Ok so this time I was actually going on the spirit of fire instead of leaving them to go fight more covenant.
It was pretty cool to hang out with other spartans but it still sucked that Anders got kidnapped, I could have saved her i really could have but no I have to bend to cannon.
They were trying to look for her when we randomly got a distress signal from her, away from harvest and onto an unknown planet. We all looked at captain Cutter for an order and he sighed before saying "Lets go".
Before any of this stuff happened I had grabbed an extra slip space drive so hopefully we dont get stuck in that shithole of solar system, like in cannon
We quickly space jumped towards the coordinates and were evolving around a... weird looking planet was the only way to explain the feeling I was getting from it.
I looked down there and gulped I knew what was on that peice of garbage and really, really didn't want to go.
Yet Captain Cutters orders all ground troops to go down there and try and find Anders.
Me, Red team and Forge go down there with and elephant and search for her.
We were stomping through thick forest and yellow...well yellow everything it was honestly the most disgusting thing I had ever seen.
Than I heard it, they finally had came, thousands of infection forms ran towards us wanting to consume everything in sight. Me and my fellow spartans eyes widen in surprise yet still shoot at them while the regular marines freaked out.
Combat forms pop put of knowhere trying to attack us. I sped around punching through there bodies like wet tissue paper just like my fellow spartans.
But they wouldn't stop, more and more surrounded us the more we killed, it was like a never ending wave of flesh and blood trying to consume more flesh and blood.
Forge didn't even see any was still inside trying to look for Anders signal and drive the elephant like a total asshole.
Finally Cutter picks us up and goes through that weird water portal thing that they went through in cannon. I was staring out the windows looking at the beautiful scenery of the teleporter when I saw a ginormous Covenant cruiser coming through right behind us and it looked like it was gearing up to ram us.
I ran to Cutter and told him what I had seem but Serina had already informed him. He tried to steer out of the way but it was too quick and it was able to slam into are hull damaging it.
The crew started repairs while I ran onto the covenan cruiser ready to cause some well needed havoc.
I ran through the ship killing any covenant I saw intill I was finally in the control room.
I than took down its sheild letting Cutter use the repaired Mac cannons to destroy the ship while I got back onto the spirit of fire just in time.
We than landed upon the sheild world and immediately deployed troops. Forge had called over the coms that he had found Anders safe and sound.
After me and Red team destroyed a Covenant base we met up with the 2. Anders was telling us about how the covenant was going to get thousands of ships that were even more advanced than they had right now.
Everyone's eyes widend at the insane thought of the covenant being even more advanced.
We all new we would have to stop it by any means necessary, so Forge and Cutter came up with the plan to use the slip space engine to blow it to peices.
I had given the extra one to Cutter earlier, even before we got to the creepy planet with the flood so he wouldn't feel suspicious about me knowing we needed it.
We all were happy with the outcome if we win since we could run away with lots of kills and maybe even a safe Harvest so we put the plan into action.
We got everything ready and were about to run over to detonate the reactor when I hear the covenant honor gaurds. Red team turned around and dispatched of them even easier than in cannon.
I knew there was 1 more elite prowling around here and as soon as I heard the energey sword noise I teleported to the sound kicking Aribiter in his stomach knocking him to the ground. He looked up with wide eyes and screamed "Die Devil"
'oh so im a devil instead of demon? is that good or bad?' while I was thinking on which had the better nickname me or cheif the Aribiter had quickly gotten up and sent a wild punch towards my face, I dodged it easily and swept his feet out from under him. He flipped up and was falling.
While he was in the air I axe kicked him into the ground. He spit up purple blood, he was going to try and get up but my battle rifle was already in his face blowing it to pieces.
I looked to the side to see red team just standing there. I waved at them and everyone accept Jerome flipped me off.
Forge laughed at us than activated the reactor. I picked him up and we all ran towards the spirit of fire, Cutter shot the ship into the sky and slip spaced out right in time before the whole solar system blew up, and HOLY SHIT was that a big explosion.
When we walked out of the portal and back to Harvest we saw that almost all covenant forces had gone to that sheild world. Like we thought almost all of Harvest was clean of covenant scum.
Me and red team were immediately sent onto the world to go around and check around the planet for more covenant forces while the Spirit of Fire looks around in space.
Me and Red team had found some infantry but they were easily dealt with, the only people still on Harvest were the brutes who wanted to finish there fights.
The only time where they could compete with are strength was when they were in there rage mode, but that still didn't help them since they could compete but would would never win that competition.
Jerome the best spartan on red team had worked his ass to the bone to reach 600 mph and 4 tons of strength.
Seeing the spartans like this just made me excited. Only 5 spartans died in cannon before reach, the only reason the other 2 died was because we thought we were invincible the other 2 no names showed us we were not.
Of course we could kill these brutes like they were flies, and Plasma bullets only put scratches on are bodys but only I could survive a glassing cannon and that would pit me out of commission for weeks maybe months.
We only needed in squads of 3s or 2s to change the fight on the planet in days.
We were recovering more tech quicker than in cannon, we would probably get sheilds in 3 or 4 years, it was amazing to watch how fast are spooks worked to incorporated the tech.
We might even get Cortana earlier which i would never oppose against Cortanas early creation.
I was thinking about all this stuff while dodging Alice's punches and kicks, she apparently hadn't gotten over the Jai comment from earlier.
Jerome was laughing while Douglas was just face paling while stepping on a brutes skull. Some how he showed a disappointed expressed through his visor which made me and Jerome laugh even more, Man I really missed my family.
