The flood are spreading
I was walking home from school with my friends, all a glow with christmas spirit, when 20 infection forms dashed around the corner in front of us. We tried to run, hoping that jumping over the creek would save us from this madness. My friend Morris tried to clear the icy waters, but slipped and fell. I watched as the flood devoured him mercilessly. I have just arrived home now, and as I sit, huddled in a dark basement room, telling you this, I can hear the screams of my neighbors meeting the same fate. Beware, the flood are coming!!! And on christmas Eve, when you see santas sleigh floating across the sky, stay away!!!! Gravemind is just using it to spread the flood, like in amber clad.
Well in order to make some changes here, I've re-opened membership to all who wish to join. Feel free to pm me for some tips and a synopsis, and have fun! Ohh yes, the general rules still apply.
1. No covenant
2. The Flood are not in the Ark, and likely will not be
3. Control your own character, and refrain from making him a Spartan

King rises one final time, holding his arm out in a salute. "Goodbye.." Tearfully, he watches his thread, packed full of so many memories and friendships, sink gracefully into the abyss...
-
* Jc proceeds to roll a spliff *
-
I warily climb into the ship, the ladder automatically retracting and folding up. Something didn't seem right...
-
King and the gang eventually run into a well hidden person. After waking him, he says "hi, my name is karma". He explains that "I was walking w/ my other squad mates and seargent when a hugeswarm of flood came. When we knew that the fight would be futile, someone hit me over hte back of my head and knocked me out. Then I woke up when you found me. I guess my mates knew we were screwed so they kocked me out and hid me." After thinking for a few minutes, he spots a fallen flood combat form and picks up a shotgun lying a couple feet away from it. "This time, I wont disappoint." [Edited on 6/1/2005]

"Is there any way inside Erika?" The picture of the facility zooms in even closer, shifting to its structural schematics. "All entrances are guarded, save for aquaducts that run along the ground. Its either that or you storm the building by force." Night instantly throws a menacing look, happy at the thought of more carnage. "Actually, I'm thinking of doing both.. Lets get back to the spider-ship." King pulls Erika out of the console and hands the chip back to Night, as they run out from the Control room. They meet Morris half way down the hall, and King half-drags him back. Reaching the area beneath the vent, they find Smalls and Archduke huddling over a fresh pile of twisted steel. "What the hell happened here?" King glances at the mess. "We had a little run-in with some machines en route to the control room, no big deal,"he explained. King shrugs, and they sling themselves to the wall and work their way up by rope. They turn down the pillared corridor, but quickly remember the closed gateway on the far side. King slams a fist on the immovable stone, barring him from the landing platform. "Damn these throw-backs." Erika hacks the system and the door is up under five minutes. They burst out into the open, pelted by rain and hail, lightning flashing in the distance. "Its going to be a rough ride North," King yells over the commotion, peering out over the black forest below, the entire land darkened by the storm. The rest climb up the stairs into the machine, and I follow, eyeing the gateway eerily.
-
(sorry I haven't posted, finals and bad internet along with bungie being down) Morris tried to keep up with king and the rest, but he kept falling behind. His injured leg looked bad, he needed help badly. He kept on limping down the hallway, hoping that he could reach the others.
-
archduke asks, "how am i not myself"
-
Hey guys, yelled ArchDuke, I was fiddleing with that panel like the one that turned on all the security systems, and I got the setinal to follow me around and obey commands. Its kinda cool, He said, as the setinal floated by.
-
"Good to see you Zur" I give him a bear hug as he runs up to us in the Control Room. "We're looking for Halifax's location." Erika instantly gets to work..the halo hologram above instantly beacons our exact location, closing in on the control room area. It slowly moves north, finally resting on a large facility, and letting off a second beacon. "Shishka has him detained in this facility, or so the console says. I believe its some sort of Forerunner blackout stretch, used for imprisonment and torture. seems odd"
-
(yay halifax posted) "King, Night, wait up!" I jump out of the ship in excitment and fall over. Then I run over to king and start mumbling about them being taller than me.
-
The Great Pretender walks past... "Yo..."
-
Morris pauses to eat more cornbread and honey....
-
King and the rest blast through a wall of sentinels and fall down a ten foot shaft, finding themselves on a lower corridor. A glowing light appears near the end of the hall. "We're close.. Smalls and Arch, guard the shaft." Night, Morris, and I hurry down the corridor and run into the light. A gust of wind blasts over us as we come out into the massive room. The walkway leads us to the centre of the spherical core, where a single computer console stands before the vast abyss below. Night inserts Erika into the console, and she appears abruptly on a pod to the side. "Access the map." A few moments later, the large hologram of a spinning halo appears over the entire room, causing us to stare in wonder.
-
Halifax looks down and surprisingly, there is King and the gang. "Okay guys, we're landing."
-
tosses a frag down the hall and watches the chain reaction as the sentinels and floor droids explode. "damn im a good shot"
-
(WILL YOU IDIOTS STOP POSTING CRAP! MY GOD! YOU ALL SHOULD BE STABBED IN THE EYES WITH STEAMING HOT FRENCH FRIES!!!............... ok now that i have vented my anger and will now return to the story *stab*) Monkey runs after the group as we dash towards the center of the complex. We make our way down a long corridor that seems to go on forever spiraling and gently sloping downwards. Then suddenly as we turn a corner we see a huge force of sentinels and floor droids waiting. "aww crap" breaths Monkey as the army of sentinels fire their lasers and we dive for cover, praying that the beams would not hit anyone for any unluckey fool who was caught would be melten instantly by the deadly rays of the swarm of machines
-
then Morris paused for a moment to eat a bit of cornbread and honey.
-
Morris limped behind them as fast as he could. He started falling behind so he picked up two arms from a broken sentinel major and used them as crutches. "How come king gets carried and I'm left behind?"
-
ArchDuke followed with setinal major in tow.
-
"We need to get to the center of the control room. The database containing this Halos information, and Halifaxes whereabouts, are in there." We tear down the hallway, sentinels in pursuit.
-
night scoops up king by the seat of his pants as he was haulin ass by shooting sentinels " i suggest we all get the hell out of here i kinda left a little bomb for them to find."
-
Your face is a flood. ahaha
-
This story will continue if it means I must post alone....*King is blacklisted for incessant double-posting* King stumbles up to the rest of the group, and grabs ahold of them. "I've had just about damned enough of fighting sentinels and not getting anywhere. We are going to save Halifax, destroy Shishka, and we'll do it tonight!!" King runs down the hallway and trips over a piece of metal.
-
If that was meant the way I think it was then your saying it's my fault!?!? Well, if not, no I am not surprised, I just don't want this to die. If that is the way you think, then I don't agree.
