Chapter 2: The First Mission

"Fireteam Crimson report to Commander Palmer," says Roland to all members of Crimson. Sword heads to Commander Palmer and he gets there right after Jay does. After Sword arrives, a few minutes later, Nat arrives. Chael takes about 3 minutes after Nat to get there.

"I see you finally decided to show up," mocks Sword.

"Shut up Sword," responds Chael. All of the members laugh at the response Chael gave.

"Okay Crimson," Palmer says, "it's time to deploy to your mission."

The Spartans then get into their Pelican and start heading towards Requiem. When they land on Requiem there are two Warthogs and three squads with three Marines in each.

"Relax Marines, the Spartans are here," Palmer says to the Marines. Sword and Jay get in one Warthog with a Marine, and Nat and Chael get in the other Warthog with a Marine.

"Sword you drive ,and Nat you drive the other one," Jay commands.

"Yes Sir!" responds Sword and Nat.

"I'll be in the passenger seat for Sword, and Chael you get in the turret in Nat's Warthog," commands Jay again.

"Got it, Sir," responds Chael.

"Marines, we need two volunteers to be our gunner, and their passenger," says Jay. Two Marines volunteer and get in the Warthogs. The two Warthogs start up and wait for their objective

"Commander we are in our Hogs and are ready for our objective," announces Jay.

"Okay, good Crimson, today you will need to take out Covenant forces along with four generators," Palmer says in response to Jay.

"Okay Commander, we'll get it done," says Jay to Palmer.

"Let's go Crimson," commands Jay. The Warthogs head towards the closest generator, which is shown by a marker in their helmets. As Sword is driving by squads of Grunts, Jay is shooting them in the head killing them instantly, and the Marine in the gunner position is shooting Jackals and Elites and killing them as well. They reach the first generator and Jay and the Marine begin shooting the generator until it explodes.

"First generator down Commander," reports Jay.

"I don't need a play by play Spartan, tell me when the other three are destroyed," responds Palmer.

"Jay, second generator down," reports Nat.

"Good Spartan, now head to the next one," responds Jay.

"Yes Sir," says Nat.

Sword begins driving to the next generator, but instead of Grunts, Elites, and Jackals, it is something else.

"Spartans! It's a Wraith!" panics the Marine.

"Don't panic Marine, we've got this, just shoot the other enemies," commands Jay, "Sword, let me take the wheel; and you go take out that Wraith."

"Okay Sir," says Sword. Jay slides over to take the wheel of the Warthog as Sword hops out of it, and sprints towards the Wraith. Sword sprints up beside the Wraith, as the Covenant controlling it are unaware of his presence. Sword hops on the front of the Wraith, throws an Elite gunner out of it and kills the Elite, after that Sword plants a grenade on the Wraith and hops off it into the Warthog, who was coming by at the time.

As they drive away the Wraith explodes and they reach the next generator, they shoot it until it explodes.

"Jay! Sword! We need you at the next generator ASAP, we're getting hammered over he-," yells Nat.

"Sword! Punch it, we need to get there now!" commands Jay.

Sword speeds up tremendously and hurries to get there, as they're driving Jay and the Marine kill many Grunts, Jackals, and Elites. As they arrive they see Nat and Chael fighting. At the same time Nat and Chael's Warthog is blown up and the Marine that was in that Warthog is lying on the ground by it dead. A beam from a Beam Rifle shoots by Swords face and hits the other Marine in the head and he falls out of the Warthog dead. Sword and Jay get out of the Warthog flip the Warthog on its side and take cover behind it. They are in the shootout of their life with ten Grunts, four Jackals, and seven Elites. Chael takes out five of the Grunts with headshots, and Jay takes out the other five Grunts the same way. Nat takes out the four Jackals by shooting their hands and then shooting them in the face. Sword takes out his Assault Rifle and shoots and kills two of the Elites. All of a sudden the generator explodes, they see the five Elites fall over dead with Fireteam Majestic standing behind the dead Elites.
