Rogue Enemies (Prologue - Chapter 2) The scientist had just completed the enhancements needed to win against the Covenant forces once and for all. Instead of informing his superiors he walked over to a door guickly but silently with the enhancements. A small hidden camera emerged from the wall and made a retina scan. The camera beeped and became a part of the wall once again. A passageway emerged out of nowhere and the scientist walked down. He lit a halogen light and went inside a Longsword interceptor. Lights and buttons beeped and lit the inside. He started toward a what looked like a concrete wall. The wall flew open and closed behind the ship. He flew over cities and found a base that looked abandoned and rusted in the mountains. He landed the Longsword inside and got out. "A covenant base." he said to himself. His voice echoed along the walls. He went down the stair and walked down a hallway into another. The sound of foot steps bounced along the walls. He found a laboratory and stationed himself there. Chapter 1: The Meeting He then took off the bottom of the case and took out a small box and disk. The small box would be implanted into the brain and the disk with it. Small wires from the box would connect to nerves. The disk held information on every human stradegy. A special feature on the disk contained every covenant stradegy and battle tactic had also been placed from another disk taken out of a covenant ship. He knew this would make the equal for a Spartan. He kept on inside the case and found what he was looking for. The silver piece shimmered in the laboratory light. This piece would make pain unnoticable. He also took out about 200 steel platings. These would cover the bones and make them impossible to break. The senses would also be better. Smell, hearing, touch would be enhanced and sight would be enhanced with nightvision. He left them there and went to the mess hall. His clatter woke up the sleeping and unnoticed Elite. The Elite woke up and grunted. He listened. He found the sound of footsteps and slowly walked up the stairs and stood at the edge of the opening in the mess hall. He grabbed his PR from his side and jumped out pointing at the scientist. The scientist dropped his plate and held his hands up. "Ereh ouy era ywh?"barked the Elite "Excuse me?" answered the scientist. "Why are you here?" he said annoyed. "I was making enhancements for the 'humans' and I took them here in a ship of mine," he replied," I have them here and was planning to put them on me but it is impossible." "Of course you would be perfect and it make you way more powerful and smarter than a Spartan." he said trying to save himself. The Elite's eyes widened at the words "more powerful and smarter than a Spartan." Chuma walked slowly to the scientist. He grabbed him and told him that he will spare his life if he puts it on him. The scientist agreed and he took him towards the lab and told him about everything. He agreed once again and got on a table for operation. The tools were taken out and placed on the table with everything else. Anesthesia was placed on the floor. Chuma first asked what is your name and the scientist simply replied, Linux. He went to sleep after that. Chapter 2: Immortal Chuma awoke hours later sore all over but enpowered in a way. He jumped off the table and almost touched the roof that was 6 feet above his head. He looked over at Linux sleeping on the floor. Chuma grabbed his PR and pointed at the innocent scientist. His hand shook. He put his plasma rifle on his side again and kept to his word. He went outside. It was pitch black but he could see everything. He ran to the farthest tree. He made it to the mile away tree in six seconds flat. And he stopped right in front of it. He pointed his rifle at a tree and instead fired at all the trees simultaneously in one quick movement. He went back inside the base. he shook Linux and kept on saying,"you did it, you did it." Of course Linux woke up after having his head banged on the floor about ten times. "What? What's the matter?" he asked half-asleep. Chuma kept yelling,"It worked, it worked." "What worked?" Linux answered now awake. "The enhancements work, let me show you!" Chuma lifted his fist. Linux answered quickly rubbing the back of his head,"I already tried it out." They now talked and went to sleep in the same rooms without the fear of the other trying to kill him. A new friendship had risen in both of these living creatures and they would go out into war in due time. Rogue Enemies (Chapter 3 : Welcome) |
Weeks had passed while UNSC officials started wondering about Project: THOR and how much progess had they made. Linux had an inside man who kept them away from the room assigned for the project. Linux had called in earlier and told him where he was. Samson, the inside man, was a loyal friend to Linux and did'nt approve of his plan at first but agreed after a time.
Footsteps sounded in the hall while Samson lay in his easy chair looking over a diagram of an outer colony. He looked at the map of Moger. He was facinated in Geology and maps but had never become a navigation officer. The diagram came from a satellite stationed over the colony. No movement came from the diagram which would've had numerous dots walking around. Samson finally heard the floor clanging on the boots of UNSC personnel. The diagram was replaced with information on Project: THOR. The doors opened and instead came in a group of marines. Samson had asked a few friends to join them.
Lidia, Frank, Daniel, Alex, and Kim had been in the UNSC for at least two years and each had combat experience. Samson took out a disk from an AI port and another from an information console and put on his cloak. They followed him into the room assigned to THOR and to a wall. The hidden camera came out and identified him. the hidden hallway emerged and they all walked in. He took a halogen light and turned it on. A Pelican was in the room. They loaded into the ship after putting a few weapons and supplies in a small compartment. Back doors closed and the giant machine took off. He headed towards the base hidden in mountains. The long fly gave them a time to rest and even Samson was able to sleep because of the auto-pilot controls. The pelican went down into the docking bay where he thought only Linux would be.
While all that happened something was going on in the base where Chuma had ran from. A friend of his was to gather a group of Renegades.
Flako waited in the hanger for a few friends of his. Three Grunts first came through the doorway just before two Jackels. Flako greeted them and they all waited for the Three Elites coming. Flako gave some information to the Jackels but was interrupted by the doors opening. Three Elites, one red and the others blue, emerged from the doors and ran over to them. Flako and the red Elite shook hands. Makota was his older brother and had only agreed because of Chuma. They loaded into the dropship and flew towards the base. The dropship lifted off from the purple docking bay and into the sky. Chuma was the youngest of the three brothers and each had been trained by thier legendary father who had been a gold elite. Thier father was very very skilled with a plasma sword and the highest ranking officer in his base. He had to retire because of a wound to the leg but he went back and fought for a few years but then old age hit. Makota always kept his fathers sword at his side even though he was red he was very skilled with a sword also.
The dropships AI gave the notice to Flako that the coordinates given to it was close. He saw the mountains and pressed a holopanel at his side which he then took control of the ship. He flew in to the base. They jumped out and found the Humans talking to Linux. He jumped out and walked over to Chuma with Makota at his side. Makota almost grabbed his sword when he passed Daniel. "Chuma what is the meaning of this?" Makota answered in thier language of barks and grunts. "I have made friends with the human in the white coat and I am even stronger than you now Flako." Chuma replied in the same language. "Sorry, but I must tell you that I am stronger brother," Flako came in," It has always been that way of course." Chuma smiled at his brother but didn't want to show off so he let him think that.
"Why these humans Chuma?" Makota brang back the topic," You told us only one." "Linux, the man in the white coat, never informed me about this either but I am fine with it," Chuma explained looking at Linux," I feel I have grown a liking to humans, and theres something about this one that I like."
Rogue Enemies (Chapter 3 4: The URM)
Date: 29 August 2002, 10:09 pm
"Why do we always do your bidding brother?" Interrogated his older brother Flako. "I'm younger so it is only my rightful place to direct you." Replied Chuma.
Makota listened as the two argued over... something. "Lets go out and meet them." Makota finally agreed. His stubbornness was his only great weakness. The three walked over to the humans, Jackals,and Grunts. Chuma strode to Linux side. "Now is the time." Chuma whispered to his colleague.
"All right, as you all know we are here for a reason." Linux started his speech; "I had come here to getaway from the Humans, which I knew for a reason, as did Chuma here," he motioned towards the redElite, "Both of us had friends coming and neither had spoken to the other on the matter you see."He paused then, as if to take a breath
"Now you may have to take in your surroundings as you know and the people next to you will be your only safety for we have devised a plan to take the Colony." Again he paused, letting each word sink in. "It may sound strange for just us 15 rebels taking over a whole colony but we can succeed." the scientist continued with his long speech.
"Since the colony is new there will not be as much war-fare activity. There is only one base of each side, Covenant and Human. We will take care of one and then the other. We will only try to clear the land and then gather forces after we unite with other alliances and organizations."
"It will be a grueling journey but by each of you choosing to come you have each chosen to take on the challenges that await you. We shall be called the United Renegades of Mogal." Linux ended.
Chuma came to the forefront of the group as Linux went in. "I have already devised a plan to take out the Covenant base that we have come from while Linux is still devising his plan to take over the Human base. One thing we both know that we will do is take out communications first so they do not call for reinforcements or air support from ships in space." Chuma announced to all.
Linux came back up to the front of the renegades. "You are all dismissed, I will be on the second floor where the bunks are stationed, if you have any ideas or helpful facts then come and tell me or my friend Chuma tomorrow morning at breakfast." With that Linux stepped down and walked towards the ladder for the second floor.
He thought about how they would survive. Maybe they would come to a peace order with the UNSC organization and wouldn't be considered a threat anymore. He continued his thoughts and came to a point where he actually thought he would be the one to connect the UNSC and the covenant. It was all too soon to know. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Rogue Enemies Chapter 5 First Encounter
Date: 8 September 2002, 8:38 pm
The next morning they skipped breakfast. Linux and Chuma informed the rest of the group that they had intercepted communications about a group leaving the building for recon and attack. Everyone nodded and were sent out to pickup a few weapons to use. Each of them grabbed swords but some instead took a fuel rod cannon. After loading and armor the humans jumped into the Seraph fighter while the Grunts, Jackals, and one of the Elites were in another. Chuma and Flako took some Banshees for recon and would knock down communications before any of the rest got there.
The two banshees flew at full speed towards a building in the distance. A communications tower was also ahead. Chuma broke away for the tower while Flako continued for the vehicles. 10 minutes later after Chuma had been waiting The tower was in sight but so was a few generators for a shield. He fired at the tower but a blue shimmer was the only thing that appeared besides the ricocheting of the plasma charges. He headed down towards the generators and was met by gunfire. He spun to the left and only let a bullet scrape the armor of the ship. He returned fire at the petty guards that had been placed because they couldn't do anything else. He smiled and fired a fuel rod charge and hit one of the three generators and the explosion hit the rest of the last guards sending them 10 feet high. Chuma quickly spun around the tower and was met once again by fewer guards that only equalled a sad three soldiers left to die. They were quickly eliminated but Chuma had gotten hit a few times and his HUD showed the armor with a block down. He finished his attack with a charge of his fuel rod cannons at the generators. He stopped and floated for a few seconds resting from his adrenaline rush. He did not like these adrenaline rush so he always tried to take things easy. He got back up to speed and destroyed the tower. After, the ship met up with Flako and they went back to the Seraphs.
The base was small and didn't hold much but the weapons and vehicles could be useful. They moved in and were met with no forces of trouble. The base was taken over quickly. Dead bodies littered the area and just hung. They were cleaned up by the Jackals and Grunts. They had little time so while the covenant cleaned up the humans took positions on turrets and vehicles. Two of them took longswords and the rest were in the turrets while Samson, Linux, Chuma, and his brothers talked.
"I believe that we should keep the mountains for a retreat. It is only fact that it was hidden in the mountains for retreat or to not be seen by reconnasionce." Linux stood up looking at the members of the Leaders of the URM. Flako spoke up staying in his seat,"I would have to agree and this base is newer and has many more defences than the rusted building in the mountains even though it does have many capabilities also." Chuma nodded speaking,"I also have to say that this is a good plan and the shields can be fixed easilly." The third brother just leaned on his chair and nodded. Samson instead spoke up,"Ok, it has been decided, we shall stay here and use the mountain base as our retreat." They all sat down again and one by one they left. They each went to the cafeteria and ate and went to bed. It was a wonder why they went to sleep this early but it wasn't a big question in everyones mind.
Chuma and his brothers were stationed in a dark room talking low voices as to not be heard,"I cannot continue with the mission my brothers." Chuma stated shaking his head as he looked down at the floor with shame. "You fool, we cannot turn back already after all we've done on this task given to us." Makota yelled at him slamming his fist on a table in the room. Flako quieted him down and continued conversation,"I know that you have been assigned to be implanted with the enhancements of the humans," He inhaled to continue," We may have to continue or we shall have to ally ourselves with your friend for your sake brother." The brothers nodded to eachother and left out of the room quietly and swiftly.
Rogue Enemies Chapter 6 Death and Regret
Date: 8 September 2002, 8:38 pm
Alarms sounded through the captured base. Crimson lights blaring through the compound. Chuma woke up to these sounds and lights. He jumped down onto the floor. The red Elite looked around and then grabbed his plasma rifle and saw a marine run by but dropped dead infront of the open doorway from Chumas quick reflexes that had advanced. He was outside in the hallway in a second and saw the rest of the group that had not gone to the turrets come. One of the renegades came and reported,"Turrets are holding down a few of the forces that had come back from the Covenant base. Casualties are one of the Grunts that was in a turret. Enemy drowned down to 95 marines and counting but the turrets are overheating from too much continuous fire. When I left turrets were at 85% Sir." He took a breath after the long report yet it had only taken a minute to say it all.
A Jackal came this time around the corner from bullets slamming into the wall behind him. He yelled and looked back throwing a grenade. "The turrets overheated but theres still about 75 humans behind me." He screamed behind the sounds of the blue explosion occuring on the other side of the hall while the screams of men were heard. Chuma headed down the opposite hallway the marine and Jackal had come from. The group followed him while everyone loaded and readied their guns. Two grunts with them threw grenades in the perfect order making one blast the other blue orb fly forward. A man could be heard yelling,"It's on me! It's on me!" Chuma grinned and threw two more behind him blasting a few more marines chasing them. A grunt yelled from a barrage of bullets pelting into his small body. This day wouldn't be a good one. They moved into the cafeteria where two marines were turned into slush by plasma guns. Chuma flipped over the tables quickly and jumped behind one just as the group were behind it and the enemy passed by. They threw grenades onto marines passing but they were not noticing their hiding place. They finally came into the room and were about to get the same fate as the two marines thet were in here before. Grenades were thrown from side to side from the continuous forces. Linux had a pistol in his hand. He had never really had combat training and was happy when they sent him to the lab a few years back when he was still in the UNSC.
Chuma and him were left with fifteen enemy soldiers and dead bodies around them. Chumas brothers weren't among them but noone noticed from the continuous battle. Chuma and Linux occasionally hit a marine or two but they also took a shot or two. The marines came up to their tables and looked upon them but didn't shoot. A blue line swept through them and the bodies slid down from their bodies. The faces were imprinted marks on their faces. Makota came up to them and lifted them up not saying a word. They ran through more hallways towards where Flako was waiting in the hanger for them finishing off a marine staggering from his group.
"Reinforcements are coming to help the dead forces!" He yelled just as a Pelican dropship came into to the base. The pelican reacted by shoting at Flako andtearing him apart with the auto-cannons. Chuma and Makota yelled and fired into the cockpit hitting the pilot but not before the reinforcements of 12 marines jumped out. Tears streamed from the eyes of both Elite covenant. They fired unending, being hit by bullets. Their sheilds helped until they were decimated. Makota came up to a marine with his sword and slashed off the head while another marines came behind him with a knife and slashed into his back. Makota gasped and was stunned. He just stayed in the air dropping slowly in the eyes of his brother who had just finished sticking the butt of his gun into another marine. The one with the knife ran towards the red man. But Chuma had been advanced too much to be killed with such an inferior weapon. He grabbed the mans arm and bended it downward snapping the bone of the marine. He ripped the arm off and stuck the front of his gun into the man face and fired off two shots. The face was turned black instantly.
Linux was in the back watching, unmoving, just holding his pistol stunned. Chuma ruthlessly took the assault rifle from the man and turned to the last marine. He fired full force at him while running up and body slamming the smaller man. The adrenaline in Chuma had risin so much.
Chuma suddenly knelt on both knees, battle scarred, bleeding, and just started watering the blood stained floor. His tears were making a puddle and the screams that came from his mouth were loud enough to make you want to kill him but Linux just stood there. He took a step and began walking to Chuma. He didn't say anything but just stood there looking at the sun coming up from its sleep. It's warmth slowly set upon them as did the small breeze and dew of the morning.
Hours Later
The ships engines cut off as the Seraph started floating through space. In an hour the organization was destroyed. The URM was destroyed. Chuma was sleeping in the cabin while Linux thought about the happenings of last night. They didn't know what would happen but they would let God lead them on their lives. The engines restarted and they left into hyperspace.
