Halo: the last stand

"Fireteam Crimson report to the docks immediately!" Says Roland over my HUD,"the commander wants you now, she says its urgent.""tell her I'm on my way",I say, as I jog down the long hallway towards the docks. All of the marines I pass by salute me out of respect for my position. I am a Spartan. I am the leader of the best fireteam in the universe. Fireteam Crimson. The best of the best. My fireteam consists of twelve trained, veteran Spartans, killing machines is a better description. Our fire team has a Stalker, a Wetwork, an Operator, a sniper with recon armor, a Pioneer, a Pathfinder, a Rogue, an Engineer, a Tracker, a Spartan IV, a Mastery,and finally me, a soldier. In other words, The Works. Two men with shotguns guard the door to the hanger bay, or as the crew likes to call it, The Docks. The men at the door will never and have never let anything past those doors.-'or so I thought'- I jogged in and the commander called me to the war room.the war room is basically a large conference room with a hologram table in the center. It is the place where Spartans receive mission briefings. This can't be good. By the look on the commanders face, something terrible is about to happen or happening. I sprint up the stairs and am greeted by the commander. She begins by saluting and I salute back. Then she starts to program the hologram and as she does this she tells me what is going on. "We've found mdama and there is no better time to teach a lesson he won't soon forget". I nearly fall out of my chair."Commander, with all do respect, I have feeling that if send only ONE Fireteam to assassinate mdama, we will never even be able to come within sight of wherever he is hiding."I say this for good reason too. Jul mdama is a covenant terrorist who has been a pain in the UNSC's a*s ever since the first war with the first war with the covenant began."I'm not sending one fireteam Spartan I'm sending Ivy, Castle, Majestic, Domino, and Crimson", she says."now are you gonna let me finish this briefing or are we going to sit here while mdama buries himself deeper in his hole. I'm finished commander. Good" ,She says sternly," mdama has buried himself in a hole with anti-air guns and an army of elites. Your mission is to eliminate jul by any means necessary. You want ordinance? There you go. Air support? Already on route. This is a full on assault mission. Jul will not get away. Understood?" " yes sir commander sir!", I shout,"Then go kick some covenant a*s!"

I walk out the door and head for my Pelican, a drop ship that brings me to all of my missions. The captain stops me as I walk toward it. "Nope", he said,"your not riding on this bird today, you are are taking a more surprise approach Spartan." " what's that supposed to mean?", I ask curiously."your taking the banshee's.""are you freakin kidding me!",I say,"those are for the most dangerous missions!" "This qualifies with jul mdama" he says back as he picks up a crate full of missiles."besides, if we took Pelicans, we would be shot down by invisible forces." I begin to walk away, feeling submissive. When I arrive at the banshee station and summon my team. They arrive in less than a minute. I repeat what the commander said and the end I yell," Grab your weapons!" Then, my whole team rushes to grab there specialty weapon. I jog up to a crate of weapon and pull out a SAW and a battle rifle. After everyone was ready I told them to hop in and we all got into a Banshee. A banshee is basically a covanent airship that fits one elite or human. A marine opens the hangar doors and we speed into space."wolfhog 1 checking in", I say as I turn slightly to the left and head for the base."wolfhog 2 all systems online" says Jake." Wolfhog 3 not a scratch" says Luke. And so on until our mastery, Mike, says that he's good. "Alright everyone, prep for landing."

As we begin our descent, I can feel the tension through the mike in my helmet. The team is nervous about the anti-air guns. They don't shoot us down as we come in and I feel my team begin to relax." The hasn't even started yet team, don't get cocky." Then, the covanent powers down the anti air guns so they won't shoot us down. Thats when we attack.
