Hey guys(and girls) I need votes! Should I do romance/drama or Action in the chapter after this? I'm going to TRY to do drama in this chapter, but I'm not very good at it. Oh well… let the show begin ;).

Chapter 6

I walked away from the group, still filled with anger and sadness. I randomly picked up a covenant plasma pistol, but a glare from Mike stopped me from using it. I decided to pocket it for later.

"Jared…" I heard Amanda say, walking up behind me. I didn't answer.

"Come on, you have to get over it. It's a videogame, after all. And we probably can't die." She continued. I turned around, flames in my eyes.

"Oh YEAH? Well then, what are those guts doing all over the ground? What are the blood soaked heads and cut in half bodies doing here? HMMM? For now, this is real. All those humans…are real here, so the covenanat that are the human enemies in games are now OUR enemies. And every single on Reach is going to DIE. So if you are all going to be ignorant about this, then STAY away from my fights!" I practically shouted at her. She flinched backwards, but continued to follow me. Soon, the rest of my friends followed me.

"What are you doing. STOP FOLLOWING ME!" I said with anger, but not as much as when I yelled at Amanda. But do you think anyone of them swayed from their path? No way. We were close friends, that's for sure. I started to cool down, and by the time we got back to our new base transports had already arrived, the medics stopping each marine that looked even SLIGHTLY injured, and everyone was heading to the ship, I was only slightly angered.

"Well, well, well, the newly famous 'Gold Team'. How funny" Someone snickered from behind us. I turned around to see a group of ODSTs behind us. I knew that their kind hated Spartans, probably because we took away their thunder.

"Yeah, what do you want?" I said, trying to keep my anger down. The ODSTs laughed.

"Oh, we just wanted to get a look at those mutated KIDS that are on the battlefield." Said a different one. Of course, they didn't know that we had grown up normally, had only JUST turned Spartans, but they still insulted all REGULAR Spartans.

"Go to hell, crazies." I said before walking away. One of the ODST's tried something very stupid. He brought his gun to bear and tried to bash me in the back. I turned around, grabbed it, and sent it back where it came. The gun hit the PRIVATE in the shoulder, and he fell down with a slight scream. Most likely a broken shoulder, possible fractures in the bones around the hit point. The ODSTs took one look at their comrade, one look at us, then tried to look serious while running to the ship. I laughed. And continued laughing.

"Jared…" Mike said. I turned to him, laughing tears in my eyes.

"That felt SOOOOOOO good! I think my mood just switched 180 degrees." I said.

"Umm, are you okay Jared?" Asked David.

"I dunno…" I said, starting to feel weak. Sophia stepped forward with a scanner.

"Oh no…." she whispered. "He's got high levels of…" She almost finished when I passed out. "Morphine…".
