South had found the Wraith was easy enough, follow the whooshing sound and look for a massive plasma ball. The wraith was damaged, it wasn't hovering, the Covenant set up barricades around it using whatever was to hand, a brute sat on the plasma cannon that was mounted on the roof, another brute was inside; there was another brute outside directing the grunts and jackals around over all around 12 enemies this included 3 brutes 2 of which were in the wraith, 6 grunts and three jackals. South sighed it wasn't the hardest he'd done in his career but was definitely gonna be difficult, his bionic eye registered the wind and distance, four hundred meters and a easterly sea breeze of around one mph. South took his battle rifle off of his back and put the scope to his eye, crouching to allow better stability and more points of contact to take the already dampened recoil, he selected semi automatic and lined up with the brute on the plasma cannon. An eye shot was possible but he wasn't a sniper like North, he lined up the scope with the brutes forehead and his finger curled around the trigger he fired, and then again. The first round entered the brutes nose and went back to where the spine connected with the head the second shot hit the brutes forehead going through the helmet shattering and filling the brain with metal, the brute was out.
Not even a second after this brute was dead South fired at the final brute he fired two rounds again one hitting the aliens shoulder and the second the brutes neck, while it wouldnt kill him itd incapacitate him for a few seconds enough to kill a grunt with one shot to the head. South required the Brutes head and fired two rounds killing him, the grunts ran around scared the jackals attempted to find the shooter and the wraith stopped firing at his colleagues and also tried to find him hopefully enough time for them to move up.
North noted Souths disappearance and noticed how the plasma cannons stopped firing and then a minute later the Wraith stopped firing, The group moved up and found the wraith hunting for a target, none of the covenant noticed the UNSC, an ODST moved up with a rocket launcher and aquired the Wraith and fired one then the other hitting the damaged wraith blowing it up and taking a few of the Covies with it. South knew the wraith was gone and barrelled down on the position as he did he shot any covenant he found until they were dead.
The others caught up with him and they started to take a break, sending a couple of men back to gather any supplies off the dead.
"Your a fucking cunt" Said West to South once they got there
"I did what needed to be done" South replied
"Good job Spartan, well rest here for the night going out at night is deadly normally let alone now" Ordered Marcs taking off his helmet, a weathered face remained under it greying hair in a typical 'Sarge' cut. The other ODSTs followed suit.
