Trenal sits in his pod, awaiting the metal claws to come loose, and for the pod to drop like a box of rocks to the ground. Trenal knew such an impact could kill him. That is why he joined the ODST corps. With the shock training of taking such an impact, Trenal thought that maybe he could absorb more damage taken in a bulletproof armored vest or suit. This is due to how the vest just spreads out the impact so it isnt so pinpointed and penetrating. SSG Trenal's philosophy was that if he could survive the impact of a jump, he could do the same with the impact of a bullet. Too bad Trenal didn't know that his foes wouldnt use bullets at the time of his enlistment.

Speakers: "We are ariving the target area, raising to altitude to a safe height....this will be a drop at a lower elivation, a bit more impact because your to close for the metal parachute of yours to deploy."

Trenal leans his face into his voice headset, "Aknowledged. Second Squad is ready to drop. Goodluck and Godspeed getting home." Trenal warms up and gets ready for his body to be thrown to the ground at a speed that he had never felt before.... without the metal parachute....

"Ok, we're above the target, before you drop, keep in mind that you're dropping in the middle of a busy rail system. You are to clear this area for the Marines that will more then likely be coming in on one of the Tran's......good luck! DROP!"

Hearing the gears turn from above and below as the claws holding his pod in place and the hatch open to the air and earth awaiting him Hikwsi felt his stomach go into his throat as he suddenly dropped as he slowly counted the seconds as he reached terminal velocity, "this is where the 'chute should open up" he thought to himself and a couple of seconds later he felt the impact rip through his body. Without delay he pushed open the hatch and flung himself forward into a low crouch surveying the area around from behind his now useless pod with his SMG levelled and ready for action, after a few seconds he opened up his comm "Squad lead this is Spirit drop successful" Hikwsi remained vigilant waiting for a response from lead.

Trenal braced at just the right time, as he was trained to do, as the claws jolted open and he flew down. Trenal pressed his body against the wall of the seat and pushed as the impact hit. He stood up instantly and grabbed his BR and headed outside. As he kicked open the door of the pod, Spirit came on the radio. "Squad lead, this is Spirit. Drop successful." Trenal radioed back, "Roger Spirit, this is squad lead. Orders are to find nearest cover and hide, codeword for friendlies entering is 'Thunder' answered by 'Flash'. We will regroup and get the hell out of the area with the Captain." Trenal rolled out of the pod and looked around quickly, noticing the freight station. He ran over to the side of the road, which was a ditch, grabbed two other men coming out of the pods, and dove in. One thing that Mattrik Trenal forgot was that there was a superior officer with the group. Upon glancing at the men, he noticed one had a Captain's insignia on his armor and helmet. (( OOC: Elidor I am assuming the Cpt. is your NPC and thus you control him, so I would write his response, but I dont control him. )) Trenal looked wide eyed and quickly apologized, "Sorry sir, I would advise staying down sir. Codeword is Thunder answered by Flash."

[Admin: Oh, and please don't see enemies until I say you can, got stuff planned.]
"Get your hand off of me, lets move! And to hell with your bloody codewords! Were going in charging!" The Captain then started to run off to scan the Tran control system.

Trenal quickly took his hand off the Captain and looked at him with awe as he said that they were charging.... into a city full of coven't soldiers.... As the captain ran off, Trenal whispered to himself, "Is that guy crazy?" Shaking his head, Trenal got on the Radio with the other soldiers in his squad. "Okay guys, Cap'n has a different plan. Meet up at the Train control system." Trenal followed the Captain to the control system and occasionally glanced around to see if they may be under attack anytime soon.

As they arived at the first door it didn't open automaticaly, as it should have.
"Dam power must be off, someone go find the sectors backup generator..." The Captain siged as nobody spoke up. "I'll go then, stay here i'll be back soon." The Captain ran off to the area most sectors had their generators. As he arived he planted 2 grenades at the bottom of the door and ran off. They exploded and when he ran back he found that the door wasn't totally blown open, but it just needed a good kick. He kicked it down and went inside. He found the large generator and started it up. When he went back outside multiple small, alien like creatures jumped onto him and he fell to the ground...his mind was soon controlled by the monsters.....the Flood.
(You don't know what they are since none of you have been on Halo, although you may have heard rumors you can't identify them. Have fun with them!!!)

Hikwsi was listening to the conversations between the two commanders when he was ordered to move to the control station as he was running in that direction he watched as the Captain rounded a corner and disappeared. Hikwsi ran up near the Sergeant and while spinning around and taking partial cover behind a door way with his firearm trained in the area he just ran from he said calmly almost at a whisper "Spirit in position".

Trenal nodded as the Captain went off... and then came back. He was walking oddly, and it seemed like he was beginning to have some growth on his body. Trenal looked up, saying, "Uhhhm, Captain? Are you okay?" The captain made no movements but to stop and raise his weapon. "Sir what are you-" Trenal was cut off as bullets whizzed by his head. Quickly turning around, he saw a shaking rookie that got a bit too anxious. "Oh my god Sarge. I just shot a Captain Sarge. Was he going to kill us? What was wrong with him? Did I do the right thing?" The private continued to bombard the Staff Sergeant with questions, until Mattrik finally held up his hand, and motioned toward the small figure that was entering the Captain's body. "Shoot it." Trenal whispered to the private. The private nodded and shot the burrowing beast. it exploded, and its tendrils relaxed after writhing awhile on the ground. All of a sudden, a mass of them came in. " Open Fire, squad!" Trenal began shooting the onlslaught of parasites and for awhile, didnt lost anyone. But then, one man dropped dead as a walking humanlike creature holding a Battle Rifle approached. It was about to shoot another man, but Trenal pulled his trigger and its arm came off. Mattrik was briefly dazed, but he shot it again and it fell over. Soon it got back up again. Trenal ordered a grenade to be thrown, and when the smoke cleared, he realised many figures, all of them were walking puff balls, with thrashing tendrils. A few were shot. They fell over and exploded. The small creatures flew everywhere, and many were instantly killed by angry troopers. These men were officially in a firefight with an army of biological weapons.

Hikwsi watched as the Captain reappeared and attacked the squad of special forces and was able to get 2 shots into his chest before he dropped. Then all hell broke loose several small creatures were appearing out of no where and heading towards the group. Hikwsi instinctually flipped his weapon to full auto mode and using the doorway as a steady he sprayed a full clip of bullets into the attacking swarm of whatever the hell they were while reaching down to grab a new clip from his pocket he yelled "reloading, somebody give me some grenade cover." he dropped his clip and quickly replaced it while a frag grenade soared over his head and exploded in a tight knit cluster of the attacking vermin. Before starting to empty a clip into the rest of the enemies he called into his radio "Hey marines it would be very nice if you stopped your joy riding and hauled ass to our location, we have some uninvited guests and not enough food to go around." Hikwsi started to spray an arc into the attacking group and switched his comm to the squad "Anyone know what these things are or better yet how to stop them?"

Trenal heard Spirit's question, and relplied with, "Hell, Private, did we know what the covenant was when we first fought them? Did we know how to stop them? Hell no! But did we figure it out easily enough? Hell Yes! Shooting them seems to work, so just keep doing it until you are empty. Oh, and if you run out, then find whatever weapon you can!"
Trenal fired a burst diagonally so that it hit two of the creatures. He already knew this was about to be a hard fight

Hikwsi continued firing listening to the Sergeant speak. "sorry to interupt your speech sir but I am down to my last clip. I have an idea that will give us a short breather just give me some F***ing cover." Hikwsi leaped forward and crouch/ crawled as fast as he could to the body of the Captain with bullets and guts flying all over the place several of the former barely missing his head Once he reached the body he slung his rifle onto his back and found where the captain kept his grenades. "At least he has all four left" he muttered to himself as he pulled the pins before spinning around and running back to cover shouting into the comm "Duck, this is gonna be a big..." The grenades went of and Hikwsi was flung forward feeling sharp pains in his right leg and shoulder before he hit a wall and everything went black.
