"Team Slayer"

Spartan-314, code-named Uberninja for his mastery of sneakiness, long-range combat and the plasma sword, surveyed the field, Coagulation. As pink team leader, it was his duty to protect his squad while annihilating the green team. His team stood behind him. His second-in-command, Spartan-1815 (code-named Skipper), stood by his side. His team, Spartans -912, -007, -353, -110, -321 and -207; code-named Polarbear, KRACKA, When Cowz Attack, MC_Elite, Spec. Op. Elite (oddly enough), and Get it Off!, respectively.
The green team was planning out their battle strategy in the other base. The team leader and strategist, The Comet, Spartan-1337, had a map sprawled out on the floor. "Here's the plan. Grunty Giant-1217, you get in our Wraith and blow the hell out of their base. Big Cortana, drive the warthog over there, with Hydra-106 in the gunner."
"Dammit, the old Blood Gulch was better. Let's go back in time!" blurted out Big Cortana.
"Quit yer bitching, Cortana! We can't go back in time and that's final! Why the hell do you keep talking about that?" said the Comet. "Now then, back to the plan. Spartan-067, you keep 'em busy from the middle of the map. Roadkill-2556, you sneak up to the base and see if you can find any plans, then report back."
"Hey, I'm not Sam Fisher! Give me a break, will ya?"
"If you can't be sneaky, then what the hell are you doing on my team? Anyway, Noob Killer-404, get in the Gauss 'Hog and see how bad you can mess 'em up. Piemaster Chief-423, you get in the gunner. I'll get in the Banshee and do a strafing run. That should mess them up a bit."
Finally, the match began.
Uberninja rushed to the top of the base, grabbed a sniper rifle, and fled to the caves. Poking his head out of the opening, he looked through the scope. His teammate, Get it Off!, already had a plasma grenade on his face. Sizzling, he turned away as it exploded. Looking back, he saw three corpses on the field. Two of them were green.
Good, he thought, At least he took some of them with him. His HUD showed them as Get it Off!, Roadkill, and Piemaster Chief.
Through the scope of the sleek matte black sniper rifle, he saw his teammates KRACKA and Polarbear hiding in the shadows. Their emblems glowed in his display. His motion tracker showed Noob Killer running through the middle.
He fired.
Big Cortana heard the crack of a sniper rifle and saw the Gauss 'Hog in front of him barrel out of control as Noob's brains exploded through the back of his skull. He spotted Spec. Ops. Elite a little off to the left of him, only holding a magnum. He jammed down on the accelerator as a rocket hit him from the side.
"Hell yes! Got the bastard!" screamed When Cowz Attack.
Meanwhile, the Comet was flying around in the Banshee. He positioned himself in front of MC_Elite's warthog and dropped out. He landed on the hood, creating a rather large dent, as he grabbed MC_Elite by the helmet and yanked him out. MC had other plans, however, and got right back in. He gunned the 'Hog and the sickening thud could be heard on the other side of the map.
Green team only had two people left. Pink team had 7. The whump of a rocket leaving the tube of a SPNKr echoed through the gulch as a locked rocket impacted with MC's warthog, totaling it. Just then, another rocket, coming from the opposite direction, smacked into the wall next to KRACKA and Polarbear. The next was right on target.
Uberninja caught Hydra on his scope and fired. A miss. He fired again. Another miss. "Slippery little weiner," he muttered under his breath as he slapped another magazine into the sniper rifle. The next bullet was the last as blood splattered the wall behind Hydra.
He tossed the sniper rifle aside and activated his energy sword. "It's time for some close-up fighting" He said, noticing a red blob in the cave with him on his motion tracker. The harsh glow of a sword emanated from the shadows behind him. He whirled around, striking blades with Grunty Giant. Parrying and thrusting, the sword battle echoed through the cavern. SPARTAN-314 thrusted his sword and it pentrated through Grunty Giant, sticking out the other side. There was no blood, as the intense heat from the blade cauterized the wound.

*GAME OVER*
*PINK TEAM WINS*
