Odd's mind wandered and he recalled the fight with the Scarab.

The monster of a vechicle powered up it's guns and sprayed the heavy weapon teams with boiling plasma, guns that were meant for armored vechicles.

Odd saw a Marine load his rocket launcher and fire both of the tubes at the monster. The first rocket slammed into the Scarab's turret, knocking the plasma beam wide. The second one hit the leg. It was a lucky shot and the leg collapsed on itself.

The Scarab's merely shook off the damage, despite the damaged turret and the smashed leg.

It charged up it's main gun and literarly obliterated the platuo. But the Marine team managed to escape the shot, because they moved down the slope.

" Marines! Go go go! Odd and the Marines charged forward. One of the Marines hefted a Jackhammer RPG. He braced himself and fired. The RPG rocketed toward the Scarab's other front leg, and crippled it.

Brute-Grunt teams counter charged from the ruined base. Odd ran forward, his feet gouging into the ground as he accelerated to his top speed of 50 kilometers/hour.

Odd threw a nade, and one handed sprayed the Covenant down with a SMG.

He was soon amongst them in the fray, movements blurs. He lashed out with fists of metal, crushing heads, collapsing chests. He liberated two energy swords from a pair of dead Brutes and was hacking and slashing the Covenant.

The Marines joined the fray, pistols and daggers out in meelee. Pistols shots cracked out loud, plasma guns spitting fire. But, even with numbers, the humans prevailed in the conflict.

Odd hefted a Lotas anti-tank mine and threw it at the weakened leg of the Scarab. It detonated as it hit the leg, shattering it completely. The giant crashed to the ground, and the UNSC poured into the flaming giant, killing all in their way.

It was a vicious fight. Marines were cut down by energy swords, gravity hammers, and plasma fire. But several Marines approprieated Jackel shields and several portable shields and cut down endless Covenant. Odd was at the front, energy sword in one hand, gravity hammer in the other.

Bubble shields were erected, and slowly, the UNSC beat back the Covenant.

That's when A team of highly-trained, heavily armored Brutes stepped into the fray. The tables turned, and one by one the Marines fell. Odd leapt forward, cutting apart a Brute with the sword, smashing back another with the hammer.

Soon, it was just Odd and the Elite Brutes left. One of the Brutes lunged forward. Odd neatly sidestepped and slammed the hammer into it's back, breaking it's spine. The other Brutes charged at once and it was a fierce meelee. Odd sword energy ran out, so he was two-handing the hammer to devastating effect.

The last Brute stood. Odd hefted the gravity hammer. The hammer's irridecent glow illuminating the battleground. The hammer flickered once, twice, and died. Odd looked at the hammer and dropped it.

The Brute appeared to be grinning, and decided to drop it's weapons too. The Brute banged it's fists on it's chest, a clear challenge. Odd roared and made an ancient, arcane gesture with one finger.

The Brute charged Odd, but Odd held his ground. He gathered his prostigous strength as a Spartan, and in a spectacle any Spartan would have appluaded enthueastically, lifted the Brute over him, and smashed it into the floor.

The Brute died intsantly, neck snapped. Odd stood there breathing heavily, and took his assualt rifle from his back, and proceeded to clear the Scarab.

Sniper fire rang out, bullet whizzing over William's head. The rumors were true. They'd headed into hell. One thing the rumors didn't say was that there were Spartans amongst the UNSC forces. And to top it off, PDF soldiers banded together and attacked the attacking rebels (PDFPlanetary Defense Forces, it's from Warhammer 40k. Pockets of shattered PDF forces still lingered in the city, using guerilla tactics.)

It was going to be a long day.

Fire team Ozair managed to clear out the lower levels. They were on they're way back when a Marine spotted a concealed door.

"Hey looky here. We've got a secret door here."

"Stand clear!" Ulrich ordered.

He placed a plasma grenade on the door, and set it off. The plasma partially melted the door, but it was still in working order. Sort of.

Ulrich didn't intend to blow down the door. When a plasma grenade detonates, it releases a sort of EMP wave, that would short out most electronic systems, including locks and cameras.

Blue 3 literarly kicked down the door, UNSC Marines guns pointed at the door. There was nobody in there. They proceeded cautiously down the corridor, and at the end, a heavy door state of the art locking systems. But, despite it's sophisticatedness, it still couldn't withstand the EMP from a plasma grenade.

The door opened, and everyone gasped in awe. It was a full blown hanger, with Scorpion tanks, Warthogs, Pelicans, Longswords, Mako-class drones, and supplies. Best of all, it wasn't heavily guarded, as it was one of the smallest supply depots.

The craft materialized into normal space, and cut it's engines. It soon disappeard off of any radar system that happened to be monitoring the surronding space. Engine baffles and stealth systems allowed it to sneak up to the planet of Corasis.

It guided itself to an orbit, intercepting any signals from the rebel-captured city.

Yumi and Daigon, had arrived.

Meanwhile, another craft winked into normal space, with a guard of Longswords. They swooped down towards the planet, and landed in a desolate desert on the Corasis.

Jeremy climbed off his personal craft and walked into the hidden lab.

I hope this was enough action!
