I got rid of it(My watch's time)
Inside Halo: Combat Evolved,
Halo's Control Center
"Hot damn!" I exclaimed, "You good at this hacking thing."
The Hunter smiled. Then, he held up the index. "Got it."
A voice floated up to us, from down below. "I am Louis Wu on HBO... Why can't my wife call me Lewis Wu? She calls me Louis Wu. Then again, Louis Wu might fit me better. Hehe... i am a genus. Muahahaha!!" His ramblings were cut short by a cough, probably his own.
We all looked over the edge. It was too dark to see to the bottom.
"This is a job for me Sniper Rifle," I announced, and zoomed in to x10 , with Night vision on.
"I see him! He's strapped to a Banshee; tight."
Suddenly, I felt a popping in me ears. The holo panels froze, and when I shot, there was no bullet pock on the floor.
"There," Said Frogblast, "I've frozen the game."
GLAD pushed me down.
"H_K! Noooo! What the fuck, GLAD!?" Walker had his pistol on GLAD's forehead.
"The game's frozen! He won't take any damage! He can fly back up here with Wu, then we can get the fuck outa here."
"The damage all catches up to you when it's back up," Yelled Walker, and he almost squeezed the trigger.
"Not if we all get to the next checkpoint before the game," They all jumped down, except for Walker.
I fell for probably 2000 FT, Then hit the ground rather hard. However, I felt nothing. Several seconds later, the others landed. When Frog did, the Earth shook rather hard. The word 'checkpoint' appeared, and I knew we made it.
"Louis?" We were about 10 Feet from the webmaster.
I got a good look at him, while he was pondering a reply. Several gashes were on his head and body, and blood dripped freely from at least 5 different areas.
His weapon, a Plasma Rifle, lay on the other side of the craft. "I am king of the monkeys," He replied. His eyes drooped.
"He's lost it," Offered up Elfster, and he picked up the Plasma Weapon, "H_K, snap him out of it. You good at that."
"With pleasure," I leveled my Assault Rifle, and sighted in on Wu's head.
Elfster hit the gun, swiveling it. "I said snap him out of it, not snap him!"
"Oh, Ok." I approached the Wu dude. In one swift motion, I blindsided him with the butt of my weapon.
"I am... Louis..." He was Ok.
I heard plasma fire, and looked up. Not only had the game restarted, but Covenant troops were coming from the entrance! And more, and more, and more of them.
Walker was holding them best he could, but it was evident he was in trouble.
I took out a knife, and cut the bindings on Louis. He wobbly stood up, and the group all moved to support him.
I jumped in the pilots' seat of the Banshee, and started the engines.
They roared to life. I quickly rose, and was soon on level with the bridge.
I saw Walker wave, then sighted in on the door. 12 Gold Elites, 17 Yellow Jackals, and two dozen Red Grunts were there, attempting to enter. Whenever one got too close, Walker gave it a pistol surprise.
I fired the Fuel Rod gun, wiping them all out. Walker ran under me, and flagged me down. "What is it?" I asked, from the hovering Banshee.
"I think I can rig Halo's teleporter grid to get us out of here. Where too?"
"Sidewinder," I said, thinking quickly.
"Ok. Give me cover fire while I work. Here comes more now!" Walker commenced on the holo-panel.
Just on schedule, 4 Hunters charged.
I gave them a little Fuel Rod surprise, and three went pouf. The other one returned fire, almost hitting me.
I fired the regular Plasma cannons, and the Hunter retreated behind his shield. Then, me Fuel Rods were ready, and I blew it to hell.
After another assault, the enemy fell back.
"Got it! Go tell the others," He said to me.
I motored back down to ground floor. "Get ready for teleport!" I commanded, then flew out the door, and above the pyramid thing.
I saw the bridge with the rest of the people, and headed for it.
I blasted most of the Wraiths from high above. The other 4 retreated.
Then, I set down in the trench. Pooman was my first sight.
"How the!? You took a hit! The Bridge! Fraging out!" I was speaking in a total fluster.
I picked up an overshield at the exact moment, but it didn't cover my legs in time."
"Well, at least you live..." I said, then said to the others, "Get ready to teleport to Sidewinder, Compliments of Walker."
I flew back to the control center.
The teleport began, and we were all enveloped in yellow light.
