Hey guys. I'm SOOOOOO sorry about the updates. I have a lot of homework, projects, and tests. Sorry…

Chapter 7

Mike P.O.V

"WHAT HAPPENED?" I yelled as I saw Jared fall to the ground. Sophia kept hitting buttons on her thingy-mabob.

"It seems as if he got a large injection of morphine from someone very recently…" she said. We all looked at each other.

"Those ODST's lives are about to get shortened." said Ellie with a slight grin, just as I took off.

Lead ODST's P.O.V

As I stepped into the barracks, I started pulling off my armor, just like everyone else.

"Those annoying Spartans think their so cool and great. But their just children that have no idea." I muttered. I heard a couple 'year's' and 'mm-hm's'.

"But they did smash Bill's shoulder. Hopefully he's okay…" The youngest and newest member said. Everyone laughed.

"Don't you know?" I started.

"We ODST's are tuff." Someone continued.

"And we don't get hurt." Finished another. Everyone grinned at that, even the newbie. Suddenly, the door flew open and smashed into the wall with a loud thud. We looked to see one of the Spartan's standing there, visor on, a knife in one hand and the other balled into a fist.

"WHICH BASTARD DID IT?" He yelled. Everyone slowly started backing into farther into the room.

"What are you talking about, man?" Joe, my second in command, asked. The Spartan wipped towards him.

"I bet it was YOU!" He hissed, then picked up a bunk bed ( those things are HUGE!) and chucked it strait at Joe. He mostly dodged it, but a part of it hit his leg, causing him to do a back flip. He hit the ground before he even started screaming and we all heard the crack of multiple bones in his body. After that, it was chaos. Two more Spartans came in, one boy and one girl, and they started tearing the place up too, though not as angrily as the first. For some reason, we didn't see the one who we dissed so much. Jeez, could these babies get so mad about a couple of WORDS?

I, luckily, was in the back of the room, behind a overturned bed, when a assault rifle came flying against the wall and bounced back next to me. I grabbed it. I didn't want to do what I was about to do… well, maybe a little… but I knew I had too, so I flipped up onto the railing on the bed with the gun up. But it was too late, the first one, who was also the biggest and tallest of them all, came charging towards me. I got off a few rounds before he hit me, but they just got absorbed by his shields. He knocked the gun away as he slammed down on top of me… hard. I could hear bones crack, but didn't feel the bones break.

"So I guess it was you, makes sense… you MOTHER FUCKING SON OF A BITCH!" He yelled the last part. He pulled out his knife, and I saw it already had a tiny bit of blood on it. I looked at it, then back to the crazy Spartans face.

"I have NO idea why your so mad," I said " But you should definatly put that down right now." He stared at me, with that blank visor that I couldn't see through, but I could tell there was fire in his eyes.

" NO ONE!" He said " and I mean NO ONE! Hurts my buddy. Especially with dirty stuff like a drug overdose.". I shook my head.

"What are you talking about. We ODST's don't play dirty. We just beat the crap out of things." I said. That just seemed to get him even more mad. With a scream, he raised the knife, just as another Spartan came running in. Was she going to help with this bloody, wrong execution?

"STOP MIKE!" She screamed "IT WASN'T THEM!". Thanks god for SOMEONE with sense. The Spartan, Mike, let the knife come down next to me, asked 'Who was it then?". Sophia kept running into the room next to Mike as ten medics pilled into the room, scanning for the most serious injuries.

"A medic in the crowd was giving shots to everyone bleeding out. She was going for a very wounded marine, and she accidently got Jared's hand. She says she's very sorry, and she's currently helping get him off his high right now." The girl Spartan said very quickly, holding Mike's arm down. Yet another Spartan came in the room too, another girl.

"Good thing Sophia got here in time. Listen, Mike, what she said is true. And Jared's going to be fine. Although I have to say I'm a TINY bit happy you did this. These guys are doosh bags." She said. Mike let his body relax as he got up to let one of the medics get to me.

"I'm sorry…" He practically whisperered. I spat out a little blood, almost laughing and sighing. I understood how this guy felt. Somehow, his buddy, Jared, had gotten hurt, and thought it was us, and rushed to defend him. Exactly what I would have done.

"It's fine(cough)… exactly what I would have done (more blood. By now the medic was doing her best to heal up some bones that had cracked.)… And plus, we ODST's never get hurt." I said weakly. The Spartan nodded in thanks.

"And Spartans never die." He said equally. He walked out of the room, saying "I'm sorry" to each person, and even bending down to check on Joe. He felt his pulse, seemed satisfied, then got up, but not before he set a note in Joe's hands. I looked as best I could to see it. It read

Unknownd Victim of my pointless rage,

I'm So sorry. I don't know what to say. You'll probably waking up in a ship heading home. I don't know if that's good or bad to you. All I know is that I will repay you somehow, somewhere in this lifetime… actually, as long as I'm here… you wouldn't understand that, but please, take no offense, and I hope you won't be permanently injured.

Sincerely,

Crazed, sad, Teen 4.

It was only then that I realized that, just maybe, Spartans can feel sad.
