Drake91 Wincing a little bit as the medic worked on his leg, Drake said to Mathias "My leg feels like nothing compared to my back." He then switched his focus from Mathias to the medic and said "What's wrong with my leg, doc?" Mathias stood up straighter, looking down at Drake once again. "The Doc will take a look at your back too..that grenade got alittle too close for your skin's liking.." Mathias sighed, they hadnt taken heavy casualties, but seeing any wounded or dead soldiers that were under his command hit him hard, it was a constant reminder that he too could also be zipped up in a body bag. It urged to fight as hard as he could and to lead his men to the best of his ability. No cowardice, no fear, only a vibrant lust to kill his enemy. He came back to reality, and said to Drake again in a more casual tone, "Least you didnt lose these." He said holding up both his trigger fingers. The Doc laughed, having seen what Lt. Twombley was meaning, but then he answered Drake's question, "well, the armor on your leg took up most of the plasma shot, its just the metal melted and burned into your leg, Its not that bad of a burn though. Few weeks to heal and youll be fine...your lucky that armor was there though..the plasma shot wouldve burned straight into your leg otherwise, and Id be cutting the rest of it off right now.."

Tom had finally depleted the last of his ammo. He was completely spent of ammo. COMPLETELY. there were no covenant in the surrounding quarter mile that dared to come near him, he had killed so many.Even the stupid plasma rifle had run out of ammo. Tom was breathing insanely heavily behind a improvised wall out of elite bodies, clutching a needler.

"I love this armor." Drake said. While the medic was working on his leg, Drake took the time to drop out of his pistol and load a fresh one in. Looking up at Mathis, Drake said "Could you have some of the guys look for my rifle out there? I dropped it when I fell."

The Medic finished treating the burn and finally wrapping well enough for the trip back up to the Armengald. He still needed to attend to other marines who were hurt as well. "Alright Sir, there you go..Dust off should be arriving later." The Medic gathered his things back up and packed them away and moved onto more wounded...
The Lieutenant nodded to the Warrant Officer, musing at his remark. "Yeah, we'll get it back before dust off arrives...The fighting has stopped on the Northern perimeter and the Major will want a report of whats happened, make sure the marines work on gathering the dead and wounded alike. Tell them to gather any weapons, Marine and Covenant both. Roger that?" Mathias said, readjusting his helmet's small HUD screen infront of his left eye.

FireBase Alpha, this is the captain, get you guys patched up and get ready for another attack. The camera's have picked up some long range activity. Looks like Banshee's heading your way, 20 to count. They will be in your area within the hour.
Up here, we're having some trouble. Brennan and his crew of idiots are up here taking care of the Carrier problem. So we cant send any support. Good luck boys... Armengald out.

"Blast!"
He grimaced as he received the new information. He stared downward, full of thought. He wanted time to effectively think over the information, but he knew time was of the essence. He needed to warn those who weren't standing next to the COM Station what news had just come in. Basically, he needed to warn everyone.
He spoke into his COM in a calm voice, yet a stern voice. He didn't want to worry anyone into a panic, but he needed them to realize the importance of their immediate action. "Attention all units. This is Major Orden. There is more covenant activity occurring. There appears to be a group of twenty Banshees coming to our location at Alpha Base. Their E.T.A. is within the hour, so we all need to begin preparations. I will keep all of you updated. Over."
He was about to begin specific orders, but he caught himself. He needed to contact the UNSC Armengald and ask another question or two.
"You." He pointed at one of the COM Technicians. "I need a link with the Armengald now."
The COM Technician spun in his chair and quickly played with the controls. A few moments later, the technician glanced over the controls and turned to the major. "The link is ready when you are, sir."
Major Orden walked forward and keyed the COM. "Armengald, this is Alpha Base. I repeat: This is Alpha Base. We need some more information. Are there any other units approaching Alpha Base besides the Banshees? Which way are those Banshees coming from? Over."

Tom got wind of the transmission, and decided that he could be no help whatsoever in this battle. He began to jog for a hiding place, while transmitting to the commanding officer that, "he was going to be no help at all in this, he couldn't shoot a rocket launcher for crap. Let me know if there will be any ground troops, I am picking up enough weapons to last me a lifetime."
He picked up as many plasma rifles as he could find, and found a nice little formation of rock that would be a nice place to attack from in a ground battle, and a nice place to hide in if the banshees were the only thing attacking. The rocks formed a sort of nook in between the rock and the ground, easily big enough fo him and the just short of 15 plasma rifles he had managed to get there gradually. He also had a couple of needlers and a whole pile of ammo for them. (let's say about 400 shots.)

"Damn, banshees." Drake said to Mathias. "I think I know how to take care of them though."

"Yeah me too heh heh, you get it taken care though. I need to talk with the major." At this the Lieutenant left the Warrant Officer and started jogging over to the make-shift command post that had earlier been established. As he jogged he came across the SPARTAN Kristi, laying against rocks with her arms across her chest. Mathias changed direction to see exactly what the hell the SPARTAN was doing layed up against rocks so casually. The Lieutenant came up to her. "Comfortable?" he said in a stern, demanding voice.

"Yes sir." Drake said as he got up off the ground to prepare for the Banshees. Opening his com link to Alpha team, he said into the com "I need all available snipers and marines with rocket launchers to report to my location immediatly. I will be marking it with a NAV point." Drake turned off the com, and as he did so, his location showed up on the HUDs of Alpha team.

((ok then im just gonna move on...))
Mathias turned away from the SPARTAN and let her alone, starting to jog towards the COM center and let the major know exactly what had happened, on his side of the base anyways, and that defense against the Banshees was already being set into place. Mathias came up to command post and entered it, now walking. He made his was to the COM room where he knew the Major would be.

He looked over to Howie and shook his head. "I'm goin in! You can follow if you want. The last order you will probably get from me is not to die....you got that?" He smirked and lit up a cigarette and got up running down the hill pulling out his pistol he stops beside a covenant elites body to pick a covenant assault rifle and ran towards a big group of covenant firing rapidly with his pistol and covenant rifle he dove towards a rock taking a shot in the leg he grunts as he hits shoulder first against the rock with a loud snap. He squeezed his eyes shut as the pain rocketed through his arm. He took a grenade from his side and threw it over the rock and laid his pistol in his lap and held the covenant rifle with his usable hand and fired as a grunt came around the rock he watched with a pained expression as a plasma grenade rolled in front of him. He tried to get up but fell over again as he put pain on the leg with the gun wound. He looks up at Howie on the hill and threw another grenade over the rock just as the plasma grenade exploded taking with him a good number of the covenant who had been advancing. His pistol landed about 6 feet from Howie.
