was barricaded in the control room. But it wasn\'t going to be safe for long, he could hear them pounding against the door. A electrician was working on the power when he spilled his coffee and the whole thing short circuited. Or atleast he was told he got up and walked towards the window, their was none of them were outside, but he could still hear screaming and gunshots out there. He opened the window and jumped out. He grabbed a LC-651 from a dead trooper. And he ran north, his idea was to reach the emergency bunker. He turned left and saw a alien slice out a troopers neck, splattering blood all over his dead ally\'s. the \"fire alien\" looked at silver began to run towards him, he fired a grenade and splattered the bastard into a million bits. He saw the marine who had his neck sliced open writhing on the ground, he walked up to him and put 14 rounds into his head. He then ran down a alley and saw to aliens on a wall, he wasted them with a grenade. He came back out into one of the main Rhodes and saw a battle raging one of the troopers is stung by the aliens tail another marine kills the alien that stung his friend but another alien put it\'s jaws into his head. Silver ran up to the alien and wasted it with 15 rounds, the alien flew back and broke threw a shop window. He walked up to the wounded soldier.

\"silver please hel…….\"

BLAAAAAAAM-BLAAAAM-BLAM-BLAM

Silver ended the soldier\'s pain. And he started running again. He finally reached the bunker, he locked the door behind him and walked down the stair\'s and slung his pulse rifle on a table and sat down.

\"Now what do I do?\"

he asked himself . he got a can of fruit cocktail and thought about everything. The communications have been out for three day\'s. surely someone had sent a distress signal sense then. He\'d wait it out.



Mequel walked to \"Bay 3\" of gateway station, where the \"liberty\" ship was being loaded. The liberty was Jennings\'s ship. He and his men were waiting for him, so Mequel picked up his pace a little. Finally he reached bay 3 he opened the door and the ship. It was beautiful, it resembled the rokyata, his former ship. A woman with a medic patch on her jacket walked up to him
\"you must be Mequel, Steve told us about you\"

\"you mean Jennings?\"

\"we just call him Steve, or boss, only duke call\'s him Jennings. But enough about that. IM Karen.\"

\"nice to meet you Karen\"


the two shake hands.

\"I see Steve coming now\"

Mequel looked and saw Jennings walking towards them.

\"hello Mequel, I see you\'ve met Karen are medic.\"

Mequel shakes his head.

\"let me introduce you to the rest of are squad\"

Jennings took Mequel inside the ship and to the artillery room where DUKE is loading the pulse rifles and smartguns. Duke looks like he works out a lot, he is a large, black man with a tattoo of a grinning skull on his left arm.

\"duke Mequel, Mequel duke\"

\"nice to meet ya\' \"

he said in a heavy voice.

\"same here\"

Mequel said shaking the mans hand.

Next Mequel met Claire, the heavy weapons specialist. She didn\'t look like a marine. But she could lift a mini-gun so Mequel kept quiet.

Next he met Charlie, the kind-quiet Japanese-American sniper.

Robby, and Tyler. The smartgunner-brother\'s that joined the marines together.

Max the demolitionist

And finally Rick and Gail, the explosive-disarms. Jennings began to talk to Mequel.


\"Mequel, tell me about your last mission before you were suspended\"

\"we were sent to check out the colony on lx-121, when we arrived the colony was a ghost town. We met a survivor named Kirk, he told us that the colonists had hidden in the adjacent temple, we went to check it out. But these-these aliens attacked us. They killed off half the squad. And my brother Carlos. When we finally contacted the two marines we left on the ship, Tom and Adam. Someone launched a nuclear missile, it was aimed at the atmosphere processor. When we reached the launching pad, we heard Kirk screaming and the super-alien thing ate him. We killed it and escaped, but a lot of my friends died on that mission\"

Jennings looks at Mequel and asks another question

\"and then?\"

\"we were all suspended, no one believed us, you probably think IM crazy right?\"

\"no. I really don\'t \"


Mequel told the rest of the marine\'s his story at dinner. Then it was time to go into cryo-sleep

\"hey Tyler, want me to get your teddy bear\"

asked duke

\"fuck you duke\"

then they all went into their deep sleep that would last two months.
