1Chapter 2 (A/N and Disclaimer- This is the second chapter of the story, I hope it gets a good response, it will be in Links Point of View once again. I also don't own G Gundam, Halo, Zelda, or any of their creators companies)
I parked the warthog next to one of the Mechs Leg. I hopped out of the drivers seat and looked around. I put the safety on my rifle, but had my hand on my pistol, which was still clipped into my thigh holster. I looked up at the Mechs, each one had different colors and designs. There was one that looked like either a Football player or a boxer of some kind, and one that looked like a Knight. The other ones were very abstract, with many different colors and design features. I looked back at the Hog, where the Marines were dismounting.
"Secure the area," I began to say. "I don't want any Covenant to sneak up on us while we are distracted" I said, as I was pointing out vantage points to the Marines. They toke their positions while I started to look for someone. It looked like they moved since I last spotted them with my binoculars. I was searching when I heard the sound of machinery coming from somewhere high, like a computer or something. I looked up at the mechs and saw that one of them had a hatch open in its chest area. I looked for a way to get up there, and decided the only way was to climb its leg.
I grabbed onto a grove in the ankle and started my climb. It toke me almost 15 minutes before I reached the knee. The Mech was in a crouch, which was lucky for me, cause if it was standing straight up, I don't think I could climb that far with my bare hands. I pulled myself up onto the thigh of the thing and searched for the hatch. I started to hear the tapping of a keyboard now, so I should have been getting close.
I walked up to the open hatch and stuck my head inside. It looked like it was a rather large room, with a little mat in the middle, with Heads Up Displays, Moniters, and Rails, like a cockpit, but with no chair. I searched for the noise I heard earlier, and saw that there was a women in the Cockpit, she was wearing a red dress I believe, with a faded green coat over it. I stepped into the door way, if you could call it that, and tapped on the cold metal, she jumped a little at that. She didn't even see me yet when she started yelling.
"It's not nice to sneak up on me like that..."she began to say standing up. She turned around to view me and looked startled. She reached into her coat and started to unclip a pistol from it's holster. I started to reach for mine but she got hers undone before I did. She held it up and pointed it at me.
"Who are you?" she asked in a startled voice. Her hands started to shake. I had my hands up above my head, and started to think how to answer her question. I haven't really talked to civilians in a while, so I had trouble coming up with the right words at first. Finally I found the words I wanted and spoke in a calm, cool voice.
"I am Lt. Link of the United Nations Space Command, I saw your, ah, robots, and thought you might of needed assistance." I said, she started to relax, but hadn't put the Pistol down yet, so I kept talking.
"I'm not going to hurt you, so could you put the gun down please, if its because of this..."I said, pointing to my holster. "I'll take it off, look." I unclipped the pistol and threw it on the floor of the cockpit. She picked it up and lowered her pistol and placed it back into her holster. She seemed a lot more relaxed, and found it a perfect time to get some information about why she was her.
"I didn't catch your name," I began to say.
"Its Rain." she stated, walking back to her laptop. She handed me back my pistol and I replaced it back in its holster. Rain shut off her laptop and turned back to look at me. I looked around and trying to figure out how someone could operate this thing.
"Are you Traveling with anyone?" I asked. She looked me over again before she answered.
"Yes, I am, Im with four other guys, they went to go find firewood." She said. That's why I saw them leaving the forest. I was thinking of what to say next when I heard someone yell. I ran out of the hatch and onto the mechs knee, when I saw four men attacking my Marines. Their was a large rock next to the knee that I jumped on and slid down to help my fellow Marines, I ran in to the brawl with my fists at the ready.
It was a massive fight, fist to fist. I got a couple of good hits on a few of them, a few knees to the stomach, but they were pretty good at man to man combat. After about a minute of the fight I got punched in the face and knocked out cold.
Hours Later...
I woke up on the cold ground, it was dark out, so it was kind of hard to see. I leaned up against my elbow to see if anyone was around. My eyes felt like they were sewn shut, but I could just make out a few figures sitting by a small fire. I tried to get up but my head started to sting in pain.
I stumbled to my feet, and my head was starting to feel a bit better, so I walked over to the fire. Rain and her traveling companions were sitting on logs, as were my Marines.
"Hey sir," Phil yelled as my figure was illuminated by the glow of the fire. "finally decided to wake up huh?" My head started to throb from the volume of his voice, so I sat down on the log next to Phil and Josh.
"I don't believe we have been properly introduced." I said to all the figures on the log across from me. "My names Link, Im with Phil and Josh over here." I said pointing to both of them. "I don't believe that I have your names?" I asked them.
They looked at each other before they answered, they each went down the log introducing themselves.
Sai Saici was the first to introduce himself, he seemed like he was just a little kid, around 11 or 12. He had a very annoying voice, that would grind on you after a very long time, it really aggravated my head, but I figured it was because he was still so little. Next was George De Sand, who seemed like a good enough guy, dressed I a white kind of suit, I suppose. He said he was from Neo France, which puzzled me, why was everyone putting "Neo" in front of the Country they were from? I didn't really dwell on it. Next was Chibodee Crocket, an American, dressed in Jeans and a T-Shirt and Denim Jacket, I could tell he was a laid back kind of guy. Last was Domon Kasshu, he has a very serious look on his face, I could tell he was a very serious kind of guy, with a Cape and Headband, he looked like he was a sort of fighter to me.
We talked a while around the fire when I remembered the reason why we stopped here in the first place. I stood up and looked around for the warthog in the dark.
"Whats wrong sir?" Josh asked. Everyone was looking at me while I messed around in my Combat gear for a remote started to the Warthog. I finally found it in my Pants pocket and pushed the button. The sound of an engine starting up could be heard and the blinding head lights pointing into the forest.
"Have you forgotten our Mission Josh? Its been atleast four hours since we last reported in." I said in an irritated voice. I reached into the Warthog and pulled out a Microphone. I turned on the Radio and pressed my thumb on the tranceiver.
"Lt. Link to Home base, come in home base" I said, all I received was static, I repeated the message several time, but all the radio transmitted was static, I checked the frequency when Phil, Domon, Rain, George, Chibodee, and Sai Saici ran up to the Side of the Hog.
"What is it sir?" Phil asked. I looked at him in the dark, he was hard to see since the fire was behind him. "All I'm getting is static, we have to get you guys out of here, it isn't safe here." I said to Domon and all of them. They looked at me in a puzzled look, like I had to noses or something.
"What are you talking about?" Chibodee asked. "The Guyana Highlands aren't dangerous, we came here since during the Gundam fight." Now I was the one puzzled, I had heard of the Guyana Highlands in an old history book, but that was on Earth, this is an Covenant controled planet.
"Your absolutely sure this is the Guyana Highlands? And you never left Earth?" I asked. Phil and Josh looked like they had no idea what I was asking them.
"Why, of course we haven't left Earth" George replied. I toke a seat in the driver seat of the Warthog. Have we left the planet we were attacking? Who are these people, and I swore we saw Elites before I saw these people. I was starting to wonder if any of this was really real, or all just a dream.
