Private John Freeman
North of Alpha Base
"Oh, right. Yeah, let's get moving.", John said, jogging up to Aarno. He winced slightly, his side still sore, but kept up. "That's them over there, right?", he asked Aarno, pointing to some figures in the distance. After a quick walk, they'd arrived at the group of Mongoose. "Ohoh, I want this one!", John said, pretending to be a little kid. He moved over to the Mongoose that was farthest away and hopped on. "Alright so where are you guys headed?"

Private Aarno "Feed" Nikula
North... *blahblahblah*
"Please mind, sirs!", Aarno stated in his Englishman Aristocrat voice, "that this fine fellow has a broken rib-bone that requires medical attention soon."
He was cheerier now, altough the lack of places to grab tightly was worryingly minimal in the backseat of a Mongoose. his driver looked a bit ferocious too. "Umm, hi there..."

Greg 'Frost'Garza
Lance Corporal
North of Alpha base
-------
Frost drove the Mongoose over to the other two, and slid to a slow and easy stop. "You two know this guy?" he used his hand to motion with a thumb point to Representative Carter. "He says he is with the Spooks, and that he is supposed to be taken to the Construct...." The young Hispanic said with little to no accent before adding " how much ammo you two have?" The reason for the question was quite logical, if they met any Covenant, or Flood contacts, they would need fire power. Fist fighting a hungry group of Grunts was not a smart thing to do.

Carter, James L.
Harvest : North of Alpha Base
As they came to a halt, Carter jumped off and walked over to the other marines. He was wearing a fabric mask around his mouth so no one could really identify him. It was mainly for keeping the face warm, but he liked staying somewhat unknown to the others.
He was about to speak when he saw Aarno, so he just saluted. "We should carry on quickly. Longer we hang around, more likely we will bump into something." He then walks back over to the mongoose and waited to go.

Greg 'Frost'Garza
Lance Corporal
North of Alpha base
-------
Listening to the representative, Frost nodded and revved the small engine once more. "Spook's right, we might as well make it to the construct now, we are already out here...." He said breathing out heated carbon dioxide, causing it to cloud up in front of his mouth and move away with the chilling wind.
"Ready?" The Lance Corporal asked his two companions who nodded, and moved their Mongooses over towards him, in order to fall into some type of formation. Making sure the human cargo attached to their rear would have a tight enough grip on them so they wouldn't slip off.
"Then lets move out." Frost said as he started the Mongoose up a snow dune, and over in the direction of the construct, or what he believed to be, the Spook never corrected him on a given direction, so he must have been heading the right way.

Private Thanathos
North-West of Alpha Base
Thanathos wakes up near a battered up mongoose, a dead marine, and his best friend, a sniper. "Huh? How the hell did I get here?" he asks himself. He walks to the mongoose and tries to start it. After an hour of agonizing work, he starts the mongoose. "Yes!" he exclaims. Thanathos starts driving East of his current position.

Private Aarno "Feed" Nikula
North of Alpha Base
Aarno was about to tell what he thought of the odd man with a carbine, but the roar of Mongoose he was riding on shutted his trap quite nicely. Hel***tiiiiii!! he thought and clutched tightly to the structure of the small vehicle. His assault rifle was safe and sound, but Aarno wasn't feeling as secure, especially because his driver was a bit heavy on the throttle and brakes.
"John, John?! Are you fine?!"

Private John Freeman
En Route to Construct
Speeding off, John let off a howl. "Whoooo! Yeah!", he yelled, enjoying the ride...at least until the first bump. When they hit the ground, his ribs suddenly felt a stabbing pain. "Ah, s**t!", he yelled. Tapping the driver, he said, "Hey, I can't take jumps like that! My ribs are ******** up...can we take it easier?"
"Yeah, Aarno. I'm good...just a bit of pain.", he responded. I don't feel anything...I think I'm good...he thought, feeling the tender area carefully.

Corporal Robert "Switch" Heinrich
Location: South of artifact, downed pelican
Currently fixing radio
Robert had been sitting in this smoldering wreckage for the majority of the day, the ghosts driving by too frequently for him to head back to alpha base. The poor corporal sat in the abandoned pelican that had probably been downed in the initial assault on alpha base. He had been fidgeting with the radio on and off since he had heard part of a garbled transmission earlier, something about an offensive.
Since then, he had tried to fix up the radio to send a transmission rather then just receive, but the system was being difficult. He had to replace so much of it he was amazed it had even received and played the transmission earlier. Of course, unfortunately for him, he didnt know what frequencies the reinforcements were using, so he had to not only fix the radio, but get the frequency right the first try, or he'd have covenant forces swarming all over him. The pelican was probably less than a hundred meters from a covenant outpost that had been set up, so it wouldn't take them long to find him.
Finally getting some current flowing in a seeming correct manner, the corporal tentatively tried to send out a transmission, and hoped to god that the power was strong enough to get the message to his allies. "This is Corporal Heinrich, tango company, I am stranded in a pelican about 2 km north of alpha base, I cannot give a more specific location in case the covenant are listening in. I need assistance, there is a large covenant outpost nearby." He took a deep breath, getting ready to send out the next part of his message. "The covenant appear to be bringing in new equipment to the artifact. The appearance is that of demolitions, specifically explosive charges. They may be trying to- OH s**t!"
A jackal had apparently wandered off and decided to look into the pelican as it passed by. It gave him a terribly surprised look for a moment before snarling and reaching for its carbine. The corporal promptly unloaded half a clip from his assault rifle into its torso and sent the creature toppling back dead. A round from its partner then punched through the cockpit and deflected off his helmet, the hardened material skipping the shallow shot. He then took cover closer to the floor, letting the angle the pelican was sitting at give him cover.
"I've been spotted, I need help NOW!" He frantically yelled over the radio.

Lance Corporal Jonathan Coup de Grace
Currently aboard Bravo Squad Six Pelican
Approx. 500 Meters above surface
----><------
Jonathan sat. He had lit a cigar, but only dirt filled his mouth.
Suddenly, the pilot roared. Like the good kind of roar.
"We got's ourselves a live one!" He yelled. Jonathan grabbed an SRS99C Sniper Rifle, three frag's and M6D pistol. Officially, Jonathan didn't own any of these. However, duty called.
As the Pelican began the descent, something foreign contacted with the surface of the airship, less than a mile off the surface. Suddenly, a tail engine was hit as well. The pilot, realising the awful truth, began take evasive manuevers, but a stray bullet left the back of his head on the seat behind him.
Marines began to panic-Jonathan knew none of them were used to this. He went to the front-but realised he was too late. The right wing began to tear, and Jonathan realised they were beginning to barrel roll. The Six G speed took a toll, and Jonathan blacked out.
Coming to, he found himself still alive. He looked outside of the Pelican, but immediately re-drew his head. Stray plasma and bullets were flying everywhere. Covenant where in the area. A group of Grunts threw a plasma grenade, and the poor marine didn't realize it stuck to his suit.
Jonathan's main objective was to find the Corporal. He sprinted, but his H.U.D was cracked-only a fraction of the Corporal's position appeared. Jonathan thought to himself-'How in the hell did I get into this place? I planned on being a member of the scienctific community. I love destiny.'-He saw the Pelican-and a group of Covenant.
Not the one to want to die, he hid behind a piece of the downed Pelican. Jonathan took aim. A bullet emerged from the barrel, and one of the Jackals fell. An Elite yelled. Jonathan realized his fatal mistake, but compensated-as they began to rush him, he picked them off slowly. The ground became stained with the blood of his foes, and he gritted his teeth. Then, the Elite leapt. Jonathan was not physically close to his size-he rolled to the size, and the Elite landed right were he was. Jonathan pulled out his M6D and pulled the trigger four times. One bullet hit the Elite's leg, damaging his calves. He yelled, and Jonathan pulled the trigger.
Unloading the clip, he went for the next-but realized his clips had fallen out when he crashed. Jonathan went for the last resort-he jumped on his back and took his SRS99C. Squeezing the trigger, he prayed to God in a moment of suicidal tendencies. Purple covered Jonathan's helmet, and he laughed triumphantly. Standing up, he walked over to the Corporal.
Jonathan pulled off his helmet. He stood up and looked at the Corporal, black hair in his face.
"Are you alright sir?" He said, similar to a timid child. He then straightened and began to introduce himself.
"Jonathan Coup de Grace, former Lance Corporal Marksman with Bravo Squad Six. Pleasure." He said as he shook the Corporal's hand. He then looked for some spare ammunition.
"I advise we get out of the area A.S.A.P. My squad is pretty much screwed-and neither of us are in the shape to be fighting anymore." He said, noticing the burns on his armor where plasma had hit, and only adrenaline had kept him alive. >> KEEP IT CLEAN <<
There's no way anyone would survive a crash from 500 miles in the air. And at this point Brutes have not been encountered yet. Elites, Grunts, Jackals, and Hunters are all we've seen of the Covenant ground forces. - Hege
>> RESPECT PUBLIC PROPERTY <<

Private Kai
Location: Aboard seventh pelican with Delta Squad. Landing near downed Pelican
Destination: Alpha Base
Kai was sitting near the edge of the pelican and looked down among the ice. Suddenly Kai spotted a downed pelican with two marines seriously injured. Kai quickly yelled out to the pilot. "We have a downed pelican with two survivors! Land now!" said Kai as the pilot did a U turn back to the downed pelican. As the pelican slowly lowered down to the pelican, Kai jumped out of the pelican to meet the two marines. "You two alright? Were Delta Squad... and was heading for Alpha base when we saw your pelican. We still have some room for a couple of marines so well take you guys to Alpha base." said Kai as he walked up to the two to help them get into the pelican. "I'm private Kai. Been in the U.N.S.C for about two months now..."

Private Kai
Location: Alpha Base
Destination: Covenant Relic
Kai looked out into the ice once again as the pelican takes off. Looking for any downed pelicans or marines. As the pelican approached Alpha Base Kai grabbed his MA5C and placed it on his back where the weapon magnet was. Kai then grabbed his M6C and placed it beside his waist. Kai then grabbed two remaining grenades and placed them next to his M6C. As the pelican lowered Kai jumped out with his squad. Kai could see that the damage done to the base was severe. But the base was up and running again. Delta squad quickly ran over to the entrance where Alpha squad was. "We've been waiting for you guys. We haven't seen Bravo squad yet..." said one of the marines. "Bravo squad's pelican was down before we arrived. Their were two survivors but they were seriously injured." said the Delta squad captain. "Well orders from sergeant Forge is to scout the area. So lets go!" said the Alpha squad captain as both squad started to move out.

Private Kai
Location: North Of Alpha Base
Destination: Covenant Relic
As both squad approach a hill, three warthogs approached the squads. "There's an outpost up ahead soldiers! Sergeant Forge's order's is to wait for back up and then take out the outpost! We were to stay here and keep watch and see the covenant movements. But so far several grunts has been going around in circles." said one of the drivers, as the three of them drive up the hill and stops. Both squad comes up behind the warthogs and quickly lays down on the ground next to the warthogs. "Edward, scope the outpost!" said the captain of the Delta squad. "You too Harold!" said the captain from Alpha squad. "There's about fifty grunts in the outpost... There's also twenty jackals in the outpost. They also have three ghost scouting around. No signs of elites and brutes..." said both snipers. "We can easily take out the outpost! Since they don't have any elites or brutes. They don't even have hunters!" said Kai "We have to wait for reinforcement. What if they have reinforcements who are elites, or hunters, or even brutes? We would all be dead!!" said the Delta squad captain.
