Subject: ODST: Operation High Ground (Part 5 Up)

This is just my first script and I wanted to hear some feedback from someone other than my friends. Good, bad I want to see how you guys like it. This is part 1 of a many parts.

PROLOGUE
The war rages on between the Covenant and the human race. Each battle is harder to win and the humans are losing in the war big time. The main turning point is when the Elites change sides. With the elites with humanity they have more of a chance. To push up further the humans have made a successor to the SPARTAN II Program and a pressecer to the Spartan III Program. These super soldiers are trained by ODSTs and modified by drugs giving them strength weaker than Spartan IIs but stronger than Spartan IIIs. They are called Spartan ODSTs. The Spartan III Program is actually running while the Spartan ODST Program is finishing due to lack of canidates.

PART I
It's an ordinary day at a Spartan run base set up near New Mombasa as a last resort defense to the city. Although it is ment to stay secret, word got out and the Covenant know of it now. There is a lone scout watching for any activity through his sniper scope.

Scout 211:(Into Radio) No activity to report captain, over.

Captain:Keep an eye out for any rogue elites, we've gotten reports of them off the outskirts of Old Mombasa, over.

Scout: Roger, over

Meanwhile at the Elites secret hideout...

Leader: Alright we are going to have to do this quickly, we've already had our cover blown at our attempt at Camp Froman.

Rogue Elite 1: The humans will never know what hit them. After we take this base, New Mombasa will be ours.

Rogue Elite 2: Yes but this attack must be succesful and all we have are light vehicles.

Leader:There will be time...

The setting is now a battle, Elites versus Elites.

Rogue Elite 1: We need cover fire!

Rogue Elite 2:I'm goin camo this Wraith is ours!

Good Elite 1:Watch for their snipers!

Good Elite 2:I'll handle this one!

The Good Elite fires on a sniper and kills him but not before a Plasma Grenade is thrown, sticking to the elite he calls out: I'm hit! Moments later he is blown to pieces.

Good Elite Commando:We cannot lose anything here! Set up turret! Suppressive fire!

Rogue Elite1:They're outnumbering us! Take out the turrets! Bring in Brute Shots!

Hell breaks loose and Elites from both sides fall from enemy fire. Eventually, after major casualties from both sides the rogue Elites turn the tide to their favor. Three Elites cloaked in active camo come in with brute shots and tear apart the turrets.

Rogue Elite Sergeant: That Wraith is pounding us! Somebody highjack it!

A Rogue Elite charges swiftly and highjacks the wraith.

Good Elite Commando:We can't take much more of this! Retreat!

The battle ends as quickly as it started. The Rogues now have the upper handf with a Wraith.

Rogue Leader:Now that we have a Wraith, it's time to invade.

Rogue Elite 1: Finally, we shall have our victory over the demons.

Two days later the Scout is on watch duty again and gets the surprise of a life time, a full scale invasion. They're coming in from underwater!

Scout (Into Radio) The Rogue Elites are heavily armed and advancing! Set up immediate defense!

The Scout takes his mongoose at full speed back to the base and warns his fellow Spartans about the incoming elites. The Spartans, wasting no time, arm themselves and get their hogs and Scorpian ready for battle. The Spartans were quick but the first wave of Elites were already advancing...

Spartan Sergeant: Ready snipers! Fire on my command! FIRE!

[b] The Elite's first line are picked of with ease due to them being armed with only plasma rifles.


Rogue Leader: Snipers, return fire!

Spartan manned turrets begin to open fire. And begin to take out the Elite snipers. The Spartan snipers are hit also losing many. With the elite and Spartan snipers nearly depleted both sides begin open firing. Spartan 211(The Scout) takes out the remaining enemy snipers. The close range infantry begin to charge and that's where hell breaks loose. Blood and death are everywhere. Elites are killed by shotguns and Spartans by swords.The elites turn the tide with their newly repaired Wraith. The Spartans realized they are about to get hit, and hard. The gates open, and immediatly when the crack is big enough a Scorpians main cannon is fired hitting a group of Elites square on. But before it can get a second shot in the Wraith fires and hits it dead on with the mortar. The Scorpian is highjacked and destroyed but not before getting a shot on the Wraith. SILENT WAR: Spartans are hit by Wraith mortar. Nothing can destroy the Wraith, not even rockets. The Elites had to have modified it somehow.SILENT WAR ENDSEventually Spartans have had enough and begin evacuating the base.Warthogs with Spartans "surfing" on it drive by the battle completely.After only a minute all Spartans where either gone or dead, except 211. He was a true Spartan and stood unafraid of the odds against him. He picked off as many as he could with out them seeing him. But eventually had to retreat to his hiding spot near the sniping tower.

Rogue Leader: Hehehe I knew this day would come. Now search this place and get a sit rep on what's here and any survivors.

If you make it into a machinima, make sure to get decent voice actors to do it justice.

  • 09.12.2009 10:53 PM PDT

Pretty good. The only thing I might change would be the way the Elites talk. They are all about honor so their speech is more sophisticated(?) than regular people talk.

But good, I like it.

  • 09.12.2009 11:02 PM PDT

The way i'm showing the elites are as basically heretics to their kind. The Elites had joined up with humanity and these have decided to stay with the Covenant. In halo 2 have you ever heard the heretic elites? They aren't about honor and they talk normally for the most part. But if i do put in more friendly elites i will try to make them be more about honor.

Meanwhile at a Spartan 3 ODST Basic Training Facility.

Spartan Recruiter Trainer:Come on! Get moving and watch you rear!

Spartan 223: Where is it?

Spartan 224: There it is! I got 'em.

Spartan 224 fires and gets a head shot on a training dummy.

Spartan Recruit Trainer:Congratulations Spartan 223 and 224 you have acheived the rank of Private. Now you will be shipped off to the ODST Vallhalla Training Center. There you will learn to jump off of flying vehicles successfully. Good Luck.

Spartan 223 and 224: Thank you, Sir.

At the Vallhalla Training Center...

Brigadier ODST: Alright, in these three days you will learn to jump off a Hornet successfully. That is all we will learn due to limited time and we will start now.

A Hornet is dropped off by a Pilot Spartan directly behind the Brigadier.

ODST: First lesson, make sure the pilot gives you the green light! If they don't then the altitude isn't safe or the ground is swarming with enemies. Second, both of you should jump at the same time so you hit the ground at the same time and are double a threat. Do i make myself clear?!

Spartan 223 and 224: Sir, yes sir!

In the next three days the two Spartans train to be the best of the best. They have memorized every procedure by heart.

ODST: I sure am proud of you two, and am glad to give you your new ranking of Corporal and your are now official Orbital Drop Shock Troopers.

The two Spartan ODSTs are transferred to Standoff communications center for their first mission.
Spartan Major: I am sure you both know of th
e last resort Spartan run base near New Mombassa. That base was the city's only defense against the Covenant.

223 and 224: Yes sir.

Major: Well it has been overrun by Rogue Elites who still beleive in the Great Journey. They are currently armed with a Ghost, a Prowler, and a Wraith. All vehicles are stolen and are suspected to be damaged.

223: How did we lose a base filled with hundreds of Spartans to only a few Elites?

Major: Well they saw it coming, but they simply couldn't take it. After losing hundreds of Spartans, they evacuated. One did stay though, he acted as a Spartan should, Spartan 211, the main scout of the base. He is still alive because he has been transmitting the Oly Oly Oxen Free since the loss of the base. His service number is 211 he signed up not too long ago. Anyways, about the mission. You will be dropped into the sea and have to swim about a mile until you get to the beachfront. Since it will be a close drop there is no need for a HEV or parachute. We simply modified your suits a little. You will have an extra layer of shielding to cushion your fall although it will only recharge to normal shields. You will also have full active cammo ready to go but will overheat the suit causing complete malfunction after an hour of use. Your arsenal will be small but powerful. Primary weapon: Sub Machine Gun. Secondary: a fuel rod launcher for vehicles and a specialized weapon made to emit a small EMP burst on it's target causing electronics to malfunction. We will provide you with full blue prints of the base to study before your mission tomorrow. Good Luck.

  • 09.18.2009 8:56 PM PDT

Within an hour the Spartan ODSTs are studying the blue prints of the base.

223: Look, they Wraith blew a hole big enough for us to squeeze into a ventilation pipe.

Both 223 and 224 study the plans for the full 23 hours they have in hope of discovering a fool proof plan. Meanwhile at the New Mombassa base...

Rogue Scout: It looks like we have a small amount of Demon resistance. We can kill them easily.

At the shore 5 Spartans come up heavily armed with a Warthog.

Rogue Scout:(Into Radio) We got 2 Demons on foot and 3 in a vehicle. Send in back up.

A fully equipped Prowler comes gliding in, firing at the Spartans.

Warthog Driver: Open fire on that Prowler!

Warthog Gunner: Got it.

Now 2 Spartans on foot pull out Spartan Lasers.

Spartan Laser Spartan 1: Keep 'em distracted!

Driver: Can do!

The driver quickly power slides right by the Prowler and turns around and does it again.

Spartan Laser Spartan 2: I got 'em!


The Spartan Laser finally charges and unleashes its deadly beam upon the Prowler killing all four elites immediately.

Spartan Passenger: This is Gold Team, we may not need that team of ODSTs anyways, we're heading in.

Major: Good Luck, and remember don't get spotted we'll send in two mongooses for your heavy spartans.

Spartan Passenger: We may not have time to, we can escort them up secretly. If they have that Wraith, it is probably on it's way here.

Major: Good Luck then.

Awesome :D only one thing. The olly olly oxefree distress signal is only known by the spartans, and noone else. But that doesnt really matter. This is great man :D keep it up!

PS. The third part of Wildfire of the Covenant is up, can you check it out and tell me what you think?

--- Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter ---

It's a really good idea, but needs a few tweaks. The Elites speech has been said, but if they're Rogue it could kind of work. The Spartans are a little more hardcore than Elites, and wouldn't be overrun if there was hundreds of them, but again, it can still pass judgement. I think the only thing I don't understand is why you call them Spartan ODST's. I'm not exactly a encyclopedia on Halo, but I do know a reasonable amount about it (I've read all the books, completed all the games except for ODST 'cus it's not out yet for me). Anyway, I'm 99.9999% sure that ODST's are a differently trained program/organisation/whateveryouwanttocallthem, and in the book the Master Chief actually accidentally kills 2 odsts in a boxing match. I'm certain he wouldn't do that to another Spartan. Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm just saying what I think.

Fourth part up soon...

[Edited on 10.25.2009 2:53 PM PDT]

  • 09.21.2009 6:32 PM PDT

The Spartans drive up to the gate secretly escorting the Heavy Spartans. The driver gets out trying to find a way around the wall. Suddenly the gates open.

Heavy Spartan: Hide! You guys get you and the Warthog out of here!

Driver: Incoming wraith!

Heavy Spartan 2: Ready to fire! Avoid the plasma mortar!

Driver: Too late! Incoming!

A giant ball of plasma hits the warthog square on the engine. The warthog's engine overloads and explodes. When the wraith comes out of the gates the heavy spartans open fire with everything they got. But it wasn't enough.The wraith aims on them and fires. The mortar hits between them and the force kills them both.

Rogue Leader: They demons have attempted to infiltrate our grounds. It is time to fight back!

Rogue elite: Sir, it would take a week to plan out an attack and organize our followers.

The Rogue Leader throws a punch at the Rogue elite knocking him off his feet.

Rogue Leader: Get them ready now.

The Spartans are now getting ready for their surprise attack. The hornet is just about to take off from Valhalla.

223: Major, anything new about the mission?

Major: Actually yes, we tried to get Gold team, a Spartan III team, into the base. Every Spartan MIA. Mission wise, the plan is drop you off at sea and you'll swim to the shore. Your guns will be right there when you get onto land.

The hornet takes off and once it makes it to the shoreline at the edge of the base the Spartan ODSTs jump. They swim to shore and they find their guns.

224: You ready?

223: Let's go.

its been a while but i've gotten the fifth part done.

224: If we can sneak by the scout, there's a trap door we can go in by.

223: We'll just have to wait for him to move.

Two hours go by, the scout is still there. Then night falls and he's still there.

224: we can't wait much longer. We have to go soon or we'll fail the mission for sure.

223: Alright then, follow my lead.

They sneak across into a small cave that provides little cover from the scou'ts sight.

224:Alright, we can go quick or slow. What do you think?

223: Lets rush quickly and get into the base.

224: Ready, go!

They rush straight by the scout and make it safely into a lower section of the base.

223: Check your corners.

224: This is the medical bay, the largest section of the base.

223: Not anymore, look at all the Honor Guards. This must be the leader's chamber.

Honor Guard: Listen! I heard something, it came from the leader's sleeping chamber.

224: Crap! We're right next to the leader!

223: We have to leave! Now!

They jump back up the trap door and are seen by the scout.

Elite Scout: Look! Two demons, kill them!

224: Lets fall back to the waterfront.

223: No its too late for that. We'll have to hide in the piping. This should cover us.

A blinding light falls over all the Elites in pursuit. By the time it is gone, so are the ODSTs.
