Halo:
Return of Spartan 117
Chapter 10:
SOS
Arbiter ran down the corridor with his Assault Rifle. He does not know what is happening but when he turned around the corner, he found himself face-to-face with a Flood Carrier Form.
The Carrier Form planted itself and exploded.
Arbiter jumped out of the way. He landed and turned around and started shooting as Flood Infection Forms started swarming to him.
Soldiers came around the corner and saw the Infection Forms and started shooting. Helping Arbiter.
More Infection Forms appeared behind the soldiers. The soldiers screamed as they were attacked from behind.
Arbiter stood up and set a trip mine. Then ran. Soon after, he heard an explosion. He turned around just to find a Flood Combat Form to be blown away by the explosion.
"Oh no," Arbiter murmured, "we've been run over by Flood."
"Cortana," he said as he put the chip back inside his helmet, "welcome back."
"Thank you," Cortana said.
Master Chief sat down. He had been to the burning village. Right now he was at the summit of the Holy Mountain looking over the horizon.
"The village looks like it had been attacked by Flood, all the wreckage yet, no bodies. It seems they have left in the direction of the main base. That was where the footprints led." Cortana explained.
"Well, let's start our journey back then," Master Chief stood up and started his journey down the mountain.
Arbiter ran out of the main base and turned around. Flood were swarming out and running at him. He jumped up onto a Hornet and flew it up quickly. Some Flood jumped up and Arbiter reversed the Hornet, making the Flood jumping up missing the Hornet and falling back down.
Arbiter flew the Hornet higher.
"Mayday, mayday," Arbiter called out into the radio, "SOS, we have an emergency."
"SOS!"
IN THE NEXT CHAPTER: As Master Chief comes closer to the main base, he finds out a secret, one that will shock everybody. And Arbiter tries to call out for help. But will it come in time?
