It was just a complete mess today. First the locust attack, then he gets stuck on patrol. 'How could this get any worse' he thought before ducking into cover, following the golden rule of combat: keep your head in cover. He reloaded his lancer before firing at the closest abomenation of a creatrue call a locust. He downed the locust before he rushed over to it and used him as a meat shield "Time to be a bullet sponge!" He said as he grin sadisticlly. Oh he loved his job, the feeling of blood splashing against his armor was one of such perks in his mind. He switched to his pistol for easier aim over the locust's shoulder as he fired at the locusts team mates taking two of them before sticking a incendariy grenade to the back of his makeshift meat shield before kicking him, sending him into a crowd of his others. Taking the poor locust and severel others with him in a fiery explosions. The battle was almost over, 'just a few more left' he thought as he roadie runs back into cover, whiping out his gnasher shotgun in place of his lancer and vaulted over cover knocking a locust out of cover himself. The locust was soon turned into a bloody stew of meat and other liquids. Soon there was only one of them left crawling away. Daniel walked over to the heavily bleeding locust before flipping him over and started to punch him in the face repeatedly. He did not notice the bright light. When the light faded the Gear and locust were gone.
