Prologue
I grab my kit and place it on my back. I grab the magnum and put it in the holster on my thigh. I grab a assault rifle and place it a case beside me. I grab a sniper rifle and place it in the case with the assault rifle. I place a shotgun a rocket launcher a Spartan laser and ammo for all the guns in the case. I grab a dozen batteries for the Spartan laser and place them in the case. I grab a dozen spike plasma incendiary frag and tesla grenades each.
I close the case and place it in my HEV and hop in my seat. The door closes and the pod moves around as I get ready for the drop. I see the other ODST HEVs drop and my HEV follows. I follow procedure piloting my HEV and a Covenate loyalist cruiser jumps into slipspace. My HEV gets caught by the slipspace jump and gets dragged into the slipspace rupture.
I hold on tight to my seat and I feel my HEV crash into a building made out of hard metal. I get knocked unconscious from the impact. So am I dead or just captured by the covenant.
