M.S.G.W.:Road Trip From Hell
Chapter 4

Halo

When the Pillar of Autumn comes out of subspace, the gundam pilots found themselves near a desert planet about the size of Earth, and in orbit around the planet was a huge ring. On the inner side of the ring is an Earth like atmosphere with about 10,000 Sq. kilometers of land and water (For all those Halo players, this part of the story is like the game but the six gundam pilots are in it. I thank it will be an interesting twist to Halo, I mean didn’t you ever want a gundam in Halo?). Now you see the PoA (Pillar of Autumn) with the six gundams hanging on to the sides fly by towards Halo.
Keyes, “Cortana, all I need to know is, did we lose them?”
Cortana, “I thank we both know the answer to that.”
Now it shows the interior of the bridge.
Keyes, “We made a blind jump…. How did they….”
Cortana, “Get here first? The Covenant ships have always been faster. As for tracking us all the way from Reach, at light speed my maneuvering options were limited.”
Keyes, “We were running dark, yes?”
Cortana, “ Until we decelerated. No one could have missed the hole we tore in subspace…. They were waiting for us on the far side of the planet.”
Keyes, “So, where do we stand?”
Cortana, “Our fighters are mopping up the last of their Recon picket now, nothing serious. But, I’ve isolated approach signatures from multiple CCS-class battle groups. Make it three capital ships per group. And in about ninety seconds they’ll be all over us.”
Keyes, “Well, that’s it then. Bring the ship back up to Combat Alert Alpha. I want everyone at their station.”
Cortana, “Everyone sir?”
Keyes, “Everyone. And, Cortana…”
Cortana, “Hum?”
Keys, “Let’s give our old friends a warm welcome.”
Cortana, “I’ve already begun.”
Now back with the gundam pilots.
Heero, “Dam, that crash did more damage than I thought. All the subsystems but life-support and Com systems, are down.”
Trowa, “Same here, my gundam is barely operational.”
Duo who just woke up, “Wha… wha… what happened, Where are we?”
Quatre, “What it’s the Pillar of Autumn!?”
Wufei, “Where?”
Quatre, “Were on it.”
The five other gundam pilots exclaimed, “What!!!”
Now in one of the PoA’s hangers.
Cortana over a loudspeaker, “Attention all combat personnel. Please report to your action stations………. Fifth Platoon, secure airlocks on Deck Eleven. Fourteenth Platoon, rendezvous with 22nd Tactical at Bulkhead Charlie 14.”
Sergeant Johnson, “You heard the lady. Move like you got a purpose.”
Cortana over a loudspeaker, “This is not a drill. I repeat, this is not a drill.”
Sergeant Johnson, “Men… Keep your eyes downrange, fingers on your triggers, and we all go home in one piece… Am I right marines?!”
Marines, “Sir yes sir!”
Sergeant Johnson, ”Hum… your dam right I am.”
Several minuets later.
Char, “Look the life-pods are launching.”
Trowa, “looks like there heading for the ring.”
Quatre, “We should do the same thing.”
Duo, “Yea, my gundam has just enough power to get there.”
Heero, “Ok lets go.”
One by one the gundams started off for the ring, Heero being last. By the time it was Heero’s turn, it was seventeen minuets after the first life-pod launched. Thirty seconds after Heero started for the ring the last life-pod launched and it was headed right for Heero, it almost crashed into Heero narrowly missing by 10 feet. Heero separated from the others, decided to follow the last life-pod. Heero crashed vary hard when he landed, some how he managed to land two hundred feet away from the last life-pod.
