Halo x RWBY: Spartans Duty

Missing In Action

The floor of the drop pod started to heat up while they entered Custodia's atmosphere. The cage rattled as they entered the flaring clouds.

"We'll be coming in hot. D-squad has taken down the arial turrets in the area giving us a clear shot to the ground but reinforcements are on thier way. We do not want to face them. If we are met on our way to Norman then he has a chance to escape. This is an assasination mission. Stealth is vital which is why Yen will be taking point. Romeo will will assist Yen in his sweep of the area and the progression towards the power grid."

"Why is the power grid near the down town area?" Micky asked.

"It's not. We've got a hike ahead of us. I didn't bring any snacks so no complaining your hungry on the way."

"Oh. Funny." Micky retorted.

"Impacting in 5 seconds." Quentin growled.

"Lock and load boys!" Crystal screamed excitedly.

They crashed hard into the pavements of the highway, lodging itself into the concrete. "This is where the fun begins" Reven said to himself before kicking off his door.

The rest of the squad jumped out of thier escape pods, ready for battle.

"Quentin, set the charges, 30 feet." Reven ordered before getting a crisp nod in response.

Quentin started to place explosives around the bridge.

"We're blowing the bridge? Why?" Micky asked.

"This highway was in need of matenece. Norman must've gotten visual confirmation that ODSTs were sent to assassinate him and so we must make it look like all orbital reinforcements were killed upon impact due to the poor landing zone."

"Wait are you saying this bridge could've collapsed when we landed? How do you know more about the mission then we do?" Romeo complained.

"Because you're not in charge of this operation. Quentin...?"

"Finished."

"Alright. You know the music. Time to dance. Yen, Romeo that apartment complex, get to the top floor but do not go on the roof. That's where they'll be looking. The rest of us will jump into the building next to us and descend into the lower level of the city. Romeo, keep watch on the main bridge, tell me what Norman's reinforcements do. Do not engage and stay hidden. Yen, you lead us through to Norman. We do not want to engage hostiles until he is dead. So it is your job to find us a route. Quentin, go with them. Use the apartments wifi and communication systems to try to tap into Norman's commands. While your there get schematics of the city. Sync?"

"Sync" the group responded.

"Quentin once we're clear, blow the bridge"

"Gladly"

"Aw I wanted to do it! Can I?" Crystal begged.

"Fine. Quentin, give our lovely hyperactive toddler the explosive detonator."

"Yeah I didn't like that sentence." Micky said timidly.

"YES!" Crystal exclaimed, detonator in hand. "I've always wanted to blow up civilian property!"

"Really since when?" Reven asked, amused.

"Uh. Since always!"

"That's slightly unsettling." Reven remarked.

"You worry to much!"

"I think it's best if we move along." Yen said pointedly.

"You got it hotshot. Get to that building. We'll rendezvous with you later."
