Before the explosion

"Gentlemen, we're burning sunshine here!" Forge yelled to the Spartans. Forge then jumped up on the slip space drive prepping it to blow. The lieutenant walked over to the forerunner door to get it open. Standing not so far away was the Arbiter, cloaked, holding an energy sword. The lieutenant pressed the opening sign. The door activated.
"It's active," the lieutenant said.
"Sergeant," a spartan called over. Forge stopped what he was doing and looked over. Just as he did a platoon of blue colored elites started uncloaking them selves.
"Lieutenant!?" Forge yelled. As he did he turned around to see the lieutenant get thrown aside by the Arbiter. Forge, pissed as hell turned to the spartan next to him and said, "Take care of those elites!" Then turned back to the Arbiter and said, "he's mine." Then Forge slammed his foot down on the release making the two ton drive slide down the ramp an crush the Arbiter.
--Mean while--
Three Spartans pull out their weapons anticipating the fight with the elites.
"Let's go," the middle Spartan said. Then he dropped down on one knee and started firing his shotgun. Killing one elite. The other two Spartans ran at the elites and started firing S.M.G. rounds into the crowd. Killing more elites in the process. One elite made the mistake of trying to stab the Spartan. The Spartan took the blade and hit the elite's legs causing it to trip, while it was down the Spartan stabbed the elite and killed it. The Spartan to the right disarmed a elite before shooting it in the back of it's skull making the blood splatter on the floor. The Spartan then crouched and grabbed a blade before it hit his shoulder. The Spartan on the left noticed this and chopped the elite's blade in half. The Spartan in the middle then fired a shotgun round into the elites chest. The Spartans on the outside threw the blades that the elites dropped into the crowd, killing two more elites.
--Back to Forge--
Forge ran over to the door to see if he crushed the Arbiter. As Forge got there he saw no sign of the Arbiter being hurt. Somewhere behind him Forge heard foot steps. He turned just in time to duck an incoming energy sword that hit the side of the space drive. Forge then hit the Arbiter causing him to let go of the sword. Then he rolled to the right and started firing rounds into the Arbiter who pulled out yet another energy sword. The Arbiter swung again at Forge who ducked. Forge brought up his rifle only for it to get hit away in the Arbiter's back-swing. Forge then tackled the Arbiter to the floor then repeatedly punched him in the face.
After that he pulled out his pistol and shot half the clip into the Arbiter's hand making him let go of the energy sword. The Arbiter in rage mode grabbed Forge and threw him into the ground, then punched him in the gut, making Forge cry out in pain. The Arbiter stood up.
"Like the rest of your race, weak and undisciplined," the Arbiter said. Then he grabbed Forge and threw him into the side of the space drive.
--Back to the Spartans--
A Spartan and a elite started running at each other. The Spartan jumped over the elite firing rounds into the elite's neck and back. When he landed he grabbed the elite and spun around just as another elite tried to stab him. The elite the spartan had took the blow just as the one who did said stabbing was shot in the back by a shotgun. The shotgun Spartan then turned around only to be grabbed by an elite. The Spartan used his shoulder to knock off the elite then shot it.
--Back to forge--
Forge flew through the air as he was thrown again. The Arbiter walked over to the energy sword he dropped and said, "There will be no female to save you this time." The Arbiter turned on the sword and started walking back over to Forge.
"Look me in the eye and say that," said Forge as he sat up.
"As you wish," said the Arbiter as he picked up Forge bringing him eye level. Then he said, "My face will be the last things your pathetic eyes ever see." The Arbiter pulled up the energy sword to finish off Forge.
"AaaHhhh," Forge yelled as he pulled out a hidden blade and proceeded to stab the Arbiter in the neck. The surprised Arbiter dropped Forge and clutched the wound that was bleeding profusely. Forge bent over and picked up the dropped energy sword. Then he stabbed the Arbiter in the chest. The Arbiter fell to the ground and died just after Forge yelled, "And for the record, I would have kicked your ass the first time if the lady hadn't stopped me."
Minuets later they had the damaged slip space drive ready and had the body of the Arbiter pushed of the platform. Forge walked over to the Spartan who was taking damage control.
"Sir, it's already overheating," the Spartan said sounding a bit worried. "I'll have to separate the core and align them manually when they need to blow." Forge, after hearing this started making calculations in his head.
"Son, I've a feeling before this is over we'll need every last spartan in the fight." Forge said grabbing the Spartan shoulder then tapped it gently and said, "I can do this. Report back to the ship."
The Spartan just looked at Forge and nodded, "Good luck sir, it's been an honor." The Spartan then walked out of the room turned around an gave Forge one last nod of the head. Forge nodded back just as the door closed.
--30mins later--
"Forge the shield doors are open. Blow the core as we leave," Captain Cutter said over the comm line
"Ok, I'm blowing the core," Forge said back. Just before he blew it he heard a moan come from the other side of the core.
Surprised as he was he was even more surprised to find that it was the lieutenant.
"Lieutenant your Ali...I mean your alright," Forge mentally face palmed himself. He forgot all about the lieutenant during his fight with the Arbiter. Forge looked back at the lieutenant and said "what's your name, son."
"Lieutenant Sam Picker service number 7935-3845-AF Foxtrot Company 13 battalion of the UNSC," Sam said proudly.
"We'll not to worry you or any thing but, I'm about to blow the space drive," Forge said sadly. He looked around and saw a Bio-foam canister not to far away. The marine looked sad before saying "At least I go out with a bang." Then a loud bang came from the elevator door Which freaked both of the humans out.
"Human, you think you can kill me so easily? Mmmhahaha! I am the Arbiter. I will not be killed by the likes of you!" called a should be dead Arbiter.
--17min earlier--
The Arbiter felt weightless as he fell through the sky. So weightless that he almost felt happy, almost. He opened his eyes to see that he was bleeding profusely. Not only that but his swords were falling right beside him. He reached out for the one the the left because it was closer to him. His index finger slid on the handle causing it to spiral to him. He was pleased but remembered that he was still falling. He did a flip in midair and saw the ground approaching fast. To fast for his liking. He realized that he was going to die. So being the honorable type he closed his eyes and waited for a SPLAT. One minute later of not dieing he opened his eyes to find that a passing Vampire (It is an aircraft with a telekinetic ability.) has seen him and caught him five feet from the ground. The Arbiter made a mental note to give the pilot his gratitude. After a couple minutes of patch ups he asked to ride in the Vampire since the pilot had no co-pilot. After a minute of looking for his second blade only to find it twenty feet away. They got into the Vampire and flew back up to try and stop the human in time.
--Now--
Forge was trying hard to mentally block the rants coming from the Arbiter. Forge looked over at Sam who was trying to get a better angle on the door. Forge smiled at the lieutenant. "He got spirit I'll give him that," Forge said to him self.
"Lieutenant, I'm blowing the core now," Forge said so Sam will know. Sam only nodded his head, still aiming at the door.
Forge walked back over to the control panel ant started the process of blowing the core. Meanwhile Sam saw the door was giving way. He held on the gun as tightly as he could. The door was moving more vigorously. Sam was hoping the core would blow right now, but no dice. The door busted open but to his surprise only two elites came through. One tall and heavily armored
the other looked like a regular fighter pilot. Sam raised his gun but before he could fire a bright light went off... Then nothing...
Forge looked over at the door it looked like it was going to break any second. Forge only had one more wire to connect when the door broke down. Forge looked up to see a very pissed Arbiter and a fighter pilot. Forge looked back at the wire and quickly
put it into place. A bright light came from the core then nothing...
Forge opened his eyes, the only thing he saw was what looked like stars. Forge tried to turn his head but found he couldn't. He couldn't move any part of his body actually. This freaked Forge out a little. Forge felt this way for what felt like hours but was probably about ten minutes. Forge felt something tug at him. It felt like when you sit on your arm wrong. That tingling feeling
was all over Forge's body now and Forge was trying not to laugh his guts out. Forge just closed his eyes and hummed a little tune.
After awhile Forge felt like he was falling. Forge opened his eyes only to shut them again because of the sunlight. After the pain stopped he carefully opened his eyes. He was falling, falling slowly. He turned around to see the ground was two feet from his face. Forge was surprised that he hasn't hit the ground yet. Forge tried to put his hand on the ground, but when his hand made contact with the grass whatever was holding him up vanished and he face planted.
"Fuck," Forge said as his nose broke on impact. He sat up instantly and snapped his nose back in place with a loud pop.
Forge then took some grass and stuck it up his nostrils to stop the bleeding. After a minute of pain Forge got up and looked around. He seemed to be in a place much like Earth. The trees were luscious and green. The clouds were white and fluffy.
He could see a lake in the distance. It look clear as glass. Yep, this isn't Earth. Everything is TO perfect. To balanced. To peaceful.
"F-rge -allin- org-e this -s Sam. I r-peat for-e calling forg- " Sam called over the radio.
Forge pressed the radio on his chest, "Sam this is forge I hear you. I repeat I hear you."
"Ah ther- y-o are I just woke up after the explosion w-ere are we?" Sam asked.
"I don't know. Stay their I'll try to get to you," Forge said.
"Roger over and out," Sam said.
"Great now I have to the lieutenant," Forge said to himself, at least it can't get any worse."
--A mile or two away--
The Arbiter woke up in a state of shock not from the blast from the core but the fact that he wasn't dead. The Arbiter looked around and couldn't believe his eyes. A planet that wasn't under Covenant control or completely glassed over. This planets existence felt like filth on the bottom of his foot. "This planet needs to burn," The Arbiter said to himself.
