Ranger24: Now is everyone okay on this.

Chief: Yeah Aang I'm sorry I gave you a black eye and called you a baldy.

Aang: And I'm sorry I called you no face and coward.

Cortana: So eyerthing's back together?

Ranger24: Yep.

Cortana: Then it's your turn to do the next part of the story.

Ranger24: Right on with the chapter!


Chapter 26: Breaking stuff to look tough.

Discalimer: I own nothing.

Cloud moved out of the control room and enetered the hall right infront of him were dozens of organizatioon soliders fighting a group of six sentinals. He held back and let them kill each other. When all sentinals were destroyed only two sound ninjas and one Elite nobody were still standing. He killed them all quickly with his shot gun. He snatched up a plasma rifle and made his way to the door only to be attacked by two elite nobodies. After killing them he grabed a few grenades off their bodies.

Cloud: I don't think the jelly fish have attacked here yet.

Areith: Um well...

Cloud: They did.

Areith: Yeah.

Cloud: Is fire team zulu still in the area?

Areith: Sort of.

Cloud: What happened.

Areith: They got in the dropship and were shot down in the process. Dexter died on impact. Kronk, Meg, Eddy, Ed, and Edd then got hit by jelly fish Meg was the only one to escape. Hogia picked her up. The Eds and Kronk... their jelly fish by now.

Cloud hung his head.

Areith: It wasn't your fault. You can't be everywhere at once.

Cloud noodded and opened the main door then ducked behind a portable sheild. Two dusks crept forward cautiously.

Dusk 8: Okay this weird.

Dusk 9: I don't see anyone.

A sound ninja walked up behind them.

Ninja 1: It might be a trick.

Dusk 8: I wish I had some taco's

Dusk 9: Me to.

Ninja 1: Why are you always thinking of your stomachs?

Suddenly Cloud whirled from cover and slaped a plasma grenade onto the ninja's face. Then blasted the dusks with his shot gun. The ninja's head exploded and his corpse vanished. An elite lept from cover and plasma fire splashed across his sheilds. He gritted his teeth and returned fire.

Cloud: God Damnit!

Areith: It's not that bad.

Cloud: You don't take all the hits except the last one.

Areith: True enough.

He kills the elite and sighs leaning on his shot gun.

Cloud: So what now?

Areith: Well I haven't yet isolated the location of the pillar of toon but we need to buy some time in case the moniter or his sentinals find away to activate halo's final weapon without the index. The instalations in these canyons are halo's primary fireing mechanisms. They consist of three phase pulse generators that allow halo to fire deep into space. The power levels are enormuse if even one of them is functional a couple billion lives are effectively screwed. If we can damage these genorators the moniter will have to repair them before the ring can be used. That should buy us some time. I'm marking the first pulse genorator with a navpoint.

Cloud: Got it.

He finds the pyramid crawling with nobodies and ninja's along with ammo and weapons. When he reaches the bottom however a ball of plasma explodes a few feet away from him.

Cloud: Oh crap.

The wraith fires again. Along with the wraith is a platoon sized group of organization soliders. Near by is a single unmanned banshee.

Areith: We should commonder it we'll need it to get to the pulse gerator in time.

Cloud: Alright I'm on it.

He finds a single rocket launcher with enough rockets near by to destroy not only the wraith but the entire platoon.

Cloud: Woohoo!!

He goes crazy with the launcher sending nobodies flying into the air and the wraith is turned in to a smoldering pile of scrap. He man climbs into the banshee.

Cloud: I've alway's wanted to use one of these things.

Areith: The pulse generator is just up there.

Cloud: I'm on it.

Areith: Be carefull it may be guarded.

Cloud: Isn't everything important?

Areith: Yeah good point.

When they arrive Cloud anihalates an entire group of enemy soliders then moves into the door visible in the rocks. After a few small corriders he makes it to a large room of simmalir layout of the ones he has seen before. Only difference a glowing pillar of energy juting from the ground.

Areith: Thats the pulse generator.

Cloud: Good!

He fires his shut gun till it's empty. The generator takes absolutely zero damage.

Cloud: Okay how do I destroy it.

Areith: I've rigged your sheilds so they deliver an emp pulse. The brust should disable the generator.

Cloud: But...

Areith: It will drain your sheilds to zero. So they will have to recharge before you can risk combat again.

Cloud: Does this seem to easy to you?

Areith: Kind of.

Cloud: Alright I'm going to take it out and run for cover.

Areith: Okay let's do it.

He ran at the genarator. There was a loud boom as his sheilds detonated and drained. The generator flared an angry red and failed. Suddenly sentinals poured out from several lagre chutes. he rain for cover as laser beams scorched the ground around him.

Cloud: At least we had a plan for this.

He pulled out several grenades both plasma and frag grenades and he through them all into the room. They detonated buffeting the sentinals to all sides. Several exploded sending showers of metal flying everywhere further damageing their comarades. He then ran full sprint for the exit but as he reached it four more sentinals came in.

Cloud: I think dragon boy's pissed.

Areith: Yeah and he isn't fussed about killing you to get me.

Cloud: And that makes this really suck.

His shot gun bucked and two sentinals went down. Pulling out his last frag and plasma genades he threw them out the door as the sentinals closed in. With the sentinals wounded he had the advantage. He attacked the ones closest to the door ignoreing the laser fire that was trying to drill through his sheilds. He broke into a full run and ran out of the building. As soon as he was out side in the frigid night.

Cloud: One down two to go!

Areith: Okay head down to the rock bridge over looking the valley. When we get to the next generator I'll mark it with a nav point.

Cloud: Got it.

After clearing the enemy from the bridge he made his way back along the path he had taken before to the second section of the canyon. Along the way he was agian attacked by jelly fish including jelly fish Eds. It pained him to have to kill them remembering how they helped him back on the ship. Soon he managed to find an assualt rifle with a decent supply of ammo and grabed it. Eventually after many feirce gun battles with jelly fish, nobodies, and ninja's he came to the elvator that would take him down to the second canyon.

Cloud: This some how seems a lot easier since I know the layout of this place.

Areith: Watch out!

Cloud looked up to see hundreds of jelly fish infection forms coming down the shaft.

Cloud: Oh snap!

He fired up wards takeing as many of them down as he. As soon as the elevator came to a halt he ran straight through the door.

Areith: That was kind of close.

Cloud: Kind of!

Finnaly he made it to the canyon. He was extremly glad he would never have to go through such tight space again on this mission. But then he relised he was in the middle of a battle. Elites in ghosts herded jelly fish into large clumps where a wraith destroyed them. Cloud ran for cover. He was in the exact spot where he had last seen fire team zulu. He went for cover in a ditch like structure. He found to small paths in the side of the cliffs. To his gratitude they were full of ammo even a rocket launcher!

Cloud: Time to showthose wraiths what I can really do.

He ran out of the ditch firing the launcher. Missiles hit every thing shades, ghosts, a banshee, and the wraith. The unfortunate infantry of the enemy was slaughtered by the explosions.

He then hoped into an unmanned ghost tieing as much ammo on as he could. He then drove off. To his suprise the cave that couldn't fit a tank could fit the nimble ghost. Outside were to ninja's shivering.

Ninja 2: This sucks why is our group stuck guarding these stupid box canyons?

Ninja 3: More importantly why haven't we already left this ring? With the jelly fish break out the council should have ordered an evacuation?

Ninja 2: I don't know. Stupid councilers. Hope the jellies take them.

Cloud drove the ghost out of the cave and blasted them down.

Areith: Well at least we got some information from them.

He then came upon a fliped over warthog. Near it was the dead body of an infected Krunk. Around the flipped hog were several cases of ammo and a pistol. Krunks sniper rifle lay snaped in two right next to him. Next to it was a dead elite stealth nobody.

Cloud: I guess those monsters aren't to stupid.

Areith: Umm we have dusks above us on the cliff.

Suddenly dozens of plasma grenades fell towards him he ran straight up dodgeing then deadly barrage. He fired on the attackers a soon as he got in range. His assualt rifle's armour peircing rounds tore through the lightly armoured dusks. As soon as he cleared the out he got in the hog.

Areith: I've got the location of the next pulse genarator. Marking with a nav point.

Cloud: Alright let's go.

Unfortunatly it wasn't all that easy dozens of hostile soliders includeing a wraith, banshees, heartless, and shades. Soon he reached the pulse generator. Unfortunatly it was guarded by jelly fish he had one hell of a fight attacking it finnaly he escaped with the pulse generator.

Areith: I have good news and bad news.

Cloud: Whats the good news?

Areith: I have located the pillar of Toons crash site!

Cloud: And whats the bad news?

Areith: The ship has security systems that even I can't deactivate without the captains permition.

Cloud: Oh great.

Areith: Let's get rid of the last pulse generator. Then find him

One hour later.

Cloud hit the pulse generator as hard as he could. Generator bomb as it went offline. He sighed.

Cloud: Finnaly we're done.

Areith: Okay now we have to find the captain.

Cloud: Then let's grab a banshee and get over there.

Areith: I have a better solution.

Cloud: Why do I have a feeling I'm not going to like this.

Areith: I've managed to hack into the rings teleportation grid. But it takes enourmus amounts of power to do so. So I'm going have to divert some power from your sheilds to power your jump. Without permenatly damaging your sheilds.

Cloud: Oh great.

The next thing he knew he was gone.


Ranger24: Well thats that chapter!

Aang: And only five left.

Chief: It's kind of sad.

Ranger24: At least we're so close to the end nothing bad can happen.

Cortana: Ranger! We have a problem.

Ranger24: Read and review!

Cortana: Ranger!
