User:Justanothergrunt/Battle of Creon

Prelude
The Battle, was an attack on a Covenant outpost on the planet Creon, the UNSC had defeated the unsuspecting Covenant in hours.

The Battle
The 2 Ships carrying the troops first bombed the outpost, which suffered heavy casualties, before the troops were landed. The ship "Graceful Dent" was shot and damadged whilst landing by a Covenant ant-air wraith.

The troops swarmed the remaining Covenant within the outpost taking them out quickly as the Covenant were mostly hiding in rooms from the bombing, thus when the troops came, (and after finding the large amounts od Covenant within the rooms, which was the primary source of death for most UNSC troops in this battle) a frag grenade could clear the room clean.

Several Covenant however had made it to a group of Ghosts and drove down the marines not inside the buildings, one of the marines killed was private Mitch Peters. These Ghosts soon fled however, as did the remaining Covenant.

Aftermath
The Covenant ordered the glassing of the planet, so the UNSC wouldn't beable to utilise it against them.

The Graceful Dent, having been damaged would be targeted by Lokstok after the battle, leading to several more deaths.

Mitch Peters after death would be reanimated by a dormat Flood infection form, would turn the deceased bodies into his own flood army, leading them in the Battle above Creon, and would eventually evolve into a mini Gravemind.
