Markez took note of everyone's voice that piped up. "All right! Now move it out! Double time!" The men, taking the order, ran to where they needed to go. Following behind them was Markez, M9 in his hand. "All you greenhorn who wanted to see Covenant up close... This is you're lucky day!"

This ship shook violently, before Cortana's voice came through. "We have Covenant leaking into the ship! They will be in hanger bay one in five minutes."

Markez took a quick glance around. "That's us ladies! All right, set up shop, cause this is going to be rush season!" He found a place behind a parked warthog and pulled his pistol to his eye towards a door. Come on... let's see what these guys really have! I trust my men! They won't go down easy! Heh... these guys don't stand a chance!

Joel put his sniper rifle hanging behind his back cause he was too close to the door to use it. Joel took out his sidearm and pinted at the door. "Come on...come on..." He said to him self.

Chris checked the magazine on his Mk.II once more, This here's a thing a' beauty, and ran up behind the warthog with Lieutenant Markez, saying
"mind if I join you, sir? I always like to have someone to talk to while I shoot"

Joel moved behind a container box he saw. He usualle liked to shoot alone...especially when using his sniper rifle.

Mike took shelter behind a nearby crate. He was looking through the scope on his battle rifle, ready to shoot anything that was going to come through. He was also ready to throw a grenade if there were too many of the Covenant coming through. He smiled as he pointed at the rifle at about the head level of a Grunt.

Seeing Joel move to one side of the bay, Jason moved to other so that the area would be better covered by sniper fire. He climbed up on top of the treads of an immobile Scorpion and laid prone. He propped his rifle up, and gazed at the door through his scope. Fumbling blindly with his free hand, he placed a few extra rounds of ammor on the Scorpion next to him so he could reload faster.

Billy took cover near Jason's positon, keeping his shotgun leveled at the door. He was well obscured by the forward tread of the parked Scorpion, which would protect him from plasma fire and the needles.

Come on you bastards, let's see what you've got. he thought as he heard explosions nearing their positions.

Calvin jumped up onto a warthog and manned the chaingun on the back. He smiled gleefully as he aimed it where the Covenant would appear. "Lets rumble!" he said.

(Just to let you know, Calvin always talks in a Scottish accent. I probubly should have mentioned that earlier.)

Jimmy had scuttled behind a container of Warthog parts but wasn't exactly aiming at the door. He figured the Covenant to be smarter than to wander straight into a meat grinder so he kept his MA5B ready to shoot in any direction he needed it to. Alright you slimy sons of bitches, come and get your daily dosage of lead

Joel put his pistol away and took his sniper rifle from his back. Le'ts see what they can do...
