Chapter 1: Falling from the divines

Private Connor 'Ranger' Rodgers sat on a bench. His polarized helmet sitting next to him. On his lap was a large sniper rifle constructed by the UNSC. In his right hand he held an empty magazine for said rifle while the other held bullets that he was placing into it. Around his waist was his UNSC SMG and standard issue pistol. A small knife holster was on his chest with a knife inside it. Under the bench was his standard issue backpack.

As he placed the last round into the mag he sighed and placed it on his lap. He then reached behind his armour at his neck and pulled out his dog tags. He looked at the UNSC logo on them and sighed yet again. He had been at war with the covenant for 5 years now. Many called him a veteran. But he didn't think that about himself. All he saw was a man of war; a man ready to go into combat for the good of not his friends and family, but his species.

The door at the end of the hall opened and he looked to see 4 other UNSC soldiers in his squad walking along towards. "Hey Ranger, we got to drop in 5. So hurry to your pod." One said as they all walked up to the wall behind him. On the wall were large pod like devises that the UNSC used to drop troops into combat from low orbit. Connor sighed and slammed the sniper clip into the rifle. As he stood up one of his comrades, a girl by the name of Emma put her left hand on his shoulder.

"I got a spare. Take it and make sure to kill some elites with it if you need to." She said as Connor looked down at her right hand to see her holding a cylinder type device in it. He took it from her hand and looked at it in his hand. He smiled and turned back to Emma and nodded his thanks. She smiled and walked over to her pod. He leaned under the bench and picked up his backpack and swung it on his back. He placed the cylinder shaped device on his waist next to his pistol and heaved the rifle into his hands. With one hand he reached down towards the bench and picked up his helmet. He raised it to his head and put it on.

As he did this the helmets HUD booted up to show his ammo count and grenade count. He smiled again when he saw he was at full ammo. He quickly walked around the back of the bench he had been sitting on and walked up to one of the pods. The pod had a small metal seat inside it.

Connor placed himself down on the seat and leaned back as the pod door closed. He sighed yet again as video feeds came up of his fellow's soldier's faces. All covered up by the same helmets that Connor was wearing. Suddenly the pod began to shake as it began to hear a beep.

'5…4…3…2…1…' Connor thought. As it hit one Connor breathed in a heavy breath. '0'

BOOM

Connor felt a large pressure on him as he and his pod began to fall towards the planet. As the pods windows depolarized he saw hundreds of the same type of pod falling towards the ground. He watched as green and blue balls of light flew upwards towards them. He watched as one hit a pod and it exploded into pieces at it was melted. 'Damn…' he watched as covenant fighters, Banshees, flew past firing into the pods. He looked outside to see one of the banshees wings clip a pod, sending the banshee going out of control… and right towards him. Connor braced as the banshee flew into his pod and then white light consumed him.

CRASH

Connor opened his eyes. He noticed that the screens that showed his teammates were all broken and the windows that were polarized broken and cracked. He breathed heavily as he felt relief that he hand made it to the ground.

HIIIISSSS….BOOM

The pod door exploded, flying forward a few feet. As he stepped out, SMG in hand and ready to kill, he noticed he saw something he didn't expect.

He saw what looked like wooden houses and large stone walls with stone towers dotted in them. But that wasn't what surprised him. It was the fact there were men and women wearing strange clothes. Some wore red armour with that looked like ancient Roman soldiers. While the others wore blue furred armour and clothing. And all staring at him.

"What is that thing?!" One of the Roman looking men shouted. That's when Connor noticed that they had swords and shields. 'Oh crap…'

Suddenly something landed on one of the stone towers next to the weirdly dressed people. And someone shouted something that Connor thought was only in myth.

"Dragon!"

'Bollocks!' Connor thought as he sprinted for his life down a path. Following one of the red coloured dressed men. 'What the fuck have I got myself into?' he skidded to a halt as the dragons tail crushed the man he was following. The dragon stared at him with burning eyes

"Dovahkiin…." It hissed.

"What. The. Fuck." Connor muttered under his helmet as the dragon swung his tail at him. 'Oh crap!' Connor jumped and dived over the tail. Landing in a roll. "I am outta here." He was now sprinting towards what looked like the main building's door as the dragon spewed fire behind him. 'Damn, damn, damn, damn…' Connor repeated in his head.

Connor shoved the door shut and pushed a large wooden cabinet in front of the door. When he finished he sighed as he leaned forward onto the cabinet, his hands making sure he didn't fall over. He gave a small laugh at the fact he was still alive and turned to lean on the cabinet with his back to the door; he closed his eyes as he did it. When he opened it he noticed one of the red armoured people with red hair pointing a sword at him. "Who are you?" the Man asked. Connor just sighed.

"I'm Private Connor 'Ranger' Rodgers. I'm an ODST…"
