Halo: The Final Battle For Earth
A Halo Fanfic
Time Unknown, November 2, 2552. Sol System, above planet Earth.
The space above Earth boiled and suddenly pulled apart. The tip of an elongated ship silently pulled out of the slipspace rupture into the midst of a raging battle between the defending UNSC forces and the Covenant invaders. Plasma and floating metal littered the space where the battle raged. Plasma engulfed the UNSC ships and the Orbital 'Super' MAC guns tore apart the bulbous Covenant ships.
The Master Chief felt the familiar feeling of a slipspace-to-normal-space transition and looked up. According to his mission clock, he had fallen asleep for approximately 3 hours during the slipspace jump. The Spartan looked around and remembered that he was in the Forerunner ship. He heard static on a COM frequency followed by a young officer's voice,
"We've got a new contact, unknown classification."
A gruff voice replied, "It isn't one of ours, take it out." The Spartan recognized the voice of Fleet Admiral Terrence Hood. He locked on to the frequency and stated,
"This is Spartan-117, can anyone hear me? Over."
Fleet Admiral Hood looked up and surprise. Flames licked at some of the control panels, and the control center of Cairo Station was in disarray.
"Isolate that signal! Master Chief? You mind telling me what you're doing on that ship?"
"Sir, finishing this fight." The Spartan resolutely said. "Sir, there is a Prophet on board. I'm gonna take him out. I need you to hold your fire until I can kill him. If I'm not done in 30 minutes, send this ship to hell."
"Alright, Master Chief, but things aren't looking too good here. The Covenant sent back-up, lots of it. I don't know how long we can hold here. Good luck, Master Chief." The Admiral closed the COM channel and rubbed his eyes. The last few hours wore him out. It was a miracle that Cairo Station wasn't turned into molten slag. He shut out his fatigue. There were Covenant bastards waiting to be killed. And he wasn't going to keep him waiting.
Please read and review...or the Covenant might find Earth.
