Once the pillar left orbit I was alone. Except for the covenant that still swarmed Reach. If I was going to die. I was going to die fighting. I stood alone on a raised platform, stranded. Phantoms started towards my position and I geared up for the fight. Could I survive? No. There was no way I could. The Covenant decided long ago to take Reach and no single man- or Spartan- could stop them. I fought for so long. I fought as hard as I could and gave Reach my all to het to this point.
I will fight, if I must but I owe Reach nothing. I'd hope my efforts will live on in the annals of history. I'd hope humanity would sing my praises for centuries to come. I hope my daughter will see me as a hero and not someone who abandoned her. I will be the Lone Wolf and fight for all I can but I know that this is a battle I cannot and will not win. It was time to say goodbye. If I could take out a few dozen Covenant than I've made some sort of difference in some way. I was running out of ammo. I lobbed grenades in every which direction. I grabbed two energy swords and continued my assault.
My visor had begun to crack and made it hard to see. I pulled it off and felt blood and tears run down my face. I had taken heavy damage and it was likely fatal. I was lying on the ground. My rifle just inches away. I grabbed it and made a final desperate stand against the Covenant that were surrounding me. A Sangheili Ultra charged at me firing a plasma rifle. With a few shots to the head it was dead. A General attacked me from behind with an energy sword. I knocked it to the ground and killed it with my pistol. In the distance another soldier hit me with a barrage of plasma fire.
My armor was damaged beyond repair and I was bleeding profusely. I stayed on my feet and took out the soldier. I took out a Sangheili Minor and Major before an Ultra knocked me to the ground. It held an energy sword to my throat trying to kill but with the strength I had left I kicked it off, only delaying inevitable. Another Zealot appeared with an energy sword and prepared to kill me. I knocked the sword out of his hand. The previous Ultra, now wielding an energy dagger, pounced on me again stabbing me in the shoulder. I cried out in pain. I managed to elbow him in the jaw somehow killing him. Another Ultra drew it dagger and stabbed me in the chest, landing the killing blow.
"MicKenna.... I'm sorry....." I whispered, finally giving in to that blissful darkness
