Lone Odst
His squad was dead, all of them dead. One second they were there then, BAM. All gone. It must have been a plasma grenade or something, he honestly didn't know, but he was the only one left.
He ran behind a tree, plasma blasts from the grunts and elites trailing behind him. It was a miracle he wasn't hit.
His cover was getting chipped away by the second. Quickly he grabbed a grenade and threw it into the mass of Covenant. It detonated throwing fragments everywhere. He heard screams of pain soon after. He glanced behind the cover, only to see that their was more covenant than before.
Noticing his cover was about to be gone, he quickly ran to another tree, shooting at the mass of Covenant along the way. Nearly getting hit by plasma.
Out of breath, he made it to the next tree. He started to blind-fire at the enemy, screams of pain told him he must have killed some grunts. Grabbing his last grenade without looking, he threw it without looking, praying that it would find its mark. Screams of pain answered those prayers.
He didn't try to radio for help, because he knew that the covvies had a jammer up.
He knew that to survive, he needed to make to the last extraction point on the planet. Said extraction point was a kilometer away.
Noticing his cover was being stripped away, he ran. He ran to the direction of the extraction point. With adrenaline coursing through his veins, he ran faster t han he ever had before.
He must have been the luckiest man alive, but he ran for 500 meters without getting hit. Stopping to catch his breath, he noticed two banshees in the air flying towards him. He quickly dropped down, pretending that he was dead. Either by luck or incompetence by the pilots, he avoided being detected. He got up and started to quickly jog the rest of the way.
Coming upon what must have been a shipyard, he saw a pelican loading up survivors. Quickly he ran towards it, hoping they still had room for him. Getting on board he spotted an open seat and quckily sat down. A few minutes later the pelican took off head towards the nearby docked cruiser, UNSC Forever after.
