The twenty UNSC Marines stood there. They were waiting for Master Chief, to commence with the operation.
"Sir! Team Alpha has infiltrated the Covenant Fortress! We should proceed with our portion of the mission ASAP!"
Master Chief heard something on his commlink. He quickly opened the frequency.
"Team Omega, this is team Alpha! We are under heavy fire! Those bastards have killed three of us and severely injured eight of us! Requesting immediate backup!" There was a crackle over the commlink.
"They're using a new type of soldier! About four and a half feet tall with ling weapons that pulse at the end. They seem to be plasma rockets!" Gunfire drowned out the rest of the frequency.
The soldiers marched into the marsh. Using all their cunning they attempted to avoid the spotlights.
"Lieutenant Crines!" was all Master Chief could manage to say. They shined the spotlight on him. About forty plasma shots tore through his armor. He collapsed.
Thinking quickly, Master Chief unbuckled Crines' armor and strapped it as well he could over his MJOLNIR armor.
"If I'm lucky, they'll think I'm a dead Marine,"
"Clever Thinking, Master Chief," was Sergeant Chipps Dubbo's reply.
They proceeded towards the fortress, going as quietly as possible. Commander Leon was trying to swim his way there, and as deep as possible. He resurfaced quite quickly for air, and the patrols caught him. There was one shot from a fuel rod gun, but Leon dodged it. Then came the plasma charges. He was doomed.
"They really don't want us here, do they," said Chipps. He knew that this was going to be a difficult mission. "Incoming transmission! I'm forwarding it to you right now, Master Chief!"
"This is Alpha Team. We have been captured, and require immediate evac! They killed seven of us. Seven of us are fine; the other six of us are hurt. Come here ASAP! And, it looks like another Spartan!" The frequency then turned off.
"Alright, Marines! It's time to go do this thing!" They marched as fast as possible, making as little noise as possible. They approached the fortress. "Alright, we will need to swim to get inside. Follow me, Marines!"
They resurfaced inside a small chamber. "As the saying goes, into the belly of the beast!" Master Chief checked in with his positioning satellite above the planet. He looked for the beast route. "Follow me and stay close Marines!" "Team Sierra! Do you read!"
"This is Team Sierra! Read you loud and clear! Orders are as follows: retrieve and secure the Covenant Database Disc, find and escort all prisoners, set of the HAVOK Tactical Nuke, and get the hell out of there!"
"Got that. Remember your orders: secure the forward perimeter, prep the UNSC MMEV helicopter, and make sure you have total contact with the UNSC MSPS Satellite. Good luck. This is Team Omega, signing out."
"Master Chief, what do MMEV and MSPS stand for, anyway?"
"Darn it, Chipps, what have they taught you in the UNSC Marine Academy! Marine Mission Evac Vehicle, and Marine Surveillance Position Satellite! What is with you today!"
Master Chief managed to unlock the door. The marines slowly went down the hallway, towards what Master Chief said was the prison cells. They arrived at the prison cell chamber door. Master Chief pulled out a fiber optic cable and slid it under the door. He saw our Elites on patrol duty, two more beating the crap out of a Grunt for some reason. Most likely for tricking the Elites. There were eight Grunts walking around, three Jackals, one hunter, and two of those new creatures.
They were four and a half feet tall, wearing heavy armor, and their weapons were long. The barrel was pulsating, and there seemed to be a magazine at the top for feeding in the ammo.
Master Chief inspected Lieutenant Crines' armor. He pulled out Crines' MA5B Assault Rifle, and the ammo. He took of the armor, for mobility purposes. He signaled for a few of the Marine to pull out their SPNKr Rocket Launchers. The rest had either Assault Rifles or Shotguns.
The blasted open, and five rockets flew toward those bastards. They were blown to bits at that moment. Then the rest jumped in and shot the rest. Master Chief signaled to stop.
Master Chief went to a Covenant Battle Net machine, and saw one of those new creatures, lying there injured. He took the strange weapon he had, as well as some of his spare ammo. He knelt down and inspected it. It was very strange, hiding behind its ruined helmet. Master Chief stood up, and fired several shots at it.
Master Chief opened the cells. He helped the six of them that were hurt. We went over to the squad leader. His cell was full of blood. Commander Mendez lay there, very injured. He looked at Master Chief. "Thanks, Chief. You saved us all."
Master Chief went over to the last cell. As Mendez said, there was another MJOLNIR Battle Suit. He opened the cell and walked in. On the suit, the name Pedroza was inscribed. He opened the helmet. There was a person inside that looked dead. Blood dripped from his mouth.
"Chief Pedroza, The True Warrior, reporting for duty."

ÝÝÝÝÝÝMaster Chief helped Chief Pedroza to his feet. He didn't know what to say. During the time after Reach, the Halo Incident, he always thought he was the last SPARTAN remaining. ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"I know, I know. You thought that you were the last SPARTAN. Long story short, you aren't," said Pedroza. ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"How did you...? Never mind! We are here on a mission. Are you in a good condition to fight?" Master Chief replied. ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"Well, I have been trapped here for a while... But, what harm will that do. All you need to do is tell me the mission," was Pedroza's answer. "All right. He needed to free the prisoners, which we already did. Now we have to retrieve a secret disc that we heard of on the Covenant Battle Net. According to them, this fortress contains a disc with all the vital information to the Covenant." He paused for a moment. "This disc will help us win the Human-Covenant War. We then need to set of a HAVOC Tactical Nuke, and finally evacuate to the MMEV to get to the MSPS, Spy of Truth." ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"Got that. This disc, it will help us win the war? Then we must take the risk of receiving it." ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"Before we move out, I must quickly radio in to Spy of Truth." He opened the frequency. "This is Team Omega to Spy of Truth. Cortana, do you read me?" ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"You know that I always read you loud and clear." ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"We are moving on to phase three, receiving the disc. And, we found another SPARTAN, Chief Pedroza." ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"Analyzing... Chief Pedroza was at Reach when the Covenant obliterated it. He escaped in a Pelican Dropship, but was soon intercepted by Covenant Air Patrols. He tried to shake them, but was captured. Well, good luck on phase three. This is Cortana, signing out." ÝÝÝÝÝÝ"All right, Marines! It's time you saddle up and move out! Get you gear ready, all of you!" ÝÝÝÝÝÝAt that moment, the door burst open. The strange new creatures were back. The Marines fired at them tearing through their ranks. Master Chief moved closer, and aimed his shotgun right at the last one's face. It picked up it weapon, but a little too late. Master Chief looked at their weapons. There were two different types. One seemed to be a Rocket Launcher, the other a Sniper's Rifle. He took them for further study. "Time to continue!" said Pedroza. He seemed strongly anxious to receive the Covenant disc. They proceeded to the checkpoint. Master Chief signaled them to get their Rocket Launchers ready. Master Chief and Chief Pedroza used the Covenant ones. Master Chief signaled three... two... one... They ripped open the doors and fired in all directions. Grunts and Jackals ran while Elites, Hunters, and Defenders (The new creatures) stood and fought. Soon, everything was quiet. Pedroza walked up to the center of the room. He saw something, a large metal object. He blew it open, to find an unwelcome surprise that everyone was sure to hate... To Be Continued...
