In Response To: She kept my TV, part 2............. (Skavenger_s7)

: If you missed it........
: http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/halo.forum.pl?read=268080

: ENDING OF PART ONE...........................................

: Goatrope: who, ok. it's cool. If you say nuthins up then nuthis up. I'm cool
: with that.

: I pulled it back.

: Skavenger: OK, we go to try to help our friends... nothing more.

: Korahal danced along with us, "Cool! this is like the fellowship of the
: ring.... only there are only 3 of us...YES! Just like at the end ...I wanna
: be Legolas? I wanna be Legolas. Can I be Legolas? We are the fellowship of
: Louis, no...ummm HBO. Yep, The fellowhip of HBO!

: Skav and Goat: "SHUUUUUUUT UUUUUUUUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

: I just realy wanted to go home...............
: ___________________________________________________________________

: continued..........................................................

: So off we went. We got about fifteen minutes away from where we started and
: I stopped. Goat and Kornhole dropped down.

: KORHAL: *whispering*"what's he doing........................... does he
: see
: something.......... I don't see anything... do you see something
: Goat?.............

: Goatrope: "I think he's lost"

: I turned to them and threw my hands up in the air. "I don't know where
: the
: hell to go?" "Kornboy dragged me off to some place I have never
: been and now
: here we are. Any ideas?"

: Goatrope came up along side me and said, "Well we are still pretty much
: in
: this canyon with only 2 ways to go. We basically have a 50/50 chance either
: way."

: The canyon started to rumble and a slow humming noise filled our ears. Goat
: and I took for cover and KORHAL put his ear to the snow. "Don't worry, I
: am
: part indian" he said. Goat ran out and grabbed him kicking and screaming
: back to some rocks where I was also hiding. He pulled out a pistol and
: shoved it down KORHALS throat. "I am leaving this here until they pass,
: the
: only noise that will give us away is the sound of my gun going off... get
: it? That means SHUT UP or die", GR said. We all watched as a column of
: Grunts and Jackals with one Wraith and 2 Ghosts made their way towards us.
: There were Elites on the outskirts of the column, in front, back and
: sides.
: It was pretty obvious they were searching for survivors of their last
: attack. I could see some of them with human blood spattered on them. It was
: making me mad to know they were part of my friends deaths. I couldn't get
: the images out of my mind of the last things I saw. I wondered who made it
: and who died. I look at Goat, he was feeling the same, scared and wondering.
: But now wasn't the time for revenge, there were too many of them. The
: Covenant were still a little ways away, I wasn't going to be seen but I
: needed to plan our next move. I looked around and coming down the canyon was
: another small group...of HUMANS! Yes! It was some of our guys. OMG, I was
: hoping they would see the Covies before they were spotted themselves. Shit,
: I couldn't risk giving our position away to try and warn them. All at once I
: saw them head for cover, almost directly across from us. They made it safely
: and unnoticed. The column approached.. I scoped in and saw them. There were
: four of them and They were looking around and spotted us. YES! I took over
: holding the gun to the inside of KorHal's head and GR scoped them out.

: Skavenger: "If I let this out will you promise to keep your big mouth
: quiet?"

: KORHAL: *nodded quietly*

: Goatrope: "OK, I count 4.....4 of our guys. It looks like Guy made
: it.....
: and there's some old man..."

: Skavenger: "Louis?"

: Goatrope:"No, older than you both, I think it's brian Josselyn.....and
: there's some guy facing the other way watching their rear...oh it's miguel.

: SK: "How do you know?"

: Goat: " It's him...who else would shave the back of their head with a
: bungie
: symbol?".."and our 4th guy....looks like........Ross"

: * * * * * * *

: ROSS (looking with scope accross the way): "OK, There they are, you were
: right there our guys. I see Skav, Goatrope and Korhal with his pants all
: wet"
: GUY: "I'll try to get their attention" Guy moves to where Goatrope
: can see
: and points back to all the guys, himself and holds up four fingers. "I
: told
: him there were four of us."

: * * * * * * *

: Goatrope:"Hey. Guy says there are all ready to attack on the count of
: '4'."

: SK:"What? Attack? are you sure? Why would he pick the number 4"

: Goatrope:"Yes I am sure, he pointed to all his guys and held up four
: fingers."

: SK: "He must think there are more of us, tell him we only have
: three"

: Goatrope holds up three fingers...............

: * * * * * * *

: Ross: "Goat said 'OK'....what does that mean, what did you tell him to
: do
: that he agreed with?"

: GUY:"I didn't say shit, I told him we had 4 guys,"

: Ross directs Guy to stop sending signals and get over here behind the rocks
: out of sight. Brian joins them and Miguel draws in and faces the column.

: * * * * * * *

: Goatrope:"yep, there moving around over there, getting into an attack
: position allright, they want to fight."

: SK: "This is suicide. What the hell is going on over there. Brian should
: know better than this. I hope he freaking has something up his sleeve."

: Goatrope:"Relax, Brian has 'something',or maybe 4 'somethings' and wants
: us
: to back him up. All we have to do is join in when we see what he has
: got"

: So, we got into position. As best as three scared guys behind a pile of
: rocks could do.

: * * * * * * *

: Ross, looking back,"Yep, there definatley getting ready to fight."

: Brian:"Look, Skav wouldn't have gone along if he didn't have something
: really special to drop on the covies. All we have to do is be ready when he
: gets whatever it is rollin'....we need to back him up"

: And there we all were. A bunch of misguided forum goers on mixed up
: communications, ready to back up a leader that wasn't even present! At least
: there was 7 of us altogether, that should have made the Bungie gods smile on
: us..............But it didn't.

: The column moved up and slowly divided any communications between us and our
: friends accross the way. We could see some marines in the center of the
: Covenant group and a few HBO guys as well. I spotted ElSleazbagano ( I was
: wondering where he had bee lately, he must have been sucked into his game
: a noth ago), I saw B-sharp (who looked like he had been beaten badly) and
: also Postman was there too. I kept sitting there waiting for
: Brian to make his move, looking back I am sure he was waiting for the same
: thing from me. We all stood frozen and holding our breath. The covenant
: stopped. Silent they stood there. Their column not moving. They drew their
: weapons, and stood looking up canyon. man it was so quiet I swear I could
: hear Korhals nuts shrinking up with fear behind me. I looked around and
: walking down
: canyon was a Hunter. He was prodding a captured soldier...no wait... it was
: Geary! The hunter had captured him and was leading him to the column.

: Skavenger: "Is that........."

: Goat:"Yep, they caught Geary"...."But something weird is going
: on....Geary
: has a gun tucked up under his coat."

: Skav: "How the hell did he manage that?"

: The hunter came with in a few feet of the Covies, and one elite stepped out
: and started to to talk to the Hunter. All at once the Hunter belted the
: elite and Geary took off down the column for the prisoners. I wasn't sure
: what that elite said to piss off the hunter but whatever it was I was gonna
: use this moment to make myself known! Brian Josselyn saw the Hunter and then
: saw me rise up to fight.

: Brian: "This is it! Skav bribed a Hunter! He's on our side! Let's go! I
: knew
: he had a plan!"

: Everyone jumped up and ran at the covies. The Covenant started to fan out
: and return fire on us. (There went that damn music again............. that
: really does hinder more than help I learned) Some of the captured marines
: wrestled a weapon or two and were joining the fight. I was giving this
: Jackel my Jackie Chan routine when I heard a guy screaming..."He's gonna
: die"......"He's gonna die" This dude was off with his head in
: the snow not
: far from the action. I ran over and grabbed him. "Whats wrong, get
: up.".. He
: said, "He's hurt, they're gonna kill him."...I looked around..
: "Where is he?
: I'll get him", I asked.....The guy said, "You can't he's almost
: dead, and he
: is the most important guy here". I drew my gun outstretched and swept
: around. "Where is he? Who is he? Louis? WHO!".. a pair of elites
: started to
: run at me, so I grabbed this dumbass by the throat. "What the F**K are
: you
: talking about?" He looked up at me and said, "You can't save him,
: he's gonna
: die......... you tried." I yelled,"I haven't tried shit yet, I
: haven't seen
: him yet, what the hell is going on??" The elites were upon me, one
: grabbed
: me like I was a bottle of ketchup and started to squeeze! The other quickly
: drew his sword and was ready to strike when Miguel dropped in. He took an
: assault rifle to the back of the Elite's head and then when it turned around
: screaming to face Miguel, there was one kick to the nuts followed by a few
: rounds carefully placed to it's head. It went down. The elite that had me
: started to use me as a Louieville Slugger. Every swing at Miguel missed and
: landed me against a tree or a rock. "Would you hurry up and finish this
: guy
: please?" I screamed. Miguel hit him head on and rolled around with a
: plasma
: grenade to his back. The elite screamed in anticipation I screamed out of
: total fear as the grenade went off. We both fell to the ground. "Wow
: those
: don't do as much colatteral damage as I thought."

: MIG: Look behind you."

: I turned a bit to see the grenade had burned off all my clothes in the back.
: Pretty much from my ankles to my neck there wasn't much more than a few
: threads.

: MIG:"You don't get into the sun much do you?"

: SK: "Asshole"

: MIG:"What were you doing over here anyways?"

: SK:"I was trying to save somebody, but this queer wouldn't tell me where
: or
: who he was, I think he might have meant Louis, but he was so mixed up he
: couldn't tell me where he was , and by the time my head cleared, the elites
: had me."

: MIG:"He wasn't talking about Louis, he was talking about himself."

: SK:"WHAT??"

: MIG: "This is Pico, he's just like Geary, these 2 idiots always talk in
: the
: third person, and it almost got you killed"

: I whacked Pico unconsious with my gun.

: SK:"I guess I should say thank for saving me, I didn't think you even
: liked
: me, Mig."

: MIG:"I don't, why do you think I let that elite swing at me so many
: times
: before killing him?"

: Miguel raced back to join the fight. I pondered what to do. My temptations
: were to shoot him, but he did save my life. That bastard. I ran back into
: the fight. I saw that Hunter slinging plasma all over the place. He was
: taking out his own guys. They were confused, I was confused but who cared. I
: mean hey, if these little Covies were pissing off the big guy then so what.
: I was firing like a mad dog, I was hitting everything I shot at.(at least
: that's how I remember it) I was
: firing like a pro. When I found myself face to face with the Hunter. I
: raised my gun out of total self preservation. The hunter waived both hands
: at me..."NO Skav don't shoot me" My mouth dropped open and I
: stumbled back a
: step or two. I mean hey, this freaked me out."You speak english", I
: stuttered. "No shit..... he he he, just like you do", he replied. I
: asked,"How the hell did you know my name?" He began to laugh.....
: "It's me,
: c0ld!"......"c0ld vengeance" ...I shook my head.........
: "NOPE"....... He
: said,"Dude I was playing on my modded box when I was sucked into the
: game,
: so...here I am!" I looked around, I guess nothing should surprise me
: anymore. We were winning, all of us, and with only a few casualties too. The
: Covenant were starting to scatter. We had the upper hand and mostly thanks
: to c0ld! I reloaded and ran back into the mess. C0ld jumped back in and
: started tossing grunts into the walls and making big blood splatters all
: over. I backed up a bit and took in the sights. Brian had stolen a ghost and
: was ..................... well running people over. I don't think I saw him
: fire even once. Ross stepped right out in front of a ghost and was hit! It
: bumped him 50 feet.I screamed, "ROOOSSS!!! NOOO!!! "He simply got
: up and capped a few rounds at the
: disbelieving elite driver. Ross looked up at me and yelled ."Overshield
: at just
: the right time!!!" I smiled back at him.
: The noise growing in the background made me shiver. All the bad guys were
: dead, and all that remained were some exhausted friends. I looked at GUY. He
: looked up and around then back at me....."Banshees!" . We could all
: see
: pretty far in both directions. The Banshees started to fly around to mark
: our location for the ground troops. Closing in at us was thousands in each
: direction. Foot soldiers followed by Wraiths. This was not going to work
: out. We had all migrated close together in the center of some seriously blood
: covered snow. Everyone was hurt
: bad. Guy was bleeding heavy from the chest. Ross' overshield was wearing off
: and he was starting to feel the pains of a few broken or fractured bones.
: Brian was
: pretty clean, but his Ghost was about done. Miguel was eating a sandwhich
: and holding a sniper rifle. He looked pretty unharmed. Then there was me,
: blood striped across my face, beat to crap, and my ass hanging out in the
: cold from my plasma torn suit. What a site we made.
: There was no getting out of this. They closed in all around us, still
: several hundred yards away, they lit their swords and loaded their weapons.
: We all slowly bent over like a bunch of old men who hadn't stretched before
: a game, and picked up a weapon.
: Miguel got into position in the snow, kinda deep and said"Let's get
: ready,
: this is it....."

: Brian:(focused on the first group that would hit us)said," Just let me
: get one Ghost....just one Lord and I'll teach these
: heathens to fear you"
: A goofy kid who always seemed to have an opinion of anything anyone would
: say that day came up to me and introduced himself. "I'm Nick".
: I nodded as I reloaded my guns.

: Nick:"Listen, we only have a few minutes before they get close enough to
: attack, so......... um. Are you Skavenger? the guy who writes all those
: stories?"

: Skavenger: "Yes, and videos"

: Nick:"Videos? You made Halo videos?

: Skavenger: "Yes, like that's the first thing I did. Hurricane Halo?
: Built
: Ford Tough? The Castle? Any of those ring a bell?

: Nick:"Nope"

: Skavenger:"Figures, way before your time"

: Miguel: "Could you two shut up? And Skav, stop with the shamelss self
: promotion and let's try to keep our eyes on the ball here"

: We all went quiet. I was thinking about all the guys who died earlier. I
: knew there was no way out and we were all gonna be next. We were all gonna
: die. Right here, right now, this was it. Our memories were going to be
: reduced to just a lot of empty space on a forum where we USED post.
: Nothing more.
: The covenant had their final position. They said something out loud to us.
: Ross said, "They want us to surrender" Korhal stood up and put his
: hands in
: the air. Guy kicked his legs out from under him, "we are not going to
: surrender you fool"..."And if I don't see you shooting this time
: I'll kill
: you myself" ........It was quiet for what seemed like forever. With a
: loud
: war cry they came. Running and shooting and a field of grunts throwing
: grenades ahead of the advancing elites. We began to return fire. We were
: amazing. I mean it is hard to describe how good and accurate desperate men
: can be. But it wasn't going to be enough, we held them back for what was
: only seconds but seemed like hours. But they jumped into the middle of us.
: Even c0ld who was switching bodies couldn't sway the outcome of this mess.
: Goatrope was out of ammo and swinging his rifle at anything that moved.
: Miguel had cut off an elites hand and was using the still active sword to
: cut them down one at a time. I saw Brian fall from plasma fire just as he
: reached a ghost. Korhal was running aimlessly in circles with his eyes
: closed and his hands straight up in the air. True to his word, Guy plugged
: him twice in the leg as he fell to a dogpile of Jackles. Just then the
: Covenat stopped. I mean like really stopped..... none of them moved or
: fired. After 3 seconds they started up again. This disoriented us but the
: Covenant were back into full killing mode. I turned around and saw Geary get
: run through. "Geary's dead!", he screamed.I was out of ammo
: completely now, and a Hunter was marching
: right at me. "c0ld?", I whimpered. He walked up and pushed me down,
: put his
: foot on my neck and warmed up some green gew for me. "c0ld, this isn't
: funny", I said. Right as it fired,I closed my
: eyes...............................
: I was dead................ But I didn't feel dead. I opened my eyes and the
: plasma was inches from my face. Turning my head I could see other strange
: expressions also. Pico was removing a lit but not exploding grenade from his
: arm. All the covenant had stopped frozen again. For some of us it was just
: in time, for others it was too late. I scrambled out and fired at a couple of
: frozen Covies......Nothing happened. For the few of us that lived, we almost
: started to cry. Then another noise. A voice......
: From deep in the canyon we heard.."HELLO!.......HELLO?" I answered
: back...."Where are you?"
: The voice came back.."Up here" I looked around but could not see
: anyting.
: Within a couple of seconds I could see a figure.... a man...WAY WAY up where
: God lives.Higher than th etop of the cliffs. "Who are you I asked and
: how did you get up there?"

: Laughing was all I heard. We looked all over up there but couldn't see who it
: was...............Guy picked up a Sniper Rifle and began to look closer.

: GUY: "Frogblast!...HEY! It's the Frogman!!! YES!!!!"

: Skav: "What the hell is going on ?"

: Frogblast: "I overloaded the game....LOL...... take off! Run! I can only
: keep it like this for a few more minutes then you sorry souls are back on
: your own!"

: Off we went, dragging the injured and pilfering the dead. As I was running I
: noticed he was right. the whole thing had stopped but us. Even the snow
: wasn't falling anymore, just sitting there motionless in the air. We ran
: until we could run no more. One of the marines that had lived found a small
: cave and we dove into it. Nobody spoke a word, we just looked around out of
: breath. I took count of who made it and who died. I think we got another 45
: minutes upspin from the Covenant. Just as I started to breath easy I saw
: an expression on Miguels face I din't like.

: SKAV:"What is it?" as I turned and looked out the cave.

: Miguel:"The snow. It started to fall again. Whatever Frogblast did is
: over...there on the move again"

: I still really wanted to go home.......

: (to be concluded)

: _________________________________________________________________

OMG, Skav, that is really some of the bes stuff you've written. Sure, not as humurous, but great. When Froggy "showed-up" I knew it! Two things left: the Vshields-Ash cameo, and my return! ;)
