************ John fired rapidly, blue bolts streaming from the tips of his two rifles, and smashing into the body of the foremost Elite. After a few seconds, the Elite collapsed. The others had come into close quarters by now, and were preparing to slice with their burning swords. One swung at the Chief, and the Spartan jumped high into the air, somersaulting as he soared, pumping bolts of death into the attacker. He landed behind another, and without looking back, rammed his elbow into the Elites chest. John felt a brief resistance from the Honour Guards' energy shields, then penetrated through, and smashed through it's pumping heart. When John withdrew his arm, it was covered in a damp, orange blood. He noticed another Plasma conduit, and fired at it. Once again, burning fire poured out, incinerating another five Elites. Now only three remained. "Throw down your weapons if you wish to live!" John ordered, and his demand was met. The Elites dropped to the ground, hands held high up in the air. Thinking the situation over, John made the mistake of turning around. Taking advantage, one of the Elites pounced upon John, knocking him the the ground. John grabbed the Elite by it's throat, and threw it with one hand into another, sending them both crashing to the floor, unconscious. One still remained though, and before John could react, it swung a mighty kick at John's head, dazing him. Grabbing the Spartan by it's shoulder, the Elite hoisted him up into the air, picking up an Energy Sword. "And so," The lone Honour Guard spoke, activating the blade. "This is where you die." The Elite raised the sword, and John closed his eyes. Suddenly, a shot rang across the silent hall, and John felt the intense pressure on his shoulder release. "Not today Ugly." A familiar voice spoke. John turned around, and saw him. "Johnson?" He asked in disbelief. "Who else were you expecting?" The Sergeant broke out into a grin. "But...I saw you die!" The Spartan protested. "You know what the say Chief, it ain't over 'til the Fat lady sings, and at the moment, it looks like her throat's a little sore." ************** "You're strong K'zath, but not strong enough!" The Arbiter shouted through gritted teeth. Both of their swords were clashed against each other. The battle had become a contest of strength. "That is where you are wrong Thel!" K'zath made one last final push, and managed to break the Arbiter's defence. Thel went tumbling to the ground. "Go ahead, kill me. R'tas will kill you for failing to hold the Demon in any case." Thel spoke, defeated. "You overestimate him Thel." K'zath spoke, placing his foot upon the Arbiter's chest. "He has no chance against thirty of the Guard. He is dead." "Were it so easy..." Thel spoke, echoing what he had first spoken months ago. "Prepare to die, Arbiter." The Kaidon raised both his swords, preparing to impale. As his arms descended though, two green, armoured hands grabbed them, stopping them dead in their tracks. With an impending horror, K'zath turned around, and saw the face of his worst nightmare, the Demon. "Impossible..." He breathed, and John hoisted him up into the air. "You know what they say about that word..." The Demon spoke, and, grabbing the Kaidon by the throat, tossed him into the wall. K'zath moaned in pain. "Please...please!" K'zath screamed. "Have mercy!" John bent down to the broken Elite's level. "Demons don't show mercy." He whispered before sharply chopping the Kaidon in the throat. K'zath gave a gargle, coughed up blood, and then slumped to the ground, lifeless. He noticed a small metallic chip drop out from the Kaidon's corpse. Hoping it was what John thought it was, the Spartan picked it up. Johnson came rushing into view, out of breath. "God damn it, I missed the party." He swore. "Sergeant?" The Arbiter rose, and asked in disbelief. "Yeah yeah, I'm still alive. Come on, I'll fill you in on the details once we get out of here." John looked at Avery. "And how exactly do you plan on doing that?" He asked, sceptical. Suddenly, the roar of the Scarab beam thundered, and one hundred feet or so ahead, a section of the corridor broke off, opening a passage to the outside. "Ah." John said, his question answered.
