I looked around. I was glad to see everyone again, especially being with Riley again. And the 'Gunny' with us too. I saw a Black Spec-Ops Grunt that I remembered from Delta Halo. "Vector" that I called him as. He rather stay with the Elites than the Brutes. I remembered him saying about he saw his Grunt Buddies were eaten alive by the Brutes because they're canivores. So sad to hear that about him.

I turned my head to JC & his Team called "Team Foxtrot". They're happy to do this one last time before they depart from each other again. Then I turned to Scarface & his Elites along with Noreh & James. Scarface that I knew been a Loyalist since the Covenant Civil Wa broke out. Noreh on the other hand decided to be a Covenant Heretic rather be slained by the Brutes.

And there was James Frazier. Strangely I think I remembered him back on that Epsilon Halo that were on. Learning about Supreme Commander Harold B. Tanner's Plan of wiping out all of the UNSC in a year calling it the "Blitzkrieg Year War". When I think of it, I remembered him somehow. I dunno how, but seems like we do know each other.

I later looked at my girlfriend that I held my hand to, Mei-Ling I. Matsumoto. She's the only girl for me. I remembered what I said to her, "I'll always be your Personal Guardian Angel, Mei-Ling. And that's a Promise." But we broke that promise early September 19, 2552 in Helix City of Epsilon Halo.

We then proceeded into each & every room there is. Doing a sweep around the Ship until the last room which was the Command Bridge. This was the Battle of all battles on this ship so far. The Command Bridge was so huge that I thought to be as the Prophet's Throne Room, but it wasn't.

4-5 Brute Chieftains stands at the Bridge, 4 wielding FRGs & one holding a Grav Hammer. 24-36 Brute Captains, Majors, & Minors wielding every Covenant Arsenals known in the UNSC database. 24 Grunts & Jackals Mixed up & paired together. And 5 Pairs of Hunters stands in front of them all. And we got a Hand full of Elites & Marines. Outnumbered, but never outgunned...

Fraizer: Oh shoot. Anyone got a plan?

Commander Thomas: We should use ordinance on the Hunters and save our ammo for the Brutes, Jackals and Grunts.

Noreh: Then I suggest that we start, we've been spotted.

A cry of attention goes out from one Jiralhanae Major, and soon plasma and spiker rounds start to fly in the way of everyone. 'Scarface' gets his warriors to position ammo cases and deployable covers as a defence against the incoming firepower.

Whenever I saw how many Brutes were on the Command Bridge, I felt a rush of adrenaline surge through me, Im not sure if it was because I was afraid or because I was excited, either way it felt good. I looked over to Lt. Hunter, "Good luck sir, and I will talk to you at the end of all this." Suddenly, fire came from our forward and we had to get down. I fell to to my stomach, onto the prone position, and crawled my way to the edge of our cover.

I leveled my rifle and began to fire three-round bursts at a small group of Grunts wielding plasma pistols. I aimed for the head of one that was opening fire onto our cover and then I pulled the trigger, light-blue blood went out the back of its skull, along with my emerging three-round burst. I then did the same to other three Grunts that were there also, but I switched to single shot instead. It took me a matter of 6 seconds to knock them all out. "This is intense." I thought to myself as I took aim on a Brute Major.

The battle went on forever. I saw dozens of Grunts & Jackals blowing up of being in the way of the Chieftains wielding FRGs. A stupid idea at least, I thought. "Riley Support fire on Yuri & Johnson. Now!" I leveled my rifle at a Grunt sneaking up to a Marine hiding & reloading behind a Weapon Module. I shot him dead in the face.

I turned to Jet & Mei-Ling. "You guys follow me. We're flanking those Cheiftains." They nodded & covered my back. "James, Noreh. Take positions on the right flank of the Chieftains. Got it! Scarface, Vector. Cover fire for them." They acknowledged & went off to do their task.

I hurried to the underside of the Bridge along with Jet & Mei-Ling. As the fighting went off with th Brutes & the UNSC Boarder Assault Marines, We got into position. Over on TEAMCOM. "James, Noreh. Ready Grenades on the Brutes above us." I switched over to Riley's, Johnson's, Yuri's Frequencies. "Concentrate fire on the outer defense of the Hunters. Acknowledged?"

Everyone flanking the right Cheifans opened fire and dropped most of the Lesser and Major ones before they could turn on their impenitrable sheilds. Fraizer then took out a couple of Molotov cocktails that he made in Perth while Noreh grabbed four plasma grenades before chucking them at their targets. The Jiralhanae soldiers went up in flames. Stray fire from one of the Lekgolo's Fuel Rod beams blows oppen a maintinance duct.

Fraizer: I'll be back. {Dives into the hole}

Commander Thomas: Come back here you coward!

'Scarface': Leave him. We have to deal with the Prophet's guard first.

I gave a nod toward Lt. Hunter and then I crouched while running over to Yuri's and Johnson's position near the Hunter's area. I dove right between Yuri and Johnson. "Well hey there boys, figured you'd need some help with these Hunter's." As soon as I finished that sentance a fuel rod burst went directly over our cover.

I then put my BR55 over the cover and fired at the Hunter that was directly front. I then pulled it back down, next I pulled out a frag grenade and yelled. "FRAG OUT!!" Next pulled the pin and launched it right at the Hunter's feet that was directly front. I saw the explosion before the Hunter had time to pull up its Fuel Rod Cannon, the frag didn't kill the Hunter but it did wound it. I then ducked behind cover. I looked over to Yuri.

"By the time this battles over, I have a feeling were both gonna be buying each other loads of drinks." I began laughing, despite the battle going on all around us.

Seeing the crippled Lekgolo, Noreh and 'Scarface' fire their guns at the exposed 'neck' area and they manage to kill it. It's partner, enraged by the death of It's mate charges at the Sangheili warriors and the marines. It rams into the supply cases, but everyone behind them (Apart from one marine) dive out of the way. 'Scarface' then draws his Energy Sword and cuts the enormous being in half. Everyone then pushes the ammo crates back up and police the ammo from the dead marine.

I looked over at James' & Noreh's progress. They're good, but James disappeared. Then looking at Riley's. So far, so good. When the fighting went on, I forgot about Spartan-148, Gunny that was with us the whole time. I contacted him.

"Yo Gunns. Can you aim your M6 Laser at that Brute wielding Hammer?" A green light came up on my visor. Good. "And when your done with that, Help out Riley, Johnny, & Yuri. Got that." Anothr green light came up again.

I switched to TEAMCOM. "Riley, Johnson, & Yuri. Cover Gunny. He's taking out that Brute Chieftain that has the Grav Hammer." They acknowledged with a green light on my visor. Then Yuri patched through. "Will do, Comrade. This is for my brother, Mikhail Putin. Good Luck. Out." The transmission cuts off. Then I switched to James frequency. "James. James!? Where are you? Your going AWOL." No answer returned. I cut it and helped out placing the sachel charges under the Command Bridge.

"You guys." I said to Mei-Ling & Jet. "Let's go. I think they can take care of the fight here. Let's move." They nodded & left the battle to help me find Hammer, which is Johnson's Older Brother. I said to myself, "I'm sorry guys. I thought we can finally meet up at the Prophet's Throne Room together." I turned to Mei-Ling & Jet. "You guys. Let's turn off our Radio Comm & go silent."

Jet looked confused. "Why Michael? You think that we're gonna be rogues?" I nodded. "No. It's just that we can get to Hammer & Shogun in time before they get to the Throne Room. I'm sor-" Mei-Ling came & slapped me on the face. And later forgive me of doing that. "How could you? Why are you leaving them? Is it because of...they can take care on their own?"

I nodded & looked saddened. "Yeah. Forgive me guys." She looked at me with a sad expression. And she gave me a hug for forgiveness. "It alright, Mikey." She looked at Jet. "Are you gonna stay with the rest of them or come with us?" He decided to come. He then said, "I'm coming anyways. Besides, I'd rather be with my friends I have left."

I saw someone coming to us. I looked harder & it was Kat. "Wait for me" she exhausted. Jet looked at her & said, "Why you here?" She looked at Jet & kissed him. "I'm coming too. And I really like your friend, not you Mikey." I looked over to Mei-Ling. "Well at least your Friend came too. Or your cousin?" She nodded. "What are you waiting for? Let's go!" Mei-Ling grabbed onto my hand & went off along with Kat & Jet that came with us.

James then crawls out of the maninence hatch he dived down.

Commander Thomas: Where the heck have you been?

Fraizer: It's easier to show you. Enimies in the room...

Fraizer took out a detonator and pressed the button. Explosions engulfed the entire covenant forces on the deck and scattered the rest above. Afterwards, all that's left standing is the control pannel and one cheiftan that managed to withstand the explosion. 'Scarface' corrects that.

Fraizer:...Enimies go kaboom.

Marine: Nice one mate! {Hi-fives James}

'Scarface': We must deal with the survivors.

(((Hey fellas, continue on with the RP, I'll reply when I get a chance)))

We kept walking to the end of the Corridor. I noticed something wrong. What happened to the Crew protecting the ship? They should of noticed us already. I checked the thermal. Nothing on my Visor, no heating signatures. I bet they're in the Bridge or in the Prophet's Throne Room watching the prophet finishing its sermon to the Covenant.

I looked over to Kat. "Why did you come with us? Didn't they noticed you leaving?" She nodded & said, "No. They didn't. And why you ask? It's because that I wanna save my Squad, I mean Mei-Ling & I." Mei-Ling looked amazed to hear that. "That's good, Kat" said Jet grinning. I said, "I guess I'll try to setup your date with Kat here since you tried to set me up with Mei-Ling." We started laughing.

"Hey we got a sentry." said Mei-Ling checking into her GPS Data Pad. "I think it looks friendly." I halted my group. "Be on the alert. We'll figure out soon enough..."

Fraizer (COM): Lt. Hunter? The bridge is secure and mostly blown up. I dived into the vent to set explosives and overload a minor plasma line. Hard to do when you're in a bike helmet. Anyway, all the Foxtrots are dead and the command consle's still standing. Give us a shout if you need any help. {Hangs up}

I had my back turned away from thr bridge, cocking my rifle,and then I heard the explosion that made me turn around. As I turned I saw fire and debris go upwards. The bridge was exploding, and killing everyone on it. I then pulled on a radio someone had on their pack. "Lt. Hunter, what the hell just happened to the bridge? Seems to me our work is done up here, you want me to come to you and Jet? Over."

I began grinning, I always wanted to say "Over" on a radio. I then yelled to the squad leaders of the Marines. "I want a head count, pronto." I then waited for Lt. Hunter to come back over the radio.

(Sorry, its shit guys, I really am, I dunno if im even on the bridge

P lol)

((Just to let you guys know, my character is going silent on the Comm. so you guys won't hear from me again. and for team foxtrot, it was disappointing though i was going to give them a good ending of the fight, but oh wels. I have to rp when i get home from school, right now i'm using the school's computer. so wait for me to reply.))

As the friendly dot shows up on Mei-Ling's GPS Data Pad, a transmission burst though my Comm. Back Pack. I thought I turned it off & realized Mei-Ling had turned it back on, on purpose. I heard they blown up the bridge, but the ship is still intact. It was strange though because if the bridge was out, the ship will fall to Earth filled ground of Floods that we're fighting earlier.

The shadow came up & the figure as well. We we're on guard until that same figure was Johnson C. Miller himself. Jet withdrew his Sniper Rifle & walked up to JC. "I thought you we're at the Bridge with your team?" said Jet. Then Johnson looked surprised at us. "Yes I was. But I decided to evade that fight. I told my team to fake their deaths by acting like going to the Bridge & died from the Explosion of that part & proceed to the Prophet's Throne Room when your step-sister, Mei-Ling." He looked at Mei-Ling. "Linda Polaski." I almost forgot about that Mei-Ling have a step-sister in her family.

"And also, I found out that it wasn't the Bridge. It was a false bridge" he continued. "Lin found out that during the fight. It was really in the Prophet's Throne Room instead. That place we were fighting in was half the size of the Throne Room." We looked amazed on what his team made the discovery. "I already called Commander Thomas to gather up at the Prophet's Throne Room A-SAP."

"Well so much for going to radio silence." I said with disappointment. "So what do you expect us to do now, JC?" He then told us the plan he made up & we listened in to hear what he says.......

((Continue the rp post, I won't be here today or maybe tomorrow. sorry guys.))

((Just to let you know, by 'Foxtrots' I ment Charlie Foxtrots. The UNSC code for enemy contacts))

Noreh: Stupid Human! You could have killed us all!

Fraizer: Woah, calm down mate. I rigeed everything so that it took out the Loyalists. I knew where you gujs were thanks to my portable GPS.

((oh...i didn't know that. i gotta learn all of these military acronyms & slangs. well continue the rp without me, i can't do it now. i'm "limewiring" a song first. DJ Babyboi.))

I watched as the explosion killed all the Loyalists on the bridge. "Yee Haw!" I yelled over all the other cheers. I then called over the radio to see if Lt. Hunter needed me to come link up with them now. "Sir, I can be there if you need me, what do you say? Come or stay with the rest of the Marines?" I waited for a response.

((I've just come back from holiday, sorry for the wait))

Fraizer: {Glances at PDA} Oh (BEEP)! The Brutes found the explosives I planted over that plasma line.

Commander Thomas: Right ladies, let's stop them from disarming those explosives.

Fraizer: No, I'll go alone.

He discards his bike helmet and replaces it with a dead ODST's one before picking up two SPNKr rocket launchers and dual-weilds them without any problems. He then rushes out of the false bridge.

Noreh: There is somthing wrong about that human.
