Spartan318 and Spartan457.....where in a mess. Spartans now being mass-producd since earth is on its last thread. The covenant are still are trying to deestroy the human race......and they are close,very,very close.
"Miranda...How in the heck did we get into this mess"spartan318-jason said. "jason...shut up."spartan457-Miranda said. spartans Jason, miranda and there ruthless group of marines,which consisted of a dozen normal marines,some leathernecks and several ODST's move on to destroy the covenant landing-pad on the inner-colonie"SerathesII".
"Private.mendez...you know what to do"jason said to the ODST. "Got it."replied mendez, as he fired the jackhammer launcher. it hit dead on.....and a series of Banshees blew into flames,but there was many more. more. "Robinson,johnson...move it up!" Miranda barked. Robinson and johnson were the groups head snipers...both leathernecks. the valley filled with the the noise of the cracks of snipers...and two Elites fell. "Nice!" Robinson yelled.
The group moved on. "oh no! Shades..5 of em!" A marine screamed. The shades opened fire and 3 marines fell in a heap of gore."Take cover!" Miranda said and opened fire on the shades with herM5AB-assault rifle,so did jason. And the shades dropped in a matter of seconds.
As they moved into the Large building at the center of the landing-pad they fought numerous enemys such as Elites,grunts and jackals. "Look!" Mendoza barked as a Banshe was about to do a kamikaze maneuver into the structure. "Get down!" jason screamed!. and the Banshee hit its mark as the wall erupted in a sereis of metal fragments....and missed the group by inches,exept fo unlucky Johnson as the nose of the Banshee crushed him like a toothpick."We lost Johnson!" someone screamed but jason was to disoriented from the impact to even understand the message.
Soon after the group took the landing-pad the UNSC finnaly got a important piece of land from the covenant. jason and miranda awaited their next assignment.
Now that jason and Miranda where at Earth because The covenant plotted there second assault on it, it seemed like the human race was doomed."Dont give up hope Miranada,remember there are at least 367 spartans....and that is what everybody thinks will decide this war." "Ya, i guees your right Jason."Miranda replied. they were in a extra armored pelican on there way to Tokyo for what Miranda thought would be a massacre for the humans...jason thought otherwise. ther were going to be at least 216 spartans fighting out of 367..and jason thought that many spartans could take on 1000 Covenant troops. When they landed they checked their weapons,jason had a pair of SMG's and a shotgun while Miranda had a jackhammer rocket launcher and a M6D pistol. They were all set. they came across a heavily guarded encampement with a dozen warthogs and at least 4 Scorpion Main Battle Tanks. the Scorps are what the Covenant feared the most..But the covenant also had thier armament...mortar tanks(wraiths) and assault/scout vehicles(Ghosts).
When the finnaly land at the "HotSpot" they joined the fight. bullets,plasma,energy explosions and rockets raced everywere...the sides were about even. and while jason and Miranda held their own on the ground there was also a fight raging in the air.
Longsword fighters and covenant fighters(sceripths) raced everywhere picking each other apart with bullets,missles and plasma.
Meanwhile, jason and miranda started to move the wounded to the nearest LZ..but then out of mowhere a fuelrod blast nailed the stretchers and the marines...4 lives wasted in a moment. jason looked over his shoulder to find a pair of hunters...he wanted revenge. he drew his shotgun,dodged a melle atack from the beast and blew a dozen holes in the benomths weakspot. the other hunter fought maranda..knocked her down and was about to crush her under its weight until a ODST sniper shot a bullet straight through the beasts weakspot,and it fell hard..real hard. "Miranda you all right!" jason sounded alarmed. "ya,just fine." Mirand said sarcasticcaly...while she was dripping in bright orange blood. jason was relieved.
Miranda thanked the sniper and went oh her way. she was heading to the next HotSpot with jason,they encountered many spartans on the way,none were miraciosly injured. by the time they got to the HotSpot they were dangerously low on ammo so jason swithed his shotgoun for a plasma rifle while miranda switched her launcher for a Needler a very dangerous weapon,espiaccialy at close range. "Miranda those marines need support! lets get that aboned scorpion runnin!" jason barked. Miranda piloted the the giant stell benomoth while jason used the turret. arount the corner they spotted a group of Jackals."bye,bye." jason said sarccasticaly and he fired the shell in the middle of the formation and the jackals came flying apart in a thousand diffrent pieces. "Woo Hoo!"Miranda screamed. on their way they used many shells and dispatched the smaller enemies with the tanks smaller coaxial MM gun.When they reached there final destination the gravity lif below the covenant cruiserb it didnt look pretty. "Holy,Hell."jason said in disbelief. "Ditto."Miranda replied.....
