Halo 5.1 Guardians of Sera Chapter 36

"We left some explosives in that police station" said Paduk after the Raven pilot dropped the team off.

"And we're getting explosives here why?" asked Baird.

"I asked myself what would you do to get that boat down" said Paduk.

"You have enough to bring down an entire building?" asked Baird.

"I guess we'll find out won't we?" answered Paduk.

"What about Sofia? I heard she left the COG to be with you. Paduk, what happened to her? asked Baird.

"If we survive, I'll tell you later" said Paduk.

"Who's Sofia, if you don't mind me asking?" asked Buck.

"Someone we knew very well" answered Baird.

The team made their way through the ruined city cutting through some damaged buildings.

When everyone came across a courtyard, the sounds of mortar fire was heard.

"Mortar!" shouted Baird.

"Get to cover and take 'em out" ordered Fred picking off some Locust.

"We got enemy reinforcements!" shouted Vale.

"Digger!" shouted Cole marking unloading his Lancer onto it.

Carmine and Paduk were taking more Drones as an Emergence Hole was made next to their position.

"E Hole!" said Carmine directing his fire towards the hole.

Buck and Vale quickly pulled out their frag grenades and tossed them in the Emergence Hole before more enemy reinforcements could come out from the ground.

"Hole's been shut" said Vale as a drone was about to ambush her from behind.

"Vale in your six!" said Buck warning her.

As she turned around the drone got dropped by Linda as she sniped it.

"Thanks for the assist!" thanked Vale.

"No worries, I got your back" assured Linda.

"All clear" said Baird.

"Let's go before more of them find us" said Paduk.

Baird noticed a path ahead but there was Imulsion sludge in between them.

"That sludge will kill us" said Baird.

"There's gotta be another way" said Cole.

Just then a barricaded door bursted open and more Locust came pouring out.

"Those guys cleared a way around for us" said Buck.

As the team quickly dropped the Locust, they made their way around and saw a truck.

"That truck might be able to close the gap" said Paduk.

"You see a truck, I see a bridge" added Cole.

"There's an exposive tank next to it. Maybe it'll send the truck into the Imulsion for us.

Baird then shot the tank ass the truck decended into the waters below floating.

"Like a bridge over toxic water" said Baird.

"Okay, so we get the boat and then what?' asked Carmine.

"We head for Azura. If we're lucky, we'll bump into some of our buddies from Gorasnaya along the way" said Baird.

"You have friends from Gorasnaya?" asked Paduk.

"Yup" answered Baird.

"Want us to say hello to anyone for you?" asked Carmine.

"No" answered Paduk.

"Yeah...I kinda thought you'd say that" said Baird.

Baird and Cole opened the gate to the where the explosives were held.

"Why Paduk, how'd you know?" asked Baird.

"These'll do the job" said Cole.

"Uh...great. More shit to carry" said Carmine.

"You're one step closer to your boat" assured Paduk.
