Barxin Cont'd

out then leaving him here for dead. But he couldn’t Matthew was breathing pretty heavy but he managed to say weakly, “Barxin, Mother wouldn’t like you doing this…” Barxin scoffed disrespectfully “Mother’s dead Brother she isn’t here now is she?” Barxin had a point but that wasn’t going to stop him from completing the plan.

“Hey I’ll tell you something, if you can think it over since you have Geostigma I’ll let you join the New Earth” “NEVER” Matthew shouted in Barxin face. Barxin sighed and shot Matthew 8 times in the chest he could here his breathing slow down. He didn’t have the time to wait for him to die he had a plan to accomplish. Before he went he picked up Matthew’s visor and put it on his head showing some sort of respect.

Barxin walked towards a nearby Phantom and hopped inside of it and flew off to Earth. Matthew was left for dead on the remains of High Charity. Matthew’s mind went white he felt as if he was falling through a white abyss. His body slowly reached the bottom he could see faces; they were the faces of his friends! They came into a clearer image and they revealed themselves. Sam put a hand on Matthew’s forehead and Greg and Josh stood by his side.

“Looks like you aren’t dead yet” Greg said smiling. “You still have some time before you reach were are, that is if you want to die..” Josh said. “Looks like you don’t belong here, you have quite a bit to get here” Sam said. They all said together “Goodbye Matthew…” everything went black and Matthew was plunged into utter darkness.


Barxin pilot his Phantom with ease he had reached the Earth’s atmosphere and landed in a nearby base it was Delta so he landed into it. The Marines and Helljumpers there automatically assumed it was Matthew so they pilled around the Phantom waiting for him to get out. When he did get out all the Marines and Helljumpers applauded for his safe arrival that is until he removed his helmet. Blonde hair and a perfect grin replaced the would be Matthew.

Everyone there gasped in shock then raised their weapons to their shoulders. “Who the hell are you!” A Marine said. Barxin smirked then took a step forward a Sergeant looked at the crest on his MJONIR armor “You, you’re the GRU commander your codename is Spetznatz (s-pet-z-naast)” Barxin started clapping “Very good you catch on quick don’t you?” “What do you want!” a Marine said from the crowd. “I came here to rid the cosmos of fools like you!” Barxin shouted.

“Spetznaz, it was a group of biologically enhanced Spartan II’s that ran rampant through out the Earth then tried to take it over most of them were killed but now that I think of it there is only 3 off them left” Barxin laughed loudly “Good job on finding that out!”

He raised a hand towards them the raised it in the air. Within seconds the skies went dark and then he took out an energy sword and rushed forwards.

That’s when Matthew’s mind returned back to reality

Stage Thirteen


Remembrance
High Charity
???

Matthew’s mind jumped back to reality but he was pinned under thousands of pounds of rubble. With one solid powerful blow he punched the building’s remains away from him they fell far away from him and shattered on the ground sending asphalt and debris into the air. Matthew laid his head back on the crumbled wall; he had moved the debris from him now all he needed to do was to get up. He reached a hand up in the air and groaned someone or something pulled him up!

Blinded by the shock of getting up he gazed at the person. It was Samantha! Before he said anything he rubbed his eyes the image faded into nothingness. “It was just a crazy hallucination for a second…” Matthew voice faded. His visor was cracked the HUD flickered in an poor attempt to function his MJONIR armor was trying it’s best to function. Normally after reading the history of the MJONIR armor it was said to be virtually indestructible.

Apparently this isn’t true it never said about MJONIR to MJONIR contact. An enormous crack spread across Matthew’s chest to his left arm that where Barxin had punched him with extraordinary force. There was a shiny surface which Matthew used as a mirror his Mark VI armor was in terrible shape there was no way he could face Barxin like this he would be luck if he made it back to Earth alive.

“Sometimes I wonder why I still alive”

Matthew chuckled to himself he located his BR55 and slung it he also located his M6D holstered it then finally found his energy sword and sniper rifle. Everything worked except for the energy sword it flickered as Matthew tried to turn it on. He agreed to himself he would work on it later so he holstered it. Matthew walked around High Charity in needs on some transportation back to Earth.

He finally came upon a heavily armed ascended Phantom. He got inside of it and took a chip out of his head and slid it into the pilot’s interface. “Please work for me” he whispered to himself. A figure wearing Marine fatigues appeared on the screen. Matthew let out a long sigh of relief, it was Nacturn she said me Matthew “How have you been? Did you miss me?” “More than ever!” Matthew exclaimed.

“Sit back let me drive I know exactly what your thinking” Nacturn said starting up the Phantom. Matthew slowly nodded his head “This thing looks like a low class cruiser!” “Yeah your suit looks beat up I’ve got new updates from UNSC that you might find really useful step into that chamber” Nacturn said quietly pointing to a fairly large room.

Remembrance Cont’d

That the thing with this Phantom it’s not ordinary it’s big enough to fool even the smartest Marine into thinking it’s a cruiser. But basically it’s small on the outside and quite large on the inside. Matthew stepped into the slightly purple room machines, which Nacturn activated, started to repair Matthew armor. It removed the large crack and gave it a new coat of green and fixed up his visor giving him a much denser lens.

It also gave Matthew a crest on his left chest it was a BR55 with all the faces of Matthew’s friends as a skin. The HUD sparked to life but it wasn’t blue this time it was red with a combo of black. The radar was black and the ammo and grenades counter were a combo of red and black.

Matthew also received for his suit a higher tolerance for his Geostigma the acid would no longer burn through the armor leaving gaping holes in his arms. And the special ablitliy, which he now renamed “Geosma” adapted to the suit entirely he, could use the full extent of his powers and not break a sweat in the new amour. Next his chainsaw gun appeared in front of him with a serial number on it.

“MHC11A1—Power Rifle”

He said to himself. I guess due to the statistics he had earned fighting Big Boss with this weapon the UNSC had registered it as a high-class weapon and made a mass production of it. Matthew gazed at the saw part of it “Solid titanium; diamond tipped blades” he muttered. A targeting reticule appeared once he grasped the weapon the reticule was an arc with a jagged circle in the middle.

A computer message inside the HUD “Welcome to the Mark VII armor system” Matthew eyes widened his mouth dropped then finally shouted “MARK VII!!!” he was excited in tested the newly acquired suit out. The update was complete it seems Earth’s forces have not forgotten about Matthew. He stepped out of the room and sat back into the chair they had reached Earth and it was time to get cold revenge on Barxin.

They landed at Delta base there were very few Marines there they all had there guns pointed at the Phantom. When Matthew touched base with the ground the Marines fired at him but he dived behind cover “What’s gotten into them?!” he said to himself. “Guys! It’s me!” before he could say another word a grenade landed beside him. “Damn!” he dived out of the way.

An ear-piercing command made the Marine spot firing “HOLD YOUR FIRE!!” Nacturn shouted. The command made even Matthew hold his head in pain. Matthew removed his helmet exposing his face. “Sir!” A Marine started he ran up towards Matthew. “Sorry about that we thought you were him..” “Who?” Matthew enquired. The Marine whom Matthew was talking to had a slight Australian accent he was about as tall as Matthew but appeared to where as near a strong.

Remembrance Cont'd

“The guy who just passed by here not to long ago didn’t you see ‘im?” Matthew shook his head. A Sergeant Marine who was missing a arm limped his way towards Matthew he choked as he tried to speak “He was with Spetnaz said his name was Barxin” Matthew’s heart was struck with fear. Barxin had been here?! Matthew gazed over Delta base the base itself was thankfully in great shape but the outside was different where were large holes dismembered body parts and dead Marines laying limp on the ground.

“Sir?” the Marine asked. “Oh sorry, Barxin he’s close he has murdered countless amount of civilians and military men I have to stop him!” “Sir let me come with you I know I won’t be much help though!” the Marine said. “I’m sorry but I’ve lost too many dear friends your best suited here”

“But--” “That an order soldier!” Matthew said sternly. He spied a warthog not far from the base it was flipped over. He ran over to it and turned it over he hopped into the driver’s seat.

He sensed Barxin was close he headed over to a rebuild Gamma totally redesigned and remastered that when he when though the door he saw dead bodies everywhere and lone person standing in the middle.

Barxin

Stage Fourteen

What Going ON?!
Gamma Base
???

Barxin turned around from the carnage he had created towards Matthew. He had a slight grin on his face somehow wherever he when whoever he met soon after there would be death. The bodies looked like they had been torn apart completely there were gunshot wounds in heads and in chests assuming there deaths were quick and painless. Gamma was technically still under construction only those of a high military status may enter otherwise the area was off limits.

There was nearly no improvement other than the roof still missing from the explosion of the nuclear bomb. Walls were tarnished with lead stains fire scorches and dents in them the black clouds which Barxin had summoned not to long ago still remained giving the encounter a gloomy feeling. Matthew throat went dry trying to say something but Barxin spoke before him.

“Back for more huh?”

Matthew got a feeling in his gut saying he should say something quick the dryness of his throat was gone. “No” Barxin scoffed “You came here to defeat me?” Matthew’s body started to glow a slight shade of red the ground started to rumble and tiny pieces of debris started to rise around him. “I didn’t come to beat you I came to kill you!!!” Matthew said enraged.

With that he bursted forward completely catching Barxin off-guard he didn’t have a reaction to the incredible speed his brother seemingly out of nowhere acquired. Matthew sent a strong into Barxin’s gut the momentum combined with the sheer force of Matthew’s kick sent Barxin flying though two walls and outside on the cold hard pavement. The metal of his MJONIR armor scratched against it making sparks erupt from his back.

Barxin was paralyzed of the blow it knocked the wind out of him he was trying desperately to get air in his lungs. Meanwhile Matthew was seen walking through a cloud of black smoke with a red-blue energy sword somehow it was working and adapting to the power of Geosma! For the first time in his life Barxin was terrified of Matthew’s approach he finally got air into his lungs and sprung into action.

Matthew deactivated his energy sword and walk towards him unarmed he intended to rip Barxin apart with his bare hands. The sky was a pale gray with sunlight trying its best to shine through. Barxin rushed forwards and punched Matthew but he held up a fist and blocked the blow. Mark VII armor was far denser than Mark VI armor so Matthew tightened his fist ever so slowly. To Barxin’s surprise his armor began to crack the paint, on the armor was being chipped of by the pressure.

What's Going ON!?

Barxin tried his other hand the same fate awaited it Matthew send another power kick to his chest this time. Barxin felt it, it was if the hooves of a donkey struck his bare chest, the impact sent him hurtling across the ground scraping his Mark VI armor severely he came to stop when the speed of the fall had be interrupted by a solid wall.

How can he be so strong?! In such a short time period??

Those were some of Barxin’s frantic thoughts he was virtually struggling to survive. Matthew took out his Power Rifle he was going to end this once and for all he was going to rid himself of the darkness that lay dormant within him. He activated the chainsaw Barxin heard it while still pinned on the ground he rolled out of the way to avoid it. The chainsaw ripped through a Warthog it soon exploding sending huge chunks of metal in every direction.

The chainsaw’s sound intensified meaning it was gaining power Matthew ran to Barxin and kicked him one final time and threw the chainsaw at him while still in midair it chewed right through his softened armor and tore out some of his insides leaving a trail of blood on the ground. Barxin collapsed on the ground writhing in pain he had lost. He tried to get up but the pain kept on coming Matthew took out his M6D and removed his helmet.

He pressed the gun against Barxin’s head; he could get back at him for all the things he had done to him. He could kill him right now but something was holding him back telling him not to. So he listened to that voice in his head and gave mercy towards him he stood up and walked away. For all he knew Barxin was finished there was no way he could make it out of this mess alive he had lost a lot of blood.

In the back of Matthew’s mind he could of killed Barxin and crushed any will of him fighting anymore. Before Matthew could get far enough out of though Barxin started to laugh and cough up blood at the same time. “They- didn’t tell you the truth did they?” he choked. That got Matthew’s attention “Truth?” he asked “What truth?” “I didn’t plan on turning this into a history lesson but ok. I’ll tell you”

Matthew now was all ears; he lowered his gun knowing Barxin had only limited strength to even talk. “Long ago when you were still a subject to no Spartan program you and I were members of the Spetznaz unit” Matthew couldn’t believe what he was hearing he must have been lying. “But you were young and stupid you were reluctant on joining the group and more concerned on getting revenge on the Covenant”

“You became a Spartan but the augmentations must of messed with your head altering the memories of the past” Barxin laughed evilly and said, “That’s not all part of you resides in me if you kill me you will die in the process allow me to demonstrate” Barxin reached a free arm and placed it on his heart he sent a jolt of electricity from his hands into his heart. His whole body shook almost immediately after this action Matthew felt the same pain and was forced to drop his weapon and clutch his heart in pain.

What’s Going ON?! Cont’d

“You bastard…!” Matthew said weakly. “Heh.Heh. That means that no matter where you go or what you do you cannot get rid of me without destroying yourself!” Barxin said trying to recover his breath. “That may be so but know this Barxin…” Matthew stated “I will find a way to destroy you even if I have to kill myself in the process!” With that said and done he raced back to his Warthog and got in.

The words of Barxin still echoed through his head he couldn’t get them out. He knew Barxin would still be alive he would wait for the perfect moment to kill himself taking Matthew out. The thought of trying to get rid of him baffled Matthew; they couldn’t work together and one of them had to stay alive. He could only keep Barxin away from causing to much damage but he would never be able to kill him permanently.

Barxin was pure evil there was no way he would be able to work with Matthew unless.. Matthew turned the car around and sped to where Barxin lay bleeding he was fighting for his life. Matthew walked towards him with a can of biofoam and shoved into the wound and squeezed the can. The liquid quickly solidified the blood clotting it, he then took a medical wrap and a band-aid he applied them as needed then yanked Barxin to his feet.

He choked and said “W-Why are you helping me?” Matthew chucked the same way as Barxin does and said “Because part of me is within you so looks like I have to look after you for a while” He took one of Barxin’s arms and slung it over his back he limped to the Warthog, “One day…I will kill you but for now I guess we’ll have to join forces” Barxin said to Matthew. “I understand” He carefully laid Barxin in the passenger seat.

Matthew got in the driver seat and started the Warthog the engine stalled for a minute then started up. He drove along the bumpy road to Alpha Base when they had reached there Marines and ODST saw them get out of the Warthog they armed there weapons. Matthew held up a hand for a sign to hold fire.

“He need medical attention” Matthew quickly said. “But Sir he’s with Spetznaz!’ A Marine said never taking his finger off the trigger. “I DON’T CARE!” Matthew roared frightening the Marine. “This is more than a wounded soldier, he’s my brother” Matthew said solemnly. All the Marines gasped and were stunned a Marine from the far back of the entrance to the back fired his M6C shouting, “Traitor!!!”

Matthew’s shields barely went down from the poorly aimed weapon. Another Marine quickly tackled the Marine to the ground. “Err--G-Get off of me!!” a hand covering his mouth quickly silenced cries of the Marine. “If you kill him you kill me” Matthew said. “It’s hard to explain but somehow this man embodies all the darkness within me.” This was a true fact- when they were born they almost looked the same but somehow Barxin was every thing Matthew hated and was the “Darkness” inside of him that lay dormant.

Matthew wiped a running drip of sweat off his eyebrow and proceeded into the ER room of Alpha they placed Barxin on a stretcher and examined him they were amazing that Matthew wasn’t lying. Barxin’s cellular makeup even showed resemblance to him yet the personality was the complete opposite. Matthew walked towards his brother who was on the stretcher. “Okay..” he started folding his arms.

Let’s get you fixed up

Well guys after the long wait the Prologue for Spartans In Arms is finally here! I hope you enjoy it the very first Phase of SIA will be released on February 3rd 2007. I hope you enjoy this:)

Edit:For those who are just reading this consider reading The Lone Soldier before this or this may reveal some major spoilers!
----------------------------------------------------------

Prologue

I gripped my BR55 tightly then slowly moved down the foul smelling hall. I instructed my squad to stay put as I moved in. Elite's bodies were littered about the hall the foul smell was the blood of many Elites slaughtered by possibly Brutes. There was an small bright light at the end of the dark hall I gave a signal for Gredome,Sam and Greg to follow. I ran to the end of the light when I had reached the source of the light I could see daylight and a barren desert littered with thousand of metal scraps on the ground.

I walked inside the middle of the area. No sign of any Brutes I thought but my thoughts were in vain as Ghosts and Wraiths quickly surrounded me and my squad. An brute that was wearing gold armor came out of the Wraith and stood in front of it. I held up my BR55 ready to squeeze the trigger. The brute merely huffed and said to me "This human....is where you meet your death!"

With that he hopped on the top of his Wraith and gave a loud roar. All the remaining vehicles revved up their weaponry and was ready to take me out. I smiled behind my visor and said:

If there is one this I know about myself is that I am no stranger to war!



I wanted to make the following gramatical suggestions to you since you obviously worked hard on this awesome story. The following sentences are gramatically incorrect and should be reworked:

Elite's bodies were littered about the hall the foul smell was the blood of many Elites slaughtered by possibly Brutes (Missing a comma or an and)

There was an small bright light at the end of the dark hall I gave a signal for Gredome,Sam and Greg to follow. (Missing some commas and punctuation)

I ran to the end of the light (.)

I walked inside the middle of the area (doesnt sound good. Maybe....I walked to the middle of the room that I entered or I began my walk to the middle of the field that I now found myself in.....or something)

An brute that was wearing gold armor came out of the Wraith and stood in front of it. (Improper use of the word "An")

All the remaining vehicles revved up their weaponry and was ready to take me out. (Improper use of the word "was." Also, I would rework that sentence)

Also watch your tenses and paragraphs and you may wish to switch from first and third person as first person becomes tedious.

Stage Fifteen

Revitalized
Alpha Base Interior
Regular Status
Unknown Time

The doctors now realizing what Matthew said began to operate on Barxin. He looked at the ceiling and closed his eyes, the doctors began to repair his broken bones they used power tools such as drills screwdrivers and so on. They did this because of the increased bone structure Barxin has compared to a regular human. They also stitched up his chainsaw wound that Matthew had brutality inflicted. The doctors worked quickly like a person who had just overdosed on a wakeup pill in a few minutes Barxin was ready to go.

He rolled out of the bed and put his shirt on, a bulletproof vest and his belt, which had 2 M6C holsters and a combat knife sheath. All of the weapons were intact and this was without is MJONIR armor! He no longer had a limp in his leg and the wound in his abdomen had been sewed up. He motioned for Matthew to follow him and he did they reached a small room that Barxin had the sliding doors lock.

“I need to talk to you” he insisted.

“What?” Matthew asked. “About saying I would kill you all those years…” Barxin said regretfully.

“Yeah what about it?” Matthew said.

“I’ve…become a different person I can’t kill you when I was being repaired I thought about it…. You will die if you kill me but the only way you can get rid of me for good is if I become a part of you” Barxin insisted looking Matthew straight in the eye.

“How…can you do that??” Matthew said slightly afraid.

“By letting me diminish into your being, I am part of you of course” Barxin said eagerly.

Suddenly a extremely loud crash which actually made Matthew jump was heard. A marine rushed outside to check out the noise but was quickly impaled on very familiar spikes. He gasped for air then slowly began loosing sight until he went totally limp. Before Matthew even had time to think a third of the building was whipped out by the most unpredicted enemy. Big Boss.

Matthew glared at the enormous being “I thought he was DEAD!!” he shouted. Marines quickly poured through the hall opening fire onto the enormous beast there attacks were futile in fact it only make Big Boss even more angry! He whipped an huge tentacle and swiped the Marines into wall as if they were no more stronger than a common house fly. A Marine crashed upside down behind Matthew then landed on his arm there was a really

loud snapping sound. The next thing was unpredicted the Marine wailed out in pain screaming his arm was broken, Matthew seeing all the commotion, went to see the wounded Marine. It was worse than he thought; the bone had pierced the skin and was basically dangling from the wound. Barxin nudged Matthew to find a quick hiding spot as the room they were hiding in was about to be stormed.

A flood combat form has entered the room it easily picked up the Marine by the neck. The Marine squirmed and fidgeted with his dying breath he chocked “Do-do it!! You ugly son of a--” his sentence was cut of my the snapping of his neck. The weapon in his hand a M6C fell from his dead hands. The combat form threw the corpse effortlessly away from him; it landed next to Matthew.

Matthew pulled out his combat knife and charged the combat form dead on he succeeding in ramming the blade into it’s chest. It staggered backwards then slumped on the cold ground. Dead. Big Boss was just outside knowing they wouldn’t be able to take him separately Matthew and Barxin decided on there original deal. Barxin tilted his head backwards and his matter dissolved into Matthew.

“I feel” Matthew started. A golden aurora and a blinding flash erupted from the room catching Big Boss’s attention he swiped the room crushing the walls that surrounded it. There was no one there so Big Boss retracted it’s tentacle but Matthew was on it! He jumped off with amazing force to a safer area. For a brief moment he got the chance to look at himself he had jet-black flawless hair with blonde streaks.

His agility and strength apparently seemed to double what he originally had he also could set levels in it Geosma phase: Minimum Normal and Maximum. He felt great, all the power without a care he rushed towards his next opponent. He stood there looking at the massive creature that was in front of the base; it was truly a spectacular sight. Matthew focused his mind his would need most of strength to out smart the beast. He sprang forward launching himself towards it. Airborne.

Matthew whipped out his M90 ready cocked. As he flew towards Big Boss it tried to take a swipe at him and missed Matthew used the tentacle to use it as a platform. Regaining his speed and balance he leaped towards its head. On he had reached the head his fired a round into the side of it’s neck. An ear piercing roar followed; another tentacle tried to get Matthew off but he slid around the other side of its neck he would of fired but he realized only shooting it point blank would only anger it.

Finally Matthew looked to the armory there were bomb and lots of them the floor was littered of them. He would dismount Big Boss and race to get them but it was too risky it a last ditch effort he reached his arm and attempted to grab it but it was way too far away. Suddenly he felt a force in his hands the bomb was moving towards him until the point where he had caught it in his hands.

Matthew was completely baffled by the act, had he discovered his newfound power? Only time will tell in the mean time he had to destroy Big Boss once and for all. He tore a hole in Big Boss’ flesh and activated the bomb he placed it into the inside of the beast and ran like hell. His speed now noticing had increased dramatically over the change he would now run as fast as a full throttled Warthog; running almost full speed he dodged a few obstacles in his path. He heard loud footsteps behind him he spun around still maintaining his speed. Big Boss was attempting to run after Matthew, trying to take him out in the blast.

Matthew, now realizing this new threat ran nearly as fast as he could completely leaving Big Boss behind. After a safe distance from the blast Matthew turned around to watch the following effect. Big Boss exploded into four parts: Ash, dust, flesh, and body parts. It wasn’t the brightest thing to see but Matthew was glad to have Big Boss out of his life. Pieces of Big Boss landed harmlessly beside Matthew.

But something went terribly wrong Big Boss’ body part started to fuse and the infection viral form and Matthew’s DNA, from a blood sample began to fuse together. This remained Matthew of Barxin the way he came back there was a bright flash which required Matthew to shield his eyes. When he looked back there was but a lone replica of himself only in jet-black armor. Matthew knew what was coming another form of him that wasn’t willing to hold back on killing him.

He thought to himself why is it always him who wants to be killed. He looked up at the figure it was gone but his scanner identified it’s ridiculously fast movement and warned Matthew of an incoming attack. He jumped out of the way landing on a nearby destroyed cement platform.

“This thing is fast!”

Matthew said out loud. His scanner in his Mark VI armor I.D’d the life form it was a parasitic virus codenamed “X” if attached to a host the X invaded the body absorbing the DNA killing the host in the process. For the moment there was no immunity to this virus or life form. The computer in Matthew’s visor also named it the MR-X codename for Matthew Richards X. At the moment Matthew is no match for the MR-X he’ll have to do something do delay the hunt this thing is putting on.

Matthew tried to fight it. Bad move. He threw a punch directly at it’s face it vanished into thin air. A red WARNING signal appeared on Matthew screen pointing to the left, Matthew quickly dodge rolled to the opposite direction. The MR-X looked exactly like Matthew except there was one difference, there was no emotion showed through the MR-X and by saying that it’s a killing machine.

A info screen popped up on Matthew’s screen he jumped to a safer spot to read it. It was info about the X it reads:

Revitalized Cont’d

Message from: UNSC Science Labs
Absolutely Top Secret
Opening Message…

The gelatinous X-parasites invade and rapidly reproduce, killing the host. They also absorb DNA and use it to mimic it’s host most of the very few who encountered this foe nicknamed it “Copycat” There is no vaccine to cure an X who has fused with it’s host there is a very low chance of survival for the host. Incoming Transmission

A projection appeared on the screen it was a leader of a squad from a Strike Team of the UNSC. “Sir, it appears the flood vaccine that you were injected with just before you entered the room with the combat form flood has totally bonded to your cellular makeup. Now if I get this right infections forms or the flood entirely will eat anything with efficient biomass so that means that the if an X tries to get into your cellular makeup the flood vaccine will not only reject the intruder but will absorb in into your body.

This will be making you stronger and restoring any wounds your have. This is remarkable… I’ve never seen anything like it the X is truly a fascinating specimen especially this MR-X. But I digress your main objective is to annihilate the MR-X otherwise this thing could get out of control and run rampant around the Earth one by one every region shall be overcome by the X making Earth a truly uninhabitable place. For now the UNSC has hastily made new weapons that you can grab at the nearest bases. All right that’s what I have to say and one more thing. Don’t die!”

The transmission ended and Matthew stood up from his crouching position. His brain throbbed with information he has never heard of the X and now he knows everything about them. The MR-X charged up from the right with a Chain Rifle Matthew ducked the swipe barely missing his head and sent a strong kick to the chest the MR-X flew backwards spinning in the air. It took out an M6D and fired at Matthew he managed to dodge it but he was running out of steam he had to retreat before he actually got hurt.

He ran back to the parking lot he searched for his car it was nowhere to be found. “Not good..” Matthew said frantically still looking. His eyes gazed upon a mongoose modified to look more like a motorcycle than a four-wheeler. He ran over to it and hopped on, he immediately revved up the engine. He blasted out of the area leaving a trail of dust behind him. Driving across the desert and dry plains of Africa he thought to himself what the future of mankind would be like if he could stop that killing machine.

He shuddered at the fact of even thinking that. The next base, which Matthew had never been to before was codenamed Omega, his visor had scanned it from a 8 minutes pre-arrival. He parked the Mongoose in a small corner then proceeded inside. It was a rather quiet place where people were constantly moving. Mattthew took the time to stop and look around when someone who called out his codename number caught his attention. “Mr. Richards Sir!” the man said strongly. “Please this way” he motioned into a small room.

It was time for a quick upgrade

-Sorry for the long delay this ones very long!-

Stage Sixteen

Locust Horde
Omega’s Weapons Lab
Regular Status
Half Past 3pm

Upon entering the research lab Matthew gazed upon the weaponry, some he hadn’t even see before yet alone recognise some were advanced models of weapons he had seen from before such a the BR55 Battle Rifle. He continued to follow the man to the middle of the room until the man stopped. He began “This one of the top bases the UNSC admires basically saying that we have all the good weapons and the advances one now what I am about to show you is one of the MOST powerful weapons in UNSC history they just finished developing it 3 weeks ago”

The man turned to a computer panel and punched in a few numbers a security panel was lifted and release the weapon. It was not like any other weapon it had its own distinctive look to it very catching to the eye indeed. Matthew reached out for the weapon then finally grasped it in his hands. He suddenly has the unbearable urge to test this thing. He looked frantically around the room for something to fire at.

His eyes finally rested on a target he aimed down the sight and began to pull down on the trigger but the scientist pulled his hands down from his line of fire. “Hey what are you doing?? Do you even know what this thing will do to that wall?!?!” the man yelled. Matthew reared his head back then spoke quietly “Put a dent in it…” The man gave a long sigh then rubbed his head he took Matthew outside to a shooting range.

He pointed to a cardboard cut-out of a Brute that was looking fiercely at Matthew ready to fire. “Shoot that..” he said. Matthew did just that he raised the weapon and looked down the sight and fired. What he had expected didn’t turn out in his favour the recoil was the first to come it made him stagger backwards and raise his hand in the air. The shot didn’t even hit the target it hit the brick wall making the whole the size of 3 full grapefruits.

Staring blankly at the wall and his now trembling hands Matthew was in total shock. Such power. Sheer brute force was enough but how would he even control the weapon?

But for his sake he would have to learn quickly because the MR-X could strike anytime at anyplace. He got a transmission from HQ they told him to go straight NY because the MR-X will most likely take out the highest position of power: The United States Of America.

Matthew acted quickly he found an extra pelican and loaded his motorcycle in the back then lifted off. He activated the turbo on the pelican and in about 5 minutes he was in the heart of NY: Brooklyn New York. He landed in a nearby base which he didn’t not know of then unloaded his motorcycle and sped off.

The signal was coming from a street not to far from Matthew’s position. He drove for a little while then saw the MR-X chasing a girl who had a pistol in her hands. Matthew lifted up the bike a pushed with force causing the bike to act as a projectile and knocked the MR-X down. Matthew grabbed the girl by the hand and led her to a safe area.

“Who are you?” she asked slowly backing away from Matthew. “And what was that thing?” Matthew removed his helmet and said “My name is Matthew according to the UNSC you’re the only survivor of the massacre in this area” “Yes, that’s right….” She said. “And looking back at the message I am assign to protect you until further notice, now lets go I think it’s getting back up” He said standing up. “Wait!” she said. “Now what?” “My name’s Ashley”

“Well now that we know each other let’s go” Matthew said leading the way. Matthew back to the area the MR-X was gone but the bike was still in good condition. He mounted it and revved up the engine Ashley got onto the back. He sped off “So what was that thing?” Ashley yelled over the bike. “Well it’s hard to explain let’s just say it’s a copy of me; only heartless and likes to kill”

“Do you know how to use one of these?” Matthew pulled out an SMG from a holster in the bike. “Yes!” she said. “Good then we won’t have a problem then!” Matthew raced along the street before he saw something shocking another MR-X aimed a Battle Rifle at him and fired the round took down his shields a little but he drove right past it.
