THE WOLFE: Hello, its been awhile, eh? Been on Spring Break and W.O.W. Anyways, here is Chapter 3 of Enter: Halo. I did this on OpenOffice, new to me, so it might be a bit rough.
Chapter Three: Rough Landing
"This hurts like a bitch!" LoneWolfe screamed from outside the lifeboat, barely holding onto the door, acting as a parachute as they entered the Ring's atmosphere, slowing them down a bit. Needless to say, it hurt.
"Get ready to hit hard!" The pilot told the six standing Spartans and ten Marines in chairs. They all held onto something, bracing for the impact. After a few dreadful seconds filled with LoneWolfe's screams and countless swears, they crashed into the ground, sending the Spartans to the floor, and making LoneWolfe Jolt up and off the door, flying into a stone wall a dozen yards away, falling limp.
"Is everyone alright?" Apple asked, pulling himself up off the ground. There were several groans in reply, but many just from whiplash. He looked over to the pilot, blood trickling down from her skull, helmet crack open on the ground. She had been launched up into the ceiling hard and fast. Gurt walked up behind him and grasped his shoulder. "Lets go find Wolfe." Apple nodded.
Master Chief helped the Marines out of their harnesses. Luckily, only the pilot had died. Cat, Cookie, and hammer had gathered around the lifeless lump of LoneWolfe, chest rising very slightly. "If he hadn't of stayed on the outside to act as an air break, we might all be dead..." Cortana mentioned over the COM. The others just nodded. "A brave Spartan indeed," Master Chief muttered,"If not a rather dumb one." LoneWolfe groaned, startling the others. "He's not dead, thats good." Cortana quipped. Cat just laughed and started pulling LoneWolfe towards the lifeboat. Pieces of burnt metal flaked off his armor, revealing his smoke gray armor.
The large group gathered around LoneWolfe's unconscious body, discussing the plan of action. During all this, Apple was standing post on a rock nearby. He scanned the cliffs on the other side of the ravine with his pistol scope. Apple's gaze went up towards three purple blobs come down the cliff. After a few more seconds of watching them, he noticed one blob stand off as two came straight towards them. They were quite clear now: Banshees.
"Guys, we've got Banshees!" The others all scattered into different directions. Cat, Master Chief, and Apple hid under the large rock nearby with a half dozen Marines. Cookie hid in a large tree nearby, while Hammer tried to pry the Fuel Rod gun from LoneWolfe's hands, failing. The Banshees swooped in and dropped a bomb duo, narrowly missing the other Marines as they ran for cover. No one moved LoneWolfe's Body out of the way. One of the Banshees came close to the tree cookie was hiding in. He leaped out, grabbing the end of it, causing it to fall a bit before balancing out. The others watched In awe as Cookie ripped open the top canopy of it, pulled out the Elite, flung him to the ground, and got into the Banshee.
Now......How in the hell do I fly this thing? Cookie grabbed the twin control sticks, oddly looking like the ones on an X-box controller. He moved them around like the X-box controller, finding that the way it worked! Cookie turned to the other Banshee, finding it ruined from the others' fire. He changed his target towards the Spirit drop ship on its way there.
"Wait" Came Master Chief's voice on the com. "Let us take it by surprise." Cookie swiveled away, as if in retreat. The Spirit came closer and landed on the rock the others hid under. The others sprung out and surprised the ones inside, killing them swiftly, rushing into the cabin, killing its occupants.
"Give a few minutes to get this thing working. You guys go on ahead, leave LoneWolfe and the Marines with me." Cortana ordered them, Master Chief placing her chip into the ship's interface. As the others ran up the hill, they found the bodies of a Covenant patrol Cookie had caught in his cannon. They continued up the road/path (What ever that thing is!) until they ran into a battle between Marines, Covenant, and Cookie's Banshee. With swift retribution the small army of Marines and Spartans captured and held the area from Covenant attacks.
As Fire Team Zulu (Or was it Charlie?) called in air support, LoneWolfe awoke. "Have nice Dreams?" Cortana asked him sarcastically. He tried to rub his neck, but stopped as he realized both that he was In armor and that his whole body hurt. "Ugh... How long was I out?" "Long Enough for me to get this working. Now get down in that hole," Cortana pointed to the gunner's seat," And give our boys some support, I imagine this is going to get VERY interesting."
