
The reflection of the plasma shown brilliantly on Sam's visor. It kept coming closer and closer. Sam started to panic but within a second he recovered and jammed the acceleration down to the floor of the Warthog. He hit a ghost causing it to flip in the air. Just as it flipped behind John the plasma hit the road and exploded. The ghost took the brunt of the explosion and the pilot was thrown 50ft. from the cockpit. He landed on John causing him to fall out. He hit the road as sparks flew from the friction of his armor hitting the road. Before he could pick up his shotgun a squad of jackals surrounded him. They charged their plasma pistols and fired. Before they hit John jumped right over one. Several of them were hit from their squad mates fire. They started firing at him in midair not noticing a Warthog coming straight at them. Sam ran over 3 and Mike cut the ones on the other side of circle down with his dual SMGs. John landed right on the hood of the Warthog. Sam sustained his speed as John flung himself into the turret. Just as he got set up John opened fired with the LAAG, cutting down a pair of Elites and a group of Brutes in seconds.
The rest of the Covies retreated after several Phantoms were shot down. Sam looked at his HUD, they had only sustained 4 kills, bringing the death toll for the 203rd up to 26 and only suffering 14 hit, all of whom only taking light damage to their suits, no one but the dead had had their flesh hit. Several Spartans who had been knocked from their vehicles hijacked a dozen ghosts, 3 wraiths, and a Shadow. After everybody had got back on a vehicle the convoy continued eastward. The CO of the regiment Col. William-213, voice came up on the radio, "Keep your eyes open boys, satelite imagery shows a mechanized division of Covies forming a perimeter around the HQ a mile from it. Also 4 divisions, 2 armored are sweeping around our right flank and 3 others are sweeping across our left flank. Looks like we'll be surrounded in about 3 hours. Don't worry to much though, we're only 7 miles from the HQ perimeter. Over."
Field Master Hunolkar was furious, 7 of his divisions had been taken away from his army to make an attack on a regiment of humans, "A regiment," he roared, his voice scaring his aids.
"Sorry, my lord, please forgive me," he said.
"You are forgiven," said the Prophet Iseljob, "I would not have you destroyed for becoming furious with for taking away 7 your divisions to attack a regiment of humans. After all you are one of my best commanders."
"Yes my lord."
"I've taken those divisions because the regiment heading for your HQ contain the Emarald Soldiers."
"But I thought all but one were destroyed on Reach, my lord."
"You are correct, but the humans managed to train a full regiment of them before our attack on Earth. So you see, due to their awesome power 70,000 of your troops are needed to take out 2,000 Spartans."
"Yes, my lord."
"I'm glad you understand Humolkar and please don't ever let that happen again." His image then disappeared from the HoloCom. Humolkar turned around in rage, his aids looked upon them with fear in his eyes.
"I want the perimeter around our HQ to be finished within the hour," he growled. One of his aids turned and sprinted out the building. Then a huge explosion was heard near the perimeter. "All men, man your battlestations," he roared into the radio.
The Spartans attacked on the southwest section of the perimeter. The Spartans dominated the Covenant, cutting them down with LAAG and HVGL fire. Most of the other Covies moved to that position to reinforce it. When this happened 15 Warthogs and all the hijacked Covie vehicles except the wraiths attacked from the northeast. They elimanted what was left of the perimeter force. The reached the HQ suffering no caualties. Mike hopped out of the Warthog and tossed a grenade into the HQ, it exploded and a grunt flew out the entrance. A squad of Spartans disembarked from the Shadow and came up to the side of the entrance, Sam, Mike, and John went up behind them. The lead Spartan threw in a grenade and the column of Spartans rushed in. A platoon of Covies was cut down in 4 seconds by the Spartans. They moved up to the door leading into the general's command center. One kicked in the door and another threw in a flashbang. They charged into the room and secured the main computer. The only thing that suprised them was that no Covies were in the room. Suddenly 3 other doors blew open and Covies lead by a gold elite poured into the room. Bullets and plasma was sprayed all across the room. The firefight lasted for a minute before all the Covies were killed. Only one Spartan was down, he was knocked unconscience from the explosion of a plasma grenade. A noise was heard behind them, Sam turned around to see a gold elite with a plasma sword standing their. He swung at a Spartan, he dodged it but was hit in the face by the elites fist. He fell to the ground and didn't move the elite ran up to another and swung his sword. A piece of metal from the Spartan's suit fell to the ground as he screamed out in pain. He dove for cover as the elite moved toward Sam at a frightening speed. Sam started to fire but his clip was empty, he started to reload as the elite ran at him, bullets bouncing of his shield. Just as he loaded his rifle the elite knocked the gun from his hand and raised his sword and brought down at lighting speed.
