After the battle Specmarines division one alpha platoon was finally away from the front. Greg sat next to the marine fresh from boot. He had just finished telling him about why he had joined and what had happened since; just as he had asked."you know thats the first time anyones ever asked." The Sam shrugged "Well I was curious" he said "and you were closest. Plus theres just somthing about you that I just had to ask about." He smiled and looked around his remaining childhood frind was still on patrol, and even worse was the fact that beer wasnt allowed this close to the front.
He was about to turn back but he saw something or rather someone that caught his eye. Sam saw this and said "Ya same thing I did she came in from boot but she was in a diffrent program." He paused and said "Sniping." "Well she can watch my back no prob." They were both laughing and swappen jokes and insults till David came back. "Hey man your up in a couple of hours but till then whats TO FUCKING EAT THIS SHIT SUCKS." Greg answered "Well I hear that Freddy has some grunts hed grillin but the medic shut that idea down when some methane in its lungs caughtand it whent boom." Then they were cracking up and laughing like maniacs while making some rather insulting comments about the navy.

Up in orbit fleet was fighting for their lives as cruisers and frigates as well as the only dreadnaught ship made by the UNSC faced off with the covenant fleet. Two of the new devastator class deystroyers using captured covenant slip space engines to plot a pinpoint jump next to the juggernaught."Ready the mac rounds and charg the plasma turret" the ship supported upgraded macs and a plasma turret but still no shields. The Dreadnaut had five macs a specialized generator for every three each one was upgraded and could fire three full power shots and four reduced but it would be much weaker one fired backwords. Each of its massive main engines required half the energy createdby th generator supplying engine power. It also had some very thick skin. "Enemy deystroyer turning to engage."The captain replied "two percent increase and weapons find a firing solution for the macs the plasma already has one fire as she bears." As they complied a beam played across the enemy shields as the macs found firing solutions on one of the other ships, a carrier. Three shot rang from each gun as a sizable amount of reinforcements apeared. Fear settled in the fleet as they turned red.

"Launch all seraphs and load phatoms take over Honem'honorme I'm going down" the elite with a silverish ring around its right eye; which had started to appear after he had killed the infidels father and had been hunting him ever since"My kill awaits on the surface."

The marines were to rendezveus with the marines of beta platoon. Many were the geeks and freaks of the marines field, that may explain why they got all the toys. Then they would attack the covenant front with beta. His heart leapt in joy as he heard he and his friends which were now Sam and David would protect the snipers including her. He pretended to gripe as the captain passed through the assignments.

They were in position he was prone next to the snipers his ar aimed at the acess way as David loaded his modified br55 he had upped the caliber and scope had added at least 18 rounds to the magazine and had added semi and full auto. He watched as the platoon raced forwardand as a sqaudron of phantoms swooped in and raked fire across the exposed men then they in turned were fired upon by a large amount of short sword medium fighters. Unfortunatley they had dropped their load closer to where the were hiding. Fire the raged around as snipers fired their loud weapons at the covenant. Then shotty fire as Sam burst in firing down the stairwell. Laughable he thought as he ran up and fired an incindiary gernade at the advancing covenant forces then opened up in earnest. Jakals wre dead and the grunts dienig as the elites raced up the stairwell. He eptied the extended clip as what he thought to be the last died inches from him. He felt the blood on his suit from the holes in the last elite and heard David taking out the covenant in with his br55 of coarse many more fell to the snipers. He and as he was reloading he felt a feeling in his gut that told him to turn. He turned and saw and elite charging up the stairs he had cleared the last as Greg dropped his weapon and came up with his straight backed crystal knife and iyts duplicate made of the same material. He saw the elites weapond had been dystroyed by the gernade,but it pulled out a knife made of a familiar looking substances crystal but not like the one he was holding. He thrust with his right hand as the memories came pouring out it was from his colony. His outher hand moved to block the attempt to dishand him as he withdrew the knife. It hadnt worked there wasnt a hole in the elites belly. He then flipped the left hand blade across his hand into a reverse grip and vaugley heard his friends telling him to move. He ignored them and went for a slash across the arm failed and feignted for the enemies head dropped sweeped its leg and put the right knife in its arm bewtween the bones and leveraged cracking both bones. Its knife arm however remianed free as it tried to stabbe his head. He shifted and used his other knife to slide it into the ground where it stuck as blood fell onto his face. his knife drained its throat as it tried to scream. "fuck you and your damn covenant"he said as he withdrew the knife. He turned to see everyone staring when he realized he was covered in purplish blood. He looked again at the corpse and saw crises in its pouch. Once again e knew that they hadnt glassed his home but were taking its rescources draining it dry.
