Chapter 7: Return to Sender
There was a
loud roaring as all the air rushed out of the docking bay, but the
unnatural, absolute silence that followed seemed far more
deafening.
The trio, grasping the bomb, glided smoothly out into
open space.
"Woah."That simple statement somehow
conveyed the raw amounts of awe, and the feeling that beauty had just
stuck a knife in your chest that Lynx was experiencing.
It was
like multi-hued Diamonds, whose clarity and brilliance were unmatched
on the blue-green marble below them or any other world for that
matter, had been set on velvet so black that light was absorbed by
it.
Galaxies spiraled off in the distance, Comets streaked by
leaving trails of fire like gashes in the inky-blackness,
an…..EXPLOSION!
A UNSC ship exploded below them, and even
though their faceplates darkened almost instantly, the three were
almost blinded by it.
"Gah!" Lynx yelled, letting go
of the bomb and bringing her hands to her faceplate in attempts to
do…something about the explosion of light and pain bouncing around
in her head.
"Don't let go!" the Master Chief
yelled to her."VI….DANGIT!" Said Munch grabbing at
Lynx's arm in attempt to keep her from drifting away. Lynx reached
out one hand, attempting to find her handhold once again, Munch used
his free arm to guide her to one of the protrusions.
"Thanks."
She said holding the bomb once again.
"Well That was
monumentally stupid." Munch informed her.
"Shut up
Munch." Lynx said, her voice telling him it wasn't a
request.
Lynx looked toward the Covenant cruiser in front of
them.
"Let's see if I've got this timed right," She thought.
"3……2……1……now!"
Lynx shielded her eyes just as a UNSC ship blew a large hole in the
hull of the Covenant ship.
Orlith popped up in the right hand
corner of her HUD(1).
Scanning… There was a pause, That hole gives us a straight shot directly into the engine room.
And that explosion will have jettisoned or killed any covenant troops that were in there. Said Cortanna.
Now all we need is a little flowery welcome mat. Titus added.
"….Doesn't this seem a little convenient?"
Asked Munch.
Lynx thought about this for a second before replying,
"Nah, I agree with the peanut gallery. This is to good to
pass up."
"It's a moot point." Said The Master
Chief, "We can't effectively change our trajectory anyways.
The trio drifted directly into the gaping wound in the Covenant ship, the Chief turned to the two.
"Stay at the mouth, make sure no
Elite's are hiding around, I don't want this thing going off
early."
The two Spartans nodded to The Master Chief and
pushed off opposite sides of the bomb so it wouldn't be pushed off
course too far.
As they reached the opposing sides of the hole and
Lynx pulled out her Battle rifle as Munch yanked out a SMG(2), they
both scanned the area.
The Master chief overheard the two unknown Spartans talking over the com.
"Your Eyes are
really that sensitive to the light?"
"Munch,
think about it, have you ever seen me outside without
sunglasses on?"
"Well what about when it's raining out
and-"
"ever?"
"……point…."
The
Master Chief once again found himself wondering what connection those
two had, but now was not the time to ask.
"Get ready to
pull-out!" He said reaching for the detonator.
The bomb
resumed it's high–pitched whine as The Master Chief re-activated
the bomb.
"Lets Go! Move, Move, Move!" He said
launching off the bomb.
"Stay together!" Lynx yelled as
John advanced upon the two Spartan's position's.
The Duo launched
themselves in sync with The Master Chief.
They had just barely
gotten clear of the blast zone ,when the bomb blew, the shockwave
accelerating through open space.
Lynx fought to control the sudden bursts of adrenalin that were coursing through her, she knew that a UNSC ship would intercept their course, which would have put them into re-entry, and not even Spartan armor would keep them safe from burning to cinders from the friction, not to mention the loud, slightly metallic sounding 'SPLAT' their landing would create.
Munch
felt his heart pounding, but according to his biosign's readout, it
was well within safe levels, he vaguely wondered what a computer knew
about what his heart-rate should be, then he remembered he was around
8feet tall and weighed about 3 times what he normally did, and
wondered what he should know about what his heart-rate should
be.
He looked at where Lynx and The Master Chief's bios were
displayed and noted that Lynxes heart wasn't exactly rock steady
either.
The Master Chief's was, not a flutter, it was though he
was totally unconcerned.
The Master Chief stared forward,
watching as the Blue-green globe got rapidly bigger, filling his
field of vision.He knew that they would make it, he had already
calculated the distance to travel, their velocity, and the velocity
of the UNSC ship, even taking into account the speed-boost from the
explosions behind them, but he couldn't quite help the fact that he
still needed to take a few deeper-than-normal breaths.
He checked
Lynx and Munches biosigns, a bit higher than normal, nothing to
worry about.
His eyes lingered on the line where their rank was supposed to
be displayed, it still had error messages flashing next to them, they
would need to figure something out for that if the two were to stay
for any length of time, as far as the UNSC was concerned they were
civies', and for a couple of non-military personnel to be wearing
Spartan armor, un-thinkable.
Just as the their shielding started flaring from the atmosphere, their view of Earth was blocked by the letters UNSC in black, and the three Spartans impacted on the gray hull of the cruiser.
The Com-system flared to life.
"For
a brick, he flew pretty good." Said Sergeant Johnson.
Miranda
broke in. "Suit up Chief, were going to take this fight to the
surface."
OK, just so 'yall know...Batman Begins rocks...a lot, I'm hoping to see it a 3rd time with one of my co-workers. just thought you should know.
(1): OK. I'm tired of
telling 'yall that HUD means Heads Up Display.
If you haven't
gotten it by now then you won't, from now on it won't be appearing
down here, unless, of course I have something to add.
(2): SMG-Sub Machine Gun, if you didn't know that already then what r u doing reading a Halo2 fanfic?
