~Chapter 1: Evac~

 

 

 

Sarge: "What is that?"

Osiris: "What is what?"

Sarge: "What is that vehicle?"

Osiris: "Are you freaking kidding me? It's the newest model of the Covenant Scarab. Except with more explosive power and modifications."

Paladin then bursted out his question, "What's a Scarab?" Which got the entire ODST squad nodding in agreement.

Osiris then shook his head and said, "Ah, never mind." He then lifted up a small device package and asked, "Do you see this?" They all replied in various responses approving they saw it. "Well this is my electronics package I use for hijacking security systems. One night I went out and stole this Scarab from the covenant. I had Sif, which is the dumb AI embedded into the device, take out all the security systems; while I took over the Scarab controls. Was an amazing night. So many explosions..." He looked up in awe.

Sarge then asked "What is Doc doing? He seems to be hauling stuff into the Scarab."

Osiris looked over at the Scarab and took out his 12x zoom binoculars. "Looks like he's loading medical equipment. Wouldn't surprise me, you guy's might need it."

Sarge looked at him confused, "You mean you won't get hurt? I call crap on that."

Osiris started laughing, "Idiot. If you knew any damn thing about a Scarab, then you would know the driver is well protected. Now get in. I have replaced all three of the covenant plasma cannons with grenade launcher turrets. Which have 50mm, if you must know. If you don't care, then that's fine. I get to watch the amazing explosions anyways." Osiris then walked up and got into the Scarab. "Alright boys, hop on. There's only three mounted turrets, but the fourth one can use the AA gun on top. You fight over who gets what, even kill each other. I don't care."

Sarge muttered "Yes, sir."

As they departed it took them about an hour to get the major battle scene which it looked like only two soldiers were left fighting. Paladin and Dumby looked at each other like they thought the two soldiers were going to die before we could get there. They then departed to the two turrets mounted on the sides of the Scarab. Sarge was on rear bay turret, and Destroyer was in the AA gun. Just then someone they don't know crackled over the network communication.

"Osiris please tell me that is you approaching us from behind."

Osiris then crackled onto the network, "Yes sir!"

"Good" the voice replied back.

Osiris then asked the man, "Yo Biggles, do you and Jack want to get in to that flipped gauss warthog, or at least that's what it looks like, and then help us get those evac shuttles launched?"

This time another voice got on the network, it must have been Jack. "Yeah we're going for it as soon as you open fire. There are at least 22 Wraiths, 50 banshees, 500 grunts, 234 Jackals, 124 elites, and 10 hunters. That's not counting what's on the phantoms coming this way. You guys take out the vehicles and hunters. We got the rest."

Osiris smiled and replied back "Sounds like fun. We get the explosions, you get the kills." Osiris then started opening fire on the Wraiths. Along with Dumby and Paladin opening fire on any infantry nearby.

Destroyer crackled over the COM. "One. Two. Three. Four. Five..."

Osiris yelled back at him, "Gosh damn it Destroyer! Shoot off the Banshee wings, that way spinoff and crash; instead of crashing into us!"

Biggles then yelled over the network "Hold your fire, Dumby! We're on your side! Those grenade blasts that you keep shooting and bouncing back and forth in front of the warthog and behind; Are starting to get really annoying!"

Just at that moment, Covenant Vampires and Phantoms flew in at full speed.

Sarge yelled at Destroyer "Destroyer! 6 O'clock! We got Vampires and Phantoms on our tail! Now that those Banshees are gone, can you take them out?"

Biggles and Jack drove ahead of the Scarab taking care of the last of the infantry while Osiris turned around and took all the Vampires and Phantoms. He then started laughing over the network, "Who needs an AA gun, when you have me?"

Bad call. Right as one of the Vampire's crashed, it shot a needle. The needle then traveled right into lower bay of the Scarab. Just barely hitting Sarge. Who then yelled, "Medic!"

Thing was, Doc was already over there grabbing him and taking him to the improvised infirmary he made. He got the wound covered and patched up for him. Doc then told Osiris "I think they need to launch, now!"

At that moment they heard a loud sonic boom. Dumby, Paladin, and Destroyer all looked in the direction it came from and watched the six evac shuttles take off. Paladin and Destroyer responded "Wow - Glad we got that done."

Jack yelled in over the network "You forgot one! You forgo-" Just then, they heard a fuel rod cannon launch and everyone looked over and saw the last hunter. He had shot the two Spartans warthog. Osiris then quickly blew up the hunter into millions of worms, then finished them off.

Biggles responded, "We're fine. Warthogs not. Just come and get us. Our weapons are dry."

Osiris then walked over to them and docked the Scarab so they could board. Paladin then got on the network with Warlord and let them know the Shuttles have just launched and they were ready for evac. He then got down in the infirmary and told everyone "We'll have a longsword here in 2 minutes to evac us. We just need to hold the area until then."

Right then, a longsword just landed and a man cracked over the network "Names Architect, you guys need to get in here now! The pilot's ready to go! Lets go go go!"

They all ran up and boarded the longsword and took off. As soon as they took off. They heard an extremely loud explosion. Osiris bursted out laughing.

Sarge asked him "What was that?"

Osiris responded, "Oh just Sif setting off a Havoc nuke on the Scarab." He continued laughing.

At that moment. They just boarded the UNSC Warlord... Where red alert was going off...

This looks great! Excellent work Fishy, keep it up.

 

Question: Does the hijacked Scarab still fire a Plasma Beam from it's Main Cannon or was it's design altered to fire something else?

The scarab still fires it's normal beam, just the plasma turrets have been replaced.
