Hello Guys, this is my very first Halo FanFic. I have read all the three official Books, Fall of Reach, The Flood and First strike. And i also own Halo and Halo 2 games. I am not a Legendary player, just a "Normal" setting guy! Since this is my frist attempt, please don't be harsh. Any review is accepted and appreciated (I don't know about the negative reviews though, hehe) Any way bear with me.

He, Major Larry, lost his control on the Warthog. He tried to bring the Hog away from the Huge Scarab's leg. He narrowly missed it; next time he has to be careful, if there is a next time. He turned his wheel right and left in order to gain the control. However, he had very little success. The huge Scarab, a Covenant moving tank, is almost in destructible. Even the rockets, .50 Cal cannot make a slight dent on its body. It had four huge legs, for walking. It crushes its path, rather than walks through it. It has a very powerful main Gun on its nose. The gun is safely protected under four plates. When it was time to unleash hell, the protective plates opens and a huge Green light shoots out. Anything that stands in that path becomes an instant Turkey roast. Even though the Spartan-104 shouted to pull back, Larry had no or little control on his own Hog. When he sped past the Scarab, the last thing he saw was huge Green light.
Chapter one: Orders to follow
Fred and Linda were roaming the corridors of cairo station, with a battle rifle in their hands. They were asked to stay in the station when Master Chief and SGT. Johnson went to the station's bridge and met Admiral Hood. The other remaining Spartan (Will), one of the survivors of the Unyeilding Eierphant was wounded during their journey back. So He was send to Sydney, Australia for medical attention. So only Chief, Fred and Linda were the remaining Spartans back on their foot and ready for action.
"Sir, Admiral Hood has asked u…both of u to report to the Deck A, sir. Captain is waiting" stammered the Marine. This is a common reaction the Spartans get. So Fred and Linda moved towards the Deck A, suddenly their COMM channel opened and it was Cortana,
"Another whisper, Sir, near Io. We have probes en route" her voice was cool but there was a tension behind it.
Then the COMM went off, after few seconds the COMM opened, and it was Cortana again, Fred Frowned, 'Was he suppose to get this report or is this some kind of interference?'
"Slipspace ruptures, directly off our battle cluster (Then there was a static) Fifteen Covenant capital ships, holding position just outside the Killzone" (Again there was nothing but static)
Then another Voice broke in, it was a tired but determined voice,
"This is Fleet Admiral Harper. We are engaging the enemy,"
Fred and Linda could see a group of UNSC ships travel towards the fifteen Covenant battle cruisers. Linda shook her head a little. She and Fred knew it was a dangerous and a necessary risk, that Admiral Harper has to take. After few minutes of static, both the Spartans saw the UNSC ships pull back and settle just in front of the kill zone. Both the Spartans didn't realize that they have stopped moving in their track and watched the blue marble being invaded by their deadly enemy, Covenant. After few seconds Cortana voice broke in, "Gladly" and went off.
"We better be moving Spartan, there is no time for sight seeing," said Fred. So both the Spartans moved to the lower Deck A.
"Sir, reporting as ordered," both the Spartans gave a crisp salute to the Captain Thomas Mcknee. He was a short and a strong man. He spun around and saw the Spartans. He didn't give out any sign of surprise or awe at his first sight of a Spartan, even though they are told to be the Invincible ones.
"At ease, I just now got my orders, Commander Keyes is boarding the In Amber Clad and preparing to leave the station in 5 minutes. I need u both in that ship on the double, move out soldiers," and he moved towards the computer panel and pressed some switches and opened a link, a voice broke in thorugh Captain Thomas' panel, it was panicking,
"Sir, additional contacts! Boarding crafts, and lots of 'em" cried out a marine
"They are going to try to take our MAC guns offline, give their capital ship a straight shot at earth. Master Chief, defend this station," said Admiral hood
"Yes sir!" replied a strong voice back.
Even though Fred and Linda were hundred yards from that computer panel, they heard his voice clearly. And they knew whom it belongs to, their one and only surviving team leader, Spartan 117, John.
