Chapter 2: Judgement

=Suddenly a man went down next to me, my heart stopped and I got down behind the rock=

Me: SNIIIIPPEEERRSS!!

=I yelled as loud as I could through the comms and everyone follow me by putting their helmet in the dirt

=Again confused I opened up in the direction of the enemy fire on us, everyone soon follow me once more.=

=I tended to the downed guy next to me, he was in real bad shape, I pulled him closer to the rocks and bandaged him up as best I could=

=sets Jay down in the Falcon= Don't worry, Jay, I'll make sure you're ok.

=to Zeru= Let's go! Let's go!

=Ash gets on board after Dormii and fires out the Falcon=

=flies the falcon out of the area usign the chin gun and turrests for supression fire=

"Taking fire from the UNSC scum." Said the Sniper

"Where is that LMG?" One of the Rebels loaded a clip into it. He nodded. "Suppressive fire on those rocks."

The LMG started up.

"S*** sir, they got away."
"Everyone fire on the UNSC scum."

=Realizing the Falcon was taking off, I took someones Rocket Launcher and led the Falcon and fired=

=hooks himself in and starting to pass out=

All I want is a little of the good life. All I need is to have good time.....

=passes out=

=deploys several chaff pods=

=Not looking where the missile hit, I fired the next one at the ridge where the LMG was supressing us=

"ROCK-" He didn't finish his sentence, the LMG went down. "Fall back to the ship." Said the leader. A teammate grabbed the Rocket off there back, and fired two rounds before running back.


(In the ship.)

"It'll take awhile to get back, for now rest."

I went to sleep.

Squad Leader: Move to where the Rouges were, there is one laying there!

=Moving toward the downed ODST, I pulled out my medical bag and tried to patch him up=
=I don't know what gave me the urge to do that even when under fire, but he was drifting into unconciousness=

=The Platoon Leader sent two squads to go see where the rebels are heading=

=Meanwhile I was patching up any casualties, we only had 3 KIA's and 5 WIA, thank you for letting me act quick=

=they arrive in the trophaeum= syaa get us out of here and have the E.R ready for triple surgery

(It turns to night)

Damn it. Bioluminecient crap playing hell with the VISR

(I turn it off)

Its an improvement, but not by much.

(Unlimber my shotgun and flick on the flashlight)

*Alright big guy. Come out and get me.*

I don't know what you are, but you're gonna come with me

=Not knowing what the hell to do, he just keeps watch on the wounded while four other soldiers start digging for the other soldiers who weren't so lucky=

=With everything calmed down, I decided I needed a little meal. Just like back in the old days, we got special suprise food call "Rations", I popped one open... some cheese and sushi..=

Me: great, my favorite..

(Sees the eyes) Alright, I got your attention don't I?

(Looks at Torres's hand) Oh nuts (prepares for a knife strike) Torres, if thats who you are, then take your best shot.

(Wakes up after surgery)
I am done gettin stabbed and shot in the stomach.
(looks over to see Dormii, next to him is Jay)
(He sits up, and winces)
Jesus. Wait where is Ash?
(Gets up)
Once again not my best ideas.
(he goes over to the table where his weapons are)
Hmm. My S2. My Hydra. Oh whas this?
(He picks up the M99 and smiles)
Guess I did get something besides a stab wound

=waking up=.....Jay....... =bolts up= JAY! =lies down= Ah....what the hell happened?

=sees Draco= Oh, good. Going to finish what you started?

(looks over at Dormii)
@Dormii
Nah I figure you got your butt handed to you by the three of us. Anything else would be overkill.
I made a promise. That I would not allow anything to hurt her. I will always keep that promise.
If it was not for Zeru jumping on Zayne, I don't know what he would have done to you.
(Looks down at left leg)
Idiot decided to punch my leg.
(goes over to Dormii)
@Dormii
Listen, whats done is done. we can't change that. What we can shape is the future.

=After finishing my rations, the Platoon Leader told us to move to the DZ but I believe the Rebels are still in the area=

=We got to the hill where they were firing on us, there we a ton of shells and weapons left behind, I helped myself to some grenades and and medical things I could find=

=sits up= She took my new life from me, before it really started. Do you really think I would've just let that go?

@Dormii
I never expected you to.
It's difficult trying to get a new life started after another one crumbled.
I know, I have been in that position many times.
All I can ask of you is to just try and forgive her.
I can tell it has been eating at her. She hates herself for it. In a way she should.
But like I said the past is the past. Shape the future
(He gets up and heads towards the door, before he leaves he turns back around and says)
Im sorry

=to Draco, voice softened= I'm sorry too. And I'll try, tell her that. I can't forgive her, but I can understand.


Deis berunt tuus vivam, Draco.
The gods bless your life.

=records second biography entry=

=goes to sleep on medbay bed=

Thank you
(He leaves. The door shutting behind him)
Jesus. Crash Landed twice, get injured in the chest and stomach regions twice. Im on a role.

=Pelicans came to pick us up and when we got to "The Victory"=

Platoon Leader: Ok men, we were close to our objective. We unfortunatly had more on our plate than we could handle, unexpected Rebel reinforcements arrived and got 3 of our guys. We still need to search for those Rogues and we are working on tracking them down. For the mean time we can stay he..

=Something interrupted him, he turned on his comm and responded to the message=

Platoon Leader: We got a distress call, Comm experts, get working on the location! No matter who or what that was to, we have to get to it before it disappears.

*A distress call has been sent out by Marcus. The ODST*
Hmm be the first time we meet
*You are not going*
Come on I can still fight
*At your present condition you will faint again like last time*
Oh come on Andrea

(He finds it and slides down on the wall)

(Dozes off)

"This is Captain Armistead of the UNSC Ebonheart, we picked up your beacon. Can you read me?"

=the glow in his hands flashes brightly and then start to form a katana like energy sword with similar properties to an elite energy sword= Any last words?

=The Azure Comet comes out of slipspace over Inflammen, and all the troops are preparing for the drop=

=Ash looks up and hears Jay coughing=
You ok over there?

Couple of bullets wounds in my chest. I've had worse i guess.

A grin flashes across my face.

Im more worried about everyone else.

I'm fine. Honestly.

I slide off the bed and stagger about before falling back to the ground.

Okay, that's probably a bad sign.

=Ash jumps up to help Jay back on her feet=
Your not going to get any better if you push yourself, please sit down.
