Shock Troopers

Chapter 15: The End - Part 2

(3rd Pov)

As the Attacks started. Rainbow rolled on in like the UNSC and Earths Military. Only lacking the Armoured Convoys both had. This was already one downside to this attack. In small, Guerrilla style tactics, Rainbow and the ODSTs were your best bet. But in open Confrontation with little to no mobile cover against the Defences of a base they thought were little. They needed the Armoured Back-up.

But like usual, they made do. They rushed in and managed to breach the front gates with only a few deaths. The ush towards the Centre was now in their Element. Close quarters and indoors. This is where they thrived.

But by the time the Other two Bases went super-critical, Rainbows objective was still not met. The Banished at this base were smart and had kidnapped a few families to use as Hostages. Stopping Rainbows advance. However, this was not the only Problem.

The Leader of this Banished Invasion, Rystix, had made his presence known again. He had remained hidden for most of the war. Now that he was on the backfoot, He was trying to make the Humans Surrender to save themselves and escape through the Portal.

"We need the UNSC here. We can't move from this Location, or he will execute the Civilians." Jordan said to Eliza as she held her hand up to him, shutting him up as she was talking to someone over the Comms.

"No i understand, What's the plan?" Eliza responded. The person on the other side did not say something Eliza liked.

"What?" Twitch questioned.

"There's more coming here. Those that survived the Other two Bases are retreating here. We will be boxed in soon. And something tells me Rystix knows this." Eliza responded as she sighed.

"The UNSC are heading down. But to get their Main force over here will take time. However, good news, we will be getting Orbital help. Two Spartans and three ODSTs."

"Five Soldiers? Thats all they can spare at this moment?" Jordan raged.

"It's all they can get down here fast enough!" Eliza scorned. "They will be dropping on the other side. We need to create a distraction. Show that we are 'Retreating'. Give them something to focus on whilst their Drop-Pods get in and secure the Civilians. After that we try to mop up what's left in here before their Reinforcements arrive. And turn their own Guns against them."

"Thats the Good Plan... what happens when that doesn't work?" Grace questioned.

Mike spoke up, "I've still got 5 EMPS. Something tells me that they'll be needed here. I can create a big enough Distraction to make them target me. I just need someone to Cover my Back."

"I'll do it." Kali informed as the racked a round in her sniper. "Been meaning to send these Bastards a personalised message for a while now."

"Right. We can work with that. Got any idea where you will throw them?" Twitch asked.

"Those Flying Tanks are the biggest Crutch ive seen in a long time. Time to rip it out from under them." Mike's grin was near Feral as he moved out. Kali following behind.

"They're on their way. It's now or never." Eliza informed as rainbow set their Plan in motion.

From Orbit, the Spirit of Fire had just got into Position as the Pod Bay opened once more. Five pods hovered over the Abyss as a countdown was heard, before they shot off. Speeding towards the Surface.

We landed, for what was hopefully one of the Final Battles for Earth. The doors flew off and we were off. Flying through the Base on a mission to save the Civilians. "I'm just saying." Dragon started. "The need of the many outweigh the need of the few."
