"Yeah, next we should tell them what I did to that rice paddy in Arkansas when I was 20..." Rey muttered, finally hesitantly coming out to join the others, since there hadn't been gunfire for a few minutes now.

Hundreds of ships? Sounds like something that I would do whenever I invade something. Bowser thought to himself.

Subaru’s eyes widened,

Hundreds of Ships? Glassing? What the hell was Jorge involved in?!

She looked over at Yuuka,

“Yes, Revolver Knuckle does store Magic…” She didn’t elaborate, because really, she didn’t see a need for Yuuka to know about it. She seemed just fine as she was.

Subaru followed Jorge and rolled up next to him,

“Again, any ideas on civilians in the area? That attack I did tends to leave lots of collateral damage and I don’t like non-combatants to get hurt”.

Hope decided to keep quiet; whilst it was unlikely these soldiers would react to his being a l'Cie the same way people on Cocoon would, he wasn't going to take the risk.

Tron alked up behind the rest of the group. He remained silent, listening in on the conversation.

Ravage observed this altercation from the cover, his cloak preventing the humans from seeing him. So the humans were being bombarded from orbit, were they? Good riddance.

Everson rolled his eyes at Blink. "That's nice, kid. Look, if you don't wanna get killed by the aliens, keep it down. Please."

Jorge shrugged upon hearing Eddie. "Eddie, do you honestly think we would care about criminal records at this point? This planet is being invaded."

As the group ascended, they encountered no movement of any kind. They occasionally passed by a few dead humans, both military and civilian, and more than a few Covenant bodies.

Unfortunately, the silence didn't last. Upon reaching yet another floor, Hawkins pointed to the left and opened his mouth to yell, but he was unable to do so, as he was shredded by several explosive projectiles.

"Jesus!" One of the soldiers cried out. "Hawkins is down, man down!"

To the group's left, a pack of Brutes were preparing to attack. There were five of them; four Brute Minors who had minimal armor coverage and Spikers on them, while the Brute Captain Major wore golden power armor, and held a Brute shot in his hands.

"Brutes, 9 o'clock! Take them out!" Jorge shouted. The Spartan immediately laid down suppressing fire, managing to drop one of the Minors after filling him with lead.

"Surprisingly brutal weapons," Ravage remarked, activating his rocket. The Predacon jaguar streaked down the hallway at an alarming speed and tackled one of the less-armoured, bulky aliens to the floor. "I like it; it's a refreshing change of pace."

With that, the Predacon began to rake and claw at his opponent with talons that could rend steel easily.

Dave awoke at some point following his being forced asleep. The last time that had happened, something extremely inconvenient for all involved had been the result. He awoke in the Command Center, and wondered why nobody had had the foresight to drag him to a room, when he saw the screens.

"Damn it." Dave stayed calm, but approached the monitors. It had already begun without him. He had even been looking forward- in an aloof, cool sort of way of course- to joining in with the action. But now he was stuck outside. What to do?

He wondered if any of them had had their communicators on them when they had been pulled in. It was worth a shot. Keeping an eye on the action on screen, he called out:

"Yo. Anyone getting this?"

"Brutes?" Gordon turned and barely had time to move before a spike tore the air inches from his face. He ran for cover, Spikes chasing him all the way.

Blink grinned cheerfully at the new aliens, and vanished with a pop. She reappeared in mid-air, holding on to the golden-armored Brute's helmet, and vanished again, taking the helmet with her.

"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."

Hahli grabbed the nearest Brute and attempted to use his weight against him, flipping him into a wall before pounding him with a torrent of water.

Subaru was annoyed at being ignored but considering the situation she could under-

INCOMING!

Subaru watched in horror as the UNSC soldier was torn to pieces by the…Brutes? Did Jorge call them that? Yes, Brutes. As the UNSC Soldier was torn to pieces by the Brute’s primitive weaponry. It looked painful and she decided right then and there to try and stop it from hurting her fellows.

Subaru ran along side one wall and muttered,

“Absorb Grip”

Then she was riding long the side of the wall and around the group, going past Jorge and then she shifted to riding upside down on the ceiling. As she came into view of the Brute’s Mach Caliber responded to a telepathic message:

“Shell Protection”

A silvery shield snapped up between her and the Brutes, and Subaru grinned without humor. Shell Protection was meant to protect from solid projectiles…which is what the Covenant was using. Subaru deactivated Absorb Grip and dropped to the ground, spinning in the air so she kept her footing and braced herself against the barrage, which impacted and bounced off her shield, putting deflected spikes into various parts of the hallway.

“Use Me for Cover! They can’t breach my shield!”

Naoto ducked behind Subaru's shield and pulled out her pistol once again. She slipped out from behind it every so often to take a few pot-shots before retreating behind cover once again.

Gordon slide behind Subaru's shield, and scanned for a viable target.

Blink reappeared behind the shield and raised the Brute's helmet, intent on trying it on.

"OH CRAP!" Rey dove for cover, flattening out behind some debris, then aiming the gun and starting to fire it again as best he could. "Oh it's easier to lay down and do it..."

Bowser launched a few small fireballs at the Brute's.

Small in this case being half the size of a human adult.

Yuuka was following not too far behind at a usual leisurely pace.

Need... She decided to make things quick and deftly flew to the Brutes point blank and engaged them with her umbrella. She clocked one over the jaw and knocked it on its back then swiftly stabbed through the neck.

She dodged any stray friendly fire.

The soldiers split up into two teams of three. One was flanking around to the Brutes' side, the other was in cover behind or beside Subaru, covering team one's approach.

A Minor Brute was ambushed by Hahli. He was slammed into the wall and hit by an intense torrent of water. However, it didn't kill him. In fact, it only made him angrier. The Brute grabbed Hahli, roared and pinned her against the wall. He attempted to beat the Toa senseless.

Eddie's fireball came up beneath the Captain Major. He flailed a bit as the flames consumed him, but when they faded, the Brute was burned, but still standing. He proceeded to fire several grenades at the Champions! Subaru's shields blocked the grenade heading for them, so she and the ones behind her were safe.

Blink was successful in stealing the Captain Major's helmet. He cursed the thief in his native language and pulled out a spiker. Taking aim, the Brute fired several spikes at her. If she didn't get behind cover soon, she'd be skewered.

Ravage managed to get the drop on another Minor, pinning him down on the ground. The Predacon was successful is tearing open several areas on the Brute's body, causing him to roar in pain. He would not go down with out a fight, though. With a sudden surge in strength, the Brute Minor manage to flip Ravage over and pin him down. Grasping his Spiker, the Brute tried to slash the Predacon up with the gun's bayonet.

With the combined firepower of Tron's disc, Bowser's fireballs and Jorge, Naoto and Narumi's guns managed to bring down another Minor. There wasn't much left of him when they were finished.

Yuuka wasn't as successful as she thought she'd be. The Brute she attacked stumbled back and was mildly stunned after getting smacked by her Parasol, but he quickly recovered. The Brute barely managed to avoid being stabbed, and he attempted to smack the girl away.

The UNSC soldiers were having a bit more trouble. They focused on the other Minor that wasn't distracted by one of the Champions. The Brute was riddled with bullets, but it refused to die easily, and he fired his Spiker wildly. One of the spikes hit the female soldier, embedding itself into her shoulder. She yelped as she fell onto her back, and she grabbed her shoulder with her other hand, screaming in extreme pain. Finally, the Minor succumbed to the relentless assault.

"Fuck, Galloway's hit! Medic up!" The other soldier following Everson shouted.

Blink vanished at the first sign o being shot at, reappearing behind Subaru's shield. she stuck her tounge out at the brute who had shot at her, still quite oblvious to any other of the truely horrible things that were happening.

Gordon took careful aim at the Brute that was attacking Hahli and opened fire with the pulse rifle, sending the light blue rounds towards the Covenant soldier with a hiss of energy.

Ravage hid his surprise at having the tables turned rather well, snarling in rage as the Brute's bayonet ripped a sparking gash in the jaguar's torso.

"You'll suffer for that, putrid organic," the Predacon snarled, flicking his tail blade out to slash the Brute's wrist and hopefully sever his tendons. Then, making use of his beast mode template's most dangerous feature, Ravage's head then lunged forward and opened wide, clamping his jaws down on either side of the thuggish alien's head, and began to bite down—hard.
