Operation: PROMETHEUS

Rules:This is an actual halo mission so no ODST's. Look here for more info on this mission so you can go by the real stuff. http://www.halopedian.com/Operation:_PROMETHEUS



I was with my fellow 300 hundred in the UNSC Razor's Edge preparing to drop. We have been told about this mission just yesterday. It was so sudden. Kurt trained us well. At the age of 14 we were physically and mentally better than the marines. They told us we were going down in ODST drop pods. I had my new BR55 they just gave out to us. I stepped in pod and waited.

I was phsyching myself up for the mission ahead. me and my fellow 300 awaited our orders and were told that we would go down in ODST grade drop pods. i wished my friends good luck and stepped into my pod ready for whats ahead.

I heard the admiral over the com saying this was extremely valuable target. I knew then i was very important. I was going to lead my friends and comrades into combat. The pod was a tight squeeze with my SPI armor. I strapped myself in and hoped for the best.

I look around the area were my fellow soldiers where i went to the armory to grab my shotgun and BR55 and my grenade launcher i started to walk to my pod when i seen my good friend Robert

I said hello to Shane. I had my shotgun,sniper,and BR55(Silver Saint no DMR). [Flashback] First day of being a Spartan-III I knew i had to have friends. We had been told the description of the project and then i met Shane. Instantaneously we bonded. We both mastered the ability of the shotgun. We also were great leader's getting us the rank of Petty Officer Grade 2.[Back to Pod] I wished him good luck and we were briefed and launched.

i was gearing up for the trip i made sure i had my shotgun a br55 and my tacticle combat knife

Salutes Robert and steps in the Drop pod and straps all his gear in looks down and see my rosery that my dad gave me, bless by my mother this was the only thing i had of them and again i remember why i do this for my parents to avenge their death now im ready im a spartan i was chosen to do this

The pods launched and we were underway. . . We landed safely. I check for all Spartan's, damn we lost 5. Average i guess of about 2%. I went over the comm. Saying" O.k we lost only 5 on the drop. When i finish talking we need absolute silence. As of know they think that was just a meteorite shower. Shane form up first and second platoon i got third and fourth." We formed up in this huge valley about 5 miles from the factory.

im formed up on shane

I was one of the last drop pods to hit the earthy feature of this meatorite. I open my pod& heard the message over the comm. I picked up my sniper, br55, & combat knife. I was told to follow the spartans that were in wolf pack. But to stay far away from them& do not get in contact with them. I sighed & remember seeing all the spartans with an object that reminded them of their families before the drop, I gota little sad but I shook it off & continued the mission.

I contacted Neo and told him to form up on me. I said we don't need any lone wolf stuff we got to work together as a team. Once he got there him and me went ahead to scout. Once in position with our sniper's i told the 300 to move up. 3 2 1 we both took out jackal sniper's on post and they charged in. I grabbed the first grunt I saw and broke his neck. I thought to myself(Damn that felt good to get revenge). There was about 20 charging at me so I threw a frag and boom they were gone. I activated my camo and snuck into the factory.

I was formed up on robert and saw him take down the grunt i took my shotgun out and start running next to robert he told me he had the factory and turn the camo on i saw and elite ran to me i look at Neo and said "this ones mine" I ran to the elite took my knife out flip over the elite and stab him on the head jump on top of him and made sure he was dead by shooting him in the face with my shotgun and took my knife out one down many more to go i said and i started running towards the factory

as i was watching the flank on shanes group heading to the factory i noticed an elite in the corner of my eye and acted indifferent as i kept walking but slowed my pace. the elite took this as his time to attack me and as he snuck up on me i silently gave him a round house kick to the torso stunning him but not knocking him of his feet. as the elite was reeling i quickly pulled out my tacticle combat knife costum made and jabbed it straight into his face using the force of my blow and sheer strength to dig it into his skull bringing him flat on his back dead. as i returned to the group i utered tango down and heard muttering as the less experianced in our group hadnt realised what transpired.

I let shane& robert continue on, but I went back& went on the ridge over the factory to get a better view. I rech the ridge& I spot something suspicious & I toggle my binoculars. I saw an coventant strike force group closing in on the factory. I turn on my comm & said " Robert you have a problem, theres a Covie strike force comming towards the factory. I advise you to pull back to setup an ambush or a plan" {imagine a nonemotional voice[plain]}

Turned the comm link on and talked to Neo & Robert "Ok i got the strike force on NEO give me sniper cover ok robert just keep going ill handle this ill meet up with you soon dont worry" Runs and see's 2 SMG on the floor and puts the shotgun away and piks up the SMG'S and starts running towards the advancing Covenant strike force

Turned the comm link on and talked to Neo & Robert "Ok i got the strike force on NEO give me sniper cover ok robert just keep going ill handle this ill meet up with you soon dont worry" Runs and see's 2 SMG on the floor and puts the shotgun away and piks up the SMG'S and starts running towards the advancing Covenant strike force

following shane i pick up the smg that i kept in my pod and head for the strike force blazing guns. at first we see scores of grunts but we quickly mow them down losing only 2 spartans from the lobbed plasma grenades. quickly marching on without a glance to our fallen comrades knowing there dead we proceed on to fight the second wave. halfway throgh the second wave my smg runs out of ammo i quickly lobbed it at a jackal crushing his skull from the impact, wanting to save my ammunition for later i pull out my combat knife and start dispatching several covies. there leader an elite zealot rushes after me seeing whats going on, he rushes after me with his sword and lunges, i narrowly dodge the lunge and break his wrist when he passes me forcing him to drop the sword as he reels in pain i pick up the sword and slices his head off. i then searched his body and found several energy sword charge packs.

Once I was inside I planted the explosives on 2 of the main 50 generator's designated for destruction. Then a golden elite ran past me and not even knowing i was there. I pulled out my knife and threw it at him. Instantaneously he grabs it before it hits him. I had a running start and punched him straight in the face breaking the left side of his jaw. Then he runs around the corner to have backup. The first one, a blue elite I blow his legs off with my M90 tactical shotgun. The second one a red one i hit with the butt of my gun breaking his arm then when he went down in pain i hit him a second time crushing his neck. The golden one stood there looking absolutely shocked at our skill, I pumped one in his mouth splatering blood on me. It was funny because the blue one was crawling away muttering something, no problem for my tac knife. Then looked up. Great, a whole covenant battalion. I ran calling in a retreat and re-group at rally point bravo.

I saw an elite running towards me i take my SMG'S out and did a front flip over him i unloded half a clip to his head i landed on the floor and use the dead elite as a meat shiled and got it stab by a energy sword i throw the dead elite on top of the other one and i shot him in the face 2 down i sed to my self and i see a grunt running away i grab my tac knife and throw it at the grunt and got him in the head i see a jackal running away i take out my BR55 and head shot him i Hear roberts retreat over the comm link and reinforce it and yell retreat

I heard the message over the comm that had order to retreat. I went into a shaded area becuase some jackles with beam rifles were coming towards me. I didnt do anything just watched how they communicated. I saw them get ready to fire at shane, johnny,& other spartans...then I took action. I pulled out 2 of my combat knife& stab one in the chest& one in the neck& the others had gotten the same fate. Out of nowhere a elite kicked onto the floor towards a(n) sharp piece of metal that pierced through my armor. I screamed in agony& the elite picked me up with one hand& on the other brought out an energy sword.

[Flash back when he was training as a boy, with the ONI Worker was talking to him about his past] ONI worker says "Son, do you know who you are?" me "Im Neo, I dont know my last name or my family or where I came from" ONI worker "I can tell you not alot but some of what happen to your family& how you got here" me "o..o..okay" ONI "Well you were young boy& your planet was attacked by the covenant forces. Your family had put you on one of the escaping ships that made it pass the atsmophere. Your planet was blown up by the coveant& on the shockwave of the explosion you knocked your head real hard& you forgot alot of things." [me tearing up& forming my hand into a fist] "How did I get here?" ONI "You were put into a(n) Orphanage& one of us here at ONI saw something in you that made us believed you were on of the many here to become a supersoldier, thats why you are training& thats why you are here. & also get revenge on the Covenant that took your life& family away." Me "Hmph..{salutes} Well Im gonna train to be the best here& once im ready I will get revenge on the Covenant& I will kill every single one of them! I will make my family proud.." {ONI Worker Grins}
[End of Flashback]

I looked at the Elite& Right before he swung, I kicked him in the chest& we both fell. I picked up my combat knife& ran towards him& stab many times untill I got tired. I stood up looking at the dead Elite, Confused of whats happening I didnt know where I was Or what was I doing, looking over ridge watching the Spartan retreat& I couldnt go with them becuase I was just Confused I was just still.

seeing neo just standing there blood rushing out of his armour i grabbed him and asked him if he was okay. when i didnt hear a responce i took the elites energy sword packs (for the one i stole) and hefted neo on my shoulder. i screamed on the comm link to give me cover fire so i can run me and neo out of this hellhole.

I was yelling retreat and running when i seen Neo and Johnny struggling to get away from the covenant strike force thats closing in i sed to myself"Dam it i gata go help them spartans! give me cover fire no man left behind" and alln the spartans with all their might stood their ground to save their fellow brothers i took out my SMG'S and ran towards them their was an elite about to stab johnny that was carring Neo i tackle the elite and yell "hurry up get the fuck out of here" i got up and punch the elite strait on the face look up and shot 2 other elites in the face with the rest of the SMG ammo i threw the smg's down and took my BR55 and gave covering fire and we started retreating back to rally point bravo

back at rally point bravo i sit neo down on a chair the i remove his helmet. i noticed something immediately wrong as i look in his eyes and they looked glassed. i called back to shane who was standing nearbye to go and grab our medic officer. while shane went to go grab the medic i started slapping neo in an attempt to get a responce. but there was nothing the hormones injected into us during the training had already clotted his blood so the bleeding stopped in his torso. nonetheless i knew something was wrong.

Lookks at johnny breathing heavily. Grabs his arm tightly& try to gasp for air. My eyes start to close slowly but I tried my best to keep them open. The lights were fading& I finally knew that this is it. I smiled inside becuase I was gonna die in the first battle on this meatorite, alone...as long as I saved a couple& trying my best to fight. I look up& say "Thank you" then I close my eyes.


(Note: Im not dead, I went on concious)

Looks at Neo with the medic and see's johnny worried "johnny dont worry hes fine the doc is guna patch him up and hell be ready to fight again" johnny looks at me and shakes his head and walks away i look at Robert and see him talking to other spartans i walk over there to give my report and tto talk to him
