Well, this is a remake of a fic I tried a couple of years ago. I said that once I read the books and had a better understanding and what not, I'd bring this back. Well, it's here, so read!
By the way, I don't own Halo. The peeps at Bungie do. And Microsoft, I guess. And I've twisted the story around a little bit so, it might not fit exactly with Halo: The Fall of Reach. If you have no clue what I'm talking about, don't worry, it won't really matter.
"Aliens are attacking the city!" A girl with light blond hair fell of the couch and hit her head on the coffee table as someone opened the door to her grandparents house, yelled inside, then slammed the door again. Rubbing the sore spot on her head, she stood up and peeked outside.
Metallic purple machines zoomed by, blasting what looked to be superheated plasma at the running civilians and buildings of Elysium City on Eridanus 2. The seven-year-old quickly slammed the door again as a tall, blue armored alien walked by, shooting at something with its plasma weapon. Running to the kitchen, she grabbed a stool and climbed onto the counter, opening one of the cabinets. She heard the door bust down and she quickly grabbed her grandfather's MA2B Assault riffle and M6D Pistol.
Jumping off the counter she turned to find a place to hide. She shrieked when she saw the tall alien behind her. She pulled the trigger of assault riffle, spraying bullets at the alien.
Much to her grandmother's dislike, her grandfather had taught her and her friend John how to use his guns. But right now, her grandfather was not there to coach her and the bullets were real, not stun bullets. The tall alien fell to the floor, dead, a pool of its blood gathering under its head. Stepping over the body, she quickly ran outside, an immediate mistake.
Diving into the small shrubs they called bushes, she aimed for a few smaller aliens near her. They squealed and barked like dogs, yet looked nothing like them. They stood about 5 feet tall and wore orange or red armor along with a mask. Aiming, she took a shot at one of the small creature's face, shooting a hole right through its mask. The creature squealed and grabbed its throat as it suffocated. The others in the creature's party turned to the bushes, but were all dead on the ground before they could investigate. Another alien, about eight inches taller than the others, looked around the dead bodies and into the bushes. It carried a large energy shield, a bit smaller than the creature itself. Carefully, the girl raised the pistol again, and pulled the trigger. The bullet pinged off the energy shield and the creature moved in, spraying an array of hot plasma the girl's way. The bushes caught fire and the girl quickly tried to find another place to hide. A bolt of plasma flashed over her shoulder and hit the building in front of her as she dodged around a corner. Crouching behind a waste receptacle, she watched as the creature passed by, scanning the area for her.
Holding her breath, she did nothing as the alien began to rummage through the different boxes and crates in the space between the two homes. It moved to where she was hiding, about to knock the waste receptacle over when another blue armored alien walked into the alley. It said something in its odd language and the two aliens left. Once the coast seemed clear enough, the girl crept from her hiding place, glancing up and down the street.
Almost everything was in ruins. A few of the smaller, masked, aliens patrolled the street, their backs to her. Using her pistol, she shot them in the backs, making them fall over themselves. A couple survived the shots and turned. She tried to shoot again, but she was out of ammo. She tossed the pistol aside and picked up the assault riffle.
The small creatures moved for her, shooting their plasma weapons. She dodged to the side and sprayed them in the rifle's bullets. They were all in a dead heap in the middle of the street a moment later.
Something suddenly grabbed the girls shoulder. She glanced down at the semi-clawed hand the hand her and then glanced up. She tried to wriggle free from the large alien's grasp. It held a large shield in its other hand that was thicker than the girl's palm. Spikes could be seen coming out of its back, making it seem larger than it was. The alien gripped tighter as it said something into a communicator on its shoulder in its unfamiliar language. A minute later, something answered back. Suddenly, the creature hit her on the head, and she crumpled into a heap at its feet, unconscious. Throwing her over its shoulder, the hunter made its way back to the alien drop-ship.
well, that was the prologue, but chapter 1 will be up in no time. I hope. but, while you are waiting, review and have a cookie. flame, and have some dirt.
