Thank-You for your reviews, The reason Johnson gets through so many Cigars is because he keeps losing because of his barking orders at the nearest trooper and dropping it out of his mouth. Getting back to the point, this chapter is going to be set in the gap between The Truth and Reconciliation and Keyes's day out, No action just storyline. Please review.
Chapter 7: Be all and end all.
"That's a wrap people, time to hit the sack." Johnson said once they had touched down and looked around the ODST controlled butte. Jenkins whistled a tune, and then walked down to the lower levels. Johnson walked down the stairs to the lower levels and wondered what the butte had looked like before the ODST had taken control. He halted an Ex-Bridge officer
"OK, so I'm gonna say this once and you had better listen up! where are my sleeping quarters, and where's the medbay? I need answers NOW! and I want them from YOU Kapeesh!" He barked as the officer quivered in fear.
"Thirddeckdownsirandthemedbayisatthebottomofthebuttesir!" the officer said, tripping over his words as an effort to get quickly out of the way of this smelly madman who had clearly not been off duty for days.
"Thank-You" Johnson said as he relinquished his hold on the officer and went down to the medbay.
Jenkins heard the familiar voice and decided it would be best to run away from the source of the commotion, before Johnson could decide to put him on active duty, as he fell on the hammock, he felt the effects of being on missions since the Pillar of Autumn had crashed, and fell into a deep restfull sleep. and was awoken by the sudden scream.
------------------------
Kapus was hoping to pinch something from the makeshift cafeteria, he had already found out the location of the officer's mess and decided a nice piece of realmeat was just what he needed. Having dumped his armour into his equipment locker he had put on an casual set of clothes which came complete with a nice hat.
"Whachoo Doin' down here boy?" Sgt. Lorez shouted as he walked up and prodded Kapus in the stomach.
"I know who you are Boy! You're one o'that Johnson's lot ain't ya? well, GET OUTTA HEAR BEFORE I BLOW YOU'RE FUCKIN HEAD OFF!" he said, the last part filled with so much command that Kapus found himself leaving before he was aware of where his feet were taking him. Man is Sarge gonna be pissed that Lorez is still alive, and I'll have to tell him of all the bad luck in the world Kapus thought and also wondered if Johnson had discovered that one of his cigar packets had a substantial few missing. and then he fell to the ground as he heard the high-pitched wail.

Bob had decided that he would be a good little marine and write up the first of Johnson's reports about what had happened since they had abandoned ship. He briefly wondered what had happened to Sanders, but put the thought out of his mind. He found a pen from Kapus's footlocker which had probably not been Kapus's in the first place, and was about to start to write, when he heard the scream
------------------
"JOHNSON what the HELL do you think you are doing in the WOMEN'S SHOWERS!" screamed Foehammer
"..." said Johnson Foehammer looked down to see what he was staring at and a bright pink glow filled her cheeks. She quickly snatched a towel from the rack near the changing room and glared at Johnson.
"WELL!" She said again, tapping her foot so that it splashed on the water from the leaking shower.
"Willyougoonadatewithme!" Johnson shouted. Foehammer's expression softened a bit as she replied:
"No need to shout, but as an answer to your question of course I will, but on one condition..." answered Foehammer
"What's that?" Johnson said eagerly.
"You leave the Women's showerroom right NOW!" She shouted. Johnson turned-tail and fledout of the room, closing the door behind him. Foehammer trooped over to her shower glared at a couple of female Marines and started her shower.

"Geez you were lucky to get out of that one alive!" said a familiar voice next to Johnson's ear.
"Bandana! I thought you were dead!" Johnson coughed after he had managed to clear the lump in his throat.
"Nope, but I do have one thing to say, what Did you say to calm her down in thier?" Bandana enquired
"I asked her out, but I do not have plans or anything." Johnson replied, to Bandana's groan
"Still you asked her out, and that's a first." Bandana said to Johnsons nodding.
"But what am I going to Do!" Johnson said desparingly.
"Don't worry, I have a plan"
