Pillar of autumn
0590 hours
Amory 3
Level nine
Deck 14D

Walls with bullet holes, blood spewing out of corpses, rifles heated. A spartan stood in an armory, Blood was dripping off the spartan's green, and red armor, he sat there holding a smoking rifle, his body had multiple wounds, and most of his armour was broken off, his visor was chipped, and his face was exposed. There were mutated bodies surrounding him, their carcass's stench filled the air in an instant, the body twitches and he shot it through it's chest, he heard more comming and they had their blood curdling sounds. He stands near a door, and prepares for them "Those... Bastards won't quit...." He gets behind the door, Rocky checks the ammunition guage on his rifle, and it was down to twenty rounds. He knew John's intentions and he knew he had no chance of living this... He checks his belt for any more clips, and none were left, he knew he used all shots in the armory a few hours ago, and had nothing useful currently... He switches it to single fire and sighs.


He remembers a spartan back on Reach, one he fell in love with, "This is it.... it is my last stand.... But I never saw if you survived Ella..... I hope you are okay...." he pulls back the hammer on his rifle and saw the flood pouring out of darkness, "Come you bastards.... Lets see what you got...." he charges and fires a shot through one's chest and bashed a warrior away, he sidesteps and kicked a grenade into the back of a combat form which sent him into a doorway, and destroyed the door, he heard skithering sounds behind him, he turns around and blew away an infection form. He grabs a grenade and threw it into a vent where thousands of infection forms came out of and ran. The flood were chasing him as he ran, he begins to become faint, he was suffering massive blood loss, he hits a wall, and continues running. He heads to the bridge, and closes the door behind him, the flood on the other side were bashing at it, he pants and saw a wound by his side, he held it and groans in deep pain, he gets up and picks up a dead elite's plasma rifle, then rthrew the empty MA5B on the ground, and watched the door. He saw sentinels, he fires at them and blew them down, he ran out the exit and down the hall, he hid by a support beam, and saw a marine dead on the ground, he looks past a door and saw a handful of combat forms, he charges and shot them down, he shot one in half and punched his fist through one's chest, and pulled out the infection form. He crushed it and moved on, his blood was pouring out of his wounds, and his HUD was getting static, it was damaged a while back, and is being glitchy.



He then checks around a corner and ran down the hall, he saw the sign on the ground, it said engineering, he knew he had to stay and fight of the flood, he activates the lock on the bulkhead and it closed, he saw John running from the armory and into engineering. "Good luck old friend.... and Goodbye...." next he saw a plasma pack, he walks over to it and set the plasma rifle on the ground, he picks it up, but he heard a sound behind him and tried to turn around, but he then felt a sudden surge of searing pain in his neck, and he felt the wall hit his head and he hit the ground, He hoped it wasn't what he thought it was, he tried getting up, but couldn't feel his body, and he couldn't breathe, he looks to his left and saw to his horror, his body standing were it was, blood shooting out of the neck, he saw his body collapse and he instantly figured out he was dead, he had been decapitated. A flood standing behind it had his blood on it's hand, and he closes his eyes, he hopes John destroys Halo. Because he doesn't want these things to get off, and infect Ella. His vison began to blur, and he began to slowly die, his head hurting. A tear rolls down his cheek, and he slowly blacks out. "good luck John.... and good bye Ella....." he then ascends into the light he saw ahead of him.
