Earth's Last Hope

The warthog slide around the corner gracefully, while the rocket fired by the Flood barely missed the rear end of the vehicle. "Faster, we have to go faster!" said the Master chief (a.k.a. John). "It's going as fast as it can!" yelled Pvt. Martinez The flood were charging forward in masse, with over 100,000 solider/worker Flood, 25k transport Flood, and well over 18 billion of those little spider crossed with a squid things! "Chief I've picked up a Covenant signal. they sound frantic. wait I'm getting a second transmission. it's from Earth. oh no." "What is it cortona?" asked the chief as he blew 2 flood zombies heads open with the Gatling gun. "The Covenant have found Earth and are attacking with over 12 billion warships, plus it gets worse they have well over 1 trillion drop ships heading to the planet and they brought there capitol ships, 127, remember the ones with pin point accuracy!" "Ma'am we're getting a message from our ship, I'll patch it through!" said Martinez. ". repeat we are pulling out, pick any last targets to bomb and get your asses in side, earth has been found and they're going through the fucking apocalypse, we have reports of over 100 billion ships." "Damn we've lost the transmission!" "This is Lt. Aaron I need a warthog over here!" "Where are you solider?" "The cave by the cliff, coordinates Zulu, alpha, tango, omega." "You heard the man he needs a rescue!" said the Master Chief. "But sir wait about the." "Fuck the ship" "Yes sir" The warthog slid sideways from the sharp turn. The other 4 warthogs followed closely behind. Yet they had company, 2 Banshees screamed down on them from the sky! One fired its plasma torpedo while the other fired its plasma machineguns at the overpass they were about to move under! "Shit they're going to bring down the pass!" "Turn right when I say!" The marine's hands started too sweet under all the pressure. "Now!" As the marine turned the wheel right the banshee in front turned right, right into the plasma torpedoes path. They now huge ball of fire slammed into the other banshee. "Yahoo" yelled Pvt. Anderson the side gunner. When they arrived at the cave, 20 marines ran outside. "It's good to see you sir, but we've got more wounded inside." "Roger that!" Then 10 men walked out with stretchers, in a stacked formation, carrying 10 men while they need 2 men to operate each stretcher. The Chief went up on a rock and looked out. "Holy shit, get all those warthogs up here!" When the other marines came they saw at least 600 elites, 9000 grunts, 250 Hunters, 700 jackals, and 30 banshees all headed straight towards the Covenat ship named the Hope of Tears behind them. "There's no end to them!" said Martinez who was now hopping out to mount his jackhammer. The 30 banshees spotted them and all fired their plasma torpedoes. The machingunners fired and got 27 of the torpedoes. "Heads up!"

Chapter 2: Zargfalt the Elite

(Translated into Human) "All men fire" "Grenade!" Then a blast erupted were 4 grunts used to be! "Hunter's fire on my mark," suddenly all the hunters stopped and charged their weapons ready to spill blood, "fire!" With that 250 plasma torpedoes shots rang out and flew to their targets. "Hahahaha eat that humans!" But before they could celebrate the warthogs flew over them and landed in the midst of the battle, while the human machingunners were holding the trigger down sweeping the barrel back and forth spilling his allies' blood. He only had a few men left and 1 banshee that was badly damaged. "Get down!" yelled one of the humans, while his partner pulled the trigger on the human made bazooka. "I'll die for my race!" yelled another Covenat elite that was rushing towards one of the warthogs. Before he could get there the human's last hope blew him apart using a shotgun! "Charge!" yelled another human. "This is the Master Chief calling in for Scorpion, and Cruiser support!" He stared into the visor of the Master Chief who was staring at him now. He turned just in time to see the last of his men fall. A human ran up to him and knocked him to the ground. He held the sniper rifle to his face and was about to pull the trigger, when the damaged banshee fired its plasma at him. The human dodged it and he could see a rocket flying towards the banshee. When the rocket impacted it blow in the right side, and the pilot was blown through the left side. He leaned up and looked around and saw well over 1000 humans with assault rifles, 2000 with shotguns, 50 scorpions, 25 warthogs, 12 pelican dropships, and 2 cruisers. How could they have lost to them? The master chief walked over to him, and hit him in the head. His world went black. "Get up you stupid Elite!" Zargfalt looked at the human from behind the bars. The human was pointing a shotgun at him, and he realized he didn't have a shield any more! Not to anger the human any further he got up and walked in front of the human. "Left!" said the human, yet when he walked left and saw into the chamber, he panicked. The room was filled with his allies' bodies, the stench was unbearable, and it smelled like a skunk thrown into a garbage heap. Before he was pushed inside the chamber, a strange siren blared from the room. An explosion threw the marine to the ground. While the marine was knocked out, he pulled apart the handcuffs. He ran to the window and looked up to see, well over 5,000 banshees. Each one's bellies glowed with an eerie green color. "They're firing their torpedoes!" Four banshees broke off from the main group and dived towards a human tank, the green glow formed into an energy ball and launched from their undersides. With a sickening crunch these new more powerful Covenat torpedoes smashed right through this armored behemoth. Zargfalt (A/N I don't care if this elite's name sounds corny) didn't wait to be killed by friendly fire so he leaped through the window, which at the time seemed like a good idea. Yet when he landed he noticed 15 humans wielding shotguns. 5 humans turned around and saw him, not waiting for them to react he dived sideways and landed behind some barrels. The humans were coming for him, but before they made it a Covenat tank's plasma shell landed in the group. Blood splattered everywhere, one of the humans was missing his head where it used to be, blood squirted out, another human was missing a leg and half of the skin on his back, while another was blown apart his flaming chunks went sailing through the air, and the last one was just standing there burnt to the bone on certain parts of the body, holes went through to the core, in fact he was missing half the skin on his face. The tank rolled up to him and stopped, the top hatch popped up and a member of the red fang stared towards him. "Glad to see you" said the red fang member. "Go, go, go!" yelled another elite. "Kill them ALL!" yelled a red fang member "Sir we came here to rescue you." The battle still raging on in the background. "Glad to hear it!" said Zargfalt as he hoped in the tank. A shell went sailing by hid head, he turned and saw over 5000 humans charge out with snipers, rocket launchers, shotguns, and assault rifles. "Charge" "Move up" "Die scum balls" "Ha, ha, ha, ha road kill!" Said an elite as he ran over 4 humans with his SHADOW assault vehicle. "Ahhhhh it burns, it burns!" "Leave no survivors!" "I will destroy you all!" 30 dropships left the hanger and headed off towards earth.

Chapter 3: .and the Horse you rode in on.

"Alpha wing follow me in!" Thomas screamed into the COM channel. " Ahhhhhh shit." yelled Adam as his ship blew in half. "Wait. help I'm sur." Shouted Arthur as his left wing blew off and slammed into his cockpit. Mc Knight flew in behind Arthur's remains and fired his rockets at the Covenat carrier. (A/N if u like Dragon Ball Z then you'll love this, v('.')v v('.')v Fu. (") (") si. (") (") on (^")("^) haaaaaa, lol I just had to do that!) "All fighters pull out, repeat we are pulling out!" "Captain you can not pull out, if you do down here turns into the fucking apocalypse!" "General we can't fight off a fully loaded Covenat carrier!" "Captain, General hold on, we're sending in reinforcements!" "What the hell are you talking about Cortona!" "The master chief and I are ready to go!" "Hell yea!" yells Thomas who is now firing all his rockets down an open area in the shields were a plasma torpedo is about to come through. The Covenat ship rocks to one side, and starts to split in two. Suddenly a Pillar of Autumn class warship fires at the hole and blows a wide crater in the hull of the ship. The crater goes so deep it pierces the outer armor and hits the troop decks. Thousands of Covenat elites are sucked out of the ship, then the elites shields vanish and then the elites started to expand, then they blew up and their guts splattered on the windshield of Thomas's fighter. Suddenly 25 Covenat flagships come out of slipstream right in front of the Pillar of Autumn class warship. "Oh shit!" yelled the captain. Suddenly the barrels of 25 flag ships charged up. "Evasive maneuvers!" The ships starboard emergency engines started and the ship slid to the right. 10 plasma blasts went off to the left while, one went through the engine room, but thankfully missed all the reactors. The ships sirens began to wail, and wail so loudly that you could hear it outside the ship. A plasma wave sliced through the bridge of the ship, and the ship began to tilt to the right. "It's going to blow!" With that the ship let off 4 huge sparks and blew apart sending debris in all directions. The remaining hull of the ship slides forward and hits the Covenat ship in the starboard area. The Covenat ship's shields start to sputter then died. A barrage of tactical nuclear missiles blasted its now unprotected hull. Suddenly 193 Covenat Carriers escorted by 965,000 banshees came out of slipstream. The now flaming shell slid in the way of 49 banshees which all tried to swerve but none made it. These new flaming objects caused a chain-reaction destroying 13 carriers and 65,981 banshees. The remaining carriers sent out their dropships, which headed for the planets surface. The banshees broke of from the group and charged for the fighters. "Omega wing watch your left!" "Alpha zero under heavy fire!" "Ssshhhhhiiiiitttttt!" "Beta wing move through!" "My god they're everywhere" "Echo follow me up and in!" "Roger that Zulu 5!"

CHAPTER 4: THE REPORTS OF WAR

(A/N in this chapter it will give details of human and Covenat assaults on each other)

"Last night well over 30 billion Covenat troops invaded the earth, we are waiting for an official report." "I'm here live on the plateau Sigma Prime, the fighting is intense as the Marines keep being pushed back, the Covenat are dropping in even more troops every second we're here." "Thank you Stan, in other news a raid on a Covenat outpost showed that the Covenat were planning an assault on Sigtor City, the Marines came to the rescue and saved the town from destruction, yet last night Covenat forces blew through the LAST LINE defenders."

CHAPTER 5: HOLDING THE LAST LINE.

"Get behind cover!" A line of plasma bullets flew over Lt. Chopper's head. 4 marines jumped down into his bunker, "Sir we got trouble, the Covenat are massing the eastern wall!" said Pvt. First class Minton who was firing his sniper rifle at 4 elites that tried to sneakily crawl up on the bunker. (A/W there is a new unit coming up) (A/N that last chapter was short because I didn't want to bore you with details from news people READER: ZzZzZzZzZz A: very funny!) "Wait, they are retreating, what the fuck is going on?" Suddenly 2 plasma torpedoes from a Hunter class weapon exploded in the bunker, thankfully they missed all 4 marines. "It's a BRUTE!" yelled the gunner outside. When Pvt. First class Manson looked he saw an endless stream of Brutes (A/N Brutes are half gorilla half bear looking creatures that throws grenades and carry the Hunter's Plasma torpedo launcher!) there had to be well over 7 million brutes that were now all charging their weapons in unison. "Ahhhhhh shit, get down!" Suddenly the sky was filled with 7 million green blobs that sailed towards them. All the marines ducked and all the shells hit the ground in front of the trenches and bunkers. (A/N kind of like this (')L- trench V-explosive [-[-(') bam swoosh bosh.) The terrified marines leapt up and fired in their direction. The hailstorm of shells flew towards the brutes. Artillery fired the chug chug chug made the battlefield sound like a pinball machine. The Brutes were still charging forward even after losing half their men. Ten Brutes jumped into the front trench, when they landed a rocket blew them apart. "Hell Yea!" yelled the marine who fired the rocket. "Behind you!" a Brute landed behind the marine and stabbed him in the back with its blade. "Aahhhhhhgggggg" the marine started to talk but blood ran out of his mouth and dripped on the rocket launcher. The marine held the trigger down on his Mounted machinegun, which sliced the brute in half. "You like that you like that, you want some more!" He screamed as load as he could, repeating the same sentence over and over again. Ten Brutes landed in the trench and the marine turned the barrel to face the new threat, he sliced them apart their blood splatters on his face yet he keeps firing. The blood splatters everywhere and he is now covered in it. 2 plasma shells flew to the left and right of his turret. He aimed at two Brutes who were now pools of blood on the dirt. The bullet explosions shot dirt up into the air. 6 Brutes landed in front of a human tank, the tank's barrel turned to face the new threat the barrel warmed up and Kerpow! The banshee flew away happy with its kill. (A/N holy shit I was in that tank good thing I ducked under the steering wheel thingy.) (A/W if the author should die this fan fic. dies with him.) The remaining 19 tanks fired in perfect unison at the oncoming Brutes. (A/N Music playing in background bum bum bumbum bumbum bumbumbumbumbum buuuuummmm bum!) The tanks fire in this rhythm after they all fired in unison. 4 banshees fly by being chased by 5 Longsword fighters. The battle is coming to a close.

Chapter 6: .Short lived victory.

"What's your name son!" "Lt Zeks." "Well Lt I saw you out there on the machinegun and I must say I'm impressed!" "Um. well thank you sir." The newly promoted Corp. Chopper handed Zeks a medal. Zeks was about to pick up the medal when 15 bombs exploded outside. The Covenat Bombers went straight down the trench line and dropped all the bombs killing 40 soldiers. The plasma slid across the ground and entered into some of the bunkers killing more troops. (A/N Dives out of way of rolling flames holy shit you fucking assholes gets on a gun turret eat this. oh wait is it time for me to check in already. one second Blows down 2 of the 17 bombers well you see I was broadcasting my story from earth so naturally when earth is attacked I joined the ranks, oh wait before that I was at Reach damn what a fight, unbeknownst to all me and my platoon escaped Reach. Ahhh shit barely ducks under a plasma torpedo here comes the third attack so I'll have to check in later.) 8 Pelican dropships land behind the marines. "Yahoo the cavalry has arrived!" The Master Chief and 300 marines followed behind him. "What are you doing here sir, I thought you guys had to protect Sigtor city!" "Old news my friend, the city is safe, now we are here to help you guys hold the Last Line." 2 plasma torpedoes fly by the chief's head and smash into the cockpit of one of the Pelican dropships. The dropship explodes into flames.
