I do not own Halo or any thing associated with Halo and will be making no profit off this story. This is the Civil war between the Brutes and Elites and will do little with the Halo games themselves. Please review as I will not post another chapter without reviews.

Chapter 1: Planet Symvonis

The Blue Elite Naiklamuu shifted almost nervously as the dropship lowered onto a charred and blood covered battle field. Even with the Hunters by their sides the Grunts, Hunters and Elites had been loosing to the Brutes and their allies. He looked to another Blue Elite the only other Elite on this mission. The rest were Grunts, the Grunts had changed with the outbreak of the Civil War. Instead of against humans they had something better to fight for, freedom.

the plasma bolt slammed into the Jackal burning its flesh and causing it to scream as it fell its shield flickering, then dying when it hits the ground. The other Jackals turned and rose their shields toward him but Grunts opened up behind them the Needlers needles sticking into the Jackals backs then exploding showering blood everywhere. Charging foreward Naiklamuu fired towards another group of Jackals one which was ill shielded and got burned apart as the plasma bolts hit it. There was an explosion and three Brutes ran out the front doors the explosion a Grunts plasma grenades from a direct grenade hit. Naiklamuu aimed towards the Brutes and squeezed the trigger...

Please review as I want to continue this side story to Halo. Also if need be flame anything you find bad about this story.
