This is simply the first draft of what i hope can turn into a series of Halo fan-fics for me, please read/review and let me know on anything i can do to improve it. I'm welcome to all criticism both good and bad :)
Again, this is a ROUGH DRAFT which is the reason for the short length and abrupt ending, i kind of wanted to test the waters to see how other readers/writers reacted to what i wrote.
"Damn, I just won the lottery…" Jeremy thought how lucky he was to have come across what he was now surveying through his visor's magnified HUD. His partner Nikolai joined his side and marveled at the sight as well, it looked better in person than it had back in the briefing room several hours ago. An entire Covenant assembly platform dominated the valley floor, a ring of what looked like the high rise buildings of New Alexandria. Only here, they were clad in an opalescent coat of armor plating tinted in that infamous Covenant purple green hue. Most UNSC personnel, or any humans for that matter, would cower at this sight, knowing that their death must be within the hour if they were this close to an alien occupied base. Jeremy and Nikolai weren't "most" UNSC personnel, though, they were Headhunters. Special Forces teams consisting of two Spartan III's that had been given further training in stealth tactics, sabotage and demolition, and most importantly in surviving while deep behind enemy lines. While the big armadas, planetary defense platforms, and MAC toting warships back home were the UNSC's heavy hitting sledge hammers, the Headhunters were the deadly precise laser guided weapons of death. Teams like Jeremy and Nikolai were given high priority; high risk targets that often represented a weak spot in the Covenant Empire. Few planets had the massive amounts of raw materials needed to support one of these immense ship building structures, so the UNSC had to strike them down wherever they found them to keep the enemy at bay. Their current objective was to take out this assembly platform by any means necessary in an effort to buy the high command vital time in strengthening the defenses of the Inner Colonies.
Jeremy and Nikolai's elation at the discovery of their target took a half minute to dissipate as they took it all in. Now it was straight down to business, running final diagnostics on all the gear they may need. From their active-camouflage or "av-cam" armor components and their ever-present M7S Submachine Gun, to the hack/infiltration tac-pad given to them by the techs, every item of gear was checked and squared away. Their arrival at the objective meant that is was play time for two of humanity's most efficient killers.
