Energy blasts and explosions sounded as he ducked under cover, peeking over it, he saw several Brutes taking down an elite squad of UNSC troopers
"Where are the SPARTANs?" a member of his unit asked
"Quiet!" Naofumi snapped as he looked around before a Hunter appeared and destroyed the Scorpion Tank "Shit"
"What are we going to do?" the scout asked as several Elites showed up
"Circle around and take the elites by surprise." Naofumi said preparing his M392 DMR
"You got it!" the scout said as he did was Naofumi ordered.
It was a true shit show, nothing like the simulations that he and his squad were use to. He looked around seeing Brutes, Grunts and Elites everywhere
"This is going to be tough to get through." a female member of his unit said
"No kidding." Naofumi muttered as he looked through his scope as a brute in golden armour showed up
"IS THAT A BRUTE CAPTAIN!" another member said
"Shh!" Naofumi said "Let's just try and get to that Scorpion." he said pointing to one on a side road
"Are you kidding me?" the scout asked "No offence sir, but they have like 30 times the amount of soldiers as we do, a CAPTAIN is there and who know what else there is down there!"
"Then we push through, because we're needed. This is our world; no matter what they do, no matter what they seeming think what we are. That is nothing to us because we are Humanity and this is our fortress of Reach!" Naofumi declared "And I intend to help hold it until we are ordered to retreat. As long as there are civilians asking for help we will not falter! As long as our brothers and sisters in arms continue to fight back we will not falter!" he continued
"YES SIR!" the unit said
"HOW DO WE LAND!" Naofumi shouted
"FEET FIRST IN HELL!" the unit responded as they reloaded their weapons
"We do" Naofumi said "MOVE OUT!" he ordered as his unit quickly made their way down the road
"Enemies THERE!" a Grunt shouted
"OPEN FIRE!" Naofumi ordered! The squad unleashed fire on the Covenant, a few grenades were thrown, but they did nothing against the shields of the alien foes. Naofumi gritted his teeth and looked to see if he could spot the commander
"GRAV HAMMER!" one of them shouted as the Brute Captain rushed up to them and swung the hammer, pushing the unit apart. Naofumi was panicking until he smirked and aimed at the captain's belt. He had one last round in his DMR and pulled the trigger
"GET DOWN!" he shouted as the bullet hit the grenade making it explode. "MOVE UP!" he shouted as the unit reformed and moved up.
"Hang on" Naofumi said making the others halt before the sounds of gunfire
"What is it?" One of them asked
"I'm not sure" Naofumi frowned as he listened, trying to figure out what was happening. Suddenly an explosion sound revealing a Hunter who was charging his Fuel Rod Cannon "Oh fuck!" he shouted ducking as the plasma flew over here
"Ah sir, I think I need a change of pants" one of the said
"On your feet" Naofumi ordered helping him up and looking around. He needed to get rid of that hunter, but he didn't know.
"Any heavy ordinance?" the one he helped up asked
"Negative" Naofumi frowned
"Shit this isn't good" the soldier said
"No it isn't" Naofumi said "MOVE UP!" he shouted as the others followed him.
G'day Guys Grizz here and yeah I'm posting just a small preview of what will be the first chapter of the sequel, which is basically going to be a flashback to Reach before launching into a brand new adventure. So what can you expect on this adventure, it will contain an original arc instead of the Spirit Tortoise arc before the other world arc where we will see some Halo characters who I have been planning to have show up here for awhile. Which hopefully you'll enjoy and I'm sorry if me sticking to close to canon at the end of this fic upset anyone but I'll try and do better during the next one
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
