Halo 5.1 Guardians of Sera Chapter 27

Halvo Bay

Baird, Cole, Carmine, Buck, Vale, Fred, and Linda went to in Baird's mind the infamous Halvo Bay.

"Hate this stupid city" said Baird as he threw a pebble.

"What's his problem?" asked Carmine.

"Long story" answered Cole.

"Must be quite the story" added Buck.

Then out of nowhere a voice began:

"Only COG soldiers are this noisy"

Fred, Linda, Buck and Vale then turned around and took aim at a soldier holding a Snub pistol at everyone.

"Paduk?" asked Baird.

Cole then signaled everyone to lower their guns and said.

"That sidearm can go back where you found it"

Paduk then holstered his pistol.

"Those guys are new" said Paduk referring to the Spartans.

"Yeah long story. Look... we need some help...and a boat" added Baird.

"Then come with me" said Paduk.

"Welcome to beautiful Halvo Bay" added Cole.

"I bet it was" said Vale.

"No. This city's been deserted for years. Which is how we like it" said Paduk

"Who's 'we' exactly?" asked Baird.

"Come on. I'll show you" said Paduk.

"This'll be fun" said Buck.

"By the way Baird, you still haven't introduced me to your new friends here. They don't look COG" added Paduk.

"We're not COG. We're UNSC" added Linda.

"UNSC?" asked Paduk.

"United Nations Space Command. Nothing like the COG" added Fred.

"Who are you all?" asked Paduk.

"The lady in red is Vale, the lady with the sniper rifle is Linda, the serious one is Fred and the wise ass is Buck" explained Carmine.

"Hey I resent that!" added Buck taking offense.

"I can tell we'll get along just fine" said Paduk.

The team then saw a Reached Imulsion Rig in the distance.

"How did that get there?" asked Baird.

"Tidal wave, after you sank Jacinto. The wave was twenty stories high. Carried it in from off shore. That's where we're headed" said Paduk.

"That your place?" asked Baird.

"For the moment yeah" answered Paduk.

"I hear something" said Fred on alert.

"Something's ahead" added Paduk.

"Grubs. We'll get 'em!" assured Carmine.

"Oh great more of those Locust" said Buck.

"Keep an eye out for The Covenant or The Prometheans" said Vale.

"The what?" asked Paduk.

"Later Paduk, we'll take out the grubs" said Baird.

The team began clearing the streets of the Locust as their signal horn blew.

"Ah..the locals know we're here" added Cole.

As the gate ahead opened more Locust Drones and Boomers appeared.

"Not exactly stealthy are you?" asked Paduk.

"Linda, Fred, target those Boomers" ordered Buck.

Fred and Linda took aim at the Boomers and synchronized headshots killing them both.

"Vale you and I got clean up duty" said Buck as he and Vale "cleaned up" the rest of the Drones.

"You UNSC are impressive" added Paduk,

"Yeah we do kick ass!" added Buck who couldn't help but gloat.

"We do what we can to help" said Vale.

"Up ahead, that drone is blowing that horn again" said Linda looking through her sniper scope.

As the horn was blown a landslide was forming.

"What the hell is he-everybody move now!" ordered Baird as everyone ran.

"Quick everyone to the service station at the bottom of the street! Run!" said Paduk as the team ran for saftey.

"Go, go!" shouted Carmine.

"I'm not being by a landslide tonight!" added Buck.

"RUN!" added Vale.

"Bob and weave. Bob and weave!" added Cole.

The team made it to the service station in one peace.

"So tell me...why do we wear all this armor?" asked Baird.

"I don't know about you but I feel light as a feather" said Fred.

"Well at least we're not dead" added Carmine.

"Look around for a switch to move these heaps" ordered Baird as he activated a generator nearby.

When everyone went back outside some fog began rolling in.

"Errr...is this fog normal" asked Carmine.

"Nothing here is normal" added Paduk.

"Ain't that the truth" added Buck.

"Shh. What's that clicking noise?" asked Vale.

"Ah shit! Tickers!" shouted Baird.

"*pumps shotgun* oh boy" said Buck.

"Since when did Halvo Bay become a Ticker reserve?" asked Baird.

"This never happens to me when I'm alone" said Paduk.

Everyone quickly took out the tickers with great haste.

"All right. Through the gates" said Paduk.

"Paduk, we heading for that rig right?" asked Cole.

"Stop whinning, it's closer than it looks. Just keep moving" added Paduk.

The team passed through the gate and something didn't feel right.

"Hey Fred, This area could be a trap" said Buck.

"What do you mean?" asked Fred.

"Could be hostile snipers" added Buck.

"Fair point. Linda take point, I'll provide covering fire while Buck and Vale suppress" said Fred.

"Copy that" added Linda.

"Snipers! Get behind cover!" said Baird as he took the Longshot sniper on the truck as cover next to him.

"Careful these guys have Oneshots" said Linda as she took out a Locust sniper.

Just then more fog rolled in.

"Hey I can't see shit anymore! Where are they?" asked Carmine.

"Everybody get back and find some cover!" ordered Baird.

Just then out of nowhere, unknown shots were fired. Didn't sound Locust either.

Also the sounds of inceneration was heard as Locust began dying.

"What's going on out there?" asked Baird.

Fred then looked out in the distance with his DMR scope. The fog began lifting as he saw something he dreaded.

"Shit! Promeatheans" said Fred.

"The what?" asked Paduk.

"Wait, there's some new Locust out there" said Fred.

"Wait what?" asked Baird as he look through his Longshot scope.

"Ragers? Really" asked Baird.

"Fog's lettting up we need a plan of attack" said Vale.

"I have a plan. Attack!" added Buck as he opened fire.

"In case you were wondering Paduk, The Promeatheans are from our war" added Vale.

"They seem formidible seeing how quickly they kill Locust" said Paduk.

"Promethean Soldiers and Knights in the AO" added Buck.

"These Promethean bitches are making Ragers their bitch!" said Cole.

"They don't fuck around!" added Carmine.

"Few more aaaaaand that's the last of them!" said Linda as the area was cleared.

"Come on. It's this way" said Paduk as he continued to lead the team to the camp.

"So who are your people these days Paduk?" asked Cole.

"One of the reasons people come here is that no one asks them who they fought for" answered Paduk.

"Okay" added Cole.

Up ahead was a mall that would hopefully lead somewhere.

"Anyway through that mall?" asked Baird.

"There are at leats twenty ways through-if you are quiet" added Paduk.

"You kidding? Subtlety's our specialty" added Baird.

"It's been so long since I've been in a mall. Vale how bout you?" asked Buck.

"Oh yeah cause I'm obviously a "shoes and purses" kind of girl" said Vale sarcasticly.

"Forget I said anything" said Buck.
