He Never Saw It Coming...

He never saw it coming. The stinger slashed at the air momentarily before stabbing the scout in the back. It wasn’t the sight of the injured scout that alerted them, it was the scream. A single inhuman note, that seemed to pierce the very fabric of time. “Damn.” Muttered Tac. He had always known that the creature would only come up to attack but he still felt sick when he had sacrificed the boy. “Alright troops you know the drill!” Tac barked various order at the five Havoc Elites who assumed their positions around the screaming scout. Seconds had passed before a tentacle erupted from the ground, followed by a second, then a third. Before long the sky was full of slimy tentacles flailing and slashing the air, hungry for flesh and blood. “Hurry up with those auto cannons!” Ordered Tac before loading his pistol, this was going to be a long night. “Here it comes!” Yelled a Havoc Elite. It started when six white teeth started surrounding the scout, followed by two claws coming up on either side of the shield of tentacles. Then the top of its back started to protrude the rocky surface followed by a tail, which had appear nearly on top of a Havoc Elite. It was feasting time. The beast reared up its ugly head and violently feasted on the bleeding scout. “Go go go!” With its venerable body now above ground the team could strike. Streams of fire buried itself into the underbelly of the beast as the team opened fire. Vlad charged towards the beast his blaster coughing bullets into tentacle that strayed to close to him. The stinger slashed at the air momentarily before stabbing Vlad in the back. He screamed out in agony before drawing his knife. He slashed hopelessly behind him in a desperate attempt to hit the stinger. He breathed a sigh of relief as he hit home, this was short lived as he saw the stinger sticking out his stomach. His vision was now clouded, he know he was going to die, but he was going to die fighting. He screamed a gurgled battled cry before sprinting toward the creature. Bullets relentlessly ploughed down tentacles, knifes elegantly parried spikes, Vlad was not dead yet. With one final leap he jumped into the void that was the creature’s mouth. A young Havoc Elite stared in awe before being squeezed to death by a tentacle. With two men down the Elites were losing badly. Jok was being sliced to death by numerous tentacles as he tried to reload a plasma cannon. His finger on the trigger he fired it at the beast before a spike emerged from his throat. His shot hit home but hardly made a mark. “Sir! The beast’s too strong, there’s no way we can kill it!” Bellowed Sert. Tac weighed up the options before calling the mission off. “Grab the auto cannons and get out of here!” Ordered Tac. “Affirmative!” Called Sert. He unhooked the auto cannon before getting thrown up into the air and landing in the creatures mouth. It roared with triumph before firing at the remaining two Elites. “What the-“ Tac’s sentence was cut short as Vlad shot his way out of the beast. It roared once more before falling onto the penultimate Elite. Tac looked at the slimy Elite in awe before Vlad collapsed into a pool of his own blood…


(Sorry for lack of detail on the baseplate, I ran out of plates!)

Well... It was gruesome... Not much else I could say.

That was just the first part of the story.
Later on there is a huge battle between 24 Elites and 3 of those beasts, and I can assure you there will be blood.

Nice MOC Tac, I like the use of the droid arms.

darn you and your army of Master Chiefs! I love the UNSC marine, too.

Are you really, really, really sure you don't want to sell/trade me just 1 of your Chiefs?

Hmm... Someone seems to have a lot of :droid:s.

I would have given them all to you for free, but since you don't like Lego anymore...

I'll gladly have them !

Seriously, this is awesome!

But think that's gory? Wait until you see the things I can conjure up with my sick mind .

I do, that was just a joke!
But I suppose yours is too.

*Crosses fingers that it wasn't a joke*

Unfortunately I need them to continue the story...

So, is this meant to be Halo?

All of them? Pleeeeeeaseeeeee....

Yeah Tac. I mean, how many Chiefs do you need?

Aki, this isn't Halo, just something random I made up.

Ah. I thought as much. To avoid confusion, I would change them a bit.

Don't worry I'll put stickers on them.

I am not a Master Chief!

Ah, do you make them yourself?

Or you could do it the easy way and use sharpie to do highlights. Yeah, try that! Black and olive green will look nice together.

DarthPineapple wrote:Ah, do you make them yourself?

I will start writing the second bit tomorrow and might make the MOC before Sunday.

Nice Tac!

The MOC reminds me alot of the black fantasy stuff... except its not so dark..

I just ordered some plates from PAB so hopefully I can updated this with a better baseplate and a better story...

I really like it. It looks like one of the Transformer scenes. I have one question...... where do you get the Halo Spartan guys?

Brickforge.com, if I'm not mistaken.
