Mission: Under attack

[retnuh]

"minous get of ur arse over here there is another troop of grunts coming." Retnuh gives minous a hand up and a new clip and starts unleashing bursts from his rifle. Retnuh and minous only are able to let loose a few rounds before blaster fire is upon them. They both dive behind the downed pelican and scream for reinforcments.

[Red Star]

Red Star links up to Elidor. "Sir, I have an idea on how to destroy the phantom's turrets. There are some drop pods in the pelican containing some jackhammers. If we can get a hold of them, we can probably knock them out and possibly win us this battle. To do it I'm going to need you minous, and three others. You all secure a perimeter. I'll run inside and grab the jack hammers. Then I'm going to need you and two others to help hang back so I can repair the Pelican. From what I can tell there's not much damage. Of Course, that's just looking at it from the outside. But I'm 60% sure i can repair it. It's risky, but it may win us this. The new reinforcements can only buy us so much time. What do you say?

[Elidor Blueflame]

All that you get in response is static....(Your charecter dosn't know this but as you might have read I took my helmet off, and so I have no way of contacting you. You should go to the highest ranking guy still there which would be Trenal.)

[Admin: Retuh, you can't MAKE Minous dive behind the pelican, thats god modding.

The Scorpian finishes off the second Phantom but soon comes under attack by the other one. It falls into a retreat and you lose its support. There are 5 grunts and 4 Elites left, and 2 downed Marines, 1 new downed Special Op.]

GOOD LUCK!

[Minous]

Minous ran up to Red after hearing the plan. "Sounds like the only option at this point. Where do you need me?" Minous slapped in a new clip into his BR and shot down 2 advancing grunts, then shouldered his weapon.

[Red Star]

"I need you to get two of your squad mates and send a runner to tell Elidor the plan. Then follow me to the Pelican double time." Red Star lets a quick burst from his smg kill a grunt."And make it quick."

[Minous]

Minous spoke over the COM. Moments later, 2 marines were at attention next to Minous. Minous turned to Red, "Alright, lets move."

[Elidor Blueflame]

[Admin: HOLY SHIT IS THAT MARINE ON STEROIDS!!?!!!?!??! I'm in a Warthog being driven to the base for medical attention, I wish I could run that fast lol. ]

[Mattrik Trenal]

Trenal, almost exploding with the need for air, noticed that nobody else was around him. He rushed out of the water, and saw that reinforcements were here. Smiling slightly, he came out of the water, to find out the status of his men. The covenant attackers were driven off... in their vicinity at least. Trenal knew the base was probably still under attack and that he would get more orders soon. Trenal, for now, viewed how horrible war is. The battle-experienced Sergeant had never seen anything like this. He saw limbs lying about, bloody, pock-marked and burned. The water coming in was turning red as dead corpses bled into it. The place was a mess. Some entrials were scattered across the battlefield, and the corpses of the aliens were nearly as bad. They spewed blood from holes and some were still living, wounded, unable to move.
Trenal jumped instinctively out of the way of a phantom plasma round. He forgot this thing was still going on, even without immediate ground support the Covenant was still using the skies. Trenal looked around for the Major but realised he wasn't there. That left Trenal in charge.

"Okay, marines, secure yourselves a perimeter!" Trenal yelled over his headset, "Spec ops, suck it up and keep fighting, I know you can get through this! Find anything you can to knock out those turrets! If anyone has an idea to get those phantoms or their turrets down, tell me! (OOC: Hint hint Red) Fire!"

Trenal looked in the supply drop for something... anything...but couldnt find anything. He fired his BR as much as possible, trying to bide the Marines time.

[retnuh]

Retnuh lines up with his fellow marines waiting till he dies or till the convenant runs out of troops. "Trenal im running out of ammo any idea when we are gonna get resupplied?"

[Red Star]

"Alright Minous, looks like it's just me and you and your marines. Lets move!" Red Star took off and dashed to the pelican."nuts!" he creamed as a plasma blot grazed his arm. He grabbed his arm and still kept running. As soon as he got to the pelican, he jumped inside. "Minous, I need a bandage!" Red Star pointed in the back of the pelican. "The jackhammers are back there. Give them to your men and fire at the Phantoms. I'm going to link to the scorpion to see if he can buy us some time.
"Hey, could I get that Scorpian and a squad of marines to the Pelican? I need covering fire so I can get the weapons to destroy that thing!" Red Star looks at the Pelican's controls. "It doesn't look to bad... No!" He noticed that the thrusters were damaged. He looked for the tool box and couldn't find it. " Listen, someone needs to dive down to the Pelican and get us that repair box, if it's even still there. Who will volunteer?"

[Elidor Blueflame]

[Admin: Red, you need to quit issuing orders. Your only private.

For example:

You said:
"Marine! I need your scorpion and a squad of marines. Get them up to the Pelican. I need some time!"

Try something more like this:
"Hey, could I get that Scorpian and a squad of marines to the Pelican? I need covering fire so I can get the weapons to destroy that thing!"

[Red Star]

Yeah. i was worried about that.... Sorry...
I edited.

[Minous]

"Alright, you heard him. This could be the only way to stop that Covenant piece of crap. Grab those Jackhammers and bring that thing down." Minous then ran over to Retnuh's postion and opened fire. A volley of three-burst rounds went through 3 grunt heads.
Minous slid next to Retnuh. "Miss me?" Minous laughed and handed him a clip, then fired at the advancing group.

[Red Star]

"I still need a marine to go down to the Pelican to retrieve the tool box so I can lift this thing up. Who will go and get it?" Red Star let out a burst and downed a grunt. The wound still bled, but at least the bandage was holding most of it in. He knew that he needed medical attention. But he wasn't going to leave until the Pelican was up and running. He started working on the minor stuff and got the power up and running. he just needed to fix the thrusters to fix it. "Ah screw it. I'll go." He dashed out of the pelican dodging bullets as he went. When he go to the water he dove in and inky blue engulfed him.

[Elidor Blueflame]

The Phantom saw what they were trying to do and locked onto the Pelicans engines. It fired off a lazers until all of the engines were totally destroyed, un-repairible. Yet, they didn't waste shots on the seemingly harmless Pelican since it couldn't move, which left the Pelican's main body fairly intact.

[Admin: Better hurry and get those Jackhammers *HINT*, 5 of Squad 3 left, I gonna say 9 of squad 2 left, and the group of Marines helping you have 4 left and one Scorpian tank and driver.
My squad has everyone left since they're all Members, no NPC's yet.]
