After chief and the group destroyed the Covenant Platoon, they sat right at the edge of the cliff. Looking down at the beautiful sight of The Ark. One very calm beautiful sight... That was then quickly picked up the peace with a wind, but this one kept getting stronger and stronger. It now wasn't peaceful anymore, more of hanging on the edge of any rock you could find for your dear life. Looking up, Chief found the Forward Unto Dawn landing down in the small flat area that they were in.
"Sorry for the late heads-up, but you may want to hold on men." Said Keys.
The Forward Unto Dawn then touched down with some real nice reinforcements, including two tanks, a gauss-hog, and some new ODST and Marine reinforcements.
"Welcome to the fight men, we really appreciate the kindness... Now done with the thank-you-letter, let's go kill some Covey bastards!" Said Johnson.
"Ooh-rah!"
"Rookie, gauss-hog. Chief, and Corporal tanks. You two, what's your names?"
"Sgt. Harold and Pvt. Harold, sir'!" Replied the Marines to Johnson.
"Alright, in the tanks."
"Aye, aye sir'."
The troops then carried on to the mission that they were set on to, and went ahead to find a very unknown enemy that they have never ever seen before... The Covenant...
A ghost quickly approached the three tanks that were on the mission to the control room, and soon came to rue that he went there, quickly getting blown up by the scorpions that the chief and Marines controlled, one of them saying, "tank beats ghost..."
A pack of two hunters were in a nearby cave exit where they would ambush the soldiers and kill them after getting their reinforcements, not knowing that they got 66 tons of straight up steel. Worm guts splattered everywhere from the explosion of the H-E rounds that the scorpion used... "Tank beats hunter!"
A phantom flew down from the sky, and the Marine controlled scorpions shot the two engines of the phantom, making it incinerate almost immediately. "Tank beats everything! Oh man, I could do this all day!"
After blowing some more brutes, grunts, and jackals, what used to be a scout location, is now a deadly war-worn graveyard. driving down to the near by forerunner platform sitting next to a large building, the tanks waited to be picked up after the short-lived steel action. trotting into the building where there was a group of tanks waiting on one side of a platform near the bottomless pit inside, the chief pressed a hologram button, activating a hardlight bridge for the warthogs and scorpions to cross on. Trotting over to the door where they would exit, they went through a large opening, and jaws dropped in the process.
A scarab crawled over the exit in a dreadful crablike way, taking each muscle of the wormlike creature to move the claws of the scarab.
"Sir', do I have permission to piss my pants?" said one Marine.
"Keep your mouth shut, 'cause we have to help him take it down." Replied Corporal.
"Fuck..."
"Fuck is right."
