Alice, Chief, Kurt, Kelly, Linda, Mike, Zoe are headed to the covenant corvette (to blow it up) via pelican
Mike: "We're all most there, get your ammo!"
Then they all stand up and get the following weapons:
Alice, Kurt, Linda- Assault Rifles, SMGs
Chief-DMR
Kelly, Zoe-Shotgun
Mike-Sniper Rifle
When they land at the corvette, they jump out of the pelican, landing on the topside landing pad and went inside.
Chief: "When we get inside split up. Zoe, Mike clear the hanger. Alice, Kurt clear the vehicle storage. Linda, Kelly you're with me, we'll clear the Bridge."
Alice, Kurt, Linda, Kelly, Mike, Zoe: "OK"
Chief: "Let's go!"
Like what Chief had said they all split up. When Mike and Zoe reached the hanger, they snuck up behind an elite standing at the top platform, they pulled out their knives, and then Mike stabbed the elite in the back, while Zoe stabbed the elite in the neck.
When Alice and Kurt got to the vehicle storage they went on top of a large covenant crate that held 4 wraiths (2 beside each other and one on top of the 2 on the bottom). When Linda, Kelly, and Chief reached the Bridge, they crept up behind a weapon crate.
Mike: "Me and Zoe are in position."
Alice: "We're ready."
Chief: "OK, open fire on my mark...OK, open fire!"
(They were communicating through in helmet communicators) Then they all started firing at all the covenant they could see. After about 40 minutes of intense fire...
Kurt: "CLEAR!"
Mike: "No living covenant here!"
Chief: "OK. Alice, Kurt meet us in the 2nd hall leaving the bridge, then we'll get to the hanger,"
Alice, Kurt: "GOT IT!"
Chief: "Zoe, Mike make sure that hanger is COVENANT free when we get there!"
Mike: "10-4, Chief."
So then Mike and Zoe where just standing there waiting for the others
Mike: "Something doesn't feel right."
Zoe: "Just relax, besides there's not a single grunt on my radar!"
After a while, the others haven't arrived yet.
Mike: "Chief, You still there?"
Chief: "Yes, I'm still here. Just hold tight, we're almost there."
Mike: "Just keep your com-link on."
After about 5 minutes still the others weren't there. But just then Mike yells out "ZOE, DUCK!"Then he pushes Zoe to the side, and she drops he shotgun. And then, she looks at him and says: "What was for?" then Mike drops his sniper rifle then fall to the ground(knees then falls to the ground)then Zoe sees and energy sword then a Field Marshal shows up
Zoe: "Chief! Field Marshal... Killed Mike
Chief: "We're right here! Hold on!"
When they enter the hanger they look at the top platform and see an elite Field Marshall wielding an energy sword and Zoe who is at the edge of the platform on the ground.
Chief: "TAKE OUT THAT FIELD MARSHALL!"
Then they all start firing at the Field Marshall then Chief and Kelly jump to the top then started melee attacking the elite.
After they killed the elite, Chief ordered Kurt to check Mike's vitals (just to check) "Kurt, check his vitals" then Kurt knelt down and checked his vitals "nothing, none, zip, nada, no vitals what so ever"
Zoe: "This is my fault, that energy sword was meant for me"
Alice: "It's not your fault Zoe, he saved you"
Kurt: "Hold on, I'll call for us an evac(evacuation). We still need to get of this thing.
Sgt. Forge, we need an evac"
Sgt. Forge: "On my way"
Kelly: "Hold on. How did Mike know that elite was there?
Cortana: "I can answer that. Mike-629's helmet has a new prototype radar that allows the user to see spec-ops units (Special-Operation) covenant or UNSC.
After 23minutes of waiting, a pelican landed in the hanger then Sgt. Forge came out
Sgt. Forge: "Is everyone OK?"
Linda: "Not everyone. Mike sacrificed himself to save Zoe."
Sgt. Forge: "Such a shame. He was one of our best Spartan III. Anyways, get his body on board and let's get out of this dump. Chief, did you plant the bomb?"
Chief: "Done"
So they got Mike's body on board and left the corvette
When they got a safe distance away...
Kurt: "May I?" then Chief passes him a detonater
Chief: "Go ahead"
Kurt: "3...2...1... Blowing the charge" then he presses the button on the detonater
Then they hear a big BOOM! the the pelican shakes for 5 minutes then stops...
Epilogue:
Lord Hood: "We are gathered here today to honor Mike-629. He was KIA while on a mission. He sacrificed himself to protect his teammate, comrade, squad mate or...umm... uhhh...Basically he saved his friend ,Zoe-963, from a energy-sword wielding Field Marshall by pushing her out of the way and taking that energy-sword through his back..."
After the funeral ceremony they had a 21-gun salute presented by a marine squad
