10 years after the end of the invasion of earth Spartans were the bulk of the human forces and had turned the tide of the war. After many defeats the covenant retreated into space back to their home world. The master chief is now the grand general of the armies of Earth and now gets ready for the fight of their lives as after many campaigns have finally found the covenant home world.

The time was now and the fleet of Earth had been rebuilt and was ready to fight the covenant again. The fleet was now already moving towards the Covenant home world and would get there in 1 hour. The master chief addressed his men in a massive hall on a ship.

"Men this is it we will finish what they started 15 years ago, we will show them that we will not be wiped out without a fight we will not run, we are going to live on.

And finally they reached the covenant home world
"This is the captain all army personnel get to loading stations" And so the men moved into their drop ships and got ready. "Alright men we are going in with the first wave you smash the entire area you kill anything that isn't human, AM I RIGHT MARINES"
"SIR YES SIR"

Meanwhile on the bridge things were a little worst.
"Captain we are taking heavy fire there firing from the planet"
"Launch the fighters tell the landing crews to take out those guns"
"Yes sir"

The landing craft were approaching the surface.
"Drop ship 2 did you see banshees"
"Negative drop ship 5 I don't see any"
"Nooooo this is drop ship 7 going down"
"Did you see that"?

The landing craft touched down.
"Go go go act like you got a purpose marines"
"1st platoon left flank"
They went up the rocky hillside when they saw the first covenant they did not see the marines it was a anti ship gun firing at the ships above.
"OK men fleet has given us orders to take out any anti-ship guns we find, Lieutenant Jenkins take you squad to the right of the complex and we will create a diversion get inside and take out all enemy's"
"YES SIR"
"OK MOVE OUT"
So the marines moved out as Jenkins approached the complex the Major had opened fire on the complex.
Jenkins got inside the complex undetected but it didn't stay that way him and his men were pinned down behind some random workstations.
"Lieutenant what the hell should we do"
"GRENADE" it went off killing Jenkins and 2 other men
"Screw this ill show these slit face squid heads something"
With that he unleashed the biggest load of fire possible he went through 5 clips before he had finished and said
"I think were done" this marine was called private Steele.
They took out the gun and moved on
"What happened to Jenkins private?" said the Major
"He was killed sir, grenade"
" OK men heres the deal we are falling behind we are going to link up with the 43rd tank armoured division we will meet them at point Bravo 22 just as planned OK lets move out"

So the whole division moved out the next morning, all the men felt weird about the alien planet it was mostly desert and rocky. They reached point Bravo 22 but the tank division was not there.
The major picked up his radio "this is 65th marine division we are at point Bravo 22 does anyone read"
"Roger that this is the 43rd we are under heavy fire and will be there shortly"
"Roger that, Lieutenant Steele get over here"
"Yes sir"
"OK I want defensive positions set up I think the covenant might attack us here"
"Roger that sir"

15 minutes later the major was getting impatient but that wouldn't matter.
"COVENANT COVENANT" shouted a marine
All the marines opened fire on the advancing covenant.
"Major we cant hold them theres to many"
"WE will hold them just keep firing those goddam rifles"

"WAAAHHHOOOOOOO" 5 Warthogs came over the hill along with 10 tanks.
"Tanks lay down a base of fire" The tanks opened fire one the covenant as the Warthogs sailed through the amassed crowd of covenant like a boat sailing across the sea.
"Major we got to you as soon as we could" said the tank commander
"No worries colonel just try to be on time next time"

So all the marines and vehicles went to the newly formed command base where they were given there next task.
