User:Demakhis/Halo: Spartans Never Die

Background
This is a story about how SPARTANs can die.

Prolouge
SPARTANs never die, that is what people say, but everyone knows that never happened. An group of 75 people could never take on over 10 billion aliens trying to exterminate the human race. Well that was over now, 7 years after the end of the Human-Covenant War the SPARTANs have had no major battles since that. Soon another force would surface and attack the UNSC, actually in three years the Shield Corporation would try to take the life of the galaxy away, well to the story. A recording from a marine’s helmet camera.

“This is Corporal Mendeza calling from the UNSC Endever, pirates ambushed us and their weapons hit our engines. We lost power then a strange blue beam hit the middle of the ship and it was blown in two. The front half drifted into a star and was destroyed the bottom half landed on a strange floating city, confirmed not Covenant. Several marine patrols that we sent out have been gone for 6 hours now. We need immediate evac, I think something is wrong with this place,” Corporal Mendeza ended the recording there and turned to face the marine which stood at the makeshift comm. Center’s door.

“Sir there’s been gunfire in the engine room,” said the marine.

“Well send a fire team down there and kill what ever it is!” yelled Mendeza.

“Yes sir!” he yelled and went to assemble his fire team. Mendeza looked back at the screen and then he heard it a roar and then he turned and picked up his assault rifle. The frightened member of the comm. Center sealed the door and picked up his pistol, Mendeza turned on his flashlight and shone it around trying to see if anything was in the room. As Mendeza looked at the door again a scream was heard form of the camera’s view.

“Holy S@#%,” yelled out another of the crewmen in the room as the corner where the first crewman was standing was now a large patch of blood and a pair of legs propped up against the wall. Intestines coming up from the legs lead up to a vent, which was now a hole in the wall.

“Everyone get out of here!” yelled out Mendeza as he fired his assault rifle into the vent. Pinging noises could be heard from the vent as the bullets ricocheted off of the metal of the vent as the crewmen in the room became more nervous. Then another scream rang out through the small room. Mendeza looked over to see the head of the crewmen just showing out of another vent. Hearing the crewman’s screams of pain he aimed his assault rifle and fired two rounds into his head. His screams of pain stopped and his body went limp. The thing dragged his body into the vent and a splash of blood came into view.

Mendeza started breathing deeper now it was only he and one more crewman.

“Stay close,” said Mendeza, but there was no reply.

“Hey Johnny,” Mendeza said again and as he turned the camera took a picture of a wide gaping bloody mouth and Johnny’s hand in one of the teeth. A arm came swinging at the camera and knocked off Mendeza’s helmet and it rolled so that it faced the ceiling all that was recorded after was a blood splatter on the roof and a horrible bloodcurdling scream of pain.
