"They, blew right through us, they are heading straight for Earth!"
"The same tactic they used the first battle"
"We are they going to?"
"Thanks, to Spartan-511 we have decoded that the data crystal, it contained data for a city on earth, Jerusalem to be precise," replied the ONI (Office of Naval Intelligence) officer
"Spartans, grab your gear your hitting the surface," barked the commander over the Com system.
"Better hang on," announced Malcolm to his passengers in the drop ship's troop bay. "Company is coming"
A swarm of Seraphs into tight formation and arched through space on an intercept course for the drop ship. The pelican's engines flared and the bulky ship plummeted toward the surface of the planet. The alien fighters accelerated and plasma burst flickered from their gun ports. An energy bolt slashed past by the port side narrowly missing the pelican's cockpit.
The seraphs peeled back and locked onto another target. Against the black of space, cannons fired, missiles sketched a ghostly trail. Covenant energy weapons cut through the night and explosions dotted the sky.
The three pelicans continued their way occasionally rolling to avoid debris. The flash of the blinding light signaled that the orbital MAC guns had fired another salvo. The pelicans began to flare as they entered the atmosphere. They flew over a long line of warthog convey.
"Looks like the cavalry has arrived," snickered Lance. The pelicans veered off for the brute controlled section of the city. Roy groaned, he had wished to go with the other marines, these brutes sound… Roy gulped he was actually nervous he was heading straight for hell and he knew it.
