The Last of the Locust

Said I'd wait until summer, but no! You kept asking for it,

Azura

Azura was a place for the most prestigious of the COG, and while they dine on fine meals, other people were left to the hounds. It was a Bunker for the rich and the overpaid. It had this maelstorm generator or something on the island somewhere.

When the Locust captured it, they killed them all, except for Adam Fenix, Locust keep strict tabs on him while he designed the big weapon thing. It's classified info, hush-hush stuff.

Azure was wrapped in a non-stop storm, taking any sunlight from the once beautiful island. Most of the time, Locust just roam around. The chance's of a attack were non-existent, still, they brought them guns and ammo.

On this eternal night, a Mauler, two Drones, and a Theron guard were wandering around a massive labyrinth. One of the Drones held a Mk.2 Lancer in his hands, the other with a powerful Sawed-Off Shotgun. The Theron guard had a Hammerburst I (Classic Hammerburst). The Mauler had a Elite Mauler's shield and a Flail with a big spike on it's head.

Each of there weapons had something special about it, The Lancer had the Crimson Omen painted on it. so does the Hammerbust. The Sawed-Off had been painted Red. The Shield and Flail remained the same.

"Hey, Ron, " one of the Drones said to the other Drone, "You catch that Ticker game last night?"

"Yeah, think i'd miss out on a game?"

"Well, I thought you'd be busy cleaning and huggin' that shottie of yours."

The two Drones continued to talk until the Theron Guard broke in the conversation, "Ryder, Ron. Quit your bickering, We're going to take a left down this hallway and link up with Rae's patrol, then we're heading to the docking area for some upgrades. "

The small patrol linked up with another patrol. A Kantus, Grenadier, and a Butcher made up the patrol. Each member greeted each other in there own ways. The two Drones greeted the Grenadier with a simple "Whats Up?". The Mauler and Butcher clashed there Shield and Cleaver together. The two patrol leaders, The Theron Guard and Kantus, greeted each other with reports on the patrol.

The patrol headed off towards the docking area. Unknown to them, there reckoning was coming to say hello.

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

The patrol headed off towards the Docking Area. Sub's come in daily, carrying food, ammo, guns, and info from the outside. One of the sub's pilot always brought them special gear. Smart Locust always work together.

Few years back, the Grenadier, Ven. Found some old books from a schoolhouse, from that point on, they taught themselves human history and knowledge. There the only Locust to have real friends.

As they arrived at the docking area, there friend, Jeke, stepped off his submarine's ladders.

His Sub was anything new or fancy, but she had a shit ton of storage space and life support, It had 2 Troika Turrets mounted on each side. It's cockpit only seated one, and it was heavily armored.

The combined patrol casually walked to there friend, while they did that, Jeke took out a big medal table and began placing there new gear on it.

The first gear was something real nice, A Booshka Grenade Launcher. It's a COG weapon and the COG's sure know how to made things go boom. The Nade Launcher shoots imulsion-filled projectiles at enemies. It was laid to rest some time ago, but that didn't mean it wasn't good.

Of course, The Mauler. Jueo, took it.

The next piece was another weapon out of service. The GZ18 Sniper Rifle, nicknamed "Markza". it was a semi-auto sniper, it didn't have jaw-dropping damage, but it got the job done from a distance.

The Theron Guard, Bal, took it.

What came up next was another treat, The Scorcher Flamethrower. The Dragon's Breath was what's in everyone's nightmare. It sets it's targets on fire and it burns though any armor. Most users of this are stupid enough to keep a huge pack of the flame on there backs, it was a deadly weapon simple.

The Grenadier, Ven, took it. He didn't take the big fuel tank.

The Mole came up next, The Digger Launcher fires live ammo, which means it use living things as ammo. It Digs under cover to come up on your ass and explode, making your life go boom. It was created by The Savage Armies.

The Butcher, Vels, took it.

Next up was a Classic Weapon, The Gnasher. It's a shot gun, nuff said.

Surprisingly, it landed into the drone, Ryder, hands. Now, he was only using COG weapons.

What came up next surprised all of them, an entire set of armor for a Kantus, untouched and new. It came with two Gorgon SMG's. The plates were made up of Onyx Medal. making the wearer shrug off small arms fire.

The Kantus, Rae, took it with gusto.

A Beatbox, that's what came next, a beatbox. It's speaker were broken and so was the CD holder, but it's cool it have on your shoulder.

Once they had all there new gear strapped on there backs and legs, they went off to patrol again.

A pack of Wretches rushed passed them, one of them jumping over Vels. They all ran towards a Sub named "Something Foul". Many other Drones and other Locust jumped into subs.

Not knowing what was going on. Ven grabbed a Wretch, who was trampled by the Locust, and asked him what was going on.

The Wretch tried to free himself, to this, Ven shook him more. Finally he spoke,

"Delta Come! Run!" The Wretch shouted with his evil sounding voice. Ven Dropped him and together, they all ran back to Jeke ship. They knew who Delta was, every Locust did. most turn and run away when they see them. They're known as the Locust Killers, The Bersekers Ridas, and many other titles.

They all scrambled to get inside, they explained what was going on to Jeke. The Plan was to hide somewhere else, anywhere else.
