Note To Readers:
Hello! This will have a nice twist, for those of you who are following along... ;)
Location: Great Lakes Plaza, Chicago, USA, North America, Earth, Sol System, Alpha Quadrant
Time: 2551
The entire Plaza had bodies, Human bodies. Only half were UNSC Personnel, the others were clad to suggest they were in the wrong place, wrong time. Several Worthogs and a Scorpion Tank were on the scene, too. Most were upturned, but a Worthog and the Scorpion were right side up, but on fire.
The smell of dead bodies hung horribly strong in the air. Jonathan almost gagged, it was so foul.
A single sleeping Hunter was on a crate that was not blown up, or flaming.
Jonathan had rage like no other. Those b*****s would pay for the massacre! He grabbed His Plasma Sword, switched the deadly blade on, and charged, yelling his head off.
The Hunter awoke, with quite a start indeed.
He looked for his Fuel Rod Gun, but he must have lost it in the... the Hunter chuckled, battle. It wasn't a battle. The infidels barely resisted. Ha!
He found a Plasma Sword on the ground. Thinking of bloody intentions, he took the sword.
He had gotten down from the crate, and activated the Plasma Blade. "I kill!" The Covie yelled, as he charged.
Two Marines opened fire with several rounds from their ARs, until Lance said, "Stop! Those aren't gona penetrate his defenses!" The Marines ceased firing.
"I'm gona cut you up like a Turkey at Thanksgiving!" Jonathan yelled, as he put his Blade in a position to swipe an uppercut.
"Bring it on!" Said the alien, still trying out the English Language. He assumed a Defensive Stance.
The Blades made contact, sending sparks into the air.
Jonathan quickly swung a horizontal swipe. The Hunter countered, nanoseconds before Jonathan's Blade hit. More Sparks flew.
"You better than I expected," Jonathan noted aloud.
"Ha! You have seen nothing, vile infidel!" The Hunter responded, and began a series of powerful swings at the Admiral.
Jonathan jumped out of the way. "Ha! You can have your toy back, you twit!" Jonathan taunted. He drove his blade into the Hunter's Belly, then whipped around and Swiped off the Covie's head. Orange blood sprayed out and hit Jonathan. "Ick," He remarked.
The decapitated Hunter fell, dropping to it's knees, dead.
Jonathan turned off his Plasma Sword, and holstered the weapon.
"Yah! Go, Sir!" A Sergeant said.
Jonathan smiled, then became serious. "They have not began to pay," He said, in a solemn tone.
Suddenly, a dead Covie caught his eye. Hmmmmm....... You would think there would be dead Covenant too, but that one, and the other, he added with a quick smirk, then returned to thought. Are the only dead ones... "Oh, My..." Jonathan said, aloud.
A Marine heard. "Sir," He said, "What's wrong? That **** is dead..." He then saw the reason for Jonathan's discontent. A Jackal was lying dead, with Plasma scorches on several places. "Plasma was Covenant! No other Marine used a Plasma weapon before..." He was talking aloud again. "Wait! The Master Chief, the only Spartan III Soldier that made it, turned in a report on his mission that went awry on a Ring-World known as Halo... in it, he mentioned, several times, a parasitic life-form he called the 'Flood.' It said they took over most of the Marines and some Covies on the Planet, after released. They harnessed the Race's weapons for use against their creators... but, how could they get to Earth? Last seen, they was hundreds of Light years away..."
The Admiral was startled. "How did you know that!? That report was Classified, Level 12! Only me and several other high-ranking officers saw that report!"
The Marine grinned slightly as he spoke. "Why sir, I delivered that report."
Suddenly, a Grunt was seen, and what came from his mouth was the strangest thing ever said in the Great War: "Don't shoot! We come in peace!"
The Admiral drew his pistol, which he got from a dead Marine.
"Can you understand me?" The Grunt said, it's arms raised above it's head.
"Indeed. Peace!? Why!?" The Admiral responded.
"It's a long story, If you'll hear it."
"Stand down, Marines." The Admiral began to ponder.
"But, sir..." A Marine said, "We don't know if it's the truth... many Covenant lies have been seeped from the Ashes of Colony Worlds, Cities, and Even..." There was a long pause, then he Glared at the Grunt, "Earth Battles."
"Please, hear us out," The Grunt said, in a squeaky voice.
"Ok, We might have peace."
TO BE CONTINUED...
Ok, I'd appreciate any thoughts or ideas in the 'Comments' Section... Thanks! (^_^)
