At the calm in the middle of a dark night everything seemed to be at peace. There was a slight breeze and the trees smaller branches swayed lightly. Suddenly, a light broke the dark night sky. If one were to look up, they would have seen a bright flash of the fabric of space being torn open.
Then, through the bright light, a dark spot showed itself. The dark spot grew larger and larger. It was clear something was coming from the hole in space.
As the dark spot continued to grow, the wind stopped. The few clouds all disappeared. It seemed as though another island was coming through the hole, a fairly large one. There was another bright flash as the rip in space sealed. This time the light got brighter, and stayed for a few seconds, then dissipated.
“We are through” said a Marine On board the ship
“Weapons Severely damaged in the transport sir” said another
“At least we are all alive” Said Commander Keys. “Status report on the hull.”
“Lost some metal, nothing major, Sir” Replied a Marine. He was sitting at a large computer with imaged of the hull, some bars, which seemed to be energy and other symbols on them.
The ship turned to position itself over the largest of the islands. As it stopped overhead, anyone looking overhead would have seen a large black spot in the middle of the sky with a bright light at one end. The bright light was the thrusters stabilizing the ship.
“Ready when you are Chief. You too Johnson.” Keys said.
“Locked and loaded” Johnson said.
“Launch when ready sir” Cortana replied.
“Remember the plan?” Keys asked the both of them.
“Hell yeah. Kick some ass and make our presence known!” Johnson said, followed by a hoo-ah from some marines over the radio.
All that was heard from Master Chiefs end was the sharp Clicking sound as he cocked his shotgun. “Don't go to overboard with this you two, you have to leave someone alive to spread the word. That we are here.” Cortana said to them both.
“That's enough chitchat” Came keys across the radio, “get in your pods and make sure your well stocked. We will be sending a few mongooses to aid you in your transportation.” As the Chief and Johnson Stepped into their pods, the doors closed. The Chief didn't bother sitting down, as his spartan suit would take the impact for him. There was a sudden lurch as the craft began to move. There was a second sudden lurch as the thrusters kicked in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
During the short journey down to the island, Master Chief noted that there was no planet around or below the island, should he fall off the edge.
As the pod hit the island, the trees around it were damaged from the impact. On the inside of the pod the Chief was performing one last check on his suit and shields. He heard several more pods hitting the area around him. He cocked his shotgun and packed his assault rifle and pushed the button to open the door.
Chief stepped out onto the grass. The weight of him and his suit flattening the grass and leaving an indent on the surface. As he looked around at the surrounding trees, it was clear that he was in a wooded area. Just then a pelican flew overhead, stopping a few hundred yards away. It lowered a little bit dropping a Warthog. Soon after that one flew off again, another, this one stopping almost right above Chief, dropped a mongoose. As the sound of the warthog getting started up, there was a hoo-ah just before it drove away. It was obvious that they had been talking to Johnson.
Chief on the other hand continued to stand were he was, watching the area around him. This place didn't feel like he thought it would. In any case, he hopped in the Mongoose and sped off the opposite way the Warthog went.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stopping a short distance away The Master Chief got off of the Mongoose.
”How are things on your end Chief? [i/] Johnson cam across the radio.
“Haven't seen a thing here sir” Chief said. The “Sir” was added since Chief recognizes Johnson as a superior.
”Yeah, we got nothin here as well, where the hell is everyone?”[i/] Sargent Johnson asked.
“I don't know” Cortana replied. “the chiefs scanners are picking up life, but its to densely wooded here to continue on the mongoose.”
“I saw what looked like a city on my way down.” Chief said, turning his flashlight on. "I'm going to continue on foot." Running in at about half his maximum speed, he kept an eye on his scanner.
(OOC: his max speed is around 55-59 m/h on foot (120 km/h))
