Hey, y'all. As the title suggests, this story is based around Captain MacMillan, who is "famous" for his role in Call of Duty 4. It is, however, largely focused on the Halo universe as well. This fan-fiction is going to be written by both myself and Uberdawg, who will likely have the first chapter up tonight. This prologue is simply a backstory for MacMillan. 'tis here:
[b]The Misadventures of Captain MacMillan[/b]
[i]Prologue[/i]
Who is Captain MacMillan? Where did he come from? How did his mere existence lead two Xbox Live gamers to write a piece of literature based around him? Those first two will be answered as we progress through this prologue. That third one- well, it’s not like we really had a choice. It’s Captain MacMillan!
Rumour once had it that MacMillan descended from Hercules (as were the Spartans of the Battle of Thermopylae, coincidentally). Others speculated that the man just simply created himself. However, after careful, scientific deduction, it has been proven that Captain MacMillan originated from radiated dog feces. And that does not make him any less human than the rest of us. Probably more so, come to think of it.
During his early years (if that's what you want to call them), MacMillan was raised by a pack of wolves within the abandoned city of Chernobyl. With their expertise, he became stealthy, cunning, and learned not only how to speak with a Scottish accent, but also how to wield an M21.
MacMillan loved his family. Every night, he would bring home the rabbits that he had hunted that afternoon, just to see the look on their faces (which, being wolves, was almost always the same). One morning, however, while MacMillan was fetching breakfast for his family, the entire pack was murdered by a boy and his father (why they were in Chernobyl to begin with is beyond me). It was but a mere two minutes later when they both heard the phrase, "Oi, suzy!" Neither the condition nor the whereabouts of these two are known.
MacMillan currently serves as an SAS (Special Air Service) officer.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Deathinaitor ok, ok, ok. if i give everyone here a cookie, will i get to read the new chapter?[/quote] Negative. Some cake would get you a new chapter, though. Also, Rare's taking a break from the site for a while, he tells me. So I'll be handling this next chapter at least, and am starting work on it tonight.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] da5boroughs I love Big Bird/MC's Bioshock reference![/quote] I'm so glad you noticed :D Rare and I slip so many movie/video game references in here it's not even funny, and it seems like no one catches them. Rare had an enormous There Will Be Blood reference in Chapter 10, but nobody saw that... It's good to see a very astute reader! BTW, guys, the next chapter will actually not be coming out for some time. Possibly a week, hopefully less. Rare is dealing with some family issues right now and we've been able to speak very little of the chapter as well, so y'all be patient with us, please. [Edited on 06.22.2008 7:12 PM PDT]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY? You maniacs you burned him down! Damn you Damn you all to hell! Guess which movie the last part is from.[/quote] Ummm... uhhh... Animal House? I've got no clue. Also, Rare will likely post the chapter tomorrow (Sunday), as we've had a busy and illness laden week, leading to a deprivation of time to talk fanfic on XBL. He and I shall discuss it tomorrow, though, and the fans will have their chapter.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Sludgee [i]"Then Macmeelanz woke up, AND EET WUZ JUST A DREEM."[/i] Lol, that was an interesting chapter.[/quote] Sludgee, I haz a reliable source that has spoken of your love for the Arbiter and Elites in general. So that said, I want you to be honest: did you cry when you read of the Arbiter's death? Also, Gaz and Price will be showing up soon... VERY soon. [Edited on 06.18.2008 9:16 PM PDT]
