Bloodied Gulch

By: RaptorRage

This is just gonna state the characters and a little bit of back story. The map that this is at is Coagulation, but I still refer to it as Blood Gulch

Equipment:
This takes place in 2570, and there has been more research done on the Mjolnir Armor. Because of this, the Mark VIII was concieved. It is no possible for unaugmented Humans to wear the armor without risk of breaking their bones. The Mark VIII is now the standard issue frontline armor worn by UNSC Marines. The wearers strength is tripled, but they still aren't as strong as a good old fashioned spartan. Spartans wear Mark VII armor, because the Mark VIII was designed strictly for use by normal humans, and Spartans would find them to be sluggish.

Political Situation: After the War with the Covenant, The UNSC started falling into shambles, it was literally split in half between a faction of Loyalists, and one of Radicalists. The Loyalists(Blue) were supporters of the UNSC, the brave men and Women who fought the Covenant and saved the Human race. The Radicalists(Red) thought it was time for a change in Leadership, and in policy. Originally the break was peaceful, but tensions between the two factions grew to a violent level.
In 2568, a Loyalist supply convoy was ambushed by a Radicalist battle group. They didn't stand a chance. After this incident, Admiral Miranda Keyes declared war on the Radicalists, so the famous Red vs. Blue conflict began. The war has been a very heavy one, resulting in the deaths of many great heros from the War against the Covenant. Sergeant Avery Johnson died while single handedly holding off an entire division of Reds, Spartan 117 died in a conflict, when he used his own body as a shield to block a rocket from killing Miranda Keyes. The war has spread to the edges of know space, and is taking its toll. No place is safe anymore.

Characters:
Gunnery Segeant Jade: A hard ass, who cares greatly for her men. The only real Spartan on Blue team at Blood Gulch. Wears Black as her secondary color.

Pvt Bob: Is an alright guy, he has a cruch on Jade, but it isn't going anywhere(happy aaron?).

Lcpl Gavin: Graduated top of his class at boot. Doesn't give or take any shit. Likes knowing the situation, and doesn't keep people in the dark about it. Nicknamed "Chaos" because that's what he brings to the battlefield.

Pfc Mac: Like to consider all possibilities before making a decision. Is an artist with a sniper rifle. Very smart, keeps his cool under pressure.

Pvt Kale: has a habit of holding Grudges, sometimes for the stupidest reasons, already has a grudge against Bob for beating him at Poker. Has an explosive Temper.

Pvt Johnson: Comes from New Jersey and brings the attitude with him. Sort of a goof off, but comes around when it counts.

Pfc Scott: Joined so he could do his time in the service. Plus the added bonus of being able to blow stuff up without having to run from Police afterwards was an added bonus.

Pvt Tom Troy: Lazy. Once said, "If I have to fight, I wanna defend, because I can just sit by a door with a shotgun and shoot whoever comes through without having to get up." Still a good soldier, because he knows its the only way he's getting home alive.

These are just the first souls at Blood Gulch. To quote Jade "Welcome to war, your number can come up at any moment, so you'd better make peace with that fact right now."

First Chapter coming soon.
