Who cares? I'm about to be dead, anyway(My Watch's Time)
Inside Halo; Combat Evolved,
Helm's Deep
The Covenant had met the outer defenses, and quickly cleaned house. However, the Gunners took down 50 of them before they perished.
They then marched toward us, stopping abruptly 160 Meters from the Deeping Wall.
"Prepare to fire!" I shouted to my men, and they drew their weapons and took aim. I myself opted for my Sniper Rifle. Resting the barrel on the wall edge, I took aim at some Jackals and Grunts.
A single shot rang out, and a single pistol bullet hit a Red Grunt right between the eyes. It fell, and blue blood gushed out.
The Covies all watched the Grunt fall to the ground.
"HOLD FIRE!" I screamed at my Gunmen.
The Covenant stomped on the ground, louder and more frequent each time. A Golden Elite with a Plasma Sword stood on a small hill, and roared a throaty challenge.
"CHARGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!" His low pitch voice rumbled through the level, and all the Covies broke rank and ran towards us.
"HOLD!" I yelled, intending to wait until most of the Weapons could hit them. Right now, only Pistols and Sniper Rifles could hope to hit them.
The Enemy mostly didn't even shoot at the Garrison Holders, just ran, with weapons holstered, towards the wall.
"FIRE!!" I yelled, and a barrage of fire, from Magenta Needles to vapor trails of Sniper Rounds to LAAG Bullets, hit the enemy.
The enemy continued to fall, but more replaced them. They grew near.
80 Meters to wall... 75 Meters to wall... 70 Meters...
"Frag them all!!!" 500 Fragmentation Grenades flew into the path of the enemy.
The resulting explosions looked like a 50 Foot high wall of Fire, catching many, many enemies in it's deadly plumes.
But, then the fires died out. The Ground in front of(And in many cases, under) the Enemies' feet was no longer snowy; rather a dark black color, with many flaming corpses riddling the ground.
Dispite this, the enemy pressed on.
Many reached the Deeping Wall, where the Tanks couldn't hit them.
About 30 Covenant Ladders were being pushed up to the wall.
"LADDERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I exclaimed.
I drew my Assault Rifle, and almost everyone on The Wall drew Shotguns. I used the butt of my AR to knock down a ladder.
It fell into the sea of Enemies, and squished about 2 Dozen.
The Enemies had begun to climb the ladders, and already several Elites and Jackals were in close quarters with my Troops.
The Enemies got their weapons amply ready, and when they were up, they commenced to chew out my men.
Me and Elfster were fighting back to back. I emptied a clip on a Red Elite, and it fell with a cry. I heard a shotgun pump, and two Grunts simultaneously fell to the floor, bullet pocks all over them.
Meanwhile, a Group of Covenant were putting unlit Plasma Grenades in the storm drain on the Deeping Wall.
After about 200 Plasmas were grouped, an Elite armed a Grenade, and ran towards the drain.
Skavenger noticed this, and yelled to me, "Bring him down, Hunter_Killer!"
I saw it, and made ready my SR. Aiming, I sent a bullet straight into it. It kept going, only about 30 Meters from the Grenades.
A full clip went into it, but it still managed to hurl itself into the Grenade group.
The Plasma went off.
The cataclysmic explosion that occurred sent a large section of the wall into the air as large pieces of flaming rubble.
A Full Platoon(50) of our boys were on that section when it went, as well as 8 Dozen Covenant. None survived.
The pieces of stone fell mainly onto the attackers, killing a full score of them.
"Oh, shit," I said, and ran towards the huge breach in the wall.
"They have breached the wall," Yelled Mainevent, and a squad of my men moved up to the breach.
The enemy charged into the inside, and I was at the head of the squad.
"CHARGE!!" I ordered, and brandished an Energy Sword from a fallen Elite.
My men and the Enemy ran towards each other. Battle cries from both sides filled my ears.
We made contact, and clashed. I ran my sword through a Red Elite, and swiped a blow that toppled 3 Jackals.
Elfster was on the wall, and grabbed a piece of Metal. He pushed himself, on top of the metal, down a flight of stairs going to the middle of the breach, like Legolas did in the Movie.
His twin SMGs were blazing all the way down.
I had just sent a Jackal to Hell, when he arrived.
The metal flew into a Golden Elite's skull, and caved it in.
"He makes an entrance, gotta give him that," I said.
