The New Age

Bad, No... Horrible Beginnings.

Year 2551. The city was sending calls for volunteers, I decided to go. I had no family. I had no friends. I had no honorable history. I worked from day to midnight in a plasma rifle factor. My hands were going numb from the plasma pumps. I did train hard but I just made the passing grade, I received no extra training.

First The Worst.

My first battle was the battle of the first halo. All I did was stand around waiting for orders. I was then taken to the recently found control room. 3 days later I was standing at my post next to the door that lead to the room. My ears pricked at the sound of human weapons, then I saw it a tank was coming over the hill! our ghosts went to engage them, a ghost plat fell in-front of me. I panicked, because I was the last one left! I was hiding behind a barrier, I watched. There were four human regulars dismounting, and one green one It looked like the leader. The green one went in the door I was supposed to guard, all the others stayed put. I finally got my nerves back. My hands were shaking when I pulled out the plasma grenade. I primed and threw it. The grenade explode in a fountain of blue. The remaining two shot at me, a bullet grazed my temple. Black. When I came to a spirit was unloading troops. I was taken back to the ship.
