Kinetic Bombardment

Gabe Rogers

Introduction:

Characters’ story:

Z-199(Captain Harlock):
Although his real name is Gabe Rogers, the main character still likes to be called Harlock. The way he got this name, Harlock, was because he was the first captain who disappeared before Gabe went into the UNSC. He acted much like him in many ways. But also, he was so different. After he created the plasma bolt (an energy sword that has a Spartan laser), the real Harlock had his own sword that shoots, and the name stuck.

X-132(Ivan):
Ivan, Gabe’s friend from ten years ago, helps him on a great, perilous, mission. Four years later they meet again. Will something new happen? If so, what?

N-134(Kenny):
Like Ivan, Kenny is Gabe’s best friend. He met Kenny in 3rd grade, but he may or may not ruin their chance?

Wheatley:
Harlock’s slightly defective core (a flying drone) from aperture science that he saved from being incinerated and helps him and sees a not-so-nice friend he wished was gone forever.

Krystal fuller Z-120:
This is z-119’s (Gabe’s) mother. She is very nice and very funny and a serious military officer.

Z-1500(senz):
Ivan’s droid that’s like Wheatley but from a totally different place.

Pvt. Miller:
Like Conner he is placed on a mission to recover Conner, but then he gets himself caught, and finds out he’s perfectly fine.

Galados:
The one thing that you will absolutely hate, Galados, the tester. To sum it all up, she’s from aperture science testing facility.

Flood:
Zombies. The flood has an interesting backstory created by the flood Grave-Mind
Sgt. Rogers: You may be thinking that it’s Gabe, but he’s a captain, not a sergeant. Well, it’s his father, Robert T. Rogers. who had quit out of the UNSC, and his armor was passed down to Captain Rogers.

Grave mind:
The creator of the flood. He has a backstory that no one knows except for him, but if we find his back story, it will be classified depending on your clearance level.

James Conner:
Or known as Pvt. Conner was sent on a recon via satellite mission for the UNSC group recon omega 16 and goes MIA.

Part I:

I watched as the sea’s calm waves moved back and forth as if waving good bye. I’m unwillingly leaving to a city called New York. I am 20 years old today, brown hair and and I’m American and with my armor on. You can’t tell who I am unless you were with me four years ago. My leg and back are still damaged. When I reach New York I have no idea of what I’m going to do so, I’ll go along with whatever comes along.

I arrive at about 5:30 am, so I have a lot of time to get things done. The first person I saw was Ivan, a friend that I met ten or eleven years ago. He’s older than me with dark hair, and he is Hispanic. I met him when I was moving all of my stuff to the cab I called. I accidentally bumped into him. When we saw each other, we both rejoiced.

“I didn’t see you on the plane,” we both said at the same time.
“I thought you were never going to move,” he said.
“Well, I’ve changed my mind,” I replied sarcastically.
“Wait, you’re being forced to move aren’t you?”
“Yeah, I really hate this.”
“If you don’t have a house… you could stay with me, if you want, of course”
“I’m good, but thanks anyway. Oh! I almost forgot, can you help me with my bags?”
“Sure” he replied.
We both whistled and his sentinel (a military -grade battle drone) and my core (an orb-type robot) came out of their bags.
“Sir, what may I do for you?” they both said. “Help us with our bags, and locate the place I am to stay at, but before that I would like to introduce you to someone. Ivan, meet sentinel or Senz as i like to call him.”
“Hello,” I said

“And this is my core, Wheatley. Wheatley could you pull up my data records,” I said.
“Sir, I seem to have lost some memory, but I still can pull up your data records,” Wheatley said.
“So, that’s why they called you defective,” I muttered a little too loudly “Hey I heard that.” “Sorry.”
“Senz, Wheatley, get to work when we finish with our bags, I’ll tell you the whole thing.”
