Chapter Five: The Assault.

M.c and Johnson where in a recked civilian building, they where planning the assault. "We need a lot of marines." Johnson told M.c. "Take them all, we have to defeat them finally." M.c said.

Pelicans loaded marines. They took Warthog's and scorpion tanks.

"Let's go then, hussle marines!" Johnson shouted. M.c and Johnson got aboard a pelican. Longswords roared up ahead and left. M.c connected a LAAG gun onto the end of the Pelican.

"10,000 miles to the Covenant homeworld. Full boost, pronto!" The Pelicans launched from the recked, destroyed town of New Mombassa. The Cov with all there technology had already gotten to there planet. They where ready but where the Covenant ready for them?

They approached fast and landed outside the main base. "A full on attack sir?" Johnson asked. "No, use the snipers first then take out the defensive turrets then head on in there." Cortana told them. The snipers lined up and scoped in, they could see the new Jackal snipers lined up at the top and in defensive position. They fired rounds into the open, the bodies fell down, of the lone jackals blood dripping down the walls of the base. Scorpions opened fire on the plasma turrets. Ghosts flew in pelting the force. "ATTACK!!" They opened fire on them blasting them back by the sheer numbers of the marines. "FRAG OUT!" a frag blew up a ghosts underneath section, the driver was send flying, the ghost shattered into metal. The turrets where out, and the defence offline. They charged in but Prophets and Spec-op elites and Brutes came out the entrance. "Ho! Crap!!" A brute charged a marine ripping him into fleshy meat, sliced into too.

The BR bullets flung down from there position imbedding themselves into the Covenant. Blood pouring down onto the dusty, blood stained ground. It was a tough battle. The snipers took a good spot in a small tree land area to the east. M.c was in a plasma warthog with Sergeant Stacker. He was passenger and Johnson driver. Plasma burnt holes into the vehicles Warthog's and Ghosts blowing all around them, bodies showering blood, and screaming in pain. "Holy shit watch out for the missiles!!" Johnson skidded to the left a missile left a crater and had destroyed what once was a Warthog only burnt steaming bodies and boiling hot melting metal structure of the vehicle.

"Where all gunna die!!!" A Marine screamed then was hit by plasma. "ARRGH!!" he dropped, blood splattering down. "God dammit marines fire your weapons!!" Johnson ordered. Bullets rattled from a LAAG turret blasting back little grunties by the shear power. Bones crushing guts and gore.. The base was on flames chunks of it flowing freely in the air blowing up, debris falling on the battlefield dust blinding the sun. M.c fired at the tougher opponents bringing there shields down to a halt then the marines scoped in on there BR'S and finished them off. Mortar from the Cov side took out a tank. Wraiths appeared from over the hills. There swirling balls of plasma battered there area. Marines being blown away or just being hammered down.

"Set up the wire mines...DO IT!!" The marines yelled. "SIR!!" An engineer placed some C4's and detonated them when the Cov passed. BAM!! Elites where blown sides-ways straight into a bloody mess. Tanks rumbled through and ready RL marines jumped on the sides and blasted away. Covenant blood spurting from dying corpses. Blood spurring out covering the once was yellow rocky ground. "Marines charge!!" Warthog's revved up and ran over them passenger's firing down grunts and such/gunners blasting away with the rail gun until...

"Sir evacuate the area I repeat cov nukes in bound." "Marines retreat!!" Johnson shouted. "Recovering fire!!" A marine was shot down, blood splattered everywhere. All over the battlefield and up the bases wall stained in that position forever remembering the battle. M.c kicked Johnson out of the driver seat and got ready to speed of, Johnson jumped on the gunner.
M.c charged up full speed and went flying through the dusty doing stunts over hills and rocks. "Quick! To the pelicans!!" The Covenant knew that if they fired the nukes they would also die but so would the humans. The pelicans flew of, but only a few escaped, M.c jumped aboard one, the pelican was hit by the blast and wobbled through the air.

"Can't see a thing." The driver explained. M.c looked back a riveting line of a huge explosion tore up the canyon land, the base was only a explosion in the mist, the Warthogs and tanks left to die... Johnson was blown up to dust and ash, some marines gallantly escaped with there life's. M.c looked back at the horror of the Covenant's chaos for the last time the Cov where also destroyed forever.. just a bloody dessert left. "No!! The marines!!" Cortana cried. "Driver send us back to earth and to the U.N.S.C. Base." M.c informed. "Aye, aye sir." He replied. They full sped from the planet, the seeing the huge devasting explosion. "The Covenant's statistics went a bit wrong there they obliterated them self's and most of are marines the covenant are no-more thanks to there stupid plans." Cortana said. "Idiots..." M.c mumbled. "M.c and his remaining marines jumped of there pelicans they where up roared with shouts screams and laughter of joy and the end of the covenant rain..

The city needed repair, but they where all thankful of M.c's and the marines effort. "Thank you Master Chief you did well." The captain said. "Thanks." He replied. "And Cortana too." He added. M.c and the chip Cortana headed to the U.N.S.C. main base to do more duties amnd save earth from any other threats.
