Thanks for the reviews.
The Flood
Jeremy walks out into the hallway. He walks along it just thinking to himself.
'I can't believe I failed her. If only I had gotten the program to work sooner then this would never have happened. She's probably all alone in some dark cold cell and X.A.N.A. is sitting there watching her die. I can't stand it; we need to get to her,' Jeremy thought
Then Jeremy hears something scuttle across the floor. He looks around but it's too dark to see anything. Jeremy then hears breathing coming from behind him. He turns around and something slimy grabs him by the shirt. Jeremy struggles to pull away; he eventually does by taking off his shirt. Jeremy turns around and runs into a black Elite.
"I'm glad X.A.N.A. told me not to kill the girl yet," said the Elite as he grabbed Jeremy.
The creature held out Jeremy's shirt.
"I don't want that, you just do your job," said the Elite.
The creature nodded and left. The Elite then stuck Jeremy with something, which made Jeremy fall asleep. The Elite left the base and the creature let its friends roam. The creatures start to get to where the gang is when an alarm goes off. The radar is going crazy.
"FLOOD!" yelled a resistance soldier.
The resistance Elite's, Grunts, and Jackals start getting their weapons.
"GIVE THEM NO MERCY!" yelled the resistance General.
Odd gets up and grabs his shotgun. Tara grabs her SMG. Ulrich gets up and grabs his sword.
"NO, Ulrich you're hurt," said Yumi.
"I don't care, one man down is like leaving one hundred of the enemy for the others," said Ulrich.
"I like his spirit, but the sword will not help you with these guys. Take this," said a grunt as he gave Ulrich a plasma pistol.
Yumi grabbed her grenades and pistol She accompanied Ulrich as they went for the hallway. Razor has gotten his assault rifle and was ready to leave when Z stopped him.
"Here take my pistol. You need two good arms to hold that thing," said Z.
"Thanks," said Razor.
In the hall it's hell. Gunfire rings out everywhere and every once and a while you hear blood curtailing screams.
"They're everywhere," said Ulrich as he shot three more flood creatures.
"I know, the only way to stop them is to kill them," said an Elite.
There is a loud bang and four flood creatures get wasted.
"That's right, bow down to almighty overload Odd," said Odd.
"Odd this isn't a game," said Yumi.
Yumi chucks a grenade and it explodes killing a few more flood creatures.
"Sure it is. Life's a game and I'm not playing by the rules," said Odd.
"It seems like they are retreating," said Razor.
"Never expect that," said Master Chief.
All the flood creatures have left the hallway. Then they hear what seems to be a soft roar.
"What is that?" asked Odd.
"I don't know but do we really want to find out," said Yumi.
The roar was getting louder now and then they heard someone scream.
"THEY"RE STORMING THE PLACE GET OUT OF…"
"EVERYONE GET INTO THE NEAREST ROOM ASAP!" yelled Master Chief.
The gang got into the room they came out of. The Elite shut the doors and locked them.
"We need to cover both entrances," said the Elite.
Razor, Z, Yumi, and Ulrich take the far entrance while Odd, Tara, Master Chief, the Elite, and a couple grunts take the door they came in from. Then they all hear the flood storm by the door. They could hear the creatures scratching at the doors and walls. Tara then feels something crawling up her leg. She looks down to see a flood creature on her. She screams and kicks it off. Odd shoots it.
"Spread out and search for others," the Elite told the grunts.
Tara was shaking; Odd brought her close to him. She wrapped her arms around him and cried into his shoulder.
"It's ok, the thing is gone now," said Odd as he rubbed her back.
Over with the others.
"Ok, so what do we do?" asked Razor.
"I have an idea," said Yumi as she took off her grenade belt. "I have four grenades left."
"I know we can use the fuel rod gun. It has a combustion tank that makes a pretty wicked explosion," said Z.
"Let's see if we wrap the grenades around the tank and then throw it into the pack of creatures then maybe we can get rid of them," said Ulrich.
"But we need to open the door to do so," said Yumi.
"Well if Razor and I can shoot off some of the creatures then you can throw it in. But we need to close the door as soon as she throws it," said Z.
Yumi straps the belt to the tank and Ulrich opens the door. Z and Razor shoot wildly at the creatures trying to get in.
"YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY SHUT THE DOOR!" yelled the Elite.
Yumi throws the tank and then the door is closed. Before the door closes a creature jumps onto Razor. Razor tries to get it off but he can shake it loose. He shoots it and falls over.
"DID HE GET BITTEN BY IT!" yelled Master Chief.
"NO!" Z yelled back.
Then there was a loud explosion. Everyone got down. Z had gotten on top of Razor since he was completely freaked out. Fire entered the room for a few seconds. There were loud screeches from the flood creatures dieing off. They heard scuttling as the creatures retreated.
"Wow it actually worked," said Ulrich.
"Way to go," said Z.
Z looked into Razor's eyes. She saw them darting back and forth. She leaned closer to him and he felt her soft lips brush against his. His eyes closed and he returned the kiss. When Z noticed that Razor had calmed down she broke the kiss. They both sit up.
"Are you guys ok?" asked the Elite.
"Yeah, we will be fine," said Z as she rubbed Razors back.
"He had a bit of a scare but he'll live," the Elite said to Master Chief.
"At least he didn't get bitten by the thing," said Master Chief.
"Even if he did we do have a treatment for it," said the Elite.
Everyone is now getting situated from the attack that has just happened. Then another Elite ran into the base.
"THE ATTACK HAS STARTED! WE HAVE FOUND THE PROFIT!" yelled the Elite.
Look the profit has been found. Don't forget to review.
