Noble Heroes

A small creature, short, with hoof like feet that had three toes, hands with four fingers, and a methane gas mask on to breathe, he groaned, his squeaky voice muttering some curses.

"Big alien meanies should stay away from me. Me think they cause trouble!" The Unggoy said, his high pitched voice making all the animals that gathered around him run away.

This Grunts name was Yip Yap, or Yap for short. He got up, his methane tank orange, seeming to be big and bulky, but was loaded with his proper alien breathe, methane. He got up, and checked his Plasma Pistol, the healthy green glowing, meaning it was ready.

"Where is me anyway?" Yap asked himself, looking around. He appeared to be, in what humans call, a Bog. "Me have a bad feeling about this place."

"You have a bad feeling about everything, even morning food nipple!" A voice said, sounding like Yap's, except it was slightly lighter.

"Zip, is that you?" Yap asked, looking towards the other Unggoy right next to him.

"Of course. Me think you need your eyes checked." Zip Hap said, getting up, her bones aching. "Where are we?"

"Me don't know, maybe you should ask those glowing eyes." Yap said, making Zip look at the glowing yellow eyes.

"Those don't look like friendly eyes." Zip said, grabbing her Plasma Pistol. Zip looked like Yap, except she was taller by four inches, and her methane pack was green, not orange.

Suddenly, Four wooden wolf like creatures appeared, eyeing their prey. Yap didn't like the look in their eyes, and charged his plasma up, making a green ball, and fire, hitting the smallest wolf dead on in the face, causing it to burst into flames. Zip and Yap started laughing, seeing the wolf roll around trying to get the green flames of plasma off, only to lie motionless.

The other three started to charge, and Zip brought her plasma grenade out. She pressed the orange button in the middle, and threw it, yelling, "HERE'S ONE FOR YOUR MAMA!"

It landed on the second biggest one, and exploded, killing it, and the other smallest one in a ball of blue flames.

"Oh yeah, double kill!" Zip yelled, not noticing the Alpha running towards her. Yap fire his plasma pistol at it, causing it to catch on fire, and miss Zip by a few inches.

"Dumb animals should know better than to mess with me." Yap said, only to earn a clearing of Zip's throat. "And Zip." Yap added, making the bigger Unggoy smile.

Yap looked around, then started to walk towards a random direction.

"Where are you going?" Zip asked, looking at Yap in confusion.

"Me going to find some where to live. Me don't want to sleep out here, where animals can eat us. Perhaps you can, but me going to find some intelligent, or maybe semi intelligent, race somewhere nearby." Yap answered, causing Zip to be surprised. "What?"

"It's just that, me never heard you speak so smart like, it makes me very happy to know not all grunts are idiots." Zip said, making Yap growl.

Yap sniffed the air a couple of times, then his black eyes widened in fear. "Run!" Yap said, but then an invisible figure grabbed him, it's mandibles pressed together, to look more human like.

It sniffed him a few times, before dropping him. "You two shouldn't be here." A female voice said, coming from the armored Sangheili in front of them. Her white Ultra armor gleaming through the limited sunlight.

"Z, is that you?" Yap asked, making the female Elite nod. He squealed in joy, and hugged her leg. "Me thought me lost you! It is so good to see a friendly Sangheili."

"Yip Yap." Z said.

"Yes?"

"Get off my leg before I make you get off personally." Z said, looking down at the grunt.

Yap blushed, then got off, looking down, finding the dirt to be interesting. Z smiled, and patted his head, causing him to smile.

"You're still the same as I remembered. You may be smart, but you do embarrassing things." Z said, then she would look around, sniffing the air. "We must move and find a settlement. There is one nearby, and I saw a Sangheili on, what looked like a farm."

"You mean there are Elites here. So, that means me going to have trouble here." Yip said, before getting punched on the shoulder by Zip.

"Me think you're just a baby!" Zip said, Z knowing Zip had a plan behind it.

"Oh yeah, well me think you stinky female!" Yap said, then he would look at Z. "No offense."

"None Taken." Z said, then she would grab her Needle Rifle out, tinkering with it.

"Well, me and Z are going. You can stay here and play with yourself!" Zip said playfully, causing Yip to blush.

"Oh yeah! Well...Uhm...Shut up!" Yip said, then, he started to walk off.

"Settlement's the other way." Z said, causing Yip to turn around.

"Me knew that. Me just testing you!" Yip said, trying to regain his pride.

"Yeah, I'm sure you knew the way. Let's go, we're loosing time. If we don't go there now, we may not later." Z said, walking towards the certain town. Yip went in front of the two females, walking on four legs. "So, when you meant Yip had to play with himself..."

"Me no want to talk about it. Brings bad memories for Yip, because females would always go after him." Zip said, giggling. Z only chuckled.

"You two never change." Z remarked.

"Nope. Me and Yip will stick together. You're stuck with us too, weird how we meet like this." Zip said, making the Ultra nod.

Yip suddenly stopped, and looked at the females. "Wait, how long until we get there?"

"Well, maybe a few hours at the least, a day at the most, why?" Z asked.

"Because me have feeling that we're not alone." Yap said, pointing towards plasma burns, ones that didn't come from the three aliens at the time, and these looked a few days old. Yap backed away once he saw a dead lion like animal, with bat wings and a scorpion tail.

"No way a normal Sangheili do this. Must be fast, smart, and deadly to take on that thing." Z noted, then she sniffed the air. "Either Zealot of Field Marshall, but I think it's likely Field Marshall depending how fast the kill was. Either that, or a really violent Zealot." Z said, making Yap tremble in fear.

"Me think that Yap is going to piss himself." Zip whispered to Z, making the Sangheili chuckle.

"Wouldn't be the first grunt to do that." Z said, making Zip look at Yap. "Don't worry, he'll be fine. He's a tough little Unggoy, most of the time, anyways."
