CHAPTER 1: EARTH
The pelican drop ships flew through the smoke and flames that streaked across the sky. Master Chief, John Spartan -117 sat toward the rear of the ship looking out over the city he was in disbelief that the covenant found earth under his face mask he grit his teeth. The city was burning if they didn't stop the aliens billions would die; the aliens had landed on every continent with one goal the destruction of the human race. Next to John sat a marine in his early 30s his name was Sgt. A.J. Johnson a hardened combat veteran, Johnson sat looking at the marines he was to command most of them weren't older than 17 just kids and the fate of the human race was in their hands he then stood up the tall tough black man looked over his troops once more and said "listen up people those bugs found earth, but we won't give them the chance to take earth" he paused as the ship hit an air pocket causing it to shift "what we will give them is a belly full of lead and a pool of their own blood to drown in! Am I right marines!?"
"SIR YES SIR!" the marines replied they were all ready to take the fight to the enemy
"You bet I am!" Johnson replied
" Here we go!' the pilot said, "LZ looks hot get ready to come out fightin'!"
The Marines jumped out of the pelican ran toward the aliens that were out along the street firing at them the alien blood spraying out of them, the grunts fired plasma pistols and needelers at the marines one marine fell blood coming from his arm, even though he was hurt bad he grit his teeth unholstered a pistol and fired at the grunt that hit him. The alien was hit dead in the face it fell twitched and died. The smoke cleared and bloody bodies came into view John kicked one of the aliens an Elite (a nine foot tall creature it looked a little like a human but it was uglier) in the head to make sure it was dead.
A marine private Juan "Johnny" Mendoza jumped into a warthog the UNSC's primary fighting vehicle "I could use a gunner sir" he said in his slight Spanish accent
Master chief jumped onto the back of the warthog and Sergeant Johnson got into the passenger seat and the 'hog started up and began to move
"Mendoza!" Johnson said, "I need you to go the 7th avenue it's about a 2 miles away I need to see something"
"Roger Sarge" Mendoza replied and they headed there, when they got there A.J. saw a horrible sight his house burning blown to the ground he looked at this and couldn't believe it, but he then heard a faint voice say "A.J." Johnson looked down and in the ruble was his wife
"Oh my god" he said he knelt down and tried to move a large rock but he couldn't, Master Chief Jumped off and helped him. A.J.'s wife had blood all over her Johnson saw this and knew she wouldn't make it she said to him "A.J....I......lov....love...you..."
She died there Johnson stood up clenching his assault rifle with white knuckles
"She'll be okay Sarge" Mendoza said but he knew it wasn't the truth, at this moment A.J. Looked up and saw an Elite looking at him it laughed at A.J.. This made him made and he fired bullets tore thought the air into the elite's arm splattering purple gore on the wall behind the elite, the elite then ran away "YOU BETTER RUN!" A.J. screamed as he still fired "ok he said as he turned to Mendoza and The Master Chief "let's get back to the others"
"You Okay Sarge?" Master Chief said
"Yeah I'm okay" he said, "let's just get outta here" and they all got back into the warthog and drove off toward the landing zone were the other Marines were. At that moment Sergeant A.J.Johnson vowed revenge on the covenant.
Meanwhile on the other side of the city Lieutenant Melissa McKay stood in the back of her drop ship as it descended she was platoon leader of the ODST troopers or Orbital Drop Shock Troops next to the Spartans they were the nest in the UNSC and she knew her soldiers were ready, they had fought the covenant and won before and they were ready to do it again. "Okay lets go guys" she said as they piled out and moved cautiously down the street a young Corporal named Adrian Shepard was a squad leader for the ODSTs
Moved up to an area that used to be a highway over pass he looked down and saw four huge aliens standing around an old building he looked at them out couldn't make them out "hey el-tee!" Shepard said and McKay ran up to him.
"What is it corporal?" McKay said
"Look at this" Shepard said "hey Eddie!" He said, "Get up here with your sniper rifle!"
Then another Marine with a sniper rifle ran up to him and he looked through the scope
"Man" McKay said as she got on her radio "This is fire team Zulu were gonna need backup about a mile away from the city center
"Roger that fire team Zulu we're on our way" the voice of Master Chief's AI Cortana Said. a few minutes later a convoy of warthogs and tanks arrived "Lieutenant McKay?"
Master Chief said, "You dial 911?"
"Yeah thanks for coming guys look at this," she said as she handed Sgt.Johnson a pair of binoculars"
"Whoa" Johnson said "the covies seem to have an interest in that building"
"Yeah Master Chief said, "I'll call the rest of the Spartans and we'll find out what they want in there"
"Okay Chief" McKay said we're ready.
