William Dietz is the guy who wrote the Flood.

Nice story. Maybe next time you should about grunts. You don't know what smart grunts are capable of like Yuyap. With all the books Nylund has written people have forgotten about William Dietz. Although not as great or creative as Nylund (he could use the game as a reference) he's still great. Your story about the jackals are great. I must of misunderstood the thing about the elites protecting the JAckals cause that's what I thought.

I too don't like stories about marines inserted behind enemy lines by a pelican. For some great non human odst stories read Iron Hand of the Prophets by MadJackal.

Also, who's to say that all Jackals have one syllable names anyway? Halo: The Flood only mentioned the names of (I think) three Jackals. Three is not very representative of a whole. And, I can appreciate names like Adam and Jamie because I remember once reading a fanfic a long time ago in which the Elites called each other "Bob" and things like that. Also, if an author wants to make multiple syllable Jackal names, that's his right, and nobody here knows enough about the technicalities of Halo to be one hundred percent sure that he is wrong. It's called poetic liscense and we authors can make use of it whenever we feel like it. It helps to ease up on the writer so that he does not feel hindered by technicalities and can instead concentrate on storyline, action, description, etc.

Anyway, keep up the writing and you'll get better!

i have read others, but i just want mine to be something differant, its unrealistic and i kinda like it that way... besides, no one cares what their names are really, and maybe thoe one syllable names translated into human are names like adam and jamie??

Nope, but people can still write better, check out other stories by Walker, Wado, SOS.Odin, Helljumper, etc. Walker and Wado are close to writing to Nylund's skill, maybe even better in their own unique way. I just think that the names "Jamie" and "Adam" made it unrealistic. My opinion.

well thanx for some of your constructive critisism, at least its better than my first one.... the elites werent protecting the jackals specifically, just combatting the flood, and told the jackals to get out of the way.... i can give them names like adam and jamie, cos its my fan fic and its not really part of the halo story, jsut a figment of MY imagination, as for elites defending against the flood an dying too easily, your probrably right, i will keep in mind that elites are actually better than jacakls at fighting... i dont want my fan fic to be the smae as everyone elses, basically about marines and loads of confusing military calendar stuff and the like, anyway, vast improvement on my first ones comments.... thanx

Well don't Elites usually send in the Grunts and Jackals even if the situation is suicide. THey don't protect them. Oh well, nice story, I never knew the COvenant pitied humans.

Sorry but jackals have names like Jak, Yeg, Bok, and other one syllable names. Besides flood do not eat flesh, they infect, and if the one jackal was able to hold off those hords of infection forms then three elites could easily as well. Try not to take this offensively, I just wanted to point out some minor errors. Your story still has a lot of potential.

Sorry, but this was crap.

First, you're saying that Jackal's have names like "Adam" and "Jamie"? Second, way too many "......" and so on. Third, your grammar sucks along with the format. Fourth, I suggest you take some time to improve before writing again.
