Halo 2: The Strike Begins
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Halo characters or vehicles.
Prologue: The Longsword fighter launched from the bay at maximum burn, flying through space for its life. Behind it the ringworld Halo was ripped to pieces killing everything in its path. There were only two ships leaving the ravaged world. The master chief's lone Longsword, and a pelican containing ODST Hell Jumpers and a single humanoid combat flood. Yet unbeknownst to them there was an even more dangerous being aboard their small craft, the infection form of the flood, just waiting to take over the ship once everyone was asleep.
Chapter 1: Landing
Finally after three years of space flight in the tiny Longsword Master Chief was finally home, he had reached earth. He was coming down in a massive city on the Asian continent; it now looked nothing like it had when he had left to combat the covenant. The city was now floating over 1,000 meters above the surface of the continent. The chief landed his fighter in an abandoned parking lot on the outskirts of the city, gazing up at the gargantuan structures rising up above him. As he looked around this new city he realized something was wrong; it was deserted! He immediately began to search for any sign of life or a vehicle. He entered a house and was washed in an oddly familiar scent, death. The smell of death was everywhere. There were no dead bodies to speak of but still the smell lingered. Master Chief continued through the house, when he reached the stairs he heard an all too familiar sound, it was the sound of plasma fire. He dashed to a window to see what the hell was going on. Outside there was a mad dash of covenant Elites running down the street in fear of a single being chasing them, it was the combat form of Corporal Lance O'Rielly, one of the men of the surviving pelican.
The chief, being unarmed, didn't dare to attack the covenant or the flood. He rummaged through the house looking for any type of weapon. Finally he came upon a gun rack and smashed the glass out to retrieve a Semi-auto S&W pistol and an AK-47. He then charged down the stairs and out the door to kill the covenant forces and the lone flood if he had to.
The covenant keep running and shooting back but they can't keep it up. Behind them one of the explosive flood wobbled out of a side ally right into the path of an elite. The unfortunate elite bumped into him and turned around, but it is too late the flood has already started the detonation. It explodes sending infection forms everywhere. They attack the elites and convert them into combat forms shortly there after.
The chief saw a single, familiar vehicle coming down the road, it was a warthog loaded with marines. When the marines got a little closer the chief decided to take action he jumped out the window letting his shields take the brunt of the impact and began firing with the pistol. He took down two of the flood in about five seconds but the others leaped out of the way of the chief's assault. The other three flood turned and went flying at the chief; he whipped out his AK and opened fire. Only one of the flood survived this latest barrage. It charged the chief and had its head blown off by a stray bullet from the LAG gun on the hog.
Sorry this is so short this is my first post and some of my other posts will probably be this short as well.
