The Halo Thread of Inebitable D00m.

[Kid Game]

Kid and the covenant watched as DaBomb tried to escape.

After him! Get all the ghosts and vehicles and fly after him. I want him dead and his head on a silver platter! Now come my covenant friends lets go hunt him down. The hunt is always much more fun when the prey tries to escape. kid cried out

The covenant troops got in whatever ships and vehicles were around. Most got in dropships which were called in. The dropships were armed with heavy plasma turrets and each had around 25 covenant in them. Whatever covenant didnt go in the 50 (well slightly less) or so dropships got in Ghosts or Warthogs and drove off in search of DaBomb who ran off.

Suddenly they stopped at the edge of the woods having it surrounded on all sides. A covenant elite came up to kid looking worried.

Covenant Elite 1- Kidgame we cant go in there after him. Thats the forbidden forest. Noone enters there alone.

Kid- Were not alone. We can easily overtake and kill DaBomb. One person alone cant cause any trouble.

Covenant Elite 1- True but thats the forbidden forest. Anyone who enters is never heard from or seen ever again. Even if we go in there we will certainly die before we can leave. There are all sorts of evil creatures in there that will tear anyone to shreds in less then a second. We wont all survive theres too many creatures in there.

Kid- Ok but even with all our guns we still cant kill whatever is in there? I mean cant we just fly over and if we see DaBomb have the auto turrets shoot him or lean out the window and shoot. We dont have to physically step foot in there.

Covenant Elite 1- No that is not possible. The forbidden Forest is a dead zone to anything above it in the sky or anything underneath it. If you go underground youll get eaten by some monsters and if you try to fly above then the vehicle malfunctions and the engine fails and you fall crash and die and if you survive the creatures get you.

Kid- You dont have any technology that can overcome this problem? Isn't there anything we can do? Anything at all to go in there?

Covenant Elite 1- No. Weve tried countless amounts of ways to overcome this but all of our aerial efforts hav been in vain. We have lost lots of brave covenant warriors and expensive flying vehicles. Even if we walk in there a little ways we will still die from those creatures.

Kid- Then what do you propose that we do?

Covenant Elite 1- Well since we have this forest surrounded on all sides with dropships of covenant elite warriors, I say we just wait. DaBomb will probably just die from whatever is in there anyways. If DaBomb is lucky, and I mean extremely lucky, he might survive and if he somehow gets out we will all be ready to kill him. So we must wait outside in this safety zone if we want to kill him.

Kid- Well if waiting is our only option then I guess we all have to setup camp out here and wait. If DaBomb gets lucky and escapes we kill him. If he isnt out within a day or so then he's probably dead.

[DaBomb]

DB was far through the forest on his speedy ghost, and fortunately he found no Covenant on his tail. He blamed their abscence on cowardice, and continued on.

Suddenly, his engine failed, the steering controls froze and DB ploughed into a nearby tree. When he woke, there was a dent in his master-chief helmet and the ghost was a crumpled mess. He salvaged his weapons, and walked on.

He heard something behind him. He spun around, only to hear a twig snap to his right. He turned again, but saw nothing. He heard hissing, whirled around, and found nothing, again. He fired a clip of assault rifle bullets in all directions, hoping to deter enemies, but found only a splatter of blood on the ground.

Suddenly a distorted, malformed creature descended from the trees, and slashed DB with a mighty claw. The latter fell back in shock, dropping his rocket launcher, but managed to subdue the enemy with a clip of assault rifle.

He heard more rustling, all around him. They were everywhere. DB used the cloak immediately, making him invisible, grabbed the rocket launcher, and ran, firing his assault rifle in bursts to hopefully scare off his enemies. Thanks to the cloak, he managed to make his way out of the forest, onlt to be met by hundreds of Covenant.

He fired every rocket he had into the pack, and sprayed bullets in every direction, only to be overwhelming by bolts of plasma.

[Kid Game]

It was a miracle. Somehow DaBomb had entered the forbidden forest and escaped alive. Althouh he wouldnt be alive for long. He got out of the forest and was met but covenant. Everywheres.

DB fired rockets at the covenant troops but it seemed that how many every troops DB killed the covenant seemed to get replaced 2 for every 1 killed. Eventually DaBomb ran out of rockets and started firing assault rifle bullets but it had less of an effect on most of the covenant who were wearing armor. Some covenant did die from DBs attack but most of them kept coming at them firing plasma guns.

Eventually one covenant elite soldier came up to DaBomb and hit him with the butt end of a shotgun which knocked out DB. The covenant then used some kind of energy net and put DaBomb in it then tossed him in the back of a warthog that had no gun on back.

Kid smiled. DaBomb was captured alive and was being taken back to a base somewheres for questioning.

[DaBomb]

The base was more of an encampment than anything. There were no plasma turrets or mines, but it was very well guarded by the always competant Covenant. Inside the compound, which was surrounded by a metal wire fence, were multiple small vehicles, and several banshees waiting to be operated.

But the Covenant had one weakness: the flood. The malformed creatures had apparently resided in the Forbidden Forest, and would hopefully come to DB's aid. If not, he would have to be a prisoner until he died.

[Kid Game]

But the flood wouldn't come after DaBomb. The flood were not allies with DB. Even if they did come after DB it would be to kill him not to rescue him. The base didn't have any turrets or mines but that wasn't needed. There were hundreds of covenant ready to do battle with any enemies that approached.

Kid walked out of his office and went to the prison cell where DaBomb was being held. He began an interrogation. He wanted answers from DB.

Unbeknownst to both Kid and DB, A small group of military humans that were friends of DaBombs were on the way. They somehow found out that kid had captured DB. The group was going after Kids base with a group of 15 Warthogs and 5 Scorpion tanks as well as 100 Soldiers. They were intent on getting DaBomb back.

[DaBomb]

As soon as kid stepped into the prison cell, there were multiple massive explosions that smashed through the Covenant camp. The detention centre had been transformed into a mass of rubble, and the air filled with choking dust. More explosions ripped through the facility, destroying the majority of the Covenant vehicles.

DB found his Covenant guard dead, and kid unconscious. He reached for the keys to his bounds, and managed to unlock them within a minute or so. He stepped up, stole the Needler from the Covenant guard, and blasted down a nearby grunt. He heard rustling behind, and saw kid groping up. DB ran off, beating the grunts out of his way and spraying the elites with needler fire.

[SeriousSamIsBack]

Kid woke up groggily and looked around. He swore upon seing DaBomb was gone. He heard gunfire outside and guessed that DaBomb had found a weapon or two and was using them to kill his covenant guards who were somehow getting mauled by DB. The explosions were also perplexing. What caused them? There were no explosives kept in kid's small base. Kid grabbed his assault rifle and stepped outside.

Serious Sam was the leader of the attack group. DaBomb was Sam's best friend. When he heard that kidgame was holding DB as a hostage there was going to be hell to pay. Sam just stood there watching as around 100 or so of his elite human soldiers mowed down the covenant with assault rifle fire. Occasionally a demolition man would step up and fire a rocket or two to cut back on the covenant defending kid's base. Suddenly sam heard assault rifle fire. He looked in the distance with his binoculars and spotted DaBomb killing several elite covenant with a needler. DaBomb spotted Sam and waved and ran over to him.

Suddenly more covenant burst out of a nearby building and aimed their needlers but sadly they were mowed down by the vast amounts of assault rifle fire and were finished when a rocket impacted into the building. DaBomb ran over to his friend sam and got into the warthog's passenger side.

DaBomb- Hey sam what the hell are you doing here?

Sam- Well I heard you were captured by kidgame. I had to rescue you before you divulged any information at all to him. We can't have you leaking info out.

DaBomb- I wasn't. In fact he was just about to interrogate me when you showed up. I knocked him out with a punch but by now he's back up looking for me. Let's go now before he finds us. He's tougher then you think.

Sam- I'd prefer to kill him now but as you wish. We can always kill him later. Anyways the important thing is that you are safe. Let's head back to our secret headquarters where kid will never find us. We need to discuss a battle strategy.

DaBomb- Battle strategy? Against kidgame? Why? He only has one base. We just get some soldiers and storm it and blow up the base. Plain and simple.

Sam- No. Kid has more then one base. That one was more of an outpost and is actually a decoy to remove attention from his real bases which are impossible to penetrate. He has the covenant on his side so it will be hard. Let's not worry right now. When we get back to base we'll have lunch and then go in the war room and discuss strategies for beating this kidgame and the covenant. And the flood as well. They are a major weakness of the covenant but they can't be reasoned with. They will mercilessly attack humans as well. But no worries let's get out of here.

Sam motioned to the rest of the army and everyone got in their warthogs or into one of the troop transport vehicles and headed back to base with serious sam's warthog leading the way.

[DaBomb]

As the escaped from the small outpost, Kid's banshees and ghosts poured out from the base, intent on reclaiming the prisoner and killing all who had attacked them. Hot plasma bolts rained from the Ghosts upon the Warthogs below, while the banshees used their fuel rod cannons to weaken the scorpion tanks considerably.

While DB drove, avoiding any fire that came his way, Sam clambered over to the rear machine gun, and commenced firing at the aerial persuers. One ghost fell from the sky and collapsed upon a Warthog, while another span out of control and landed upon several Covenant, who were following their foes. DB fired several blind pistol shots while driving, fortunately taking down a banshee with a pinpoint headshot. Soon the persuers had been destroyed, thanks largely to the collective firing from the Warthogs, but also to the tank cannons, which had blasted their enemies from the sky.

Within 3 hours they reached Sam's base, and immediately poured inside, awaiting an attack. The base was surrounded by a minefield; in the eventuality that Kid's forces worked their way across these mines, a thick metal wall stood surrounding the facility, and another wall after that. Marines in fixed gun turrets scanned the horizon, while Scorpion tanks guarded the perimeter, and a detail of dropships lay waiting only a few miles from the base, waiting for orders. Sam walked DB to the war room, where they began to plot.

[DuelMaster]

But they hadn't thought about DuelMaster who happened to be a rogue and was neutral to the war. His objective was to simply kill anything that moved. Of course he had a huge army of soldiers at least 1,200 at his disposal as well as 300 warthogs, 100 tanks, 50 banshees, 50 ghosts and 50 wraiths.

He had a spy in Sams army and the spy had phoned DM saying that he had brought someone named DaBomb back to the base and they were making war plans. The spy didn't know what kind of war plans but said that it might be dangerous. The great DuelMaster didn't want any risks of Sam and this "DB" to plot war against Duelmaster who had a base that was around 10 miles from sam's base. He had other bases nearby too which had thousands of soldiers and vehicles ready to attack at his command. But his closest base was 10 miles from Serious Sams base. He rallied up his army and they began off towards Sam's base in an attempt to catch them off guard and destroy the base before sam and DB could plot against him.

DuelMaster was also notified that Sam's base was protected by a big minefield so he prepared by giving some soldiers mine sweepers so they could detect and disable the mines. He was also informed of a giant stone wall and for this he prepared by giving some soldiers a bunch of rocket launchers so they could blow up the walls and then blow up the base. It was time to attack.

[DaBomb]

Scorpion tank shells spashed through the first wall of the facility, sending rubble and scrap metal onto the soldiers below. They continued to fire as they neared, while behind many Warthogs waited, under the cover of the tanks. Banshees screamed through the air, setting the base alight with its cannon. Sam ordered all his aerial vehicles to begin attacking DM's forces, while he told his troops to fire rockets at the attackers.

[Kid Game]

DM's army was pretty good though. Despite taking a reasonable loss of troops and a few vehicles, they continued moving forward. His soldiers fired their weapons at any Sam troops ahead while the tanks fired cannon shots at the wall which continued to crumble and kill several soldiers. The ghosts and banshees were flying through the air taking potshots at Sam's troops killing a good amount but most were being taken down rather quick, but several of the ghost and banshee's fell down onto Serious Sam's base damaging it as well as killing off a few soldiers as well. Meanwhile the hoard of Warthogs fired an almost continuous stream of machine gun fire at the soldiers in the distance.

Suddenly several explosions happened rather quick catching a few of DuelMaster's soldiers off guard. Looking around he noticed that they had reached the mine field and that some of his soldiers had triggered the mines, killing themselves.

"We've hit the minefield! Get the minesweepers up front now and disarm those mines. We can't afford to lost any more soldiers." DuelMaster cried out.

The soldiers with the minesweepers ran forward and promptly began scanning the ground for mines and disarming them when they found any. Of course the battle still raged on with DM's army doing it's best to advance on Sam's base while sam tried to stop the attack. Neither side could really tell but DuelMaster's army was slowly winning and coming closer. It was only a matter of time now.

[DaBomb]

Sam and DB began firing a steam of assault rifle bullets at the minesweepers, killing several. Some of their bullets hit the mines, too, blowing up the mine and anyone nearby. Because the minesweepers seldom fired a shot at Sam's men, they were killed very quickly, before they could do much to herlp the battle. Unfortunately, they managed to carve out a thin path, where tanks and warthogs could move freely though toward the base. Sam ordered for all his rockets to be aimed at that area, and for all greanes to be thrown in that vicinity.

There was a sudden explosion, and when the smoke cleared DB saw a gaping hole in the fort's wall. He and several other soldiers dashed to that area and began firing at the aggressors.

[Kid Game]

Kid's army had finally punctered a hole in the thick walls of Sams base. The minesweepers had managed to do their job of clearing out most of the mines. The explosions also helped to detonate more mines at the cost of killing several of kid's soldiers. Kid ordered his scorpion tanks and warthogs to drive forward through the minefield at full speed. The scorpion tanks continued to fire their turrets at the wall which continued to crumble. Sam's soldiers were dying at a steady pace due to the mass amounts of explosions. The warthogs sped forward riddling more of sams troops with bullets. So far the attack was going to plan. Any minute now kid would break through Sam's defenses and pick apart at the base from the inside.

[DaBomb]

Everyone of Sam's wall, and on the guard towers, were firing at the thin path which Kid was using to move his scorpions. Several snipers were picking off the exposed troops on the tanks, while those with grenades and rocket launchers aimed for the tank themselves. DB picked up a plasma grenade from a body of a dead soldier and hurled it through the hole at the nearest tank. The grenade stuck to the driver, who blew up shortly after.

Meanwhile, Sam was mobilizing his banshees and tanks, to repel the threat. 16 banshees took off, and began pummeling Kid's ground forces, while the tanks waited for Kid's forces to break through.

[Kid Game]

Kid kept pressing the attack and Sam kept pressing onwards with the defense. The battle was taking a very long time and kid was beginning to wonder if he would ever break into the base. He lost another scorpion tank. The remaining tanks fired another volley at the wall segments which destroyed another portion of sam's wall, as well as a tower which held some snipers. The snipers tower fell on several of Sam's soldiers which died instantly on the impact.

Suddenly kid saw DuelMasters army on the other side of Sams base. While kid was mounting a frontal assault distracting most of Sam's troops, DM was flanking the base from the rear. Only a small portion of the base defenders were attacking Sam. The rest were worried about kid. Suddenly an alarm went off and an automated voice warned of a flanking attack. Sam swore and threw the books and papers off his desk. He cursed as now kids army was knocking on the front door, DuelMasters army at the back door.

Sam's military advisor rushed in the room and began to say that there were not enough troops to deal with both armies. If they worried about kid then DM would break in the back and demolish the base from the inside. He also said that if they split up the force and took some of the defenders off of kid and put them on DM, that Kidgame would eventually overrun the frontal defenders and break in. Sam began to worry. What would he do when there were two armies attacking him from both sides? He yelled for DaBomb to come into his office. Within seconds DB was standing in front of Sam, ready to give some advice.

[DaBomb]

DB hurried inside, carrying an assault rifle, and found books and papers littering the ground, Sam was red in the face and rather angry. He informed DB that DM was attacking from behind, and that there were not enough troops in the base to repel both attacks. Neither DB nor himself had any idea of how to deal with the situation, so they reloaded their weapons and went onto the battlefield to help out. Sam tried to think of a plan while he operated a mounted turret and fired upon DM, while DB killed off the driver of one tank, leaped inside, and began to fire at the opposing forces.

[Kid Game]

By this time kid had lost about 25% of his troops. Sam lost 40% of his troops and DM had lost only 30% of his troops.

Kid wasn't really worrying about the numbers. If he did then the strategy would fail and he would lose the battle. He kept fighting onwards, having his tanks fire another volley of shells. This time they impacted against a big section of wall. The whole wall shook and a section of the wall fell right down and turned into dust and rubble. Kid saw this and ordered some of his warthogs to try and get inside the base and unload his troops.

[SeriousSamIsBack]

Sam was angry and frustrated. He was being attacked by two directions. He had enough soldiers to repel one army, BUT not nearly enough to hold off both armies.

On one front was kidgames army, which had picked apart some of the wall with scorpion shells. His minesweepers found a path through the mines. Worse, several groups of kidgame soldiers made it past the wall and began shooting at sams soldiers. This is when he called his scorpion tanks and banshees to attack the enemy troops. He also ordered a group of footsoldiers to grab rocket launchers and blast the groups of enemy soldiers.

Kid's army was the biggest but DuelMasters army was smaller but was still putting up a fight. Luckily DM had not busted down Sams wall- YET. Sam activated the 10 plasma turrets on the rear of the base and had them immediately commence firing at DM's soldiers. He had also sent several tanks and banshees to combat them.

His main focus though was on Kid's stronger, much bigger, army. However he did not want DM to break in through the rear. He had adaquate defenses but didnt want his base being crippled from the rear.

Then it hit him. He had a base about 3 miles away. If he used his phone he could call the general at the other base and call for reinforcements. Sams second base was under leadership by General Rick Smith. That base had tons of soldiers and if Rick would send over troops then sam could easily crush both Kid and DM.

He got on the phone and immediately dialed Rick Smith. Sam explained what was going on and this shocked rick and angered him. Rick agreed to send over a force of soldiers. This force consisted of:

1000 Foot soldiers and marines. Variety of equipment from Assault Rifles and pistols, up to RPGs and plasma weaponry.
50 Scorpion tanks. With heavily upgraded armor and more powerful shells.
60 Banshees. Modified with improved speed, weapons and slightly better armor.

They were immediately dispatched and within a half hour this force of 1,110 units would be at sams base. Kid and DM won't be expected sam to call for reinforcements so as soon as they arrive they will slaughter the troops attacking his base.

[battlemeister]

It had been a while but BM finally found where the battle had gone off to. It was no loner near the field or bunkers it had been to.

BM had used his radio to call for backup and someone answered. It was his old friend "Grizzly", who had a base nearby. He sent for a warthog to pick him up and a little while later BM was at Grizzlys base.

It was a rather impressive base. It had big walls all around that were pretty thick and hard to get into. Near the front gate were numerous guardtowers and the guards inside had the latest in high tech sniper rifles. Also guarding the base were numerous turrets and plasma guns, not to mention hundreds of troops on patrol.

The warthog drove in the base and as BM got out he saw Grizzly. However he also noticed things were in a hurry around the base. After talking with Grizzly he found out that there was an attack going on a few miles south of here.

Apparently Kidgames troops were trying to get into a base where DaBomb was supposedly holed up. That bases defenses were doing well but the wall had been cracked and kids troops advancing. Grizzly had planned to send a big group of Warthogs, Scorpion tanks, Ghosts, and Banshees to help out Kid.

After more talking BM found out that Grizzly was a valuable ally with kid. Kid had lost a good portion of his army and Grizzly was close by so he radioed kid saying backup was on the way.

There were no footsoldiers - all the soldiers going were loaded onto the various vehicles going. There were also a few Modified Troop Transports filled with tons of highly trained soldiers. Grizzly got in the driver side of a scorpion tank (which had been heavily modified and was much faster, had nitrous, a good deal of armor, and of course the classic machine gun turret and tank turret). BM opted to man the tanks main gun.

Grizzly gave the signal and the army was off. BM has been in a scorpion tank before and they were extremely slow. Much to his surprise this particular one was pretty fast and was keeping up with the warthogs and aerial vehicles. He looked around and saw the other tanks in close proximity as well.

About 30 minutes later they arrived at the base that was under siege by kidgame. Kids forces had taken significant losses but that was replaced now that Grizzly and Battlemeister were there to help. BM saw a group of soldiers aiming rocket launchers who began to aim at the tank.......but the Tanks main turret was already aimed at the soldiers and BM was faster on the draw. He slammed his fist onto the fire button and the tank shot off a shell which blew the rocket troops to smithereens.

[Kid Game]

The battle was still raging on, and neither side was backing down. Kid had now lost 37% of his troops, Sam had lost 50%, and Duelmaster had lost 39%. Things were going quite well for kid. Suddenly, a group of rocket troops came out of a bunker in Sam's base. Upon spotting kidgame's attackers, they fired several volleys of rockets, taking out a good portion of his troops. Unfortunately, this attack had brought kid's losses to 52%.

Off in the distance were rather large dust clouds. Whatever it was, it was fast approaching. Looking closer, kid realised it was his partner, Grizzly, who had sent reinforcements to attack Serious sams base. On the ground level, were Grizzly's Warthog jeeps and Scorpion tanks. In the air, was a rather impressive grouping of Ghosts and Banshees.

The arrival of these troops were still a few minutes away. Luckily though, it was just what kidgame needed to turn this battle in his favor. He just had to hold on a bit longer, and then he could hopefully level off Sam's base.
