I ran green balls of plasma sizzling all around me the grunts firing them close by. I reached an old wall, well it was more of a ruin since this entire are had been saturated by concussion rifle and fuel rod fire. My squad was pinned behind me almost out of ammo. We where making for a weapons cache on the west side of the small mining town of saylem. Reach battle command had ordered us to hold this area at all cost's. I don't know why those fools got to order us around. They obviously didn't know how many men where in a single squad. I peeked over my cover and looked at my enemy. They where spread out around the old town hall. Jackal snipers on the roof skirmishers spread out among the blasted ruins. Elites standing brazenly in our sight, grunt's spread around them.I opened fire my DMR bucking against my right shoulder. With each shot i fired a grunt or a skirmisher fell. and with each shot i fired a volley of plasma came right back at me. "give em hell sarge!" one of my troopers called firing at the enemy. My radio suddenly crackled "THIS IS PELICAN 72116 WE ARE HIT, I REPEAT WE ARE HIT!" I glanced up and saw the source of the radio transmission.
A pelican was above our position spewing smoke from it's engines. " WE HAVE A V.I.P ONBOARD!" The pilot yelled at me " WHEN WE HIT THE DECK WE WILL NEED ASSISTANCE!" It must have spotted our weapons fire because it was aiming right for us. ''Men'' i yelled move back!''. They sprinted like rebuked dogs for the partial cover of saylems Industrial council building. I ran after them and reached the door just as the pelican hit. The pilot had started to pray just before his bird impacted with the ground. ''Cover me!'' i said to the men around me. I ran over to the pelican it's engined still smoking. The pilot was dead, a metal girder had impaled him right through the heart. I began to move towards the back of the wreck to see if anyone had survived in the transport bay, keeping my head low. Those covies had gone crazy, they where shooting any which way. When i got to the back i had earned a few cut's and bruises from the wreckage and the rubble. I looked inside, their where three marines all alive, all pointing guns in my direction. And the V.I.P was there along with them with a DMR pointed at my face. It was a spartan 2. ''We need to go'' i said. They cautiously followed me. We started towards my squad the spartan guarding our rear. We reached my troops and i introduced us ''we are the winter wolves'' The spartan stepped forward. ''i am lieutenant George Barrister'' he announced to us all. the last to introduce themselves where the marines on the pelican. They where a special operatrions unit the
