Chapter 6: Revenge
Master Chief and his squadron had pushed towards their ship. The Forerunner and the Flood were everywhere. They were close to the Dragon but it all went wrong. Their ship was taken out by what seemed to be a Wraith. There was no way that they could reach the generators.
"Hmm. Maybe there's an alternate path. Cortana, check the map." said the Chief.
"Done. There's one other route but it's very dangerous. We have to go through the underground digging site. This is the only other way but I checked a 3-D map of the tunnels and they are infested with Flood. I've never seen so many at one time." said Cortana.
"Then it's settled. We're gonna go through the tunnels. Everyone, gather what you can from the Dragon." said the Chief. They all searched for anything they could use in the remains. Surprisingly, they found rockets and granades that haven't detonated. They took all that they could and headed for the entrance. They pushed through the opposing forces and made it through the entrance. The Flood were everywhere. It was a massacre. They pushed through until they got to the elevator. They went up into the generator room. It was congested with Flood. SOme had to stay behind because they couldn't fit.
"Stand back!" yelled the Chief. He then lobbed a few granades into the center of the Flood and they all exploded and died. The generator was damaged too but they needed some way to destroy it. It was different than the ones on Halo. These had diamond-like crystals. They had to find some way. Possibly, an explosion of a high magnitude would work. Master Chief took a Marine's rocket launcher, stepped back and fired all of the rockets. The explosion worked! The generator was destroyed and they moved on to the next. There was one slight problem. The next generator was only accesable through a flying vehicle. They found a Banshee but there was only one. Master Chief flew it up to the generator entrance and pushed it down to the others. They eached did the same until eveyone was on. They rushed towards the generator and emptied another rocket launcher. There was but one generator left. The enemy were too abundant to approach head on.
"This serves as a big complication." said the Chief. They fought until they got to the cliffside. Master Chief thought that they could scale the cliff to the generator entrance and slip in unnoticed. They scaled the cliff but were soon discovered by Forerunner. They went inside Banshees and fired upon Master Chief and his soldiers. Half of the squadron was killed, the rest made it out alive but seriously hurt. They had few field med-kits but they used what they could and rationed the remaining supplies. This last generator was somehow different from the other two. Master Chief sensed something different. They walked towards the generator but hey couldn't get to it. It seemed that there was a wall that was blocking them. There was a shield but no generator.
"Cortana, scan the field and give me a diagnostic on the shield." said the Chief.
"On it. Wait, this makes no sense. I scanned it but there seems to be no field. This is akward." replied Cortana.
"Hmm. Scan for any lifeforms." ordered the Chief.
"But that would do us no go-" said Cortana.
"Just do as I say Cortana. I didn't ask for your opinion, just do it. I'm confident that this scan'll work." said the Chief. Cortana scanned the room again. There was life besides theirs.
"Chief, there are bodies there. They seem to be Prophets and are in deep meditation. Strangley, an EMP charge will gill them but we need to get out of the vicinity or else our armor will malfunction." said Cortana.
"Just as I thought. Give me a disrptor granade and get out of here." said the Chief. Cortana handed him a disruptor granade and left the room along woth everyone else. Master Chief lobbed the granade and ran towards the exit. The granade detonated and killed the Prophet-like creatures. They proceeded towards the generator and destroyed it. Alpha Forerunner was about to explode. They had 30 minutes to find a ship and get the hell outta the place. They knew where they could find a ship, but it would be a long trek to get to it. They had no time left......
