OMG TEH CHAPTER 3

i just wanna thank everyone who reviewed my previous chapter. i also want to note that this is set before the covenant had plasma weapons or shields. all they have is standard armour and projectile weapons (like humans have).

Chapter Three- The Fall of the unters

Rula and his team ran towards where the hunters with rocket tubes were.He stopped at a good distance, however, because he knew that getting into close quarters would be nothing less than suicide.

"Open fire!" Rula yelled into the comm. His squad began firing short bursts at the trees where the Lekgolo were hiding. most of the alienssuddenly turned and ran, butone pair of Lekgolo stood and hefted their weapons into a firing position.
"Break for cover! They're preparing to fire!"Rulascreamed into his comm. The squad ofSanghellibrokeand dove away astwo rockets zoomed past where they stood seconds ago. Rula saw the Lekgolo were reloading, andtook his chance.He had to actquickly.The Sanghelli captain lifted his gun and took aim...down the barrelof oneof the rocket tubes. the Lekolo lifted its weapon and prepared to fire. Rula quickly fired. the rocket exploded inside its launcher, throwing the two huge aliens off their feet. Rula's squad quickly fired at the fallen enemies, and both were killed. The captain sighed in relief.

"Good work, Team. Let's move out." The squad reloaded and left, gripping the barrels of their weapons tightly.

Rula and his team of Sanghelli heard a short burst of gunfire, followed by a panicked yell.

"Retreat! All units are ordered to fall back!"

"Guns out, team! we got work to do!" Rula said over the comm. They ran to where the noise had come from, and found a small squad of Sanghelli hiding behind a heap of rubble.

"Rula 'Selgamee! Thank the forrunners you are here! We've lost half our squad to the Lekgolo. We ran into a warrior group. They were outfitted with combat weapons. They decimated us, we are all that is left of Team 9."

"Stick with us. We don't plan to die out here either." said Rula.

A loud crash rang out, and they all dove for cover.

"They're here! We must fight them!" said the Captain. "Load up and prepare for a fight."

sorry for the abrupt ending, i promise i'll continue it soon.
