Chapter 4
January 14, 2562
12:03 P.M.
Erik had had his operation the day before and was up and walking. Youl had woken up on the 12th during the evening and was doing fine as well. Erik sat propped up reading a book. Dame and everybody else in his quarters were fast asleep. Erik decided to go for a stroll down to Youl's quarters where Ran was as well. Erik got up from his bed and put some boots on. He walked down the hall and went down to the 2nd level of Winter Rock. He found Youl's quarters and entered.
"You know you have a lot of attitude showing your face in here?" Youl sat up propped up against the side of his bed.
"Yeah sure, whatever. I just want to say I'm sorry for what happened during training. I really thought you were going to kill me," Erik said.
"I wasn't if that's what you were thinking, I just felt like confusing you," Youl said. " I wouldn't have actually killed you. Besides I need you in our squad, plus if I killed you then I'd probably been thrown into prison myself. I'm sorry for threatening you."
"My foot is good so you don't have to worry about it," Erik said.
Back at commanding part of Winter Rock General Walks was sitting down on a chair, slap dab in the middle of the room.
The Private saluted, "Sir we have received on radar, unidentified forces headed our way. I think you should come take a look at this." General Walks got up at from his chair and was escorted out of the room and headed to the navigation room. General Walks was 57 and had brown hair and blue eyes. General Walks arrived and was immediately summoned to the radar screen.
"We don't know who it is sir, they're about 10 miles away from us, we don't have much time. Can you give an order sir?" Asked Officer Hanes.
"Try coming into contact with them, and if that fails, expect the worse," General Walks ordered.
"Yes sir," Officer Hanes said, and gave the orders to his men.
12:46 P.M.
Erik was fast asleep in bed when he heard sirens go off. He jumped out of bed and woke Damen up.
"What the hell is going on?" Damen asked.
"The alarms are going off like crazy," Erik said.
"Wait holy-shit, get everybody up!!" Damen said. "It's a code red alarm." Erik and Damen got everybody up out of bed, and just then Corporal Manes ran into pass the hall yelling, "Covenant are here get to your MJOLNIR armor right away! Everyone in the rooms ran for the armory where their armor and weapons were. Erik was running where the rest of the crew was and two grunts popped out of nowhere in front of them, holding plasma pistols. Everybody stopped in their tracks and ran the other way. They shot the pistols and plasma came right at the crowd of teens piercing somebody's head in back of Erik. The other grunt shot his plasma pistol a couple of times, and killed some more of the scared teens. Corporal Manes had his MJOLNIR armor and emerged from the crowd. He had his MD6 pistol at hand. He ran toward the grunts in anger.
"You won't hurt these kids you grunt bastards!" Manes yelled. He shot at the grunt on the right twice in the head but the grunt wasn't dead yet. It seemed like the Covenant had better armor this time. He shot his duel pistols twice again at the grunt and it fell to the ground blood over the wall. The other grunt shot at Manes with his pistol but his energy shield blocked it. Manes shot at the other grunt and was killed. Manes ordered everybody to fallow him to the armory. Two men picked up the plasma pistols the grunts carried for protection. Manes ran down the hall and tried to avoid any battles whatsoever. They finally got to the armory and he rushed everybody in. Erik couldn't see Alex, Youl, Win, or Ran in the armory. It was only Damen and himself. Manes locked the door to the armory.
"What the hell are you doing Manes?" Erik asked. "Get back in here!"
"I'm going to go find everybody else and make sure they're alright. All of you get suited up and ready, these Covenant have evolved from the halo incident. They're smarter, they have sturdier armor and stronger weapons so everybody watch out." A Covenant Elite ran right towards Manes with his energy sword, and Manes fired continuously at the Elite but it was too late. The Elite stuck the sword right through Manes's chest. Blood splattered against the see door in which everybody could see. Erik and was shocked out of his mind but he had to get his armor on. He was getting it on and then his bones began to strain and was scared that the armor would break his bones. Some of his other comrades in the room were dead already because of the sheer force of the armor. Erik got on his helmet and equipped four grenades onto his belt. He then put two MD^ pistols on his sides. He then grabbed a MA5B Assault Rifle with extra magazines for all three of his guns. Erik had trained enough that he could carry it all without a problem. Damen couldn't set off explosives in close quarters, so he grabbed a MA5B Assault Rifle and 8 grenades. Everybody counted down and the Elite crowded the door. A marine opened the door and all them fired their guns and the Elite was mutilated. Erik and Damen decided to stick together and then try to find the rest of their squad. Ethan a marine followed them. Four Jackals were shooting at them from in front with energy rifles. Damen ordered Erik and Ethan to duck for cover. Erik found a pillar to hide behind with Ethan. Damen chucked 4 grenades at the Jackals. Damen dove behind the pillar and was blown back by the impact in a second. The blood of the Jackals was all over the place. Erik ran over to Damen and helped him get up. They ran towards the girls' quarters where Alex and Win might be. They got there and the walls were covered in human blood. Erik and company tried found no bodies that were from Win or Alex. They went into the shower room where they found more blood. Erik ran down the hall and found some female Marines their.
"Alex, Win is that you?" Erik asked though his head set.
"Yeah it's me Alex" said. Alex ran up to Erik and both of them hugged each other.
"I'm sorry to break this up guys but we need to get going," Win said. She had extra med packs and a MD6 pistol with her. Alex grabbed a sniper rifle and a MD6 pistol. She had the MD6 pistol drawn. Damen grabbed his MA5B Assault Rifle out from his back.
"Watch out!" Damen yelled. He shot at four grunts that where behind them armed with Needle Guns. Damen fired vigorously at them and hit one and it's arm was blown off and then his head. Ethan got out his duel pistols and shot another but the third Grunt fired his Needle Gun at him. 12 needles went penetrated his MJOLNIR armor and blood spewed from where he was shot. Erik got out his duel MD6 pistols and killed the remaining grunts. Win ran over to Ethan and crouched down. She took off his helmet where he was his hit five times and his whole face was bloody. Win almost threw up.
"He's dead," Win said. She got back up and the four of them advanced forward to find Youl and Ran.
