John loaded the last clip to his pistól and started to move towards the armory. In the way to the armory he encountered too many enemies and he wasted all his pistol ammo too soon and dessided to head straight to the lifepods. On his way he grabbed some ammo to his pistol and to his rifle from the dead, though he had not wasted too much of his sniper rifle ammo. Joel was one of the last to head towards the lifepods cause of his little failed sidetrip to the armory.

Calvin slammed his Warthog into and elite and ran it over. He then saw everyone going to the life boats "Oy!" he said with a frustraited tone "Don't tell be I have to abandon this thing!" he said as he pointed to the Warthog.

Billy was about to head to the lifeboats when his radio crackled

"Attention all Helljumpers this is Major Silva. Report to the waiting room! We're getting off this ship the only way we know how"

Billy yelled to Lt. Rickz "Sir! I'm a helljumper, and I've been ordered to get off of here and head down feet first! You guys get to the lifeboats, I'll see you on Halo."

Billy reached the area of the ship dubbed "Hell's waiting room". He noticed almost all of the ODST HEV pods had been launched. Fortunately, his HEV pod was still there. Unfortunately, a Gold Elite was blocking his path. The Elite ignaited his plasma sword and charged at Billy. With instinctual reflexes that gave definition to his nickname, Billy drew his plasma sword and blocked the Elite's first strike. The Elite growled in surpirse at seeing a human carrying his weapon; that growl turned to a scream of pain as Billy ran the elite through with the plasma blade. As the elite crumpled he let out a solitary word in English.

"Infidelllll......"

"Wrong...the name is Wolf." Billy spat as the elite bled to death on the floor.

Billy jumped into his HEV pod, activated it's preprogrammed landing sequence, and was launched into space.

OOC: I know one of the other charcters is a Helljumper, I just can't remember who. But basically he should leave the ship in the same fashion...unless he can't reach a HEV pod.

ooc: That would be me.

ic: After hearing the announcement for the Helljumpers, Mike ran as fast as he could to his HEV pod. He managed to make it, and saw a dead Elite on the ground, a gold one at that. He climbed into the pod and activated it, hoping he wasn't going to land on top of more Covenant.

Jimmy quckly skittered out of the mess hall and made a dash for the armory. He knew ammo would be scarce once they hit halo so knowledge led to action.

He finially reached the armory and looked for a bag of some sort. He grabbed a roll bag and began piling in all the ammo he could fit, along with a small leather satchel containing weapon maintainance tools. after the bag was filled, he slammed another clip into his assult rifle and made a dash for the lifepods.

ooc: hope you weren't talkin' to me

Chris snapped in his last clip into his battle rifle, falling in behind the lieutenant and tossing a frag into the crowd of grunts opposite the Master Chief, hoping to help cover the escape of the rest of his squad
FIRE IN THE HOLE!
He cut hard around a corner behind a squadmate, Jimmy, he remembered, and followed him into the armory. No words were exchanged as he stocked up on ammo for his battle rifle and S2, filling a backpack with clips and refilling his grenade belt. He ejected the half spent clip from his Mk.II and slipped in the last clean one on the shelf, and dashed after Jimmy to the lifepods

Joel reached the lifepods and saw a few elites on the way. He quickly disposed of the elites with a granade and made it to the lifepods. He got to one of the lifepods.

There wasn't much time left until all the pods were gone. He got to the armory, picked up as many rocket cases as he could carry, filled up his pistol, then made a dash for the pods. Stopping at the end of the hallway, he directed traffic for all the marines abandoning, "C'mon! You all have heard the captain! Move it, move it, move it! Move like you're momma's on the other side! If you ain't in a pod soon, we're leavin' without ya!!"

Joel left with his pod. He didn't like the pods too much...actually he didn't like flying at all...

Chris rushed into one of the lifeboats, securing himself with the rest of his squad.
