Halo: Halfbreed
Chapter 2: Breaking Point
Masterchief continued to drive further and further from the forst heading in a southwest direction towards the cavern that he had only seen yesterday. As the hours past by it seemed that he was driving forever when suddenly his vehicle was struck and he was sent sprawling into the snow. Thrown alomst 7 feet away from his car then it with no warning it exploded into several pieces fire was everywhere burning away the snow. A burning spear came flying in his direction he rolled out the way before it could strike the back of his head. He thought Whew, damn am I lucky today, whew. He got up aching everywhere he decided he had nothing to lose and walked into the dark cave fearful looking as it was. He turned on the lights on his helmet and continued trudging inside the cave as he saw recently killed soldiers. Thus hopefully checking their bodies to find no life. He moved on seeing weapons on the ground stained with blood but, he took them anyways even though they were covered with fresh and old blood alike. He heard alot of movement ahead he turned down the headlights and quietly pulled his gun out, keeping it in hand just in case there were Covenant up ahead. He trudged stealthly into a large room with 3 tunnels branching offf of the main room.
To his surprise he saw a weird humanoid creature feeding on a dead soldiers flesh! As he saw it eating he held up his gun to fire but the second he aimed to fire it was gone with only the mans body laying there. He began to think he was imagining things when he was struck with a blunt object on the back of his head, he then turned around and fired at his attacker but it seemed to be wearing bullet proof armor. It then knocked his gun from his hand and struck him under the chin almost slicing his throat open as it did great speed the creature was gone again he ran to pick up his gun when a foot crushed the gun under its heel. Masterchief then began to punch and jab at his opponet with awesome fury! Striking it's chest, arms, and face with no trouble at all, they began to punch and swipe at each other with amazing power! Then Masterchief did a foot sweeping causing his foe to come crashing into the snow. He stomped on his enemy 3 times before grabbing his pistol from a side pocket and it pointed at the creature kicking it onto it's back he observed the bizzare being that lay before him. With no warning it sat up and looked at Mastercheif before kicking him in the face as the sound of breaking bones filled the cave as Mastercheif was thrown on the ground.
Then his opponet picked up his knocked out invader as it seemed to wonder where this human had come from. He then took Mastercheif down the 3rd tunnel into another room lit by a fire and threw him onto the ground. It then walked to a pile of dead plants and laid them beside Mastercheif before walking to the entrance of the room and said.
"I was once like you. Consider yourself lucky I didn't kill you, invader." It said before walking down the dark passage. It faded from sight....not be seen again.....
