Chapter three: Live fire
Kicker motioned for Hanks to take cover but Hanks didn't understand. Kicker grabbed two SMG's lying next to him. He peeped out from behind his cover and saw John firing at another helljumper. Kicker came out fully and then started running to the right while firing his SMG's. Johns shield began to drop.
He turned around and caught Kicker off guard. He sent one plasma bolt to his right. It caught a piece of his shoulder armor and almost singed straight through. Hanks then came out with two marines and began firing on John's back. Noticing this John picked up another Covenant plasma rifle and began firing.
Once he ran out of power on the weapons he jumped down and began had to hand combat. He took a quick punch to his back and then another to the neck. His shield depleted. He gave a swift punch to one of the marines besides Hanks. The marine yelled, his leg now broken.
Kicker came up behind him, clenched his hands together and nailed John is his back. John bleeding on his neck out of breath said to everyone hold. "End session." John said. "Get some well deserved sleep. We leave tomorrow at 0700 o'clock. Understood?" He asked. "Sir yes sir." The marines said together. Everyone turned on their left heel and marched out. John took some deep breaths.
He started walking back to his quarters and he slammed into the hallway wall along with everyone else. He went to a viewpoint and saw something he hadn't seen in years. He ran to his quarters got his battle armor on and got Cortana. "Cortana? Cortana are you there?" John asked the AI now conveniently stuck in his head. Waking up from a nice sleep Cortana said. "What's the matter now?" she asked. "We've got a nasty problem." John said sadly.
