The lone wraith (a halo story

Chapter 2

I had to make it to HQ. But first I had to make the covenant pay. That single thought drove me to where I am now. I was starting to question my decision to storm a covenant outpost alone. But it's about to be to late. BANG! Yup definitely too late now. I started to sprint towards the nearest elite which sadly happened to be a zealot. I pulled out both of my pistols which might have been a mistake since he pulled a energy sword. I shot him twice before he sliced at me. His slice nicked my shoulder guard but didn't even leave a scratch. I will say one thing though oni makes some pretty strong armor. But  there's still the problem of a pissed off group of elites that thankfully thought I was dead. Kaboom. Oh right I almost forgot there's the massive convoy made up of practically every covenant race currently known to man or at least the ones this man knows which is quite a bit. So yeah back to the part where the elite barely scratched my armor. I quickly rolled back just barely avoiding a slice to the throat as soon as I was halfway through the roll I quickly activated my thrusters boosting my self upwards. When I landed I threw one of my pistols to stun him which kind of backfired when he reflected it back at me causing one of the nearby grunts to fall over laughing but I quickly shot it in the head to make him shut up. I'm pretty sure that was a mistake seeing as though I left my blind side exposed giving the elite a perfect shot at my side which he took, well I mean what can be expected from a zealot. Sadly for both of us he tripped over a rock before he could stab me. I know you're probably thinking what's wrong with that. I'll tell you what's wrong with that. When he tripped he basically tackled me which led to both of us falling into the path of a hunter which I would normally be okay with seeing as all I normally have to do is roll out of the way but this time I had a elite that weighed like 450lbs so my escape was slower than normal allowing the hunter to charge up his cannon in preparation to send me to hell. I tried to use my boosters but it turns out one of them is busted. I guess someone shot me in the back while I was being tackled. So that left me with the only option I had and that was use brute strength. I mean I'm rated to lift over half a ton so this shouldn't be to hard which it normally wouldn't be except for the fact there's like a two ton beast looming towards me that is slowly charging its cannon. I finally got the elite off me and quickly dove to the the side of the path in the nick of time I just barely dodged the hunters cannon round but I kinda forgot those rounds were explosive and I was right in the detonation zone so I was launched like twenty feet. I landed head first smashing my helmet against a rock. I was slowly seeing blackness as my vision faded.
