Scythe:

Talfie:

Captain bullet?

=He lies there, still unconsious.=

Code:

Hey! Wake up! Wake up!

(CAPT. Johan)

"Snipers....take aim on the Spartans on the ground." I look at the screens of my four snipers taking aim on the Spartans. "Ready, aim, Fire." All four of us fire, four shots, four bodies. "Good shots."

(Collins)

I crawl to the closest building, and hit the door, the door opens, and I get pulled in.

(Get back into the cockpit)

(I look at the ground)

Grendel, Thermals. NOW.

Code:

Roger, thermals activated

(I see man sized thermals in a clearing)

What am I seeing?

Code:

Apparently its a sniper team. And the team is exposed.

Not on my watch. Can you make a firing solution with the Anvils on the snipers using the thermals?

Code:

Indeed I can, One.

Do it, and give me the missile and chaingun controls.

Code:

Done. Fire at will, One

Roger, bring me in and I'll hit them

(Grendel takes the Pelican and I straife them with rockets and missiles, taking out the team)

That was for Kait and my team, you bastards...

(Lana)
=i feel a small jolt and I head up to the bridge=
Hey, you. Would it be too wild a guess to say that we landed?


(Dormii)
=i finish my food and go put the tray away on the counter=
Captain of the Dead and Back. Where's a mask all the time, got these black lines and shapes and stuff all over it. Crosshair on the temple. Trust me, you can't forget a mask like that. Anyway, his ship is nearby, maybe we can go explore it.

=i shrug=
It's an idea.

(He could not rest)
(He had been staring at the ceiling the entire time)

I should really try to sleep

(He stands and goes to his armor)
(He puts it on and heads to the messhall)

(Looking at the people)
(He enters the messhall and sees Dormii, Zeru, Syaa, and a person he has yet to meet)

Well

(He walks up to the counter to get an apple)
(He nods to Dormii and heads to the table)

(He sits down)

A medic patches up my two wounds, and gives me a shot of morphine. "Thank you medic." I get up and grab a Rifle, and walk outside. I put on a earpiece. "Spartans are down! We still got a well armed Pelican in the area. Do we have anything?!"

"No, AA guns are down.....I don't know about Jackhammers!"

"I found a Jackhammer!"

"Get it on that damn Pelican then!"


I take the earpiece off. That's what you get O.N.I...it's what you fucking get."

i was thinking of swimming some more but... there's only those revolting one piece suits...

=i shudder=

although it did show off my body...

=i shake my head=

eww no

uhh.... hmm.

Scythe:

=sleeping=

(Aaron)

(Wakes up grogily)

(Feels a bullet wound)

Damn, some marksmanship.

Team, any callsign, report status.

Jeremy: Black Seven, injured but alive.

Alexi: Black Five, green, sir.

Jordan: Black Two, good to go.

Jack: Black Four. I'm not feeling so good.

Kait: Black Six here, I'm not well at all.

Me: Black One here, green and very, very mean.

(Aaron goes to Kait)

Aaron: Hold on, Six. I'm here.

(Alexi moves in the Hog to povide cover)

(Pelican takes position guarding the LZ)

(I pick up a heat sig)

Me: Jackhammer! Grendel get us out of here!

Code:

Moving. I advise ground team moves also.

(Black Team scatters and ditches the Hog)

(Grendel uses the hacked system to pick up something on a camera)

Code:

Not on my watch, Innies. This is MY sky now.

(Jackhammer detonates, sending shapnel into the Pelican)

(Too close)

(Jack spies something)

Jack: Lead, I see the smoke trail.

Aaron: Lucas, TAKE IT OUT!

Lucas: Hold on. Got it.

(Lucas hits the laucher out of the man's hand)

(He takes off his helmet and holds his hand out for a handshake to Talfie)

Dante.
Or as people around here call me, Draco.

(He takes the apple with his robotic hand and takes a bite)

Code:

WAKE THE FUCK UP!

=He just lies there.=

(Dormii)
=i nod to Draco and chuckle=
Well, then I'm all out of ideas, aside from exploring Bullet's ship.

=i look over at Draco=
Oh, hey, Draco, you going to go on the mission with us?

(Lana)
Hey, Kurbis, you awake?

=i check and see he is asleep=
Well, then.

(He continues to hold his hand out)
(He looks at Dormii)

I have been secluded in training and sleep.
I am going to need an update.
What Mission?

(Dormii)
=i laugh, lightly=
Zero, a new member, Dylon, captain of the Dead and Back, myself, and Talfie here, I think, are going to go blow up the Azure Comet. Every little bit helps in terms of manpower.

= i stop spinning my umbrella=

I'm Talfie... or sometimes Taffy

=i stare at his arm=

...

Hmm.

(I recount my knowledge of the Azure Comet and the soldiers)
(He smiles)

Well. I got a Covenant Supercruiser.
I think that will help

(He takes another bite of the apple)

(He looks back at Talfie)

It is nice to meet you

(He notices her staring)

Yeah. I lost my arm a long time ago.

"ARE THE SPARTANS STILL UP!" I hear through the earpiece that's off my ear. I put it back on.

"Uh.....stand by sir!......YUP, THERE UP! THERE UP!"

I hear large Rifle fire go on the Warthog.

"Can we get a tank up?" I ask through the ear piece.

"You can try!"


I run up to my Warthog. "Kyle....you there?"

*Thought you were dead?*

"No." I open the engine, and grab his A.I Component, and walk back to the Motor pool. I go to the back to the tank, and hook him up to the engine. "You good kyle?"

*Smart idea....very smart idea*

(Dormii)
=i raise an eyebrow=
Oh, really now? Where'd you get that?

i wonder how rain is doing...

sorry for your loss...

= i blast a large flame from the top of my umbrella=

Code:

WAKE UP! WAKE UP! YOU WILL WAKE UP NOW!

=He lies there... Dreaming...=

(Dante)
I obtained it.

(He thinks)

On my second time back here.

(He looks back to Talfie)

It is quite alright.

(He sees the flames)
(He smiles)

Flamethrower.
Very Nice. Talfie.

(Rain)

=I shoot up=

Jesus. I need to stop doing that.

=I stand, removing the IV and such=
=I head to the messhall=

(Dormii)
You're gonna hurt someone if you keep doing that.

(Grendel gets a report)

Code:

Foreign A.I. Detected. Reccomendation: Nuetralization.

(Grendel, tracks the A.I)

(I see rifle fire on our Hog)

Oh, no you don't...

(I fire the chaingun into source of rifle fire)

Not getting away with that, are ya?

(Grendel picks up chatter)

Code:

Leader.I got something on radio, they're trying to leave by tank

(Aaron)

Roger that. Jordan, Jeremy, Jack. Take a position on the hill and ambush the tank.

J,J, and J Will do, sir.

(Jeremy, Jordan and Jack take our Hog and take up position on the hill)

Code:

 Hello, Kyle, nice to see you. In case you haven't noticed, it's MY system now. Hope you enjoy Hell, you traitorous bastard.

(Aaron)

(Sees Artyom on the ground)

Hold on!

(He sees the wounds and sets to caring for them)

You aren't dying on me now. Not like this. Alexi, give me a hand here!

Alexi: Coming, boss. I'll hold him.

(Alexi looks at Artyom)

Alexi: You will be okay, comrade.

Aaron: Jeremy, Matt; you have the tank. Matt, take out its engine first.

Jeremy and Me: Yes, sir.

Me: Grendel forget the A.I. We're taking the tank.

Code:

Got it, One. I'm getting out of tank's range. You have shot, One.

Thanks, Grendel.

Wait for it...wait for it...

rain!

=i run up to him=

how are you?

(Dormii)
Hyper little thing...

=i look over at Draco=
Wanna go explore Captain Bullet's ship? Just met him, so I can't really give you his personality, but he seems fair, to his own mind at least.

=I see Talfie run up to me=

Hey. Talfie.
Im...doin well.

=I tap my head=

Just a small bump on mah noggin is all

=I smile=


(He looks over at his cousin)

Well

(He nods)

Alright. Might as well. Nothing else to do.

(Dormii)
=i nod and put my helmet on, opening a comm to Bullet=
Hey, Bullet, this is Dormii Fortuni. I was wondering if you would allow me and a friend or maybe several friends to come and explore your ship.

(Dylon)
=i get the comm and reply=
Sure. Just let me know how many okay? And when are we going to start this damn mission?

(Dormii)
Once Zero is ready. Whenever that may be.

=i look at Draco=
All set. You ready?

i'm thinking of going to the pool, wanna come?*giggle*

or follow dormii and draco?

Code:

Wake up. Wake up. Wake up now!

=He dreams... Thinking of his home... Before it all started...=

(Dante)
(He checks his weapons)

Nullifier.
Handcannon.
Hydra.
Angel Maker.

(He nods)

Yes. I am ready.


(Sarah)
(She wakes up slowly)
(She stretches and puts on a new set of clothes)
(She heads out the door, looking for Dante)


(Rain)

=I smile=

Much rather be in the pool

=I look at her=

=i blush=

uhh, sure then... let's go.

(Rain)
=I smile=

Youre blushin.

=I shake my head and laugh=
=I lead her out into the hallway and to the pool=


(Sarah)
(She sees Rain and another person exit the messhall)

Hmm

(She walks passed them)

Hello

(She walks into the messhall)


(Dante)
(He sees the two exit and Sarah enter)
(He waves her over)

(She walks up to him)

Dante-We are going to explore a. I am guessing friendly ship. Want to join?

(She nods)

Sarah-Yes. I would.

=He partially wakes up, his vison blurry, not being able to move.=

Did... We... Get... 'Em...

=He blacks out once again.=

no I'm not!

... who was that?

=we walk into the rec room=

(Aaron)

@Artyom. Not yet, Spartan. But we're close to doing it.

Now stay still, and let me get some blood in you.

(Aaron gets out a blood pack)

Now hold on, this might hurt a little bit.

Alexi: If you're alive, squeeze my hand.

Akexi: You will be okay, my friend.

=He wakes up slightly more this time, his vision still blurry, but he has slight control over his body.=

Reznov... What... Happened... To... Him...

(Pvt. Don)

I sit behind the warthog team, I heard it come up, and I hid. I contemplate what to do. I take out my three grenades, take a deep breath. I lob them under the Hog. They go off, launching the Hog up into the air.

(1st. LT. "Shotty")

"Alright, all Pelicans, aim at the enemy Pelican."

Three Pelicans fire 54 non-guided missiles at the enemy. "Put Chin guns on it also." I aim at the Pelican, hitting it's right thruster.

(Rain)

=I smile=

You were, As for that girl...
She is one of my cousin's friends I guess

=I shrug=

The guy with the white hair is my cousin.

=We enter the pool room=


(gonna eat soon)

(Dormii)
=i nod to the woman=
Hi.

=i look at Draco=
Yeah, it should be friendly. C'mon.

=i lead them both to the hanger and climb into a Pelican. I start prepping it for takeoff=

(She looks at Dormii)
(Surprise in her voice)

Sarah-Oh! I didnt see you there....I am so so sorry...

(Dante and Sarah get into the Pelican)

Dante-This is Sarah

=i take off all but my under garments (thankfuly not white but black) and my detatched sleeves. i step into the pool with my umbrella above me=

water's warm!

Reznov... What... Happened... To... Him...

(Alexi gestures to Reznov's body)

Alexi: Take a look. Looks like Matt gave him the quickest exit life could give him.

(Alexi shakes his head)

Alexi: Reznov picked the wrong man to tick off.

(Jeremy hears a grenade go off)

(He whirls and fires his HMG into the woods, using his motion tracker)

(Jordan fires his Jackhammer into the woods as well)

Code:

I'm picking up heat flares and sonics consistent with a traditional Pelican.
AA aircraft online and targeting Pelican.

(I hear missiles)

This is Black One bailing out!

(I run and jump out of the Pelican as it spins)

This is gonna hurt...

(I hit a tree , then the ground, disorienting me)

Code:

Initiating reprisal measures. Targeting Pelican.

(Grendel fires the Anvils before the Pelican hits the ground)

(Also takes strike missiles not used on base and hits the other two)

Code:

I warned you Innies. Its MY sky, even though the situation has changed.

(Rain)

Hmm...

=I shake my head and remove my things=
=I dive into the pool and pop up beside her=

Ahh.
I needed this.

=I smile=

Gotta love water


(Goin to eat now)

(Dormii)
It's quite alright. And I'm Dormii, by the way. If he hasn't told you anything about me, I'm a Viking and is one of the top targets for the UNSC, last I looked.

=i comm Dylon=
Three, coming over.

(Dylon)
=i reply=
Got it. I'll meet you there.

=i start heading towards the hanger bay=

(Dormii)
Here we go!

=i take off and start heading towards the carrier=

I grab my earpiece. "Everyone on this base should find transport, and get the hell out of here!" I jump onto the side of the tank. "Lets go." The tank starts to move out, some of our men see us leaving and jump on. "You want me to drive, they got a fucking nasty A.I."

"Ya do it Sergeant."

I run to the back of the Tank, while the Sgt. gets in the driver. I pull out the A.I Module, and hop back on. By the time we reach the exit, we have at least 15 on the tank, and 15 in there own warthogs and mongooses.

=i'm caught off guard by him poping up next to me=

woah!

.... yeah water's great.

hey, uhh why dou you do that thing? you seem lost in thought then you shake your head...

=i puff out my chest as i stretch and yawn=

*nyaaa....

(Rain)
=I clear the water from my eyes=

Hmm...

=I shrug=

Dont really know.
Just...something I do.


(Dante)

(He smiles)

One. of the top people wanted by the UNSC.

(Grendel intercepts the transmission)

Code:

No you don't, not that easily.

(Targets appropriated strike missile launchers on the smaller vehicles)

(Aaron)

Jeremy, Jack, Jordan, the rebels are leaving the facility, aquire visual and fire at will!

J,J, and J Roger that. Targeting

Grendel?

Code:

Targets locked and firing.

(Remaining strike missiles launch and target the Hogs and Mongeese)

Code:

Not on my watch you Innies. Your butts are mine.

(Once in visual range; Jack, Jeremy and Jordan target the other vehicles)

(I get out of my disorientation)

Owww...never doing that agian...

(I look and see missiles launch)

(I find a spot that has a good vantage point, and sight on the place where the Scorpion's cockpit will be)

This is for blowing my ass out of the sky...

you seem distracted...

=i spit a small flame from my umbrella=

(Dormii)
=i laugh=
Well, yes. We can't all be number one.

=we arrive in the hanger bay and I open the hatch to armed guards=
Umm, hi? We were expected.

(Dylon)
=i walk up and wave the soldiers down=
I apologize. The last person to come over almost wrecked all of transports.

=The flame snaps me from my world=

Whoa

=I smile=

Distracted by...

=I look at her=

Nothin.


(Dante)

(They walk up behind Dormii)

Sarah-A party?

Dante-We were invited.
