Halo Return: 2
-chapter start-
Serria B312 sighed, yesterday was quite a hectic day he just got on infinity and sent to action quite quickly, without even a proper time to settle in, he got up, or more of he got out of his cot, and got on his Armor by hand which good news for him he was able to do alone seeing as the Arms of Infintiy were designed for GEN2 MJOLNIR, while his was technically GEN1. He walked out of the room fully armored and sighed, he wasn't hungry, he may just go train in a war game sim against robots, hopefully his personal settings weren't deleted.
He walked into the War-sim and came to the Computer and pressed the button, and found Preset games, he scrolled down and found one he was looking for :Noble survival: B312 hummed as he pressed the buttion, and suddenly he was standing on the launch Platform of Azod shipyard on Reach a Pelican leveling over the platform As Captain Jacob Keyes pressed an ear piece "Cruser adjusting heading to the autumn, Noble 4 I need fire on that Cruiser or were not getting out of here do you copy?" He asked ' I have your window sir.' Emile said and no matter how many times he played this either mentally or Eletronicly. B312 always had a tear in his eye for a brother and a loyal Spartan,
B312 in slung his DMR as the rest of the conversation was a blur suddenly the sounds of propelled plasma hit against the Escort pelican and sent down to the landing pad. B312 jumped to his stomach so he didn't get blow up by the explosion as B312 looks over to see the Phamtom hovering over the Gun 'son of a bitch' the in day B312 thought as he went to covere Emile but was forced to duck by Plasma Cannon fire, he looked back to see the blue blade of a energy sword when suddenly the iconic blast of a shotgun and the figure holding the Plasma blade was blue and collapsed with pecies of Glass flying everywhere suddenly Emile-A239 walked out pumped his shotgun and fired again killing the Sangheili under him, "Who's next?" He asked as another come's up from behind him and stabs Emile in the chest as he groans he pulls out his kuiki. And yelled Turing around to face the Sangheili "I'm ready! How 'bout you!?" He yelled as he stabbed the knife into the Elite killing him as they fell as Emile died.
Suddenly Captain Keys amd his pelican flew over, "lutetanate Get aboard we got to get the hell out of here!" One of the marines said. "Negative I have the gun. Good luck sir." B312 callsign Noble Six walked away, "good luck to you Spartan." Keys Said solumoly.
B312 fouhpght his way up to the mass cannon and found Emile's corpses and after taking his tags, he climbed up on the mass cannon and started to shoot out the phantom's when suddenly the hologram faded as another group of Spartan IV's walked in, as Fireteam Xi were in to train. "Oh Fire team Crimson I didn't expect you here I'm sorry." Commander Jane said in apology's B312 didn't say anything and waved her off. "it's fine." He said "hey I've heard from around the crew you were pretty good on that last mission am I right?" The Leader Said, "knock it off Andrea, we all know the first mission is toned down so that they get there shoes wet, the next one will really put him to the test, if he doesn't die that is." The leader smiled.
" hey how about a little sim just to get you use to the actual fight us being vets we will give you a challenge." Another of Fireteam said, ' yea right a challange, please I won't even sweat, but I guess I can figure out the competition, here,' B312 thought as he shrugged "sure why not." He said
As the simulator powered up the teams were chosen. With Crimson being the only one of his team was able to keep the black Covert Armor, while Fireteam Xi being color coded the same anyways also remained the same of White and Orange, each in Recrute Armor. The leader being of Enforcer armor.
B312 picked up a DMR and an Assult rifle as the other's chose theire loadouts A magnum, assult rifle, a Sniper, Pistol, a Shotgun, Assult rifle, and finally Sepresser, magnun,
The timer went off and the map spawned to look like The Pit, ' fun, close to home.' B312 Said
Fireteam Xi looked around shocked ' what the? I've never seen an area like this,' one said "stay sharp you know what to do get in formation." The Fireteam Leader, snapped as they formed a line, when the timer counted Down to zero the Assult, Pistol, Suppressor Pistol and Shotgun Rifle ran forward as the sniper jumped to find high ground.
Andrea cover the left! Jack, flank right, Xion, with me as we head up the middle." Commander Jane said as the Spartan IV's headed and covered the area's of the map, unaware to them B312 was in the shadows he looked at his objective, 'elemimate All hostial's one life.' It read " sounds easy" B312 Said as he dipped into the shadow's,
Commander Jane and Xion were back to back, on a ledge, " god damn where is he?" Xion said "cut the chatter we don't want him to over hear us on public coms." Jane said as he checked the corner "clear move up." She said as Xion moved to The next wall Jane followed,
On the otherside of the map, B312 looked around the corner and nearly got his head taken off by a bolt from a Sniper 'Damn it' B312 hissed.
Xion and Jane froze "sniper fire, looks like Andrea found him, let's move to intercept." Jane said, as they ran off.
B312 his behind the wall as a bullet wizzed past him ' close' he thought As he unsheathed his knife and used it to look for the target, he found it, easily, ' alright now seems looking down the scope, which means,' B312 was stopped as he caught blips of Moving on the radar, ' they've figured out where I am, I have to move, so then.' He said as he actives his flashlight and beamed it into the knife,
The light caught on the reflective surface and blinded Andrea, "damn it!" She hissed as she squuezed off another accidental round ' four.' B312 counted as he knew he had an opening he turned around and rushed out,
No longer blinded Andrea tracked her target. And was about to squeeze the trigger, ' click' the Gunn sounded empty. 'fuck!' Andrea hissed as she struggled to reload. B312 ran around the side and jumped up the air vent ridding it all the way to the top, Six unsheathed the knife and dug it onto Andreas Shoudler " gah!" She yelled as she tried to throw him off, but B312 jumped back as Andrea grabbed her second gun and shot a Two round burst at B312 as he hid from cover he too switched to assult rifle,
Andrea looked Dowm as her shields recharged, 'sphere lowered her weapon and stalked around, ' where are you?' She thought as a crack echoed behind her, before she could turn around she was hit in the head as the simulator registered her as Dead 'fuck' she cursed,
On the ground Commander Jane and Xion reached the level they registered Crimson at usining Standard Breach and clear Tatics they cleared the left structure, " clear," Xion said "yea but where is he?" Jane asked, as Xion looked down and under his feet was Crimson's IFF tag, "what the?"he asked as he picked it up, Up innthe sniper location B312 leveled his sniper he stole from Andrea and aimed at the distracted Xion, and popped a shot of,
Jane watched as Xion was "killed" by Crimson, 'shit' She thought as she retreated back, B312 leveled his sniper again aimed at Jane who was retreating and fired a shot off, but missed, "Damn," B312 thought as he dropped the sniper and switched back to his DMR, ' alright who's left?' B312 asked as suddenly he felt a little bump on the back of his helmet, "surprise" jack said ' not close enought' B312saod silently as he kicked the legs out from under Jack and implaed him under thenhelmet "killing" him
Jane hissed as she was the only one left, ' what the hell?' She asked, when suddenly a Morse code was on her helmet, 'meet me at the center platform and we will duke it out Hand to hand, no weapons I'm waiting,' it read, Jane sighed as she headed to the platform.
Jame reached the platform and found Crimson standing with his back to her ' bad mistake.' She said as she leveled her rifle only for it to be snipered out of her hands by B312 ' so predictable I totally knew you would fall for that.' It read, ' drop your weapons sand kick them off the side,' the message on her hub said Jane dropped her rifle and pistol and kicked them off. B312 stood up and jumped off landing across from her, he drew his knife. As Jane drew hers.
The two circled around eachother waiting for the other to strike, finally B312 dipped in making Jane swing but it was a false attack as she fell short, as she redoubled B312 snuck around the side and killed her from behind ' Damn' Jane cursed, as the simulator ended,
Crimson was flipping the knife in his hands, "well done that wasn't to bad best 2 out of 3?" Crimson asked the others looked at each other and under neath there helmets they smiled.
[ five minutes later]
Fire team Xi walked out groaning beaten and tired, " he's...he's not human, nor a Spartan." Xion said. "he's a monster." Andrea said, " I pity the covenant." Jane huffed as all five collapsed on there knees as B312 walked out without a scratch on him, "good game." He said as he walked down the hall, Jane tried to look up but was too tired,
B312 walked down the hall when Sarah Palmer pulled her aside, "Spartan Crimson I want you ready for combat and back here in-oh." Sarah paused as she was B312 ready, "I didn't expect you so quickly, ' I was in the War game sim, so what do you need?" B312 asked, "another mission, get set, pelican 249er is dropping you off," Sarah said B312 nodded and headed to the armory, " I need a team of medical personal to the war games simulator, there may be injured Spartan's there," Sarah Palmer said on the PA as B312 exited the armory.
A Sangheili is heard talking. A view of the Sniper Alley's structure is pictured, with an Unggoy walking. A Sangheili Commander is seen examining its Energy Sword and Kig-Yar Heavy keeping watch. A close-up of an Unggoy Minor.
CDR Sarah PalmerCOM: "Crimson, I'm moving you up to something a little tougher today. Inserting you into a Covenant held area the Marines have been throwing themselves against to no avail. Short version of your to-do list. If it moves, shoot it."
Hanging over the drop point Serria-B312 jumped out of the pelican as it flew off before it was spotted. B312 clicked the safety off of the DMR before he did the same for his Assult Rifle.
Jared MillerCOM: "Where's that shield coming from? One moment. There's a lot of power being pulled from the planet. Weird."
PalmerCOM: "Crimson doesn't need a science report, Miller. They just need a target to shoot."
Crimson looked over and saw 2 Unggoy heading up as he popped both of them, he spun around and popped a patrolling Jackel.
MillerCOM: "Right, Commander. Have look in this area, Crimson. See what you can find."
Crimson runs down the ramp and sees the Covenant forces mostly at the bottom as he opens fire with the DMR, he stops to reload and tracks left to see a elite heading up the ramp he folds out his Assult rifle and prepares for combat, the elite charges at B312 as he bursts a couple rounds into the Elite and kills him with a melee. He looks, over and starts peppering the area,
MillerCOM: "Painting the last targets for you now."
B312 narrows his eyes ' weird I though there were more what's happened it shouldn't be this hard for a few marines to take out, oh but I am a Hyper Lethal Assassin, oh well' B312 thought as he cleared the
Remaining hostiles which were hilighted on his HUD. He popped them with Ranged DMR making the area now cleared.
MillerCOM: "Commander, there's a power source nearby. Might want to have Crimson take a look."
PalmerCOM: "Give 'em a waypoint, Miller."
The Waypoint appears on HUD. Crimson de-activates the shield generator. The shield disappears.
MillerCOM: "There we go. Shield's down. Same as before Crimson. Find a way through that shield."
Two targets appear on HUD.
Crimson throws unleashed bursts from his Assult rifle, he stumbles back as he is shot in the shoulder with a Sniper, B312 growls and rolls to another section of cover as he tosses a Grenade into a horde of Covies blowing them up. He marches forward using the ground as cover he marches forward and kills the sniper as the smoke clears he heads up, the ramp and kills the snipers up top as majority of Covenant forces were now dead.
PalmerCOM: "Nice work."
Crimson de-activates the first shield as he jumps down and shuts off the second making the barrier disappear. Crimson walks up the ramp again. Where the snipers were and snipes over the bridge as they try to rush him ' like shooting fish in a Barrel.' B312 thought
PalmerCOM: "What the hell are the Covenant doing?"
MillerCOM: "They've got some gear. It appears…"
PalmerCOM: "Spit it out, Miller."
MillerCOM: "They're siphoning power from the structure. Give me a minute to sort it out."
A target appears on the HUD. As Crimson reloads and more Covies flank at him.
PalmerCOM: "While Miller's working on his science Crimson, you continue clearing the area."
Crimson "clears" the area of the bridge and jumps down moving up as a droppod lands dropping off more Covies with two elite's with energy sword, 'Damn zealots' 'B312 huffed as he focused on the Grunts making the Elite's charge at him As B312 rolled under a sword swing grabbed a sword arm and spun the elite around as his buddy stabbed him killing him, B312 grabbed the energy sword and held it ready for battle, as the two Stood and circled around eachother on the bridge.
Neither made the first move as a group of Unggoy headed up the ramp ' I will kill the deamon!' He said " no wait!" The elite said as Crimson looked over he noticed the Grunt standing down, he looked over in Thanks " I won't let you die from a coward." The elite said as the circled eachother,
Suddenly the elite lunged as B312 parred the attack and slid up the blade and lunged for the elites chest implying him, " you fought with honor so you will die quick, like a warrior" B312 Said as he ripped the sword out and killed the elite quickly like he promised, B312 headed down the ramp into the Vally only to retreat to cover as a sniper pinned him down, he grit his teeth as he fired one shot of DMR killing the sniper as he continued down the hill.
PalmerCOM: "Hostiles inbound, Crimson. Give them a proper welcome, yeah."
Crimson clears the rocky terrain and pushes into the open area of "Sniper Alley." As B312 reached the ramp to the open area he comes under fire from a turret as he takes out the Turret
He looks to see the rest of the Covies on the ground he grabs his Assult rifle and jumps into the Frey.
PalmerCOM: "Dalton, send Crimson supplies."
Spartan Robert DaltonCOM: "You got it, Commander."
Crimson is forced back by the sheer volume of fire coming from the other end, as pods of guns and ammo fall from the sky, ' hell yea' B312 Said as he picks up a rocket launcher and in two hits destroys a levitating platform as the Covies on it falls to There death,
Crimson reaches the target as the last of the elite tries to crawl away Crimson presses his boot on the back of the elite and fires his DMR in the back of the head
MillerCOM: "Commander Palmer, Crimson's reached the target."
PalmerCOM: "Once again, Spartans do in 24 minutes what Marines can't do in 24 hours. Dalton, I need a decent-sized explosive launched from Infinity on Crimsons mark."
DaltonCOM: "I can arrange that, Commander."
PalmerCOM: "Crimson, secure the area near the generator. I'm gonna be Dalton's eyes on this one."
Crimson turns around and sees a drop pod of Covies landing behind him Serria-B312 hpcharges forward to cover more ground as well as intimidating factor, which works as the Covies runnaway an Elite calls them cowards and with the opening B312 slides under a leg kicks sending the Elite to the ground as Crimson gets behind the Sangheili and stabs him in the throat with his knife, and runs to eliminate the last of the Covenant. When there's only 4 left
PalmerCOM: "Miller, light up the last few targets."
The Remaining Covenant appear on the HUD. Crimson secures the area sniping the last Unggoy as he walks to the generator.
MillerCOM: "Crimson's got the area secured, Commander."
PalmerCOM: "Miller, paint a target on the generator for Spartan Dalton."
Crimson activates the target. And backs away
DaltonCOM: "Got it. Bombs away. Crimson, I'd get to cover if I were you."
MillerCOM: "Crimson, move it. Get to the safe area, now."
B312 sprints back to the other end of the canyon and looks back just in time to see The target is destroyed by Areal bombs. 'Quite the site' B312 Said.
DaltonCOM: "Impact on target, Commander. Confirming… All power to the area is gone."
PalmerCOM: "Well done everyone. Crimson, head to the extraction point and come on home."
A Pelican arrives and B312 hops on as the pelican flies off.
