"Hunter grumbling"
Sargeant-Hey you keep it down in there!
Marine 1-Sir?
-It's that damn hunter again..Agh I say we kill em. Don't see the use of them anyway.
Sir, I was sent down here to report Masterchief is disabled for the time being, you are in charge of battle tactic's from now on.
-Finally I get to do somthing else then babysit.I'll be back in at o'2oo hour's.
While the Sargeant is just turning down the well lite hall's the hunter grumbles
Hunter-Hey....
Ar...are you speaking to me?
"The marine steps closer to the cell peering through the plasmatic bar's, to see what seemed like a hunter's armor scattered about the room."
Wha..where are you in there?
-ARGGHH....
Hello?!? WTF?!?! "The marine turn's around and look's down the hall for any guard personnel."
Hearing small sounding, skitters through the halls.Started to concern and freak the marine, "Im alone guarding a whole hall of up to 12 alien's, with a hunter that is big and practically insane.
Thinking to himself "What the hell is going on"
*Loud Crash against the door behind him*
-AHHHRGHH
"Sound's of siren set's off and the red alarm light's down the hall turn on"
Marine's running through the hall, but not towards the cellar this particular marine was guarding...
The marine was about to radio for help on the nearby intercom until he heard a message over it stating "All armed personnel in 1-A,1-B"
He prep'd his MBA5 Rifle to his shoulder and suited his grenades to easier reaching pocket's.
Then the intercom continued "Cortana's voice echoed through the hall's ignore that order, Everyone report to Cellar room's 4..."The line went dead, and the light's started flickering until a final halt.
Uh...Hello...?
Outside of the heavily fortified base were approx.235 Marine's and only a couple of scorpion tank's that were being deployed from dropship's.
As the sargeant headed up to the battle zone.
He heard men screaming all throughout the field.
As a passenger in the warthog the sargeant was a little edgey because his life was in the hand's of this marine.
Speeding all the way to the scene of blood, he noticed personnel fleeing the base.
Marine1-Wtf is going on there?!
Sargeant- Aghh turn this shit around soldier.
While back at the Cellar the marine was all alone with his flashlight dying out.
"Skitters again"
What the hell man!
"The hunter grunt's a deafining howl and fall's to the ground splurging dark greenish goo from it's mouth,orange and green blood was dropping from his face and body.
What the hell is wrong with you?
-No response
The marine ignoring the hunter was a wrong move.
Kneeling up against the cell door the marine felt somthing touch his neck.So he whipped away from the door with his gun holstered.
Feeling woozy he sat down.
"Styt, the marine was paralyzed with a needle through the back of his neck"
Driving up to the base was sarge.
Alright men ready up.
They entered the base light's on gun's up and semi-crouched the sarge was in front followed by the other two marine's.
-Cortana!Where are my men?
Cortana echoe's through the halls in 4-d was the last life signature but it has silenced since o'1oo hour's.
Alright Let's MOVE we don't have all day you panzie's.
The sarge ran until reading a sign stating 4-d Green, Alright You two stay behind im going in.
Walk down the hall he had previously looked somewhat eerie in the dark.
This shit creep's me out...nah nah IM A ROUGHNECK NOTHEN SCARES ME!
While talking to himself he came upon the marine he left to guard the cell.
Peering into the cell noticing the Hunter was dead said what the hell?
Marine what did you do to this poor fella with a big grin on his face.
Slightly kicking the marine he tipped over bluntly.
Disturbed he jumped backwards and fell onto a satchel of what he thought of as food, squishing whatever was in there, Making a hollow sound yet still gross sounding.
Marine? Marine are you playen with me? "Getting closer to the marine face to face now, noticing the marine's eyes had gone pure white with his jaw hanging.
The sargeant had an idea of what happened but wasn't sure still he understood he must leave before whatever happened to him doesnt happen to me.
He picked his gun back up where he accidentally fell and dropped it. Still with his back turned the marine stood up and grabbed the back of the sargeant and bite his neck, the sarge yelled for help and quickly turned his gun opposite of which he faced and shot a good 13 rounds into the marine all entered the stomache.
Holding his neck the marine's had arrived and immediatley knew what had happened.
Bandaging the neck of the sarge the marine told him that the BZ is a losing fight all hand's are retreating to the base.
Sarge-Ugh I didn't know the hunter was apart of the flood.
-Yeah I never would have guessed so.
Alright Collar up and let's MOVE MOVE MOVE.
Back at the retreating battle zone the sarge drove up only to see carnage and wreckage.
The 235 marine's were for the most part slaughtered one marine was without his leg's and half a head with blood still gushing out out of his punctured eyeball.
Parking near the Main base door sarge entered in a code 2749 and some unheard of digit's into the code pad.
The door had a good time opening up due to the Fragment grenades thrown by the marine's. Opening up only enough for 1 marine to barely fight through.
Sarge:Hmmm....
Marine:Hmmm..
Marine:Hmmm...
Sarge:"WHAT THEY HELL ARE WE HMMEN ABOUT GET YOUR ASSES OVER THERE!"
The two marines struggled opening the door tugging and pulling at it.
Marine-Screw this..
Sarge -Boy, get your ass back over there and get in.
The sarge in a fit of rage grabbed him by his armor collar and shoved the marine through the crack in the door almost crushing the marine's helmet and skull, his eyeballs fell out of their sockets hanging with blood dripping out of them.There lay his body dangling from the door.
Marine-YOUR CRAZY WHAT ARE YOU DOING!??!
Shutup boy before the same happen's to you!
The marine quickly opened the door as to avoid the fate of his comrade. Closing the door after he entered he watched his comrade's skull get crushed again and sealed off.
The marine followed the sargeant from a distance to be sure he doesn't lose it again. Inside the base's frontier seemed perfectly fine there was men walking around as if there was no battle.
They both continued down the hall observing what was going on they saw a Person who had just been in a incident run out of a room grumbling he was going to get someone, he appeared as if he was a patient except with a piece of metal sticking out of his arm covered in blood.
That guy looked queer stated the sarge hysterically.
Passing several room's some with blood engulfed in them along with dead securital bodies.
Until finally reaching the meeting room where sat MasterChief disabled but still alive and listening.
The two soldier's took a seat and explained what had happened.
We have discovered something we havent known anything about. The hunter's are flood form's.
Halo engineer-How did you come to that conclusion?
Well the covenant have brute's am I right?
Yes.
Well the covenant first sent brutes down to halo but the flood infested them and took them as hunter's so the covenant withdrew brute's for a while and did some testing with the hunter's as how to control such powerful foe's.
So they came up with A DNA that controls them it's orange.
I see and how did you come to try and find out if their flood?
Well I looked at the dead hunter in the cell section 4-d and there was flood blood everywhere along with the Controlling Orange blood..And the fact when you shoot him he spit's out both green and orange blood.Also the marine was killed by the smallest of the flood forms a skitter it had made him into the 2nd form of flood a human flood.Then the bastard bite me...Which in turn I have to kill you all.
The sarge stood up and elbowed the marine next to him gashing in his face the marine died instantly. Pulling out a handgun shot the halo engineer in the side make a perfect hole through his body, the engineer fell to his knee's.
Another marine rushed into the room and had gotten hit in the head by the sarge throwing the handgun at him.
The marine started tripping and kneeled up against the wall pulled his Assault Rifle out slowly raised it, and it was taken from him while at the same time a handgun came to the back of his neck and was forced forward.
Sarge-Who the hell are you Holding his Assualt Rifle.
?????-Im the one to kill MasterChief.
Well isn't that to damn bad you ain't gonna get to.
Do you think you can stop me?
The sarge noticed the piece of metal sticking out of the persons arm and grinned.
Spartan?
Not quit
Well im tired of you anyway, he shot and hit the metal piece on the guy's arm ripping it out all the way to his fingertip causing him to pull the trigger shooting the sarge in his arm.
sarge-AGGH you shot me!
?????-You shot me.
Both unable to fight with gun's throw their gun's down.
?? kill's the marine by snapping his neck and twisting his head off.
The sarge grew another flood arm with red hair at the end of it, while the ??? ripped out the rest of the metal in his arm and used it as a weapon.
???- Heh sharp but dangerous.
sarge-HAIRY BUT I CAN STILL WHOOP YOUR ASS!
While this fight was proceeding the Frontier Door was demolished by a covenant cannon and flood proceeded inside.
Rushing the halls slaughtering men.Sucking on intestines of the enemy's they faced.
Sarge-Hmm we don't have mu...
The flood had reached the meeting room.
Sarge-heh boy your dead!
Somthing small entered the room and landed on top of the table spinning fairly fast in circles and finally came to a stop.
"Click"
The sarge was blasted towards the wall and the SpartanI was devoured by the flood but still gave them a tremendous fight before being eatin alive.
MasterChief-What the hell was that?
He walked over to the defaced sargeant and smacked him, shortly after that continued on to the spartanI and said I thought I killed you already.
Taking the SpartanI's gun headed out the back to a warthog that waited on him.
He drove off back to the pillar of march and reported all he had seen.
But in the end the Halo Storyboard krew wasnt told by the halo engineer about some part's left out.
