Nick Pov
The sound of an explosion is hard to not hear, "What the-?"
"Get to battle stations!- We're under attack!" 34 loudly shouts over the intercom throughout the whole base, "Their after our flag!"
After that I can hear a feminine voice comment, "But we don't even have a flag?"
"Its just something I wanted to shout," 34 answers.
I stand up and rush out the door leaving the ODSTs behind with Dillan.
Another explosions goes off throwing me off into a wall, I stagger back up and look down the hallway, 5000 and Yang along with a bunch of Marines are rushing down towards my direction.
Shaking off my pain I continue down the hallway as they take a right turn and outside of the base.
As I turn the corner to the outside I draw my magnums out and immediately see what we're up against.
Two colonies of Hunters are battling with the Marine Shotgunners and Snipers. Two Hunters are fighting the Marines, the other two are fighting 5000 and Yang.
I decide to help the Marines out. As I rush up to them I can easily tell all of their heath statuses. Their still fine for now.
"Hey watch it!" A sniper shouts as I run past them and towards one of the Hunters. As I run I fire into the back of the worm creature getting its attention to focus on me.
"Yeah that's right.." I whisper to myself as I jump over its plasma shot. I land on the Hunter's shield and then run up to its shoulders. Quickly taking my advantage I grab the head of the Covenant and drop to its back, unlatching a grenade's safety pin I pull the second pin off and toss it in the Hunter's back.
I quickly leap off its back and watch from the ground as I skid across.
*Boom*
The grenade blows up making the Hunter fall forward, but it quickly recovers and turns around slowly.
"Hah! Gotcha!" A shotgun Marine flanks the same Hunter I'm fighting and blasts its back. "Oh crap!" The Hunter swings backwards and throws the Marine across the landscape, but even in mid air the soldier fires another shotgun shell.
The Hunter goes down with a thud and the Marine flies into a rock.
"I will kill all of you!" 5000 yells as he struggles to pick up, and throw a Hunter into the ground with a even louder thud.
Yang quickly steps back as her Hunter swings downwards at her, she swings into the Hunter's exposed front middle with her sword.
The Hunter tries to swing back at her but she vaults over it.
I change my view back to the other Hunter that was terrorizing the Marines. Now its doing that at a scale of times 100%. Without its counter part of the colony it has become enraged.
The Snipers seemed more organized than the Shotguns but they aren't doing as much damage.
I run up to the Hunter grenade at the ready.
34 Pov
After finally getting my suit on, especially since I had to do it in front of a A.I., I rush out of the room and make my way down the flight of stairs, the explosions have most definitely stopped hitting the base but that means that they are probably hitting other things.
I pull out my SPNKR and then sprint outside into the fight.
"Oh," There's already one dead Hunter as Nick and the Marines fight the other one. I turn my head to the other side to see Yang fighting a Hunter while 5000 holds the Hunter by the weird throat, then fires a shot into it, making it fall limp and die after he throws it into the side of the mountain.
Now the Hunter Yang's fighting becomes a weird, wormy, mad mess of an enemy.
5000 is not paying attention and is tea-bagging the Hunter that he killed.
I immediately face palm and stand disappointed.
Well it seems like I won't be needed. I just shrug and step back a bit watching the fight.
Yang rolls out of the way of a plasma blast, then jumps over a swing from the Hunter.
I lean against the base unconcerned. If I'm needed then I will help, if, is the keyword.
"Hey, wat I miss?" Sparky comes out of the base not even looking ready to fight, he's just got his blowtorch in hand and a Magnum in the other. No armor on either.
"Nothing really, just some dumb Hunters," I respond.
"Yep. I've got some holes to fill, I'll be back!" And with that Sparky takes the direction of the nearest damage from the Covenant.
"Should you not help your allies fight?" Cherry asks me as I continue to watch.
"Ah their fine. They don't need my help," I wave off Cherry's concerned question.
"If you are so sure."
I watch with a smirk as the Hunter Nick and the Marines were battling falls down dead, right where it- well was standing.
Just then as Yang was going in for the jab at the Hunter it swung straight down on top of her- but she quickly holds her hand out to stop the shield from crushing her. One hand out holding back the shield, the other has one of her swords at the ready.
"ARE YOU SURE YOU SHOULD BE INACTION?" Cherry questions with a bold tone.
"Just watch. I mean, have you not read my teams psychedelic files?" I sarcastically comment as I watch Yang struggle to hold back the Hunter's force.
"Oh? Should I have looked at those before?"
I open a holograph and show Cherry, waiting for her to inspect the file of information.
"I assume that's a yes," Cherry responds, then leaves me and into the file.
I go back to a relaxed position as I watch Yang hold off the Hunter. Then, a sharp growl breaks out as Yang's feet push deeper into the earth, she takes a step forward, then another.
She starts pushing the Hunter back one advance at a time, "Nyyaaaaa!" She let's out a war cry and shoves the Hunter back.
The Hunter steps back staggered, then steps back forward and charges well, not Yang anymore.
She evades out of the way of the Hunter
