[color=0072bc]"Get the hell down!"[/color] a marine shouted as he pulled another younger Marine into cover as an explosion nearly ended his life. Vick flinched from the explosion and gritted his teeth as he looked around their bunker. Marines from other positions were forced to fall back to them and now six Marines filled the bunker. Things were getting hotter when another wave of covenant forces arrived. Ammo was low and the group was forced to fire only when they knew they would hit. 

[color=0072bc]"The hell are we supposed to do damn it!?" [/color]another Marine asked as he loaded another magazine into his rifle. Vick wondered the same thing, what were they supposed to do? They were low on ammo, no help was coming and finally they were about to be surrounded. He looked around the bunker to find his answers, but he only found even more confused and scared Marines. Was there anything they could do? Vick lowered his head with dread as more rounds from the covenant flew over his cover. Were they going to die here? 

Just as Vick was close to give up the radio came to life. He snapped his head to it with wide eyes as he heard a voice. He crawled to the radio as the other Marines simply stayed in their cover. He scrambled for the radio and took a deep breath as he listened to the mans instructions. [color=a36209]"Outpost Sierra..." [/color]he muttered to himself and looked around the room. [color=a36209]"Do any of you guys know where that is!?"[/color] he shouted dover the battle. A thin Marine nodded as he flinched from a close plasma shot. 

[color=004b80]"I-I do! I helped escort supplies there!" [/color]Vick and the other Marines felt a bit of relief. Though one of the Marines faltered with a worried expression. 

[color=0072bc]"How are we getting out of here though!? This place is nearly surrounded!" [/color]the thin Marine shook his head and pointed pass the bunkers doors. 

[color=004b80]"We should be able to slip into the forest before the covenant have the chance to overrun us, but we gotta be fast!"[/color] Vick nodded and turned towards the radio. 

[color=a36209]"This is Private Vick Carson from Fire team Jackal of the USNC Marines, we hear ya loud and clear from outpost Charlie and are heading to outpost Sierra! Over!"[/color] looked around the bunker. 

[color=a36209]"Alright Marines, its either wait here to get killed by those ugly bastards, or make a break for it! Which is it gonna be!?" [/color]Vicks fellow Marines were quick to choose as they all readied themselves by the bunkers doors. The thin Marines took a deep breath as readied himself for the run and looked back to the group. 

[color=004b80]"Keep moving no matter what!"[/color] was all he said before bolting out of the bunker and towards the outposts back entrance. Vick and the other Marines were quick to follow. His heart raced, his breathing was heavy and his fear was nearly maddening as he raced towards the forest with his fellow Marines next to him. Rounds flew over their heads and a few explosions nearly got them, but soon enough the Marines were able to reach the forest. Vick burst through the foliage and a sudden laugh escaped him. It was a laughter of relief. The group never halted their sprint and soon enough the others began to join Vick in his laughing fit. They made it, though they were all aware the worse was far from over, they were all overjoyed to have escaped that hell hole. Now the group began to make their way to their new outpost, but unaware of the large covenant force that was currently forming behind them.
