Author's notes: Man I r the awesome, so many chapters flowing in :D

-----------------------------------------------LCPL John Miller Green Sabre Platoon

Time 0430hours

John continued to fire his weapon. The barrel overheated as it tore through several NOD militants. What he had not realized is. The spectres had fired their shells at him. John looked up to see an artillery shell fly straight for his face…..

John snapped up on his bed. His breaths were heaving. This was the second time he had a nightmare about his former platoon. John shook his head a bit and stared at the clock beside him. "0432HOURS" It took John several seconds to get the time through his head. He quickly got out of bed and put on the pieces of Composite Armor that had fallen during his sleep. As soon as the armor was complete, John grabbed his M4K, slung it and picked up his duffle bag. He took one last look at his temporary residence and stepped out the door. An escort was out in the reception area and he called John over to him before John could get in the elevator. The escort said"Come on LCPL Miller, we gotta get topside, the Ox is coming soon." John nodded and followed the escort to the cargo elevator that was left of the normal elevator. John pressed the up button on the panel that was in the wall. A slow rumble started somewhere below their feet but it continued to rise."DING" The massive doors slid open, revealing an open platform with several canvas covered boxes in the center. The escort pressed a button and the doors slid shut. The cargo elevator slowly rumbled to life again and it headed for the surface. John put the duffel bag down and pulled out 3 clips for his M4K. He slid a clip home and started to pace. The escort looked at his weapon in awe, John's M4K was perfection. He said to John"Damn Corporal, that is a nice weapon" John nodded to him and continued to pace. After a couple of minutes,(and several curses from John's mind due to the sluggish pace from the Cargo elevator), the doors slid open, revealing the slowly rising sun to John's eyes. John stared at the beautiful vista that was off in the distance. The escort tugged at John and he snapped out of it. The escort said"Okay, wait here for about 5 minutes, the Ox will be here." John saluted to the escort and the salute was returned. After he walked off, John pulled out his MF93 and grabbed 4 clips from his duffel bag. He slid 3 clips into the side holster slots and slid the last clip into the handgun, which in turn gave back a click.

John waited, he could hear a low rumble heading towards the pad he was waiting by. He put on his helmet and had to wait as the initializing programs started up. "Welcome to the ODH, starting up HUD display." The image appeared in front of his eyes. "Starting up weapons software" The weapons part of the HUD appeared, the ammunition counter directly linked with the glove scanner on his Composite Armor. "Initializing radio uplink and armor status." The uplink display was added to his HUD, under the ammunition counter. The armor status was put to the upper left corner of his HUD. "Initialization complete" John could hear the rumble getting closer. He wondered"Where the hell are they?" As if on cue, the rumble stopped and what looked like a NOD mechanized company was approaching the base. John stared at shock through his HUD, but he snapped out of it and quickly activated the uplink button. A tired voice answered"Alpha base security, what do you need?" John quickly said"holy shit, we have a NOD mechanized company coming towards the pad" He uploaded a video patch through and the voice replied in a loud tone"Roger That, MARINES GRAB YOU WEAPONS, WE GOT A SHITLOAD OF NOD COMING" John cut the uplink connection and pulled out all of the ammo that was stashed in his duffel bag. He then picked up the duffel bag and ran towards the entrance. The rumble was getting louder as the vehicles in that company approached the front gate. John quickly slid a heavy explosive grenade into the under slung grenade launcher. He patiently waited….

-------------------------------------------------PFC Shawn Rush Alpha Base Security detachment 4th squad

Time 0456HOURS

Shawn gripped his weapon tightly as that NOD company was headed towards the front gate. A loud crack sounded, a sign that the tanks were firing at the door. The marines with the ASP7 Missile launchers were positioned at several high access points, waiting on the cue."BOOM" The front door crashed open and the suicidal fanatics sprinted towards the entrenched position that Shawn was waiting in. Assault Rifle fire erupted at the wave of fanatics and they were cut down immediately. The scorpion tanks slowly approached towards the entrenched area and Shawn heard through his COM"Missile squad, fire at the tanks!" Several whumps happened as the missiles streaked towards tanks, vapor trails streamed behind the missiles."BOOOM!" Multiple explosions happened and several tanks exploded. Shawn saw several militants approach the entrenched position, firing wildly at the firing slits. Shawn shouldered his rifle and aimed down the sights."BANG BANG BANG" The rifle kicked in Shawn's hands as the bullets traveled into a militant, blowing his head off. The NOD missile squads were coming towards the position as well, their RPG-9As were up and ready to fire the moment the militants were killed."WHOOSH" Several green vapor missiles streaked towards Shawn's firing slit. He involuntarily ducked as the missiles impacted on the instacrete defences. The machine gunners fired at the enemy missile squads, empty bullet shells piling by their feet. Shawn reloaded his MA7S and aimed down his sights again, firing single shots at the NOD militants that had breached the hole. They were going to need help fast…

-----------------------------------------------LCPL John Miller Green Sabre Platoon

Time:0509HOURS

John had managed to fallback to an abandoned apartment that was in the front of the base., Judging from the gunfire, he could hear the NOD M16A6s louder then the MA7Ss. John walked into a bedroom with a window that had the perfect view of battle that was going on below. John pulled off the Assault Rifle barrel and quickly slid on the Longshot barrel. The sights adapted to the barrel and he aimed out of the window.

Multiple targets could be taken out from his vantage point, but John wanted to cripple the NOD forces. He shouldered the rifle and aimed down the scope. John could see a confessor that was ordering the militants around. He held his breath and pulled the trigger"BAM!" Through the scope, John could see the Confessor's head pop off and the blood spraying like rain down onto the troops. He saw an approaching flame tank and fired at the gas line that hooked the gasoline to the turret."KABOOM" The tank exploded, taking several attack buggies and recon bikes out. John pulled back his rifle and switched the barrel again. He ran down the stairs, wondering where that Green Sabre Ox was. The minute he reached the front lobby, John saw what looked like an Ox coming from the sky at an extreme speed."SLAM" Several marines wearing what looked like Zone Powered Combat Armor hopped off the Ox, rail guns firing at the tanks that were firing at the instacrete bunker." BOOM BOOM BOOM" More tanks exploded and the militants stopped their advance on the bunker and turned to face the Green Sabre marines. A sheet of bullets flew towards the Green Sabre marines, but all of the bullets pinged uselessly off the armor. John watched in awe as they pulled out Rail Carbine Assault Rifles and fired at the NOD. Blood sprayed ceaselessly and the entire company was dead within an hour. John walked towards the group of Green Sabre marines and the marine in the custom zone raider armor walked over and said"Well, you must be Miller, I'm Eva Turner, welcome to the Green Sabres." John saluted and asked"When do we leave?" She responded"The minute I finish speaking with Captain Parker" John nodded and waited…..
