For some reason I don't think you'll ever read the end of this story lol. Its just gonna keep goin and goin and goin and goin….a lot like the Energizer Bunny(Disclaimer: I don't own that either). So if you wanna read more and if u wanna kill me because yes, another cliffhanger, then go ahead.
Disclaimer: I can't believe I'm forced to write this. I mean, come on! Why would I own Halo? Why would anyone on this sight actually own what they're writing about? Aren't they already writing their stories in their shows/movies/video games, or whatever else they own? Seriously, people!

The Master Chief rolls into the Landing Bay on deck 14F. He was not surprised to see the Covenant presence. He instantly fires into the group of enemies.
Linda comes in from behind Master Chief and begins shooting down the elites. Once their shields were down, she threw a grenade into the pack. A loud explosion follows screams of panic as the aliens scramble for cover. Their bodies are sent through the Landing Bay and their blood now stains the floor which their filthy footsteps had just recently desecrated. But they knew that wasn't all of them; there were plenty more pests to exterminate.
Master Chief jumps down from the balcony and lands on the titanium floor. A loud clank echoes through the room, alerting the rest of the Covenant that they had company. He reloads his submachine gun as his enemies begin to charge at him. Almost as though they were reflexes, Master Chief dives to the left, rolls along the ground and fires into the squad of aliens, not missing a single target. He stands up to check if anything was still surviving. Nothing.
::Master Chief, we've got company in 14D. Get a move on it. Over.:: says Captain Rayes.
::Aye-aye, sir. Over.:: "Linda, you heard him, let's go."
"I'm all over it, John."
Not used to being called that, he turns and faces Linda. "It's Master Chief."
Linda just sighs and heads out the door to the Landing Bay. Master Chief jumps up onto the balcony and follows her through the exit. "Linda, it's this way."
Linda turns around and thinks, 'Does he really expect me to know this ship like the back of my hand?'
"Linda!"
"Coming, you little pain in the ass," she says to him with an angry tone.
The eventually approach the door to Landing Bay 14D, and, as last time, Master Chief kicks down the locked door and begins firing into the enemy immediately. He jumps down from the balcony directly into the horde of Covenant. He spins around in a full circle, emptying his clip in his sub machine gun, and watches as the bodies of the aliens collapsed. Out of ammo, the Master Chief picks up a needler and says to Linda, "Didn't want to help this time, huh?" He wipes the blood off of his visor.
"You didn't really need it, Master Chief," she replies sarcastically. She jumps down from the balcony and follows the other Spartan through a large doorway, into a room that she had never seen before on a human ship. "What is this place?"
"This," Master Chief pauses for a long time, "is our engine room. It's a new, experimental engine that used hydrogen atoms mixed with sulfuric acid that propels the gas particles to such a high speed, that they particles themselves have enough strength to move this starship. Highly explosive, don't touch."
"But why are we here?"
"Because this is what the Covenant are trying to get to. They have no idea where it is, but they do know that the Mohican is one of the only UNSC ships containing this engine. If they can get it to explode, all ships close enough to it will. Our entire fleet surrounding us will be instantly wiped out."
"I don't like the sounds of this," she says. They stand still, waiting for the sounds of footsteps to ring through the corridors, but nothing is heard. After about twenty minutes, Linda leaves the room. "I don't think they're coming."
"Linda, don't…" He was too late, she already left. 'Bitch…she never listened to her orders…'
::Master Chief, theirs a phantom outside the ship. It seems to be cutting a hole in the side of the Mohican. Shit, it's through. It's carrying some sort of…bomb…Get out here now!::
Master Chief sprints to the door of the engine room and exits. Running up the stairs, he hears the sounds of grunts and elites talking to one another. He peeks of the top of the stairs and sees that Linda wasn't kidding. They had a bomb, and they knew exactly where to put it. They began dragging it in his direction. A sniper shot rings out from the balcony above them. An elite drops dead, and the Covenant turn to face their enemy. There are guns at the ready, searching around for a soldier of some sort, but they find nothing. Another shot comes from the other side of the Landing Bay. Another elite falls to the ground lifeless. The Covenant look around confused, not knowing what to do. Just then, the Master Chief comes up from the staircase and empties all his needler ammo into the group of extraterrestrials. Linda fires another shot, killing the only grunt left standing. She jumps down from a hidden balcony, landing next to the bomb. "Well, that was fun."
"Cortana, diffuse this thing," says the Master Chief.
"Already did," she replies. "So what do we do with it now?"
"I think I know exactly what we're gonna do with it."
Cortana pauses for a while, reading her carrier's mind. "You are crazy, you know that? MAC gun charging up…83...89...96...100. Firing preloaded ammunition. Master Chief, Linda, get this thing to the MAC station. We've got work to do."
Outside the Mohican, the MAC ammo pulses through a Covenant starship, splitting it in two pieces. The debris collides with its surrounding ships, rupturing through the remnants of their energy shields.
The battle goes on outside, as more Covenant ships keep appearing out of slipstream space. They seem to be infinite. But their numbers would soon be dwindled.
The two Spartans drag the large, obscure bomb over to the MAC station. The security marines help them load it into the large cannon, and Cortana start to fire it up. "What if it backfires?"
"Then we all die," responds the Master Chief.
"And what are the odds of it backfiring?" asks Linda.
"About a 79 chance," answers Cortana.
"That's the best odds I've seen in a long time," remarks the Master Chief with a serious tone to his voice. "Fire when ready, Cortana."
"All heated up. Firing MAC gun. Cross your fingers."
The MAC gun explodes with an incredible force, propelling the Covenant bomb into the alien fleet. It makes contact with the lead flagship of the group and instantly erupts into a giant burst of plasma. The flagship's shields incinerate, along with the outer plating of the ship. The ships around it go off in a chain reaction. The plasma cores of each ship explode from within, scattering large chunks of debris throughout the battlefield. Only about half of the enemy fleet remained. "Nice shot, Cortana," remarks Linda.
"Why, thank you. I never get any comments from your friend, here."
"You'll live," says Master Chief coldly.
::Maser Chief, Landing Bay deck 16K needs help. Large Covenant boarding party. Over.:: commands the Captain.
::I'm on it. Over.:: "Let's go, they need out help."
The two Spartans run down the corridors of the command-ship two deck 16K. Once they reach the Landing Bay, they pause their movement for a second. "How big do you think this boarding party is?" asks Linda.
"There's only one way to find out." Master Chief runs through the already opened doorway. Linda follows in his path, and lays her eyes on the surprising sight below the balcony.
"Holy shit."

Yep, that's it. All I'm going to write for this chapter. It's longer than most of them, so I think you'll have to wait until chapter 8 to find out what the see. Until then, please review!
