0513 hour/ 1123 km from Alpha base

Great me and my squad was sent here to protect the Alpha base on the colony Valhalla but only our only ride got shot down and now we are under attack.
"Contact enemy contact!" I yelled.
I knew I should have taken that job offer to become a doctor but no I just had to join the UNSC forces he said to himself. The ten Grunts jumped in front of him and he shot them down.
"I need support over here!" I yelled.
"Coming!" said a group of marines.
"Lieutenant there is a grunt behind you!" yelled a marine
Then with full momentum of his battle rifle I crushed the grunts skull.
"We are here!" yelled the Sergeant.
"Get down! Covenant dropship on approach!" I yelled.
All dropped but a marine who unfortunately didn't here and was shot to death by the shade on the bottom of the dropship.

Then eight elites jumped out of the dropship, two we're immediately killed by snipers. The other six charged the Marines and four were shot to death the other two charges the Sergeant and me. One was killed by the Sergeant immediately and the Other one was killed at close range.
"That was to close fall back! Into the canyon!" ordered the sergeant.
They went to the canyon to find out they were boxed in.
"Let me see that rocket launcher marine!" he said "Oh and go behind those boulders."
Then he fired and blew the canyon wall to show a new scorpion tank.
Then the sergeant wondered how it got in there.
"Just in case any of you are wondering how it got there. I told the UNSC to put it in there just in case of this.
Then the Sergeant went behind the stirring wheel.
"Come on move it get on the tank! Hey lieutenant Kiami you will be in charge of the cannon and machine gun. Lets get moving!"
Then the I jumped behind the gun controls.
They slowly went through the canyon. Can this tank go any slower the sergeant thought? After all it isn't known for its speed. But it is known how it is known for cutting through covenant forces.
"Where exactly are we going to ?" I asked
"We are going to Beta Base," the sergeant answered.
"I thought it was abandoned," said a marine
"It was only but when I was order to take you guys to alpha base I knew there was 80% chance of we going to get shot down. So I asked them the UNSC to put five squads there just in case the alpha base fell or in case we fell." The sergeant answered.
I wondered how he is able to influence so must in the UNSC but I wasn't that suspicious.
"We're here!" a marine yelled.
Then they jumped out of the tank and opened the huge metal gate. They were met by a Marine who took them to the briefing room. Then an Admiral walked in.
"Hello I am Admiral Jack Johnson. I am in charge of this base. So far we can't find the Covenant so I am getting very suspicious in fact they all just went back into their ship and left in a hurry. Their last position before they left was twelve kilometers east of here. SO alpha base wants us to check it out. We will leave in two hours so rest up and get prepared."
I walked outside and went to the cafeteria and ate some bread and then went to the quarters I was assigned and fell immediately to sleep for an hour.
Then I was immediately woke up by a loud noise.
I hurried into the hallway and saw marines rush to the exits.
"Hey you what's happening." I said to a marine.
"We are under attack go to the armory and get a shotgun and a heavy machine gun and met us outside," he said
So I did and went outside and saw that everyone was out there expecting something to come through the gate.
I rushed to the Admiral.
"What's happening" I asked.
"A UNSC ship saw something coming toward us. They said they looked hostile and look somewhat like the covenant."
Then they heard a loud bang against the door.
"I guess that's them," said a marine.
"HELP! I my name is lieutenant Elder from alpha base let me in!"
"Open the gates!"
Behind them was a marine who looked like he ran all the way from alpha base.
"We have to get off this planet...the alpha base was overrun by a parasitic organism. It killed all of them then took over their bodies."
"Okay that's enough everyone there is a fleet of long swords in the back. That's how I got in that's how we are getting out."
I rushed into the Longsword and launched. But unfortunately one or two of those creatures made it over the gate and killed several marines.
"Hey look!" a marine said. I looked out while piloting the ship and saw that the base was over run by the creatures.
"Where are we going to?" asked a marine.
"We are going to the ship Lothor." I answered.
Then a covenant ship came and completly destroyed the planet some how.
