Knight grimaced, and looked down. The rebar had punctured his lower torso, his large intestine dangling out slightly. He moaned, and leaned his head a bit, seeing he was atleast 30 feet off the ground, the burning wreckage of the Pelican below him. As his visor started to spark out, it being linked to his heartbeat, the last thing he thought was "heh.... I didn't die a virgin...."

Bishop came to, laying on her back, her body burnt and cut. She panicked, and remembered what happened with Knight. She tried to stand, but found she couldn't. She looked down, and found the reason. Her legs where broken and bleeding . She started to panic even more, the blood having stopped flowing after  all of it flowed out. She lay down, and looked over at Queen. The poor Alicorn was obviously dead. The minigun of the pelican had broken off, and smashed her chest, her visor red from all the blood she would've coughed up. She whimpered a bit, and tapped her helmet.

"K-king?" She got the respond of something she didn't account for.

"Bishop, I-I ain't gonna be taking for long.... Covies took over the station and slaughtered everyone, I'm hiding in a closet... We didn't complete this mission I guess. Sorry buddy. I called in a Havok-8 gigaton nuke to clear out the city. Maybe you and Rook can AUGGHH!" A scream was heard and then static, as shots were heard from a plasma rifle. Bishop sighed, and sat up.

"Killed by friendly fire huh?" She cried softly, and a hoof touched her shoulder. It was Rook, his armour torn and bloody.

"Come with me." He stated blankly, and picked her up, setting her in a warthog jeep that had survived the crash of the pelican.

"B-but what about?" Rook didn't look at her, but gruffly remarked.

"Their all dead. We're all that's left." Bishop cried a bit, and nodded, as Rook slammed down the gas, and the jeep tore off. The ride was full of panic and suspense, as they passed multiple camps of civilians, all

Trying to stop the jeep with wails and moans.

"Rook we gotta save them!" Bishop yelled, and looked back.

"We can't, this jeep won't hold more people. I wish we could but we can't. Either the flood or the covies or the nuke will kill em." As they smashed through a small covenant blockade and boarded the Tsavo Highway, Bishop curled up and fell asleep.

Knight suddenly woke up again, his helmet sparking and turning on. A small clock readout in front of him showed 2:31 till nuke impact.

"Son of a.." He mumbled, and looked around. The sun had stared to rise, and it gave the city the light of something you would only see in heaven. He smiled, and looked across the skyline, and saw his saviour. A Phantom dropship was flying low enough for him to board it. He pushed back, and winced as the rebar pulled out of him. As the dropship

Passed Into view, Knight grinned. It was full of engineers. Those things were harmless. He grunted and shoved off the bar, flailing his arms as he landed in the troop bay, nearly sliding off it. He gripped the edge with all his strength, and pulled himself up. He snuck into the cockpit, and saw a grunt driving it. He grabbed a plasma wrench off the floor, and hit the grunt as hard as he could with it. He pushed the body out, and sat down, trying to figure out how to fly the ship." Maybe I should read the instructions..." He mumbled, and suddenly the ship bucked, and started to fly straight towards the ground. Instantly an engineer woke up, and flew over to Knight, and took control of this ship. Knight smiled, and said "take me to Tsavo Highway." The engineer just grunted, and drove the ship along.
