[Halo] New! San Angeles RPG

[Naked Crook]

Anaconda growled as he pushed forward, using his massive size to push through the barricade and Marines. It did not take Anaconda very long to break through, leaving nothing but wreckage and bodies in his path. Nighthawk watched from cover, as he held his fire, only taking shots if he needed to. However, at the rate that Anaconda was moving, Nighthawk could not remain in cover for much longer. Nighthawk: Let's move forward! Let's keep up! Nighthawk emerged from cover, moving in prone, as he kept his sights forward. As Nighthawk began to close the distance gap, he noticed that the few surviving Marines began to fall back and group, running away from Anaconda. Nighthawk scoffed, as he yelled out. Nighthawk: Anaconda! Hit the deck! Now! Just as Nighthawk had finished his sentence, Anaconda allowed himself to fall to the deck, his chest hitting the ground with a loud thud. With the line of sight clear, Nighthawk had clear shots of the retreating Marines. Without any hesitation, Nighthawk began to fire. Tye and Cameron also joined in, as they fired their weapons down the corridor, around and over Nighthawk, who was in prone as he fired. Tyber: Open fire! Take down those Marines! Don't let them fall back! Meanwhile: Xyrho had left his private chambers, as he moved through the corridors of The Divine Inquisition. He was on his way to the Barracks to try and organize a team of Elites to bring with him to The Ulterior Motive. As Xyrho made his way to the Barracks, he ran into Voro, who was with several of his Spec-Op Elites. Xyrho: Voro! I require a moment of your time! We must speak! Voro looked at the Elites he was with, as he nodded and dismissed them. Voro then looked back to Xyrho. Voro: What is it, Shipmaster? Xyrho: I require your...expertise. I am about to begin a charge against The Humans...and, admittingly, I will require your talents, both as a pilot, a swordsman, and a special-operations officer. Voro: Is that so? Xyrho: It is. However, you should know that this is not a request, but rather, an order. You will comply with this order. Voro laughed, as he stepped towards Xyrho. Voro: Of course Shipmaster...of course...

Liam shook his head as his hand reached to the side of his helmet. He listened to the reports coming in from around the ship. Desmond approached him and looked at Liam. Desmond: Boss? What's the plan? Liam shook his head. Liam: We have reports that the duo are hitting a security checkpoint. Another team of ODSTs are hitting the medical bay, not sure what they're after. A few other teams are keeping the hangar bay secured. We are losing men by the minute. Jessica rested her rocket launcher on her shoulders and looked at Liam. Desmond glanced over at her. The other Spartan-III's all stood there, waiting for orders. Desmond: Boss? Liam: We go after the duo. And we find out where they took that prick Jacob. Desmond looked at Liam and placed his hands on Liam's shoulder. Liam looked at him and shook his head. Liam: I am going to find that boy...and kill him. Meanwhile: Once the others were clear, the rest of Diamond broke from the stairwell and joined the assault team. Ice and Kader covered behind them as the entire group moved forward towards the medbay. Mason and Madison knelt down as their magazines went dry. Madison: Out! Axlon, Cadiuex, form up in front!

As Tye and Cameron moved forward, they fired their weapons, cutting through the line of Trust Marines. As the final Marine fell, Tye and Cameron began to reload, and Anaconda climbed back to his feet, and brushed himself off. Nighthawk also got back to his feet, and began to reload. Nighthawk: Good work guys. That's how it is done! Nighthawk stepped forward, walking down the corridor, moving past Tye and Cameron, as he knelt down next to a dead Marine. Nighthawk began to search the Marine's body for anything he could use. Tye watched as Nighthawk began to search the Marine. Tyber: What are you looking for? Nighthawk: The usual goodies that these pricks carry... Tye looked at Cameron, and Cameron shrugged. The two men then looked back at Nighthawk. Nighthawk was silent for a moment, before he spoke up. Nighthawk: A-ha! Tye and Cameron stepped forward, as they watched Nighthawk pull out a Trust PDA. Tyber: A PDA? Nighthawk: Not just a PDA...a networked PDA. This has everything we will need to effectively move around. I may be able to pull communication frequencies, orders, and even a precise floor plan. Tyber: How long will that take? Nighthawk: Not long. As Nighthawk and Tye spoke, Anaconda had knelt down, as he was sniffing around. He finally let out an audible growl. When he did this, Nighthawk looked at him. Without missing a beat, Nighthawk knew exactly what was going on. Nighthawk: Who did you find? Anaconda sniffed around a bit more, before he finally stood up, and turned his head to look at Nighthawk. Anaconda: The Consultant... Nighthawk's interest was peaked. Nighthawk: You mentioned her before. Anaconda: Yeah...the Human who likes to touch. Anaconda let out an annoyed snarl. Anaconda: She is very close by. I have a fresh scent. I can track her. Nighthawk: You seem eager to find her. Got a bit of stiffness? Anaconda turned his heard and let out a growl. Nighthawk: Muscle stiffness... Anaconda shook his head away, as he gave a few more sniffs. Anaconda: She may not be alone. I have a few other scents...not as strong. Smells like Nova Team. Cameron: Smells like Nova Team. How the hell does he know? Anaconda grunted, as he looked at Cam. Anaconda: I just do. Anaconda stood up, as he began to walk forward, as a rapid pace. Anaconda: Let's go! If we hurry, we may be able to catch up! Meanwhile: Xyrho looked at Voro, and gave a nod. Xyrho: As long as you follow orders Xyrho...we will not have a problem. Xyrho gestured his head, as he turned, signalling Voro to follow. Voro complied, as he followed behind Xyrho, following his superior to the barracks. Voro: Are we looking for other Elites to accompany us? Xyrho: In so few words yes. TO add to that...I am looking for SPECIFIC Elites. There are only a few that I trust enough with what our mission will be. Voro: You mean the mission to kill Humans? Xyrho: Well, there is that. However...I need soldiers who will not be afraid to draw their blades when they engage a "god" in battle. Voro stopped, as he looked at Xyrho. Voro: What are you planning to do Xyrho? Xyrho stopped, as he turned back to Voro. Xyrho: The Humans have something in their possession that should not exist. We know it as Vanguard. Voro became wide-eyed. Xyrho: We both know the danger of that word. You, perhaps less than I, given the fact you YOU allied with it, as opposed to against it. Now is your chance to redeem the stain of failure and shortsightedness. Voro: How did it survive? Xyrho: I do not know...nor do I care. I simply want to see it destroyed. With that said...the long we stand here, the more difficult that task will become. No more idle chatter! Xyrho turned, as he once again resumed walking towards the Barracks, intent on finding Vhat, and anyone else who would be a reliable asset on this mission.

Of course, Urran had left the Major in charge now. He continued tapping his fingers on his sword hilt as he headed off toward the Barracks, unaware of what Xyrho was planning. He sighed at the ridiculous amount of corridors on this ship, not that he should have been surprised-- he knew the ship like it was his home. He eventually reached the Barracks, watching the others of his kind-- some not-- milling about. Dark nodded. "Okay." He stayed behind Cameron, dropping the now-empty magazine on his rifle and loading a new one in, racking the slide. "Confirm kill order on Nova Team, sir?" He asked, just to make sure. Jesse chuckled as he dropped his rifle, pulling his shotgun off of his back and firing another round, hitting a Marine in the chest. His HUD read three shells left. "Running low on shells!" He called.

Thor: "So you guys are going after the Human and his pet. Do you want us to join you there or stop the ODSTs?" Hel: "We could also try and flush the UNSC out of the hangar, cutting them off from their support and trapping them on board." Meanwhile: Cadieux and Axlon did as they were ordered, moving forward and taking point, starting to fire on the Trust marines so their allies could reload.

[Hells Sniper]

As Cadiuex, Axlo, and Jesse began firing, Mason and Madison moved off to each side of the door and waited for the fire to die down. Kader, Snyder, and Ice meanwhile turned around and covered the area in front of the medbay. Trust marines began to fall one by one as the team moved inside the hallway, mowing down the resistance. Once the fire completely died down and everyone formed up on each other, Kader, Snyder and Ice had formed a perimeter. Madison radioed to Ice. Madison: Ice, shouting inside, unarmed doctors and nurses. Ice turned around and stared into the medbay. Madison: Orders, sir? Ice stared back at the medbay. Ice: Axlon, Caudiuex; I want you two to ziptie any unarmed nurses or doctors. Jesse cover them and keep them in a corner. Madison, Mace, continue with current objective. Ice turned back around. Ice: We don't have long on this position, so blow the suites and let's move. If we can take the prisoners, all the better, if not... Ice paused. Ice: Diamond does't take chances. If we can't take em, we kill 'em. Meanwhile: Dangerus and his bodyguards headed towards Dangerus' phantom. Dangerus was intent on joining the fight and talk with Anaconda once more. He was determined to end Vanguard, here, once and for all. Dangerus grabbed his gravity hammer on the way towards his phantom as he spoke to his guards, six of them. Dangerus: My brutes...you are most loyal, and some of the fiercest fighters I have ever seen. Dangerus could hear some grunts. Dangerus: When we enter the human ship, we will encounter...two types of humans. You are to engage only the ones I command you to engage. A few brutes grunted. Dangerus: There is a reason behind this, a reason that the hierarchs will not understand, but that you must trust me on. Dangerus stopped and turned, letting the blade of his hammer scrape against the floor. Dangerus: Do you trust a brute that came from nothing? The brutes began to growl and grunt. Dangerus: Do you trust the brute that led this fleet to victory? The brutes got louder. Dangerus: Do you trust your Chieftain? The brutes all roared as Dangerus growled back. He had the loyalty of his pack and that, that was all that mattered. Dangerus: Then follow him to victory, once more! Dangerus turned again, lifting his hammer and heading towards his phantom. Meanwhile: Liam shook his head, he was blood-thirsty, focused on Jacob's killing of his best friend and comrade. He wanted blood. He didn't reply, he simply stared at the hallway in front of him and grunted. Desmond saw this, he put his hand on Liam's shoulder. Desmond: Boss, Savannah would want us to continue the fight. Jessica walked up to Liam on his left. Jessica: And the UNSC already has Jacob, preliminary reports indicate they took him after he got Savannah. The UNSC will not forgive his treason, he killed dozens of them. He's a dead man, Lee. Liam grunted again and shook his head. Liam: He's not dead, unless I see his head severed from his body. Desmond forced Liam to turn and look at him, Desmond had a couple inches on Liam, so once he looked up, he spoke. Desmond: Then...let's start with taking the heads of his fellow comrades. Desmond couldn't see, but he could tell Liam was grinning underneath his helmet. Liam: Let's. Liam turned to Hammer Team and looked at them. Liam: Thor, you and your Spartans are with me. We go after the psychopath and the ape-- Emma: And the ODST team, sir? Liam grinned and turned to Emma. Liam: Lyle, take Emma and William. Intercept the ODST team and silence them. Lyle nodded as he brushed William's shoulder. They all nodded. Liam: If there are no more questions... Liam picked up his DMR and pulled the stock back, clicking another bullet into the chamber and disposing the old one. Liam: Let's take some heads. Meanwhile: Jacob was still in a small interrogation room. Before, two unusual Agents had moved him around, until he finally ended up here. He sat alone, his legs and hands cuffed together and then to the ground. Jacob remained still, he stayed calm and he controlled his breathing. I don't know who those Agents were. I've never seen them on this ship before. And Protocol CROWBAR? Jacob shifted a bit, he shook his head. Forget about that. Frost is going to talk to you soon. Get your story straight, you know her, you've worked with her. You can get Preston on your side...he hates Spartans, I just took down a real traitor. Jacob took a deep breath and remained calm. You can do this. He could feel some of his wounds festering, but he had faith that if the UNSC was going to kill him, they weren't going to let old wounds do it. If they were going to make an example of him...Jacob began to chuckle. He had seen it before. UNSC sure do love their televised executions.

Axlon and Cadieux switched their primary weapons for their sidearms, reloading to ensure they had a full clip, swapping them. Axlon: "We're ready when you are, Sir." Meanwhile Thor: "Alright, let's get these bastards off of our ship."

[Hells Sniper]

Madison nodded and looked at Mason on the other side of the door. Mason nodded. Madison: Safeties off, any of them come at you, shoot to kill. Madison pushed a fresh magazine into his assault rifle as Mason placed a new clip into his battle rifle. The two nodded once, then twice, moving their hands onto the doors. On the third nod, the two opened the doors simultaneously and pushed inside. They quickly scanned the area, seeing no discernible hostiles. Mason fired his battle rifle twice into the air as Madison yelled. Madison: All of you on the ground now! We don't want a bloodbath! Suddenly, a dozen or so nurses and doctors hit the deck as Mason and Madison moved inside. They kept their weapons trained on the doctors and nurses on the ground. So far, so good. Mace: Harmony, get the hell in here! Concurrently outside; Ice was watching the medbay doors as Snyder and Kader were keeping an eye on the hallway. Kader: Ice, we can handle this if you wanna join them. Ice laughed as he turned back around. Ice: It's good. I have full faith in our boys. Snyder coughed. Snyder: And ladies.... Meanwhile: Liam nodded. Liam: Let's move Spartans. My best guess is they're heading towards Vanguard's position. We regroup with the guard their and intercept. As Desmond and Jessica began to move, Liam looked at Lyle. Liam: Stay on comms, Spartan. Lyle nodded as Emma and William began to turn the opposite way. Lyle: Yes, sir.

[Kairu]

Axlon and Cadieux filed in, keeping their sidearms ready and remaining focused on the scientists as they subconsciously removed a bundle of zipties from a BDU pocket. They began with the closest personnel and started to restrain them. Meanwhile Thor and Hammer Team readied up, checking weapons and ammo. The fight with Nighthawk and Anaconda was going to be long and intense the entire time. If they weren't careful they would be next after Savannah.

[Dark-F137]

Jesse kept his shotgun trained on the scientists as they were ziptied. He didn't want trouble, but hell if he hadn't found it already. "Nice and easy, boys and girls, we don't want any trouble. Guys, what's the status on these nurses? I need them out so I can blow the suites." He said. He didn't want to kill unarmed personnel, but hell, if he had to, he would.
