HALO: Attack OF THE BANSHEES PART 2
(In the prototype test facility on Earth...)
"H.Q this is Mike Niner Niner Zero I'm having some trouble with this aircraft. It seems I'm no longer in control over." And that's where the trouble began.
"The controls have malfunctioned and I have lost all controls. The aircraft seems to be flying on its own. It won't let me eject. I'm trapped, requesting help over." That was pilot Gonzales over the radio in distress.
"Roger Mike Niner Niner Zero, we are looking into the situation now. Keep talking to us son." Replied H.Q
(Meanwhile in H.Q...)
"Get the engineers working on this problem tell them to examine the recovered Banshee and scan it thoroughly for any foreign objects. If there's a nail out of place follow the protocol and destroy every one of them!" ordered Capt. Keys to the engineers. He was furious that the prototype model was not working properly. His plan was about to go corrupt because he didn't give the order to scan it before cloning it. And now if anything went wrong, he would not only lose his job but would be held responsible for the death of thousands. He had to fix things before they got out of hand.
"Sir, the Banshee is coming straight at us." It was the navigation director; he had the Banshee on radar headed straight for them.
"Sir if we don't evacuate now the Banshee will crash into us and destroy this base."
"Don't we have any missiles in this base or something?" Insisted Capt. Keys.
"No sir this base was specifically built for TOP SECRET projects and if we had weaponry in hear we could be detected in a heart beat. Remember, the government doesn't know the existence of this base."
"OK, give the order to evacuate immediately!" You could see the fear in the captain's eyes as he gave the order. He had already lost one base that he was going to be in command of; he didn't want to lose one that he was in command of.
He and his men ran as fast as they could through the narrow hallways. The key to not getting detected in a TOP SECRET base was to make it as small as possible and have a radar jamming device to not get detected.
"Everybody out of the lab the base is going to blow!" The captain yelled to all the scientists and engineers in the lab. They all hurried out the door towards the exit.
"How much time do we have commander?" asked Capt. Keys.
"Approximately 15 seconds sir." He replied abruptly.
They were 2 15 feet long hallways away from the exit. It was like a stampede of men in that hallway. It was their only was to safety.
"10 seconds," said the commander in panic.
"9, 8, 7, 6, 5," he was counting down the time till they all die of live. Only 5 seconds were left till the Banshee crashed into the building killing them if they weren't out by then. They were now only the corner away from the exit.
"4, were not gonna make it sir!" he yelled to Capt. Keys.
There were two seconds left until they all died. They were a few feet away from the door but Capt. Keys was the last person in the stampede. Three seconds left and the first few hundred workers were out of the building. Two seconds left and three fourths were out and a safe distance away. But Capt. Keys was still inside.
BOOM! The building had exploded with Capt. Keys and a few hundred of his men still inside.
"Sir Capt. Keys is dead, again!" screamed one of the commandoes.
"Don't worry if one of his cells is still alive, we could clone it and he will be back, like what we did when he was infected by the flood." replied another.
All the survivors got into the Warthogs and drove off to the base in sector Lima Mike Whiskey. They had just left when one of the commandoes spotted something.
"Hey look at that, it looks like a swarm of birds," he looked through his binoculars and saw a swarm of Banshees coming towards them.
"It's the Banshees; they weren't destroyed in the explosion! They're following us, come on man floor it!" he said to the driver in panic. You could see the terror in his eyes as he said it too. Every one looked back to see the banshees coming and that they had started to fire at them.
"Who the hell is piloting them?"
"They have artificial intelligence, the covenant troops must have upgraded them to fly in combat without the use of additional troops. They were specifically designed to attack humans, so now they a attacking us," replied one of the scientists.
"Oh great, we'll have to fight them without M.C!" yelled one of the other commandoes.
(INTERMISSION)
(The Flintstones theme song melody)
Spartan,
Meet the Spartan,
He is a lonely hi-tech man hating covies.
From the, world of Halo,
He is a script right out of some sifi-movie.
Let's fight,
With the Spartan, to kill the alien covies.
When you're with the Spartan
We'll have a big bang boom,
We'll have a big bang boom,
We'll have a big bang boom time.
Some day,
Maybe he will, kill the
Food nipple sucking covies
When you're with the Spartan
We'll have a big bang boom,
We'll have a big bang boom,
We'll have a big bang boom time.
(BACK TO THE STORY)
The commandoes were afraid, they had never fought a battle with just Banshees, and not just a few but more than a thousand of them attacking at once. They loaded up their guns and got ready for battle. One of the commandoes from each of the Warthogs got into the gunner seat and loaded it up for additional firepower. They were ready now, they were ready to fight and die. They were all in fear of the astounding number of the Banshees. They were coming in fast and WOOSH WOOSH, the first few flew past them with great speed they were getting ready for a dive bomb on the humans. They pulled up after getting ahead of the Warthogs and kept going up.
"Alright men, get ready, when they come back down again fire away! We might all die but I want you to remember, you guys are the few, the proud, and the brave. You guys are the only marines that can save the Earth along with M.C, so fight well."
They all rapped their fingers around their guns and aimed at the Banshees that were starting to come down.
"Wait for it, wait for it, and wait for it, FIRE!"
All the marines pulled the triggers on their guns and the bullets sprayed out like water from sprinklers, only faster and more lethal. They shot up at the Banshees like see gulls do at food. They tore through the Banshees armor damaging its systems and disabling it. But that was only the first out of thousands. The others came in faster and changed courses, as if they had learned the mistake of the first Banshee that got shot down. They banked a hard left and started to shoot at the last Warthog in the formation. The gunner of the Warthog unleashed the fury of the anti-air grappling gun which tore through the Banshees armor like a pencil through tissue paper. The Banshee crashed to the ground with a big boom nearly flipping over the Warthog. The gunner fell out of the Hog to the ground. One of the Banshees saw him and ran straight into him. The others continued the attack on the other Warthogs. But the marines had a surprise of their own, Plasma Grenades! They threw them at the Banshees and watched them blow. But the Banshees quickly learned from the others mistakes. If they got stuck with a plasma grenade, they would get as close to a warthog as possible so that when the grenade explodes, the marines would die also. They were getting smarter but the minute.
"Sir I'm calling for back up," said one of the marines
"This distress goes out to all marine bases in sector Lima Mike Whiskey, this is marine Kenny McCormick, we are sustaining heavy fire from the covenant Banshees, requesting back over. If anyone can hear me we are sustaining heavy fire requesting backup over! Why don't you answer?!?!?"
At that moment, a charged cannon from one of the banshees hit the communication Warthog, killing everyone, including the communication specialist Kenny.
"Oh my god, you killed Kenny! You bastards!" one of Kenny friends said as he fired at the Banshees. The Warthog squad was doomed. If someone didn't help them in time, they would all die.
