Chapter 10:The fight is not over.
(Master Chief's POV)
Chief knew that the Flood are now in Ohu,and strangely one was inside Hougen. But he had to know how long it was inside. He walk right up to Genba,Genba was a little scared of Chief but Chief just scanned him. Genba was clean of Flood infection,but still he had to know how much did Hougen had it.
"Genba,listen you have to tell me everything you know of your brothers behavior. You have to cooperate,Floods are not laughing matter you know,right now the entire planet's fate is in your paws and only you can forbid the disaster that is about to break. So you have to fill us in with any strange behavior that Hougen went through."said Chief.
"But how?"asked Genba still afraid.
"Floods often make a normal being do stuff that are out of the normal,and Hougen had become even weirder in the moment."said Sasuke.
"Just tell us how long has it been that Hougen started to bahave strange."said Jet.
"Well when we were just pups about 6 months old we had a breeder once and he left us to starve to death. We were really hungry,my brother was very smart but then he had the crazy idea of eating the other dogs that were with us back then,when our breeder returned we were a year old and he then had the idea of eating our human. I wasn't as smart as him but I did thought that it was very crazy."said Genba.
"How old are you now?"asked Chief.
"We...well I'm 4 years old now."said Genba looking at Chief.
"Tha's not good."said Chief.
"Of course not it means there's had to be even more now."said Missile.
"Not that,is the time. The only way a Flood had to be inside someone that many years it has to be that the Flood inside Hougen was an egg inside him."said Chief.
"Wait you don't mean..."said Ken disgusted.
"The Flood grew inside Hougen. Of course he was gonna eat dogs and humans. That way the Flood can feed on the intelligence of the being's brain"said Chief.
"EEEEWWWW."said the Ohu dogs and the rest of Hougen's pack.
"That explains his brain eating issue."said Genba.
"Genba can you take us to that place,we need to investigate that place. And your the only one who is to blame if you play any tricks."demanded Chief.
"Surething right this way."said genba as he was ready to lead Chief to the shed he grew.
"Chief. Wait you can't trust him. You know who are we dealing here."said Weed.
"Weed as much as I hate to blame,if you don't trust him you can be another risk for this world to end,your decisions affect us all Weed,same if you don't kill someone."said Chief.
"Oh so now it's my fault?"said Weed angry.
"No,but you have to make some sacrifices to make a better world. The world is not color pink Weed,ther were times were everyone wanted peace in the world but at a moment of crisis everything is doomed. For all we know in the future peace still doesn't exist and it's hard for it to exist. The only thing that can make peace is by showing them the stuff they are playing with. Right now is your chance to make every member of Hougen's pack fight with you. Moments like this are the best way to gain anyone's trust."said Chief.
"I'm not gonna fight with those monsters. We Ouu dogs only allow good dogs in our team."said Weed with anger towards Chief's decision.
"And you said you wanted peace. Okay everyone who is willing to help us defeat the Flood come with us,but if your gonna stay with your leader then I hope you survive on your own. Now whoever wants to comes follow me and my spartan team."said Chief as he followed Genba.
Eventually every Ohu dog including Gin went behind with Chief and the rest of Hougen's pack to fight the Flood.
"Wait don't tell me your following him now,you two father? But why?"said Weed tearing a little.
"I'm sorry son but Chief had fought with this things and not following him would be a bad thing for us."said Gin.
"Just leave I don't need you guys anyways,I can fight them on my own. I'll wait for their arrival and kill them,after all I'm trained."said Weed turning away from Gin.
"Sorry son but..."said Gin.
"JUST GO ALREADY!"snapped Weed at Gin.
Gin just felt a little hurt and went to follow Chief. As they ran through the forest they arrived at their destination and boy it was ugly.
"Here we are. Is uglier than I remember."said Genba looking at the shed.
"The Floods must have made it their home already. Alright everyone put on the masks I gave you."said Chief as they putted their masks.
Chief attached some daggers at the dogs so they can use it in their paws considering that their mouth were covered. Chief knocked the gates down and they were now witnessing the place now,it looked like the horror with a strange looking parasite pods and the gaseous chemicals floating around the place. Everyone was relief that they could breathe with their masks on. Then the horror started thousands of Floods in combat form started to appear and charged at them. Chief started to shoot at them quickly and Every dog was attacking with their daggers while Genba's pack and Genba stayed behind considering they weren't trained to fight Floods. Chief using his assault rifle blew the heads of some Floods. While Ben despite he was blind was swinging his dagger and perfectly cutting the throats of the Floods,thanks to the training he was able to sense them then Chief threw the same device that he used on Batto towards Ben and the device landed perfectly on Ben's head. He felt the same sensation that Batto felt and when his vision came clear he saw how hideous the Floods were.
"HOLY SHIT THIS THINGS ARE WAY UGLIER THAN I EXPECTED!"said Ben as he decapitated a Flood.
But the Flood still was alive until Ben yelled.
"OH NO WAY YOU BASTARD WHEN I SAY YOU DIEEE YOU...FUCKING...DIIIIIIIIEEEEE!he said as he stabbed the Flood several times.
The Flood was now dead for sure. Reika had her problems she was trying to avoid as many Floods possible till one screeched at her fiercefully and she closed her eyes and swung her dagger and the Flood fell dead.
"Did I hit it?"she asked as she opened her eyes to see her dagger and saw that she stabbed the Flood's main core.
Ken was disturbed by this. The hideous faces and the disturbing screams they made was too much to bear but he knew that Kagetora was with him so he felt confident that his best friend is backing him up,he even saw his mother killing them without having problem.
"WOOO DIE YOU PICE OF SHIIIIITT!"yelled Cross.
Well she was enjoying killing the Floods. Smith had ease thanks that Chief builded him a mechanic leg for him to walk on all fours again and he was either stabbing or crushing them with his metal paw. Gin was killing Floods as it is but then a Flood with quick reaction swung rapidly its blade like hand and for Gin this was the end but then the arm of the Flood blew up as his head and torso did the same. Gin turned to see Chief reloading his sotgun from saving Gin before time.
"Thanks Chief."said Gin.
"Don't mention it."said Chief.
GB was having the best time of his life,he felt for the first time that he was usefull and a great warrior when he killed a Flood everytime. Jerome was waiting for something exciting to happen and was now finally doing a big duty as a spartan. John was killing five Floods at a time easily,Missile,Jet and Rocket thanks to their synched skills they manged to make some Floods to die instantly. Sasuke was sticking in walls from time to time striking Floods like there was no tomorrow he even got a clear stike by killing one in the air. Tesshin was dodging and making the Floods to hit other Floods and at the same time he killed any Flood who tried to use a stealth like techniques. Akame was using his daggers and at the same times some throwing knifes that Chief gave him,he aimed at their heads but everytime he missed he use his dagger to kill them. Kyoushiro recklessly was only cutting the Floods heads off. Hiro was lucky to be big as he was able to knife them easile. Moss and Jaguar eather they tackled the Floods or they used their massive bodies to crush them. Mel was young but he managed to stabbed them from behind thanks that he was a small target towards any Flood. Hook was using his surroundings to make the Floods fall for a trap and he manage to stabbed them with the dagger. Then Chief made a calling.
"Everyone get out now."said Chief as everyone followed.
Chief knocked down some containers inside the shed he then threw a grenade inside and yelled.
"Fire in the hole!"he screamed as everyone backed away. Then the Floods were screeching as more appeared and as the second passed the grenade explodes with the container as the entire shed blew up making some Floods reamins to fly all over the place burning. Some Floods fell dead to the floor while burning while others were blown apart. As their screeches were decreasing some of them were trying to run away but died as they burned. Everyone got out of cover and saw the burning hell of Floods destroyed at last. Everyone cheered knowing that they destroyed the main source of Floods appereance but now they have to kill those Floods that made their way all around Ohu.
"Great job everyone now we need to find the Floods that went all over the place."said Chief as he continued his way.
"Hey but what about us?"said Genba.
"In time like this,it required at lot of help. You'll be trained to be spartans as well but only because we need more help and this is a time that no one can be left behind."said Chief.
"You'll be trained only if you promise to follow our rules."said Gin.
Genba didn't took it lightly but he knew that if he wanted to survive the nightmare he had to give upbeing evil and join Ohu.
"Alright,but I want to follow Chief before I follow Ohu."said Genba.
"Deal."said Gin as they continue their way.
(Weed's POV)
He was alone in Gajou waiting for the Floods but all he felt was sadness as he though that his pack was now out there doing a big mission with Chief that he started to think that maybe Chief was right. He though that but he snapped out of those thoughs as he heard a certain screech. Then a lot of screeches. Weed turned and saw fifteen Floods crawling down of Gajou and the one that stood on top was different it had a black suit,kind of the same that Chief had under his armor and this one roared instead,Weed though that this one was an alpha then the Floods started to attack. Weed ran away knowing he couldn't fight this Floods.
"What have I done I need to find Chief and fast."said Weed as the Floods pursued him.
Oh boy in what trouble has Weed gotten into. Stay tuned for Chapter 11.
