It was a long journey, but the Smashers crossed the half-way point in their journey. They had visited Planets Jurai and Frieza. Since there were problems on Eternia, the Smashers decided that Coven would be their last stop. And their final destination would come today. Their final stop was believed to be the most action-packed stop yet. The Great Fox inched it's way to the planet until the Smashers saw a giant purplish ball. They had arrived in Coven sub-space.

Pikachu: Our final stop.

Link: I have high hopes for Coven. If the Covenant are like they are in Halo, we're in for a fight.

Fox: I'm hoping to get some kind of battle in. I haven't been fighting that much on this little trip.

Falcon: Me neither. And the Galaxy Police aren't very tough.

Link: Well, let's get ready to land this bird.

The Great Fox entered Coven's atmosphere. The heat sink to the spaceship turned a violent red as the Great Fox descended further into Coven's atmosphere. The ship broke through the planet's clouds and in a matter of moments, touched the surface of the planet. The door retracted, and the Smashers walked out of their ship.

The Smashers had landed nearby a metropolis. They noticed the advanced buildings filled the area. On the outskirts of the city, the vegetation was similar to a grassland, except the grass was blue-green. As the Smashers walked into the skyscraper-infested region, they noticed the Covenant consisted of many types of people. There were short, orangish ones as well as the tall, muscular, blue and red ones.

Samus: I'm surprised that none of them are even noticing us. Very different from the game.

Mewtwo: The game is fictional. Besides, it takes place 500 plus years later than this time period. It's obvious that the Covenant are not as warlike as the humans made us believe.

Pikachu: Well, the Guidebook to The Arena says that even though the Covenant aren't like they are in the game, they still love to fight.

Link: Alright! These are our kinds of warriors.

Fox: Yeah, but hopefully, The Arena won't be packed with Grunts. God, they're weak.

Falco: The opponents are probably as good as The Arena Earth. Maybe better, but maybe worse.

Suddenly, a swarm of Covenant civilians ran in the path of the Smashers. The fright on their faces made the Smashers believe that something horrible was happening. One of the short orange Covenants ran up to the Smashers.

Link: What's going on around here?

Covenant #1: You shouldn't be here. He's gonna kill us all! AAHHH!

The Covenant ran off.

Falcon: This may be that adrenaline rush we're all looking for. Let's check it out!

The Smashers ran in the opposite direction of the stampeding Covenant. After getting around such a swarm, the Smashers saw a platoon of Covenant soldiers fighting against a man with dark skin, silver hair, night-black eyes, and a slightly muscular but lithe body. The fighter wore black cargo pants and a black t-shirt. The Covenant platoon focused themselves on him. A yellow elite emerged out of the platoon with an energy sword.

Elite #1: I refuse to let you get away with all the chaos you've ensured for my people!

The elite charged towards the man, who merely stood unflinching and with crossed arms. The elite swung his blade, only for the man to react by catching the blade in mid-swing. The elite struggled to take back his sword, but the man clinched with little effort.

???: It's a shame that universal space is wasted on such a weakling. You're not fit to live in a realm where only the strong survive.

Without letting go of the blade, the man twisted the elite's sword towards him and forced the blade into it's own wielder's skull.

Falcon: Sweet merciful crap! The yellow elites are the toughest in the game, and he just disposed of him so easily!

Samus: That's nothing special. We could probably take him.

Mewtwo: I'm not so sure. He's hiding quite a lot of power.

Link: We're gonna have to take this guy down somehow.

Pikachu: You realize how hard that is to do when there's an entire city population getting in your way? This is unlike every battle we've taken part of. Innocent people could get hurt.

Falco: Well, anybody still alive would've high-tailed it out of here by now.

Fox: Is that a fact? (Points to the platoon opening fire on the man) We should get them out of here, too.

Link: I'll hold him off. In the meantime, you guys evacuate anybody still in the area. When you're finished, we'll gang attack him.

Pikachu: A gang attack. Like THAT'S honorable.

Mewtwo: This isn't a battle for pride, Pikachu. This is a battle to save innocent lives.

The Covenant suddenly stopped firing because of their ammo shortage. The being charged towards the platoon, but was struck by a shoulder tackle and was sent flying through a building wall.

Link: Everybody, get out of here, NOW! It's too dangerous!

The being emerged from the building he recently crashed through.

???: Oh, it is gonna be dangerous, alright. For you, it will be pure hell.

Link: This has gone on long enough! What gives you the right to terrorize innocent people like this?

???: It's not my fault that these mortals are too weak for this world. Only the strongest survive in this universe, and it would seem as if life would cease to exist soon.

Link: That's enough! You're gonna regret ever laying your fingers on these people!

???: You Evil Hunters never give up, do you?

Link: Wait, what? Evil Hunters?

???: You don't seem to be a native Covenant. Therefore, you must've traveled the universe in search of evil to be eradicated. Isn't that why you're here?

Link: No. I'm here for a challenge. I'm not here to obliterate the masses.

???: Good, I came here for a challenge as well. My name is Morte, and you had better be a good fighter, or you'll end up like that elite over there.

Link: I know what you did to him. Just so you know, you won't get away with it.

After a failed Covenant assault on their malicious invader, does Link have the strength to defeat Morte? Can the Smashers evacuate the city in time before it all falls apart in a massive battle? Stay tuned...
