Chapter 15 It's Friging cold!

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

A lone dusk is keeping watch for his small squad near him are two shade turrets and several port able energy sheilds. Suddenly he sniffs the air.

Dusk 7: What is that?

Then pelican Echo 002 pulls up over ledge his squad has been watching.

Dusk 7: HOLLY SHIT!!!

He wakes up his comrades and they run away screaming. Echo 002 turns around and Cloud gets out.

Hogia: This is as far as I can go you'll have to go on foot from here.

Areith: Thanks Hogia. We'll call you when we need exfiltration.

Hogia: Good luck.

Cloud looks around to the door and see's the dusks are back with two nobody elite's.

Dusk 7: SEE SEE WE'RE UNDER ATTACK WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!

Elite nobody 2: Will you shut up!

Cloud shoot's Dusk 7.

Elite nobody 2: Thank you.

Cloud shoot's him as well then kills the rest of them.

Areith: Well your very talkative today.

Cloud hits the side of his helmet where she is.

Areith: Okay shutting up now.

Cloud: Let's just get to the control center.

He fights his way through sevearl corriders to a large bridge in the sky there is lot's of snow falling.

Areith: Intresting either the rings inviorment systems are malafunctioning or the builders wanted the ring to have inclimate weather?

Suddenly a voice breaks out over the radio as a pelican dropship fly's over head.

Voice: This is fire team zulu requesting imedate reinforcements. Repeat any UTSC forces respond!

Areith: There goes the element of suprise. And here I was thinking all toon forces had been wiped out on this section of the ring.

Cloud: I ... hope ... they ... have ... a ... blankey.

Areith: Fire team zulu this is Areith hold position we're on our way.

Voice: Roger that and please make it quick!

Cloud: Do ... you ... have ... a ... spare ... blankey?

Voice: We have three.

Cloud looks up at the sky.

Cloud: THANK YOU!!!!

He fights his way across thhe bridge which is heavily defended by four shades, a dozen dusks eight sound ninja's, eight nobody elites, and one angery elite with an energy sword.

Cloud: Why ... does ... this ... alway's ... happen ... to ... me?

He finishs off the enemy the gather's up the fallen palsma weapons.

Areith: What are you doing?

Cloud: Must ... make ... heat!

He finnaly gets a spark and warms his hands on them.

Areith: Can we go now?

Cloud: Fine.

He moves on into another room. There he finds more enemy soliders. After killing them he finds a small elevator and takes it down to the lower section. And another room filled with enemy soliders.

Cloud: These rooms are rather repeditive.

Areith: I know you'd think if they could build a giant floating ring. They would have another coat of paint.

Cloud: Yeah like something in green or yellow?

They go down a short corrider and find a small door.

Cloud: And where do you go to?

He opens it and finds himself in the canyon he had seen from the bridge. And in front of him a shade turret firing on.

Cloud: Fire team zulu!

Areith: They need are help.

Cloud: Yeah I relised that.

He takes out the dusk manning the turret and uses it to launch a counter attack on the turrets near by then he fires on a pair of ghoosts attacking the fire team. After it's clear he runs over to fire team zulu. He finds only three people Ed, Edd, and Eddy.

Eddy: The cavalry has arrived.

Ed: Buttered toast!

Suddenly a blob of blue energy crashes down a few feet away.

Eddy: What the hell was that?

Edd: By my calculations that plasma blast was fired from an enemy motar tank exactly a quarter kilometer down the canyon.

Eddy: In english sock head!

Another blast hit's the ground only few feet away.

Edd: WARITHS!!

Eddy: Oh. Oh crap.

Cloud: Do you have any heavy weapons or blankets?

Edd: Just a few rockets over near the hog as for blankets there with the pelican on the other side of the valley. That's also were the rest of our unit is and so is the wraith or wraiths.

Cloud: Those basterds!

He runs over to the flipped over warthog flips it over and looks at the Ed's.

Cloud: Can any of you drive?

Eddy: I'm twelve I can't drive.

Edd: My parents would never let me near the car keys.

Ed: Gravy!

Cloud: Why am I always stuck with morons?

Areith: I've said it before and I'll say it again. It's probably bad karma!

Cloud: So what do I do?

Areith: Well have done anything really wrong?

Cloud: Well does killing people in combat count?

Areith: No unless you pull freindly fire and or shoot a civlian.

Cloud: Then no.

Areith: Did you sleep with anyone you shouldn't have?

Cloud: No.

Areith: Okay. Then it might not be bad karma you might just be cursed.

Cloud: I thought AI's didn't belive in luck or curses?

Areith: Yes but we do belive in the improbable conicdence factor.

Cloud: Okay.

He get's in the hog.

Cloud: Can any of you use a rocket launcher.

They all point at Ed.

Cloud: Oh great we have a moron using the rocket launcher.

Another wraith shot hits near by.

Cloud: Okay marines...

Edd: Ahem I'm a navy technical officer cross trained in combat.

Cloud: Right me, Edd, and Eddy will take the warthog and distract the wraith. Ed you come in behind us aand hit it with the rocket launcher. Remember Ed you may only get one shot so make it count.

Ed: Cookies and milk!

Cloud: Right let's do this people!

They follow clouds plan and drive up and Eddy starts firing the warthog's chain gun.

Eddy: Yeah how do you like that!

Edd: Eddy don't taunt them!

Eddy: We're supposed to be a diversion sock head!

Edd: It's still rude.

Suddenly two rocket streak over head and strike the wraith right in it's main cannon and cockpit area.

Eddy: Holly cows!

Behind them Ed runs up while reloading the launcher. He then fires a third shot striking the wraith right on the nose with the missile. It explodes sending shrapnel and metal fragments everywhere.

Edd: Bravo Ed excelent shooting.

Ed: Twernt nothing.

The drive over a ledge and come upon a large fire fight bettween Chris Griffen, Peter Griffen, Dexter, and Jimmiy neutron against a dozen sound ninja's, fifteen dusks, and eleven elite nobodies. But the thing is the nobodies have brought some armor. Four ghost's are recking havoc on the scattered marines and techs.

Cloud: Eddy focus on the ghost Edd you worry about the elites.

Eddy: What about those ninja's?

Cloud: You worry about those ghost's I'll handle the ninja's.

HE runs them over as Peter griffen topples dead with five kuni knives in his chest.

Chirs: Daddy! No! Why do the good always die young?

Jimmy: Usauly death just gets confused.

Chris: Those basterds!!!!!

He attacks the nearest ghost blowing it up but is then hit by another and is sent flying into the cliffs near by. Soon however all of the remaining enemy vehicles and infantry have been wiped out. Cloud then notices a tank near by.

Cloud: Hey does that tank still work?

Jimmy: Yes it wasn't damaged when we were hit by the wraith after dropping off the Ed's.

Cloud: Okay let's mount up people. Eddy, Edd, Dexter, and Jimmy ride with me. Ed you continue on foot and keep up with us. Watch you back though.

Ed: You got it.

Cloud: LET'S ROLL OUT PEOPLE!
