Hello YWS people! I just got finished playing the epic game; Halo Reach. I was looking through our fan-fiction, and noticed we didn't have a lot of Halo stories so, I decided to write one. I hope you enjoy it!
Planet Reach... This was the Spartan homeland, my homeland. It was peaceful... Until the Covenant came...
Thud! I looked next to me to see one of my Spartan teammates. His military tag was C67E4 A.K.A.; Bruce. He looked over at me and nodded his head, then grabbed a grenade from his belt and threw it over the trench we were in. We heard the explosion and was rewarded with a rain of plasma fire that barely missed us.
I poked my head above the trench to see where the enemy was, and saw one of the elites fall ten yards away with a gaping hole through his chest. His allies (grunts) instantly started scrambling for cover, but it was no use. I brought my assault rifle up and fired several shots at the grunts' heads, killing them instantly.
"Good thing I had you covered." came a voice from behind us. Turning around, I saw the second in command of our squad. Her Military Tag was Z7KR32 A.K.A. Zoe.
I nodded my thanks, motioned towards the rendezvous point and started jogging that way. Bruce and Zoe fell alongside me, making quick work of the distance. Right before we arrived, I noticed movement around the rendezvous. I nodded to Zoe who got on one knee, pulled out her sniper rifle, and fired several quick shots.
As she provided covering fire, Bruce and I flanked to the left and started up a cliff that overlooked the rendezvous point. When we got to the top, I threw a grenade down and started raining fire down upon the enemy. Bruce continued around to flank behind them, and pulled out his machine guns when he was in position.
I watched as all of the covenant soldiers fell, one by one from the onslaught. After the last one died, I slid down the side of the cliff and landed in the middle of the rendezvous. Zoe ran towards me shouting something, but I couldn't make it out.
I felt something plunge into my back and rip through my body. Looking down, I saw the tip of a covenant energy sword. A deep voice, almost guttural, whispered in my ear, "Your planet will fall with you demon." Then the elite pulled back his sword and let out a yell of triumph, only to silenced when Zoe shot him in the leg.
The Elite growled and disappeared, using a camouflage device to escape. Zoe came running towards me and took off her helmet, throwing it to the ground. I saw that she had tears streaming down her face.
"It alright," she said, "you're going to be ok."
I laughed and said, "We both know that's a lie." She smiled at me as Bruce knelt beside me. He clasped me on the shoulder and nodded his head, then looked at Zoe and motioned towards the incoming Pelican. She looked at me and smiled a weakly before she pulled out her pistol.
"I'm sorry." she said, and pointed it at my heart. She fired, and the world started turning black.
The last I saw was my teammates getting on the pelican, and as they were lifting off, a covenant ship crashed into it, sending the world into a swirling inferno...
