VinWarrior Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 If you haven't signed up here: http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/30809-halo-requiemrp-signup/ Then you cannot post here yet, go ahead and post if you have signed up and I have approved you. Anyway, we will start. It had been four years, four long years, since Taylor could hold a gun, and not drop to the floor crying, or even bare to watch someone die by his hand. It had taken a mental toll on him, some even went as far as saying he should be put in an psychological facility, or decommissioned, Taylor hadn't seen the men and women he helped get off Reach in years, John, Tyler, Ike, Ashley... None of them... Taylor is back on duty, and so is the Covenant, and it is going to be hard, but we must try to push them back... Taylor stared out his window on the Infinity, he looked around him, it was a small room, kind of like on Reach, his flashbacks seemed to grow evermore in length and vastness, he started to experience things that didn't make much sense. He had two bunks, one for him, and one for another Spartan IV, and today, was going to be a hell of a day, Taylor just didn't know it yet, all of a sudden, the lights went out, as an Orange glow pierced the ship, it formed a symbol, like one of the symbols in his visions, and flowed swiftly through the ship, as it started to become pulled in the spherical silver planet that they were heading for, as the ship rocked, some emergency lights flickered on, Taylor dropped everything and ran out of the room, as he passed by multiple soldiers, he was running for the Armory, he wanted to grab a gun, and fast. He pulled open the locker, inside it was multiple pictures of him and his wife, and Jacob's dog-tag, recovered by the UNSC, and of course, a small, Magnum, Taylor pulled it out and cocked it back, when out of no-where, BOOM! Taylor fell to the floor, the gun still in his hand, he picked himself up, as sirens could be heard, he started walking slowly back to his room, keeping his magnum steady, as he opened a door, an Elite rushed head-on into him, knocking him to the floor, as the elite snarled in his face, Taylor shot it, about six times, sending it back, but it's shields were still up, he needed help, he called, "Somebody who's got a gun, get over here, I got a Gator! Please!" as the elite snickered and pulled out his energy sword. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycaoni Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Ashley heard someone calling for help, he sounded farmiliar but she put that out of her head. she rushed toward the man requesting assistance, and saw an elite standing over a spartan. she fired her BR 3 times into its head, lowering its sheilds, and it ran. she shot it in the back another time before it got around the corner, but she had saved the spartan. she offered him her hand asking "you ok?"

VinWarrior Posted August 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Taylor dusted off his shoulder, and said nonchalantly, "Yeah, I'm fi-" but he was cut off when he looked at her, he stuttered back up as he said, "A- Ash? Is... Is that you?" as he smiled. But it wasn't the best time for a reunion, they had to go, Taylor had gotten to his window, they were a little far above the ground, but a well placed jump could get them safe, Taylor whipped out his bloody Kurki, and cut open the side of the room, as it fell to the jungle floor with a clang, Taylor closed his eyes and jumped, as he landed, he rolled on the floor, coughing up dirt and blood, and he picked himself up, he could see carnage taking place, Scorpion tanks were defending the ship from covenant infantry, they needed to assist in this before they could try for the armory to suit up, Taylor ran behind a scorpion tank, firing off rounds at Storm grunts, as the infantry began to become mowed down by hornets, they had cleared the way, the scorpions began moving up, as Taylor jumped on top of one, he knocked on the glass, as he opened the cockpit of the tank, he spoke, "Hey buddy, feel like telling me where the machines are? You know, the ones that put you in armor?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDM Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) Once Ike finally got there in his camo, thinking it was a good time to test out his stealth, The problem was resolved. "Gee, This camo really slows me down, Cant walk without it going, Sorry, But you can be seen now. Stupid camo..." Ike was still rocking the good old ODST look, Hasnt changed a bit. Ike gave the thumbs up to the soldier. "So Ash, Whos the new guy?" Ike said. Edited August 17, 2013 by The Dumb Marine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconShelf Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) Mal rushed to where the shouts came from. He'd already started to charge his medical field before realising there was no point. He readied his Assault Rifle, peering down the scope at the hallway. An explosion rocked the ship, the lights went out temporarily before being replaced with red emergency lighting. "All Spartan Fireteams report to Deck Twenty-Two. Fireteams BANSHEE, CANYON and PHOENIX assist repelling boarders in hangar A-13." Blared the speaker as the ship came to life. He headed to the hangar in question to meet up with the rest of Phoenix before he saw two people in the corridor. He activated his flashlight, temporarily blinding them. "You guys need help? I need to go, now." He asked, as he saw some tags on the guys neck, He picked them up. "These you..." He asked as he read the name. Stokes, Jacob. Service tag HB-23341-18325-JS. He looked up at the guy in the room. "Where did you get these?" He demanded, oblivious to the radio as his squad rushed to fight intruders. "Tell me. Now." [i was typing as this updated.

Composite Armour Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Eric looked up at the opened hatch with his gun pointed. "Bloody hell, would you not do that. We're in a battle here." He lowered his gun and signaled to his gunner that everything was ok. "We've no idea. One of the Spartans led us, said we need to secure the corridors, we lost sight of him a few minutes ago." He checked his tacpad quickly. "We haven't heard anything from command, we're operating as a wolf pack. Reminds me of Reach." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinWarrior Posted August 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Taylor looked at the Spartan Medic, he was asking about the dog-tags, Taylor's face became cold, as he seemed pale, he finally spoke, "He was my friend... He saved my ass more times then I could ever pay him back for... And he died to make sure we could leave..." he picked up the burnt and dented dog-tags, as he continued, "And it should have been me..." as he stared at his cut up and burnt hands.

Lycaoni Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 "oh, ike, this guy is taylor" she said, "so, we going to the armory?" she asked taylor, looking back at the medic and taylor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDM Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) "Taylor...? TAYLOR DECELLO!!?? By golly I thought this hero died!" Ike got hyper, "The armory? Fine by me!" Ike grabbed his combat knife and checked it out. "Man I love this thing!" Edited August 17, 2013 by The Dumb Marine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Mal took off his helmet. His dirty blonde hair fell to shoulder length; his face bore remarkable similarity to the man whose tags were in his hands. "I hope you're telling the truth. I don't take kindly to family jokes. Now, you guys need armour. Happens I'm headed that way to the hangar, I guess I could help clear the way." He put on his helmet again and raised his rifle, aiming down the corridor ahead. "Let's get going." He stated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinWarrior Posted August 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Taylor walked with the man, as he started in front of the Medic, and grabbed his neckpiece, hard, he said to him in an angry voice, his teeth grit, "Listen to me... Jacob was my f**king friend, and a good man, DO I LOOK LIKE THE JOKING TYPE?!" Taylor said, tears running down his face, he let go of the man, and continued walking, there was surprisingly little covenant left, a couple a grunts if they got lucky, then, the door opened, and they entered it, a pristine white room, with the machines they were looking for, Taylor turned to his new friends, "Alright everybody suit up!" Taylor said as he walked forward, entering a machine, right behind Ashley's, as his boots were equipped, LG-50 Bulk leg pieces, as they equipped his recruit chest, putting on his ODST shoulder pieces, his XV-27 Shifting arm pieces, as the machine hissed while it was being done, as the helmet glided down, and was equipped the HUD starting up as Taylor's shields adapted. Taylor then stepped off the machine, as he walked forward, as Ashley's headpiece was equipped. Taylor then walked toward the armory, picking up his standard Shotgun and Thruster Pack. As he turned to Ike and Ashley, asking, "Just like old times?" with a smile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycaoni Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 "yeah, like old times" she said as she grabbed her active camo. she grabbed more ammo and then walked over to taylor "so whats the plan now?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDM Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 "Well... Theres no Reach, Theres no Joseph, or Jacob... No crashing, No- Nevermind... But yeah! Old times!" Ike was ecstatic today, Knowing his friend Taylor survived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Mal had to fight the urge to pin the idiotic little ***** in front if him to the wall and cave his skull in. He waited while the machines assembled the armour pieces, setting the scope level of his rifle to 2x magnification. CQC combat had no need for 4x. "We'll it seems you have this under control, I have a ship to defend, not waste time putting our necklaces on. I'll be taking these with me." He said as he added his fallen brothers tags to his own chain. Before he could get a response, he stormed out if the armoury and sprinted to the hangar where he joined the fight. Two Phantoms departed, leaving a boarding party on board. He let loose a volley of shots before regrouping with the ret of Phoenix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinWarrior Posted August 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Taylor saw the man take the Dog-tags, and a war urge came over him, he punched the spartan IV to floor, fighting with him for the dog-tags, as he punched the man, he said, "THEY BELONG TO ME!" with anger, as he mercilessly beat at him with his fists. All of a sudden, he stopped, he didn't know why, but he did, the world around him changed, to the snowy hill where his pelican crashed, he saw Jacob, his leg still bleeding, he was reliving Jacob's goodbye, he couldn't do it, he grabbed his head, and closed his eyes, as he yelled, "NO! NO! PLEASE! No... No..." He opened his eyes, and he was back, his arm aimed to break the man's skull... He grabbed the dog-tags out of the man's hand, and Taylor wrapped them on his own neck.

TDM Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 "Woah woah woah... If I knew a fight was breaking out, I wouldve gotten the bleachers set up and everything! I havent seen a fight since... A few minutes ago? Oh well..." Ike thought of it in his head. "Now, Mal! Versus, TAYLOR!!!!" And then everyone on the ship was cheering. "Man, Weird thoughts I have... Heheh... ODST's, Have no air in our heads..." Ike laughed a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Composite Armour Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 A large clank interrupted Eric's slow, uneventful drive through the corridors. The scorpions were mopping up the infantry nicely. The clank was followed by the tank shaking, with dulled sounds of the explosion that caused it. "Crap! Cover me, checking suspension." He quickly leaned down. "Holy...Murphy! We got...ARRRRGH!" "Gunner!?" He leaned back up to see the lifeless body of his gunner being hoisted up and thrown from the tank. "Crap!" He readied his pistol and watched as the elite peered into the inside of the tank. A few bullets left the mag and hit the elite in the head. It's shields flared and it flinched, doing little more then piss him off. Eric was stuck in an akward melee, with the elite having trouble moving inside the tank and Eric unable do anything other then call it hurtful names, a Tactic which he tried. He got on the comms. "Anyone, the scorpions have been ambushed, I need urgent support! I've got a El..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Mal got up and tackled the man to the ground. Plasma bolts screamed overhead. Mals squad, Phoenix, ran over and restrained the guy. Mal once again snatched away the tags, and equipped his rifle. He then hit him in the ribs with it, knocking the wind out of the Spartan in front. "I, don't. Care." He asserted his point by head butting the crying SOB in front. He reeled back from the shock as Mal spat on the floor in front of him. "Don't try that again. It won't work out well for you." He growled, before walking off. The squad members followed.

TDM Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) "Mal! Give him back the tags." Ike gestured, 'Remember, I have more combat skill than you, I can take out you can your squad. So give him back the tags, Or I will get them for him myself." Ike heard someone call for help over the transmitter. "DAMN IT ALL!!" Ike screamed, Behind that visor was a nice man, But he gets ticked off himself. "Okay, So... Someones in trouble... LETS GO SAVE THEM!" Ike got his knife ready, "Gotta love the sharp knives...." Ike looked at the knife. Edited August 17, 2013 by The Dumb Marine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinWarrior Posted August 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Taylor sat on the floor, blood running down his nose and mouth, as he rushed forward, grabbing Mal's neck and pulling him back, whispering in his ear, "You are nothing like the selfless man your brother was, you are a self-concerned, greedy, worthless, piece of s***, your brother was a wise and good man, and this is how you carry on his name, by beating up the marine who SAVED YOUR BROTHER'S LIFE ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS! I should snap your neck right now, but luckily for you, I need you alive." as he let go of Mal's neck so he could breath, he turned to Ike and Ashley, and said, "C'mon guys.. Let's go." as he wiped the blood from his nose. He picked his helmet up off the floor, and started it up, he noticed, someone contacted them on radio.

Lycaoni Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Ashley heard the tank guy on the radio, and ran towards the tank, and opened fire on the elite. she jumped up and shot the elite, using half a mag she killed it. "you ok?" she asked the tank driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Composite Armour Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 "Bloody hell." Eric was leaning at the edge of the tank, panting. "Jes...Thanks...uh...spartan." He looked at the dead elite and the empty gunners seat. "Listen, this tank isn't worth it on the ship, I need to get a proper weapon and some armour. Can you escort me to the Armoury?" He gestured his hand forward asking for help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
