Don't follow in my footsteps; I walk into walls
my 360s blog

a review:
Author;

Your story is facinating: it touches some points of curiosity that haven't been satisfied with the official Halo books, nor the Halo games. The idea is excellent.

Your word structure is flawless, Your character development is good, and you make the story interesting. I would rate this the second best fan-fiction of the Halo sub-catagory, next only to "
The End of a War".

In general, you are one of the few highly talented writers in this catagory. You can spell, you can write interesting stories, and you can stay on your topic of choice.

Congrats! Rated a 98% A.

The Covenant will never win....Unless I play on thier side.

Ill be friends with anyone who 1. Likes Halo games and 2. Hates Sony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Join the UNSC spec ops

A 98% is an A+ but seriously its nice to see an educated response on the forums once in a while. Can you post a link to "The End of a War" so I can read it for myself?

Anyway Rainman when is the next installment coming out? No pressure justr wondering.

0430 Hours, December 19, 2525(Military Calendar)/ Hangar Bay Four of the UNSC cruiser Connecticut

The cavernous hangar bay would normally have been solemn and quiet, but not today. The entire space was crammed with Marines running and shouting and trying to board their Pelicans. The ship’s squadron was doing their best, but this was a momentous job. They had even pulled out some of the archaic Kingfishers. Those ships were older then the men and women who flew them and Lt. Bailey told Simmons the first thing he was going to design was a replacement for the tired old transport ships. The Pelican however was a very new design, and some squadrons in the Navy still didn’t have them. The war with the Covenant would inject some urgency into the adoption process though.
The 89th Drop Jet Platoon was crammed into the two lead Pelicans. The very first to drop. This would provide Simmons and his men with an advantage in finding the best spots to set up shop. At least Simmons was told they were the first Pelicans to go groundside. As he was boarding he heard radio chatter that ‘Blackbird One’ had just left hangar three. Simmons pushed that knowledge to the back of his mind, but if it meant what he thought it meant, then it was good news.
After half an hour of sitting in ready birds waiting for the go code, the first flight of Pelicans took off. They flew in a rough ‘V’ pattern and left the gaping whole in the side of the ship. Then, out the cabin view port, Simmons saw the entire fleet. Some twenty battle ships, and two cruisers besides the Connecticut. It was an enormous amount of human technology to be amassed in such a small area. The system’s single sun shone its yellow light off the hulls of the ships so that Simmons had to cover his eyes to keep looking. Some fifty other Pelicans were on their way from their ships to the planet. This force might just have a chance of taking on a Covenant invasion. That is if they even bothered to leave their ships.
The rest of the men in the Pelican’s cabin were taking advantage of the last few peaceful minutes before reentry to catch up on their sleep. That’s all right Marines, Simmons thought. Sleep away. I’m here to watch your backs. And with that he went back to admiring the serenity outside his window.
The planet below was a giant blue-green dinner plate to Simmons. Little swirls of clouds covered the oceans like cotton balls. In the main ocean, a large hurricane began forming but by the time it reached land, there would be no one to care. Over the next thirty seconds the planet below grew larger and larger until the continent filled the entire view port. Final approaches from miles up are not fun to watch from a Pelican’s cabin window, so Simmons sat down and strapped himself in.

I'm working on it but I'm taking my time for this section. It'll be worth your wait.


Come on skip. It's ok if you give us pitifully short chapters once a week but don't get our hopes up.

Hey rainman i have to tell you just 1 thing....WOOOOOOOO. I stumbeld across this thread a few days ago at first i tohugth it would be just another 5 year olds nock off of the halo novels but after the first chapter i new i was in the right place. I love how you follwed the story line and the writing style of the halo novels it gave your story that added realizem many people jsut cant achive in there fan ficton. I also loved how you coupled a odst platoon with the spartans its shows us the spartans aretn the only 1s in this war and they need allies to help them threw. Some of the things id like to see in this story would be more of the marines whooping ass but also receivng ass whoopins as well as a key point in war is both sides take major losses theres no super man in war and theres more then 1 thign that dished out damage tanks infantry troop carriers aircraft various ground veichels extra extra. SAdly most people now adays have 1 or 2 people utterly destroying anotehr side very unreal and very boring but in your case both sides are getting it ( the halo novels did a real good job of makeing the spartans good but also makeign them human where they die get wounded and make mistakes) and so did you. Thats the best kind of story the realalistic kind. Also id love to see some hunters in this story line and them destroying alot!! as the only thhing better then a spartan isa a hunter!! lol. (also every 1 out there trying to find blemishes in his writing do stop this man obvisouly has done his homework and nows a good deal of info in the halo universe and backs it up with direct links to the book) there is 1 thing i cant quite put togther thought whats up with the 23 air squadren and the nova battel cruiser where are these divisons fitting in?? (and 1 more tihng haha if you everwrite another halo related story plz do write about a pelican squadren in the halo universe as there so vitial to the story line yet very littel is told about them and there crews and i better be able to fly a pelican in halo 3 because iv been wantign to since i laid eyes on 1 lol)

Also in addition to my long paragraph above lol im sad to see theres no refrences to the 87TH ODST CORPS or there areil landing team the 87th SKY GURDIANs. Designed as a main support group until the main reforcment divisons can group and comemeance there battel plans on the enemy. Heavily relied on during the invasion of earth. but littel was told of them during the game sadly...... you see pictures of them in the halo 2 prerelease trailors where you see mariens lieing every where hurt and in the medic tents..... theres the true heros the men that put there lives on the line only as a decoy as a delay line until we could get it togther to push them back altohguth they where not in there tarditional armour of the odst ackwardly enoguth :).
