"SURPRESSIVE FIRE! WATCH THE RIGHT FLANK!" I yelled commanding fire squad 1 into the right side of our road block. we had intercepted the convoy of trucks transporting power cells to Nintendo. we weren't strong enough to attack Nintendo directly so we were going to weaken them. but they were a little more armored that we had expected.
"INCOMING!" Caleb yelled throwing an energy shield down.
"OH FU-" I yelled jumping into our fox hole. the strike hit the ground and blew one of our sand bags apart.
"captain! Spyro is down!" Cynder yelled getting up from the blast.
"can you get him?" I yelled.
"no sir! I'm hit!"
"ok! suppressive fire on the smoke!"
"HOORAH!" the team yelled in response. I took the smoke and threw it. it hit the ground and then busted into a cloud of dark grey smoke. every one began firing into the cloud as I ran to my favorite comrade. I ran with pistol drawn as fast as I could, but out of the smoke came one of the dino-goons from starfox adventures. and he had an assassins knife drawn. when all of the sudden, I was hit from behind. right in my ankle shattering the bone. I fell tumbling across the ground. my pistol was out of reach, and the assassin drew ever closer. I crawled across the ground reaching for the pistol, when suddenly a gas knife jacked into my wrist pinning my hand to the ground. I looked up grunting in pain as the assassin loaded another knife into his wrist launcher. he laughed as he pointed it at Spyro. everything moved in slow motion as he aimed the weapon. suddenly the assassin was struck by a sonic scream as Cynder ran past me. it stunned him at first but then she leaped at him spin kicking and tearing his throat. she scooped up Spyro and limped back to me.
"sorry captain… i…"
"I understand…" I said ripping the knife out of my arm. suddenly Flame flew over and a huge fire ball tore across the field igniting the trucks.
"about time… I said limping back to the road block.
"ok. who shot the hi-cal into my leg?" I said looking around. Caleb had the dragmark 20 cal.
"you shot me? how did you shoot me?"
"well, you ran into my scope! I didn't mean to!."
"oh well it doesn't matter. we beat them down. lets head to base." and with that we trotted, limped and carried our wounded to our jet and we were off. in the jet I walked to sparta.
"hey. how you doing?"
"oh, I'm good."
"I want to know… how did you not get wounded in that blast?"
"what?" she replied in confusion.
"the shell. it went off 15 feet from you. and, no wounds. how?" she sighed and looked to the floor.
"ok. you got me. when did you know?"
"in our last battle, you shimmered when there was an arc of power. I saw you in the sim. where are you broadcasting from?" she pressed a button on her wrist and Kylee appeared
"our garage. dad was worried about Caleb, so he sent me to watch over him in Sparta's place."
"huh, clever. so where is she?"
"Spartan 1130. she is in disguise."
"thanks. I want you to go back and stop worrying your brother. he is worried sick. ok?"
"ok. Kylee out." she shimmered and then disappeared. I walked to the barracks. I went to the 1100 deck to see Sparta. I got to bunk 30 and she was still wearing her suit. and there was a bullet wound in the arm. looked like a 50. cal.
"you hit solider?" she nodded.
"you know, there aren't any girls allowed on this side of the plane.
she shrugged and laid down. I sat on the edge of her bunk.
"you know what I mean." I leaned over and pressed the release button on the side of her helmet, and her furry face was revealed. she smiled.
"hi." I smiled back. she sat up and took off her helmet.
"here let me mend that." I said removing her arm band.
"do you like me?" she said. cocking her head to the right.
"of course I like you. I created you didn't i?"
"not like that…" I stopped.
"oh… you mean…"she nodded.
"well… I created you to be with my alter ego… but he and I cannot exist at the same time. so… I can't. I simply love someone else. I'm sorry. there. all done."
"ok. I just want to be alone. ok?"
"yeah…ok." that was the last time I saw her. alone anyway….
YAY END CHAP ONE! R AND R!
