CHAPTER 1
Will sat under the red light of the pelican. Almost Every one of the people who had been with him when they got in the Elephant are either now dead or fighting for their own in the Hazardous landscape of Africa. He remained in the Pelican remembering the scene of chaos happening in the Elephant. He remembered Sergeant Higer telling him to take cover in the Elephant tank while he drove. There had been about 10 other Marines and ODSTS in with him. The Elephant tank was ripping through the Sahara as loud as possible. Everyone sat or stood on the tank waiting for something to happen. It was about 30 minutes later when the Marine manning the turret shouted out, "We got Banshees!" before anyone was ready an explosion hit the deck killing two soldiers, "Holy Crap! Turrets, TURRETS!" Someone had shouted.
From the Back view Will had seen two Spectres drive by then turn around, "Spectres!" Will had shouted diving behind the short wall in the middle of the Elephant's lower deck.
Several shots went passed him and a dead ODST rolled down past the wall. He could hear the turrets on the Elephant go down one by one and the noises end one by one until there were only three people left on the tank. Will took a charge past the wall gripping his Assault rifle tight. He saw one of the approaching Spectres still along side it and shooting. Sergeant Higer ran out ducking for cover, "GET OUT OF HERE!" He shouted to them, and right as he said that one of the remaining banshees shot a plasma rocket and hit him of his feet taking of his legs and leaving behind a mess of blood. HE had told another ODST To drive while he gave instructions.
Will ran up the stairs up to the second level of the Elephant. Will ran to the side of the Elephant look at the Spectre. It was then it backed up and then floored it and crashed onto the First level of the Elephant. It crashed into the small wall running over a Marine and making small explosions. The Three Brutes who had been driving the Spectre got out. The Driver took out his Brute Mauler and cautiously walked up to the second level. When he saw Will he dropped his gun and charged viciously at Will like a lion when it sees it's prey. Will felt stunned. He was about to be violently ripped limb from limb. He dodged the Brute, the only way he could. He went flying off the Elephant (Fortunately into a River) But then a thought came to mind… If he just fell into a river, where was the Elephant? HE looked over shocked to see it half submerged. But here were other worries. The Brute Now had his Mauler Back and was jumping into the water. Will climbed on shore and equipped his assault rifle, ready for anything. Then, suddenly, came the brute out of the water, and he had the mauler.
Will opened fire sending bullets into the Brute's Stomach. The Brute screamed in pain and then attempted a shot at Will but his pain overwhelmed him and he missed. Will Shot once more this time sending the Brute to his grave. The other brutes were to busy killing the survivors on the Elephant at the time.
He ran into the Jungle and took out his contact military phone, "Bengal Squad this Is Private Will Hauning, my group is dead, I repeat brutes are swarming our Tank.
