Earth,New Mombasa

A planet that started the Human Race, full of cities and people. The great city of New Mombassa was once famous for the launching point of many famous UNSC warships. The cities tall skyscrapers tower everywhere, and it’s citizens happily have a high standard of living.

At least, this is the way is used to be, before the Covernment arrived.

The tall towers now burn as Plasma shots had crashed into them. The civilians all run in terror and Phantoms fly around, deploying troops and causing destruction to the human city. The UNSC army had been deployed, but they had been too slow. The Elites’ were already in the city and they fought in the buildings and streets. UNSC Navy warships had been deployed, but they needed time before they could engage in space, so for the time they were forced to watch the siege as they organised themselves.

On the ground, divisions of ground troops had been deployed to provide the civilians time to evacuate. They had access to Pelicans, Hornets, Falcons and many land vehicles like Scorpions and Warthogs, they even had a small division of Rhino’s. They started forming a line, but they heard a call. Several Spartan’s were needed assistance, and many teams were moving through the city to try locate them.

At the same time in space, the Covvies had a new surprised. The arrival a Covernment Super-Carrier, ‘Rebirth’s Vengeance. At the current moment, it was simply hovering in space above the City of New Mombassa, protecting the invasion fleet.

“This is a call to all UNSC ground forces. This is Admiral Stevenson on UNSC ‘Count Me In’. The Covvies had received reinforcements in the forms of a Super-Cassier Class ship. Our assault will have to occur much later than planned. Hold the ground forces off and we will commence assault when the rest of the fleet arrives” Came a call across all UNSC channels in the system.

Phantoms ruled the sky at the moment, deploying troops and vehicles with ease in a small landing zone just outside the city perimeter. Wraiths, Ghosts, Revenants, Troop Carriers, they had even started deploying AA Wraiths to protect themselves. It was the start of a fortress, and leading them was an Elite Commander. The base itself wasn’t large, but it was surrounded by Covernment troops.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sky woke up in a crashed warthog, which could be seen with a very large plasma burn as well as a cracked windscreen. Sky felt very tired, though thats what happens when you wake up in a crashed vehicle. As he crawled out he saw his weapons on the ground. He walked towards his assault rifle first, which was half covered in dirt. As he got too it he picked it up and put it onto his back. He also saw Four knives on the ground, though all of them were filthy. He would walk over and pick them all up. As he was about to clean them he heard a sound, the sound you hear from a cloaked Brute or Elite. Sky quickly turned aroudn and stabbed the air. After four seconds of holdign his knife their he pulled it back. A squirt of blood came out as a cloaked brute fell to the ground dead. Sky would then bend down and clean his knives on the brutes armor

After his knives were clean he walked towards his two Magnums, which were both next to each other. Unlike his other weapons they were clean. He would then put both of the guns into their hip holsters. After he did that he would pick his sniper up and attach it to his back.

After sky had his weapons sorted he would walk back to the destroyed vehicle. He would sit and lean against it. After he was sitting down Sky would take his helmet off and pull off a set of dog tags, a fair few dog tags. Out of them all he would see one that stood out, the Dog tags of his old friend back when he was still Firefox. Midnight Blossom's Dog tags.He had fought by her side hard, even had started to care for her back when they were ODST's, well, when he was a ODST and she was alive. He would then notice one set had a bit of blood on it still, the most recent friend he had lost. Stormchaser had taken a fatal shot to the head. He would shed a few tears before putting them all back on his neck and standing up.

The moment his helmet was back on he heard the familiar sound of a Phantom flying over head. Sky would instantly know what would happen. Before the gun ever turned to check the destroyed vehicle for survivors sky had already evaded to cover, which was a low concrete wall. Sky would hear foot steps, that would make him curse under his breath quietly. He recognized the sound, it seemed like two hunters, three brutes and maybe six Grunts. Sky wished he still had the team, though he was on his own. Sky would silently pull out his assault rifle. The moment he heard a brute talk he would step out and fire a short burst into its head, taking its shields down and killing it from the side.

Before the body even fell the rest of the troops had already reacted, save the grunts, and had returned fire. Sky leaped over his cover as he used his evade to doge the hunter blasts and to also get behind a hunter. As he did that the grunts would do what they normally did and do a Plasma grenade throwing frenzy. Half the grenades would land on a Hunter, the other half would go behind them. As soon as they were thrown sky would evade out of the explosion age. As soon as they went off sky had thrown his own Plasma grenade into the grunts, taking them all out as the Plasma grenades they still had exploded in a simultaneous explosion.

As soon as the grunts were dead Sky would shoot the hunter in the chest, causing it to aim at him. As he did that sky would turn and run. As it fired on him sky side stepped, causing the blast to nearly hit him. It took him a few seconds to get back to the Warthog, and once he was their he did a leap straight behind it. As he landed he would finnaly smile, the turret was still their, now he had to hope it worked. As he heard the hunter fire again sky would put his assault rifle on his back and pick the gun up and run, holding it in one hand. As soon as he exited the cover the warthog had provided the Covy saw him and shifted their fire towards him. As he was running sky would use evade once to doge a explosion, then he would hold the turret in both hands.

As he started firing the Hunter would rush in, only to take ten shots in the head, which made it fall over dead. Before sky could turn he saw a brute rush him. Sky would throw the turret into the brute, pinning him to the ground as he was winded. As the second one rushed in Sky would pull two knives, the two on his chest, and throw them. The first slammed into the brutes chest, bypassing the shields with ease. As soon as that one hit the second would go through its head. Sky would then feel a impact as the pinned brute got up and punched him. The moment the brute hit Sky, the Brute would pick Sky up and throw him. Sky would let the throw send him through the air, though he would not let the brute live. In midair sky would pull his two knives from their leg hosters and throw them at the brute, both of them slamming into its head. Sky would then land. The impact didnt hurt as his shields had regenerated before he had landed.

Sky would walk over and pull all his knives out of their respective corpses. He would also clean them on the deads armor before looking to the sky. Hell was breaking lose, though he already knew that. Sky would then start walking towards the city again. He knew that the UNSC would still need help, and now that it was just him their was nothing he could lose.

“the great spirit will guide me. Fear not mother earth you’re daughter is here to protect you!”

Old crow the buffalo Spartan said this as she was kneeling down in mediation. She grabbed the dirt with her armored hands and blew it away before standing up and putting her horned helmet on.

Old crow wore a black and brown e.o.d Spartan armor with several buffalo symbols etched in. her helmet was slightly modified to have her horns sticking out, but other than that her armor was standard e.o.d. she wore a painted on patch that was a Spartan helmet with buffalo horns. Being a buffalo she was a lot bulkier than most equestrian species, being a Spartan also didn’t help.

“o.k you ready old lady!” said one of the marines she was going in with.

“hey I may be old but I can still kick your plot.” She jokingly replied. She walked forward with the squad and boarded a pelican. While others sat down she stood up and just held on to a pipe in the vehicles wall.

“so umm ms. Spartan?” asked a mare next to her

“m.s Spartan was my mother. I’m petty officer crow.”

All the marines got a decent chuckle as the doors closed and they felt the pelican take off

“he he. Sorry I never met a Spartan … or a buffalo.”

Crow replied “at least I’m not a stallion then I would be 3 for 3 in rare things.”

Less laughter that time.

“are those your real horns sticking out of your helmet?”

crow chuckled. “no no, there metal plates covered in dragon bone .. they look real thought don’t they.” She replied haply.

Old crow patted the mare on the shoulder and walked to the cabin looking at the city and the carnage

The pilot looked over her shoulder at crow and said

“this is bad.”

Crow replied “yeah, but that’s why were here”

Covernment CSO Super-Carrier ‘Rebirth’s Vengence’, Sol-System, Command Center.

Luro ‘Vadem sat in his seat aboard his Super Carrier, the greatest ship in the fleet of ‘Divine Intervention’. His army was now laying siege to a human city, and he had a feeling this city was hiding the secrets about what the Prophets were hiding from him! His army was sieging the human city, the pathetic flilth, and soon would surely overrun it’s weak guards.

At that moment, he heard the elevator open, and a single human walked onto the bridge. All the Elites looked at her, as she walked towards their captain. The human was wearing the armour of an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, though it had seen a lot of field repairs from the numerous battle-scars it contained. While they all distrusted the human, they didn’t bat an eyelid at her. After all, Luro ‘Vadem was a master at manipulating and torturing humans, and this one was no different.

Midnight ‘Rose’ Blossom walked towards the Elite, bowing before him and removing her helmet. Her face had many scars, most noticeable was the one over her left eye from her hairline to her jaw, a mark she had taken from Luro to prove her loyalty to him. She stood up, brushing her long hair out of her face. Normally, the Elites would refuse a Human to fight with them, yet alone a woman! They should be back at home, protected. But Luro had seen her, she was stronger than many Sangheili he had under his command, and was a great assassin that served him.

“How goes the invasion, my master?” She asked Luro, once again, bowing to him. It was a habit Luro loved, his control over a human pet and her obedience meant he never questioned her. She had hundreds of times to kill him, even now she could. In her hands was her Shotgun, and his shields were offline.

“It goes well. There isn’t too much resistance, many teams have gone missing from what is Human Resistance, but that is nothing unexpected. The UNSC has a habit for brutality, doesn’t it Midnight” Normally, Humans were giving no name (Expect the Spartans, who had been summoned from the darkest places and hence, were demons), but to Luro, this one was special, and after serving him loyally, he ensured his troops and he, called her by her own name. “We have landed outside the city, and are preparing to advance. I have no need of you to go in yet, remain on standby until we meet worthy resistance or a team finds the opening. I don’t want to waste my best troops on these pathetic humans”

Midnight flinched, and Luro knew it. She hated the UNSC, loathed them, but she was still human. ‘For now she is’ thought Luro.

He stood up, knowing now was as good as time as any to get her completely onto his side.

“Brother! I have an announcement. As we all know, Midnight has turned from the Humans after they betrayed her, an action of cowards. We saved her, and she has displayed nothing but loyalty and determination for our cause since that day. Midnight, you are a Sister to us now, an official part of my fleet. But, if you wish you truly serve, then you must cast aside your humanity. You will no longer be human, but a sister to us! What do you say, Midnight?”

This declaration was a shock to all on the bridge. The crew knew that Midnight was part of their army sure, but for Luro ‘Vadem to make such a declaration! It had never happened in history.

“I...Accept. I am not fighting for humanity anymore, nor will i again. I fight for the Covernment, and give my life and services to you, Luro ‘Vadem” She replied, never a second of hesitation in her voice. She had her reasons for this, the UNSC had betrayed her too many times.

First, they had her in a cell and tortured her for seemingly no reason other than they thought she talked to the Covies after being a POW. Then, there was Fox, her old squadmate. He’d promised to always be there for her, to take care of her, and on their last mission, she’d been counting on him. Her trust in Fox got her into this mess, and she vowed to kill him if she ever found him again. She trusted him with her life, cared about him, and had a lot of feelings for her fellow ODST. Feelings that could end in a court martial if they were discovered, after all, ODST’s weren’t meant to fall in love.

But he left her to die! It was obvious he didn’t care for her, and she tried to discard all feelings about him. And she felt like she did, she’d deleted all images of them together on her datapad, removed all traces of her old ODST team, except..one image. She looked at her wristpad, which had her only image that was in paper, of all things. The original Squad, all smiling, laughing, on leave before that mission.

“Then Rise, Midnight. You are Human no longer! You are to be, ‘Shrill-kin’, and all Humans that join you. You will be my right hand and most trusted ally, to work and betray those who betrayed you before. Behind enemy lines where no Covernment before you could go”

Midnight stood up, she felt different. She was truly part of them now, and she cast her final thoughts to Humanity, she was one of them. Born, raised and she’d been fighting the Elites. But humans had betrayed her, and it was time for a new world. The world of the Shrill-Kin, to fight.

“What must I do, master?” She asked.

“Get your team of Zealots prepared. When we find you an objective, you will be deployed. Prepare yourself, you haven’t fought Humanity yet, and you best be prepared” Luro threw someting metal at her, and she caught it in her hand. She looked at it, it looked like Dog-tags, but she knew she had none. Luro said he couldn’t find them when he saved her, but she looked at them. They looked of human design, and on one said her name, title and rank.

‘Midnight ‘Rose’ Blossom, Right-Hand of Luro ‘Vadem, Staff-Sergeant’

Midnight walked out of the bridge without another word, and entered the elevator. She placed earbuds in her ears, and pressed play. Music started playing, somehow, she still had music. It was her safety net. It brought her sanity, comfort and kept her in check. She didn’t seek company, it sought her and she accommodated it. The song ‘Monster’ started playing, much to Midnight’s amusement. She started humming, as the elevator door closes, and she shot down towards ‘Rebirth’s Vengeances’ hanger bay.

Back on the bridge, an Elite in gold armor walked up to Luro ‘Vadem. “Ship Master, isn’t this dangerous? If she discovers the truth… Maybe this declaration was too soon”

“No, Brother, this is what she needed. She doesn’t suspect, and as long as none of us speak, she’ll never know. She might suspect, but given what we did to her, her hatred blinds her to the truth. She will serve us, she will activate the devices and when she does, she will walk the path with us”

In the Hanger of the Super-Carrier, Midnight quickly spotted her team. The Elite Zealot, known for being in small teams and heavily armed. Her team, was that perfectly. Armed with every weapon under the sun, it was a team of nearly 24 Elites, and herself. She stepped in, looking at them. The largest, Thel, nodded to her, and spoke to her in his language. Thankfully, Midnight had spent enough time around them to know, generally, what they were saying.

“Yes, we’re still on standby for now. Luro wants us ready when they find the entrance to the artifact. But, that doesn’t mean we’re gunna hang round doing nothing” The Elite smiled at that, getting aboad.

Soon, with Midnight at the controls, the ship took off into the sky, and left the Rebirth. Headed down to Earth, Midnight smiled. Vengeance indeed. And this time, it’ll be all hers.

Sky would see a phantom flying towards the earths surface, or as sky could see it, his new target. Right now he wished he had a Spartan Laser, that would have the range and damage to at least blow the engines, though as sky had no weapon that was strong enough to damage it, he decided to just walk into the city. As he was walking sky would hear more and more phantoms entering the atmosphere. He could also hear the battle in space. From the ground, the best he could see was that the UNSC was taking a beating, though he knew all too well that nothing can be taken for granted.

Sky would hear shooting behind him, and Sky's reflexes said to duck for cover, though Sky knew better. As the first bolt went past sky he jumped in the air, using his evade and enhanced jump and agility to backflip. As he was in mid air the ghost went straight under him. Before sky even landed his sniper was in his hands. Sky would turn and let himself land with a roll. The moment he rolled the sniper was already aimed straight ahead though he did not shoot yet.

After about ten seconds the ghost would pull a sharp turn, causing it to come back straight at sky. The plasma cannons on it started firing though sky stood their, scope aimed. All the plasma hit the dirt around him, not even one hit him. After five seconds of the ghost boosting towards sky and the dirt aroudn him being thrown up sky pulled the trigger once, hitting the elite driving it square in the head, going straight through his shields. Sky would then put his sniper back on his back as the ghost slowed down to a stop. it was right in front of sky.

Sky would then walk towards it and push the elite off the vehicle. The bullet didnt cause any damage to the vehicle, and there was no blood from the elite, which means...

The moment sky thought that he would jump back as a energy sword swung at him, missing the ghost, and him, by millimeters. Sky would then draw his duel magnums quickly and fire off six rounds, three from each, into the un shielded elite. The elite would fall dead. Sky would then reload both of them before putting them away and drawing his sniper. He would reload it along with his assault rifle. As his weapons were all back in their respective spots sky would climb onto the Ghost and gun the engines. He was glad that this thing was undamaged, it would make his trip that much easier. Sky then would turn the ghost around and start boosting towards where he saw the Phantom was heading towards.

Midnight sat behind the controls, her Phantom was flying around the city lazily, not doing much. She didn't want to engage, not yet, so she opted to listen to her squad chat on the Radio. Rumors of a 'Demon' in the city.

Demon, Spartans, they are the same thing and they die if you shot them enough. Midnight turned her attention to the street in front of her, spotting a single Ghost headed, towards her?

She zoomed the Camera in, spotting a human behind its wheel. She frowned, what was a Spartan doing this far out? Whatever the reason, if would just have to die. She flicked on the plasma cannon, and the heavy blaster underneath the cockpit started firing at the Ghost. Midnight flicked more switches, preparing to be shot at. She prepared the jump-lifters, meaning that when they shot back, the Phantom would lift higher, meaning the shots would miss horrible as she fired back.

"Attention asshole!" She called out on the ship's com-system. Her voice would be blurred, but anyone could tell it wasn't an elite speaking. "Prepare to get melted!" She turned her head to her co-pilot "Better get them ready to deploy, a Spartan should be entertaining"

"Fleet-Master Luro 'Vadem, this is Midnight. I have encountered a Spartan. Permission to start my mission early?"

"Do as you wish, but you must be ready to leave them if we discover the enterance. Understood"

"Roger that Fleet-Master"

The moment sky saw the turret swiveling into position he knew what was about to happen, he had done this long enough to know that when a Phantom decided to fire on you, you DONT want to be in the way though just as sky was about to act, he heard the com on the phantom yell out to him, which only made him suspicious. That was no elite calling on there, it was not grunt either, they would not be able to fly like that. It was no Brute either, they would all be in the cargo bay preparing to launch. Sky was confused, if it was not any of them, then what was talking? Thats when sky realized it was a human voice, a female human voice at that. He would be shocked though it would only last a second before he acted to stay alive.

Sky would not fire back, he could tell that the pilot of this ship had skill and if he even tried to fire back he would only get himself killed, well, if he fired with this ghost that is. The moment the first plasma bolt got close to him sky would gun the engines. To sky, right now everything was in slow motion, he could see where the bolts were, and he was having no trouble dogging them with ease right now. Sky would see a building in his way, he knew this would normally be a hazard though this time he could use it. As Sky neared the building he would fire the engines and jump off. As he landed he did a roll. As sky leaped up from the roll he would see a plasma bolt go straight past him. Sky would ignore it, it missed and he had to keep moving if he wanted to live he would not be able to stop.

Sky would then run, the dirt being thrown up all around him as the heavy plasma bolts slammed into the ground all around him. Sky would see a spartan lazer on the ground next to a dead marine, well, more like a dead squad of marines. Sky would do a dive, grabbing the big gun, which would have slowed him down if he was not a spartan. Sky saw the moment he picked it up that only one charge remained, which meant he would need to make this shot count. Sky would charge the lazer up for three seconds before turning around and taking a quick shot, he aimed it at the turret. The moment the shot fired sky would drop the gun and keep running towards another building, one that he hoped he could use to escape this crazy driver.

Midnight frowned as the Spartan managed to dodge all of her shots. Sure, she hadn't expected to hit him, but what she was seeing wasn't what she was used to from Spartans. Still, she kept firing, until she saw the flash of red and had many buttons flashing red.

Her turret had been shot off!

She turned her ships com on again. "Where you going, Spartan? Thought you were the best the UNSC had to offer, since you're bodies are more messed up than anything!"

She moved the Phantom over the Spartan, making it obvious they couldn't outrun her! She flicked a switch, and out of her ship dropped 4 Elites.

One of them was a Blood-Red Zealot. Armed with a Concussion Rifle, he raised his rifle. In his pocket sat an Energy Blade. Ranked at Major, he knew how to fight very well. The next was a Captain, and armed with a portable Plasma Turret. The other 2 both held 2 Plasma repeaters, expertly aimed at Sky. It was obvious that all 4 of these Elites knew how to fight.

Midnight smiled, she was sure that they would be capable to taking out the freak. Back when she was with Humanity, she'd often ranted to her fellow ODST's that she joined because she thought they were the best of the best, and now they were replaced by the Spartans. Enhanced freaks, they were barely human.

She flicked the Com on again "Say hello to my friends, Freakshow. They are all very much looking forwards to smashing your face to a pulp. Go get the freak boys!"

Following their cue, all 4 Elites started firing at Sky, their shots all aimed at Sky without much deviation.

Sky would see the turret go flying off as his lazer scored a direct hit, it was better then a direct hit, it hit the weakest spot on the turret. Sky would smile, his success proving yet again in the strength the UNSC had, that they would not be over run that easy, that their profits could NOT kill of the human race without a fight, a fight he planned to keep up, a fight that he would not give up until he felt that fatal shot take him out. Sky would then see the Phantom fly over him, which was when he heard those words.

"Where you going, Spartan? Thought you were the best the UNSC had to offer, since you're bodies are more messed up than anything!"

Those very words reminded him of his old friend, Midnight, who used to boast constantly about the ODST, that they were the 'Best Humanity had to offer'. Sky would leave it at that though, a distant thought. His friend had died a long time ago. That was when he saw the four elites land onto the ground, and he knew this was not going to be as easy as it was before.

The moment they exited the ship sky was already calculating how he was going to do this. The first one would easily be the hardest, Zealots had enforced shields that were VERY hard to take out, though he knew that it was possible. Sky had already guessed the easiest way to do this, the roof of the building would give him chances to take them out using the height, though it also gave them the opportunity to do that to him as well, which was something he did NOT want to happen, that would be hard to recover from.

As the second one came down sky was already trying to figure out how to do this though he also saw a way to make this work for him. If he could get his hands on that turret, he would have the fire power to take down the zealots shields, though getting that turret would be the hard part. The roof would not work for this guy, the fact that he has the same armor upgrade and was stronger then a lot of elites.

As the other two came down sky would grin, it was obvious these two were the weakest of the group, and with their normal shields he would have a easy time killing them with one blow, if he could get close enough.

"Say hello to my friends, Freakshow. They are all very much looking forwards to smashing your face to a pulp. Go get the freak boys!"

The moment 'Say' Was said sky was already moving, he used evade to flip to the side, making all the shots go no where near him. Sky would draw his assault rifle and open fire on the weaker two, he fired six shots at each. After he did that he would put his gun into one hand as he sprinted towards the elites from the side.

Midnight watched at the Spartan managed to evade their initial barrage That was not good, and watching it happen. She couldn't do anything to help them! With her turret out of commission, and no real desire to join in. That's when two of them got taken out rather quickly.

She was stuck, when her Radio turned on.

"Orders?"

​"We've found the entrance, i need your team at the co-ordinates i just sent you. Get that location secure and stop any UNSC from knowing what we're up too. They can't know that we're looking for an Artifact"

"On it, i lost some of my team to that Spartan. But it's nothing we can't recover from"

"I hope you're right about that"

Midnight switched the Radio off, and flicked another button. Signalling the two remaining Elites to recall onto the Phantom. The Major with the concussion Rifle started to back away, while the one armed with the Plasma turret held his ground, continuing to spray at Sky.

Midnight turned on the Com again "You're a slippery one, aren't you, freak show? Just die!" her voice amplied to the Spartan.

Sky would see the Zealot trying to run, which gave him a very good idea. Sky would rush towards the elite with the LMG, dogging all the blaster bolts that were sent his way with ease. As he was running he would put his assault rifle away, it would be no use to him in this situation. As he neared the elite sky would evade right next to him and pull a knife from his chest. The knife would go straight threw the elites neck, piercing through it and coming out the front. Sky would then pull out his sniper. He knew he only had a minute before the Zealot got to the Phantom, and he also knew that this would be harder later if he survived. Sky quickly leveled the sniper and fired off a clean four shots, all aimed at the head with the exception of one. The last shot was aimed at his leg. Sky needed more time.

As soon as he fired sky would put his sniper back on his back and he would sprint, using his evade to move faster. The elite, who had been crippled by the leg shot, could not move fast enough to doge sky. The moment sky caught up a second knife was pulled out. Sky knew that the shields would have regenerated by now, and a gun would take to long even at this range, a steel blade like his knife would go straight through with ease. Sky would plunge it straight through its eye. Sky would pull the blade out and look at the ship. He knew that it was too late, he could not board it in time and even if he got on there was probably too many for him to fight.

Sky would walk towards the LMG gunner, he wanted his knife back. Sky would pull his knife out and clean both of them on the elites armor. As soon as sky put the knives back into their chest sheathes he would look at stare at the Phantom. He knew he needed to wait until irt was gone before he moved, though that did not mean he did nott want to know where this thing went. Sky would draw his sniper and he would secretly without anyone being able to notice put a small tracking device into the top of the clip. Sky would take aim and fire it, the shot hitting the under belly of the Phantom. Sky would follow up with emptying the clip into the Phantom. The moment he ran out he would reload and put his gun away.

Midnight could only watch as the remaining Elites got torn apart by the Spartan. It was nothing short of a slaughter, and she was now down to 20, not including herself. She heard the sounds of a sniper being fired at her ship. Why would the Spartan waste his ammo, surely he knew as well as she that it wouldn't work.

Whatever the reason, she had to leave, but not before giving him a final taunt "You win this round, freak. But i'll be back" She said, before flying away from the Spartan. She heard a call on her com, apparently one of the shots got through, thankfully, it missed her team. She was headed to the building, and set the Phantom on alto-Pilot.

As she did, she punched the console, hard. She'd screwed up! Now 4 of her team were dead for no good reason. She felt herself physically shake in anger at her failure, and looked back at the image of the Spartan she'd saved on the Phantom's database. No matter what, she would kill him for doing that to her team.

Her Phantom eventually stopped at, of all places, the Cities Sports area. Large and and oval, she doubted the UNSC cared that she landed here.

She exited her ship, taking her team with her. The staduim now had a giant hole in the middle, and a passageway. Following it for a short time, she found what they were looking for. It looked like an ancient door, and beside it, a console to open it. Midnight strode forwards, and pressed her open palm against it. The door slowly opened to her, and they moved inside. She checked, the Stadium was only being guarded by a couple Grunts, and was only a kilometre from where she lost members of her team. She ordered the Grunts to radio her incase something happened.

With that, she ventured deeper into the forgotten structure. Created by the Fore-Runners many years ago, it contained something that Luro wanted, and she would happily retrieve it for him if it meant revenge.

Sky would see in his helmet a map with a read dot flying away, which didnt go that far. After three minutes it would stop in a area Sky new all too well. The cities sport stadium. Sky would sit down and sigh. Those words that he had heard, they were all taunts he had heard before. Midnight. Sky knew that was impossible though, she was dead. He had taken her dog tags himself. After a minute of standing there thinking sky would sigh, he knew he had to keep moving. Sky would start walking towards the stadium.

After four minutes of walking sky would hear gun fire, no, he would hear a explosion then Gunfire. Sky would grab his assault rifle off his back and sprint towards where he heard the fight. It took him two minutes to arrive right where he though he would be. As sky saw the fight, he noticed who was fighting, it was a squad of ODST. They were up against three elites and a dozen grunts, which would normally be no match for ODSTs though this time round it was harder. Sky would rush in and jump into the fray, doing a roll as he landed. The roll carried him to cover.

Sky would see the ODSTs were keeping their heads down, they knew that this was all to easy now. Sky would grin through his helmet as he saw a ODST with a shotgun. He would smile, this just got that much easier. Sky would put his assault rifle on his back and then take the shotgun off the ODST, who handed it over without question.

Sky would then leap the cover and rush in, dogging every plasma shot aimed at him. As he neared the group sky would jump and do a flip. The moment sky entered the flip he felt time slow down yet again as he moved his shotgun towards the first elite, who looked sky in the face with a look of terror in his eyes, that was before the shotgun blast went through his shields and sent him into a wall. Sky would then land flat on his feet and sidestep, dogging four plasma grenades, which landed on a elite who was behidn sky. Sky used the explosion to push him forwards towards the last elite, and as he neared sky would press the shotgun right against his gut, and with that sky pulled the trigger.

The moment the ODST heard the last elite die they would leap out of cover and take out the remaining grunts with ease

"Thank you sir" They would say to sky, who would look back and say

"Im going to need your help, radio every UNSC channel in the area, and tell them to go to the sports stadium, the Covey have found something there that we want"

With that the ODST would salute Sky and radio it in "All UNSC units, move towards the stadium"

Sky would see two Warhogs nearby, he knew that they would be useful. Sky would point towards them and he would jump in the drivers seat. The ODST spread themselves and got onto both of the vehicles. Sky would smile as he gunned the engine and raced towards the stadium.

Crow went to the back of the pelican again and said to her marines “anyone been to Mombasa before?

Most of the marines raised hands. it would be a good advantage to have knowledge of the streets with them.

“all right this is your L.Z” shouted the Captain. And with that the door opened up. Crow quickly jumped out and brandished her b.m.r fortunately there were no covenant and she put the gun over her shoulder as the pelican landed. As the marines got off the one that called her “old lady from early said “the plan is to aid in the perimeter. We go forward attack a covenant landing strip, destroy the reinforcement, and then start surrounding them from outside the city. You understand bone head!” she joked. “of course I do tiny” she jeered back

“maim!’ begged one of the marines behind her “stop antagonizing the genetically altered killing machine!”

it was far from antagonizing though. It was nice to feel like a normal pony for once in her life and have someone to joke with.

They began hiking to the covenant station and sure enough by zooming in with her visor she found it!

After quickly scouting the area and counting 4 squads with several jackal snipers she ducked behind one of the many abandon cars and said “all right stay behind me and move to cover if we can get the jump on them then its all over,” she bent over and began running from car to car observing the jackals making sure they wouldn’t be spotted.

She took a breath and continued to move signaling her marines to continue the creep. In all honesty was certain that she would handle the situation, but she wanted to reduce the casualties of the marines.

Soon she was close enough he looked thru the scope of her d.m.r and put the reticule over each of the jackals heads. “o.k don’t fire until I move out.” She asked She then reset her reticule on the closest one and took a quick easy pull.

HEADSHOT

Matching her breathing with her movements she quickly took aim at the next jackal and fired at the panicked bird.

Headshot

Now she was certain the jackals knew where she was and quickened her aim movement to the next one. the jackal spotted her and fired but missed. Crow fired,

Bodyshot. “NO” she said aloud and quickly fired again into the creatures body killing it. The jackals fired there beam rifles and one got lucky grazing her shoulder destroying her shield. And of course the moment her shield was down the covenant began to move in.

One sniper left and incoming covies. Here we go!

Whenever old crow went into a fight, not sniping not leading into a fight, but the heat of battle, she didn’t talk, didn’t even really think. If she could describe it in any way it was almost as if the great spirit itself takes hold of her.

Crow jumped over the car and scoped the D.M.R firing 3 rapid shots at the jackal across the battlefield. The second shot killed it, the 3rd shot was just an extra fire just to make sure.

She landed with several plasma bolts coming at her. She quickly ran to the side firing into the elite leading the attack. A few shots destroyed its shield! But Crow ran out of room on the highway to strafe and ducked behind an overturned car. She inspected herself for damage. As her shield began to build up a recharge, she had taken a plasma pistol shot to the knee and stomach but the plating protected her. After hearing her favorite sound in the world, (her shield recharging) she got out of cover and saw the enemy squad trenched in, the marines had taken up the fight and there distraction probably saved her life.

The elite was behind cover barking orders to it’s grunts who were making there best efforts to kill the marines. Crow ran forward and pulled out her frag. She threw at the car next to the elite. She fired her dmr at the elite who focused his attention on her again. She then threw her last frag at him. The elite as she expected saw this and lunged away. Right into her fist grenade! It went off instantly killing the elite. This sent his grunts into a panick making them easy even for the marines to handle. A few shots from the d.m.r finished up what was left of the squad.

Now there were 3 squads bunkered down against her and the marines. There wasn’t a lot of cover between them and her position, which included covenants floating sniper perch. And a few of those purple supply boxes.

Crow reloaded her rifle and ran forward, shuffling to the left and right to avoid plasma shots, she got hit a few time before she maid it to the first supply box she could use as cover. But the damage was so little she ignored it and jumped over the box firing her dmr at the nearest elite. After a few shots it went down but now her shield was down again! She jumped back down behind the box and waited, a grunt rounded the corner but it wasn’t fast enough and got a bullet to the head. Soon the shield was restored and she came out blasting. Moping up the grunts quickly making headshots on the gigantic heads.

Now with only half a mag left of her dmr she ran towards the sniper perch which had an elite trying to shoot her with a plasma cannon. She ran forward and got at just the right angle where he couldn’t shoot her. She fired away at what was left of her dmr into the elites gut killing it. “sometimes there just so dumb” Now with only a few grunts and a single elite left she ran over the corpse of grunt picked up a plasma and threw it at the final elite who had stayed behind cover with a fuel rod gun waiting to make an ambush.

The marines came in and mopped up the grunts. Crow smiled as she saw not a single marine died. She set the dmr on a supply box and picked up some grenades and a plasma rifle. Soon some more pelicans and ship s flew in and began setting up. The marine who was in charge came up to her and said “thanks were going to set this place up as a b.a.s and an evac zone. We’ll move out again in a little bit. Some unsc items were dropped like a warthog and some turrets. Suddenly she got a radio transmission from her helmet.

It was odst asking for help at the stadium. “uh oh. Odst are practically Spartans! If they need help then its not good. You guys got anything fast?” she asked over her com channel to the pelicans. One of the pilots replied “yeah here we go just for you buffalo solder.

A mongoose was dropped and Crow quickly got on. Saying “ill handle this on my own keep up the good work.!”

Unkown Fore-Runner Artifact, Sol System, Earth.

Midnight and her team kept walking through the facility, it was a silent and slow journey without much action at all. After all, it had been the longest time since anyone walked where they were. Midnight thought back to the Spartan who had killed some of her team, Spartans. They were still freaks, still inhumane. ODST’s should be superior!

Midnight froze, there it was! Across a long narrow bridge, was the artifact. Big and grey, it filled up the giant Chamber easily. Midnight let out a whisle, it was impressive. Herself and her team crossed the bridge with no sense of urgency. After all, they should be safe. With many teams guarding the door at the Stadium, no much was getting through to them.

She found the control panel, and Thel bowed to her. They all, including Midnight, knew what had to be done. They needed a human to do this, they couldn’t do it without. Midnight took of her glove, and pressed her open hand against the button. Suddenly, the machine started powering up.

Everyone took a step back, and right then, a giant star map came out (Similar to the one in Halo Wars). Everyone was in silence, just staring at it.

“Quickly! Start getting recordings of this, we need to find out what this place is pointing us to go. Luro was right, we found the artifact. Lets get ready to roll, we’ve got plenty to get done”

Everyone, except Midnight, pulled out cameras and started to record parts of the Star Map. She was looking straight at the pulsing planet. It was one she recognized, Jerriico VIII, the planet where she became an ODST after holding off the Covvy assault.

If this is really where we start, than it is a cruel twist of fate indeed’

In that moment, she found herself back on that planet.

Defending a UNSC fort, her troops dying around her, Covvies assaulting the walls all day, every day, wounded with no form of medicine, running low on ammo. She could still hear the screams as they died around her. Her team, her division, everyone but her and a few other. Dead. She failed them, and their faces covered in blood flashed in front of her eyes.

“Midnight? Are you ok?” Came a voice in an alien tone, Thel was looking down at her. She looked back to the Elite, and replied in his language.

“Y-yeah, i am. Just remembering about my past, about a certain planet. B-back when..” She started, but she stopped herself. She wasn’t human anymore! She was Shrill-Ken, not human. She unclipped her helmet, taking it off and placing it on her belt. Her long blue hair getting loose.

“You are a sister to us Midnight, think not of your past. Think now of the great future you are part of”

“Y-yeah, i’m sorry. Lets continue, Luro needs this data”

She continued her recordings, but the mosre she looked at the system, the more it looked like the map was directing them to Jeriico VIII. It was hell for her, the old her.

She walked back to the bridge, sitting on the edge, looking back where they’d walked. She found it amusing, she used to be a member of the ODST’s, humanities best, fighting Covvies whenever she could. Now look at her, trying to help Elites fight against the UNSC. How the tables turned.

‘That’s what you get, for torturing me. Karma is gunna bite you back, hard’ though to herself, before double-checking her shotgun. It had been with her since Jeriico VIII, and had the marks to prove it. She never got rid of it though, it was almost part of her.

She flicked her radio on, calling all of Luro’s forces on the planet.

“This is the hand of Luro. We’ve found the artifact, i repeat, we’ve found it. All units are to hold their ground and wait until we extract before falling back to their vessels. Our data shouldn’t take much longer, but we will need reinforcements to be ready to be deployed at the Artifacts location if needed. Doubtful the UNSC know what we’re up to yet, and lets keep it that way”

She had to admit, the Elite’s language was a strange one, it had taken her a LONG time to learn it, but now it was almost as natural as english to her now. Though, it wasn’t perfect. She didn’t know all the words and if they spoke quickly enough, she was left baffled. She picked her helmet back up, placing it on her head and securing it on. Time was short, she just hoped the UNSC didn’t check their sports stadium until it was too late..

Sky would look ahead as he gunned the engine of the Warthog. He knew that the covey had no interest in the sports that they played, so why stop at a stadium?. Sky was still confused as he saw the stadium ahead. He knew what had to be done, even at the cost of his own life he would fight through this battle. The moment he saw the stadium he would scan the area for the amount of hostiles that he could see, which he could already tell would be a harder challenge then he needed right now. So far he could already see that this place had more then a full squad here.

The first hostile he would see would be another pair of hunters, meaning that they REALLY wanted this place, hunters were not deployed to defend area's without a good reason. This would make sky wonder about something, why? Why were they interested in this place. Sky would drop it as he saw the next biggest threat, which was five minor elites. Even though they were still minor troops, they still had enough skill to screw him over with ease if he made one wrong move, though this was something that sky had gotten used to doing and, from experience, he knew that as long as he did not stay still he would win this with ease. He would then see two ghosts that were speeding towards them, meaning that stealth was going to be no option this time around. As sky looked at the ghosts he saw a swarm behind them, a swarm of grunts. Sky would quickly notice twenty six of the, which he knew would not be easy but if he could take their leaders out, they would shoot each other in fear. Sky would then see the last of the defense, three brutes that seemed to be the only ones other then the ghosts trying to get in close, which Sky knew if that happened he would have a hard time.

Sky would look at the ODST who was next to him, sky knew that these guys were the best that the UNSC had to offer, and he also knew that these guys can adapt fast. "Take the wheel, see you on the other side" Sky would say as he leaped onto the front of the vehicle. Sky would grin in determination as all the plasma went straight past him, though sky would see one shot that was on a course to slam into the wheel. Sky would quickly lean to one side, causing the vehicle to swivel and the plasma missed. Sky would then reset his balance as he waited another four seconds. The moment he counted to five sky would jump off the front of the vehicle.

Sky would land clean on one of the ghosts with a hear able thud as his heavy armor and his landing caused a dent in the ghost. Sky would duck as the driver quickly drew a plasma pistol, and as he ducked every shot would miss. Sky would not make the same mistake as he drew his left leg holster. Sky would level the gun and fire, killing the grunt with a single shot. Sky would then slide the gun back into its holster as he jumped into the driver seat. Sky would do a sharp turn and then he would start gunning the engine towards the battle again.

As sky was driving he would see the Warthog gunners letting the guns fire all the lead they could manage. Sky would look and see one of the two warthogs fire a fatal shot that hit the driver of the other ghost, causing the vehicle to speed uncontrollably towards one of the brutes. The brute would not have the time to doge as the vehicle rammed him into a wall, crushing his chest and killing him painfully. Sky would gun the engines as he let the plasma cannons fire towards the other two Brutes. As sky boosted towards them, shooting at the same time, he would see a fuel rod shot, which had come from the brutes, on a collision course with the Ghost. Sky knew this was his stop, and he had planned to jump anyway. After two seconds sky would leap out of the speeding ghost, doing a roll as he drew his assault rifle.

The moment sky's roll ended he was already shooting at the brutes. One went down fast as it took seven shots into the chest, which absolutely annihilated its shield, but the fatal shot was one that went straight through its skull. Sky would put his gun on his back as he drew both his magnums at once, they had ammo unlike his assault rifle. The moment sky got close he would fire off two annoying shots from one of his guns, both the shots hit the brute in the chest. The brute would rage as he leaped at sky, though that was what he was counting. on. Sky would evade underneath the jump and once he was behind, sky would fire off four rounds from each gun, ending both the brutes rampage and its life.

Sky wound then slide both the handguns into there hip holsters as he would yet again draw his assault rifle and reload it, right now he wanted it more then his duel pistols. Sky would rush in solo, leaving the ODST's to take out the weaker units."Leave the elites and those hunters to me, just kill those grunts" Sky would order them as he sprinted towards the elites. The moment sky had a clear shot he would shoot the first elite straight in the head with a small burst of six shots, three of which managed to get past its shield and kill it off. Sky then ran up to the other elites, assault rifle in hand. As sky neared them he would use evade to do a flip to the outskirts of the group, shooting as he flipped. Sky would see one elite fall to the ground dead. Sky would see all three left put their plasma rifles away. If sky had still been a ODST, right now he would be dead. Sky quickly put his assault rifle on his back with one hand as he drew one knife with the other, using it to block the first swing.

Sky would shove off the elite as he drew a second knife. He knew how to do this, though it would not be easy. Sky would act quickly, doing a roll to doge one swing. Skys roll would bring him next to the elite who had just swung, and sky would leap up behind him. Sky would then stab one of his knives through the elites head. The moment sky pulled the knife out he would duck, and he did so at just the right time. The moment sky ducked a energy sword would appear above his head. Sky would shove the dead elite onto the one who had just stabbed the corpse. As sky looked at the last one he would grin, rushing in. This elite would be more careful then his friends, rushing in though keeping his blade up. Sky would run right up to its blade, though just when the elite tryed to jab him sky would sidestep and stick one knife through its chest. As the elite was crying in pain sky would grab the same knife he had just stabbed it with and twist it, causing him more pain. Sky would pull the knife out and stab the elite in the head. The moment he stabbed sky would pull his blade out and put them both back onto his chest. Sky would pull his assault rifle off his back and he would fire ten shots into the pinned elites head.

Sky would turn towards the Hunters who seemed to be scared, which was a first. Sky would hold his gun ready as he sprinted towards them. As sky got into melee range he would use evade to duck under a swing of a shield, which missed Sky by three millimeters. As sky appeared behind the hunter he would pull out a stick grenade and stab it straight into the hunters unarmored back. Sky would quickly evade as the explosion killed off the hunter with ease. The second hunter would rush in, only for sky to place his landmine. Sky would stand right behind where he had placed it. As the hunter reached him sky would grin as he jumped back. The hunter would step on the explosive, and it would send him into the air as well as killing it. The explosion sent sky straight into a set of chairs, which hurt alot as his shields had gotten taken out from the mine. Sky would stand up and grab his assault rifle which was lying a step or two away from him.

Sky would jump off the chair stand to see the ODST advancing towards the grunts. Sky would start to run in to the fray. As sky arrived their was only seven grunts left and without leadership they were running amok. Sky would just shoot them off one by one.

"All UNSC this is Spartan Delta 226, i need help securing the sports stadium. Please respond if you are able to assist" Sky would order over the main UNSC com channel, knowing that right now he was unlikely to get backup though it was also worth a try.

"How many did we lose?" Sky would ask

"None, though we did lose both warthogs" The ODST leader would say to sky. The leader would then move his squad towards where the covey had been defending though they didnt enter, not without the spartan their to help.

Sky would walk towards a crashed warthog, which had been their when he had arrived here. Sky would sigh as he sat down. The covey had no where to run, and he would need reinforcements, especially if that squad was here again, those four had been easier then the rest of them would be as a group.

"I hope someone comes" Sky would say as he waited, hoping that at least they would get a sniper team or a marine squad.

"Humans! They're attacking!"

That call, mixed with loud screams and reports of a Spartan and an ODST team had started their assault on the sports ground. How? How did they know? However, they needed to be stopped! They hadn't finished getting the data yet, they needed more time!

She called out to some of her team and instantly, some moved. A team of 12 Elites moved. 8 Elite Minors, armed with various weapons such as Plasma Repeaters, Plasma Rifles, Carbines and grenades. The other 4 were all Zealots. One was armed with a Fuel Rod Cannon, another armed with a Plasma LMG, the third was armed with a Concussion Rifle, and the final was sporting a another Plasma LMG. The 12 Elites crossed the bridge, heading back towards the entrance. They headed towards the entrance, waiting to encounter the Humans that are trying to interrupt them. .

As they left, Midnight shook her head. They wouldn't stop the Spartan, and they needed to prepare. Midnight called her troops in.

"Thel, finish getting this data and grab us a Phantom, we'll need a quick exit. The rest of you, listen carefully. Cause this can only work when you all do as i order"

Midnight explained her plan to her team, and they thought she was mad. How was this going to work? Still, they never questioned her, they went along with it. Everyone got into their positions, and had their role to play.

As for Midnight, she stood in the middle of the temple, facing Thel. When the UNSC forces arrive, they would see an ODST collapse onto the ground and a huge Elite running through the secret exit at the back. That's all they would see, and hopefully, fall right into her trap.

Sky would look at the ODST squad who were walking towards the fore runner door that was there. Sky had no idea how that had got their though he did know that behind that door hell would break lose. He also knew that this fight would be hard, that elite squad was behind that door, he just knew it. What he did not know was who the leader was. Those elites had gone down fast though they were harder then some others he had fought. Sky would stand up and walk towards the door where the ODST were waiting for him, the team of six were ready to move in a a moments notice.

"Il go in first and take the heat off you guys, come in behind me and keep me covered" Sky would order as he walked up to the door. Sky would look at it for three seconds before opening it. As he opened it he would see the door way was clear. Sky would wonder why, why leave the entrance unguarded? Why let them get inside. Thats when sky realized, it was a trap, a very well played trap. "Come on in bu follow me, dont go in front just stay right behind me" Sky would order as he started walking deeper into the temple. He was surprised about how this place looked, it was ancient and it had been on earth the whole time. Sky would shke it off as he kept on walkign towards the center of this place.

After three minutes of walking sky felt something was up. Why had they not been engaged yet, that was when sky would hear the click of a grenade. The moment that click was heard sky's left hand had already drawn his left magnum. Sky would wait two seconds before aiming straight up. Where sky had aimed a blue light could be seen, a plasma grenade was flying through the air. Sky would fire once, making the grenade explode in mid air.

"INTO COVER, DEAL WITH THOSE LMG'S" Sky would yell as he saw the twelve elites come from cover. Time would slow once again as sky analyzed his opposition. There was eight lower ranking ones that seemed lightly armed compared to the others. They still seemed like they would be a challenge though. Sky would grin, already knowing their weak points. If sky could get close to them, his hand guns would pierce straight through their shields if he could press it against their necks. The other four on the other hand, were going to be a hell of a lot harder. Sky knew the ODST would take out the two with the LMG's for him, which left the one with the fuel rod and the other one with the Concussion rifle. Sky would draw his second magnum as he grinned, and took four short steps before breaking into a sprint.

Sky was sprinting towards the elite group, dogging a hail of plasma shots that were being fired at him. Sky would use evade as he saw a green flash, and from that flash a green shot fired out. A fuel rod shot. Sky would use his evade to leap onto a wall, using his momentum to push straight off it. As he jumped sky would shoot four shots from each pistol though each one was aimed at a different elite. Each shot directly hit them in the head, bringing down two of the lower class elites with ease. Sky would put both his pistols away as he dogged yet another Fuel shot. The range he was in called for somethign other then those weapons.

Sky would get up to the other six lower class elites, who were all shooting at sky though one of them was smart and drew its energy sword. Sky would pull out two of his combat knives, the two from his chest, as he engaged the elite in knife to sword combat. Sky would duck as the blade went over his head by a centimeter. Sky would strike back with a well placed jab, though the elite would manage to redirect it. The blade would still go through the elites armor, though it would not be the fatal blow but unknown to the elite, he had just signed his own death warrent. As sky's blade went into the elites side skys other hand would come around, stabbing the elite straight in the neck. Sky would twist both blades, causign the elite to cry out in pain before it fell limp. Sky would pull both blades out and slide them back into there sheathes.

Sky would see out of the corner of his eye a ODST duck under the Elites legs as he put the shot gun right against its back. The barrel was too close for shield to stop, and the shots went straight through killing it in a instance. Sky would also see twenty lines of smoke, most likely from a sniper. Sky would hear a agonizing cry of the other elite as each shot slammed into it, taking its shields and life within thirty seconds. Sky would then see from the other corner two elites startign to rush sky, two more normal ones. Sky would quick draw both his magnums as he turned ninety degrees towards both the elites. As the elites got close sky would do a jump straight over the two. In mid air sky would flip so that his head was closer to the ground then his feet, and he also turned so that he was facing the necks of the elites. Sky would aim both guns as time slowed for him yet again. As sky pulled the triggers both the elites would fall dead as a bullet ripped straight through there necks, the weakest part of the body.

Sky would see the remaining three minor elites turn towards him. Sky would stand his ground though he would see a green flash yet again, which made sky change his mind. He would rush fowards towards the three elites, and at the same time they would rush at him. Sky felt a energy bolt slam into his chest, though thanks to his shields sky was not fazed nor injured by the blast. As he neared the three sky would doge more blaster bolts as he pressed both his magnums against one of their chest. "Burn in hell" Sky would say before firing both the magnums. The range the shots were fired caused the bullets to come out the elites back, slamming into the head of another elite. Both the elites would fall, though not before sky fired off one full clip, half a clip from each gun, into the chest of the last elite. They would all fall before sky looked towards the two zealots left.

As sky looked at him they both would look at him. They knew that there was no chance for survival, though that did not mean they would give up. They would both start shooting at sky though one of them, the one with the fuel rod, would only get two shots off before a sniper round rang through its head. Sky would grin, these ODST had impressed him so far, and he guessed they would keep doing that. Sky would put both his magnums away before dogging another shot, a concussion shot. Sky would draw his sniper and over his comm he would say "Watch and learn". They were the last words before sky would quickly level the gun and fire two clean shots, one that went through the head one that slammed into its chest. Sky would put his gun away before walking ahead.

As sky walked forward he would see a bridge. Although he had never seen a place like this he had seen a bridge like this. Though sky was facinated by it, he was more concerned, and surprised, about what he could see happening on the other side. Sky would see a ODST, a female, get picked up and stabbed by a energy sword. Sky would see the ODST rush in shooting as that happened though he knew better. Something was wrong about all this. As the elite fled the scene sky would notice a lot of dead bodies on the ground, elite bodies though not one ODST body, except for that girl. Sky would wait back, walking slowly. Still not trusting this situation.

The ODST's ran forwards, after firing at the Elite that had killed their fellow ODST. They failed, but all 6 of them surrounded the ODST that had been stabbed. They had assumed the Spartan had them covered, but they weren't protected, or prepared for what happened next.

Midnight was lying on the ground, curled up to hide that she actually had no energy blade woulds. As the other ODST's got close to her, she tensed. And when they checked her wounds, she was the first to act.

She spun her body around, and the blade in her hand went straight into the throat of the lead ODST, blood pouring from his uniform as he gasped for air, dropping his weapons and onto his knees, unable to fight anymore. Midnight eyed the next closest, and threw the blade at him. It went straight into, and through, his visor.

That's when she turned her attention so the remaining 4 near her. They tried to punch her, but Midnight was too fast. She ducked, and pared each attack they made. Each of them calling her a traitor as she did so. But that didn't stop her, and she managed to catch one of them. She grabbed his hand, deflecting his blow and twisting his arm behind him, and he acted like a meta-shield for the next ODST who was using a blade, stabbing his own ally.

Discarding the body, Midnight looked at the remaining 3 ODST's going against her. She reached into her pocket, pulling out her pistol and shooting the first one in the face. However, that weapon was quickly hit out of her hands as she remained her fist-fight with the other two ODST's. She kicked them both back and reached into her back-pocket. She pulled out a mini-staff, which pulsated with electricity. She swung at the ODST, shocking him and making him jolt back from the pain. She swung again, and caught him again, and kicked his ally away. She knew CQB better than any ODST, and was proving it. He took a swing at her face, which she back flipped to avoid it, swinging her electro-staff at his face, knocking his helmet off. She then hit him across the face, and burnt his face. She repeated this until he stopped fighting back, and eventually died.

That's when she turned back to the final ODST, who held his pistol out at her. He fired at her, and the bullet went straight through her helmet. Midnight started to fall backwards, until her 'body' started flickering, and suddenly, her 'body' vanished. Her Hologram disappeared and she was actually kneeling under the bullet. She dived forwards, hitting him many times. But, he was quicker than her. She jammed her staff into his face, killing him, right as he swung at her face. His blade hit her helmet, damaging it.

She hopped backwards, reaching up and taking her helmet off. She threw it onto the ground, her long blue hair flowing out from it, and pulled her knife out of the ODST. She turned and spotted the Spartan who was watching. She reached into her armor, and pulled out her CAWS Shotgun, pumping it once to load a round into it. She watched him with her face, her helmet on the ground nexto to her feet.

"Well, What do we have here? You can't say you didn't see this one coming Spartan, can ya? But, this leaves just you, and me. Is something the matter? Cat got your tongue? Nothing to say?" Midnight kept her Shotgun in her right hand, but picked up her SMG with her left hand and pointed it at the Spartan. She needed more range, and her SMG would give it to her.

Sky would watch as the ODST who got stabbed fought off all six ODST with ease. He could already tell that she was a good fighter, he had known that from when he had fought that phantom, but now that he saw her in CQC he saw just how brutal she actually was. Sky was wondering, how can any lone soldier take out a full team of ODST even if she had ODST training. Sky knew one who was able to do that with ease, though he knew that was impossible. She had died at the hand of the flood. Sky would see the leader go down first from a brutal knife to the neck which caused him to die a instant death. One by one the ODST's fell, non of them getting a good hit until sky saw the bullet go straight through the head. As that happened sky knew something was up. The moment the bullet would hit a sound should have been heard, and it would not have hit the wall behind... Hologram Sky would think before his suspicions were proved.

Sky would then see the last one manage to damage the girls helmet though he still went down. That was when sky would gasp under his helmet. He would see a face he had seen die. A face he had not seen in years. "Your dead" Sky would say before he heard her taunting him.

"Well, What do we have here? You can't say you didn't see this one coming Spartan, can ya? But, this leaves just you, and me. Is something the matter? Cat got your tongue? Nothing to say?"

Sky would stand strong, he could see that she had both a shotgun and a sub machine gun, both of which were ODST standard. He also knew that his best advantage in this fight would be his speed and agility, fire power wont do much. Sky would see that she was waiting for him to get in close so that she could pump him pull of lead, and he knew that although he was shielded, a shotgun would pierce them with ease. Sky would look at his surroundings, they were in a open area. He would smile, having developed a way to stay alive here.

"Why are you doing this? I thought i knew you" Sky would say loud enough for midnight to hear clearly. As sky said that he would put his left hand on his left magnum and his right hand on his right magnum. In this fight he knew that they would be his key to winning this, though sky had another thought that was conflicting with his resolve. He had known this girl, she was a dear friend to him back when they fought side by side. Seeing her alive made a burdon leave sky though it returned quickly. She was no longer on his side, she had turned.

Sky would keep both his hands on his guns waitign for her to respond. He did not plan to start this fight, he did not want to kill her. If he could just get in close and put her in a position he could take her captive, then maybe he would be able to turn her back. Sky would sigh, knowing that if he could not do that. He would have to end her. He would have to kill Midnight.

Midnight saw the Spartan place his pistols in his hand, or at least, rest his hands over them, but it paused. Why, did it want to start chatting perhaps?

That's when it spoke, saying it knew her?! That wasn't possible. Surely? She was classifed as dead to the UNSC, and the only people that her well enough was her old team, who were ODST's, not Spartans. So how did this person know it was her? That was impossible surely. It was a series of impossible events that she was following. Still, it was her against a Spartan. And time she proved they were superior.

She slide her shotgun onto her back, and pulled out another SMG, and started spraying. Most her shots were on point, all headed towards the Spartan. She needed to make him either take cover, or get close. If he got close, he'd end up in a fist-fight, and that was something Midnight knew she was hard to best. The other option is a fire-fight, but she'd rather up close and personal. After all, that's how she loved to fight.

She kept her spraying up, hoping that the Spartan got nice and close, before she killed it"

As the odst started trying to shoot at sky time would slow as sky analized the situation. He saw her put the shotgun on her back, though he knew that was probably jsut a trick to make him think that CQC was a good idea, which he did not think it was. He knew Midnight, and if this was indeed her that was the last place he would want to be right now. Sky would see that she was spraying in hopes of hittign him, meaning she might be trying to trick him with something. Time would resume to normal speed as the first bullets went straight past sky.

Sky would stand there for four seconds as the shots all went past him. He knew that a bullet would not take him out in one shot, though he also knew that he would need to avoid it anyway. Sky would notice two shots going in a direct course for his chest, which he took as his moment to act. He would jump, doing a clean spin and landing with a thud as his heavy armor hit the ground feet first. Sky would draw both his magnums and fire three shots from each at the girl. Sky had aimed two shots, one from each, at her legs in hopes of hindering her though also as a distraction. Sky counted on her to doge and get hit by the other two bullets that were going to miss if she stayed still. Sky would then reload as he used evade to doge a few incoming bullets.

Midnight kept her fire at the Spartan, trying to goat him into coming close. She knew Spartans always claimed to be better, plus his shield wouldn't last long against her blade. She reloaded one of her SMG's, while firing the other, and repeated this action. That's when she saw him fire back. She could see the bullets headed straight for her, and took a simple action. She almost skipped, to the left, meaning that she should have been fine.

If Sky hadn't antisipated it. One of the shots grazed her leg, getting a groan from her. She hadn't seen it coming, and kept firing her SMG's regardless. He'd expected her to dodge it! She kept her fire up, but backed up slightly, still trying to goat them into coming nice and close. Even with that injury, she should be able to out-duel them. After all, it hadn't had what she did, and that was the best UNSC CQB combat training you could get. That, mixed with years of experience meant she could duel Elites, and had in the past. What was a Spartan before all of that knowledge?

Sky would see more shots being fired as well as her reloading her guns. Sky would use this moment in the decrease in fire to take four steps forwards. Sky would see one bullet hit the metal floor but it would bounce up. Sky would use his evade to roll under the bullet, which put him in closer range to the ODST. Sky would stay where he was. He was still a fair distance from the ODST though he was closer then he wanted to be. Thats when sky would see the bullet graze her leg.

Sky would raise both his magnums. He still did not want to kill her, but right now she was not giving him much choice. Sky would throw the thought off as he fired four shots from each gun, all on a direct course to hit his foe in the arms. The moment sky's bullets had left the gun time would slow as sky aimed another four shots from each gun. These were aimed at the shotgun on her back, if he could remove that his chances for disarming her would be that much easier. The moment the next four shots left the clip time would resume as sky reloaded both guns. Sky would hold both guns ready, still not shooting back. He was NOT goign to kill her, no matter how much he knwe he needed too.

Midnight kept her SMG's blazing, firing at him as much as she could, without much success. It came clear to Midnight that he wasn't getting close anytime soon, which meant she would have to fix that. When he got close, she knew it was time to act. Right as he fired shots at her.

She discarded her SMG's that instant, throwing them on the ground and running forwards. She jumped forwards, preforming a front-flip and dodge the first barrage of bullets. The second however, was another story. Another bullet grazed her shoulder, catching another groan from her. But now she was in her range, but didn't reach for her showgun, yet. Instead, she grabbed her daggers, and threw both of them at him. Once that was thrown, she grabbed another blade, a machete this time. She took a swing at him, trying hard to hit him.

Sky would doge every shot with ease, he could tell her leg injury was not affecting her that bad though he did notice a slight difference in her accuracy. Sky would stay still as she dogged his first shots, they all went straight under her. Sky was impressed, doing a flip in armor was not easy for anyone, though then again, this was not just any normal ODST. this was Midnight.

Sky would see her drop both her SMG's. Sky knew what that meant. Sky would slide both his magnums into their respective hip holsters as he saw her running towards him. Sky would see her draw two knives. Sky would wonder for a second what she was doing before he saw her arm throw them at him with pinpoint accuracy. Time would slow down yet again as sky used his evade to flip. He would pick both the knives out of the air while he was doing this. As he landed sky would see Midnight swing at him with a machete. Sky would quickly raise both of the knives to block, doing it successfully though the impact sent the knives out of his hands.

Sky would draw the two knives that he had on his chest. He held one with the blade pointing behind him and the other pointing towards midnight. Sky would rush in, swinging a low shot though it was all a trick, his true attack would be the other knife which was thrown at her arm. Sky was hoping that she would block the leg one and that the thrown one would hit its target, giving sky a a bigger advantage.
